Thank you! I'm definitely not the take-orders type! Haha! Although I do do customs IF I like the concept AND feel I can do it well AND enjoy it. I'm pretty stubborn, so I can relate to stubborn cars that refuse to start or turnover. I appreciate the warm welcome and support. I wonder why so many people leave the community? Do you mean creators or pedal pumping enthusiasts? Or both? -Mimi

Oh no I'm referring to content creators. It happens for a variety of reasons - with those who aren't explicitly into it, they'll do it for a while until they get bored or their custom orders dry up. Others have left the scene due to splits with partners they filmed with, relocating to less suitable premises, or financial issues resulting from the upkeep of cars that star in their videos - all sorts of reasons. Not trying to put you off by any means, but it's always good when someone genuinely interested in the subject matter comes along, as those people tend to be far more resilient to such issues should they occur (or perhaps less likely to experience them in the first place).
I don't force custom requests on people and I wouldn't necessarily have one for you at the moment anyway, but have you videoed any of your experiments thus far? If so, do you mind sharing one with us?

I'm happy to share! It might be easier to check out my Instagram @mimifootnip or YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2BnnvV...subscriber because my internet is super slow and it's not easy for me to upload clips. I tried uploading a photo here once and I was unsuccessful. Any tips for uploads? Thanks!
