There's on opposite ends of the DIY spectrum in many ways both both have zero-bullshit video formats that I love.

People Like Diresta and AvE have definite skill but their video formats just sorta rub me the wrong way.

>>1676987
What did the UK do to drive him insane?

>>1679281

the TL;DR is that he tried to marry an Indian woman, then have her move in with him in the UK, but the gov't. kept fucking him over on immigration. There was a lot of back n' forth in that, the full video of him explaining it is still up as a re-upload somewhere on you-tube.

>>1679287
He didn't try to marry her. He actually did it. Even after several rejections of her visa beforehand. Then after being married the Home Office rejected it again.

>>1676354
>>1676353
Mantzel is simultaneously a genius, and an insane retard. I remember watching some video of him cutting and shaping a sheet of treadplate to fabricate a shovel or something. Meanwhile he was monologuing about modern safety equipment, and how it's all some scam by the illuminati to keep people from working or some shit. And then he immediately flipped the fresh cut edge down across his live power cord, and started trying to bend it by forcing it against the ground.

that sub-genre of knock-offs that he spawned (I'm thinking of the southeast asians) blows my mind on several levels. They don't quite get why people watch him, so they do gay shit like take 20000 hours to build an underground hut with a moat around it or build a snake trap out of bicycle parts.

>>1675248
I enjoy the subject matter of some of his videos, but I stand his british columbian hillybilly schtick and accent. Nobody here talks like that even in the hillbilliest of rural villages.

>>1681290
His accent is real, he came from a town 15 minutes away from me before moving
The way he speak a lot of nonsense is a gimmick because he chokes on his words so much that he just decides to go with whatever sounds come out of his mouth
His videos are still pretty interesting despite the annoying gimmick

>>1681394
No he's just from rural Canada, about 15 minutes from where I live, his accent is 100% real.

>>1684178
Sure we can, go ahead and make it!

>>1684181
I'm not trying to be lazy - but I'm legit a total /diy/ newfag, hence why I'm interested

>>1684183
I'm not gonna shop up a whole categorized infographic right now, maybe in the morning. What subjects are you interested in? I can give recs for related channels

>>1684176
Kek, I've learned my wife's pregnant in the meantime. I live in the Netherlands though and I intend to keep doing so. Luckily I live in the east and not the Sodom and Gomorrah which are the Holland provinces

>>1677240
This is kind of true. The fact that she willingly moved there with children is a testament to both his and her character

>>1684186
Congratulations fellow east Netherlander. Our country isn't the greatest in a lot of ways, but everything outside of the western provinces isn't that bad. Just a shame we're so expensive. In building materials and general, and there's so little nature.

>>1684199
Thanks! Indeed, out of the Randstad, life is bretty gud. Things are expensive but real estate here is pretty cheap (for Dutch standards) and there is plenty of space and nature (again, for Dutch standards). Also if you shop smart, you can save a lot of money. For materials, I know a guy who shops directly from wholesale, saves money and board material like drywall and MDF are delivered to the doorstep without 100 Gamma/Praxis mongoloids having driven dents into them with forklifts. Also I used to have a registered business, still have the KvK number so I shop at Bouwmaat instead of pleb diy shops. Groceries can be bought on the cheap at Aldi or Lidl, or in Germany. Same for petrol and liquor (muh Kaufland)

>>1684184
No worries, brother. Any effort will be appreciated
I'm just after a general intro into the good channels
Too noob to be the one to suggest these, but off the top of my head: carpentry, metalwork, housebuilding, watercraft, aqueducts, specific skills like welding/casting

>>1684186
Congratulations!
I truly think the most important thing is the Holy Faith, with this one can withstand the depths of babylon, and without it one will be corrupted just by one's own temptations.
Second to that is family life, then community.
All blessings to your wife and child.

>>1684207
This. Faith has helped me immensely. Luckily my wife was willing to convert and we had a Catholic wedding and she will be baptised next year. I firmly believe the Lord blessed us with this child, apparently my wife is 5 weeks pregnant after 8 weeks of marriage kek

>>1684231
I'm sure the father will be so proud. :^)

>>1684231
That's so beautiful, brother.
I just listened to this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsxgujZhjYI

I highly encourage you to do the Sacred Heart Enthronement if you haven't already, and consecrate each child to the Immaculate Heart.
Godbless.

