Just catching up here. Terrific thread, especially appreciate when FOGgers post not just links, but descriptions of content and quality of video. Having looked up lots of stuff to solve specific problems, the great majority of people who post “fix-it” videos have abysmal video and audio quality, to the point of being unwatchable. So I really appreciate semi-pro or better technical quality, among whom I would include Dave Stanton and Peter Parfitt.
While I appreciate humor, more straightforward demonstrations of processes ranks highest. I would put Festool’s Brent Shiveley near the top for that.
I think I’m going to check out some of the German and French YT videos to brush up on my language skills (of a half century ago!).
