    I got tired of scrolling and searching through the thread for the pizza recipe, so I copied it out to a word doc for future reference. It was a long post, but until I pasted, I had no idea. 2654 words. After shrinking all the pics to page width, that’s 24 pages. Wow. I know this thread...

    Engineer here. My full time job is almost always put 10 lbs of $h!+ in a 5 lb bag. In my case, get machining and welding equipment into places they were never meant to go. Which means in my case, both difficult to service and compromised rigidity (the equipment must be hand carried and...

    Wow. My oldest daughter is 2 months older than this thread. Didn’t realize it had been a part of my life for so long. I’ll need good ideas for building my escape loft in my shop before both daughters are teenagers, so keep it going!

    Really like this. It’s a big enough moment that saying nothing is saying something, so you might as well say what you have to say. And I really enjoyed what you had to say.

    24x36 Garage Build, and Questions

    They recently changed code here that walls 10’ and higher must be 2x6, citing crappy soft lumber. Maybe a similar situation? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    24x36 Garage Build, and Questions

    That is 24 x 36 with 12’ walls, straight trusses. 9’ sounds like a bad idea to me Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    If video at your level is only doubling your build time then your doing great!

    Ding Ding! This is the type of innovation coupled with cheapness I was looking for. Thanks for sharing, absolutely giving this a try

    Thanks for the tungsten answer. I haven’t seen that and will look for it. Sometimes the video from the self aware guy learning is a lot better than the video from the subject matter expert. At least I tell myself that....

    Thanks. That is my current soloution (except for the wheels, thanks for the tip). My problem has been dedicating the space for a tungsten only wheel. I tried a little 2” harbor freight job, but when I’m not stalling it, I’m cutting right through the wheel with the tungsten. So generally I do...

    Tangent. I’m curious about your tungsten sharpening process. You always put so much detail into your tool and process selection, I’m curious what you do (please let it be something cheap and awesome rather than a $1500 purpose built unit)?

    Pizza would be a great “try out the full gear” video, and if you’re going to do varied content all on the same channel (a mistake for most, I think the right call for you), that would go ahead and set the algorithm into deep thought regarding what the heck you are doing. Personally, it would...

    Saw the video! Fantastic editing, great pace, and I think going short on the first couple of videos is the right call. The thumbnail is top notch, and I’d imagine a pro photographer understands how crucial that is. Couple of points from a fairly unsuccessful YouTuber who has researched this...
