Please remember, no arguing in the comments. Vote for whoever you want to, scrap prices will even out in the long run either way. I was just stating observations based on years of experience.
You know I got 40,000 views on a 64 Impala 2-door hardtop. Talk a little politics on my car channel but not much, except now I do cuz it doesn't matter anymore. But I'm all over the political and social channels. I probably should have used another one my UA-cam channels to comment. But anyway I've been censored. If I get 440 views that's about it. I'll get them in less than an hour and a half and it just stops. Adding subscribers at least one maybe five a day. Given a small viewership numbers I've got that's remarkable. I put up another 64 two-door hardtop and Palace Super sport 4-speed that should have at least done as well as that one at 40,000 I don't even think it broke a thousand. The moral of the story is if you value your channel I just wouldn't give any clue about politics. I figured you know who the right man for the job is. And it isn't this particular woman 👠👠. In any case just thought I'd share that with you.
Second note. On those pallet jacks that you were calling forklifts it doesn't matter what you call him as far as I'm concerned. Well to play along the bottom on the backside. Torch out holes for your 4 to go through. Attached a couple of crossbars so they sit under the pallet jack forks but on top of your forklift forks. Growing up we used to build these things. We also used to repair Tire molds for BF Goodrich retread. We'd also weld Farmer John's tractor 🚜 exhaust manifold. 40 years later his son and grandson came by and I remember your dad welding this on my tractor etc. you know it's still working. Adrian that thing through the field and use it for a tractor not a toy. I looked at him and said of course it still works. Covid took my dad a couple years ago so I'm just rambling now. Great show
Silas, my six year old son asks me every day if there's a new Silas video. When there is, we sit together and watch it and talk about the things you are doing. I know it's safe for him to watch because there's never any swearing. I bet when you started your channel you didn't think you'd be helping people bond with their kids 🙂👍❤️
If you put some slats underneath two sections of the front part of the forks or the rear part of the forks where you slide into then it'll give you stability where you can pick up cars with a regular forklift
I Really enjoy your Bonus Videos ....A lot less formal and see other things that you do in between videos ...Keep up the good work.....and Thank you 😎👍
Yellow Silas we just like to watch you work. Reach over and grab a couple lemonade and watch you work some more. Some of us used to but can't but nowadays is a lot of these generations won't be looking back and saying how hard they used to work. Maybe you can inspire a few of them.
When you smash that good-looking van at first I realized you're not worth anything but it made me think of my mom. You know she drove a second car is always used while we were growing up anyway. And then they wrecked new ones on TV and she said well I could give me that one, and took my old heap. Of course my dad would say they don't make them like that anymore. Funny how to keep saying that about the new old heaps of cars as we progressed through the years.
Thank you Silas appreciate the additional video like the haircut reminds me of my dad he always kept his cut like that gave me a smile Thank you for that God bless take care
Pallet Jacks Crushing - wow - sooooo Exciting ! These Bonus Videos are Fantastic ! T...................P24!!!! Loving ALL Your Videos Silas - You make them so Interesting ! Many Cheers from Australia !!!!
Dear Mr. Silas. 👍👌👏 2) That's the first thing that came into my mind too. Use the forks to have extensions for your loader forks. I also thought that it might be worth to keep all the forks from those devices and sell them to people wanting to have fork extensions. 3) You're operating the loader like a surgeon his instruments. Congratulations! 🎉 Thanks a lot for making explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and health in particular.
Silas hey buddy how you doing? Love your videos and your content as always. Very educational informative and fun! Just do you can do and don't worry about the rest we'll all be here waiting. I don't know if you like mountain bike events? Just for fun you could check out Red Bull rampage it was just held in Virgin Utah and it's quite exciting to watch. Check it out. Peace out from Oregon
Really enjoy your content. Family friend had a salvage yard when I was a kid. Spent a lot of time there. Discovered your channel when Puddin bought the Mercedes. Subscribed and watch both channels since.
Yeppers I myself do some scraping to make extra cash,an believe me I'd like to see prices go up. Do what U can an hopefully people will be more respectful of your time. TKS for sharing.
Silas I operated a shredder for 10 years Those forklifts in those bundles will shred but they are really hard on the rotor and hammers If we had found forklifts in the bundles we would put them in the heavy pile to be sheared or torched I’m surprised you don’t get docked on the price with them in there Not trying to be rude just my experience Been following you a long time and really enjoy your videos Thank you for making them!!
What's the connection between the price of steel and the elections? Is the idea that one candidate or the other might make better decisions for the economy overall which would drive up the price of steel? Or is it specifically a which candidate is friendlier towards the construction industry? I'm a bit confused on that one.
Arnt those pallet jacks worth more than crush weight?seems like you get a lot more money for them selling them outright. I know when i use to use pallet jacks, I only had manual ones, I would have given my left nut for a power one like those for sure!
I always wondered what happened to the really good tires that came in on vehicles. Hard to believe that people aren't looking to salvage yards for used tires.
That's the trouble with some people expect you to not earn your self a profit why would you take the same money with alot of hassle when you can crush it i used to be self employed in the welding and car repairs and i can't be dealing with people now more with messing around and not wanting to pay for the work and expect it cheap
Just a thought.... Weld two forks back to back x 2 , so they become solid as rectangular tubes and slip over loader forks ...... Also if you sell half your scrap now I think you'll not be backward which ever way the election goes and you'll be able to put more in the yard ! 😉🙃😎 NZ
I think it's quite admirable to try to remain apolitical.The old adage applies, about religion and politics not being subjects for polite discussion. Why risk offending customers, if remaining silent keeps people happy? Being in business though, you surely don't want to vote against your own interests. And there are admittedly times, when a candidate or party, can be very pro or anti business! Personally I've always been pragmatic in my choices. Something may sound great, but is it practical, eh? The rich can afford to vote with their heart, instead of their head.

