Are you a new food business owner? If you are, well, you're probably making these new rookie mistakes. That's probably killing your business. I know this because I see this every day with my students and consultation clients.

Make sure you guys keep watching. Hello friends. My name is Wilson and I help new food entrepreneurs build a thriving small business and a profitable food business.

So if you guys like videos like these, make sure you guys smash that like button because it shows me and the team that this is the type of content you enjoy. So then that way I can make more of this for you. So go ahead and smash that like button. If you're looking at starting a food business, but you just don't know where to start or you want to take that plunge, but you don't have the experience to start a food business, you could very well end up making a very costly mistake or focusing on items, things that you're doing. That's going to be very costly to your time, your resources and money. And that's the reason why I created this free master class where it's a step-by-step process teaching you, showing you how you can leverage Instagram to build your online food business, to build your cloud kitchen, your food truck. This, my friends, are lessons and learnings, mistakes that I wish I knew when I first started. So if you're interested, go into the link below and sign up for my free master class. The first rookie mistake is not doing your preparation, not doing your preparation and not being prepared leads to a lot of things that is very detrimental to you and your business. We're talking about high stress, anxiety. We're talking about burnout. We're talking about mistakes. We're talking about things that will actually kill you and your business. Imagine just for a second, you jumping into the business, spending in thousands of dollars and time building this business without doing the proper research. How confident are you going to be with your marketing, with your menu, with your pricing?  How confident are you going to be able to share with them? And not only that, guys, the lack of proper planning also leads to a lot of bad decisions, hecticness.  So you might as well take the effort and time into doing proper planning. Trust me, friends, this is going to save you so much more headache down the road. And plus, if you're going to do it first, might as well do it in the beginning. So what do I mean by proper planning? Doing the basic work like writing a business plan. If you have seen my previous video, we talk about how do you build the core competency of a business? And that requires a lot of critical thinking and strategic thought as well. The critical research and the planning part allows you to get more insight on your customer profile. Who it is that you're trying to serve? Where are you going to have your location? How many walk by traffic is there? What is the menu you're going to have? What are the pricing that you want to make sure you have in order for you to be profitable? What is your SWOT analysis? What are some of the strengths that you have over your competitors? What are some of the threats that could potentially put you out of business? What is your vision? Do you have clarity on where you want to go and where you want to bring your food business? So then that way, you can always come back to this.  Second part of planning means planning your operations and your finances. People often joke that when you leave your nine to five, you're going into a 24 seven glorified job. There are some truth to this if you do not have proper planning. But if you have proper planning, initially it could be a lot of hours because you're building this machine that's going to automatically run for you. But after a while, after this machine is built, then this is the time you can step away and still have your business run for you. So that's the reason why you must have a head start in order for you to build the process, the systems. So other people can step in your shoe to help you run your business for you. And if you fail to plan for your finances, that's a big no-no.  That's the reason why. And that's how a lot of rookies fail and lose money right from the get-go. The second mistake is not educating yourself. In today's world, there's no reason for you not to educate yourself. There's YouTube, there's Google. A lot of people might try winging it, but that is not the smartest way to move forward because that could lead to some very costly mistakes, especially in the food and beverage world. If anything goes wrong, it's going to be a disaster for you because you need to be a master in a lot of different things. For example, you need to know how to cook, you need to know your numbers, accounting, finances, marketing, logistics, equipment, and facing your customers. And each one of these mistakes can be very costly. For example, wrong equipment, that's tens of thousands of dollars, wrong menu, that can lead to thousands of dollars in missed profits, wrong location. This is a deadly mistake. Tens of thousands of dollars. So that means even before your food business is open, you could already be in racked up hundreds of thousands of dollars from your short-term decisions and your lack of foresight into the long-term. So why would you want to wing how to open up a business when there are mentors out there like me who create the free resources for you and even the paid resources for people to follow if they want a more step-by-step guidance? And truth is guys, when I first started my ice cream shop, I wish I had someone like myself. I wish there was the luxury of someone online willing to share their experiences, the mistakes that they made, because I made some very costly mistakes. Most notably, a $30,000 mistake that I could easily avoid if only there was someone a little bit more experienced that I could learn from. $30,000 mistake guys. And I don't want that to happen to you because you're taking a massive risk and investment in building something that you love. And that's the reason why I'm creating these weekly videos to share with you the mistakes that I've made, the lessons that I've learned, the tips to make you a more successful business owner. And for those of you who are actually serious in starting and operating your very own food business, then I have this free masterclass and this paid mentorship program where I share with you the lessons that I've learned, the templates, the resources, the step-by-step guide, and the support that you need in order for you to build a profitable food business. Truth is guys, if I could go back in time, spend a few thousand dollars so that way I know exactly what to avoid to save me from making the $30,000 silly mistake. Have someone on my side in my corner to share with me and walk me through this lonely journey. I would 100% take that. So if you're serious about your food business, then I invite you to join me in the free masterclass in the link below where we cover how we can build your own food business so that way we can be in the journey together. The third rookie mistake is taking the wrong advice.  So we're going to put that aside. You are the learners. Now with feedback and advice, we oftentimes ask our friends to ask our family, ask our customers, look at reviews, and we end up having a flood of different feedback, opinion, because everyone has an opinion on something. They're going to say this is too sweet, this is too sour, texture is no good, so on and so forth. And we end up reiterating our product so much that we end up losing our voice, end up not serving a single person. In this space, we need to identify who it is that are our audience. We need to identify that and we need to create everything to cater towards this specific demographic. As a creative, as someone that wants to bring something special to the world, if you do not find your voice, if you do not identify what makes you special, what is your secret, what is your specialty, what types of food you really focus on. You're going to end up losing your voice, you're going to end up not having the confidence for you to continue to cook because you don't seem to please everyone. It's hard to please everyone and that's not your job to please everyone. And you're not going to be able to create a thriving business because when you speak to everyone, you speak to no one. I'll give you a quick example. One cake shop that I really, really enjoy locally in Vancouver is called Remy. And the reason why I enjoy their cakes is because their cakes are not that sweet, yet it's aesthetically pleasing, texture is beautiful, not too filling, light and fluffy. And the reason why I like it is because it's just, it just fits my profile. And so does a lot of my other friends because we're Asian, this is what we enjoy, it seems like. And whereas Caucasian friends, when they try on this cake, they're like, Hey, Wilson, did they add enough sugar? Doesn't seem like it's enough taste to this cake. Clearly, there's a different taste profile because of our demographic. And Remy does a great job because he is catering to one type of demographic and one very specific clientele. And that's the reason why guys, make sure you guys know exactly who it is that you're serving. Being able to cater the experience specifically for them, not only will your business boom, your self-esteem would boom, you would become a better provider for your restaurant and your family as well. So make sure you guys take the right advice. And if this is something that you struggle with is to identify who it is that you're serving, being able to understand their fears, being able to understand what it is that they like, their cycle graphics, being able to cater the experience to your demographic. Then I welcome you guys to join my free masterclass in the link below. This is a masterclass where I share with you a step-by-step process to leverage your Instagram account.  Definitely guys, click in the link below and I'll see you guys in the masterclass. So there you go, friends. I really hope you enjoyed this video. I share with you the three rookie mistakes, things that I wish I had learned right from the get go. These things that really hinder people from achieving any type of success. And if you can unblock yourself from these three mistakes, friends, you're going to be able to have much more success in your career. Once again, I hope you enjoyed this video guys. If you guys do, what do you do? The only thing that I request is for you to smash that like button. Otherwise, I'll see you guys in the next video.


