The chisel chuck to his hand at 3:27 Went straight over my head. What a fine skilled chap you are.

Hi, I'm adding my support and would appreciate yours. Please don't use the dreaded s-word. KZbin is coming down hard and spamifying them. They may also deprecate the addition by making it not count -- the addition remains but is removed from your totals! I lost over 130 on Saturday, so please do be careful. Also, it's a good idea to go slowly, watch a minute or two of someone's video (muted if you wish) before hitting the like and then adding them. We have your back! Best of luck! 'I am a creator'!

Thanks for the support and tips. On the positive side, I've found a lot more interesting channels to support that I didn't realise had existed so pleased to give my support to them. :) You have a lot of interesting tech and software videos so looking forward to checking those out! Definitely do more videos on classic camera equipment!

[@CoriolisAffectment]

Thanks so much...and I intend to!
