    Hey, Uncle Knackers! Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
    As a professional patternmaker, I can tell you, these tips are good as gold 👌
    My favourite is the last one. Be proud of your work, hobbyists! Every time you tackle a project, you achieve so much more than all the others who have no idea how to get things done.
    A pro tip for the circular saw: If you have very delicate surfaces that tend to tear out, clamp a fence to guide your machine. Then make a double cut. First one is very shallow, just cutting 1mm into your surface without tearing. Then you can cut all the way through. You should be fine 🙂

    • @diyforknuckleheads

      @André Bartels I can't agree more. I'm also in the trade here in the UK and have not yet seen a tip that is bad or promotes unsafe working on any of the videos I have watched.. Follow the advise here and you won't go far wrong.

      @@diyforknuckleheadsJust finished watching it, you did not disappoint me. Many useful tips. Good Dad joke! There are some woodworkers who say power tools take all the skill out of woodworking. That is just so wrong! As you said (paraphrased), power tools allow things to go wrong much faster. Every time we get a new tool we have to learn new skills to use that tool. Such is the joy (and frustration) of the wonderful journey of making things out of wood. And maybe a bit of metal here and there. Or maybe we need to add some resin. And maybe the best solution for a particular problem is to 3D print it. Or maybe ..... endless possibilities. Let's all go out and make stuff and resist the urge to point out the imperfections that no-one else would have noticed. Above all, let's just enjoy the process (journey) of trying to make stuff. (And share what we learn along the way, especially the bespoke features).

      @@rodoherty1 one other channel that I watch without fail is Stumpy Nubs. As for others, I tend to watch channels from people I can relate to. Some people have gotten too big and their videos are commercials disguised as woodworking videos. I understand why and I respect that but I find myself, more and more, watching channels with just a few hundred subscribers, with the exception of Uncle Knackers and Stumpy Nubs. I find them very informative and entertaining at the same time. Never a waste of my time.

    Since finding your channel, I have made:
    A sturdy workbench.
    A sturdy bed.
    Bedside tables.
    Wooden boxes.
    Shoe rack.
    Hoisted clothes airer and few other small projects.
    All made with pallet wood/ scrap.
    I also just finished fitting out both bedroom wardrobes (not using scrap).
    All this in under two years while working full time.
    It’s a real sense of achievement when you use something you made with your own two hands.
    Your channel has been the main inspiration for all my projects.
    I’m thankful to you for the helpful tips and the dad jokes.

    I clicked on this when I saw the photo of the nail through your "bandaged finger" cringing, because admittedly, I put a brad nail 1/4th of an inch into my finger just ahead of the knuckle at the tip of my index finger almost a month ago now.
    It was a stark reminder to watch what I was doing if I didn't like getting bit like that.

    It's good to know that I am not the only one who loves your videos. This one was only posted today, and already over 7,000 views! Congratulation on having your opinions and tips respected. Your tips are great for beginners and pros alike. One common mistake I found myself making when I started woodworking was buying things that I thought I just had to have.Some of those tools and accessories never got used, and are just collecting dust. There are even some great You Tube videos regarding this subject. Cheers!

It just occurred to me watching your outdoor sofa video that I didnt understand why use the nail gun instead of screws or why use a bolt when you did.
