    Watching you work never tires me out! I could sit and watch you make tongs all day. Be safe.

      Since I've been repeating myself with some of these projects of late, I'm glad to know you haven't gotten tired. Much appreciated.

    There’s another “Birdman” in Taipei. Good on you for your attention to the needs of our feathered friends. 🐥🐥🐥

    Always a pleasure to watch professionals do amazing work, meaning both you and the excavator operator. And thanks for taking care of that baby; at least my new ducklings haven't pooped on me yet!

      I'm not sure if it's considered good luck but I've been getting pooped on a lot lately. Biz has picked up so maybe it is good! Thanks.

      @gstongs  Рік тому

      I started feeding these birds some years ago and now there's no stopping. At this time of year, they come by daily and I swear they can spot my bald head when I'm on the street! Thanks for watching.

    Very nice as usual Glen! You'll be glad to know that when you turn the captioning on it interprets the construction/jack hammer noise as applause! We are all cheering for you!

    They look like dragon jaws. Dragon tongs!

      Yes, they do look like that. I named another style "dragon" jaw but I might have to change that. Thanks Jim.

      I'll showcase my mini swage block even more. It's the sort of tool that once I get used to it I can use daily. Thanks for all you've done for the channel robert. By the way, what's your t-shirt size?

      That's a very good question and one I suspect they can't even answer! But I did see them bury an electrical cable so I suspect they are planning to put CCTV cameras (spy cameras!) on the light posts. Thanks.
