This is pretty cool. Not what I expected from an auto detailing YouTube channel.

Pretty sweet!
Though I had to laugh a bit since I was reading the Harbor Freight thread with many folks bashing Harbor Freight stuff and the complete crap that they sell.
And here are these dudes building state of the art drone catching technology for the military and beyond and I saw a Chicago Electric multi tool, a badlands winch, and not 1 but 2 Pittsburg floor jacks!!!!
I saw 4 jack stands too that I bet are Pittsburg I just could not see any labels.

^^^ Not only that, they're doing it all in a used trailer. They're spending where they need to (innovation through r&d, 3d printing, etc.) but saving money on the ancillary items. I do that a lot.

Slightly off topic, but I met Larry with Ammo at a DetailFest in South Florida several years ago and he's a really cool guy. He's also an absolute encyclopedia of detailing knowledge. If you wonder how to attack something on your vehicle, check out his YouTube channel. I guarantee he'll have a video out there that can help you get the job done right. Fun fact, I got myself into a jam a couple years ago doing something I shouldn't have been doing to a vehicle, and emailed Larry for advise on how to fix my screw up. He actually emailed back and forth with me a couple times and saved my bacon. Smile

We do it off of moving yachts all of the time, but generally land or catch them (by hand) at 10 knots or less.
