Celtic knots on the lathe keep Fisher's Shop turning through a pause
Five turned projects with knot designs, inspired by a friend's demonstration, are nearing a quarter of a million views more than a year after they went up.
Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
Woodworking: Celtic Knots on the Lathe
"Woodworking: Celtic Knots on the Lathe" is more than a year old, and it is still the video people open most on Fisher's Shop. The idea came after the lathe arrived in the shop: Fisher saw his friend Mike make Celtic knots on one, liked the look and decided to try it himself. The video runs through five projects with different knot patterns, start to finish, and it is now closing in on a quarter of a million views.
The rest of the shelf shows how wide the shop's interests run. A software lesson, "How to use Vectric VCarve!", walks through a CNC project with profile cuts, lettering and epoxy inlays, and it still finds new learners more than a year on. The newest of the busy three is a summer build, "Woodworking: Making Easy Nightstands". It began as an upgrade for his friend John and ended up with two drawers, a lower shelf, a built-in outlet and phone charger, and tops of curly ambrosia maple.
No new uploads went up over the week. Views ran a good deal slower than usual for the channel, and subscribers held steady at 439,000.
Among the DIY and home channels near its size, HomeTransform and Stick welder had the big weeks, while Tools In Action and DIY Montreal kept a quieter rhythm much like Fisher's own. For a channel that calls itself clean and family friendly, the work being found right now is the patient kind: a knot of wood that takes five tries to show off properly.
