That is a full time job in itself, Keeping people from stealing more of your stuff. I wish you great success and the thieves a long walk off a short cliff.
Quite a few years ago, someone helped themselves to a trailer and 2 quads I had. I found out who did it, found my stuff in their barn, then "introduced myself" to his wife. (not by name) I let her know that he could return my stuff by 7:00pm ("he knows where he stole it") OR his world would implode around him... "no matter what his choice, no cops will be involved." Truth be known, I hadn't come up with a plan, but the bluff worked- He slithered into my driveway and dropped off my stuff at 6:45 that evening, quiet as a mouse! GB&GG, Brother.
I am glad you are getting your equipment out of there for the winter. You work so hard for everything you have for you and your family. I hope there are no more trespassers on your properties. 😊🙏
Check this out- I have a trap set now with security and trackers ready and have a vid coming up on how I am protecting the place without giving away all my secrets. Stay safe and warm. See you on Friday!
I hope all the cameras, tracking devices and ammo you got to secure your land has a great impact on who's ever stealing from you Stan. Gettem Dirt Monkey. 👍👍✌️
Mu h appreciated Richard. I have a trap set now with security and trackers ready and have a vid coming up on how I am protecting the place without giving away all my secrets.
What you should've done is leave the equipment but dig a small tiger trap near the equipment. During the Vietnam war the Viet Cong (guerrilla insurgent group) would peal back the landscape, dig a small hold where they would place sharpened bamboo shoot that had been soaked in human fecal material. Then they would take some thinned bamboo to support the landscape. What happen next I am sure you can visualize. Soldier steps on false ground, foot goes into hole where bamboo shoot sharpened to a point penetrate the soles of boots. The tiger trap was not set to kill you, just to give you intense paid. The fecal material also causes an infection. Criminals only understand blunt force trauma. Criminals love panty waste judges who give them slaps on the wrist time after time. Country singer Charlie Daniel's is the one who coined the phrase panty waste judges and panty waste prosecutors.
@@SuperWagner23 Sir, I really appreciate the response, because all I could do was think about the carnage the feet would go through. And everyone knows that the feet is your best thing to take care of if anyone wants to survive. But, absolutely understand. But. You know sometimes the government doesn't want claymores, guillotine appointments, or anything else. But I definitely understand. Thank you for your time.
@@SuperWagner23 They're called pungy stakes (I'm going from memory on what friends told me who were there, I wasn't) and that sounds like a vary good way to get your ass sued off. Not that it isn't a good anti theft precaution...just not good legally.
I think you should hire Rex, Jawbone an Cujo, three former members of the security division of an automobile salvage facility. My wife and I raise Rhodesian Ridgebacks, aka African Lion Hounds. In fifty years there has been nothing stolen and no bodies found. Our local police friends refer to ours as the PASSOVER HOUSE. ;-))
I think good strong Dogs are excellent security. I have a German shepard and Coonhound myself. The hound dog can track them and the german shepard- well you get the idea.
Ridgebacks are cool dogs. I had a blue heeler that would not let strangers leave and now have a shepherd pit that no one wants to mess with. I wonder if they are watching this. Gotta put an eye in the sky here.
@@senpaisanchoyt5225 & Zoey S The POLICE refer to it as the passover house... They(the police) pass over this house when patrolling as it is secure and needs no help from them.
Stanley - I'm originally from Minnesota ... family moved out to Mound/Minnetrista when we were young, moved to the North woods (Ely) for several years, and ended up back in St Louis Park/Edina before moving on. It's not only great to hear the Minnesoooota accent, but it's great to see how things are still great back home.
Right on Stanley! You're a good egg bro! I love your content. I'm an old fence and deck builder and landscaper/maintenance guy. Backs too shitty now so im an OTR truck driver and miss being out there soaking up the vitamin D and being outdoors! Makes me sad but I still enjoy the road as well! I wish God made me invisible until my last day but... anyway take man, I can tell you take a lot of pride in your craft and you work extremely hard! God bless you bro and love ya!
This is going to sound BAD but I LOVE chasing Thieves. Its the thrill of going after them. WE caught the GIRL that stole my wallet and thousands of dollars out of my truck back in the cities. She also stole from 70 other people. Full vid on that coming soon.
Thanks for another video! It stinks that these people keep doing this to you! Keep up the great work! Good luck the rest of the week! Are you plowing yet? Any of the now we have had around here hasn't stuck!
@@Dirtmonkey that always makes for good character, and good content. Ps. Hopefully it went better that you expected, not worse, but that never happens.
