Congratulations! Great backstory and summary. Massively creative show idea you started out with, I still watch the old episodes! I also like the common instruction book style content you produce now, too. Happy New Year, and may you and yours be safe, healthy, and happy. Thank you✌️
James, would it be possible to link some of the old Stumpy Nubs videos that you referenced or showed clips from?
I spent over an hour list night trying to find out why you were scoring lines in the side of a hand plane, with a hacksaw.
I am guessing it was an angle guide? (if anyone knows please send me a message) Still would love to watch the original video though
@@mwimmer8947 That was the handplane surgery video. It didn't work very well. The chips got caught and the blade wanted to skew. th-cam.com/video/DiTwEeFgAIg/w-d-xo.html
@@StumpyNubs kinda wish you did a second channel for the goofs now.
I love and miss the antics, I think you can bring some of the humor back. Also I'm getting a little misty eyes seeing your dad again, particularly the outtakes. Point and counter point was hilarious 😂. Mustache Mike is still the best , your dad is an absolute gem.
Oh and that James Hamilton guy is a real square... 😆
Oh and I knew instantly that was the UP in your intros. I've never been, but I had friend I worked with who was from the UP and he was the best and absolutely hilarious.
Jim, I have been a contractor and woodworker for 50 Years this spring. I love both you knowledge and your humor. I love both and think your great.
Been wondering about the origin of “Stumpy Nubs” grateful for the detailed exposition - and a pleasure to see the highlights from past years! Thanks so much.
remember not to chase analytics forever. the creativity that drove stumpy nubs is at the heart of what makes your videos enjoyable to watch.
Dude, you are never boring...I come to your channel to learn.
James I was there when you were just Stumpy, it was such a catchy name how could you refuse to watch it. It help me begin my woodworking journal and today my channels closing in on 20,000 subscribers. You’ll always be stumpy to me, thanks James.
I always thought the Stump Nubs character and show were loosely based on the Canadian show The Red Green Show. I personally enjoyed both Red Green and Stumpy Nubs but understand the change. I'm certainly not saying the new show is bad, quite the contrary but I do miss some of the off the wall humor. Thank you for ALL the videos you create.
Ditto. Well said.
Yeah, definitely get the red green vib
Same an actual useful Red Green show. It was fun.
I'm one of the few that have been with you since you started! And while I did find you humor very funny, I have to admit I probably wouldn't have stuck around for a decade if it weren't for what I learn from you. I started making cabinets with my dad more than 40 years ago but I still learn something almost every time I watch one of your videos. So congrats and keep it up!
And now one small request for a future video. I believe that Stumpy should come out of retirement for one special episode on your channel. We haven't heard from him in a while and we miss him and want to make sure he's OK. So PLEASE, let's see Stumpy visit our screens once again!
I want to know what happened to Mustache Mike....
I remember some of these older videos and honestly, at times, bring Stumpy back LOL! You are funny and the comedy is much appreciated at times.
Cheers on the 10 year anniversary! Here's hoping for another 10 years 🍻🍻
Congratulations on your first of many decades!
I enjoy the snot out of your channel, especially the older ones! You and your crew have done amazing things for our sawdust addiction!
46 years in the remodeling and building materials field. Never grow tired of watching your posts. Learning is a lifetime project. congrats on a decade.
I've been a subscriber to your channel for a few years now, but not since the beginning, so I enjoyed the trip down memory lane. Your content has gotten more and more professional, even during the time I've been watching. I can't tell you how much I've learned from you that has helped me along in my relatively short time woodworking. This channel, along with a few others, have made it possible for me to take up this great hobby relatively late in life and make some things that my family and friends really love. And your safety videos are priceless. This is no joke: right after watching your video on having and stocking a first aid kit in your shop, I literally got online and ordered most of the same first aid gear for my own little shop - right down to the same cabinet. I'm looking forward to continuing to learn from you and make useful and beautiful things in my shop for as long as I am able. Thanks, James. I really appreciate your contribution to the woodworking community. Happy New Year!
As someone who only discovered your channel a few years ago, this trip down memory lane was a great way to learn more of the back story. Fun to see your journey. I’ve watched an awful lot of your videos but am now looking forward to going back and watching some of those very early ones.
I've been with you for a good part of the journey James and I can honestly say I've enjoyed all the iterations the channel has gone through. Just keep the videos coming and a whole lot of us will be happy. Thanks for what you do.
