It's amazing what he's done in terms of the robotics, and the presentation of it to the viewer. I'm amazed at the quality of cinematography on the internet these days.

The implications of the tools we now make available for use in our own personal workshops are still being discovered, and will be for some time.

Feels like the golden age of DIY engineering
I agree 1000%, which is why I find the whole “the internet sucks now” movement really disheartening. There are huge upsides to a network this large.
DIY and "the Internet" (the web?) have fairly little overlap, aside from learning resources existing. Those learning resources could just as well exist, and probably better or more, in a healthier web. I don't think contrasting the 2 things is making much sense.
As someone who workedon projects, written documentation(even notes) let alone video format is even more time consuming than the work itself. It's extremely beneficial for long projects and continuation, but really tedious. Kudos to all the applied tech youtubers out there.
