Any/all suggestions will be appreciated.

Welcome

Looks like you are off to a good start with a good bit of videos. You just need to get more viewers and subscribers.

One thing I will say though is make compilation videos maybe 10 minutes long. Instead of tons of very short videos

Dont take it negatively. It wasnt meant that way

Edit
Please dont put any music over any videos of vehicles running or driving. I wish nobody would do that. It ruins the video

When i started out, i was afraid to edit anything so i would just post the short clips i had taken. Now, going forward, i will make actual videos out of what footage i take. I am learning as i go.

I would say to come across as a friend talking to a friend not as a college professor teaching a class. Talk real and don’t use big words you wouldn’t use in daily conversation. Good luck!

I agree. Dont try to be super funny or sound super smart.

Pay attention to lighting.

If you make a mistake you dont have to edit every little thing out of the video. Super choppy videos drive me nuts.

I watch alot of youtube and the number one thing that drive me nuts is solo youtubers saying "we" "us" and "our". If you are rebuilding an axle by yourself then there is no we or us. An example would be a person alone recording themself in the backyard "we have a big pumpkin we are going to shoot with our new shotgun and see what kind of damage it does for us"

Sorry for the rant

lol sorry for the choppiness. I say um a lot and my wife insists on taking them out.
i don't think i say we/us etc but honestly i get nervous while talking so i might say weird things.
i will work on talking more smoothly. I sound like a hick when i hear myself talk. Lol so i don't watch my video after editing it.
i appreciate all the advice.

i am an engineer, so i might use words that normal people don't use, without knowing it. I will try to sound friendlier rather than a teacher. Thank you for your input.
