[@davidt01]

The reason I love these videos are: 1) They are clearly explained, with excellent animations, to say nothing of the 3D components. 2) You don't leave anything out. When the video is over you know exactly how it works, with no boxes/mechanisms left unexplained, for those who need a thorough explanation. Even if you forget how it works in the future, and just take it for granted that it does, it's always nice to remember that you knew how it worked at one time, so you know it's not "magic".

[@b.s.3645]

Ive been taking a look at his upload dates and video lengths and as far as I can see he needs a whole month for each 7½ minutes of his video (2 months for 15 minutes etc). This means he needs around 4 days in average for each minute of content he produces. (I would guess he works around an hour daily but relaxed, his videos look very passionate, so I think he has a huge fun making them every day, almost like a video game) All this information is just my guess based on analysing his situation and combining it with my own experience throughout life

[@suncrafterspielt9479]

[@vyrrumdrakus8028]

Lol thanks man! You saved me! I pulled the strings on the blinds in my moms house and the lock part was rusty and locked up at the top. My mom yelled for 5 mins, and was really mad saying I needed to buy her a new one now, I watched this video. Figured out the rusty lock part was preventing the blinds from going back down. Shoved my pocket knife in there and BAM the blinds fell down. Took 3 mins to find the solution and fix the issue. Thanks a bunch lol.