Perception is of the utmost importance in Paul Thomas Anderson's Phantom Thread. Our self-perception, how others perceive us, and perhaps most importantly, how we think others perceive us. For example, the character of Barbara Rose is someone who has no self-confidence and is able to see through the facade that others put up. She is an inherently weak person and allows herself to become the victim. Despite having money and despite trying to make up for her poor self-image through buying one of Reynolds' dresses, she is unable to see any good in herself. Reynolds is also inherently weak. He needs constant supervision and constant care. He is good at one thing, and his entire self-image and self-perception is wrapped up in how others view his dresses. His sister, Cyril, manages the business, manages his day, and she even manages his personal relationships. All that he needs to worry about is the dressmaking, and this is something that stems from his past trauma. The one thing that he is good at comes at the cost of real emotional pain, as he remembers his mother. He puts on a front, one of confidence and power. He loves how others appreciate his work, but he also knows that the biggest reason why is because of appearances. When he meets Alma, she is immediately able to see through this facade. In many ways, she sees herself in him and he sees himself in her. What draws him to her isn't her beauty, it's the mistake that she makes. He sees the humanity in her, it's her imperfections that he is drawn to, and while everyone else may try to hide these, she embraces them. She has a love of self that allows her to accept her flaws, just as Reynolds does. When they meet for the first time, his love is blatantly obvious. He first tests her to make sure that she can support him. After she passes, so to speak, he shows off his worth by making a dress for her, something he does out of passion, not for financial gain. Alma sees the good in him, she sees that he needs someone, but that he isn't able to put this into words. She sees his weaknesses and how uncomfortable he is, and giving her caring nature chooses to show him the love that she knows that he needs. When they get back to London, he falls back into his cyclical traits. He needs someone to break him out, which is the reason that he is so drawn to Alma. He thinks that she can change his life, but he doesn't make it easy. The imperfections that he is drawn to simultaneously annoy him. They move him out of his comfort zone, and he needs to choose either his relationship with Alma or his passion of dressmaking. He chooses the latter, and it is up to Alma to make him choose her. She knows that in order for him to find happiness, he needs to break his patterns. Early on, Cyril tells Alma that he doesn't like butter. Despite that, Alma tries to make Reynolds like what she wants, but he refuses to change his ways organically. As I think you know Alma, I prefer my asparagus with oil and salt. Knowing this, you've prepared the asparagus with butter. She eventually finds success through poisoning him, making him weak, stripping him away from the persona that he uses to hide from the world. We see her do this twice, but it would be safe to assume that she has been doing this regularly throughout the entire movie. This allows her to have the power that she needs to support him. Every good moment in their relationship comes directly from her giving care to him. Even their first night together started with her bringing him food as his waitress. He berates and emotionally abuses her to break her down. While down, she tries to regain the power by poisoning him, making him physically weak. It's only when the two are at their most vulnerable are they happy together. It's a relationship driven by abuse and negativity, yet the result is something positive. It begs the question, is it okay to do something negative if it means in the long run something positive comes from it? The two both agree to live in this constant cycle of negativity. By the end of the film, Reynolds is more than willing to eat the omelette, even though he knows it'll make him sick because he knows that Alma will be there to care for him. It's also worth pointing out that he is more than willing to eat the omelette despite the butter. Alma was able to make him live the way that she wants him to. Cyril knows all that is going on, but she also knows that for the first time, Reynolds is happy. Alma is bringing his life out of chaos and providing the care and support that he always needed. In my video discussing Paul Thomas Anderson's entire filmography, I spoke about the importance of taking control of your own life, venturing out on your own and becoming your own master. Reynolds is unable to do this, much like many of Anderson's other protagonists, he must turn to the care of someone else.  Hey everyone, I hope you enjoyed. Phantom Thread is wonderful, PTA has made so many great movies and it's hard stacked ranking them, but this is definitely towards the top. I feel like this is his most Kubrickian film yet, there were some shots that felt like they were taken right out of a Clockwork Orange, but I feel like the movie most closely aligns itself with Barry Lyndon. And like Barry Lyndon, it probably won't be the film that draws in many fans, but instead it will be one that highlights his mastery of the craft and how great he is with character dynamics and just so much of what he does right is shown off in this movie. Anyway, if you're new here make sure you hit that subscribe button, I have a new video going up every Saturday. Until then I put a link to my video on PTA and his overarching struggle of his characters which covers all the films except for this one. So please check that out if you're interested and I will see you next week. Thanks for watching.


