🎯 Reach quality

Subscriber activation · Solid

3.6%

Share of subscribers who watch a typical recent video (avg views ÷ subscribers) — the real reach behind the subscriber count, and a quick check on whether those subscribers are still active rather than a vanity number.

Recent vs all-time

-85%

Recent videos average 6K vs an all-time 39.3K/video — recent uploads run below the all-time norm — much of the lifetime views sit in an older catalogue.

About

Mijn hele leven vraag ik mij al af hoe de dingen om mij heen werken. Als klein kind vond ik het geweldig om oude apparaten open te schroeven en alle componenten er uit te halen. Mijn tools hierbij waren een hamer en schroevendraaiers, het meeste ging dan ook nooit meer in elkaar. Later tijdens mijn studie Luchtvaarttechnologie werd er van mij verwacht dat ik uit een boek kon leren hoe je dingen ontwerpt.. Al vrij snel had ik door dat dat niet de manier is voor mij. Dit is het moment dat ik echt begon met dingen maken. In mijn studentenkamer op de vloer en met wat gereedschap op mijn studie begon ik aan een van mijn eerste projecten: een gyro watch winder. Sindsdien heb ik altijd een of meerdere projecten waar ik mee bezig ben en probeer ik op deze manier mijn skillset project voor project te groeien. Op dit kanaal deel ik mijn engineering experimenten, bouw ik gave machines en help ik jou je werkplaats op te bouwen en de maker te worden die jij wil zijn!
