What are some good YouTube channels for beginner DIYers?

submitted about 6 years ago by Lwn3

I had found DIYorDIE, and I have enough basics down to follow a delicious recipe. I have started my journey.

I like to get a few different points of view when I learn how to do something. Different teacher have different accentuation points and different tips n' tricks and styles to be able to get a well rounded learning experience. It is usually the best way for me to understand and to learn without having somebody actually teach in person.

So what are some good suggestions for me to look into. Thanks guys (and gals)!

Fresh03 has multiple shows but focuses a lot on beginner mixing

DIYorDIE Several Shows but would definitely check out Noted

Developed DIY

OHM-Grown Alchemy

Mixin Vixens

Those are a few I would check out that have plenty of solid content and active chats during shows to get questions answered

I second this awesome list! Would also add Flavor-Pro website. Jenn is also on Mixen Vixens, but her website has a whole section dedicated to new mixers.

Also thefogvlog, Down the Rabbit Hole, and whatever Folkart's channel is if it wasn't mentioned.

I think it’s called New Amsterdam Vape but it’s some videos of images against a white background and his videos are quite long but DAMN does he guide you through every, single, step. Very clear

DashVapes is my favourite presenter of content. Really clear and watchable

New Amsterdam vape was the reason I felt I could diy long before I found Reddit. Resist was what helped me learn how to make something good. Experience taught me what I liked.

Same here. I appreciate those videos. The voice is very monotone but the messages/videos are educational

I even appreciate the monotone. So not bro culture.

I second this message. New Amsterdam Vape is all you need to understand DIYing concepts and more. Specifically this playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_L18sa1DJJw&list=PLWk48WC-L4IKb5HJDiJl1q22-f7DhCc_d

Dash Vapes is really informative, clear and to the point on many topic related to vaping. Once you have learned the basics and have a good graso, DIY or DIE is the channel for more in depth mixing.

That playlist, especially the first video, is seriously "desert island" knowledge. If all you could watch is one video or playlist, that's the one I would pick. Kudos and thanks!

this is underselling the sheer quality and clear utility of their videos! Thanks for pointing me to them!

I'd add the fogvlog channel as well. In depth analysis of newer single flavors as well as mixes (check out the "bangers" section)

DIY Vapor is a little hard to watch at first but he grows on you.

diyeliquidrecipes channel has some good recipes and information too, surprised it didn't get mentioned.

He has a sub too r/diyeliquidsrecipes, I like his youtube videos, they are short, on point and informative. Not a bunch of chitchat or blowing mad clouds into the camera.

Ya same, I like to get the info and go. On the rare occasion that I have free time I will put on a live show from all the other youtubers.

Try reading more. Specifically go through all the resources this sub provides. Should give you all the info you need.

I started, but it was late last night. I will definitely do that today. I just love having multiple sources to go off from. Helps me understand, I'm not good at learning from text and videos, I'm more of a hands on. Thank you.

I find text easier to follow when following a checklist sort of procedure, much easier to utilize while doing hands on than try fastforwarding and rewinding to find something.