Ah, alright, well let's try the cheese. Two, three, you really let me get away with that. How's it going everybody? DatoDoy here, back with another round of Dragon Ball Fighter's Rite matches, this time with a team of Beerus, Base Goku and Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta, and it looks like we're going up against a team with Fidel... Oh yeah, it's the all-girl team, Fidel Majin, uh, Android 21, sorry, I always say Majin. Uh, that is off, oh, and we get caught by the overhead part of that. And the down heavy, it was a little obvious, I'll give it up. So anyway, the point of this team, if you can't tell right now, is to just, I can't believe I landed back into that. Guard cancel out, okay, we're good. Let's take a little minute here to readjust ourselves, oh man, he's flying at me. Ah, the Vegeta assist is not the greatest to rely on. Alright, there we go, okay, so now that we got a hit, usually you just want to get the Beerus out, use Base Goku, uh, or Blue Vegeta, uh, Blue Vegeta as in have him out and have Base Goku, keep him locked down for some high-low mix-ups, uh, not the greatest team in the world, but it can be pretty devastating in the right hands, like I guess that's every team in Dragon Ball Fighters. Okay, level three knockdown, do we spark this early? We got a lot of blue life. Yeah, let's go ahead and, let's go ahead and spark. Oh, nice. Ah, that's a shame, it was going great, but we just barely got enough out there to, oh no, that's punishment territory, yup, two and two. This is actually not the worst when it comes to Videl, but even this might be enough. DP, get off of the boy. Get off of me, we take sliding all day every day. Ah, that was the wrong one, that was the wrong one. Switch out. Oh no. Okay, what's happening? What's going on? What is going on? He's going crazy. Maybe I'm going crazy, what about that situation? Maybe we want to tag out. Uh, uh, uh, okay, again, another situation where we tag here, nice and low to the ground, should be easy enough to miss it entirely. All right, that's a knockout, that is 100% a knockout. I just, I'm just, I'm just a special kind of person, dude. I'm just that kind of dude. All right, let's try to get some beer as mixups going, it's all I got left. Oh my goodness, we have nothing left. That was kind of cool, it made him hold that reflect. Okay, okay, I see you, I see you Goku. Is this enough to get the kill? It looks like it, let's try it. One, two, three, up, down, you know what, let's just spend it all, just to look cool. All right, I want you out of my field. Hakai, nice. Right out into the scoreboard, the crowd, they paid so much money to be here, they ain't watching anything, they're watching specs on the arena floor. Let me live, let me live. Ah, and they brought, they brought out the second Jumbo Tron and everything too. All right, but this is fine, like we said, Blue Vegeta can get the job done in this situation too. It's just we have to get a clean hit. And that's looking like it's going to be the hard part here. Nice reflect though, we keep it nice and calm. And we're going to take sliding here just to make sure we get every drop of that sparking out. Oh, right through the big bang. I try to use that move way too often. I'm like, I know it's trash, but look at the sparking damage. Oh, all right, nice. 2L actually connects, this is great. Now we can get a knockdown, everything we want to see here. All right, finish. Oh, but you've got to, if you're going to do that, you have to commit. Nice, Blue Vegeta actually comes out, takes the final knockout. And that's bad, if she would have committed to that reflect, she could have kept us in the corner there. Maybe I could have mixed it up. I don't really know, but yeah, dropping it after two reflects, that's just prime Vegeta territory. I can't believe the Super Dash dodged that. I can believe that I got down heavy by that, because that was a bad Super Dash. Down tech. All right, we're tagging, we're tagging. If anything cheap comes out, anything too big. Oh, that wasn't big enough. If any window big enough, we were out of there, dude. We were taking the next train to see a town. All right, let's try to get him back in that corner, even if it's going to be fake. Overhead. Oh no, we don't jump. We don't jump, we just micro dash up and rock five heavy. All right, oh, down to the ground. Hold that Beerus orb. Hold that DP just in case you try something. But she did, DP again. I can't believe Beerus is 5H is that bad. I should start punishing that with a 2M. There we go, there we go. That's what I like to see. Can we make it to the corner? Oh, punish with a 2M, that's going to be a lot of damage. Definitely more than enough to kill. Level one, level one, level one. Maybe even, oh, that's a level three. OK, that's a lot more bar than I expected. Sorry you had to be turned into a fruitcake, Beerus, but sometimes them's the brakes. All right, well, let's try to cheese. Two, three. You really let me get away with that. I can't believe we got away with just a raw level three charge. OK, well, this is pretty decent damage, I guess. It's not the best in the world. Oh, OK, OK, vanish, vanish. Jeez, come on, calm down. Don't down heavy. Tell me that wasn't sick. Get that. I don't like blocking, dude. And you're blocking a lot. Stop blocking. Oh, I was going to say stop blocking. I see you got the memo a little early. And I guess I'll take that fax back. Yeah, I don't know how comfortable my blue Vegeta is with a 1v3 comeback. Oh, wow, I jumped at the very last second and got hit during those frames. I have to be ready for a Super Dash. OK, OK, that's not the worst thing in the world. If we get 18, we can start making this comeback. I'm getting sick and tired of running up instead of jumping. I just keep messing that up. No hard knockdown, OK. We'll call that what it is, probably a missed opportunity. No, that stray hits not enough. There we go, vanish connects. Leaving us with exactly zero bars in our pocket, but zero bars is more than being dead, I guess. OK, no knockdown, but just the softest of knockdowns. She's not clicking buttons in the air. Let's go. Finally, some pressure that we can actually continue. I don't know why she fought. I thought I was trying to read the sparking, but that read will also work. Blue Vegeta, can we get up to three bars to actually stand a chance? Goodbye, cruel world. Oh, I know we said we wanted three bars, but we need sliding. It wasn't a safe jump. Wait, we might not be dead. We might be actually. Oh, that was so much damage. That was raw. Yikes. Oh, we should have safe jumped. Oh, we shouldn't have jumped at all. The level three was in the back of my mind. I just tried to put it out. I was like, it's going to be we'll make it safe. And I messed it up for that out