Year 6 Plans

Good morning, my good frirnds. It has certainly been a truly wonderful 5-year journey with you all. 2020 TRIED to ruin my fifth anniversary, but I showed it who's boss by going to Short Hills DURING THE PANDEMIC & filming lifts despite limited social distancing throughout the shopping center. 2020 TRIED  to ruin the year but I showed it who's boss by continuing to do the work on my channel operations behind the scenes to make channel work as efficient as possible & already I'm seeing early signs of what could be forecasted massive success  for my channel once the coronavirus pandemic dies down to a point where I could safely travel from state-to-state for overnight lift filming trips.

Clinton Township Times: Week of 12/20/2020

  Top 3 Best Lifts of the Week Best lift of the week The best lift of the week takes the cake at the #1 spot as a 1995 Montgomery Twinkie-M hydraulic lift which received a slap-on modernisation by EXCEL Elevator Corporation in 2018. The motor and logic are still completely original from when this thing was installed in 1995. It is very fast for the 3-floor distance it travels & also being a hydraulic. It takes forever to level but it is still very epic since it drops like a stone when going down and jolts violently going upward. The fixtures add a soothing touch to the lift & the dim crown lighting design gives it a relaxing vibe. This lift not only has character & class but it has style as the modernisation was done in such a way that the original character has not been compromised in any way while making the lift even more beautiful. General Chicago Lift Character Report Rating 4.3 / 5 stars - Great #2 Spot The second best lift takes the #2 spot as a former very old 1...

5 Year Tribute & Going Into Y6

Before I delve any further, I would like to say that it has been a WONDERFUL first 5 years as a Tier I (First Year) & Tier II (Dedicated) lift filmer! I have definitely experienced my ups & downs as a lift filmer, but let’s recap with the 3 best experiences I’ve had as a lift filmer which have contributed greatly to my YouTube Channel: 3 | Hartford & New Haven (December 2017) We went to Hartford & Cromwell in October 2017 & again in December 2017 for the 2017 close-out family trip in preparation for the 2018 trip to Atlantic City. Possibly, my favorite highlights of the trip were the two Otis lifts at my hotel (one I got stuck in for 3 minutes). The other Otis lift I didn’t get stuck in received a fresh modernisation by Otis from Series 1 to Series 2 by the second visit two months later. Both lifts scored a 4 / 5 rating on the General Chicago’s Lift Character Report, signifying that they were great lifts . Everything from the green-style buttons to the arrow-style i...
