    Default Something Fun

    I've been watching this series on YouTube. Don't know the back story, but the videos are amusing and the carpentry FU level is very high.

    I’ve been watching a ton of videos lately too and it’s way better than reading peoples’ bickerings about dysfunctional politicians.

    I love the videos of people restoring old mechanical devices, sometimes neglected for decades.

    A little more 'modern' but relaxing to watch...


    Enjoy the design and skill that goes into the pieces.

    That guy has crazy skills. Thanks.

    In a somewhat similar vein, I enjoy vids like this one. One highlight is from around 7:30 to 11 where she makes a very cool piece to hold her pot over a fire.

    Eat one live toad first thing in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you all day.

    Joinery is incredible. And the best tool in that video is the little hammer. Such a great sound from that thing.

    I'm mesmerized by the ingenuity it takes to produce something so complex while working with simple tools. I could watch that stuff all day.

    How about a bridge without nails (though he does use an electric planer)?
