    Mic, I've been watching your videos and thoroughly enjoyed it! But you know, sometime you "should" step back away from doing the job and start appreciating the things that Robert has done for you and your lovely wife! Yes, you did sacrifices a lot, money, time, and efforts into this Kona! Hey, I'm hearing impaired myself and I understand your frustration, I've been there! Enjoy the accomplishments, appreciate the help you got in getting the job done! I'm proud of you for doing the 'dream' and didn't make people feel sorry for you! God bless you and your wife!

I have been watching this since day one and its great to see all the work you have done. As for the paint i understand you have been so frustrated with this so missing these small things would happen all u want is for it to be all done and finished. your doing great and keep up the good work.

  • @Porsche951
    @Porsche951 Рік тому +142

    You really need to step back and look at all the help they have been giving you. You’re living rent free in a bus behind the shop. You use his bugs to drive around town and get parts. You take your clothes to their house and use their washer and dryer. You’re using everyone’s tools at the shop. I know you don’t know this but in shops like that mechanics are very protective of the tools they bought with their own money and don’t usually let people use them. Also you’re rebuilding this bus from the ground up. A project like that never ever goes smoothly especially the paint. There has never been a paint job that didn’t have runs or needed to be touched up or wet sanded somewhere. I can only imagine what the owner and everyone at the shop would think if they watch this video. Imagine if they didn’t let you live behind the shop. How much extra would that cost you. Imagine if all the mechanics stopped letting you use their tools. Add up the cost of you going out and buying all the tools it requires to rebuild your bus. I don’t think you realize how much help you have been given and how bad you look with all the complaining.

      He's paying a lot of money. I would be frustrated too, if the paint was crappy. As far as the videos go, they take many hours to edit. I would imagine he has to work and try to fit in time to spend with Lori. Believe it or not, that's more important than trying to spend all your time glued to a computer screen

      @BrokenWrenches 11 місяців тому +2

      i suspect the bus has been done for a long time now, based on the dates of the videos. that means the bus has been gone from roberts shop long before these videos are uploaded. enjoy watching them anyways. i would be pretty annoyed about spending $100 an hour for 2,000 hours or so. there is always issues that crop up during large restoration projects, my full time job. dealing with people can be exceptionally difficult, especially when one party is paying big money for someone else’s services. tempers can flare. if your a viewer who has never been there you wouldn’t understand. i understand all to well.

    We also get that you’re so close to being done that anxiety about the setbacks are frustrating.
    What we’re noticing is the last several episodes have had a lot of negativity towards people who are truly trying to help you. It makes it frustrating to watch and turning many people off of your channel.

    Wow, I was really enjoying watching you rebuild Kona. But now you sound so ungrateful. I know sometimes things can get frustrating but it will get done.

    The paint guy might not care. Crappy paint job is proof and he went on vacation when you needed to chew his as out for shitty work! I'm with you being angry! "DELAYED!" You did give a great listing of companies for parts in the begining of the video. Thank you. They look great. Be a doctor and have some pateince. You will get your chance to chew out the paint guy later. "GET'ER'DONE!" Your doing better than me. I don't even own a VW COMBIE camper van.

    I noticed you didn't put any oil on the nuts and bolts that hold all the bumper parts together. Oil would protect the tread and washers against the elements over the years and prevent rust in the future. And using WD40 to lubricate the locks ? Shouldn't they be oiled aswell ? Oil would last longer. Apart from that it really is coming along. Very much enjoying each stage and the overall progress. It shows where there can be problems along the way. Keep up the excellent work. Nick in the UK.

      It's not WD40, it's white grease, last for a long time :)
