Thanks for all of you who provided me with your feedback as to how I can improve my CNC product videos a while back... here is the latest one! Anything else that can be improved other than shaving my growing beard?

Geez, i thought i was watching a music video from MTV, i was waiting for Rhianna to pop up somewhere:eek: It looks good. I think you are striking a good balance between enteraining us and informing us how to put it together.

I think at least for portions i might have the dust collection removed and show us cutting patterns. There have been times when i wondered "how is he cutting that inside area?, or how does he cut "this" part to make them fit together?

I was going to say...have it set up so that people can subscribe to your videos because it just looked like you were throwing videos up there, but i clicked on the i3DS button and that took me to your channel.

Do you include a paper diagram on how to put these models together, or do they just figure it on their own? If you do, i wondered if it is like this:
"A fits into the left side of B" (showing a picture of part A and B) then would it be a good idea to mark each part with a A, B,C, ect?

Or if you're just not smart enough to figure this out on your own maybe they shouldn't buy one of these?:eek:

I think you are doing a great job, keep it up! I SUBSCRIBED....:D

Hi Jack, things will get better as I learn more... turning the dust collection off or away simply makes the board covered in dust so you actually see less. I would be very happy with a much smaller dust system for filming and I only have one camera so I prefer to have it stationary until I get another to do more "close-up" b-roll shots.

As you can see on the product page, there are PDF assembly instructions.

So the videos help as does the 3D for many of my customers who do not know English. Once I have enough assembly instructions made, I put them into a book and just sell that instead of individual plans - easier and cheaper for everybody involved.
