Part 2 of the Jack-o'-lanterns!

Hey everybody! Sorry I did not get this one posted before Halloween. Time got away from me. I took Mrs. R to the beach for a week and we just returned. I did find some time during the vacation to do the final editing and so here it is. Hope you find it relaxing:)

Thank you all for your patronage!

Making little jack-o'-lanterns

Hey everybody,

I hope you enjoy this video. I had to break it into two videos, so it may be a week or so before I have the rest of it ready to upload. Thanks for being my patrons:)

A Pre-Halloween Video

Hey everybody,

I hope you like this one:)

Thank you for your patronage!

NEW VIDEO

Hey everybody,

In this video I put to work the Zebra G-450 pen that we opened up in the last video. After I made this video and left the studio, the G-450 went with me out into the real world and it was there that I discovered a major flaw with this beautiful, smooth writing pen. It seems the clip is designed in such a way that you have to work too hard just to clip it into your shirt pocket. I'll discuss it more in a future video.

I hope this video relaxes you and helps you to st...

Pens, Cars, and who knows what else

Hey everybody,

Hope all is well with you, especially to any of you that might have been in the path of hurricane Ian. Sorry I have not been posting videos as often as I would like, as it has been a challenge lately to find time for myself, but, I hope you enjoy this one nevertheless. As always, thank you for being a patron:)

Even Us Older People Still Color

Hey everybody,

Hope this post finds you well. Found a few minutes to unwind with the big box of crayons again. This is only the second picture I have colored from this coloring book and gotta say it's pretty relaxing. I figure I'll color the whole book over time and then shelve it for my grandkids to discover someday.

As always, thank you for your patronage my friends.

Late Night Crossword Puzzle

Hey everybody,

I hope this video finds you well. I slipped out to my studio late at night and worked a crossword puzzle for us. Hope you enjoy watching/listening to it as much as I enjoyed working it. As always, thank you for being a patron; it's not taken for granted:) R

1975 called and said GO TO SLEEP

Hey everybody,

I stumbled upon an interesting website which had a variety of old catalogs that you can look at, and thought I'd share a 1975 Sears catalog with you. Something went wring though when I transferred the recording from my the pc I recorded from, over to the MacBook where I do the post production work. For some reason it scrunched up the screen. I'll try to sort that out the next time I record another catalog from that site.

As always, thank you for being a patron:)

A relaxing Minecraft video!

Normally I would have posted this to my gaming channel but felt like it would be a good fit on my main channel because of the relaxing nature of a lazy river ride. Thank you for supporting this thing that i do:)

Finally got the 64 count box of Crayons!

Hey everybody,

Last Christmas I received some Crayons from my wife believe it or not. I had mentioned to her in the past that I never had the large box of Crayons when I was a chid and I guess she thought she would make it right after all these decades LOL. Well I finally got around to opening the box and do a bit of coloring. Hope you enjoy and thank you for your support of my channel:)

Bike Ride

Hey everybody,

Was able to get in a bike ride recently and recorded some of it. I really enjoy riding this particular trail because there isn't anything technical about it. I quit riding the steep, hard trails years ago and prefer gently rolling trails like this one these days. Hope find this relaxing. Just pretend you are sitting on the handlebars of my bike the way we rode double when I was just a kid. Thank you all for your support of this thing I do.

Vintage Reading

Hey everybody,

Hope you like this video. Audio is a little off. Having a hard time mastering the newest audio gear. May have to backtrack audio wise to where I was a few videos ago and regroup.

Thank you for your patronage:)

Zebra Sarasa Ballpoint Pen

Hey everybody,

Hope all is well with you. This video features a ballpoint pen from Japan that looks like it might be a winner. Made by Zebra, the Sarasa Grand is made of metal and thus has a nice hefty, tactile feel to it. I think I'm going to like it and will give some final thought on it at a later time after I've used it for a few weeks.

On another note; someone left a comment under one of my videos basically saying that all my videos are alike and boring. Perhaps they are righ...

A big box of little cars!

Hey everybody,

Hope you enjoy this video. It may turn out to be a good bedtime video because I kept falling asleep while editing it. Sometime in the future I'd like to do this again using the better cars from my display case.

Thank you for your patronage. It isn't taken for granted.

Got a new rotating stand!

Hey everybody.
Hope this post finds you well. In this video I'll show you a little rotting stand I picked up, and I'll also give my final thoughts on the Jinhao 51A fountain pens. Thanks for your patronage:)

Still Stunned with this low dollar pen

Hey everybody,

I purchased a couple of Jinhao 51A fountain pens and I have to say that they have really surprised me. They look great and write as good, or even better in most cases, than any pen I've ever used. I have been using them a lot lately and will report back at a later time with my final thoughts. I hope you enjoy this video. Oh, and I'll be changing the thumbnail to include the owl.

Concerning the audio...I'm still tweaking and this will be by bo means as good as it get...

