After YEARS of abuse, she needed an few upgrades.

A lot of people watch my build video's and other multi-
video projects but more often than not, they start somewhere
in the middle of the build and don't catch all the other
video's that lead up to where they started watching. This
causes people to ask me questions that were answered or
addressed in those previous videos.

I will be picking my FAVORITE builds of all time and
combining the entire series to make one giant video for
each one. This way you can watch it all or skip through
easily to parts you want to see. To everyone who has
watched all the video series i post, THANK YOU!

Last January while i was in Vegas for CES, someone knocked my beloved hoe off of her life support. Usually she is good for about 4-5 days tops when not hooked up to the wall. I have 11 year old batteries under the bottom...and they have for sure taken abuse but as long as they were on their intellicharger by the end of the evening they did fine. This time though, i came home to about 2 volts. She has been sitting ever since. The shop is a VERY busy place so it is easy to ignore it and let it collect dust. But i couldn't take it anymore! Join me on this journey to revive my Hoe! The ORIGINAL hoe! The hoe that made you want a hoe for yourself!
