DIY SKID STEER Things got OUT OF HAND Part 7 

Every time you step into your shop and begin working, you are keeping your grandfather alive in a sense. However much time it takes to feel better; your fellow gearheads will still be here when you get back. Please convey our condolences to your husband and his family as well.

I lost my grandfather 30 years ago and he was responsible for my love of making things. Because of him i now have a shop filled with his tools, much like you. He is very much present and helps me all the time. My wofe has taken to asking my grandfather where to find something and she feels drawn directly to what shes looking for. He isn't gone. he's just not visible.

Sorry for your loss. This project and all the others would make any granddad proud.

your grandpa has seen the best thing right before he died.. you took over the shop and its alive again.. he died as a proud man..

Condolences for your loss. Wishing you and your family can find comfort.

Sorry for the losses to your family. We live to honour the memory of those before us.

Please accept our condolences on your losses. We love your videos, but we can wait. God Bless, Lee

Sorry for your family's loss, nothing is more important than taking time to heal. I give you my best and prayers for you and your family. When you decide to come back we'll be here behind you.

Spanners are down for a moment of reflection and remembrance I'd like to thank both ""grandad and mum"" who without we wouldn't have you and your husband We shall see them again one day with tears of joy

Grandparents are the best , too bad we do not get more time with them. Keep your grandpa's spirit alive in the shop.

From where I'm from, what you made is a jig for that frame work for the seat. Just concerned the engine doesn't have the horsepower to run everything. Those pumps do pull a lot of power. Be proud of your work, been a follower for a while now, your grand dad would be proud of you. So sorry for your loss. Take all the time you need to yourself, family and know that we loyal followers, we're still here for you. :)

Please accept my condolences, both to you and your husband. Your connection to your grandpa was special, and what most grandpas hope for. I'm sure he was very proud of how you picked up the mantel and made his tools sing. I hope to pass along my skills with woodworking to my grandchildren, but they are still young, with diverse interests. As sad as this time is, I know they would want you to celebrate their lives and carry on. You have already done so by following in his footsteps. Take care.

So sorry for your loss of your grandpa and mother in law. Mourne their passing, but always remember to celebrate their lives.

I really sorry for loss and the pain for those left behind so they find comfort in their memories. The door frame turned out nice.

Sorry for your loss, take as much time as you and family need to get over this loss, we’ll be here when your ready ❤️ 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

May I offer my sincerest condolences with the passing of your two very special family members. To you Lucia and your family. Thank you for explaining the situation you have to face now and still I must congratulate you on th fine engineering of your skid steer loader. May your God go with you! Also my prayers.

So sorry for your losses... Glad you got to spend this time with grandpa and learn this stuff.

Our hearts are with you as you mourn the passing of such inspiring family members.

❤ Dear Lucia I very much enjoy yoir video posts and your good looks are bonus. My condolences on the loss of your grandfather. Always in your heart.❤

So sorry for your loss. Loosing two members of your family so close together must be very difficult. I look forward to seeing your videos again when you feel up to it. Take good care of yourself.

Sorry for your loss and pain. We are not promised tomorrow, so make the most of each day and tell & show all of the ones in your life how much they mean to you.

It's always brilliant to see someone with strikingly good looks who's NOT just using their physical beauty to cruse through life on easy mode. Way too many handsome men and beautiful women don't bother to learn truly basic life skills because it involves effort, and it's way too easy for them just to sweet talk someone else into doing these things for them. It's rare for "Pretty people" to be practical. I've met handsome guys who'd struggle to work out how to paint a wall without splattering everything in emulsion, and pretty women who wouldn't even think to check if power plugs were connected if their TV, DVD player, computer, etc didn't start when they pressed the power button. They'd just call a technician out to look at it. So as I said, it makes me think there may still be hope for this world 's future when I see someone with Lucia's looks, who's put in the work to built an enviable skill set that puts their practical capabilities well above 99.9% of other folks out there. (Before anyone decides to think I'm being s*xist here, I'm not saying I'm impressed that a WOMAN is building these projects so professionally, I'm saying I'm impressed that someone who could so easily have relied purely on their looks for an easy life decided instead to amass such an astoundingly wide practical skill set that most employers often would need to hire several different people just to cover the roles they could fill !) Oh, and BTW Lucia, the word you were looking for at 2:16 is either going to be "Jig" or possibly "Fixture".

Sorry for your loss. It can’t be an easy time for you and your family. Take time to grieve.

Remember them for the treasure they where. And enjoy the memories. 😢👍

So sorry for your loss! I'm sure they were both proud of you and your talents! You are definitely skilled and will overcome the skid loader issues. Take time and grieve its needed!

So sorry for your loss of your Grandpa, and Mother in law. My sincere condolence.

The piece you made to hold your parts in place for welding them is called a "jig" in English. Jigs are used to hold something in shape while it is welded, screwed, glued, etc depending on the type of work being done. Excellent work as always! Your Grandfather would be very proud!

So sorry for your loss!! You are in our thoughts and prayers!! Stay strong!

