YouTube Woodworkers are broken out by country in the chart below. The counts are accurate as of the pull date shown in the YouTube Woodworkers Dashboard.
Not surprisingly, the bulk of woodworking channels on YouTube are based in the United States. Canada and Great Britain are in second and third, respectively, but it’s not close.
I find the differences in woodworking super interesting! Beyond the obvious difference in measurement systems, the tools and techniques can be very different. I’m always excited to watch when I find a new channel from a different country. A few that stand out:
- Keillo Wood in Finland. He builds furniture highlighted in other woodworkers’ videos.
- Hooked on Wood in the Netherlands. Amazing workshop with high-end tools and accessories.
- Woodshop Junkies in South Africa. High-efficiency builds for a small workshop.
