-Quint- Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 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.

Rashelle Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Brian Brazeal, Mark Aspery, ABANA videos, Alec Steele along with others of Brian's students. Brent Bailey. Those are what I can think of offhand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaiver Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 I've been watching dirty Smith lately. He's entertaining and gives some good info. And he seems like a nice enough fellow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Quint- Posted October 16, 2015 Author Share Posted October 16, 2015 Yes, I forgot to mention Bailey, impressive to watch, that guy doesn't mess around! I've seen the name Alec Steele all over the place but haven't watched yet.I'll definitely check out the others, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VaughnT Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Eichschmiede has some really nice videos. Don't understand a lick of the jargon, but he does a lot of nice work with those chisels he has. Really nice to see traditional hardware being built and then installed on a traditional wagon. https://www.youtube.com/user/elchschmiede/videos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