there. Nice, decent damage, of course. And then hold out the ball. Oh, the Super Dash takes it out. I don't know. I probably shouldn't get too frisky with that. Full screen. That's a Super Dash waiting to happen. Drop me, drop me. Okay, look for the deep heap, Spinnerio. Oh, there it is, deep heap. Okay, okay, that's pretty good. Oh, guard cancel. And boom, bada bing, bada boom. That's a free Videl. Looking mighty, forgive me that. Nice, okay, good, good. Ooh, catch them with a little bit of an overhead. It's time for Beerus to go to work, honestly. It's been too long. Okay, back up. Super Dash, no Super Dash, that's fine. Oh, big lag. Big lag and we get hit, so all those orbs are gone. That's two level ones to death right here, if she wants it to be. And it is, goodbye. Bye, bye, Beerus. This is Beerus' time. He's gone. All right, come on, base Goku, save me here. We dropped the Sparking Combo. Oh, but hello, other Sparking Combo. How many bars have we used? You know what, we're just not gonna risk it. Kaioken, Keyblast, oh, sends him out. All right, I have a good, we should probably switch out into Vegeta Blue. Like I said, he can use Goku's assist just as well. And if he dies, you know what, Kaioken times 20. That's all good. Let's go though, a little bit of a reset. Oh, nice back dash, look at the tail range. Great whiff punish there. It's the mix, what's the mix?  That was bad. Level three, no. Or maybe just saving it. Tried to down heavy there, guard cancel. Oh no, okay. We're both going for similar stuff here. That should be enough. Come on, base Vegeta. Vanish, tag, that's it. That's enough. Base Vegeta, I meant Blue Vegeta. I combined base Goku and Blue Vegeta, what a combo. All right, but that's two one, right? If I'm correct, that's two one. This should not be a bonus match. And if it is, I'm just not gonna allow it to be in my head. I need the extra confidence. How many times does that happen this match? Okay, she kinda got cheated there. Damn, we just clapped nothing. She dodged the God of Destruction's clap. I'm getting hyped.  Okay, how many bars do we need here? Two, nice. All right, that's good. That's great, actually. Beerus gets the heal. Blue Vegeta's about to go to work. I think we backed that, no, we go right in. That's exactly what we wanna see, dude. Blue Vegeta's about to go to work. Woo, let's go. Hello, Blue Vegeta. Full level three just to take him out. I don't know why we had to do it, but we had to do it to him. All right, we could easily probably get to five bars here. There we go, that's gonna be enough. And we're just gonna save it up. We're close to the next corner as it is. Wow, she actually test me there. She test me, but we get off Scott free. That was crazy. Read that. Down heavy. It's just all going according to, uh-huh. Oh, we missed. Level three.  You can end it. Blue Vegeta finally came out to play. Oh, Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta, though. Hopefully you guys enjoyed this rank session. If you did, make sure to let me know down below if you have a favorite moment. We didn't actually get to do too much of what we wanted with the team, but I'm glad Blue Vegeta came to show up in that last match.

Legacy vs. Blended Retirement Which retirement system is right for you? Imagine that this represents the path of your military career and retirement. On the left is the Legacy Retirement System. On the right, the new Blended Retirement System, or BRS. The Legacy System has served the DOD well since the late 1940s. BRS, however, provides additional options to attract and manage a military force in an evolving global economy. It goes into effect in January 2018. Let's see how the two systems compare as you arrive at the 20-year mark of your career. Both the Legacy and Blended Retirement System provide monthly retired pay after serving at least 20 years, or obtaining 20 qualifying years in the National Guard or Reserve. Under the Legacy Retirement System, your monthly retired pay is computed like this. 2.5% times your years served times your base pay at retirement, so 20 years equates to 50%. With BRS, the multiplier is reduced to 2%.  For National Guard and Reserve, both retirement formulas are essentially the same, but to determine your equivalent years of active service, divide your retirement points by 360%. With both plans, if you contributed to the Thrift Savings Plan, you'll have that too, along with earnings on those investments. Under the Legacy Retirement System, you have not received any government contributions to your TSP. Under BRS, at a minimum, the government has contributed with the amount of 1% of your basic pay to your TSP. Plus, if you have contributed to the TSP, you'll have that along with government matching funds of up to 5% of your basic pay and any earnings on those investment. To learn more, visit the blended retirement system resource website, take the BRS opt-in course, or visit your installation's personal financial counselor. Legacy vs. blended retirement, which retirement system is right for you?

Melanie and I went to Anyway, but I'm not really sure but we also did this other one where what is it?   I don't know why it is this way I don't really know where it originated and why it is but you're supposed to stand very still so We were trying to stand still but Garrett Garrett can't stand still like just period He can't stand still and then I wouldn't shut up. Yeah, so he was like so the real one that I posted I had to actually put in slow-mo It's like 25% speed To catch me in between talking but Kim was moving so I just left it Yeah, yeah, that one we left it where I'm moving even though I'm supposed to be standing still and then He tells me okay, you got to stand still and then just stare at the camera, and I'm like, all right I got it but you're not to say anything. Well, no Saying that was good. All right, but you're not there yet.  Don't blink Try not to talk. He's doing everything he tells me not to do. He's doing it and then I yelled at him I was like, I'm doing it. Why are you continuing to talk to the whole thing? And so he posted that and I wanted to see if anybody saw it because Part of me is a little bit embarrassed And then I wanted to see if any of you guys thought I was mean to poor Garrett But I was like, look I saw Helen was like Yes, Kim tell him Kim.

Then we replace our shirts or try different things like tank tops and we did do the uh Baseball tees in the short sleeve. I actually had that on over the weekend testing that one out So, yeah A lot of kids and Garrett may get logoed here. Oh the other day at the store somebody is like Let me guess your Garrett How do you know me Any pointed at my shirts and that was a little bit of advertising And they're all black I don't even have to worry about going over the edges Can you guys hear that?

