The future of my lift filming career

For now, I am temporarily putting my career of lift filming on hold, after the fiasco that happened during this past Atlantic City trip, and a few other major trips to Fort Lauderdale, Atlantic City, and “Hartford” in the past. This past trip to Atlantic City determined the fate of my lift filming career for now. While I am very happy with the footage I got in Atlantic City (I was only expecting to get one film of ONE OF THE HIGH RISE SETS OF LIFTS ANYWAY), there were other aspects I would prefer not to talk about (as such happened in the February 2017 Fort Lauderdale/Miami trip which almost made the 6 story Dover HIGHdraulic lifts a part of my history), which is making me want to STOP filming lifts for now.

When will I start filming lifts outside of Clinton/Lebanon Township again?

As of right now, I have canceled MOST future plans to film lifts ANYWHERE out of Clinton, Lebanon & MAYBE Bridgewater Township, from now until I can either start driving or until 2.15.2020. So far, here are some of the big future trips for filming lifts that I have CANCELED because of THIS VERY PAST ATLANTIC CITY TRIP:

  • Elizabeth *3, Autumn 2018
  • Secaucus *2, Autumn 2018
  • 9.15.2018 trip to Elizabeth
  • ALL self-planned Scranton trips between now & 4.14.2019
  • Pittsburgh, December 2018
  • Hartford, December 2018, unless the planning is not my business to do
  • 1.19.2019 trip to Secaucus
  • 2.8-10.2019 trip to Atlantic City, Hartford, OR Pittsburgh
  • 4.20 & 27.2019 trips to Elizabeth
  • 5.25.2019 trip to Freehold Township
  • STILL NOT CANCELED: 6.13/14.2019 Pre-Graduation trip to Freehold Township
  • 7.10-14.2019 Graduation trip to Charlotte OR Atlantic City
  • 12.21-23.2019 Six-month post-graduation trip to Hartford

Furthermore, if I get my driver’s license at anytime before 2.15.2020, or I can legally and physically drive ON MY OWN, OUT-OF-STATE, before 2.15.2020, I will uphold all future cancellations for lift filming from that day forward, for trips I am capable of making on my own. I have postponed my high school graduation trip to my Computer Science Bachelor’s Degree / College graduation celebration trip, and the desired city will STILL BE CHARLOTTE OR ATLANTIC CITY. Unless the planning is not a result of my own desire to go to a CCRS-ranking city, town, township, county, region, or area, I will not voluntarily make plans to go there unless I can physically drive there on my own. Additionally, if there are plans (not my own wish) to go to those CCRS-ranking places, I will only film the lifts in the hotel, apartment building, condo, or rental house that I am PHYSICALLY sleeping in, for I may have no other interest in going to any other building to film the lifts, unless I can get to another building, PHYSICALLY, on my own!

Future plans to film lifts for now are solely in Clinton & POSSIBLY Bridgewater Townships.

Found the source of the problems with my PC

I am proud to finally tell y’all that I believe I have found a definite source of the problems I have been experiencing with my Windows PC over the past few days. It was because of a faulty Windows 10 preview update which was affecting the Windows 10 Recovery Environment. Luckily, I have found a trustworthy program (free of malware) which I could use to debug errors in my PC at any time, minor or major. Luckily,  none of the problems I am experiencing with my PC right now are  anywhere close to what’s happened when I tried to fix windows PC’s in the past. I am still taking  every precaution possible to further decrease the chance of my Windows PC breaking down or crashing. As a matter of fact, my PC almost crashed  this morning , but luckily, I was able to hard-restart the PC to get it working again by holding the power button down for 15-20 seconds. Luckily,  none of the problems I am experiencing with my PC right now are  anywhere close to what’s h...

LIFT FILMING AGENDA UPDATE 1.25.2019 & WILL CHICAGO BE CROWNED THE NEW KING?

Chicago holds a high possibility of being crowned first place . What if I told you that Chicago has some rare and exotic lifts that you probably won’t find in many other places in the U.S.? That is an existence a lift filmer will be delighted with when they go to the city of Chicago. My four figures of reference were: WI Sirens and Elevators Elevators of Lake County CHI Elevators Windy City Elevators Because I have found so many outstanding Montgomery, Dover, SchindlerHaughton, Westinghouse and KONE lifts throughout the city of Chicago, it wouldn’t be sensible for me to write it all under one big blog post, because it would be a big waste of time for me to go into big, elaborate detail on what made each lift stand out. What I found on YouTube in terms of Chicago lifts Mitsubishi and Fujitec These lift filmers have walked around the city of Chicago filming some super nice lifts, and in the process of watching YouTube videos over the past few months, I have found that Ch...

QUICK RUNDOWN OF THE NORMAL BEHAVIOR OF A 700A

Tallest 700A’s I have been on Arguably, at 20 stories, these have been the tallest Schindler 700A’s I have EVER been on, and the first I’ve been on in a hotel. However, I have noticed some interesting characteristics of the Schindler 700A in mid to high rise applications. Epic lifts indeed To start off, these lifts had absolutely incredible acceleration, deceleration and leveling. They take off like rockets and travel at a mindblowing speed of 120 meters per minute, despite serving a travel distance of 55-60 meters. The deceleration is similar to the Schindler 700A’s at the Nordstrom store at the Mall at Short Hills, as it smoothly phases into its full deceleration mode. In terms of character, these lifts do tend to make a little bit of noise and shake on the way up and down the tower. Car 3 makes a very loud screeching noise as it accelerates towards level 17 going down, which I find to make the ride even more fun. These lifts were installed in 1993, which gives them even more 199...
