YouTube Woodworkers Dashboard

Directory of YouTube Woodworkers

Where can I find a listing or directory of YouTube woodworkers? That’s the question I asked when I first started mining YouTube for woodworking videos. Early on, I ran keyword searches and browsed the results. It was very time-consuming, random, and unfulfilling.

I’m a spreadsheet freak, so I started a spreadsheet. I shared this with my wife and, because she’s a great wife, she expressed a tremendous amount of enthusiasm. I then jumped to the conclusion that everyone would have the same enthusiasm for my spreadsheet. 😉

That spreadsheet eventually turned into the table you see below. The table sorts by Channel Title by default, but you can click on any of the headers to sort by another column. Let me know if I’m missing any of your favorite YouTube woodworkers!

Dashboard Charts

And of course, once you have the data, it’s easier to visualize in charts. For performance reasons, the charts are on a separate pages.
