[@deebernaers137]

@BillMakingStuff actually, I think I will. Putting it on my to do list. Your specific sense of humour mixed with the playfulness of your builds, story telling and editing never fails to lift my spirits. Like a matured version of old crafting programs on television, similar to Crafsman, but very much your own thing.

[@turbonerd6552]

Just keep being Bill. That's what a tune in for 😂 that said do whatever I will still watch it

[@RotnDot]

Comment for the algorithm: yeah, I'm gonna keep watching no matter what too. I just like the combination of creativity and dry humour. Please don't change.

[@zoldu]

Same same

[@Oldrumpty]

Shocked cat face thumbnails for the algorithm!! That's about as much as my sleep-deprived brain can muster.

[@malcy9772]

gotta find that balance between appeasing the algorithm and doing what you want and having fun.

[@lostvisitor]

Forget the algorithm. If things get tuff you can stand out side Hobby World with a sign - "Will craft for beads"

[@Snowymae]

Well said

[@Squidthor2]

I will watch literally no matter what you're making. Its the love for the game and creativity that keep me coming back

[@BJLove8]

Man, I love your storytelling. Boring time with Bill is the best.

[@markusvurrgh4549]

I most enjoy this channel for its overall unique and fun personality, Bill. The builds, the lore, the new games, your ongoing struggles with Cat; all of these elements keep me watching every episode. I wouldn’t change anything, I just hope you keep doing what you enjoy doing.

[@bigbird2880]

Don't jump on trends. I watch you because of the niche stuff that you produce. Just keep making the wonderful videos you already make ❤

[@lgpotter2410]

BIll dont get discouraged! Your video was at the top of my feed and i will just watch whatever you post since i honestly just love your whole attitude and you always inspire me to create something myself. (I also love your editing style)

[@CookieCruncha95]

You could always make stuff that RIFFS ON the trends - and if it helps expands the lore of the characters and worlds you're creating, you're still being consistent

[@Roadkill663]

If there's ever a Bill Making Stuff video of you wet blending on a space marine I'm peeling this super glue off my fingers and quitting!

[@shadfagerland8605]

I really enjoy your idiosyncratic style. When you ask should you branch out and try something you think might be more popular: what are you thinking of changing exactly? If it’s popular but still fun and unique in the way your videos have always been, then yes. If it becomes lame, then no.

[@1devilfox]

Its because of your 'weird videos' I've made my first models, and some terrain that I'm actually proud of. I'm makeing a large quadrapedal tuna can based robot with a turning head and all. Your 'weird' is wonderful Bill. And I look forward to it every time you post, whatever it ends up being.

[@garybuettner7920]

I’m torn. One of my favorite things about this channel is that everything you make, no matter if it’s a podracer, a tonk, or a scab, all tie back to the Gutterlands, BUT I’d love to see your channel stick around and grow into whatever it is you want it to be. You’re easily in my top 2-3 craft channels, and I’d hate to see you lose subscribers trying to court a bigger audience. You got to do what you need to do.

[@fruitlessfood]

cat needs a santa hat. (Shh dont tell Bill cat ill get you sardines)

[@brianartillery]

Santa or Satan hat? I prefer the latter.

[@xmobile.]

8:32 For real. If y'all can avoid cutting a can, do it. I was aware of how sharp they are (like a razor blade), yet stuck my finger inside the sip hole of a soda can that i had cut around, to lift the top off.. well, SLICE! Straight through muscle, vein, tendon, nerve, right to the bone all in a split second. I had to have it stitched up and couldn't feel anything for 4 months (thought feeling was gone forever, but thankfully the nerves eventually re-grew.) I don't mess with cans any more for any reason.

[@majyek]

I don't know, what do you mean by being more trendy. If by that you mean making stuff like other crafting channels i.e. foam/resin, resin/foam or “I just made it from scratch by using my 3D printer” then no, I don't think that you should. I love your original ideas, and they are easy to reproduce with stuff that I already hoarded. Last time I made those desert rocks from one of your videos. One of the pieces even has an arch connecting two rocks. :D

[@Radioboq]

Given how much my kids love sardines, I have enough material to have an armada ... Keep the lights on, as long as you use EVA foam and rivets I'll be watching!

