There are times when the work can get to you. I have felt overwhelmed the past 3-4 months with everything demanding my time and me seeing that I have been out of balance... I've had to put my head down and take out one thing at a time. I wouldn't have been able to do all this without such a great team at Alpha, my wonderfully understanding wife, and, above all, the understanding that all of this is not my plan, but a gift from the creator for His will.

Keep things in perspective everyone. Life will move forward and we can actually take comfort in that. Surround yourself with good people and make sure you are one to them...

So y'all have asked for it and I think I am finally going to deliver!

I am commissioning a large fertilizer plant in the Midwest United States this week. Monday is a holiday, so I will be the only person on site. With that in mind I am going to do a "Commissioning 101" stream where I go through my process managing large startups. It will probably be a little bit shorter than normal, but it will contain a lot of first hand experience!

I will probably get started at 10:00 Eastern US! I look forward to seeing you!

Alright everyone! Here it is! The first attempt at a Discord server! Everyone should be able to chat in the text channels and if I recognize you from the chat I'll upgrade you to "Chat Veteran" that will open the voice channels up. So if you are wanting access to voice you have to chat (or comment) on some streams or videos! Anyways, be respectful, and lets keep this community growing!

So, I have been wanting to do some content on mechanical design (Solidworks, 3D printing, Robotics). The problem with the YouTube algorithm is that if I make content that only some of my subscriber's watch then it will not put that content out there to new viewers. I am leaning towards starting a "mechanical design" version of this channel to try and get all of this content out to new people, but there is a lot of stuff that I would be doing that would be relevant to this channel too. However, if it was more of a "Build it" channel I could do a lot more than just professional work (think home automation, amazing cosplay work, really cool car mods). So here is a poll about what content you would want on this or future channels...

So, do you remember how I tried teaching everyone how to free up time to take a vacation? Well proof is in the picture right? I'll be flying back from this office tomorrow and plan on trying to get a live stream Monday. What do you guys want to talk about? Drives, HMIs, PLC, starters? Shoot, yall want to talk about 3D printing, welding, material properties? I have a clear mind now, what are you all working on? See you soon!

I've had to channel my inner Bruce Lee to unlock a new level of programming this week. Join the livestream tomorrow at 11 to get a glimpse of what is possible with Siemens PLCs!

Cold morning + programming = get to look like one of the cool kids... What are y'all working on this week?

Thank you to all who have been commenting and joining the community! We've got another clipped video dropping tomorrow morning and a livestream coming Friday. I'm thinking about doing a PID tuning stream. What else would y'all like to see?
