Thanks for the support everyone! I don't think I've ever had a video that's been talked about so much on various media outlets. 😊 Quite the splash!

I had a dream last night that I made some modifications to my submersible pc - but when testing, it filled with water and I had to rush around trying to find something to flush it with but to no avail. 😅 Then I woke up so I don't know if it was a happy ending.

To produce just one minute of content for my channel it takes on average 10 hours. 10 hours per minute of produced video content. Dedication 👊

The 'smart' OS on my TV isn't very usable as the interface is so slow and laggy. Are there any fully featured plug-in external options that could replace it?

Made a little moss garden this morning ^^, try one yourself, it's fun! You just need a cheap plastic tray with a layer of pebbles on the bottom, some soil, and then you can pick and choose whatever mosses you can find outside. Enjoy!

Just had an email from YouTube saying that I'm no longer going to be a 'verified' channel! Going to appeal but it could be very bad if they don't reinstate it - I guess 1.5m subscribers and a very specific viewer and channel identity isn't good enough for them :( @YTCreators

I've been doing the same build format in my videos for a while - are there any changes you would like to see in how I produce my content? I'd like to introduce something new, but presently I can't think of what and how, intergrated to benefit the videos in a meaningful way.

So, I'm pretty depressed at the moment. The project I've been working on all this time is finally complete, and so is the edit. Was about to render it... BUT... the hard drive died. Not joking. 5 months of work is now in the hands of a data recovery company. Need cheering up.

Apparently my last video is only showing up at 240p for some viewers? 🤔 Can you guys quickly check if it's 4k or stuck at 240p? If the latter, what country are you in? I don't know if I can do anything about it but it's pretty annoying piped.video/he6xyl_MHXY

Thinking about making a second channel for less 'primary' projects, or behind the scenes content / modifications. 'Extra' videos basically... what should I call it? DIY Perks 2 seems a bit uninspired.

Viewer survey! My last video didn't do particularly well. If you saw the thumbnail, but didn't click, was it just a bit of a boring idea? Or did you just never see it?

I'm having a hard time finding a compact voltage step down board that's small enough for my next project. It needs to be flat (sub 10mm) and powerful enough to deliver 250w converting 15v to 12v. Any suggestions??? 🫤

Been recording the past two days of footage directly onto an SSD, but it's somehow now corrupted. Files play fine on the recording device (ninja v) but plugging the SSD into my PC results in a request to format the drive. Anyone know how I can get these .mov files back?

It's rather annoying. For those reading, lets say a random app costs £10. The gov gets £2 (VAT), Apple gets £3, and the developer gets the remaining £5. This £5 then gets taxed again as either corporation tax or income tax at varying rates depening on the employee. Crazy.
