It's great to see your old iron earning it's keep. I really like the narrative style of your videos and appreciate the time and effort you put into presenting them for us.
Don't know about your area, but ground bareing lowboys don't work well in our area. Ground is to soft for anything heavy. Not sure if it was. You have to mush fun.
For your Workshop. I think what you need for Heating. Is a Heater that can Use Waste Oil. So Oil that you change out of the Machines Could also be used to Heat up the Shop.
Great haul! You can NEVER have too much storage. YOU would be crazy to get rid of any of the shipping containers. With ALL of the equipment you own these would make great parts houses. You could really keep a good amount of inventory in them and very organized. Thank YOU for the videos. Happy New Year
Having those containers as a parts storage is a pretty nice addition. Keeps the junk out of the main shop and you could maybe rig it so that you can pop straight from the main shop into these containers, for those frigid days :D
Honestly i was thinking the same thing. Set them up near the main shop or somewhere that puts them in a good position between the main shop and container shop to act as central storage for the both of them. Knowing Matt he will prob fill them up pretty quickly especially if he brings in more autocar parts trucks or something lol
I know it is a tremendous amount of work to do these videos, but I hope you never stop, I love each and every one of them. Thank you for taking the time to do them, they are very informative and entertaining. I also appreciate that you don't try to act silly or be a comedian like we see in so many videos, yours are very easy to watch. Thank you again!
I say keep them all. Use that side pass through design, connect all three side-by-side. Set them all on concrete piers to level all three as one unit. I'd relocate those Vidmar cabinets to the main shop and use the containers as remote/long-term storage space.
I've been slimming down the content I watch on YT as I've sub'd over 200 channels over the years. Your channel will always be in my top ten. Happy New year to you and your family Matt. I hope next year is as good as this year or even better. Thanks for uploading some great content.
@briansd6 I found the same when I first started, so just stopped watching content in my notification. I'm now down to about 50 channels, mostly dealing with mechanics and cars. Channels like Matts that take in old stuff bobody wants or has simply been left to rot. Matt buys this/these items and gets them working. I guess I'm just fascinated seeing stuff work again after so many years.
16:15: I think these "rollers" (I'd rather call them "compactors") are key machinery for road construction, for preparing the ground before the asphalt layers are applied. This one looks like brand new, like really espensive (minimum 45.000$ or so).
Completely unexpected video! As a new subscriber to your channel, I have been catching up on all of your old content and was caught off guard on a new posting so soon. Matt, thank you and have a great New Year.
That's the cool thing about Matt's channel, ya never know what "cool things" he will drag home next. I never thought that Autocar would see the road again, but it runs well, a dustless blaster going over and a coat of paint that truck would look sweet.
I have been going back through old videos, that I thought I had watched already, it is awsome to see the difference in the farm and the impact the hard work you have put in to it has changed it from the beginning.
Just a suggestion, but, why not go ahead and re-assemble the 3 boxes as a warehouse and use that for parts and expensive tool storage? They are much easier to lock up and secure things under a camera system. It also gives you storage outside of your new building to allow work instead of clutter being underfoot.
good thinking. it would be easy to clutter up the permanent structure. over time, clutter has a way of filling up and interfering with premium dry, HVAC cement floor workspace . the boxes are a perfect way to greatly expand the usable space. a key will be to inventory parts and tools on your computer as you assign real locations to them. there are inexpensive programs available of PC and Mac to guide you through the process of laying out your storage area and assigning parts to places. Imagine you were going to sell each tool, piece and part and treat them all that way. It would be easy to lose track of things and end up buying needed things you already have. I do it all the time, and it pisses me off.
Good idea as well.. esp. if someone can figure out any personal info.. you wouldn't want to loose pricey tools/ equipment.. don't underestimate the modern theif. Zip ties $ bias plies had a great setup for putting a shop crain in a conex box
I think he is running out of room for the things "he wants". It would be nice to acquire things when you are ready to set them up an use. I started watching some of his videos on building a pole barn. And got me here with him buying containers for more space! I need to go back and see what he does an what he is trying to do. Maybe he needed a larger pole barn or one with a large loft for storage?
Those containers were a score! I can guarantee that if you get rid of any of them that you’ll kick yourself later, we all know how quickly storage space gets used up lol
