I would like, if you would all allow, to request you to post links to favorite youtube tutorials you have seen that really get to the heart of the particular subject and give the most accurate information; accuracy of information is key, but a good "jargon free" presentation is important too.
If you wish to shy away from certain topics that are covered by dvd's available by members, that is understandable, which still leaves a whole gamut of topics that people could look at to get a better understanding of it.
EDIT: Any topic can be covered that relates to working with wood, as there are many places where crossover occurs in techniques, and when you come to consider it - there aren't as many core subjects as we might first think, but vastly more personal preferences on how that technique is applied, and that's where the water gets muddied, although occasionally great "outside the box" applications are found.
The reason I ask is pretty obvious; there seem to be so many, the more I watch sometimes the more muddled I become on certain topics, and with woodworking classes now almost a bygone thing in many places (with respect to Peter Sefton and others) it would be great to have a section or sticky with a "go to" selection to watch.
If you would indulge me, it would be good if there was a brief description of what's being highlighted, and what in particular stands out in this tutorial over some others. Yes even including sharpening and the various forms, as it's the preference of the user and technique, not the teacher, so keep any "mine's better than yours" for another thread if possible - keep it civil gentlemen
I have seen some threads that people have posted for this kind of reason, (and hopefully those people can hunt them down and put them here too if moderators will allow), but no single thread with many of them in, in the same way most of the late Polish Niki's ideas were compiled together.