[@Werewolflim235]

Please keep being you and don't change even just for the YT algorithm!

[@traciakierman1]

The punch you used is a pattern notcher. It's used to mark sewing patterns. Great video as usual. My son and I love watching you build! I think you should build what you love. Otherwise you'll burn out. I love the weird stuff.

[@WarChimp]

I love that you channel is unique and everything has your own style in the builds. A lot of what you build can be tweaked for other games and worlds, so just mention Warhammer in your tags and thumbnail, that should do the trick 😂.

[@bonnieharris4538]

That's so cute

[@bonnieharris4538]

I really like your channel on first impression. You make me laugh

[@doovstoover9703]

Keep making the things you want to make Bill, that's what makes your channel so great! There's no joy to be found in chasing trends.

[@mikestofmikes]

If it’s any consolation, you popped up in my algorithm just in the last few weeks. Not sure how I’ve missed out for so long, but your delivery/style/subject matter check all the boxes of the KZbin channel I knew I was looking for but couldn’t describe. I’ve since worked through all your playlists and joined the Patreon. Keep doing what you’re doing, and if your gut tells you to chase a new direction, I’m sure we’ll all be here cheering on the adventure.

[@MrScotchcarb]

I don't know if you've ever had this idea or if anyone has ever suggested it, but I would absolutely pay money for a physical published copy of an artbook of all the drawings and paintings from your sketchbook. A nice little coffee table type book with pages big enough that you could have a full page of sketches at the original size inset onto a page, with the backstory/explanation for that page with it

[@Brevikesq]

Keep being Bill - ditto what most people are saying - I watch your vids because they're unique

[@Brevikesq]

...and another cracking video, going to check Scabz out 👍

[@ducomaritiem7160]

Every ship, also modern ones, have a lot of rope... I worked some years on an inland tanker as a deckhand and sailor later on. It's all plastic and steel rope, nothing natural...😊

[@50goingon15]

Do not, I repeat DO NOT,make your scabs utilizing Surströmming tins!!

[@JarlThorson]

On making yourself more appealing to the masses…. If you don’t love doing it, I doubt it will be made as well. I personally love your stuff as is.

[@excruciatingsleep]

Fun fact: the plastic bit you used for the bottom of the anchor is a stitch marker for crochet & knitting! Brought to you by my having far too many of them.

[@sleepingninjaquiettime]

Whats the name of the boat, Bill? Its bad luck to take a voyage in an unamed vessel. Nevermind. Awesome job!

[@dacedebeer2697]

The Scab night light will make a fine addition to your son's bedside table. The fact that it will atmospherically light up the biomechanical monstrosities placed there previously should certainly help soothe him to sleep.

[@Nooneslama]

Seeing the pearls being added made me genuinely smile

[@kiplittle]

Both, Bill. Build both, Bill.

[@jencrosby6065]

I love your weird stuff - I don’t even know what “trendy” stuff is. But you have to make a living … and I’m sure whatever you do, it will have that Bill Making Stuff flavour.

[@MrScotchcarb]

I think making weird stuff that isn't necessarily related to whatever's 'trending' would be cool. Stuff that's 'algorithm friendly' but not trend chasing. So for instance using the techniques you use for bead bots to make a miniature inspired by a Xenomorph and Starship Troopers Bug hybrid, or Junk-Robocop.

[@Garfunkels_Funky_Uncle]

That's the coziest sentient boat I've ever seen!

[@LeonardoBarbosa-s9e]

Bill, Keep making stuff you enjoy making. Don't push yourself into making something you're not happy with, just to satisfy a few more views. In short-term it could be good, but at long-term you would get a burn-out i guess. It's amazing the way you do it already.

[@Colganology]

To hell with trends. Be Bill. Bill making stuff.

