      ​@@WoodnessGoodnessI second this. Your editing is top notch. The way you skip time in simple functions you do like cutting a board or putting up fascia or whatever makes it so it's entertaining but not so real time that it's monotonous to watch the same thing. Commentary is great.
      Selfishly, i'd like to see more frequent videos. Glad you seem to be feeling better. And while they are probably actually already in by now, good luck with handling and installing those windows.
      After that you gotta get siding on the other side and front. I saw that light coming though the wall which reminded that other side isn't done yet. I assume with the light it isn't even tyvek'd yet

    The length of the video you currently have is perfect for us. Every weekend we wake up we make breakfast and we sit down and watch your video and it’s the perfect length for a nice lazy breakfast on a weekend morning. They could be shorter and of course they could be longer but honestly, I don’t know if I would go longer than 40 minutes. Also, I have 30 days of pay time off and don’t mind taking a few to drive down from New York and help out with the windows if you need an extra set of limbs. My partner would get a kick out of it.

    TWO videos a week?! OMG! Twice the goodness of Woodness Goodness?! All my dreams are coming true!!
    I like the length of the videos, I could watch you longer. 45 mins, an hour at a time.... There are some creators putting out 3, close to 4 hour long vids. It takes me days to watch it all, in bits and pieces. Sometimes, I don't finish watching.

    Graham, Don't discount your ability to make good content. You are one of the best. As long as you don't deviate from your current techniques, take the length past 40 minutes. Just not too much longer. I may agree with 80 to 90 percent of your design and engineering choices, but 100 percent of your video production. May wife and always look forward to making a pot coffee and watching you together.

  • @undegonedotorg
    @undegonedotorg Місяць тому +1

    The splotchiness in the stain on your front door is probably from the factory glue. When they glue the panels together there is residue that doesn't get cleaned up/sanded off enough at the factory, and it causes your stain to look like that. Whenever I am dealing with a panel door that is solid wood I always lightly sand it first, especially around the panel joints to avoid this.

    Holy Woodness Imanelectricianness baby!!!! I had to work overtime on this Saturday and while my guys were doing electrical work, I was sitting in my office watching you do electrical work lol. I was quite entertained and the 40 minutes went by extremely quick because I enjoyed watching you be a semi professional amateur Electrician. I have to say that door looks amazing and the finish is just right and that solar panel Array is amazing the way it adjusts to the sun. When you get fully finished, you should consider getting a winter turbine so that you get power generating day and night. The length of the video is never a problem. The only problem is when you decide to sing lol. That is due to the fact that you couldn’t carry a tune unless it jumped up on your back and hung on.😂😂😂 keep getting after it brother and thanks for entertaining us. Everything looks amazing.

    Although I watch them all, I prefer videos that are not more than 30 minutes in length. I watch your vids almost as soon as I get a notification that a new one has been posted, but since I'm probably procrastinating from doing something I should be doing to watch your video, guilt sets in if I'm going to spend more than 30 minutes procrastinating. Love the show. If you go to 40, you won't lose me.

    Great videos. I would like to suggest that when you run the power perminately to the house for the solar, put wire in pvc.
    Also trim the trees down that are in front of the panels. In Summer they block your charging. ( Just an fyi)

    Black gutters would look awesome... And it will go with anything. If you don't like it, paint it, but I'm sure you will like it. As for length of videos? Ask the well watched UA-camrs. The 'movies' get the best interest, unless you are doing a daily (like the Pethericks, or Escape to Rural France for example). But your time will dictate the answer in the end. Hope you can reach a happy medium that suits us all.🙂
