Boeing retiree finds meaning inventing micro homes & high speed trikes 

Agreed

Homeless people need long term lock down psych treatment. Not live on the street.

Nicole Black no

and loving guy

@@nicoleblack438 Homeless people need long term lock down psych treatment but while they're waiting for government to get it in gear, they need a dry place safe to sleep.

You think all homeless people are mentally ill? Wow. That’s myopic.

My Dad was the same way, he most likely made and designed tools and gadgets that work, not just look like they are supposed to right..... RIP Dad Cant wait to see you soon. Thanks for sharing.

Fuxk yeah

Live and Learn . Learn to live. But .. money helps !

Just go for it! That's life

Yes! My first thought ehen the window broke was "he's not upset, he just learned how to make something better!"

@@caswallonandflur692 Money unfortunately makes the world go round for sure. Though he uses very little money for his inventions and upcycles most of his materials, for people living paycheck to paycheck every penny is already spent. There is also the matter of having space and tools. That helps and you often need money for those. However you can do a lot of things at no or very little cost. I love crafts of all sorts. I love making anything I need and always find ways to improve things. My first sewing machine my exs dad got for me free from the still good shed at the dump. You can get TONS of good stuff at these. My second sewing machine that I still use I got for 5 bucks at a yard sale. Both nice machines and I gave the first one to my friends sister who wanted to go into fashion. It is often all in how you see the world. What can be improved or what can be used for what. $15 for the clips that hang baby toys? $1 for shower curtain clips. I started when I wanted to make a pull wagon as a kid. Got 2 wheels off an old carriage and put them on a box. Tied on a rope and I loved that thing. Inventing is all about imagination. Where there is a need for something or room for improvement find a way. If low on money, just keep an idea in your head and your eyes open and you'll find what you need eventually. Always be curious and never stop learning.

I wonder if the Oru Kayak company got the inspiration for their Origami Kayak from this guy.

How brilliant is it to put a stove in a highly flammable plastic structure? Don't bother answering.

@@BillOweninOttawa Pretty sure your house is highly flammable, and you have a stove in it. Maybe even a fireplace too.

Gotta keep the vibes positive!

and what u can.

Well put kind sir, well put... And I concur wholeheartedly!

The Monarch of Modest-budget Mobile homes!

The best part is he is making something useful of all those campaign sign eyesores you see spring up everywhere come election times... Bravo!!!

Got to love interesting people!

Chill dude

he has obviously spouted this from indoor grow rooms lol

U made me smile 😁⬅️That face hahahahahah

Try starting a kickstarter campaign to help you get started

Remember these are prototypes of design, and sometimes function. I hate to throw my babies away, but some times it's necessary.

That is exactly what utilities is like! Bike and Buggy!

Yep, totally agree

@@JohnDoe-fv3vs good idea bro LMAO

@@JohnDoe-fv3vs you silly butt. get a bottle from vat19 or somewhere. I might try that. hehe.

I picturing this as the premise to an anime conveyed in the opening credits while j-pop plays and the bike thief pulls the trailer to the left side of the screen across a field of lush grass.

😂😂😂😂

And that's how you kidnap in style plus it comes with a bed so add some rape to that

Kevin Dahm i

Or atleast a youtube channel. It has been like he keeps making stuff and someone else is filming him occasionally. That's only how we know about him.. Edit:- I just found his channel. Its on his name Paul Elkins.