I really don't understand why people want those storage containers so bad, the price you pay per square foot of storage space is crazy high, and the way they are laid out, makes it very difficult to get things in and out, like a forty foot long hallway that you are trying to work in/ move around in. IDK
@@jonblakemore6454 Building an actual shed, would suit my needs better, if you need job site storage next day, these containers are hard to beat. But if you take a look at quonset huts or something similar, I feel like the space is much more usable, rather than being divided up into 40ft long hallways.... Your mileage may vary.
I'll bet you'll fill all three of those shipping containers with tools and supplies for your operation, Matt. With all the equipment you have now and as your business grows you'll need that storage space eventually. It will help keep the shop from getting cluttered up with too much stuff. Anyway, that's my opinion and you're welcome to it! 😆 Nice haul my friend! Looking forward to all the great stuff you've got to show us in 2023. Happy New Year!
1971 I was an independent trucker with a lease truck. I broke down in Detroit and had a family emergency in Grand Rapids. Another trucker offered to give me a ride. The tow service had my truck and empty trailer and would haul it back to GR. My guardian angle had an Auto Car with a V12 diesel. Once on the highway he wound that baby up and made a 2 hour 15 minute trip out of a 3 hour trip.
This is one of my favourite trips that u take us along, Just to know the price of machinery out there compared to my neck of the woods is priceless, thanks Matt.
I love the auction videos!!!!!! Those containers are sweet. Can’t wait to see what 2023 brings to the farm!! Can’t wait to see the boxes all put together.
That bandsaw will come in handy more than you think. Pop’s bought a Do-All a few years back for the shop. Can’t imagine life without it now. If you’re able to master the blade welder, please share your secret! Great scores at the auction!
Great way to jump start a Happy New Year Matt! All those containers I thought You were Andrew Camarata getting ready to start another castle build. Keep those Diesel Creek never a dull moment videos coming!
From the UK, "Happy New Year" to you and yours, Matt, and "thank you" for the pleasurable videos that you have worked hard on to bring us all the exciting entertainment.
Nice score, the Powermatic on the West Coast would go for $2000 plus and the grinder $1500 plus. Would love to have both. Those Vidmar cabinets sell for a minimum of $1200 each. Congrats on the auction. Our auctions out here are bringing insane prices. Sometimes more than retail. Go figure. Have a very Happy New Year and all the best to you and yours.
And as you were turning the rig around, was reminded of how much your empire has grown. All fond memories and hopes for the future! Maybe the next thing is a jet boat for the creek...?
This video was recommended and as I watched I realized it was from a year ago. Wow, you have accomplished a lot in a year. Shop, house and a ton more projects. Impressive work Matt.
I say keep all 3 containers of you have the room as you can never have enough storage and having space to store parts of a stripped peice of equipment where it can be layed out neatly is so much nicer than it all having to be pulled up
I was just thinking , I stumbled on your channel way back when you were tearing down a silo and I been hooked ever since. I’ve seen everything you e posted. It’s truly been awesome to see you evolve and grow. I’ve also learned a lot of troubleshooting from you. Thanks Matt !! I ain’t goin nowhere.
Thanks for the Diesel Creek 2022 Adventures Matt, looking forward to the continuation of the adventures in 2023! Wishing all the best in health and happiness, to you, Miss Eva, and the rest of the Diesel Creek family for the new year. Cheers!!
You made a bunch of awesome purchases at the Ritchie Brothers Auction! Thanks for the tour of the inside of the Conex Boxes that you purchased, too. It will be great to see you make use of these purchased items in the near future. Well done, Matt!
So those shipping containers actually we'll come in handy for a lot of different things you can still use them for tool storage or you can take the tool racks and shelving out of Them and use them in your new shop And there is so much more you could do with them too
Thank you Matt. This has been a great year on your channel. Looking forward to another great year in 2023. Definitely on of my favorites! Wishing for you and yours, a great and healthy New Year.
Matt. Hope to see your new shop with geothermal heat and cooling system. You have a lot of land to do that horizontally. It can be amazing to watch how you approach this task. It will definitely get a lot of viewers who think about this method and cannot decide or don’t know how to. Wish you all the best this new year and tons of new subscribers!
Awesome deal on the containers. Either have them all connected together to the shop or in close proximity to your shop and have yourself an office/YT dream Lab/storage area! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Man you’re really an inspiration to me. I always enjoy watching your content, especially watching you methodically figure stuff out. Like unloading the containers, I was just looking forward to seeing how you’d figure that out! Also, not an operator if any kind but I thought it was impressive how you snagged that corner hole with the excavator! Happy new year brother, can’t wait to watch your content in 2023
Always love the get 'er doneness here... now everybody sing along! Off to do some sketchy sh*t, doo dah doo dah; hope i get away with it oh the doo dah day... LoL
