On July 18, 2015 the 4th annual ETCG 'Meet Up' was held in Mason, OH. It was the biggest one to date. Attendance had doubled from the previous year. Honestly, I'm not sure what I'm going to do for next year if it continued to grow at this rate.
Despite the heat, and the shop being filled almost to capacity, everyone had a great time. We had some special guests this year:

My dad also brought with him a metal sign that my brother Mark had made for me. It's an awesome sign and Charles treated to liberate it from my shop. Glad he didn't follow through with that. I really like my new sign.
Let's not ignore the elephant, or in this case, the shop equipment in the room. Yes, in support of the Fixing it Forward project BendPak/Ranger has once again outfitted my shop with some of the latest equipment. My compressor is so new it doesn't even have a page on their website yet. Here's more info on those.

In fact, they even got to use it for the first time. Both Matt and Lee Ann helped break in the new tire equipment.
I'd like to thank each and every person that made the trip. I appreciate each and every one of you.

ETCG
About the Site 🌐
This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. 🎥
Origins of the Idea 🌱
The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. 🧠
Challenges Faced 🤔
Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.
Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. 🔍
Creating Truly Random Links 🛠️
The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
About YouTube 📺
YouTube, an American video-sharing website based in San Bruno, California, offers a diverse range of user-generated and corporate media content. 🌟
Content and Users 🎵
Users can upload, view, rate, share, and comment on videos, with content spanning video clips, music videos, live streams, and more.
While most content is uploaded by individuals, media corporations like CBS and the BBC also contribute. Unregistered users can watch videos, while registered users enjoy additional privileges such as uploading unlimited videos and adding comments.
Monetization and Impact 🤑
YouTube and creators earn revenue through Google AdSense, with most videos free to view. Premium channels and subscription services like YouTube Music and YouTube Premium offer ad-free streaming.
As of February 2017, over 400 hours of content were uploaded to YouTube every minute, with the site ranking as the second-most popular globally. By May 2019, this figure exceeded 500 hours per minute. 📈
