Well, here it is! The first video in the new, more documentarian series.
Oh, and introducing? Well, actually, there's an introductory video I've also shot and uploaded for the main channe...

Hi! Three weeks later, here's my video:

I've made a terrible mistake and I need to correct it. Also there's just a lot more we've discovered together. So strap in because it's time to go on and on and on about dishwashers!

Let's do something together!
September's kinda throwing me off, if I'm honest. I've been working and re-working the dishwasher update script and I've not been very happy with its progress...
2021-09-11 17:33:37 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone,
Usually I like to have a new video for you at the end of the month, and although I had a decent head start on one of those “simple” videos it promptly cascaded into a larger project. I know, you all are utterly shocked at the news.
I’m taking a bit of a break rig...

I'm seeing an indication that there's a new video. Sifting through the signals leads you there. Blinker!
This is fresh off the upload, so I don't even have the description ready, and ther...

It's a long one. It's rambly. There's an entirely-too-loud squeaky chair. But it's a story that I've wanted to tell for a long time, and I finally had an opportunity to tell it from the very place that anchors it.

Hello! I have no idea right now what I'm gonna title this one or what the thumbnail will look like. That's to be determined. But this is that video I mentioned in the last update. I figured it would be good to take a short break from lanterns (plus I've been doing a lot of experimentation o...

I have a quick teaser here for you! Now before you get too excited, this video isn't anywhere near complete. I needed to get these shots for two reasons: 1) I needed to make sure this would actually work and 2) I wouldn't have access to the red car for very long.
Greetings!
I've done it! I've gotten it out by the end of the month! But, there's been a development. This isn't part The Conclusion, it's part 2! We've haven't even gotten to the Coleman lanterns yet, but we certainly will!
Hey there!
Here's a simple sneak peek/update/whatever showing that dual fuel lantern I was after. I've never used one of these in my life (or a propane one, for that matter) and I've been pleasantly surprised with how fun they are to use!
But, as you can see here, it's pretty obvious ...

Hello one and all!
I have a tremendously overdue update video for you in which, in addition to explaining why it's been so overdue, I fill you in on the goings on and some upcoming projects.
As usual, it's long and rambly so you definitely don't need to be paying close attention to it...

Howdy, folks!
Remember that Patreon update I made forever ago about these lanterns? Well, I finally made that video! Part of the delay came from a book recommendation I received, and upon reading it, well, it became clear its focus was mainly on the town gas industry. It was a worthwhile re...
2021-06-15 14:57:52 +0000 UTC View PostUgh. Tonight's not my night. I got more than half-way through the captions and my internet crapped out. I thought I had saved a draft before it went completely away but apparently not.
For now, you should have access to the script as pasted-in, but there will be errors and timing won't be g...

That title's probably not staying. But maybe!
I just got back from uploading this. Fun fact! Internet woes are still very much a thing here at TC HQ, so it has now become tradition that I load the finished file onto my phone, drive into town, and park near a cell tower to upload. It's great...

FINAL EDIT: It's been re-uploaded to fix the audio issue. Captions are copied over and ready-to-go!
Top of the evening to you!
I've brought for your enjoyment something of a "classic" episode. There are tangents. There are asides. There are bad jokes! But most importantly, there are ...

Happy Friday! It's time for a new video.
Remember how I said that this was a hectic time and that I wouldn't be able to focus on making videos for a bit? Well, here's the first "this'll be quick and easy" idea that I started working on... more than a week ago. I really just can't help mysel...

UPDATE: It's been re-uploaded with altered audio to make the sibilance less harsh.
Also, captions are done!

I wanted to give you all an update on the next video. It's taking me longer than I had hoped to get started but I'm making some solid progress and hope to have a video out for you within a few days.
But, it's gonna be a two-parter! I'm already past 16 minutes and have just<...

Well, kind of anyway :)
In this video I go through everything that's in the set and tell you a little something about it. I also explain what the deal is with the TVs, which most of you know but hasn't ever been explained to the wider public. Time for that to be unveiled!
Greetings!
In case you weren't aware, the last couple of weeks have been, well, difficult to experience. In a word: rough. My mind has been places I didn't really want it to be, but since today's events have transpired without incident, my brain chemicals are back on their way to a balance ...
