This is one of the few channels that is what I always thought youtube was about, everyday people doing their everyday stuff. You are a very talented all rounder who openly admits when he's not sure or makes a mistake , that's sometimes the best bits (oil shooting all over the shop for example). May you have a wonderful future and you deserve many more subscribers.

First and for most you are amazing. Very talented and have a good eye for bargains. I have to say I appreciate you making and sharing your videos with us. Don't feel bad about spraying oil all over the place, though I was saying, "No, no, don't start it yet with out the cap on"...lol. But all's good. I do love the trailer. Was totally made for your project. I do have a suggestion...on the wheel covers, bolt or weld some plates on the side next to the compressor. This will keep road debris, water, etc. from hitting the sides of the compressor when you move it on the road. And as far as a cover goes for the controls I think if you rework it so you can just use a flat plate of steel instead of having folded edges. Merry Christmas, Jaydn!

Happy Holidays Jaydn, Its been a good year watching your videos and seeing your channel grow. I hope to see more Vitara and offroad videos in the future. All work and no play makes Jaydn a dull Boy. Keep up the good work. For the coming year i'll be working on recovery from a stroke and trying to get back to working in my shop .

I just finished the video. Had to wait for YouTube to do it's thing and buffer between servers, such that i could watch with no interruptions.<br>Gotta say: THAT is such a cool bit of kid, made better by you fixed, adapted and modernized it. IDK why, gave me the fuzzy warm feels inside :face-red-heart-shape:

That will be a nice setup when completed. A few sandblasting jobs and it will pay for itself. Don’t forget to reinstall the exhaust heat shield or you’ll cook your fibreglass cover. Also cut off the end of your crimped exhaust pipe to make sure you aren’t restricted. Merry Christmas and thank you for your videos!

Thats going to be an impressive unit once completed. Glad you got back to it, good find on that trailer by the way. When you shot the oil in the air that was a surprise. Love the videos and have a Merry Christmas
