I always love when someone tells you what to do with your videos. Like you're making specific videos just for them to watch 😂
It's good to see your daughter is welcome into the shop...and if she develops an interest in creating she will be so much the better for it.
You keep doing what You do- It works!
I think it is awesome you involve your kiddo in your work! I’m sure she loves spending time with Dad while he is creating!
I don't even have 1000 subs yet, and I get snarkey comments and emails. Can't imagine what you get. Keep doing what you're doing. I enjoy the chill, low-key style.
My daughters both spent some time in the shop with me when growing up, now when my oldest daughter who is now 45 years old comes to visit me we spend time in the shop making projects she can take home and use in her home. Hopefully your children will continue to show interest working with you throughout your lives. I always look forward to seeing her pop up.
Please….I love that you include your family.
Keep doing what you're doing. Some people will find anything to complain about. I absolutely love your videos.
Cave Trolls. Mountain Trolls. Bridge Trolls. Internet Trolls. Heed them not. Your videos are great. I love that your family is willing and interested in what you do. Keep doing it.
Haha well said!
I liked this video, and the others I have watched. You are talented and skilled and a good teacher/presenter. Your students are blessed to be able to study directly with you. As to the comment on children, a very good response. Well done! nt
Were are twins girls. Watched your show for a long time with mum & dad who are fans of yours. We love watching the sneaky elf aka your beautiful angel. Bugger everyone else & live the life that you're in mate. We're not weathy nor pauper but our life is rich of family caring people who gives lots of smiles, laughter, hugs & kisses and the occasional custom made bushcraft knives & hatchets etc. Keep rocking the shows mate. Your videos get our family together on mum's favourite couch watching you do your magic and at one time your red knickers...ha! All the best for the new year & safe and delightful Christmas. Greetings from Christmas Island.
I like the shop elf!
Little Easter eggs and surprises from just off screen are always fun and fun is why we do this.
Thank you Dustin and Devon, really enjoy your videos. Take care and as always, much love from South Africa
Thank you Val!
I love your videos, Dustin. They are very well done. Funny that someone can complain about something they get for free. Keep up the good work.
I am really liking these videos. Yes, when I made my bushcraft axe per your video, I used the wet rag method to keep the heat down. Worked very well for me. Thanks for all your information.
Hi Dustin! I take this opportunity to send you a great greeting, since although I do not understand English at all well being so fluent, something that I do understand you, and I really like the clarity with which you explain their doubts to your followers. A hug, my friend.
Cheers brother!
A teacher! I did not know that. Makes sense. You certainly have the personality for it. What subject(s) do you teach? My oldest son started as an Ag mechanics teacher at the high school level. Later took a position at a junior college as a welding instructor.
Hey Dustin how do i send you pictures? I watched one of your videos on making a bushcraft knife sheath and it inspired me to make one like the one you made. Id like to send you a couple pictures of it. Im pretty pround of it becayse it is my first attempt and making a knife sheath. Its not perfect but im happy with it. Thanks again for all the great videos. Davy
This is your videos,Your sweet little girl I think you might want to making a video teaching her something,and let her see the enjoyment you have bonding with her!!!. Thanks for your videos.
I personally love seeing her in the videos. She is adorable.
Family first!
New subscriber. Love the content I've seen so far.
Welcome. Thanks for watching.
Ignore the Grinch!
Where do you go to find makers marks to identify axes? I have one w a couple marks that I can't find online. One is a ringed sheaf of grain, the other kinda looks like 3 mushrooms butted at the bases. Also has a number out of 1000: 56/1000. I have seen a similar shaped Hults Bruks head but the marks are different.
trolls gonna troll... Keep doing you, let them go find a bridge to haunt...
Nice coozie, Broseph!
That japanese hammer head is an awesome find! It looks like it's really well made. I personally don't think most people can even handle a blacksmithing hammer much heavier than 2lbs anyways. Everyone tries to act or look tough by using these huge 4lb hammers but there technique sucks and they're actually slowing themselves down when it comes to blacksmithing. It takes years to get really good with a 2lb hammer to where you should even think about going heavier. You could move some serious amounts of metal with that thing, the rounding side looks great, I didn't quite get a good look at the flat side but I'm sure it's awesome too.
And don't forget your brother mate..!
Geez. Some people.
It's better to have your child in your life than not having them in your life because that's when they hide stuff and get in trouble SO KEEP CLOSE TO THEM KIDS BRO AND SCREW WHAT HE SAYS KEEP BEING A DAD 👨 💯
Piss on the naysayers. I feel your children are a great idea and do not detract.
Oh Dustin, what about the workshop. You don't have any more ideas or you will continue with the questions. Don't forget that your works brought people closer to loving this channel. I and society don't look at these questions anymore, because a lot of them don't even understand the language. Come back Dustin, because watching someone else's video, like yours for example, is the most fun and the best way to learn. That's my opinion, don't take offense. Greeting. 🙋🥂👌
We can only produce one or maybe two build videos (max) a month. They take a long time to make. The question videos are to fill the gaps during the month when we are shooting and editing the big videos. Nothing is changing, we just want to appease the KZhead Gods with weekly content. Hopefully we answer some good questions and connect with more viewers along the way. Thank you for watching!
@@TheArtofCraftsmanship I understand everything you said, however, when something is not interesting, people simply won't watch it. (questions and answers) I didn't watch the video either, unfortunately, and neither did my friends, because we were expecting some kind of work. I recommend you Dustin, it is better to play an old video clip than those questions. Although that can also bother someone. I just wanted to give my opinion, no offense. You are a wonderful man, God bless your nobility. Pleasant.
Family in your vids is no biggie, it’s not like you’re doing a live reaction to their report cards or embarrassing them etc.
Love seeing kids involved. Teaching another generation
kids in videos only bother me when its exploitative. not here
Maybe you don't need to rub in how good your life is as there are people who aren't as lucky
Hope you have a good day. Thanks for watching.
Think its not that easy. There are lots of bad people out there. They may go after you and your kids. Dont think its a good idea to expose your children here or in any " social " media. They might find themselves on pages you do not want to see them. Or they might be recognised in the real world. Also it could affect their working career in future.Whats on the net stays there for ever. Just a thought.
I'll be less diplomatic: "F that Troll". 🤘🤘 I love your videos. The content is always engaging and informative. In fact, your channel was one of the first I followed when I decided to take knifemaking and forging a little more seriously.
Thanks Jim!
It's a small part of your videos, but it's an even smaller part of your audience. Absolutely no point replying to an individual trolls single comment most people never even saw.
Putting children in videos should be controversial because of safety risks online and yet to be seen effects of being quasi celebrity, not because someone dislikes looking at them. Hollyweird celebrity children are usually a mess. We should be making the best possible choices for our children. Many content creators include their children to sell their videos. I am not accusing you personally of that, as I don’t know you well enough, just putting some views out there for people to consider. That said, I hate that term “troll.” Content creators put out info and the audience comments in the provided area. They are part of the whole process. Comments can be good or bad, but they are a total part of the process. Also, people who put up bad information or who push controversial subjects in their videos use the term into the ground deflecting blame from their own bad behavior. Otherwise just call it the “flattery” or “kiss up” area, not “comments.” Many people try to shut down opinions they do not agree with by quoting “If you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all,” Thumper’s Mom. Personally, I’m not in the habit of taking Disney cartoon characters’ advice. Lol. I learned to be honest, use critical thinking (aka think for myself) and to stand up for those who cannot defend themselves not just be “nice” and shut up and go along to get along. Those people are ignorant of the importance of constructive debate in our society, especially in the USA.
It was thumpers Dad. !!!
