We Made This For My Wheelchair!
Added:Another day, another home project.
>> We've hired a living uh groundskeeper slashbutler slash >> Well, he works in exchange for room and board.
>> Mhm. But he also cooks a lot. So, >> we're putting him to work. Hey, Michael.
Michael.
[laughter] Just kidding. I don't talk to him like that.
>> Oh my god. We're putting some lights on the ramp to make it a bit safer.
>> Good work, Michael.
You're at your dinner, huh?
[clears throat] >> Oh my god.
>> That's our best friend, Michael. He's not a butler, not a housekeeper, just a friend visiting. And he's very handy.
So, he's helping us put lights on our rim so that I don't drive off into the darkness anymore.
>> Speaking of darkness, guess who was wandering through the neighborhood last night at 12:30 a.m.?
>> Voldemort.
>> The two of us. We were coming up from the basement and Shane got to the top of the ramp and it was really nice out.
It's been super super hot in Minnesota this summer. And so, it was like 85. We were like, "Ooh, it's so cool outside."
>> There was a light breeze.
>> I haven't felt a breeze in a month.
Yeah, it's pretty hot out even now. So, we took a walk >> at 12:30 at night.
>> Yep.
>> And it felt deranged.
>> Yeah. It felt so bad.
>> It felt like we were like juvenile coincidence.
>> We were going to walk to the park, but we got to the end like to where the park would be. And the park was pitch black and so spooky. And I wasn't brave enough. Neither of us were brave enough to go in. So, we turned around and came home.
>> I didn't have my pepper spray.
>> No.
>> Or my whistle.
So, I was not able to get into the park.
However, >> uh the whole experience was very fun.
>> Yeah.
>> And I now vow to take a walk at midnight every other night.
>> No. No. Cuz we were in bed so late. It was bad.
>> Yeah. Then we got home.
>> We were all hyped up.
>> We were having a weird night. Our brains were much too awake.
>> Yep.
>> At the time that it was bedtime.
>> Yeah. But we were all hyped up. And then then I was hungry, so we had I had to have a meal. That took a while. Shame was playing Pokemon Go on his phone. And we went to bed at 1:30 on a Sunday night.
>> And I feel like that is a good encapsulation of our life lately. Not that we're staying out till midnight walking around our neighborhood. That sounds really [laughter] weird.
But like things have just been like weird and different and we've been having fun.
>> Yeah.
>> Like we've been doing things a little bit differently. Yeah, >> recently. And it's just been fun and we've been feeling very excited.
>> Yeah, it's been a good summer.
>> Look at my guest.
>> That's so cool. It's dirty now. Shane, I told you to wipe it off.
>> Please pause. We're going to pause here and do a new segment called Look at Shane's new guest.
>> Speaking of things that Michael is really, really good at.
>> Say hi, Michael.
>> He's almost done. Yeah, he's already almost done with all these >> uh he's really good at well almost everything but 3D printing like computer stuff. He can do anything on a computer.
So Shane got a 3D printer to use with Michael >> to learn >> to learn uh while Michael's here.
>> That hole was really close to that hole.
>> That's why it broke.
>> That's why it broke.
>> And now >> now it won't break.
>> We ripped it. And they printed a desk for Shane's chair and a cup holder, which is not on right now, but the desk is so cool. So, it goes into this like track track on the side.
>> Yes.
>> All parob chairs have. It's a standard part.
>> So, we printed a standard size like attachment.
>> Michael like scanned this, right? And then made this to fit it.
>> Yeah, he modeled something.
>> He fit perfectly. This is This desk is iteration number three. We had a few errors and problems and this is not up on our product yet.
>> There's another one printing right now.
>> Yeah, we're working on it.
>> But everyone takes about 5 hours to print. So, >> yeah, >> it takes time.
>> It's so cool. Shane can use his phone on it. He can use his laptop on it. Be mobile.
>> The sun is really in my eyes. Sorry that I look weird [laughter] right now. All right, >> let me stand up so you can see it better.
>> Let me rotate a little.
>> So cool.
And then my cup holder goes like in here and sits here and it's pretty much within Shane's like it doesn't make him super wide.
>> Yeah.
>> So that's nice. He still fits in our doorways.
>> And this is super stable. My dad put heavy objects on here with no problem.
>> Drinks on it. Yeah.
>> Um so >> it's like very very stable.
>> We endeavor to make these for people.
I've heard from thousands of you that like custom items for your chair that work for you would be great and we want to do that. Like we have the skills and we want to help. So, we're going to put a form below. We are not ready to like >> Shane, are we really going to put a form below?
>> Wait, wait. I just want to if you are interested in ongoing info about what we are making, >> put your email in the form. I have no idea what this will end up being. But if you love it, I want to be able to show you what we're doing as we make more and maybe you'll like what we're doing. So yeah, uh Blue Business Metal and Shane Designs LLC launching right now.
>> Right now.
>> Just sitting.
>> Oh, Michael's onto the platform.
>> Good job.
>> Doing my best.
>> I'll warm up your food.
>> Yeah. Can you put it in the trunk?
>> You haven't slothed yet.
>> You get another chicken wing, Michael.
When you finish, >> I get my rule.
>> Cooking in our house is a whole production. By the time we've decided what to make, checked ingredients, got everything out. We're both too hungry to even think about cooking. Eating balanced meals is usually the first thing that falls apart when we're busy.
>> So, we started using Factor. Chef made meals delivered to the door, ready in 2 minutes. No prep, no clean up, >> which is the part that actually changes our night. It completely erases the production.
>> There are over 100 meals, breakfast, dinners, snacks. Most have 30 g of protein or more.
>> And they're picky about ingredients in a way we respect. No artificial stuff.
They ban over 175 ingredients.
>> We've gotten into the Mediterranean ones lately. Roasted parsnip, celery root.

>> We have finally hit 71°, a new low.
>> We are ecstatic.
>> And the high today is 80, so it's going to get warmer. It's still the morning. I am a little warm in my sweatshirt, but I am trying to keep it on with all of my might.
>> It's been like a 100 for the last month.
>> Yeah.
>> Ah, and there's a breeze in the air. It feels so good. Chloe will finally walk.
>> Yeah, Chloe's having a great time.
>> Do you notice anything new about Shane as of this morning?
>> You can tell where you are. Come into the mirror.