Happy New year, thanks again for the past year's journey you have had us on! As always you never fail to create the very best in content. best hours I have spent. Mickey
The blade welder is a big plus on the saw. At the foundry I worked at in the 80s the machine shops DO-ALL had one and it personally saved me 100 hours of frustration over 9 years. I did a lot of my electrical fab work in that shop.
Even if the floor heat isn't working, it's amazing to have a clean, hard, and smooth surface to work on. Even without the turbo heater, just being out of the wind/weather is huge.
Love all your vids but really love the auction videos, would love to see a in depth one on how you get set up as a bidder and everything that goes with getting started with the auction sites
Happy new year Matt. Those containers look like they'd hold some amount of parts and smaller projects. If you hang onto them I'm sure they'd be a useful addition to compliment the new workshop. Was good to see the autocar putting in some work, man that thing sounds great. Been watching for around a year now and you've very quickly become my favourite channel to sit down and watch and even re-watch when I need to just chill out. The work you put into each video ontop of trying to get stuff done doesn't go unnoticed. I'm really happy for all the progress you've made since I started watching and I can't wait to see what 2023 brings for you. Cheers
Not sure if you are up for this, but as the containers go, seems making one into a long thin rack on each side container will be very good for organization. Putting all the cabinets in another container or half the container or whatever configuration works for you and fill it with toys the rest of the way. Then you have a choice of disposing of the older and one of your newly acquired containers. The other option is to put one container on top of the other to store material that is smaller and lighter, possibly less often accessed through one of those side doors. Only an idea. Love to hear yours?
I understand if you need it for a job then will not use it again... those things are very heavy evidenced by the lifting the rear end at the pickup yard.
The only thing better than seeing an hour long Diesel Creek video on a Saturday morning is seeing an hour long Diesel Creek video on Sunday morning and watching it while I eat pancakes.
Another awesome video And boy did you score some tremendous buys! You’ve been at the top of my favorite channels list for several years now. Thanks for all of the wonderful content! May God bless you and Eva with a very Happy New Year!
Happy New Year (from 'across the Pond') and, as ever, another great video. Your attendances at those Ritchie Brothers auctions are guaranteed to provide exciting content!
Hi Matt. Keep all the containers, there'll be one full of yard stuff and other full of kids stuff in no time and half of the parts will be floating around the dreamshop floor looking for a place to be put since everything is allready stacked full. One could be used as yard shed with overhang to accomodate grill and lounge area and other 2 stacked side by side just to storage
Matt, hope you and Eva and everyone involved have a Happy New Year’s sir. Keep up the videos, always look forward to watching and learning from them. Thank you very much.
Happy New Year to you and your family Matt! I am living my dream through you being senior and disabled that wont happen for me but i enjoy the hell out of watching your videos and cant wait for the next one. Cheers to you all from the frozen north in Medicine Hat Alberta.
Of course we like auctions, Matt. Nothing better than watching you being a kid in a candy store. As usual you got some great deals. Happy New Year to you and the mrs.
Here's a salamander story for ya. Almost 40 years myself and 2 buds bought a house that was pretty solid but need fixing up for $5000. First thing on order was heat. The old house has an old gravity furnace original for coal that had a gas conversion burner. Company long out of business in the conversion assembly. So ...i just pulled the assembly and pointed a salamander (50K BTU) into the firebox...worked beautifully. Cheap heat too
Hey Matt happy healthy new year, you are one of my top three video faves over all, I log about 5 + hours a day on u tube, I have spent 3 of those hours watching and listening to you narrate your videos. I especially liked your video rebuilding the diesel powered compactor, great stuff and pouring the floor for your new shop. Congrats.
34:20 you just needed longer chains, assuming you had the height to lift it. The reason they broke is the angle of the chains was too steep. 30 degree angle doubles the stress on the chains, whereas 60 degrees only cuts load capacity by about 15% compared to vertical. Lookup "sling angle stress".
Those containers are way to nice to party with. For what you have in them, I"m sure you can find space for them out in the trees somewhere. YOu can NEVER have too much storage space.
Where you at hope all is well haven't seen a video from you in 10 days hope to see you soon.
I cannot describe how much joy I get watching videos of the autocar being put to work!
Love the Autocar.
same!
I'm glad he put footage of him driving it on main road with no music no time-lapse
It's great to see your old iron earning it's keep. I really like the narrative style of your videos and appreciate the time and effort you put into presenting them for us.

