Man, I hope he's OK... I have no experience doing anything like the stuff he does to die-cast cars (I used to be more into custom LEGO building and modding old Gameboy consoles), I just stumbled across the channel since my dad has always liked collecting small die-casts for him and I (maybe it's our collective nostalgia fueling it?)... For context, my dad also likes building scale tanks, military trucks and airplanes, so I suppose this isn't too far off as a hobby. I don't know many channels focusing on die-cast cars/trucks, but from the ones I know this has to be the best one... I hope he's alright... Hope you're also OK, Joseph (don't know you, but nice to meet you). Do you also do this as a hobby, or are you just enjoying watching this, like I am?

Covid had an impact as to why his channel skyrocketed in views between 2020-2021, so considering that it’s not so much of a threat as it once was, he’s not getting the same kind of numbers, and that sometimes can have people leave the platform and never look back

All that, plus the demands of most likely a day job, would for sure take the joy out of it. I may be completely off base, but will always check back for maybe something new. If not, that’s ok too.

Hey man, I started watching your videos when you first got shared on Reddit and blew up a little bit. Always have loved them. Fast forward like 6 years, today my daughter and I assembled a Hot wheel track for The first time. Like we put together a proper one with the powered launcher and stuff. She just turned two and she absolutely loved it. Now and ask me to open the cars and I have to try to get her to understand that Hot Wheels usually don't open. Anyway, when we were playing with Hot Wheels I figured I'd put your video on and she really enjoyed watching you fix up this Tesla. She has an almost identical remote control, Hot Wheels brand actual Hot Wheels scale car of that Tesla in red that she likes to play with, so she started saying red car paint, red car paint, black car and things like that, she really enjoyed it. Anyway, I know the life of a content creator is often a lot more stress and nerves than it needs to be and I thought a nice little anecdote might be nice.

I got the opportunity to meet baremetalhw (won't say his name) at a toy show many years ago when I was maybe 12 or 13 (I'm 19 now). I was into customs and had watched EVERY one of his KZitem videos, when he'd mentioned he'd purchased a redline from a local toy show, I went out on a limb and dm'ed him to see what show. Just so happened to be the one in my town and turned out he was local. Seemed like a dream, we ended up meeting together at the next show and hung out all day. He brought a box full of cars that were featured on his channel, at that age it felt like a dream! At the end of the show he gifted me a mad max build that he'd done in one of his videos, absolutely made my day and I still have the car to this day in a box somewhere. Not sure if you'll see this but sir you truly were an inspiration to me, I hope all is well. 🤘🏻
