Excellent video. Excellent narrator. Highest recommendation.
This was well produced and contained good information for a beginner. Don't expect a ton of detail as the topics are covered quickly, but well worth viewing.
very good information, layed out in an interesting and entertaining manner.
This was a bit light, and basic, but as always from this machinist, clear, concise, well-explained, and with a splash of humor from time to time to lighten the load. Enjoyable as well as informative.
