1:47
all right we spent about an hour in the
1:47
car hour commute up into the mountains
1:50
away from

quink my uncle was tell me about this
1:53
place this is a a very famous guitar
1:57
maker right up here in the mountains I
2:00
guess it's been here for many many years
2:01
got a little mural on the
2:05
side as well we're going to check out a
2:09
guitar
2:15
maker give us a little demonstration
2:15
about how put the guitar they put the
2:17
guitars together and all the details in
2:19
the guitar
2:20
Prett place has been in the family for
2:23
years past time from generation to
2:24
generation come come
3:14
so we have three kind of woods
3:58
the the knife isn't working very good
3:58
right now but he's working they got
4:01
those little pieces like that that's
4:17
prob with the one that is 18 okay
4:18
mhm on one of my ukes I got it
4:21
personalized they put a j on it you know
4:23
oh that's cool yeah you got it here yes
4:26
oh okay
4:33
to make this and this takes a lot of
4:33
time
4:53
yeah so this little three things that
4:53
you see here makes the acoustic sounds
4:55
good this one is anele that's why we
4:58
have only three but in The Ether we have
5:00
nine that comes in another position so
5:03
this is the body of a ukulele
5:07
yes you four four strings instead of six
5:23
right so you see it has three corves one
5:23
two and three so it thinks a little bit
5:25
more of time to make it to bend it
5:28
around to shape it yeah this is what he
5:30
used to shape it oh that is big metal
5:44
beam get the we
5:44
got the we have to take the measure from
5:47
here to here and then to here from
5:50
here so they could for the little here
6:02
bone it makes up the the strings and the
6:02
fretboard go
6:09
across the in this model the most uh
6:09
expensive one will be 40 uh
6:13
480 480 yeah but the cheap is we have
6:16
also
6:18
160 see this is that's a six string
6:21
right yeah no no one two 12 string yeah
6:25
12
6:25
string it's a little different that's
6:27
made from turtle shell
6:31
I don't think this one is it kind of
6:32
looks like it but no this not turtle
6:33
shell this the wood still
6:45
but this is a lot bigger than standard
6:45
size ulele I've got the smaller size and
6:47
then a bigger size up so like a ten I
6:50
guess a ten ukulele and a reg
7:04
he has been here 10 years and before he
7:04
was
7:11
B has been pass on for many generations
7:11
this is his dad but even before his
7:13
father there were other guitar makers
7:15
here in town this location they've been
7:17
here for 10 years at this particular
7:19
location
7:21

7:24
probably yes okay all right
7:36
he made one for enri you know who is
7:36

7:41
base I don't really not really good at
7:43

7:45
pretty good on the bass guitar I can
7:47
hold my own on a
7:49
bass but I can't play guitar Bas guitar
7:52
on it I as if they had a four string
7:54
base no four string acoustic bases the
7:57
only four string instrument they have is
7:58

8:05
discuss it's kind of interesting
8:05
that said he's never made a four string
8:08
acoustic base before we've made a lot of
8:10
guitars pretty interesting though I've
8:13

