Big News!
Added 2023-09-14 14:00:06 +0000 UTCA kind of big thing happened these last couple weeks and our little family is now one member larger! So we're taking a short break to enjoy (and adjust to) our new little one.
I'm planning to have some form of Patron exclusive content in a couple weeks but until then take a gander at some of these other creators I've been watching lately (that you maybe haven't heard of). Feel free to comment some of your own!
Bobby Duke Arts - If you don't laugh I'll give you a dollar.
FortNine - Motorcycles, science and humor. Hard to beat
Beau Miles - Eccentric Aussie goes off the beaten path.
Tom Stanton - Excellent engineering + Experimental RC Aircraft
Alec Steele & Will Stelter - Blacksmithing. Damascus. You know the deal
JBV Creative - Clever Engineering and 3D printing
Not An Engineer - If "I did a thing" made a CNC machine
Breaking Taps - Seriously cool technical look at machining and material science
Project Air - Fun RC projects.
Driving 4 Answers - Everything you could want to know about engines.

2023-12-11 11:06:16 +0000 UTCYou are very kind π thanks, man! I'm curious though where you are seeing her content. Pretty much everything was pulled down when we decided to back away from her channel.
Brandon Sander
2023-09-28 01:41:32 +0000 UTCThanks!
Brandon Sander
2023-09-28 01:27:04 +0000 UTCIt's actually not around anymore. We ended up pulling all her content when we made the decision because it was just getting too invasive in our lives. But yes absolutely patreon was a big help for her channel as well as this one!
Brandon Sander
2023-09-28 01:26:58 +0000 UTCThank you Pierre! And very wise perspective. We're soaking it up as much as we can π

2023-09-28 01:23:45 +0000 UTCBecame a member today to find this post. Congratulations! We just dropped of our first and only son for his first year of post secondary studies. Effectively making us empty nesters, does not seem that long ago that we started building that nest. Take all the time you can. The hours will drag on but the years evaporate!

2023-09-19 03:03:30 +0000 UTCOk but what was your wife's youtube channel before yours? Asking after watching the Q&A video. My partner is a youtuber presently and does ok at it but isn't famous or anything. Patreon is a life saver for her.

2023-09-16 14:42:25 +0000 UTCThat is absolutely amazing. Funny thing is, I just watched your latest Q&A video, and you mentioned your wife had a successful YouTube channel. I am currently watching her content and can't get enough. I came onto patreon to snag a few drawings I haven't got yet from you (while having my son on my lap) and was thinking, These two are just amazing and exactly what I hope my fiance and I continue to have and I wonder when they will start a family. Well, you answered that! Congratulations sir. It is absolutely the best part of life, and you have an awesome partner to do it with! I seriously can't get enough of her content. As usual i'm late to most of these parties, but her recent-ish video about her stance on the way the world is and BLM just hooked me. Finally someone said what we all know we are all thinking, and of course it's my favorite machinist's wife! Congratulations again Brandon!

James Riordan
2023-09-14 18:25:08 +0000 UTCCongratulations. Make sure the wee one gets a full set of eye and ear protection! (And hopefully, the parents will get at least some sleep in the next 6 months.)

Jeff Loffert
2023-09-14 14:59:18 +0000 UTCCongrats to you and Mrs Brandon. Enjoy this time getting to know the next owner of your grandfather's machine shop. I stumbled across Not an engineer a little while ago, great viewing. Hope he continues with more videos now he's built the machine.
Adam Wesley-August
2023-09-14 14:56:29 +0000 UTCCongrats! Top tip that I got from a friend when I had my daughter: Get one of the diaper cream spatulas. Trust me, you will need it...
Josh Goldshlag
2023-09-14 14:47:41 +0000 UTCAlso, since you asked, Blondihacks is making a scale steam locomotive (and watching her build the pressure vessel was a treat!) and Hyperspace Pirate is building an atmospheric nitrogen condenser. For electronics, Ben Eater has been building a full computer on a breadboard. Highly recommend all three.
Michael Faragher
2023-09-14 14:25:01 +0000 UTCCongratulations! I guess that's a good enough reason. :D It's nice to know this shop could potentially serve yet another generation.
