Glad to see you back and glad that you are ok! If I may offer my opinion on something.... While you are right about the lack of notifications, I don't think that is the reason your channel isn't doing well. It seems to be the total lack of interest and effort you put into it. Or at least that is the way it appears. As you said today... You couldn't get ambition to make a video. Please don't take this the wrong way. I'm just trying to offer some advise in the hope that you will do better. You have walked away from the channel for months at a time more than once. What will the viewers do when you disappear? My guess is they just leave. I don't get notifications either but checked back every so often to see if there were any new videos. But how many people just left? Anyway, glad you're ok, and glad to see you got a new shop! Are you renting the space? Or did you buy it? It looks really nice, and well lit with a lot of space! Sure hope the woodworking business works out!
It is not lack of ambition. Read my description. I explain more there. I lost my internet for one thing. Then I lost my camera. But the biggest issue was time. There are only so many hours in a day. Starting a new business takes a lot of hard work and dedication. I was only sleeping 4 to 6 hours a night. Well, still only getting max 6.
Troy, thanks. I just now read your video description after you mentioned it. I wish you would have mentioned it in the video. Not for me because I will always just ask questions out of curiosity to find out what happened. But for everyone who doesn't know. Internet... I understand completely, also having had internet and computer issues myself. Also understand how hard it is to get a business going. As for your shop.... The bad guys are going to try to find out where it is anyway. Which sucks because for the business to succeed you have to promote it. I just hope they gave up and went away! You're woodworking business.... If you do professional quality work and show it on video, my guess is you'll do great!
Thank you for your words. Just saw this. It went to spam. Yes I was hiding my business for a while. No the trolls never stopped harassing me. They put GPS on my vehicles and found me they say. Its easy enough cause Ken follows us everywhere. Grocery stores, restaurants, black friday shopping. He is always there. You cannot run a business in hiding.
Glaid you are doing ok. I figured you were quite busy ! It has been crazy in NY buy me, That hurricane that came threw texas got us in ny with 2- EF2 tornadoes and we were on national news . only minor injuries hear and grid down 2 days in spots. The Internet and cell phones went down as well. My GMRS and CB with amanature radio working just fine. I have no base antenna at this time . all portable. lots of storm damage in NY. Last summer we had wildfires from Canada . Crazy ! Hope to see some off grid projects ! With all this crazy weather all over ,we need backup power. Stay safe. Love the video's !
Glad you're back Troy! I've been watching you from your early days right before you built the old off grid tiny home. Very inspiring! Hope to see more new vids. Also, how is Chris?
Just found your channel while looking for examples of how people get their wind turbines up in the air. I leave the luxuries of civilization and return to my farm after ten years -- this time as an off the grid cadet. Can't wait to explore the subjects you've already covered and learn about new projects you have lined up!
Welcome to my channel. Thanks for following. My videos go back to 2013 when I moved into a camper in the woods during a blizzard, fully off the grid. Enjoy! I hope to show more off grid videos coming up.

Hey Troy, Man I've been thinking about you alot in the last few weeks wondering what's been going on, if everything is ok, because I haven't seen any videos from you here for months. Glad to see you've been busy and that there wasn't any negative problems. Great to see you back. I hope everything is going good for all of you. I'm looking forward to the new videos! Cheers, Matt - Toronto, Canada