9:55
going to a hat
9:57

10:07
located in this building
10:23
here take this look at this it's like a
10:23
huge hat right
10:26
here yes looks like it has some kitchen
10:28
table Style legs holding it
10:33
up then you pull back and you can see
10:35
it's
10:36
just six Sig
10:38
Ecuador hat
10:40
shop going to show the process of making
10:43
the
10:52
hats this is the shop that sells the
10:52
hats they
10:58
make got myself a decent hat about a
10:58
week ago been wearing it pretty much
11:01
every day you really need one here with
11:03
the sun and the
11:05
rain a flamingo
11:20
cap there you go it's a nice one right
11:20
there that's a good one $30 for that one
11:26
that one says eador on the side of it a
11:28
hat making machine
11:30
oh look at this the little templates of
11:32
hats I never seen that
11:58
interesting yeah this is very
11:58
interesting it's like like the templates
12:01
of all the different hat
12:18
hat so the car gets they heat it up with
12:18
the fire first
12:20
yes so after
12:29
they those it like that I believe
12:29
right and then this I believe presses
12:31
down on it to make the form to form fit
12:34
it with the heat yeah something I never
12:37
thought of is how a hat is actually
12:39
made never really contemplated like how
12:42
it's actually done this this is the
12:49
r this is what it looks like before then
12:49
they snip all the little pieces off of
12:51
it and mold it to where it doesn't look
12:53
quite like
12:54
this noticing a lot of these has the tag
12:57
here this is the company's name
13:00
so you have that one and then even this
13:02
one will also have the the tag on it I
13:05
guess that's the hat size see if this
13:08
one has it as well nope this one doesn't
13:10
have it see if this one has
13:13
it no that one doesn't have it either
13:16
may there's only oh there we
13:19
go that's a 58
13:40
hats are very very popular around
13:40
here you see they firstable color and
13:43
then they putut it on little
13:45
Parts this is the beginning of a hat yes
13:49
and when it is like
13:51
this they start sing is that the word
13:55
yes yeah
13:56
they twist it t
14:00
together with forms it it depends on the
14:03
technique how they want to do it the ti
14:07
the tighter the uh the co the expensive
14:10
right cuz it takes more time oh it's all
14:13
about how long it takes to make up so
14:15
how yeah how many of these ones are sh
14:19
there and they twist it forget the so
14:24
this is the first so this here would
14:26
turn into this this form this form first
14:30
yeah this is the first Farm how it
14:32
finished after that they cut all the
14:35
things here mhm and they go to the Ms
14:39
and get the form so they would drop that
14:41
in there there may be a little extra off
14:43
they'll trim it off and then they'll she
14:45
doing it right now she's doing right now
14:48
okay she she going to take care of us
14:50
here yeah show us what we're doing here
14:53
see the process
15:11
that just like a piece of leather that
15:11
goes over top of
15:13

15:15
temperature
15:29
who that's cool
15:29

just I love a good Town Square I don't
19:03
know why I'm partial to just small
19:07
downtowns that have Town
19:09
squares I just love it reminds me of
19:13
like I don't know what it reminds me of
19:15
but everything I everything I enjoy
19:17
about small towns usually involves a
19:18
square
19:41
looks like some of the these trucks are
19:41
like taxis these Transportation
19:43
devices like uh
19:47
taxis best I could tell believe my uncle
19:50
was telling me in one of the other towns
19:51
that you could get these and use them
19:54
but you could also use the back of them
19:56
if you if need be here comes a a bigger
19:57
taxi right there
20:00
not the motorcycle but
20:02
the that got myself a piping hot
20:04
caffeinated beverage tiny tiny piping
20:08
hot caffeinated beverage why are the
20:10
coffees so small in Ecuador I'll never
20:16
know Yep this is the coffee that's the
20:19
only size they had Cafe
20:23
conche I'm learning the binocular
20:46
Town one thing about coffee I've noticed
20:46
here too when you go in there's never
20:48
like a line for coffee it's usually
20:51
Another Place Another that has a lot of
20:52
other items like I went to a gelato
20:54
place and they had coffee instead of
20:55
getting gelato got coffee a lot of
20:57
places are that way they not really
20:58
designated coffee places and then you
21:01
usually have to wait like 3 four 5
21:03
minutes for them to make coffee it's not
21:04
like a line of people to get coffee and
21:07
uh drip coffee is not on tap here as
21:11
much as you would have it in the US what
21:13
I'm used to anyway at least that's what
21:15
I've noticed and this is about 1 18 the
21:18
size of a medium or large coffee would
21:20
be I guess this is a trash can
21:33
it was raining really good at the hat
21:33
shop but after driving in the car for a
21:36
while commuting back or the van back
21:38
over this way the rain has subsided it's
21:40
nice again
22:18
I keep wondering what these little
22:18
cardboard cutouts are up here see them
22:20
in all the little towns we've been going
22:22
to and evidently this is one of the
22:24
presidential
22:25
candidates that the election was a few
22:27
days ago not really sure what the
22:30
outcome was but I guess that's what the
22:32
the cardboard cutouts are that
22:39
coin oh yeah I want to get a coin purse
22:42
this is a very coin driven Community not
22:46
a lot of bills you you pay for 20 and
22:48
they give you everything back in dollar
22:49
coin so you always have a lot of coins
22:51
in your pocket and everything is usually
22:52
like a dollar they have coin purses coin
22:56
yeah they got them here they got them
22:57
there coin
22:59
I am
23:01
Groot I'm getting a coin purse it's kind
23:05
of neat even though we are not in quink
23:07