Мои соболезнования, Люсия. 😔😔 Пусть Бог благословит вашу семью и защитит вас. 🙏🙏🙏 Я думаю, что ваш дедушка очень гордится вами. Он воспитал замечательную женщину. 💯

Lucia, I am so sorry for your loss!

I’m sorry to hear about your loss. Do take care of yourself, life is shorter than we think it is. Great job on the seat. Bummer on the belt shredding issue.

Losing a family member is difficult, but loosing two is devastating. My heart goes out to your family and you're in my prayers. God bless.

take all the time you need! My sincere condolences for both your mother in law and your grandpa! take it easy we'll all be right here when the next video comes out! take good care!

Lucia, So very sorry for your loss. I am the last living member of my family and it truly breaks my heart to see your heart broken. I can tell by the way you speak of you family from time to time that you love them all very much. Much love and sorrow and respect from Tennessee

I think the word you are looking for is jig. You made a jig to reproduce exact parts =) Great work keep it up! Sorry for your loss, just know they live on through, God Bless.

I'm so very sorry for your loss. My prayers are on the way for you and your entire family, I know how hard it is and the lord will help ya'll through this !

Condolences. When a loved one passes on They do not go - they do not disappear They will always be with you In your heart and in your dreams and in your memories Remember them fondly.

IAM SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS .YOUR FAMILY WILL BE IN MY PRAYERS TONIGHT 😢

So sorry to hear about the passing of two of your family members. My they rest in peace. God Bless

Sorry for the loss of your family members Lucia, You know your grandpa is very proud of you.

So sorry for your loss! You will keep their memories alive with everything you create. We will be here waiting for you!

My codolences, sorry for your loss. Work (and youtube) always comes second to family.

...please accept my sincere condolences. It is always a difficult time when our loved ones pass. 😢

Condolences for your loss. I've been there a number of times with losing close family. It never gets easier, it's just different each time it happens. May the memories of them bring you joy.

Sorry for your loss. Losing someone you love is the hardest thing to deal with there is. That thing to make more than one thing the same multiple times, is called a "Jig". I love your precision work.

Sorry for your losses Lucia. Take care and we shall all be patiently waiting for your next video when your ready to post again

I am sorry for your family’s loss. I lost my father a few months ago. I understand the emotions more than I ever wanted to.

I showed my youngest daughter, 22, this video. You should be very proud of what you have accomplished and I know your grandfather was. I'm very proud of my daughters and that's all men really want in this world. Success for men is knowing our family is going to continue to do great things.

So sorry for your losses. My condolences to you and your husband's families. Take as much time as you need to deal with your grief. When I lost my daughter someone told me "You can't go around it, you have to go through it" and it gave some purpose to the pain. Take comfort in the fact that your grandfather saw your skills grow while he was alive, I'm sure he was very proud of you.

Nice! A mountain bike shock!!! We call this type of work "On the fly engineering"... you are basically trying things for proof of concept , and making progress on that one step at a time...and an amazingly effective door system! The big equipment companies should use this...maybe patent it for yourself?

Condolences on you and your husband's loss. Keep your family well and heal.

Condolance for your household(s) on the loss. I pray for calmness, insight and acceptance of loss for you all.

Lucia, very sorry to hear about your losses. Thanks for sharing this video. Take care

My condolences on the loss of your grandfather. I imagine he’s bragging about you right now. My John Deere skidsteer front window is just like your design, nicely done. But it must be closed for the engine to run. It’s aggravating at times but it will keep you from trying to get out of the cab with the engine running and the hydraulics still live. Too many guys left families behind getting out of the cab when they shouldn’t have.

So sorry fo your loss. Your Grandpa would be very proud of you. Sympathy to you and your family.

DEAR Lucia I just want to check back and say that I hope you are doing better after your recent family loss, you and your family are still in my prayers take care❤❤❤❤

Thank you for everything, and my condolences.

Sorry for your loss. I pray for peace for your loved ones.

Sorry to hear about your grandparents. Thoughts and prayers

So sorry to hear of your loss. Prayers for you and your family. 🙏🙏🙏

Definitely forget the machine for as long as it takes Lucia . I'm sorry for your loss . :(

We are sorry for your loss. Enjoy your build very much. Thank you for your words. God bless you and your family.

Sorry for your loss. You will always have them with you and watching over you.

My condolences. Take your time, be with your family. We'll still be here when you come back.

I am sorry for your loss. Take all the time you need, your shop will be there.

I am sorry to hear of your loss. Take care of you. The Loader can wait. FYI I think the word you were looking for about the part you built to hold things in place is "Jig". Take care and be kind to yourself.

I'm sorry that your grandfather and your husband's mother passed away. I'll be praying for you and your family when God puts you in my thoughts. God bless you!

So sorry to hear about your losses! I always look forward to your videos, and I'll continue to do so whenever you have time to start working again. I'm sure your whole family is proud that you're keeping the shop alive, and understanding that you need time.

