Episode Date: April 28, 2025

I did a Bonkers Barbie Stop Motion Yesterday.

Good morning, everyone. It is now 557 it's April the 28th today's Monday new work week for everyone And it's 2025 of course for me to work week is every day yesterday was a very busy Sunday for orders I've been running some specials promoting a little bit through eBay, but they had actually had a credit that you could use significantly has helped me out a little bit. I pay the end of the month bills and then we go right into the beginning of the month

bills. So there's always, I basically just live to pay bills at this point, but we seem to be able to keep pace which is great there's never any sort of a balance in my account and checking account was just enough to for the next bill to come out so yeah so the workweek for me is every day I work every single day orders are constant so some days more than others but over the weekend I had a very consistent or amount of orders so I a lot of times I've been leaving the

orders until Monday morning which is now but I was like no I'm not gonna do that so I spent the rest of the night just finishing orders and I still have a couple more to do and or it would also be any orders that happened overnight so and then I spent another couple hours out in a space that I'm working on I'm not going to show you the space yet because it's still a real mess it's just a giant pile now I had all kinds of racks and stuff I had to take out and some other flooring and all kinds of stuff so I worked on that for a couple hours so now I'm just down to one big pile of recyclable a lot of it is old electronics old when I used to be in the liquidation business for a little

while buying parts stuff from liquidation.com and I found a local supplier buying all kinds of Security anything that didn't work. I got I would pick it up in truckloads And try to resell it as best broken, but I got a lot of that stuff left sometimes somewhat I tried to fix old radios and Even newest new radio stuff So we're gonna now I need to separate that giant pile. Just concentrating on that. It's the middle room down on the back end of my house

that we're gonna use. I'm gonna put the freezers and everything. And my mother, she's getting older here. It's not accessible for her to get to. So we're gonna make that one nice room for her. I'm working on it, but it's gonna, for our first I gotta get the big giant pile out of there. Alright, let's see what's going on for this morning.

Another good successful overnight nightly project journeyman. I changed up my mood now where it does multiple colors. It has little patterns. So we do it that way now my fat my mask last night was uh Hello kitty, I'm still I ordered on April 11th waiting for my my Mickey Mouse It may be able to come in today And of course like I said I sent the seller a direct message saying hey, thanks a lot For shipping that right out for me.

And that was being very sarcastic. But I will of course leave a five full star feedback, say fast and as described, and never bring it into the feedback because I would never want that from me. However, I may because it was such a long wait between what I think I have an Etsy order as it is a shocker man anything oh it's the orders yeah I would never bring into the feedback I only want my my name being shown as positive feedback also I would never want to my thing showing anything different. So we have one order. They changed up Etsy a little bit.

It's a little more confusing than it used to be. My order, just trying to get to my order here. Oh yeah, I have lots of those. I can renew those. So this is just a empty silver top cover. Okay, so we can do that. We have lots of those. I can renew those. So this is just a empty silver top cover Okay, so we do that we have plenty of those Got lots of top covers for the Nintendo GameCube tons of them leftover top and of course the bottom cases and most of them I sold lots of them But a lot of them have like one little chip or a little teeny ding so therefore I can't really sell it

But I was cutting out the AT sticker in the front I Was cutting it out. I still sell those once in a while It's cuz some people want to put it back on in there named GameCubes. I couldn't pull them off cuz they're paper I don't know how people get them off, but I was cut, I cut them out. I've actually have videos of me cutting them out with a Dremel-ish kind of thing. All right, so let's go to, let's check the news. Bridgette signed a quarterback. Oh, they got rid of Joe Milton. I think I read Joe Milton I think Joe Milton is gonna be phenomenal in Dallas I was a big fan of Joe Milton at the end there the Patriots quarterback

they had Joe Milton the second I think his name is Minecraft another level 817 million dollars pretty wild so the drafts over I don't know really what we it was really paying attention other than I know our first pick was a tackle after that who knows what we get what we get so let's see a lot of players didn't get picked big names do or got picked late that's interesting but doesn't really matter it's all about getting onto a team and then doing whatever you you do good sales of press those 33 expedition 33 sells Sales surpassed 1 million copies in 72 hours. Well, it's pretty cool. So that's that new game 33. I Can't afford to buy any more games right now