Yes Didn't we see did we see modest mouse? We saw them I have not they're on my list. They're on my list of things I need to see I thought we may have seen them at firefly Nope, they were not at firefly that would have been epic because that would have been vampire weekend and fire and modest mouse and group flow all in one weekend I don't know if I could have handled all that That was it. That was it. Oh, and and major laser. I mean, yeah That was such a good firefly. We're like the best firefly. I think Yeah, I'm glad we were there for it.

We drove separate so you didn't know how this Let everybody know that it happened again yesterday Yeah, doesn't surprise me Yesterday wasn't my fault I forgot to put my cup in the cup holder and instead I put it on the armrest and when I pulled away I spilled the coffee on me. I need another I need another sponge. Go fish Or scissors so I can clip off the end of two of these Ouch. We are we are so efficient today. There we are. These ones.  They are nice and easy. I feel like I'm getting better at making them So that they're faster to put together. Yeah, you know what? I think what's happening is Your teeth. Yeah, I'm doing them on Tuesdays. Your Tuesday painting is making you realize Oh wait. Yeah, if I do this or if I do that. Yes Yeah, good for me. Yeah Worked out well Yeah, I want to make sure it's easy for me to put it back when I didn't have to do it I would get bonkers How are you gonna make it red? The leaf I am. I didn't make the hat red. Good, cool. I like the red But it's not like too much red. I was afraid the red might be overpowering for this I didn't want it to get too dark. I want the colors to be too dark I'm gonna try something. Just gonna wing it out there and see how it works and how it looks Yes, Tyra said you need to make sure you don't have any small breaks that can do more damage That's what that's what I was saying and now he's saying well now it's too late I've already it's already been like this for a while Which do you recommend more the X tool or the glow forge? And she loves us. That's it depends. I like them both for different reasons. Yep, it does. It depends Like if you're doing a lot of engraving and stuff What color is that? That's real red. Okay. If you're doing a lot of engraving and stuff I would say X tool If you're doing a lot of cutting Like if you're doing a lot of cutting yeah and a lot of cutting I would say glow forge, but if you're doing a lot of cutting I'd say skip them both and just get a A big laser. All right. Well, you know the thing is you start with something Small and then work your way up at least that's the way we did it. Yeah Because yes, that is I needed something with training wheels. I wasn't just gonna go in Look I'm gonna squirt this paint paint.  That looks pretty good. That's an interesting Like hold it way up in the overhead so that they can because you can't see the dimension What that added I really did add a little something I don't know. Can you tell on the camera? Well, you have to hold it still Give me that It's gonna be very hard to see but I'll see if I can show you there you go Can you guys see that he's added a little so it kind of looks like it's an uneven rusty paint job And you got to see all the paint from my fingers I might come in with a different color too So funny. Look, let me just show you who Garrett really is I went into this paint bucket to see if I could find some of these tiny little micro q-tips And then there's a package of crackers in here. He's always walking around with a package of these tow house crackers They're a jam man.  Well, Jason, I sold it for too little. Yep. I yelled at her It went too fast Um, I sold it for 65 Um, based on the price of the wood and the kit It should be closer to 75 Is that what we decided? Yep, or even 85. I said 85 That's our that we have that disagreement a lot though. What do you guys think of that? Is that looking like? Oh, yeah I mean, let's let me help Oh, wait, do I stop and that paint begins That was a tough one. I'm good at this Hey, where's the where's the aquarium one? Can I see? Let me see the uh the dark one. Yeah I'm still going in Trying to give this truck a little bit of pop Techie grandma finally getting to join me watching you live you guys inspired me to reorganize our craft room Oh, techie grandpa gets to join me watching us live.

I don't even have any tools at home anymore We're barely at home anymore I forgot what it looked like the other day I was like, ooh, is that my house? Hey, how's that looking? Thanks sweet looking So similar More pink You think it's pink? We're out of a lot of pink. I feel like in the end it might have been mostly pink Uh, I told you this thing. Uh, can you have me that maybe that childlike over there? Wait, what? What's that? The other pink this one's like out out This one's close Yeah, I mean I would just go with that. I'd be like they're gnomes I try the pink. I did I tried the pink ones and it just was A little pink to pink. All right, we're gonna go with this I did a version of pink yellow and white. You know, he's really getting creative Will somebody else be able to duplicate your super cool paint job? Yeah, I'm just dabbing on a roller on places Give me a cool rust look. I like it Yeah, that's what I was thinking. It kind of was a little rusty I said I was about done. So then I slowed way down Yeah Well, we don't have that timeline anymore. So now you're just like Game on Yep, for those that are following my Uh, weight watchers journey journey. Yeah, I wasn't I wasn't that great this week, but I was down a half a pound It's hard on the weekends celebrate all Wednesday And Garrett went with me. He went with me Thursday morning to the meeting and sure did sat in the air And I listened he sat behind me. He didn't even sit beside me He sat behind me, which I thought was so funny as she starts talking you move And then she looked at you. Well, I couldn't How was I I didn't want to move while she was talking and then that lady never took a breath. So I just kind of sat then I forgot I was gonna move The lady well, it was three seats and they were people are still doing a little social distancing, right? And so I didn't want to sit right next to right between Garrett and this other woman So I moved up a row that had four into seats And Garrett was like see you I wasn't like see you. I'll see you afterwards See you Justin wants to know what's going on. He was cleaning the garage. I forgot about the line Oh, yeah, I forgot I'll do a little this is not a very great picture But we're gonna do another version of the gnomes. We did last week We had them just sitting there by themselves. Yeah, so you put them in the back of a truck And then we are doing farm fresh pumpkins And this one I think it looks very flat on the page, but it looks great All cut out. So and I think he's doing a really neat For those of you Who are watching him work. This is kind of what he's got so far He's got the two shades of red on there And some of that aquarium, which is a little bit of blue That kind of looks like a blue gray So you can see what's happening over here Just trying to give us some interest. Hey, do you have to put that silver on? I use the rolling Do you just want to dab it you can