    Jeremy - From South Africa - Thanks keep up the great content. I am actually a Controls engineer (PLC programmer/systems integrator) and seeing you just excel so quickly means you have passion for this kind of work. your content is really learning me a lot. Especially the videos on magnetism and how motors work even though I attended university back then I did not have a lot of access to the internet. But only now am I realizing that if I had seen your videos during my time at uni I would probably have been teaching my lecturers on the subjects!!! Your stuff is inspiring and teaching the younger generation so much. There is so much value in your content and I am truly happy that you're channel has started gaining momentum! keep up the work we appreciate you and your family!

    Jeremy, you have made my day as an automotive tech. Why? Because the controls and stepper motors used in a bra I like GM have seen little change and I want to include their hardware, software and stepper motor system into my 1967 C10 truck. The HVAC system has several requirements to have some stepper motors simply move all of the way open, then all of the way closed. Others like heat, need increments of movement to control temperature with heat. One moves a door blocking air flow thru the heater core while opening the left lower heater vent door open more for that warm cozy feeling. If I am on the other side dressed for cold weather, I don’t need it open that far. Instead of stepper motors, they are simple dc motors geared to the door and a potentiometer for feedback. This was mention and must be part of robotics. Not optical or pulse from a magnetic sensor and tone ring but a simple pot. 5Vdc to feedback and 12Vdc to the motor. I will have to watch more!

    You sound like a self-taught electrical & mechanical engineer.
    I'm retired now, but as a young man, took a 27 month electronics course. That, plus years of experience, got me to my final career as $6+figure Electronics Technology (working) department head. 35 years ago, before Windows, I taught myself to write "BASIC" computer code and PLC ladder logic, back when PLC hardware was rack mounted (as opposed to fitting on a DIN rail) With several electro-mechanical inventions to my name, I sure wish Arduino (and CZcams) had been around when I was working. I've just recently started playing around with Arduino and tiny PLCs as a hobby. I have enjoyed all of your videos about how you built your own multi-craft shop machines.
    Keep up the great work and making videos. Thank you for all your outstanding content.