@@KetansaCreatesArt Thanks

Your so right, is how man has been programmed, so is how he thinks. The sad thing, they usually get offended when you think smarter. Man does not need tiny homes, well he does, but not in the sense that is being presented. Man wants land and a home, freedom to travel, to live. You do something that provides everything in one then you came up with a workable solution. Is so easy too. :-)

@@SimonWoodburyForget 10k for a lifetime of passion and self-fulfillment? sounds pretty cheap

@@SimonWoodburyForget Why build something that you love building when you can just buy one? Why buy fishing rods and go fishing when you can just buy fishes? Why spend time playing sports when you can just watch athletes play? Why play video games when you can just watch others play it for you? Why travel around the world when you can just look at photos online? Why spend so much time having fun painting when you can just buy a painting from a professional, or even cheaper, print it? Why have fun doing something you're passionate about doing when you can just have someone else do it for you, clearly they'd be more professional than you and would do a better job, so you shouldn't do it even if you like doing it. Heck, why have hobbies or passion at all? We should be spending our free time doing things that we don't enjoy instead, right?

@@SimonWoodburyForget lmao nice argument, "don't bother making things yourself, they'll just be useless, buy from big companies instead, they know what they're doing" THIS is what we should be telling generations of young people :) more consumers!

​@@SimonWoodburyForget let's all stay dependent on big companies so they can keep selling us items designed to break, because what are you gonna do, make things yourself? nonsense! the things you make will be useless compared to items perfectly engineered (to break after 6 - 18 months) seriously dude, look up planned obsolescence. lol. but even that aside, you're totally right about enjoyment, no argument there. but fuck off with that consumer propaganda horseshit. this isnt just about enjoyment. it's about the bigger picture of a society of people who fail to even get that experience and go after those tools because of people like you who tell them, there's no point, just go to walmart, let other people supply your world for you. what kind of message is that? yes, you have triggered me! :)

Lmfao omg I didn't think of that! Now I can't unsee it😹😹😹😹

Mine to!

Hot Sauce Or the Japanese capsule hotel.

It's a shame that the homeless and druggies used them hedging and bushes to shoot up in, now day's kid's leaving in the City don't understand what a fat tree or 7ft bush could be with an imagination.

Amazing he's very creative he could make a bad homeless situation so much better for the homeless

Steven Beshears yeah I had a binge day awhile ago and saw all the videos on these.

i no i subscribed about 4 year ago

Oooo, I was searching since long. Just found when I searched this name. Thank you for telling.

For real!

Your welcome!

We don't stop playing because we get old. We get old because we stop playing.

non prends pas mal

That's the first thing that comes to mind - replace the tents and cardboard boxes. Unfortunately fascistic political hacks in sewers like San Francisco want to keep things the way they are because it benefits them.

@@craigtheschmeg3253 That's awful. People not caring about people is going to be the world's down fall.

@Nikol S. Ervant Gladly. Will you be up next?

Wow you’re hot and caring. Not a common trait for women in 2020. You are a rare woman. :)

Lol! Probably. In All seriousness its 2020, can we get some dang leg room on a plane please! I remember a flight many years ago that wasn't full so I asked if I could sit in the middle emergency exit seat. They said sure! At 6' 3" I was swimming in leg room. It was amazing!

I have no idea why people think they are doing good while not addressing real problems. Ask any millennial - do you want to live in a trailer or a house you'd get the same answer. Pretending its cool, modern or a life style choice is just head in sand. The bankers and their printed credit money is why you're on a 0 hours contract with no future and even 2 incomes from 0 amount to 0. There is no social mobility anymore and you're basically being milked by those with skin the game

Bet he had better pay than you.

You made me laugh on a lazy saturday morning. Keep on going!

hahaaha

Sometimes you just build and see what happens!

Joseph Youdontneedtoknowmylastnameski 😂😂😂

@@shyano1858 don't care!

His ideas can be a quick temporary fix to help with the homeless problem. A start. Unfortunately political hacks that run sewers like San Francisco don't really want to fix the problem. It's easier to just cry for the homeless to look righteous.

Lol

that would be trippy

😂 I thought the exact same thing! My friend drove cross country years ago in his little hatchback. Had so much stuff piled in it he slept with his face almost touching the glass. Pulled over exhausted one night at a rest stop and woke up to the face of a very mentally handicapped guy a few inches away staring in at him.

you sir! are funny

LMAO or some drunk guy peeing on it!