But now it was on my list of things and I've got like 10 other games in line I haven't really played either I don't want to get anymore but they'll always be there so everyone has a rush to get the game when it first comes out but of course Death Stranding 2 coming soon I'm getting real excited I don't see anything about any sort of a Death Stranding 2 console and I'm don't I can't remember seeing Maybe I wasn't paying attention, but any PS 5

Dedicated console Meaning like a certain game made for it. I don't recall when you Please I haven't seen any This would be the one to do it because of ps4 had the pro Destroying to death stranding with the cool control The yellow control with the kids inside and all that good stuff But I don't know I don't know I have to ask that question. Has it been a PS 5 everybody anybody knows a PS 5

Dedicated system like a custom-made system. I Don't think so. I mean I could be wrong. I Will check in on my RSS feed last night and one download Alright, so when I get one download, I think I get multiple downloads from different people for that one download Portland Gainesville in Germany pretty awesome Frankfurt

Manila in the United States. I'm gonna get a lot of Manolas Okla okla is another one. I always appreciate it. So it's fun. I get some in the United States and some across the world pretty cool So let's go on to YouTube Oh, I did know I did yesterday took me a good two hours two and a half hour No, not at all. I don't know maybe now an hour and a half about an hour and a half I did a I had all the Barbie stuff while I'm cleaning up my area in the back. I found all my boxes of Barbies that we'd found somewhere.

So yesterday I just stopped motion. Bonkers Barbie, I called it. Try to make it silly as possible. And we had, I started out with all like smaller younger Barbies for a little bit and then I was trying to learn how to make a wave with their hands and they're moving their heads back and forth. And then I then I brought in all the older Barbies and then we did the same thing again. Almost had 200 frames I think I had no 300 I was trying to get to 300 frames

My back got sore because you got to try to keep them in position So I got a few Bunker Barbies had 402 views of that pretty cool Project Journeyman overnight with three 186 so it was a smaller view last night Through I'm at thirty or thirty four thousand 131 subscribers, so we went up a little bit. I did promote my bonkers Barbie just because it was pretty cool It came up pretty fun. There is something really special, but it takes a lot of time to do that for anything came out I did it for

Came out one minute and 36 seconds. And I got him to do a wave a couple times. I was gonna keep doing the wave, but then I ran out of time. So, let's see. Yeah, so my bonkers barbie, pretty cool. So today we will do some other stuff. I was telling him to check my orders in a minute

I've got game. I need to do finish to we I Pulled one we motherboard another one is a Japan we motherboard so I could find that it's only I didn't finish yesterday But I'm so glad I'm Caught up. I would be really bumming this one because it took me a good two hours to get all my orders done just for over the weekend. So I don't see any comments. I don't see. We had some views, pretty much.

I had a low end for my nightly project journey, man, but I've got some other ideas coming. I'll do it every for my nightly project Journeyman but I've got some other ideas coming. I'll do it every night now because it's a routine just like this, just like my Groundhog Day here, podcasts in the morning. So I keep my routines. I'm a big routine guy, it really helps. Especially if you've been clean and sober for as long as I have, 2011. Routines are healthy routines though, they gotta be healthy routines. So I like to have my day doing, as long as I'm always doing stuff I'm good.

Not that I really don't have any desire to drink or anything like that anymore, but just nice to always have something to do All this it correlates with that in the end of the day Everything everything I do is about Just getting your day going through your day and then join it best you can Doing the fun stuff Doing the projects that you like to do So let's look at eBay It's been we've been plugging away here. She's been great because I was this is a really tough month