Them Conex Boxes you got are pretty Nice Matt Impressive how well that CAT 938M did lifting Them Boxes 32:20 @Diesel Creek
You did very well at that auction! That powermatic bandsaw, once you have gone through it, is a keeper. Congratulations!
Another hour of great entertainment, thanks Matt.
A big Happy New Year to you Matt. Looking forward to all your exciting adventures in 2023
Same
Thank you, my name is also Matt
Penske waiting on the new BMW S13.
I'm hoping to see some auto car trucking vids!!
Congrats on some great buys. You said you may have too much storage 😂. Not possible!😅
Those containers were a wonderful score. With that lining, wiring, and shelves you got a load of extra value there. Great score!
Great haul! You can NEVER have too much storage. YOU would be crazy to get rid of any of the shipping containers. With ALL of the equipment you own these would make great parts houses. You could really keep a good amount of inventory in them and very organized. Thank YOU for the videos. Happy New Year
Yes!!! More content and here I thought we would have to wait until the new year. Thanks Matt. Cheers to the new year!

Good idea! Keeping the storage close to the shops will make things much more convenient and will save valuable time.
@@OutlawH2 Yeah, more storage space often means buying more junk.

I also appreciate that you don't try to act silly or be a comedian like we see in so many videos, yours are very easy to watch. Thank you again!
I will never grow tired of seeing your Autocar Matt. That 6x6 pay star would have looked nice in the fleet, too!
I agree!!
I say keep them all. Use that side pass through design, connect all three side-by-side. Set them all on concrete piers to level all three as one unit. I'd relocate those Vidmar cabinets to the main shop and use the containers as remote/long-term storage space.

I have done the same... only so many hours in the day and I have to work and fix my crap.
I tried to slim down channels, grew larger instead. Lot of things happening in the world now to try and keep aware of.

Awesome buy Matt good to see the wife gave you some pocket money lol all the best for 2023 mate great content always take care 👍👌🔧🔧🔧❤️
I have been going back through old videos, that I thought I had watched already, it is awsome to see the difference in the farm and the impact the hard work you have put in to it has changed it from the beginning.
I always wanted one of these versatile Ventrac's such a awesome machine with lots of Options Matt 16:31 @Diesel Creek
Happy New Year Matt, Eva, Roscoe and Meatball- all the best for 2023.
You’ve done very well with the Ritchie Bros auctions, always worth a watch 👍
Dead spot 52:07 to 53:10 might need to crop it out and re-render it
@@marksaddler I thought it my phone or service.
Goodntight, I’d definitely use one of those 40’ containers with the shelving and cabinets for parts and hardware storage.
Just a suggestion, but, why not go ahead and re-assemble the 3 boxes as a warehouse and use that for parts and expensive tool storage? They are much easier to lock up and secure things under a camera system. It also gives you storage outside of your new building to allow work instead of clutter being underfoot.
good thinking. it would be easy to clutter up the permanent structure. over time, clutter has a way of filling up and interfering with premium dry, HVAC cement floor workspace . the boxes are a perfect way to greatly expand the usable space. a key will be to inventory parts and tools on your computer as you assign real locations to them. there are inexpensive programs available of PC and Mac to guide you through the process of laying out your storage area and assigning parts to places.

I only have a 14 inch bandsaw, and I love it. It is handy for metal and wood. I am guessing that you are going to find it quite handy.
The compound is growing!! I look forward to each new video, no matter where they might take you! Thanks, Matt!

Grind both edges of the blade two ends back about a half inch slap them and silver solder them together
Dude! You scored on those containers, the contents alone easily pays what you spent. Good on ya.
I love machines that auctions have

Those connex boxes alone go for ~12,000 near me.
Great way to jump start a Happy New Year Matt! All those containers I thought You were Andrew Camarata getting ready to start another castle build. Keep those Diesel Creek never a dull moment videos coming!

Doesn't get much better than that !!
Thanks for the Christmas bonus! Over an hour. Loved every minute of it.