Hey Stan, quick question. Do you design a blueprint for all of your projects or just outline it in the land and start working? If so, how do you design it? Thanks.
Legend! Thanks for tuning in so fast! I've got a new security system going online up there so I will have a better update on what Im going to do to keep it safe.
@@Dirtmonkey that's awesome I work in and around Dayton, Ohio roofing and siding and we have had issues with material coming up missing. Thank you for responding.
Damn I hate thieves. You spend the money you've earned to buy something you want and then someone just comes around and takes it from you. God I can't stand that. They don't get or care what they're doing to everyday shoppers and insurance payments.
It’s A shame everyone’s got to keep everything locked down these days. I had someone breaking in my machine shop (before I got the alarm put in) and they took nearly half of everything I had that didn’t need a forklift to pick it up. If the key would’ve been in the forklift that stuff would’ve probably been gone too.
Stan, I really want to see that slash pile burn on the lake video! Can you do it for a New Year's Eve party and show the video in the first week of January or heck, run it live on New Year's Eve and broadcast the party on the lake with the bonfire. What do you think? You might smoke out the culprits who took your trailer by getting everyone together and comparing stories of who lost what and when and they might show themselves thinking they could get away with mischief that night.
@@Dirtmonkey pretty sure that if you make a video of burning a brush pile in a MN lake, that you would be creating evidence that the DNR will use. There are massive fines associated with doing this due to the damage that the ash does to water quality and fish habitat when it is released into the lake in the spring.
If your house isn't too far away from the building to work Harbor freight sells a driveway alarm. It consists of two pieces. A motion detector that you can put in the building to detect movement and a receiver to put in the house. The receiver makes a sound and flashes a red light when the sensor detects movement. II runs on batteries. A trail cam hidden in the building or in the yard could help too.
@@Dirtmonkey I have the indoor and also the outdoor Wi-Fi cameras that they sell at Harbor Freight. Now I don't know if you have Wi-Fi over there but maybe you can get an extender from your house I don't know how far you're away or not but you might be able to make it work. Anyways they work off 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi They got motion sensors on them so it'll notify your phone and all you got to do is click on the app And then look at the camera that gave you the notification. You do have to buy them individually they're about 30 to 60 bucks depending on which one you want I have their outdoor one And I also have an indoor one The outdoor one is called the Geeni DCW011 outdoor camera And the other ones called the Geeni CW021 pan and tilt camera. You can move that one all around with your phone and see what's going on inside that room. You Also have a microphone and speaker on all those cameras so you can talk to somebody that's in that room or you can listen to what they're saying and you can record it. You can send it to a cloud and then you also have motion sensor so you can adjust how sensitive you want it.You can do it off your phone or your computer by downloading Geeni app. So far I've had them for about 5 months and They work great. The only thing that was a problem was getting them synced up to my wifi it took a little bit of time but I got it. You can't listen to music or anything like you tube on your phone or your computer when you have the camera on. If you just wanted to leave the camera on your screen to watch while you're listening to music can't do that its either music or camera not a big deal the performance is great. Besides those two things they're great cameras great night vision. Look into them You go to Harbor Freight and ask them to show you what they got give them the model numbers I gave you in the begining It's definitely good for the price too. You can just buy one And that's it You can buy five Doesn't matter cuz it works off an app and you control which camera you want to look at . Great videos man I'm looking forward to this snow season I live in Northern Ohio up by the lake And sometimes we get lucky and we'll get the lake effect and then other times it goes right above us and everybody out east will get it . Have a great holiday and God bless all!!!!
Got nothing but respect for you Sir , and you go get em cause what you have been through , then I am 🙏 for you and yours , because enough is enough 👍 Tam.
This will get interesting becasue I have a trap set now with security and trackers ready and have a vid coming up on how I am protecting the place without giving away all my secrets.
I’d be setting up a shooting bench across the lake with the distances already scoped out and written down so you can dial in everything for those perfect one shot hits….will slow down the thieving over there. And no I wouldn’t shovel on them, leave it there as a warning to anyone else looking to steal your stuff…..it’s a hell of a detourant to others
I had something involuntarily removed from my garage and that was the last time I ever left my home insecure. It is a huge pain in the butt to lock it all down even if I'm only going to be out of sight for only a couple minutes while I'm inside or around back but that's all it takes (as you know). Ask yourself what you would have done if you had walked out and caught the guy lifting your backpack out of your truck. I've already decided I'm going to go "Law Abiding Citizen" on him/them.