put it on the roller and dab it. Oh, you want to do this You can all right. I just wanted this heavily I can use that I can get you a paper towel if you want to use this plate No No, no, no Is this wait, is this gray? Is this white? Oh, I'm sorry. I think maybe I reached her the wrong one Oh, maybe sabotage Jerry says she made it sliding in at the last minute. Oh, hey, Jerry He was busy at work. Well, let me not get it. So Kim was yelling at me about your mountains Yeah, Jerry I'm gonna come back. Wait till I come back. I'm gonna put another coat on my back Don't be yelling from in there You guys think I yell when we do our videos You can tell her to shoot Yeah, look There you go Beep beep All right, I think I'm gonna start gluing all my stuff together. I have a lot of letters to glue down I just need to put another coat on the backer. So Jerry He I think he did a great job on your Um, water tank, but the mountains were just a little too literal And I think he should do a different mountain design in the background and really make it look like mountains and have that The dark grays and the light grays so I gave him another version that I think he should use And so I think he's gonna update that for you. So Um, I know you told him that it looks good, but I think it can look better The science for you, but she vetoed it That's what he said. Jerry already said it looks good. And I was like, well I think you could do it better Just FYI it's coming It's coming I'll work on it again tonight. All right. I haven't done the back of my truck. Oh, you guys can't see anything now I keep stacking paint. Look I keep stacking Good luck Well, oh, and then put the overhead back so that they can kind of see what we're doing We'll put these up out of the way There you go. Now we're back Awesome patina. Yes, that's what he's doing. It looks good Oh, it's not good enough. Oh, I didn't glue it together yet. Not glue. But you can't mess it up. He'll just add to the look Add to the look of a very old truck truck, no truck Um, and did you this? I need this uh Aquarium And can you reach the paint from where you were? What paint? Aquarium? This one? Yep Oh, go go gadget arms. Hey, what was the cat's name? No idea none zero What was it? Hey, wasn't zero the dog's name?

Yeah Is that an older? I don't know. I was still watching like Yeah, Joe and then when that would come on, I'd leave Like 86 I think Yeah, he said that the other day in the car that was very funny What were we talking about and you were like, I don't know If that came out in 86, I didn't see it. Oh that song that's popular now because of Stranger Things Oh with uh, let me think What's her name? Kate Bush. Yeah, great job. Yeah, and I was like, I don't remember that song I don't remember it at all I don't remember hearing it on the radio I was like unless it came out in like 86 that was a busy year for me Everybody anybody got one year Pivotal year, right? It was a pivotal year. Yeah, it's like we're at base I kind of base everything on like that year. You got a couple of those years in your life Or you're like, did it happen before or after this year right here? You moved here or changed jobs or whatever Yeah Just a lot of stuff happened in 86 including the Mets winning the world series. Like Oh, yeah, that was one of your things Yeah, big year Was it before I moved here or after I moved there more about where I lived at the time? What house I lived in?  It doesn't get all watery and runny Yeah, someone asked how long in a I think in the chemigaret make it group today How long it takes to does the glue take to dry and somebody was responded almost immediately And I was like, well you got like 15 20 seconds, but that's about it I need some scissors now. I've got to cut my cow This is where we get quiet the glue time. Yeah, this is glue time stop glue time Now you're going to think hammer time But it's not it's glue time I'm glad to see him come out in those three M commercials That was good that made me happy Oh these pieces are floating Who is interested in some football designs? Oh, yeah, we were at the farmers market on saturday And um, we had a couple of people More than one for sure ask about football signs Uh, so we made six of them. Yep, and then does that count the hokey's one? No, and then somebody asked us about we need tech hokey's So we did that one too And I'll make that a little less team specific So we can use it for all kinds of things That is a good design Kara got quiet there because Like the whole roof started to shake. Yeah, it got real windy outside all of a sudden Looking a little scary out there I was just Hoping I didn't get picked up in a tornado and dropped off in the land of Oz Or was I hoping that I would already yelled add pink I did court. I just maybe didn't add enough to see it. It was a lot of pink that color is sw garrant Oh That's sure when Liam's sw garrant Yeah That's that's probably closer to antique white Jerry says The first version is similar to a well known artist from here by the name of Byron Birdsall So they really worked for me Well, Jerry If that's the one you want and that is very similar to their style, we're happy to keep it You tell me Something wicked this way comes. Yeah, it's it sounded scary out there Are we supposed to have any storms? Yes But he said only like a Severity level one or something. So I don't think it's gonna work too crazy Well, how high do they go if it goes to two we better hold on to our hats But if it goes to 10, I think we're okay Well, kanda said she was I told you it was headed this way And when we first got on here, there was no sign of a storm I thought somebody was coming in. Uh-huh. Yeah, Gandalf was just walked in Candice dropped the leak Dallas Cowboys Renee You have to watch our video this week I think you're gonna like it. We're doing a full football front porch makeover Well, I don't know design theme theme A door around a leaner And a doormat We're doing all of it. I want I want to try doing a doormat kim has not bought in on the doormat Yeah, he this is his thing. He really wants to do a doormat. We've done this week's video is Garrett's video They usually tank we'll see how they go Oh, this this truck doesn't have uh, I think I need the piece that goes inside there It's right there No, that goes down here Goes inside where? Oh right here. Mm-hmm So that I can Like paint it gray Yeah, it might still be on the table Yeah, I see it. Thanks Helen That's exactly what we were trying to do Helen says when I watch the Friday video with a leaner, I just wanted to say I really appreciated how thorough Kim's directions were for someone who may have been new Been a new video watcher. Oh, yeah, you found it. Yes.  