Another life update... oh boy.

I created this brief document about what I did over the summer, within the past month, and also detailed plans I have before the year ends. Check it out here: docs.google.com/document/d/1NC9xIDfSo-nrd1lVQLfVSD…

My summer break is officially over and I start school tomorrow. Here's how I ended the summer...

On Friday I took a trip to Algona to film some elevators. I had been wanting to visit for a while, so it was nice to knock it out of the way. I also stopped in Humboldt on the way home!

Uploads are currently scheduled out into June of 2026. Once again, my new editing style will be used in videos on April 1, 2026 and after.

Thanks for your continued support!

Hey everyone, I thought I'd just drop in here and give a few updates.

First off, I have started prioritizing video editing over the number of videos I upload. Starting in April 2026, you will begin to see fully edited videos with descriptive and vibrant thumbnails.

On the other hand, ‪@elevating_western_washington‬ and I had a great meetup here in Des Moines recently. Videos taken during that time will also release in April 2026. Thanks to Raine for visiting Des Moines, I had a great time showing you around!

Lastly, once again, thank you to all of my subscribers and viewers as I would not have ever come this far without you guys!

Have a great rest of your week!

Hello everyone!

Last night, I officially arrived back in Des Moines after a brief trip to New York City. The trip was a bit shorter than originally planned due to a 12 hour delay for the flight from DSM to LGA (and yes, I waited in the airport the entire time) but it went great! While the trip was moreso to visit family living in the area, I did film elevators I came across including some of the most iconic elevator filming spots in Manhattan. Videos from there start on March 6, 2026!

As always, thank you for your continued support of the channel!

An update on videos as this channel heads into June 2025:

I have officially scheduled videos into 2026! With that being said, I have a few special videos coming out at the end of the year.

One of these videos will be another ElevDSM Awards-style video, a format I last did in 2023. It will feature 20 total elevators with 5 from each category (from lowest to highest): modern hydraulic elevators, modern traction elevators, vintage hydraulic elevators, and vintage traction elevators.

I have also compiled all of the epic motors I have uploaded and plan to upload this year for my Epic Motor Compilation 2025.

Thank you for your continued support!

A few things I want to mention:

In the past month I have gotten over 50 new subscribers, a lot more than usual in that timeframe, so I first wanted to thank my subscribers for being a part of my elevator filming journey, as well as the countless amount of viewers watching my videos.

I also have scheduled out a backlog to November as of right now, and it is likely that I will soon have videos scheduled into 2026. With that being said, a "best elevator" uploaded in 2025 will be selected soon!

With summer coming, I have a few trips planned and one of them will get me a lot more elevator videos to upload.

Thank you so much for the continued support!

A HUGE thank you to the management at 801 Grand for making it possible for ‪@evwg99‬ and I to film the LAST original car in the building! I should be getting the video out tomorrow, and by the way, stay tuned as something epic is in the works….