The Beach

Hey everybody,

I thought I'd slip in this short video about the beach. This footage is from last year and has been sitting on my computer for a while so thought I'd do something useful with it before removing it to make space for larger projects. As always, I appreciate your patronage so much:)

Cars, Baseball, and Pens ASMR

Hello everybody,

I hope this post finds you well wherever you might be in this crazy world and wherever you might be in your own life. Whatever your circumstances, I hope that you can step back and relax a little with this video.

I've been really busy lately as some health issues my dear wife is having, has really been demanding much from me. I did find some time to sit down at my desk for a little rest and relaxation and video recorded my goofing off for your own relaxation.

This or That and new equipment

Hey everybody,

Hope you are well. In this video I add another installment to the "This or That series. What makes this video a bit different is the fact that I am using a new piece of equipment to make it. I have added a microphone preamp that is a full-featured Channel Strip Processor! This is supposed to give me studio-quality audio. I took the device out of the box and with not much experimentation, I went ahead and made this video to test it. This was a "first run" and over time I w...

Nice Knock-off of a great pen

Hey everybody,

Hope you enjoy this video!

Rainy Night Drive

Hey everybody,

Hope you are all doing well. It's been so cold lately...can't with for warmer weather so I can get back on the bike (bicycle that is, my motorcycle days are behind me now lol).

One of the better performing videos on my channel is a rainy night driving video. I was actually surprised that it was so well accepted considering that I didn't think it was that good. This video was an attempt at doing a better job with that sort of video. Link below will take you to the ol...

Time to get rid of some watches?

Hey everybody,

I have accumulated a fair amount of watches over the years. Not really sure why I hang onto some of them other than they are interesting in their own way. Hope you enjoy this:)

An update on my home aquarium

Hey everybody,

By popular request, I mad this update video on my home aquarium. Amazingly it's still going strong after all these years.

Next video up will be looking at a bunch of watches I have accumulated over the decades. I'm not much of a watch guy so please don't be thinking I have a bunch of really nice watches because I don't. They are just run-of-the-mill watches and in the video I put fresh batteries in a few of them. The video has been recorded and will be going into po...

I fixed my car

Hey everybody,

I hope you all had a nice Christmas and hopefully Santa brought you something special. I didn't get the Montblanc 149 fountain pen but I'm ok with that LOL. I should take the money I saved doing this car repair and start a special piggy bank just for that pen!

Some of you may have noticed that I made public again, the Gold Thief video. Years ago my special guest had requested I take it down for professional reasons and she recently said it was fine to put it up agai...

Let's Finish the last half of that catalog

Hey everybody,

Tis the season and I hope you are not feeling overwhelmed by everything that goes along with it. I only say that because it's normal, after all, December is easily one of the busiest months for most people.

Our tree is up and though I was initially worried our new cat would tip it over, she seemed to have gotten over the novelty after only an hour. Out of caution though, we decided not to put ornaments on it this year. Thanks to the little colored lights, it's still...

RC Plane Flight Simulator ASMR?

Hey everybody,

I installed my RC flight simulator software on the gaming pc recently and decided to upload a quick video that demonstrates just how bad a radio control pilot I am. Any future installments of these flight videos will be uploaded to my gaming channel, but for the sake of variety on my main channel I thought I'd post this first one there. I imagine I'll be able to make these a bit more relaxing as I figure it all out so forgive me on this initial effort.

Part two of t...

This turned out to be a pretty good ballpoint pen!

Hey everybody,

Grabbed this pen off the rack in a Target store when I needed a pen to cross items off the shopping list my wife had sent with me. Turns out it isn't a half-bad pen. Hope you like the video.

I also have recorded the 2nd half of the Stoneberry catalog and will post it next once it comes out of post processing.

Recorded a bit of RC Flight simulator play last night and will post it in the future if it turns out ok.

Hope everyone had a relaxing Thanksgiving ...

Time for Christmas Catalogs!

The mail-order catalogs have been hitting the mailbox for a few weeks now and so I thought I'd flip though one to see if anything catches my fancy. You are invited to look over my shoulder as I go from page to page checking out the latest offerings. Let me know what you think and thank you for being a patron:)

Our cat has discovered a fly!

Hey everybody,

I hope you are doing well. I've been working on the latest video and hope to post it here for you to view possibly later this evening or tomorrow. I'm going to slip this 45 second video in front of it though. Most of you probably know that from time to time I'll post a sort of off-topic video in hopes of attracting new viewers to my channel. Gaining exposure on YT is the major obstacle in growing a channel and it's hard to get noticed unless of course you post videos of t...

Picked up a new pen!

Hey everybody!

I picked up another inexpensive fountain pen. It's the top one in the photo. I was truly stunned at how beautiful this pen was when I opened it. I've been using it everyday now for over a week and am quite happy with it. I hope you find the video enjoying. I even threw in a photo of the new cat at the very end just to add about 20 seconds in order for the video to be an hour in duration. Had the poor thing spayed the other day and she's been a little trooper through the o...
