November 23, 20178 yr comment_132286 Guys, since I have to take it a little easy for the short-term future and I seem to learn better from visual input can you sugest some of your favorite YouTube WW. I have subscribed to most of the more well known ones but am looking for any rare or new ones I might not have heard of. Report
November 23, 20178 yr comment_132296 I enjoy most everything I've seen from Paul Sellers...usually the right mix of telling & doing w/o all the drama and video add-ons.. Stumpy Nubs for some things but sometimes way too much yaking and little substance IMHO. Woodworking for Mere Mortals-Steve Ramsey; sometimes too much drama here too. WoodworkWeb Izzy Swan Rob Cosman A lot of free videos, tips, etc. at The Woodworkers Guild of America site (George Vondriska); but also a You-tube Channel TPW very own @Steve Krumanaker for turning... April Wilkerson for some DIY/woodworking...she's come a long way since her launch...has some good project ideas from time-to-time Often times, I just randomly search for an area of interest or subject or tool, see what pops up then drift from there...e.g. tool sharpening, plane reconditioning, box making, table saw jigs, etc...some scare the "h" out me watching what they do...others literally put me to sleep, but sometimes I find a real nugget...

November 23, 20178 yr comment_132298 For a little bit off topic but entertaining just the same check out the Russian car accidents on You Tube. From the number of videos available I think they have Vodka for breakfast. A bonus is learning to swear in Russian. I watched some when I was laid up a while back. https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=russian+accidents Report

Couldn't understand a thing he said except "torx." After doing the job and seeing your post Dan maybe he was swearing...who knew! Anyways the video was great even if I couldn't swear in Russian. Could not have done the job without it. Report
November 23, 20178 yr comment_132314 If you are into woodturning, check out "Rick Turns". Once a month he publishes a list of all of the You Tube turning videos for the previous month. Here's the list for October Other turners are Captain Eddy- https://www.youtube.com/user/capneddie/featured Tim YOder- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOXBtgBVAAro9pyp4Q5_3lQ Carl Jacobson- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCirYSGBqwN5V0wxP72fuUGg Izzy Swan is amazing (except for that backwards hat ) Hope this helps.

November 24, 20178 yr comment_132321 Search YouTube for Steve Hay or Woodworking master Class. Great stuff. Rob Cosman does some good stuff, too. Report
November 24, 20178 yr comment_132329 I've always enjoyed the format and quality, and content and music of Doucette and Wolfe Furniture Makers. https://www.youtube.com/user/doucetteandwolfe Report
November 24, 20178 yr comment_132348 If you search by topic rather than source, you get a pretty wide distribution. I learn a lot from the differences between approaches. No one, no matter how expert, has a corner on good ideas. Report

December 5, 20178 yr Author comment_133355 Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the YouTube creators, I have all the recomended ones in my subscriptions and have enjoyed all for different reasons. I think just because I don't have any experience turning that didn't involve getting the hell scared out of me when the piece came off the lathe I'm just gun shy to try it again. Report
December 5, 20178 yr comment_133401 Some of the above plus https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCckETVOT59aYw80B36aP9vw https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIrtu3uSwehD0pfmfMsHhUA https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCsdIja21VT7AKkbVI5y8bQ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-7XY-W_C84cW2MNqujgFpg https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcdLKZkv7kY0Ov5RxjyrZAw and https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=numberphile But not all regularly.
