Friends:
Many of you were at my livestream last week where I broke a wooden plane in half. The plane itself is interesting, so I made a whole video about it. Stay tuned to the end for a special message just for my Patrons.
This is also my last full video of 2024. It's been a heck of a year, and I'm very eager to go on Winter Break. While I won't be posting full videos here, we have archived enough shorts to last well into the new year and they'll be coming out (almost daily) on YouTube.
I feel like I say this every year, so I'll keep it short: thank you. This is the end of my 8th year on YouTube and it's now been 6 years since I became a full time creator. None of it would have happened without all of you. The financial support is huge and let's me ignore the (increasingly pushy) sponsors who email me every single day. We've built a great community here and now we also have the Tool Trader platform where we can exchange the tools that make our passion possible. None of it would be possible without your willingness to try new things and help me test new ideas. Patrons gave Tool Trader a much needed boost and gave me necessary feedback so it could be improved.
You can be sure that my team and I will work hard to deserve your support in the new year and beyond. Happy and Healthy Holidays to you and your families. We'll be back in the second half of January.