Cool !!
It's always a joy to see Silas performing loader surgery. Expert skills from thousands of hours of practice.
What a delicate touch you have with that loader. A master!
Just don't forget to vote.
Those crazies are mighty tenacious!
You operate the loader perfectly 😮 great video thanks 👍
I do my best. Many years of experience
Right. How he is able to rip out a cat without it ever touching the ground
You are a awesome loader operator!
That's a two skid ride on pallet jack my friend. Hands down the most dangerous machines on the loading dock.
You’re Crushing It! Always fun to watch.
It's fun to show off your SKILLZ! 😛
If you put some slats underneath two sections of the front part of the forks or the rear part of the forks where you slide into then it'll give you stability where you can pick up cars with a regular forklift
25 dollars a tire damn that's a good price. Here in the Northeast they run about 45 a tire used with enough tread for summer time.
Your pretty good on that
Thank you Silas
I would call those pallet jacks rather than forklifts.
Keep em coming
Thanks very much silas , have a nice day too
I Really enjoy your Bonus Videos ....A lot less formal and see other things that you do in between videos ...Keep up the good work.....and Thank you 😎👍

Now you're just showing off. 😊
You're a busy man. Do what you can
thanks

Thank you Silas appreciate the additional video like the haircut reminds me of my dad he always kept his cut like that gave me a smile Thank you for that God bless take care

Pretty cool that's badass
People can’t get it in their heads that you’re running a business,not a charity.
Stuff happens. It’s frustrating sometimes when you’re in a hurry, but life goes on.
Tanner, get the fork lift pallet thingy
Dear Mr. Silas.

Watching from Wisconsin
At 15:00 it would have been better to roll the fork lift over to allow the top of the fork lift to embed into the van.
Love all your videos buddy
Yes we will Peace out

Silas hey buddy how you doing? Love your videos and your content as always. Very educational informative and fun! Just do you can do and don't worry about the rest we'll all be here waiting.

Thank you Silas for providing us another awesome adventure to watch!!
Nice job on the gate, you do do the work of 5!
It is so sad that all those body parts get destroyed

I'll take that 5:3 in the transmission lol
Hellow Silas buddy
I really enjoy watching these videos, thanks
Really enjoy your content. Family friend had a salvage yard when I was a kid. Spent a lot of time there.
Discovered your channel when Puddin bought the Mercedes. Subscribed and watch both channels since.
i got no truck to get there in, the price you quoted for that diplomat was an awesome price, i would buy it for that!
Yeppers I myself do some scraping to make extra cash,an believe me I'd like to see prices go up. Do what U can an hopefully people will be more respectful of your time. TKS for sharing.

Hello
Why don't you use the railroad to transport metal out? Are they more expensive than trucks?
U rock
Silas I operated a shredder for 10 years Those forklifts in those bundles will shred but they are really hard on the rotor and hammers If we had found forklifts in the bundles we would put them in the heavy pile to be sheared or torched I’m surprised you don’t get docked on the price with them in there Not trying to be rude just my experience Been following you a long time and really enjoy your videos Thank you for making them!!
They told me to crush them in the bundles. They rip everything apart with the claw before shredding it anyway.
Nap sounds like a winner! Count me in!
Have a fantastic evening silas excellent 😊😊

Stance on trade, industry, regulations, etc.
People forget there is a lot of work to scrap cars - parts need to be pulled - stuff put in it's proper spot for recycle - GREAT Content - Thanks!
I like the short video, there’s only so many hours in the day.
Arnt those pallet jacks worth more than crush weight?seems like you get a lot more money for them selling them outright. I know when i use to use pallet jacks, I only had manual ones, I would have given my left nut for a power one like those for sure!
l in the UK putting money on trumb winning
its dangerous working alone. You dont want to be the riches man in the cemetery
Thanks Silas Mate
Wish I was closer to you, 98547 to far to ship!
2024 kick ass silas lol cheers 😊
Fork extenders
Any video is good
I always wondered what happened to the really good tires that came in on vehicles. Hard to believe that people aren't looking to salvage yards for used tires.
I’m always amazed that people will go spend $400 per tire at the rent to own tire shop but won’t give me $25 each for like new ones.
Hey . This year in South Africa we had a choice of 43 parties. No outright winner. So they formed a government of national unity...
A right royal....
That's the trouble with some people expect you to not earn your self a profit why would you take the same money with alot of hassle when you can crush it i used to be self employed in the welding and car repairs and i can't be dealing with people now more with messing around and not wanting to pay for the work and expect it cheap
Keep being u
Silas is the best operator in kansas! Silky smooth cat removal
Salis that was fantastic thank you forthe great video and the forklifts
Just a thought.... Weld two forks back to back x 2 , so they become solid as rectangular tubes and slip over loader forks ...... Also if you sell half your scrap now I think you'll not be backward which ever way the election goes and you'll be able to put more in the yard ! 😉🙃😎 NZ
Your forklift is a pallet jack- whole different animal ?
