The YouTube Maker Blues

This is my love letter to the YouTube maker community. As I get older, I’m starting to enjoy working more with my hands on shop tools than on a keyboard. My YouTube channel is full of Photoshop and Illustrator tutorials, but that’s not reflective of who I am anymore. I’m more than just a tutorial guy. I’m inspired by designers, artists, woodworkers, machinists, hobbyists, prop makers, and a completely random assortment of others.

Over the past five years or so, I have immensely enjoyed watching videos from hundreds of makers, but here are a few of my favorites. If you’re not aware of them, check them out and subscribe to their channels!
