Favorite YouTube smiths?

I did a quick search and didn't see this topic isolated into one thread, if it is and I missed it, my apologies.

So who do you guys and gals like most on YouTube? I enjoy Gary Huston very much, just everything about him and his work, the nonchalant way of going about things yet at the same time extremely well thought out in an instant... Brilliant. I've enjoyed some of Chandler Dickinson for the entertainment value and the "what on earth will he do next?" factor... Denis Frechette is another I enjoy, his "economy of motion" approach seems somewhat unorthodox but after I think about it, it's rather crafty and makes a lot of sense, just a very knowledgeable guy with an interesting twist on some stuff that seems to be status quo elsewhere.

Dirty Smith, Dave Canterbury pathfinder school has a lot of simple projects for outdoors, Denis Frechette from theironworkshop not a lot of video but one of the best Heat treating video I have seen. and Chandler Dickinson 

Yes, the Frechette heat treating video is great. In fact, it was my inspiration for starting this thread.

Watched several Dirty Smith videos since the suggestions on this thread, can't believe I was missing these, they're great! I actually saw that episode of the Mike Rowe show a couple of weeks ago, didn't click right away.