Huge value for geothermal on cooling a shop. Slight help on heat.
The hydronic heat will be stellar!!
Thanks Matt for all the great videos !!! you and your family have a happy Christmas and a prosperous new year mate 🥰
Awesome deal on the containers. Either have them all connected together to the shop or in close proximity to your shop and have yourself an office/YT dream Lab/storage area! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Happy new year Matt. Those containers look like they'd hold some amount of parts and smaller projects. If you hang onto them I'm sure they'd be a useful addition to compliment the new workshop. Was good to see the autocar putting in some work, man that thing sounds great. Been watching for around a year now and you've very quickly become my favourite channel to sit down and watch and even re-watch when I need to just chill out. The work you put into each video ontop of trying to get stuff done doesn't go unnoticed. I'm really happy for all the progress you've made since I started watching and I can't wait to see what 2023 brings for you. Cheers
Not sure if you are up for this, but as the containers go, seems making one into a long thin rack on each side container will be very good for organization. Putting all the cabinets in another container or half the container or whatever configuration works for you and fill it with toys the rest of the way. Then you have a choice of disposing of the older and one of your newly acquired containers. The other option is to put one container on top of the other to store material that is smaller and lighter, possibly less often accessed through one of those side doors. Only an idea. Love to hear yours?
"I have no use for a container handler"
*Instantly buys 3 containers, has problems handling them.* 😄
exactly the same thing i thought
Those that watched, felt your pain.
I understand if you need it for a job then will not use it again... those things are very heavy evidenced by the lifting the rear end at the pickup yard.
got by though, as ever, so pufff that peace pipe
Matt Handled those containers just fine
Dang dude. You got a great deal on that bandsaw
The only thing better than seeing an hour long Diesel Creek video on a Saturday morning is seeing an hour long Diesel Creek video on Sunday morning and watching it while I eat pancakes.
Mmmmm pancakes nom nom nom.....
Omg that International Is Gorgeous Love these Old Rigs What a Beauty Matt 8:42 @Diesel Creek
The Autocar sounds tough!! Love it.
Another awesome video And boy did you score some tremendous buys! You’ve been at the top of my favorite channels list for several years now. Thanks for all of the wonderful content! May God bless you and Eva with a very Happy New Year!
Happy New Year Matt! Nothing beats Christmas shopping at Ritchie Bros!
Happy New Year (from 'across the Pond') and, as ever, another great video.
Your attendances at those Ritchie Brothers auctions are guaranteed to provide exciting content!
Hi Matt.
Keep all the containers, there'll be one full of yard stuff and other full of kids stuff in no time and half of the parts will be floating around the dreamshop floor looking for a place to be put since everything is allready stacked full.
One could be used as yard shed with overhang to accomodate grill and lounge area and other 2 stacked side by side just to storage
Matt, hope you and Eva and everyone involved have a Happy New Year’s sir. Keep up the videos, always look forward to watching and learning from them. Thank you very much.
Wishing you a Happy new year Matt and family! Love the content excited to see what you have in store for 2023!!!
Great video Matt! Waiting for those auctions to finish is like waiting to open your Christmas presents..lol Happy New Year to you and the family!

Happy New Year to you and your family Matt! I am living my dream through you being senior and disabled that wont happen for me but i enjoy the hell out of watching your videos and cant wait for the next one. Cheers to you all from the frozen north in Medicine Hat Alberta.
Know an Adrian Hunter from Medicine Hat. Pulled a bad ass 2wd pulling truck.
Of course we like auctions, Matt. Nothing better than watching you being a kid in a candy store. As usual you got some great deals. Happy New Year to you and the mrs.
Thanks 👍
Happy New Year Matt, wish you all the best in the coming year. Take care 👍
Pre Waterjet etc, you would drill a pilot hole, weld a blade together cut the internal profile, and then cut the blade apart for big parts.
Here's a salamander story for ya. Almost 40 years myself and 2 buds bought a house that was pretty solid but need fixing up for $5000. First thing on order was heat. The old house has an old gravity furnace original for coal that had a gas conversion burner. Company long out of business in the conversion assembly. So ...i just pulled the assembly and pointed a salamander (50K BTU) into the firebox...worked beautifully. Cheap heat too
Yes another great video to end the year with! Outstanding Chief!
Love the auction videos! Happy New Year, Matt!
Hey Matt happy healthy new year, you are one of my top three video faves over all, I log about 5 + hours a day on u tube, I have spent 3 of those hours watching and listening to you narrate your videos. I especially liked your video rebuilding the diesel powered compactor, great stuff and pouring the floor for your new shop. Congrats.
34:20 you just needed longer chains, assuming you had the height to lift it. The reason they broke is the angle of the chains was too steep. 30 degree angle doubles the stress on the chains, whereas 60 degrees only cuts load capacity by about 15% compared to vertical. Lookup "sling angle stress".
Those containers are way to nice to party with. For what you have in them, I"m sure you can find space for them out in the trees somewhere. YOu can NEVER have too much storage space.
I love watching you Boost our Economy, great Haul Brother. Can’t wait to go through this Shit
🤣🤣🤣