I'm sure everyone knows how these bills are just And I'm at the bare minimum. I'm hardly even doing we got four more orders That's really gonna help me out. Oh when I sold my other my second Atari 400 I really gonna help me out. Oh and I sold my other my second Atari 400. I packed that up yesterday. Got a couple messages and offer and we had one feedback. Let's check out the feedback. Let's see what's going on. Oh I did my taxes too this month so that that was another you know a few hundred dollars to do because it cost money to do that because I have to do like a business kind of thingy

uh perfect five uh short pin seven long pin power supply uh the but the the cables themselves somebody ordered a couple I had a hard time finding the 7 pin luckily I found one Sega Genesis slots. Thank you fast and Quality product a plus I like it pluses. So let's see what my I'm still waiting on my Mickey Mouse Again, I ordered an August 11th. It is now August 28th. I still haven't got August 28th it's not often that things I don't get things that that late and like I said any other normal person

would have probably slammed this person's feedback still it's still in I was in Providence finally now it didn't get actually shipped out again I ordered the 11th or April 11th they didn't print the label out to April 17th and then the postal service didn't actually get the box package until April 24th so that's why I normally wouldn't do anything but I as soon as I saw it finally get shipped, I sent them a direct personal email saying, hey, I just want to personally thank you for getting my item shipped out as quickly as possible.

We need more sellers like you on eBay. And of course, that was some serious sarcasm. But I think that at least they know. But again, it won't be brought anywhere in here into the Feedback just fast as I subscribed Okay, so let's look at we have two shades of black. I had somebody ordered to Xbox 360 This is the fat Top grill and bottom grill the black there's two different shades

It's a whole bet. That was a whole other issue at one time There's actually a video if you if you look at it, but this guy actually wanted there's a glossy Black that came out after 2009 and then there's the flatter grayish black that came out before 2009 So this guy wanted the bottom flat black and the top glossy. So of course I had to go around and try to find it. And I did. But unfortunately a couple of clips were broken but I let him know. I said I'm shipping them the way you want but I one of the two of the acrylic clips broke because they're hard to get them off. The top is the one that's the one that's the hardest to get off So I'll let him know he says sounds good. So now I got somebody asking

Sega when I'm wearing Sega Saturn see how quickly I could just jump from Xbox 360 Sega said I'm really good like that. Will this work with the model? Mine is missing. The cartridge lid. I don't know. Yeah, so you have the black cover. But I think inside, But I think inside these are the same but we're gonna put not not certain show me show me show show me the inside of your top cover zoomed out so i can see the whole thing I can see the whole thing.

Show me the top, the inside of the top. Top, top top top top cover. Inside top comes zoomed out so I can see the whole thing. So pictures will help me out to figure out what's going on. Alright, now we're going on to, I have a, I've got three 3D printers and I've never 3D printed anything. One was a real expensive one at the time. And then I had the second one which is a bowl of Vo X e lab

It's a resin 3d printer. I wanted to learn about how to use it. I've got it every day So I've been trying to sell I like now the measurements in inches For the printing plate of the printer, okay Okay, I can do that. Okay. I will get that for you. So I have it, not only do I have the printer, I also have all the, I bought the resin which is what was even more expensive and I think it's just three bottles of resin And I Had listed I bought it and never sold it never never used it I was I was really gonna get to do some three printing ideas. I had lots of three print three 3d printing ideas However, I never I

Never run However, I never... I never... It just never happened. I have that one. Then I have this really cool Polaroid one. It's a smaller one. It's a little little guy. And I also have... Oh, I have another one. But it's a really big one. I've got lots of videos me setting them up I still haven't been setting it up. It's terrible But it's just things and I've been there too big to sell to resell. So it's just kind of collecting dust Normally don't do that. Normally I will get this stuff. I really a lot of things I wanted to

Ideas, but then I'll I also had a 3d scanner I have one rev point but it's so hard to get it to do anything that I don't really use that one either. So, 3D printing all that. Oh, and then at the same time I also got a two different vacuum forms. Well now what is a vacuum for? You runs runs hot and you put plastic and it molds it over something and then you pull it down and the vacuum sucks out.

It makes the plastic melt around it. It's a weird kind of school. One's called a vacuum former and I spent a lot of money on it and I've never used it. Does it say available funds? Trying to get to something here. It's not letting me do it. So yeah, so that's all those things I got that I was gonna make molds and models and do all kinds of things but it just never happened.

But it doesn't mean it won't happen, but I have all the stuff. Although my 3D print is really probably outdated now. So the orders I have for this morning are another power supply for the PS3. This is the original model the A, B or E. It's the APS-226 power supply. Things get so hot. Everything inside. Oh and then the guy who had offered me less amount for defective donor DS lights. I declined it and he just purchased it at the price that it was listed at, which was already a discount. I have a GameCube

DOL-001 power board in the bottom. They have their own power boards. And then the other ones the one oh one Doesn't has a power board built into it So then right so it's one of the versions of the power board so I saw one of those and Then we sold a top grill And so when I was a long time Xbox but the E, the last of the 360s.

