Yes I'm all caught up, I love what he's done with so little and he makes me want a Tig machine, his videos make it look so easy!

Also how many dogs does he have, I count 4 different ones so far

Get a tig. gently caress if I had a stable life and home I'd get one. I was looking at a multi system before but I've had to sell all my workshop equipment off and couch surf, so no chance for me.
I watched up to episode 11 last night when I couldn't sleep. Some of it is funny, but other times I couldn't care less about a turbo diesel patrol with an ice tray.

Lots of better projects out there even in AI but the goons don't have tigs.

Clickspring is pretty great for mechanical machine shop porn.

Cold War Motors. Sick Cars for a Sick Planet. If super low budget rescue of ancient junkers about to be crushed from the icy grave of Albertan junkyards is your jam, you will love this channel.

Sometimes he does more extensive restorations. This doesn't mean the end result is going to look like a showroom car, but they're still amazing projects. The whole series on the Fraser is great, and the Citroen SM is shaping up to be even better.

I watched the newest one last night and I'm in awe of his rust repairs (cutting out, welding, bending/shrinking, dent repair), huge pity he shows none of that on camera or any sheet metal workshop tools he must have, but you get to see he can repair properly- not just make a door out of bog/bondo. Most of the vids are just stoned/drinking and loving around or dog parts though.

There are a ton of other auto body videos he's done on that channel. There is no way he's not either a pro or spent a very long time being a pro, and not at a Carstar chop-shop.

The Model A restoration series has some good fab work and he takes it a little slower than normal (it's hard to hold a camera and bang out panels at the same time).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=igsr-0-E910

The FJ45 patch panel video is slower paced too, and has some really cool tricks for lining poo poo up.

Nothing can compare to his Easy Rust Repair video, though. There is nothing like it on the internet and you absolutely need to watch it.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not new to the channel and I have seen all his vids. I'm just saying you see more goofing around than skills in most vids, but they definitely have skills.

I would definitely recommend bigclivedotcom, if you enjoy watching a campy Scotsman pull apart cheap trashy electronics (in some cases actual serious deathtraps), figuring out how they work, making entertaining modifications to them and occasionally hurting himself. Also trashy booze and insights into the world of stage/show electrical work.

I'd avoid ChrisFix's detailing advice though. I don't think he actually knows what he's doing, and just got the information together for a video. The collab. video he did with Saabkyle (where they clean and polish his car) is really bad. There are much better videos from people who actually know what they are talking about.

The latest AvE video on rusty bolts and penetrants has me a bit soured on ChrisFix - turns out he blindly copied some data that were in lbs and presented them as ft/lbs. It's my impression he's a decent shadetree mechanic, but an engineer he ain't...

Abom79 is one of my favourite machining guys on youtube. His way of explaining poo poo is just so easy to follow and listen along too, and he does 90% repair work rather than creating stuff from scratch, which is right up my alley. And hes a manual machinist too.

Cold war motors guy is super sad again. About 2 moths ago he said he thought about quiting when his dog stella died, now he's thinking about quitting because YT only pays about 7.50 a month or something.
Even though most of my money goes on rent, car, booze, rollies and food (in that order, sometimes I only have $15/wk for food lol), I only need to know what colour stickers to get.
So goons, I have a white car; should i get a black sticker to put onto the boot lid between the tail light and licence plate, or a white sticker to put on the rear window? :v:

I never knew anything about shapers until I got drawn into abom79's rebuild; does a great job of describing machine work, and job shop stuff which has a ton of very practical insights.

Stephan Gottswinter has some amazing videos; mostly rebuilding and improving his own (and others) machines and tools. Hand scrape and rebore a brand new rotary table so it's good to a few tenths of a thou? Mechanical Insanity.

Tom Lipon (oxtoolco) is absolutely nuts about metology and does really neat design analysis; dude has a ton of experience and works at the (insane, massive) Berkeley labs facility.

Edge Precision does some incredible stuff, but on a big mazak (mostly) and gets into CNC programming, making his own tooling and it still comes off with just as much operator finess as the manual guys.

Laughing at the one starting around 1:00 where the second I see the first frame I know what's going to happen, then the guy in the lead does it, then the cammer follows and does the same exact thing.

edit: So are all these people who seemingly randomly lowside in turns doing something wrong or are motorcycles just that unstable when the pavement is even slightly wet? I've ridden maybe two miles on a dirt bike and other than that all my two wheel experience is human powered. I remember wiping out like that a few times on my bike when I was younger but it had a nearly bald back tire from kid me liking to skid to a stop so I have no idea how that compares.
