My youtube tips are:
Be nice to other tubers, give a helping hand to those who need it.
Just laying low for a while to produce Rolling Stock EP 2-3, these are complex and time consuming videos, like making match sticks out of logs..!
New episodes will be released like this:
First some Vlogs if questions have to be answered, Rolling Stock Ep 1 will be released in high quality widescreen 16:9 with a trailer for Bomber Diesel & Steam Ep 2The competition video will be a separate video with various tasks to be done to enter.
The prizes will be substantial, and a worthy thankyou to the loyal audience of Rolling Stock.
For those who need some tips on building channels or being noticed on youtube drop me a message for more advice, its free info, no secrets here.

Viewing info related to Rolling Stock Ep1 Mad Bomber.
It took 21 months to reach 1 million views
In 3 more months it reached 2 million views.
Thank you to all the Rolling Stock supporters, its been lovely getting to know some of you over the last two years.
Just laying low for a while to produce Rolling Stock EP 2-3, these are complex and time consuming videos, a new upload of Rolling Stock will have some extra scenes so it ties in with episode 2 and 3.
I have sent out to a very select few a DVD of Rolling Stock as it has never been seen; its the original edit with full titles and now in stunning widescreen. These people have helped me via their comments on videos which were fantastic problem solvers over the past few months.
On this channel youtube is a two way street.

### June 9

It's time for a channel tidy up, and re-work some of my earlier uploads to widescreen and high quality, and include footage missing due to my old channel restrictions.
First I aim to rework the backyard jets videos, ep 1 and ep2 were originally one video, split into two for youtube as it had a 10 min video length restriction, they deserve a higher quality version.
Some tubers have requested seeing the raw footage of the Rolls Royce Derwent starting so this will be included, they like to hear it without my voice over and I can understand that.
Please request any earlier video you would like to see in a better format.

When making a video I never set a release date as I hate working to dead lines, you tend to start cutting corners and it's not worth it.

I'm just a guy making kids happy by presenting them with my views about today's toys. Sometimes my Daughter & Son help me with the videos. That's all that goes on, quite simple really.