Shame about his fucked up back

>>1684255
I will look into it. The child will be baptised (scJ) of course, but if there are any other rites which could be of value I will be sure to read up on them. I'm in the process of making a home altar too, any suggestions? I now have a novene candle, a Bible, a rosary and the dried palm leaf of this year. I will add an altar crucifix and a holy water vessel shortly. Could be a fun /diy/ thread too

>>1684260
I don't want to derail the thread too much, so I'll keep it brief.
Check out (every) sermon on that channel I posted.
They have ones specifically for the home, but on everything else too.

God I can't stand his fucking wife and her annoying voice and dumb remarks

>>1684183

The diy spirit is to try, fuck up, endure ridicule, try again, and fuck up slightly less badly each time until everyone whose opinion you respect is dead.

So just make an infographic and decide what goes where. You'll get a ton of bitching. Listen to what seems like good advice and tell everyone else to fuck up.

Either you will be the proud custodian of a new infographic, or someone else will get pissed off enough to make a better competitor and then it's HIS problem.

>>1685339
He's an arrogant prick that doubles down on his ignorance. His gimmick has gotten stale as well. His early videos were way better.

>>1685339

4chan hates anything popular or successful.

And yeah he's a little gimmicky lately.

>>1685339

when he's in his element, he's great. problem is that he tries to go beyond his element too often.

For example, I like his Hass station vids because he isn't trying to put on or pretend he knows exactly how to do it, he just fucks around and admits it when he fucks stuff up. He trolls the fuck out of the PracticalMachinist dickheads, which is great.

on the other hand, when he gets into the engineering and questioning-design stuff, he has a boomer-tier "not muh forged steel" attitude about things that's annoying.

>>1685362


>>1685438
Yea it just seems when he says he isn't sure he does come back and admit it later in the videos. I guess I get it's a gimmick and doesn't bother me.

>>1685339
his slang is annoying as shit.

>>1685547
You really have to be canadian or eastern canadian to get it. I find a lot of australian channels hard to watch for the same reasons.

>>1685547
This. He can't go 5 seconds without saying a dumb meme

>>1685557

I get his shit and it was funny at first but having him shoehorn that shit into every fucking word over and over pisses me off

>>1677458

Tomboy GF? I'm gonna need to see some pics. I went through a few vids and couldn't find her. If she has short hair too i'm gonna die.

>>1681270
FAAAAAAAGGG
His videos are garbage and unplanned with little to no research. For a while I could stand his preaching and right wing conspiracies. But when he started berating his son for loving reading and being introverted I stopped watching. That kid is going to be fucked up being homeschooled and sheltered like that.

>>1681383
He just uploaded a vid 19 hours ago.

Jmantzel. Above someone made a big post about him. He's the type of channel I'd want my kids to watch. A pretty good role model but he rambles sometimes.
>>1684177
>>1681338
>>1685216
Fuck yea PROJECT FARM!! I don't think i've seen any other videos with as much cut and clear information as his.
>>1685159
SvSeeker is cool. Visited his place once. Editing and dialogue are great. However he plans on using bus windows as the permenant windows to a oceangoing vessel. I hope he changes his mind on that.

Also noone mentioned Mr Chickadee

>>1686823
>Tomboy GF?
Shes in his Building a shipping container castle tower video lifting concrete slabs like a boss..

>>1686823
Chickadee's work may be interesting but the dude seems pretentious. Stopped watching around when he started putting his own quotes at the beginning of videos.
Mantzel seems like the kind of guy who probably fucks his kids, or will in the future.

Dicks digs is a cool channel

>>1679853
I watched one of his videos and it bugged the shit out of me that his name was on literally EVERY SINGLE THING in his shop. Is he autistic or something?

Bad obsession Motorsports. If /o/ and /diy/ had a baby.

A good way to check out a channel you havent seen is to look their name up and sort by most views. Or check their page for a channel trailer.
>>1686843
If you think his work is bad wait until you discover Wranglestar.

>Jimmy Diresta

This guy makes me crazy sometimes. His work in his actual trade (sign making) is good, but the rest of his videos are like 50% half assed fuckery. People want to pretend he's some sort of diy Messiah, but he's just not. He can't even karate chop steel bar stock into sections like This Old Tony does...

AvE is a real American treasure.

>>1688731
That's a pretty bold claim, one I'm sure even the man himself wouldn't agree with. It's not so much the ends that bug me, it's often the means. Does an axe who's handle was hung without a diagonal wedge chop wood? Yes. Is there the potential for it to someday fail because of that? Also yes. Can we form a knife bevel with a dye grinder? Yes. Will that knife have inconstant primary bevels? Certainly. To me, great craftsmanship is about how things are done, not simply plowing forward the fastest way.

