      I think there is always room for videos like this. If you ever run into another artisan maker like this, don't be afraid to use your talent to tell their story, too. Very well done!

    If that was for a school project, I feel sorry for the other students in the class having their work compared to that. Very well done! Really enjoyed the guy's story. Not sure if it made me want to buy a bike, ride a bike, or turn my hobby into a career, but it was inspiring.

    Awesome! Unexpected from this channel but it’s a pro level documentary as far as I can tell.

  • @classydays43
    @classydays43 Před 10 měsíci +1

    That spider/Halloween frame was gorgeous! I hope he keeps it up for many years to come. Brilliant documentary, also, like the camera work and story telling was phenomenal.

  • @sparkysparkytuneman
    @sparkysparkytuneman Před 2 lety +4

    I started the video trying to pay attention to the framing and shot choices, but halfway through I was too caught up in the story and the building to be conscious of the camera work :D Great job!

    To me, it is always such a pleasure to see skilled artists and craftsmen at work. My parents grew up in the 1920s and 1930s and were very poor, so they were a accustomed to building or making things because it was the only way to have anything. I remember my Dad telling me that as a kid he wanted a bike, so he just scrounged around until he found enough parts to build one. Obviously, he wasn’t the professional shown here, but we kids’ bikes were always in good working order. Thanks for sharing this video.

    Old looking shops like that are my favorite place to be. His is a bit too clean and artsy for me, but dope to see another welder making cool stuff. I like seeing that a lot of guys my age are going back to the older way of doing some stuff (like his hand drafting) and keeping alive certain special skills.

    I love bicycles and I'm not young. I like your design because I always thought mountain bikes were too big a step in ruggedness from the classic touring bike for most people. Also, fit is so important. I wish you success.

    Likewise, now retired 74 yo still major mode of personal transport is a bicycle, don't own a car by choice. Built high end steel frames from 80's. I am 110 kg and most of my builds were for even bigger men. While the steel bikes are heavier but only marginally. My current steel frame bike is 1 kg heavier than a Giant defy advanced large but has a 16 cm longer wheel base and wider rims and tyres. Rides is so much smoother and while the acceleration and handling is not as snappy cornering and stability is excellent and due to the comfort and reduced harshness a little faster over distance.

    This clip was very good looking visually. Strange how I recently got the idea I would like to have a channel with this slow style as I always liked long wide frames (not bike frames, film frames) and the so often considered fashionable closeups in peoples faces annoys me.