I have a GPS on all my trailers and my Gator. It's cheap insurance. I'm a security technician, so of course I have a lot of conspicuous cameras, as well a few that aren't. It sucks to work hard and get your stuff stolen. You just feel so violated. Sad part is there isn't anywhere in this country where you are safe from this. Best of luck to you.
Whats really sick is that I enjoy going after thieves. I have a trap set now with security and trackers ready and have a vid coming up on how I am protecting the place without giving away all my secrets.
@@Dirtmonkey DON'T!!! Its better to not share what systems you are using at all no matter how minor it is. It makes it easier for people to countermeasure against it. The less information you share the better. It may sound stupid but even telling people you have cameras can have people wear masks to hide their identity. Or tell people you have GPS installed just for people to search for them (and disable it) when there is a good chance they wouldn't even have though of it. Better to post a video after they are cought, and even then not explaining HOW!
@@riltjd as someone who specializes in video surveillance equipment and access control, I agree. Best not to show your security footprint on RU-vid. If you need some SME input, I’m sure we’d be happy to assist via DMs.
hi there i but a few trail cams up and check them from time to time ,they will surprise you . good luck you have a lot of good people looking out for you john
ZTRs back up hills pretty good ... I have found on several models that spin tires going forward up a hill, that they will readily back up that very same hill
Hi Stan me again 🙂 If you would like a short term solution here's what you do... Turn your property into a hunting preserve land and bring a bunch of trigger happy people from the metro area. Before you do this please let all of your neighbors know of your intentions. This is how absentee land owners solve problems 60 miles north of you. It will work long enough so you don't have to do multiple security system revamps.
Sucks all this is going on, I work over in the same location as you and we are also having a large increase in theft problems. A trailer was recovered in St. Paul, a Bluetooth battery had a last location in new hope, and our golf cart was found back behind the skatepark off 35. Stuff is really getting spread around town😂. Hope it starts getting better around here soon👊👍
You're taking this better then I would be. I wonder if the DMV could put an alert on it's VIN? I don't how someone would license this trailer, besides just running a wrong plate on it? You should post a picture of this trailer if you have one. It wouldn't hurt to have your community get involved in the search.
Ive got video of it. It was the trailer front and center when we were cleaning this pole barn out last year. We had it full of crap and junk. the flipping thieves had to clean it off to take it?!? crazy right
It's actually quite easy to get plates for stolen trailers in many states. All have to do is apply for a title for a homemade trailer. I know in my state " IL " they will send you a title and a sticker that has the serial number on it to put on the trailer. All they have to do is grind off the original serial number & restamp it.
You need to get trackers for your equipment and trailers that way if something should get stolen you can track where it is. You can even get them for some of your bigger Jack hammer's...
You could try and 'capture them' or any other intruders over there on photo or video with a Nikon Coolpix P900 Camera as they can zoom in a long, long way. I always see red when this sort of thing happens to anyone.
What about Trail Cams. maybe set up some that have the night vison too. Place around the garage and house and a couple near the lake if can get some there. Does the garage have Power going to it? Like would it be possible to set up like a DIY alarm system One where you like attach the Loudest Alarm speaker to. so if a door or garage door is opened anyone around the lake could hear it.
You should get some trail cameras and set them up in some areas that'll cover the shed and entry drive. Cheap but effective security. For your camera and other equipment bags, what about getting those Milwaukee one key tags that you can put on tools. They are a battery powered GPS tag that you can attach to a packout to keep track of it with their phone app. If your equipment ever walks off again like that, you could send the police directly to the thieves. Great vids, like following your projects.
I'd recommend buying a gun and maybe even putting up signs like "smile you're on camera" and the ones that say "trespassers will be shot, survivors will be shot again". They're cheap and can at least act as a deterrent before the real thing gets installed. And the reason I say to buy a gun is if they're already coming onto your land and essentially have a mental layout of the whole place, you dont know what they could be planning. It's a cruel world
@@garykirk1968 That's interesting, do you have any examples I could use for research? just like names or keywords from the case, because I didn't know that and would like to learn the why's and all that
@@Lysergic_ Best I can do at the moment is give you a link to a vid over on the YT. May have to look for it for just a couple.. I don't know if they go into depth about actual people being charged, can't remember? But I have heard of these things happening
@@Lysergic_ Found the video.. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dJV3uhXkWtg.html These guys are a pretty decent watch if you're interested in this type of content. Hope this helps, and be safe, and well defended brother.