I think they were good shots. I mean when I watched the video myself I was like great job with the Shots I could get kind of see every time we said something He had it zoomed in and we could see exactly what I was saying or what he was saying We could see exactly what we were doing And we everything wasn't shot from like the one main camera So thanks. I appreciate that. Yes. I appreciate that Trying a new technique Yeah, I don't know if you guys noticed but the last Three or four of our videos have been filmed that way We've done the project and then did a little voiceover kind of with the project So that we could have those different camera angles And I like to forget something to say something or describe something while we're doing the project That's usually what we do Little little better instruction that way. All right now need your opinion. Should I leave this light gray like this? Or dark gray? I go dark gray So they don't think it's one of his taillights I take for granted everything I've learned over the years. Yeah, so do we see And then people ask us questions and you know, I'm sure you've seen it in the facebook group And then you're like, oh, yeah, I guess You can't tell what's going on there. You can't tell what we did there how quickly we did something Yeah, we're just talking about that with illustrator today How you were like, oh was it Tanner? Tanner's like, I was trying to see what you did, but you used nothing but shortcut keys Yeah, when you do your little class are you gonna show the court, you're probably gonna have to I'm not even sure you Yeah, well, I was gonna start with uh Just explaining the whole layout and then how I set up my workspace and then how Yeah, that's different and then how uh, I use all my shortcut keys But I'm gonna keep it to crafting stuff But I probably only use like eight main shortcut keys All right, can you guys see my truck coming together? Look how cute this thing is already Did you just clap for yourself?  Oh That's because you're supposed to put that grass down first If you lined it up right you could get it on Yeah, yeah, I think it'll go on. Yeah, I think you're good Bottom up Kim bottom up, although I Right how many times have I said bottom up? somebody who's just getting yelled at the other day because uh They glued all of the uh The acorns with the the leaf acorn thing. Whoop whoop. Look at that. Yeah, we got down there So jonathan glued them all from the top down and then Didn't leave room to put the uh the leaf in acorn here You're yelling Bottom up. Oh, yeah.  Oh, it was a mess. I didn't want to waste those signs You know, it's a little bit of wood there. I did not want to waste. What was it like four signs? He had done that way and then couldn't get the leaves. This is that fall leaves in acorn set And couldn't he put the fall words on before he put the leaves on And then he couldn't get the leaves down up underneath the fall word He fixed them all though. I cut the uh I cut the leaves up so we could slide each piece in You just couldn't slide the one piece in together I am so glad I am not a fly Because I already have problems problems with tape So I would definitely stick the flypaper It's an interesting perspective What's happening over here? What's happened with the hangers? What's happened with the hangers? Helen, what's happening with the hangers? One of these files is going to be on patreon. I sent him in your shop. I meant to put him up today. Yeah, I meant to do it a minute ago Good call Bonnie Keep me honest Let's see what else Jason says he's anxiously waiting for the ai tutorials He asked me he had few people ask him for a couple different door hangers That are sports related but I'm lost when it comes to putting them together in Illustrator Well, I think he's very anxious to work on it too. I think his plan is to do some this weekend Maybe some of the first filming and um It works. I mean like we said before Jonathan has been working with us And he's made some of his own signs and Garrett's been able to just give him a few pointers here and there and Uh, he's able to do a lot. So I know yeah, he's making sales. Yeah doing sports signs He had another order he came back this weekend with another lover. He said oh, did he? Oh, look what I just did. Oh, and he just did a hello kitty one, too Made it ladies and stuff. What's pretty cute. Oh, what do you do it? Oh his back window is cracked What's happening over there? A mess of this one Why is it back window cracked? Is that because the gnomes cracked the window when they were trying to escape? Well, partly because this roller is old or the bag. He's got a lot of dry paint in it You guys can see hopefully I can show you Can you see how much? Chunky paint look at that thing. It's a mess So I don't know how I'm gonna get you can see in that off when it dries Well, maybe it'll look like You just got a dirty window He's just did a lot of fast driving in in the dirt. So my noom is right over top of it Wait, what did you just blow? Did you just dry the paint off? I was drying the paint. Yep. Just a couple more of those Ellen said Don't get me wrong. I love the eye rolls from kim the most It's my drinking game I'm so glad that you appreciate that. Yeah, good thing. Good thing we don't have a film or following us around all day Who has the drinking game? Helen.  Am I missing shoes? No, the shoes are the background Uh-oh Because Their beards would sit over top of their shoes. Oh, okay Sounds good Like a bunny rabbit. There you go. Somebody asked how long you have How long was it? That was probably 10 seconds or so So much time, but I was able to get it back off. Yeah So paint the shoes on this backer first. Yeah, sorry Paint the shoes on the backer I just thought that would be the easiest way to keep them all together with very little pieces. I thought I was doing the No, so I think I was trying to make it as easy as possible Oh, one of the things we're going to start doing is, you know, we've wanted to do instructions for a long time But they're very time consuming and we're always putting out new designs So we were trying to figure out the best way to do that and we've decided we're going to do a video for each one So every time we have a new kit I'll do a little quick video and show you how I'm painting it And how to put it together give a link to each of those cablet boots were Chicky like those cablet boots Like that's one of the ones that I made but never put together This tape I feel like I'm not a fly but I still might get caught in this tape. Hey, if I don't make it home tonight Check the trash for me It might be in there somebody check the trash This while the tape you're using isn't like the normal blue painters tape. That is this is almost like Some sort of industrial blue right this tape That and then I got to try to like spell And struggle with the tape All right, I think that's all my pieces I don't think I've got my feet painted So I don't know if you guys could see that but See the little base of the gnome. I already have the glue on there I had to paint his little feet and now I'm going to pile everything On top Pile it on the gnome Bring them to life I don't mind the mist a little right there Fix that I feel like I'm going heavy with the blue today My glue hand is strong today Mr. Miyagi would be proud Oh, hey, when does that start? Anybody watch uh Cobra Kai I think next next Friday night At this Friday next Friday My tv time is my My design time Yeah, he's you know, it's great about I'm impressed that Garrett can Design and watch tv like when I'm watching tv. I'm watching tv. I cannot design at the same time I can't focus on both But he can yeah saturday we watched like Three episodes of a show and I did five designs It's like that's It's like my design time right there Although what show was it? Oh stranger things I could not design and watch stranger things. There's so many little things Kim's like, did you see that? Yeah Did you see that you're missing it you're missing it Someone said I got you boo Unfortunately, no the door hanger Kim did last week's test cut Tuesday Well, that's because we were going to redesign it and then it morphed into this one But we can still post the same one we did last week that old little rinky dinky guy With those cute little gnomes all by themselves. I mean, here's the thing about this one I mean, maybe somebody doesn't like the whole truck thing. That's what I said. So I say we can kind of keep both. Yeah We'll have him post that so what do you have to do you have to post these and last week's then Last week I post last I I thought we were gonna update that gnome Just give him something to sit on so I was waiting to post that But I did post sweater weather Look you guys everybody email Kim And tell her to finalize the designs I made What 20 designs this weekend? 