>>1688933
For the record, he's Canadian

This nigga

>>1688941
Not only that, he's French Canadian.

Didn't see anyone mention Marco Reps. Entertaining to me, at least.

>>1688941
Canada is part of North America ye?

>>1689034

>Dry German humor
>Crazy electrical

yeah, he's legit

>>1689257
Certainly, but exactly 0 Canadians refer to their great stuff/people as American treasures.

>>1688941
That doesn't mean he isn't a treasure to us.

Besides when Quebec secedes we will own all their asses anyway.

>>1677592
mustie1 is the business.

Proper cosy watching, and I've learned shitloads from watching him. (Mostly - it's always a blocked carb)

>>1689288
That's because they don't want to be mistaken for Americans.

You fucking negative twat.

Fuck off to /b, nobody wants you here with that shit attitude. Fuck off, go on.

>>1690271
>be positive about everything, no matter if it's a complete waste of time, or it gets their family killed :)
There's this website called leddit and they'd love to have you around. You could also go to Mantzel's YouTube comments section and tell everyone that indeed, holding your house together with rope is a perfectly valid design decision, and hell, even if he and his family die in it, what really matters is staying positive instead of attacking others' creative ideas.

>>1676353

JESUS CHRIST. I've met Jaimie. I studied mechE at UVM and had a classmate from Royalton, VT. We grew close and I started visiting him at his folk's house every once in a while. My friend was really into motorcycles and I met Jaimie because he was helping my friend fix up some bike (idk anything about bikes). Very nice guy, very polite. I had no idea he did all this shit. I'm happy things are working out for him.

>>1688952

Learn to make a better joint

>>1692041
The pocket hole is the strongest joint because it uses metal.

>>1692055
You sure about that?
https://youtu.be/apsH8eBfjVA

>>1692069
If they are so shitti, why are the best youtubers using them?

>>1692070
AvE doesn't use pocket joints

>>1692069
People make shit with butt joints on shit MDF that hold a lot of weight, pocket holes work just fine, they are just ugly to see, but if you want beauty and strength, go buy a Domino or a Lamello Dual Dowler or spend 20 minutes to do a single M&T

>>1692041

>imagine have so oily wood that you have to device complicated joinery that isnt more strong than the humble tenon and mortise of the Western woodworking

>>1692094
>not getting the point of demountable joinery

>>1692101
You don't need asian autism for knock down furniture. They use these joints because their traditions couldnt never solve the issue of oily stock that can't be glued

Lurker here.

How do you feel about Techmoan?

>>1692075

Yeah but that's just because the dumb cuck isn't getting sponsored by Rockler. Pocket hole joinery is the mark of quality. Have you tried Rockler? They make the best jig for pocket hole joinery. And if you buy one now, you can get 5% off your next purchase. Just use the coupon code 4chan4eva when you buy. Also, don't forget to like and subscribe. We have t shirts and a patreon now, too.

>>1692106

Joints that don't require glue also tend to perform better with wood movement. Modern glue bonds are stronger than the wood itself, so when humidity changes, any failures tend to be catastrophic.

>>1692199
Does that matters in a modern American home that has proper humidity level control?

jesus this guy is like an exaggerated version of my dad. the refusal to work, dislike of society, and yet simultaneously feverish devotion to projects, mixed with keen intelligence and autism. you know what thats probably most peoples dads around here given how many NEET autists here there are it must be genetic

>>1692219

Yes, because humidity only has to change a couple times (AC is out, you're moving to a new home and have your furniture in a truck, etc.) For things to start, and then they escalated out of control on their own.

>>1694610

Show some fucking respect. If it weren't for guys like this, you wouldn't have chicks with daddy issues, which means no strippers and instahoes to wet your willy. Some even go for NEET autists like you because you remind them of daddy.

Shit, loving fathers like AvE are destroying our chances of getting laid. If you want to tap hot asses in your 40s and 50s, buy a beer for a terrible father today. And don't forget to like and subscribe. And stop watching AvE.

Baumgartner Restoration, Torbjorn Ahman, Mustie1, and Thomas Johnson haven't been mentioned enough.

I wish Essential Craftsman was my grandpa.

Rachel Gingell gets me rock hard when she tells me how to replace a tractor engine with that shitty north midwest accent.

Also, Diresta is a faggot. So is Fireball Tool, but I would buy one of his vises in a heartbeat.

>>1675181
Tally Ho Boat Restoration is a pretty cool project series. Dude really knows his stuff.