What is that bush hog type machine you got there? I have a much older version but mine is very crude and dangerous, We are looking for a new one, And I saw yours. I'm always chasing people off our property DRIVES ME ++++++ Crazy Even found a couple camps setup WTF?? But nothing a tractor and chainsaw can't fix eh ;) Stay Safe Brother Love the videos
I'd be setting up one or two trail cams in those trees, even one up in the roof of the garage somewhere. They will most likely come back to scope out for anything else they can take
Dude, it's the world we live in now, I personally use Pewag chain, square link, high carbon & bolt cutter proof. Usually, when something gets stolen, I am more pissed at myself for enabling or tempting the ethically challenged.
Hey Stan it's your friend Rocco from Connecticut really sucks people have to steal instead of working for things like we do install cameras and a alarm system well always enjoy your videos there appreciated thanks your friend Rocco from Connecticut
Hey Rocco! How are you bud? I've got full security and trackers ready and have a vid coming up on how I am protecting the place without giving away all my secrets.
@@Dirtmonkey I'm glad to hear that believe me I know how it is to have equipment stolen, tools whatever they take that's yours it sucks but hopefully you will have it taken care of. Thanks be safe my friend Rocco
Hey Stan, I'm sorry to hear the bad news. Sticky 🍯 fingers strikes again. A wireless driveway alarm many work good for you at that distance 🤔. What video is that brush mulcher/ grapple attachment in? I gotta see this thing in action. Keep up the great work 👍👍
unfortunately I don't have internet or even good cell phone coverage BUT I have a trap set now with security and trackers ready and have a vid coming up on how I am protecting the place without giving away all my secrets.
I read that you setup a few things for this place to help with theft, but since you have an iPhone those $30 Apple AirTags work amazingly and are so cheap and easy to hide. Just an idea.
As I live in a tourist town with Airbnb and holidays rentals all about and the teens are on school holidays, keys are removed and cables are through all my gear. The biggest padlocks are on my trailer. They usually stop by to get fuel for their boats at 4.00 am, probably because someone forgot to buy some the day before. Pisses me off, I should leave out a Jerry-can of fuel with sugar in it. lol
Great night! Hows it going for you? We had snow and I got to plow yesterday. Whats new for you? Im not drinking anything tonight but plan on cracking open a cold Diet pepsi soon
Have you ever thought about putting GPS tracking on all of your equipment? Linxup has a ton of different options. May cost some money but in the long run it could save you a bundle. Also put one in your backpack so it is not stolen as well. Just a suggestion
You should put up some well hidden trail cameras , get the ones with the longest battery life ! Up high so they are hard to get and only let the least amount of people know their there the fewer the better !
I had a dr trimmer with that blade it's called the beaver blade. The chain is fixed and works like a circular blade with big teeth. I liked it but I'll never buy another DR because they screwed me over on fixing the machine when it was under warranty.
I was born ready for a fight. My dad taught me young how to protect myself. Where I grew up Guns were like air. Part of everyday living. Stay safe brother.
2 things I really can't stand in life, that is a liar and a thief. I really don't understand why people have to be that away. Don't know about anybody else, but I work hard for what I have. Makes you want to take preventive measures.
Trail cams are not only for game. Security cams let you know immediately when someone "Drops in". The trouble is that they will be back for seconds. I would have it set up that an alarm lets me know when someone is rooting around your property. Crime isn't just in the big cities anymore.
Im counting on them coming back. I have a trap set now with security and trackers ready and have a vid coming up on how I am protecting the place without giving away all my secrets.
It's damn shame Stan..I have some land and had a few problems.I put up game cameras..I also always have a weapon when i venture thru my property..Good luck...
Thankls Robert and stay safe brother. I will be putting up a new vid soon. I have a trap set now with security and trackers ready and have a vid coming up on how I am protecting the place without giving away all my secrets.
Quik Story ! Small town 2 weeks ago 2 police officers stop a stolen van filled with stolen tools on a rural back. fight ensues and in spite of being Tasered the subject eludes capture. Subsequent search with K9s comes up empty! 5 hours later the subject emerges from the woods and attempts to steal a contractors work truck , fight ensues / Cops and Ambulance respond , 1 transported to the local Hospital ! You dont screw with a contractor !!
Stan have y'all thought about make a floating dock barge to move some of you self propelled equipment and stuff across the lake? We use one on the river here in NC to access hunting property in River bottoms for floating pontoons in the deck work really good
so I have a bobcat S220, I purchased used in 2013. its been great. but I'm looking at getting a new! skid steer next year. today I talked to a guy that has a kubota skid steer and likes it a lot. what do you all think of Kubota?
I couldn't do that but thought about it. I would be to worried about a dog or something getting in there. BUT I have a trap set now with security and trackers ready and have a vid coming up on how I am protecting the place without giving away all my secrets.