1538, the top grill. I sold one of those. So again, variety, just everything all over the place here. From Sony to Nintendo to GameCube to Xbox 360. So those are the four things I sold I couldn't see it before So let's Get a couple doll I've sold lots of stuff but it takes two days to get it to actually clear.

So I really want to have a little shot of something this morning. So that's why I haven't been purchasing anything at all. This was a really hard month because the taxes cost me all that. Plus there was a water bill this month. There was all kinds of stuff going on. It was a crazy month. But I've been able to keep pace just barely. And of course, like I said, let's go back to my YouTube.

$26.73. And of course, like I said, let's go back to my YouTube. Twenty six dollars and seventy three cents. So I want to look at my revenue so far for the last two months. Again, it takes a hundred dollars in order for you to get paid. My life had a double shave my birthday with seven. I had seven thousand views on that. Pretty awesome. My YouTube creator channel wishlist was 3,000 way fast way before that so one the top one is 7,000 views the next one down is all the way down to 3,700 views. I had a project journeyman I one day I had 3,000

views on that was pretty awesome but I don't promote those because it's live stream. Although I promoted my Life in a Double Shape for my birthday, I put $57 on that. So I probably got a couple hundred dollars in promotions to pay this month. And then the next one, the YouTube Create a Wish List, I think I put 20 bucks. But for my Bunker is Barbie, I put $20 into it I've had 379 views for my podcast 4.7 hours

So like it's lots of stuff here. They're everywhere, but just new. Oh, I want to get revenue for a second Well, we'll go through we'll talk about that for a few minutes revenue now here on eBay. I mean on We'll go through we'll talk about that for a few minutes revenue now here on eBay. I mean on On YouTube so in March I had $34 and 91 cents April which is ongoing I have $25 and 65 cents, but it just keeps going down Life and double shave got me only dollars after seven thousand views one dollar and seventy five cents One dollar sixty six cents for all my furry friends dollar fourteen so my it's mostly in change from zero to a good dollar

As the average revenue Yeah, so December January ongoing so I think total since I started I was monetized in the Almost at the end of October. I haven't made $195 and I've promoted and I've done thousands of videos Tens of thousands of hours and now I'm at the point now. I started my project journey man as a Little bit of a spike just because I just can't make it make money So now I'm gonna I'm like well, I can't make money. I'm gonna put it on all the time

So it's another 12 hours now overnight that I'm on And I got some new ideas like say'd say, coming up for it. It's kind of fun. It's really trippy for me. Sleeping is basically like sleeping. I call it a sleeping art. I have sights and sounds. I changed the visual using Raspberry Pi.

Learned how to do that with my buddy Zippy. I do a new program each night And I get some new new ideas coming. I just can't afford to do it a second what that'll be coming And like I said, yeah, so I wanted to add it overnight at 12 hours. It's 12 hours. I wasn't using I think why not? We'll throw up that I came up a little little idea. It's pretty cool But it's really trippy for me, like it's like sleeping while you're being live streamed. Even though I sleep, I still know that I am being.

So I gotta make sure my blanket's on me and all that. Cause I don't, I sleep bare. So I'm always gonna be sure to always get my blanket. And I wear a mask, which I never wore before in my life. I used to just have my room really dark So now I got used to sleeping with a mask on so it's just really my dreams got really even weirder than they already were Because I just know that It's being live streamed so it's pretty then I go back and look at the next day check for anything

I'm looking for things that are supernatural. I haven't found anything yet. I move my hands around a lot. It's about it. So it's nothing really exciting. But I try to keep the mood and the visual different. So most people pop in for a couple seconds here and there. But just try to pull more audience in, just again, just to be more on YouTube than I already was

Just because I can't make any money at it. I'll just be everywhere All the time That's pretty funny. All right, so you guys have a good day Yeah, almost 27 minutes today great. All right, and I'll have some projects later I'm still working outside too. So only a few things. All right, I'll talk to you later. All right. Bye
