Electricians, lot of EV installs and solar and the like but interesting anyway
My favourite channels
I like makers mostly
Dainer Made
Aussie pallet upcycler
You get that distinct Aussie humour and an almost pathological dedication to process - you need lots of pallets to make stuff.
I don't even like half the shit he makes, but I enjoy watching him do it
The Handyman
Cocksure American, which I can live with, cos he can DO ANYTHING
Good editor, good content
An amazing breadth of knowledge and almost flawless skillset.
Blacktail Studios
Maybe my favourite channel
The guy makes very high end furniture - mostly tables - from expensive wood and epoxy
I like his delivery and he has a dry sense of humour. He's good, but understands that every vocation is a learning process.
And he has a dedication to getting things right - like he'll spend 4 hours filling and sanding a flippin' table.
He's a very good content producer, good editor etc. And uses AMAZING tools like an artist.
Odell Complete Concrete
Some Texan guy that does driveways and walls. Mostly concrete walks and paths though.
He has a very enjoyable delivery. Almost lazy, but a lifetime's knowledge behind it.
I have watched him build this wall many times.
Shawn Woods of Mousetrap Monday
The guy is a hunter that tests every single mousetrap there is
He has a very laidback, homely/folksy style. But the passion shines through with his own added innovations and his clear love of what he does.
Releases native species, feeds invasive ones to wildlife.
One of those people that reminds you that country people probably have it figured out better than us city folks who are too far up our own holes most of the time to notice.
Ireland desperately needs a home improvement show.
Not that wankology with the architect and people with shit tons of money putting in all glass rear walls so they can be in the Irish Times Weekend magazine.
Someone on TV showing you how a pro fixes a toilet, or stops a door squeaking, or change a light fixture.
The aspiration to respectability is a curse. Particularly in Ireland and England, and particularly RTE.RTE are obsessed with opulence, dermot cunting Bannon and €100k extensions.
Great stuffPersonable canadian woodworker and general all round delightfully nerdy dude

she's greatI'll just put her here as well. Laura Kampf, lovely maker who is building a 'tiny home' as a little break from a monster house renovation project. Her videos are only 20 mins, on a Sunday. Some bike stuff on there as well, I think.

OOOOOHHHHH
This motherfucker
Wristwatch Revival
Another example of something I would never ever do, but could watch this guy do it for an hour
Watches are bonkers. I would love a really good watch. This guy is an utter watch nerd. Just a hobbyist - it's not his job.
I cannot get enough of people with a quiet, dedicated (and infectious) passion
Making cheese is alright. There's an Aussie lad who makes all different cheeses on youtube that I've watched.
I'm currently out of the cheese making market, and more focused on mechanical watch servicing. There's this Birmingham Sikh lad who's cranking out top notch watch servicing content.
Ohh, no way. I was watching Marshal at the start. But this Brummie guy popped up and now I'm loving his stuff.I love this guy above.
Almost has me convinced I could do this (I could not do this)
If I can't get a good value used Submariner or Sea Dweller, I'm getting this fuckerOhh, no way. I was watching Marshal at the start. But this Brummie guy popped up and now I'm loving his stuff.
I've seen all these watches broken down, and you're absolutely right, you start thinking you could do it.
Yeah yeah, that's the escapment. That's the main spring. That's the crown. That might be an opposite thread. That's a complication, I don't understand that, but it's ok because it's a complication.
I have opinions now. Like, I prefer the hand wound movements over the automatic ones. I prefer the simple movements. The fucking state of me. I have one mechanical watch, and it's broken.
It is pretty though.
