Hey Nikos, yes the main problem is that the post timeline will get very crowded, which might be a bit annoying for those not interested in the updates. There also doesn't seem to be any way to turn off email notifications with each post, so it would get a bit spammy for everyones inbox too - I figure this is a good compromise :)

Chris a suggestion. I would very much like to see the status update posts as separate posts vs additions to existing post. I don't get any notifications if you edit a post so I missed quite a few of the updates. Not sure what other patrons think. Yes you will end up with more status posts than videos in the patron feed but it's a tradeoff. Thoughts?

Terrific to have you watching mate :) Its on the to-do list, but I never seem to get to it because the project videos get priority - the only real piece of advice I can give is use PLENTY of light.

Clickspring

Yes, agreed - I'd love to film everything, but its just so time consuming. I can do one or the other (prototype/final), but I'd be hard pressed to do both and keep the video flow going. As it happens the process I mentioned above is a go - very excited about this one, I will start shooting it today.

Loving the videos as always, especially the diligence of your research with the Antikythera mechanism. I'm wondering if we could get some more insight into your video production process. I'm planning some instructional videos for my lab, and the clean, professional style of your videos is absolutely top-notch.

In Re: Jun 6 - " If I can get it to work, it will be a very worthwhile video." While you may have better things to do, I'm sure that even if you can't get it to work, we'd enjoy hearing about it. Much science fails to do anything, but as long as the work itself was done well, important lessons are learned.

This is a status update that I mentioned in a previous post - essentially a single monthly post (regularly updated) where you can get a day to day update on my activities in between video releases. Simply ignore the posts with the [STATUS] tag if such updates are of no interest to you .

I see a screen shot of a monitor but no content. No links to content.

Clickspring

How do you mean Paul?

Paul Devey

is there supposed to be something here?

Clickspring

ha ha! Fair enough! Take it as given that I'm talking about my own time zone, AEST.

Stephen Boyd

Uh so I love these updates and all but when exactly is this evening? Like, Australia is really far away my dude and It would take quite a bit of googling just to get the time. Could you post it in the future with a timezone included? thx chief

Clickspring

Yes Blue Yeti :)

Paul Reeber

Is that a Blue Yeti?

Clickspring

Ha ha! Hopefully not rotten tomatoes!

...can't...wait...

Subsequent produce? You mean like lettuce or something?

This is the best news I have had all day, I can't wait!!!!

I'm another Aussie with overseas friends. I often say that the world cannot end today because it is already tomorrow in Australia! :)

Clickspring

Ha ha!

Same here Chris, mine its on its way also. A Clickspring episode also on its way! Win!

Gabriele Bonetti

I can already hear: "g'day Chris here and welcome back to clickspring" :)

Cool, cannot wait!! Additionally, I get the novelty of knowing that you posted this on the 2nd June and I'm reading it on the 1st (UK Greenwich BST) :-D More of that time travel stuff with This Old Tony no doubt.

A Glimpse Inside

A clickspring release day is a good day in my book. Also can't wait to get the fire piston. It's shipped and on its way. I'm taking it to the Oklahoma woodworking event later this month!

Clickspring

Its definitely better than it was 6 mths ago - it really struggled with my accent!

I think that YT translator is far better than Facebooks

Clickspring

Hey Anton, Yes I manually insert the subtitles after uploading to YT. The auto translated subtitles have too many errors to be acceptable (although it has improved a lot over the last few months)

Hey there, looking forward to the next episode :) One short question though, do you embed the subtitles in your videos directly? Asking because youtube shows it as "Englisch" without the "automatically translated "
