A chainsaw rigged as a chop saw, in Beamish's 'Useful DIY Projects' short
The household short passed 150,000 views in its first day, while a companion clip of screw, nut and bolt tricks also ran well ahead of a usual start.
Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 156,091 views a day, 12 times a normal first day on this channel (13,574).

Back inside the house. A day after a brick-and-mortar short gave Beamish a quick start, as we reported here, the clips channel turned to the home: "Useful DIY Projects That Can Come in Handy Around the House 🔧 #simple #creative #diy #ideas". Its description promises practical fixes that make everyday tasks easier, and the short drew more than 150,000 views in its first 24 hours, roughly eleven times what a new Beamish short usually manages.
The comment section is small and mostly hearts, with a line in Persian and another in Indonesian. Its most liked comment singles out one build: a chainsaw set up to work as a chop saw. Perhaps tool tricks need little translation.
The same day brought "Useful Tricks for Screws, Nuts & Bolts 🔧 #diy #practical #nuts #hacks", which also ran well past a usual first day. The uploads keep coming, with bike repairs, fishing knots, woodworking fixes and art from everyday objects all following on Sunday.
None of this changes the channel's bigger picture. Beamish draws around two and a half million views a day across its long back catalog of how-to clips, and the overall day was, if anything, a little quieter than usual.