20 2 0 The Kim has to okay all my fonts Look, I know you guys think that That's excessive but sometimes Garrett Garrett designs with his masculine eye So I know that's why I can't wait to halloween. That's why I'm just powering through fall trying to get the halloween I got a whole bunch of good designs. Oh, I got a good one from last night I turned that uh, I made a different I took a different take on the whole uh hocus pocus witches And a door leaner or a porch leaner I took it in a different direction Yeah, that's gonna be exciting video to follow. Yeah, it'll be a good one It's big. That's big it goes on pickets. It's got a cauldron So debbie wants to know if we can send a copy of each product the color So that you can see the combination I'm not sure I am clear on that like Oh, I think I'm on the right. How long does it take to cut one project? It depends Yeah, that depends on how complicated how detailed the project is I try to keep it down so Oh, and what you're using for the glow forge I'd say typically Oh, I don't know. I don't want to most of my things that I do on the glow forger test cuts But I think this one took 30 minutes on a hundred watt laser I think that one did too. Most of the stuff takes like 30 minutes Bad news Whoa, look at that. You can see all the dimension.  I'm so close. You just got to put the lights in and the fence. Oh and all the little hands Yep Right now Tim wants me to What did you want me to add the cut marks? In the hats I mean, you guys can tell me she doesn't do stripes. She won't paint stripes or polka dots When she held the sign up she goes I don't paint polka dots I was like, do you want me to cut them out? Because in the file I have little polka dots on their hats It's hard. Well, I can't paint polka dots on these lives. I mean, I guess I could if I have the right tools But you just put a little bit of paint on your pinky and poke them in the hat in a couple of random places Yeah, I mean, that's what I'm thinking if I have little Where does he ends go? It looks so good Yeah, look at all that. Yeah, turn it sideways. Show the dimension on that. I wasn't spinning it Yeah, go back to over here. The pumpkin looks like it's really in the back of the truck Auto focus Wait nine you Kim Wait nine you Almost there, Garrett. Almost there I have 20. Whoo. Oh, that was pretty quick I think it's because uh I was there and then I wanted somebody asked how How long our workshop steak takes about as long as our lives take Yeah, I think about an hour and a half to two hours depends on how much chit chat and it's going on How much partying is happening? Not our partying the customer partying Much Garrett is distracting them I try not to distract them too much. Sometimes I stay out I go away Oh my goodness. Look at that. That is so cool. Yeah, look at that guy I was like it's like you're trying to move away from it Yeah, I like the fence that you can peek behind the fence. Yeah, so maybe you can see a little better now I want to go over here Let's see. How can I show? It's so hard to show Right. It's a lot harder than it looks. Yeah Anyway, you can kind of see back there. It's up off It's got a lot more dimension to it. I like the dimension I like giving things dimension For dimensional beings What happens? I'm team co-porki. That's what hella said I'm team eagle fang Aw, thanks. Candice said Garrett's awesome and Kim you're amazing. We're all thankful for you guys Thanks, Candice. You're pretty great, too. And then yes, this is so dang adorable. I'm in love Not bad. Your designs are cute Sandra says ha ha Garrett watching himself spinning around on the video He's like a little kid. Sandra, I'm telling you I don't know how I should take that Kara says oh my word. I love them both. I can't wait for the files. Let's turn it right I like free spirited. What do you think of that font? Should it be bigger? Give me some feedback What on a home suite? No. Yeah, is that too small? Does it still need to be even bigger? No I think it looks great. I don't know. It's pretty big. I think it works The font on the gnomes makes it really pop. Good job. Okay, so there you go That was Kim. Kim's font. She's the font lady. Thank you Finalize them Kim. I am Jason. I am I am Like I got a little Facebook group. Yeah, I got a little standing spooky town Yeah, that was waiting for that one waiting for her approval.  They're gonna be more like I made them I made them two levels two layer. Yeah, so there's a front and yeah front and back and they're staggered Yeah, and then I got a bunch of pieces that you can paint put on them Yeah, that's what I've been that's what I've been asking for for a while. I'm really one of those for Uh For the for halloween and the fall. So I'm really excited about those. Maybe we'll do those next Tuesday What the standards? Oh, yeah, if you approve them, I'll make them a cup file. Yeah, so maybe you guys can look forward to that because I'm excited about that one Boat Kim Wait next time live do the standards. Yeah, Tuesday. I got like five houses on there Oh, you think it's too big we do it together. Yeah, if we do it together, I think we can tackle it in 90 minutes Oh, well now that I say that it might get pared down.  Thank you guys. Thanks for the comments. I really like appreciate your feedback Yeah, do you like my two-tone pumpkin Do you think the hats need more see they're supposed to have stripes and polka dots? I guess I could throw some polka dots on there easily That's what you get a little creative. It's really good to get artsy. Here's what the design looks like I didn't know we're standing I'll stand to you. Oh, I can't really show you Why can I get that? Oh, I could put the overhead. Oh, because I'm not even on that camera. No Don't wonder I get where you gotta see this see the stripes and the polka dots Well, you see how I had them as cutouts Well, I took all the cutouts because I was gonna make them solid but I So that's why they're all missing because I took those out Anyway, so I just did them solid, but I think we can add a little little dimension to them and make them even cuter Oh, somebody said they're perfect. Candice says later later Candice Bye everybody We are about out of time we use MDF and we use exterior house paint.
