Well done on not giving up the path. I too suffer from chronic lack of room and it's usual cause...poverty. Don't give up the fight! 😀😀

Thanks Stefan :)

Thanks for sharing! I love that you’re tracking time spent on each video - wonderfully enlightening and extremely useful information.

[@SpinesAndSplines]

Thanks Giz! Time evaporates when editing video and if I didn’t track it I’d definitely underestimate wildly.