Sorry for your loss. You knew it was coming, but that doesn't make it any easier. It's just a hard thing, as I know from experience. What healed me was the eventual realization they themselves would not have wanted you to sink into self-pity. But first you must grieve. I understand that; take as much time as you like and need. We'll all be here when you return. It seems crass to say, but the parts you were looking for the names are a "swing arm." You have created a "double swing arm suspension" for your seat. That's a little unusual, but not unknown. More usually the swing arm is single and it articulates against one of the fixed plates. That works, though; and especially if you are tight on space. In case that wasn't the name you wanted, the tool you used to hold everything in place while tacking it is called a "jig." Making a jig is a high quality piece of work, so congrats. Condolences again...

Őszinte részvétem a családnak!

I have really enjoyed this project and your build. It's hard to lose loved ones and my heart goes to you. We will all be here if and when you decide to continue.

Sorry for your loss, It`s never easy. Great job on the loader .I think you will have much better luck with the direct drive pump..Looking forward to seeing this.

So sorry to hear about the loss of your loved ones, please accept our condolences at this very sad time.

Sorry about your grandpa. Prayers are with you and your family. Scrap metal you turned into a “Jig”. 😊

My deepest condolences! Knowing someone is sick isn't an easier step to death, in fact it's harder... the want for them to get better is huge but pale in comparison when they pass & you know they're not suffering anymore! As for your build, i'm beyond impressed! I own a skid steer and have for years & know that owning is way different then building as there aren't the stresses of engineering & problem solving required. I would definitely find comfort in knowing that I was one of the few that's tried!! Keep up the great work!

Sorry for your loss. My deepest condolences to you and your family. Pleasant memories from the past are what many rely on to get through the loss of a loved one. Please take the time you need before you return to the shop. It’s a dangerous place to be if you’re not fully back into being there. My Dad passed away last September 2nd just 3 days after his 92nd birthday and my Mom was 6 years ago. I still think of them daily and the great memories still make me smile.

So sorry for your loss. Sending your whole family love from Tennessee.

You always create a miracle out of nothing, you are creative, Sorry for your loss. this is the life...

Congratulations on the many happy memories you accumulated with your family.

It was sad to hear of you losing your loved ones. We will all be thinking of you and I hope you can get past these difficult times. It will just take some time.

Sorry for your loss, Lucia. Wishing you and your family peace and strength. I am sure that your grandfather in particular is very proud of you! You are a gem - we will wait patiently for your follow up!

Our condolences to both of your families, I'm sure that both those people were so very proud of your achievements and determination, they will be with you both as you go forward. Take the time needed and be kind to yourselves, Ger and Janice, Ireland👍👍

E' bellissimo vedere una donna costruire un veicolo... Roba da maschi. Brava Lucia,sei grande

Condolences from New Zealand. I am sure your grandfather will be kept alive through you. His spirit will live for ever. My condolences to you and all your family.

I'm sorry for your lost I hope to see you back when you are ready

A contraption you make for the purpose of holding pieces together to make exact copies is called a "jig". Also, I just want to say that your level of design and engineering is the best I've seen on any channel!

Take all the time you need, we'll be here when you're ready to return. Condolences to you and your family Lucia.

Hello Lucia Sorry to hear about your Grandfather. My sincere condolences to you and your family. You did your Grandfather proud with ability and creativity in his and your workshop he will be watching over you. As they say “ time heals “ but he is in you and your family’s hearts ♥️ Take Care Greg NSW AUSTRALIA

I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your loved ones Lucia. It is never easy and always takes time. Take all the time in the world you need and never feel any pressure to think you have to rush or please others in finishing your project. We all love seeing what you have done and accomplished and we will always support you no matter what. I have to say I love that door you have added to the Skid steer. Pure work of art. Take care of yourself and your family.

Lady Lucia, sorrow for you and your husbands loss. In your time of solace please reflect on the joyful things shared.

Sorry for your loss. Losing a loved one is hard. Please know that I am praying for you and your husband in this difficult time. May Gods love grant both peace and comfort during this time.

We're all just guests on earth. And it often comes in a harsh way to remember us. Take the time you need. I really appreciate sharing your work with us. And be shure that on projects like this, things like the belt will always happen. But that's what you call "experience"! I'm pretty shure, you'll make it work. Looking forward to see it digging. ;)

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. I love your videos and watching your work Lucia, but take your time mourning the loss of your loved ones and we all look forward to seeing you back in the shop when you're ready.

Sorry to hear about the loss of your loved ones. Take all the time you need...family is the most important thing in the end ♥

So sorry for your loss, I will keep you and your family in my prayers. 🙏🙏🙏

It may not feel like it now, but you have learned how to prevail in hard times. You have shown it with this order build. So sorry to hear of your losses, so close. There is never a good time to go, but it must feel like being kicked when you are down.

My condolences for both big losses, remember them and love them for always!

I lost my aunt and 4 days later my brother. Its difficult to grieve them when they leave so soon after each other. Blessings to you and your family.

So sorry for your families loss, sending love to you all from the UK ❤

Lucia that piece is called a JIG. 😊