[@juliebradley]

A beautiful vessel and great cozy story 🥰☕️

[@BillMakingStuff]

Thank you! 🤗

[@SweenyMarc]

Finally, a good use for tinned sardines!

[@peachesthesordid8619]

I prefer kippers

[@robertschnobert9090]

I only eat tinned tuna. The rest of the tinned fish is not my thing 🌈 ​@@peachesthesordid8619

[@joshuamoney628]

Wut about mackerel???

[@timparks9833]

I’ve found eating them is a good use of

[@GarmrsBarking]

what about dolphins... or i mean tuna... yeah definitely it's only tuna for sure...

[@odysseasmorgan2218]

Peronally i love all of the “wierd stuff”. Love the asthetic, love the vibes. If you want to go for broader appeal, thats cool, but you are currently my favorite crafter youtuber because of the distinct vibe of your “wierd stuff”. That said, whichever way you decide to go, im sure I’ll keep watching reguardless.

[@bbondsie2]

The non-apeal to the masses is why this appeals to me. There are such few creators that dive into what the creators mey mind really looks like and I feel as though you do quite a bit to make pretty fun content. My vote is keep on keeping on with your current formula and maybe make some stuff like this but that is in a subject that appeals to a wider audience. AKA the look and feel of the channel is great and I love it even though I don't play many of the games you make stuff for.

[@Iron_1224]

I say stay true to the weird, Bill. Being authentic is such a rare traits these days, and it shows in your videos. Folks will come, I share your vids with most of my buds and they love ya. You'll keep growing

[@daracpeters8843]

The little spikey things on the top of the chimney are part of the spark arrestor setup, it allowed cool air to mix with the exhaust and dampen any sparks so they wouldnt float off and land on flammable things

[@TrentonWitkop]

Keep making what you like! How do you keep the endless supply of bits and baubles and junk all organized without going crazy? - i had good intentions with my horde of plastic treasure....but now i just have tons of little boxes filled with little bits.

[@SimeonCogswell]

I don't want you to hop on trends, I like your channel the way you've made it. But you do what makes you happiest.

[@bierrepunk]

As long that your videos have a Bill twist, I’m all for it ! I would watch you drench a GW model in crustard and read the horrified comments.

[@NuSocTheKelDor]

Another creator on here gave some advice to others trying to make it on KZbin. He says that for every video you do to keep the lights on and grow your channel, reward yourself with a video you always wanted to do that may only appeal to a fraction of your audience.

[@samsunggalaxy3442]

Use the tin upside down saves having to cut a hole for the batteries. Looks great 👍🏻

[@brianartillery]

I love tinned fish, especially sardines -I eat about three tins a week. If you were wondering, they are cooked - it's part of the canning process, so they are perfectly good to eat straight out of the tin. You could get something in a smaller tin, like anchovies, and use that tin to make something like a fast patrol boat. Just an idea. Pole at the front of a boat? That's the Bowsprit.

[@ransapar2259]

I watch for your creativity combined with the scratch bashing, as long as you've got those I'll always watch

[@Stray_GM]

I think you should make the Bill Bot. An entire life size Bill so Cat can actually have an owner that loves him.

[@cerisekappes580]

The best use of a sardine can!!! Looks awesome 😊😊😊 Stay doing you!!! ❤😊❤

[@tangent7078]

i cant find stuff like you make basically anywhere else on youtube i love your weird stuff. If you made a few mainstream videos to get more people in on the weird stuff so be it but im sure im not alone in loving your specific art style. All of that was too genuine and earnest i gotta backpedal uhhh i mean. i hate cool art. nailed it.

[@oddsparten13]

I love watching your wacky crafting videos, but 65% if the reason why I watch them is because of you. If you decide to pivot it would be kind of sad but I know myself and others will continue to watch your videos. At the end of the day do what you enjoy and the right people will find you.