23:09
going to get myself one to keep all my
23:12
$1 bills up all my $1 coins this was
23:23

23:26
dollar coins in it I pay with a it was
23:28
$2 they gave me three coins back pretty
23:31
much everything is paid with coins you
23:33
know $1 or $2 is the average price of
23:35
everything now I got a coin purse going
23:38
inside the perta Del Soul for a well
23:42
maybe this isn't it I think we're
23:44
supposed to be looking at a
23:45
demonstration oh in here the next one
23:48
over a jewelry demonstration oh look at
23:51
this it's a toy soldier I like this
23:53
little rock
23:55
guy let's learn about some jewelry
23:57
something I know nothing think about are
24:00
you the jewel are you going to teach us
24:01
about
24:03
jewelry you going to give us a
24:05
demonstration hey
24:08
buddy how you
24:21
doing so his name
24:21
is he is the second generation from the
24:24
family who started uh doing this
24:27
technique of the F
24:30
you that's technique that I show
24:33
you it's
24:35
been 90 years maybe 90 years years doing
24:41
it between Heavenly Father family
24:57
yes we buy the silver in that form it
24:57
can be
24:59
five pound kilos five kilos kilos kilos
25:03
yes or
25:13
more so we put it we putut it on parts
25:13
and we put in a
25:19
little recipent
25:27
like for fire like cooking it yeah yeah
25:27
yeah yeah yeah
25:38
so after it is
25:38
cooked
25:39
liquid yeah they put it on a little
25:42
thing like that and makes the little
25:45
balls like that
26:03
so that's for doing little uh little
26:03
pieces cuz this is too much right so
26:06
after they got this in little pieces
26:09
they make it again they cook it again
26:12
make and then they put it
26:15
on put on
26:17
there so we have
26:21
four CES oh wow look at that yeah so
26:25
that works for one for the
26:54
good you're going to pass through that
26:54
many times until it gets long enough
27:06
see it's now yeah stretching it out yes
27:06
just keeps on getting better and
27:28
and after you got that you everything
27:28
I
27:30
mean after we get that yes now we're
27:33
going to do everything with the
27:35
hands so this one is the same that is in
27:39
there you see each
27:42
little hole they're going to pass
27:45
through all the holes until it gets
27:49
Tighter and Tighter and titer
28:02
and that's the last one that you get
28:02
that's how small it is the small is yes
28:04
a tiny hole there
28:38
so with that tiny little p we're going
28:38
to make the principal
28:47
form like a for example you see just
28:47
like a Lea
29:16
you make it like with the with a heart
29:16
on your kiss you just like solder it
29:21
yeah solder yes all the pieces to get
29:24
one
29:32
so this word comes from the Latin word
29:46
says so in the little straw that we have
29:46
from the silver we're going to make
29:50
a texture to have a texture cuz it's
29:53
just a stra right make it we're going to
29:56
make it form you see
30:09
so it gives the texture by using
30:09
that oh yeah so it's got the
30:13
little oh yeah wow pretty
30:35
so when all the little spes are not
30:35
empty you know they yeah they solder
30:38
again
30:41
they so they got together
31:01
they put
31:09
that like solder sold solder okay like
31:09
solder see
32:13
last Coca-Cola pulling
32:21
through now we're going to go in the
32:21
actual gift
32:23