[@ducomaritiem7160]

Bill, try make some DIY shorts for kids perhaps let them make Christmas bead bots for in their tree..?❤ Add a how to animate them vid too

[@veraeroes]

this build is adorable and looks so cozy! like many other commenters here, I love the unique “weirdness” of your videos compared to other crafting youtubers, I think it’s truly something special

[@FromtheSoultotheFretboard]

Amazing job, Bill, outstanding work!! The lights hassle was totally worth it, they look great!!

[@oakenhollowgames1031]

Be you and do what you do. I can totally understand the want, or sometimes need, to chase the algorithm to keep the lights on but watching what you come up with is what keeps bringing me back. I like different, I’m sick of the same ol crap being spewed out on the internet. Stay weird.

[@martinwhitmore]

It could be fun to see a Bill Making Stuff take on some trends, whatever they happen to be. Make it rusty and crusty, and watch the new viewers roll in!

[@ZacPensol]

Honestly I would love to see you branch out a bit - not that what you regularly do is in anyway a problem, and not necessarily to appease the algorithm, but because you have such a distinct style that I would like to see it applies to other projects. Maybe some sort of big prop (like, I dunno, a weird mask/helmet, or something) or who knows. What would a chair made by Bill look like? Probably like a bad chair but you get what I mean.

[@timothyritchie5290]

Very much trust you to keep your integrity Bill. You often comment on this. To me that means that you can definitely do more 'trendy' stuff to bring more people into the fantastic stuff you do. Trust what you feel comfortable with and what you think is right to grow the channel. I for one would enjoy your quirky take on more mainstream hobby stuff. Love all the content.

[@christopherclark2673]

Love anything with lighting! Love the weird stuff as you say, but would also enjoy a Ghibli build, or something else from classic Sci-Fi every now and then. I mostly come just to see how you do things! Again we Love Bill being Bill.

[@cheyzus7554]

I am not normal. I love your stuff. Your vids come up on me everytime they're given. Thank you for your excellent content. I have no money so I'm not your wanted customer base. I have boxes of plastic to one day be a giant phoenix. I really like your content. Never stop!.

[@midwinter78]

I really like tinned sardines grilled on toast. Also my cats really want to be my friend when I have them, and they help me clean the tin.

[@kreight007]

I love what you do!! You're a talented and amazing personality. Anything you do is going to be a success. Do what you love, I'll be watching no matter what!!

[@agi2711]

I like your channel just the way it is and the way you are. No need to change it, in my opinion.

[@trikepilot101]

Good to see your sketch book has got its hang time back. About trends: I am not trendy. I can't imagine what you trying to be more trendy would look like. Go ahead, give it a go.

[@showland1999]

Keep on doing what you do, I'll still be here. This was an awesome build. Keep'em coming 👍

[@Random-gn6ew]

I've already went too far, I'll watch whatever you make now...

[@Truewhispers40]

Stay just the way you are Bill...we love you for it. 🎉🎉🎉

[@widgetwolftv6730]

I'd say keep up with the weird stuff but most importantly do what you enjoy doing. A bit of an idea though, you could make an attempt at shorts to draw people in but I have no idea what the conversion rates would be regarding that nor how you'd go about making them appealing

[@InvasionAnimation]

You should make the stuff that you enjoy! Also does anyone want to talk about the bird walking on your roof?

[@MrCytree]

Normally I wouldn't comment but I want to register my increased engagement for the algorithm gods. I find the size of the cannons funny. I am picturing someone trying to wrestle a 4-foot round steel cannonball into the cannon

[@EdwinK-13]

If you quit doing what you love it will cut those who love what you do. As a Patreon I will keep on keeping on with you. Just HOLD FAST!

[@SanTM]

Yeah I wasn't seeing your videos funnily enough. Will go back and watch it all. All very soothing

[@jamesremington8056]

maybe once in a while do a video that you think might grab new viewers, but still do it your way. I don't care if you discuss or build a Warhammer or D&D video once in a while. Just be Bill. At the same time, I have discovered so many indy games because of this show.

[@Brannreven]

Just be Bill and do Bill stuff. Do what you like, and you'll attract those who like what you do!

[@mintpalmer]

Considering I found this channel literally just now, through this video, you're obviously doing something right.

[@CannedFishFiles]

I have a youtube channel, where I review cans of sardines (for eating). Most of my videos are just reviews of single cans. I try to create some kind of hook, but usually no one cares, and they do just ok. Every six months or so, I make one that I know will do well. I call it a "gateway video." These are harder for me to make. Often I re-tread ideas that my faithful viewers are already familiar with, but they tolerate it because I try to fill the videos with funny stuff. Anyway, this is a great video; you're a great producer and editor, and the stuff looks cool too.

[@Kevin-m2x8n]

I think you should keep the weird stuff,Bill its great!

[@Matt-md5yt]

sweet glad you made more cool stuff out of scraps

[@NecromediaNetwork]

Please don't stop doing what you're doing but I fully support "Bill Making SEO Slurry" 😁

[@AizawaA565]

I love the weird stuff !!😊

[@DrMabuse2010]

I don't need pop ups, i check your channel twice a day!

[@ifiwasyouiwouldntbe]

Changing those batteries is going to be rough XD

[@PearlJam2k6]

I like seeing you do something different now and again, it came out really cute i think, especially with the dull lights glowing through. I also hope CAT can get his...her...their? can of sardines for Catsmas. They've been mostly good as i recall, didnt cause too much problems lately.

[@barfjavelin]

Do what you have to do to pay the bills, Bill. I'll always stay subbed to the patreon, binging your content kept me sane when my second kid was born and it was endless hours of night feeds so feel like I'll always owe you for that.

[@PandWanda]

I love your stuff as is, definitely. Taking a break from my world and learning about the Gutterlands and the beadbots and all that has been very relaxing at times. HOWEVER, for channel growth, you do what you gotta do. I'll be here no matter what, so I look forward to whatever content you decide to make in the future!!

[@tessaflores5466]

I, personally, love the weird stuff and just the whole vibe of your videos, so I'd say don't change a thing but if you feel it's necessary for your channel to grow and that's the goal you're working towards, I wouldn't stop watching your videos.

[@diyfireking]

So beautiful piece of work. How awesome 😍😍

[@AndrewKolb101]

you are the only one watch make stuff like this anymore, most channels are like 'anyone can do this this budget craft Just use your $10k laser cutter, and CnC engraver and get your maid to clean up.'

[@ashtonhunter8640]

WEIRD STUFF! WEIRD STUFF! but seriously dude keep doing what you're doing! being you is what got me watching and I've been telling folks to check you out!

[@RupertFoulmouth]

The boat is adorable. I must confess I thought it would have been more organic like a meaty. Nonetheless, wonderful video as always.

[@KamikiVector]

If there's one thing about bill that I know it's that you can bring out the creativity in the most mundane of things. I guess you can appease the algorithm by doing trendy stuff but will the bill making stuff signiture creativity and charm.

[@ErikDavisHeim]

Very cool mini as always! I like that you were able to fit the lore into Gutterlands and Scabz simultaneously. Maybe try click bait thumbnails and titles, but keep doing the builds and videos exactly how you want to do them?

[@mikevincent8728]

What a delightful build (Billd?) Top notch, as always. My tuppence-worth regarding your conversation starter... responding to your audience/market/platform shouldn't be a point of criticism. I love watching you craft, and of course the witty repartee. I wasn't sure about Bill's Bits and junk hunts when they first cropped up, but ended up really enjoying them! People don't know what they want... just try stuff and see what works. Your engaging presentation is your USP, with your crafting aesthetic and skill an enjoyable bonus, if we're being super cold and analytical about videos and views. Whatever you decide to do, I'm sure I'll enjoy it :)

[@danconnolly504]

Love everything you make, Bill. As long as you're enjoying it I'm sure I will too.

[@ScaleTrainStation]

Buying a tin of sardines and then eating them to use the tin was brilliant! Your next game should have pieces made from empty pizza boxes and beer cans, along the same lines.

[@johnnyspeed4623]

This is the first video I have seen pop up from you in a WHILE. 🤔 It's the content I like from you.