I've been following you for six or seven years so not you're whole You Tube journey, but for quite a while. I've enjoyed your content and learned so much from you. It doesn't matter who brings the content James or Stumpy, I appreciate you and look forward to a new year watching and learning. Thank you.
You make consistently calm, informative, responsible and overall great videos on woodworking. I'm not a big wood worker but do a little and hope to do more so I check in every so often and am never disappointed. I actually appreciate that you do not take up viewers' times with bad jokes of long intros or music. You seem to intuitively know how to present important and interesting information without having to pander or act like a fool. What a relief ... my favorite kind of YT channel. Congratulations to you and your channel and have a great 2022.
I began watching in the spring of 2014 while recovering from surgery. I fondly remember the original Stumpy Nubs character. One of my favorite videos from that time is the sawbench build. It's a great balance between education and entertainment - I go back and watch either the original version or the short version when I can.
You are my go to person for sound woodworking tips and advice James Hamilton. Thanks for ten years!!
I've been with you for most of your journey James and I've enjoyed both the past the new channel. Please keep videos coming and a lot of us will be happy. Thanks for what you do and am looking forward to the next 10 years.
I love this time of year and your annual “Stump Speeches” because you truly deserve the incredible success. We appreciate it all and thank you as always,
-CY Castor
I’ve come along late, and always wondered about the “Stumpy Nubs” backstory. Thank you so much, James, for supplying the back story since the beginning of your journey. Enjoyed it immensely! And thank you for all the knowledge you’ve shared over the years.
I've only known you for about a year now and it was cool to see how you began, nothing happens over night and yet you stuck with it and how you're here helping millions of people. I love everything about your channel. Keep it up I look forward to each video.
Happy New Year, James! I value your new content more - you're honestly one of the best educators on the platform - but the old videos were a lot of fun!
Congrats dude on making content for a decade. That's a real milestone i'm a new viewer with no real interest in wood working but this channel provides so much useful info like that flat nail point thing i learned a few days ago that you earned my sub. I hope to be here for the next decade of videos,
Not going to lie, I 100% agree. I don't think I'll ever be able to afford a workshop like my grandfather had, but over the last couple of years, I've enjoyed the videos on this channel immensely, and learned a lot even if I can't put it into practice. Thanks!
I am also without an interest in doing woodworking, don't have the space to if I was interested, but watch because I like learning about things.
@@MonkeyJedi99 exactly why I subbed. Some of this is just nice to know
spot on
> i'm a new viewer with no real interest in wood working
> this channel provides so much useful info like that flat nail point thing
If you have no interest in woodworking, how could that information possibly be described as "useful" to you?
I found you channel a couple years ago, and have been watching ever since. I have gone back in the deep dark archives of the Stumpy Nubs video vault, and watch a bunch of the older videos. I have found them entertaining, and informative. Both reasons to keep watching. I can see why things have changed over the years. Keep em coming, I enjoy learning from your videos.
James, it’s amazing to get this retrospective with your thoughts. The contrast between your older and newer videos has been something I’ve noticed on many occasions! You have done so much here and come a really long way. I hope you are proud. And thank you.
I just found your channel within the last couple weeks and can't get enough, I'm learning a lot of stuff I thought I already knew. The early videos you put in here reminded me of "The Red Green Show" back in the day, keep doing what you are doing I'm thoroughly entertained and intrigued at what you will show me next.
Oh I loved the red green show!
I love the Red Green Show too, especially Handyman Corner..... Uncle Red always did some AMAZING builds!! And remember to "Keep Your Stick on the Ice" and also......."If the women don't find you handsome, at least they might find you handy!"
Well, James, I have only been following you for the last 3 years, as one of the best woodworking channels with interesting, valuable, and reliable, content, but I must say I enjoyed every time you made a joke or funny comment. I think humor and rigor are not mutually exclusive, and that’s certainly true in Stumpy Nubs’ case. Thanks for all the good moments and lessons. Keep ‘m coming, and that 2022 may be good to you. 👍
Just adding my personal thanks for all your content. I appreciate the bite size videos at the daily post rate. arguably the most useful and informational woodworking tips on TH-cam. You have made me a better woodworker.
Your channel has become a mainstay in my growth as a woodworker. I enjoy the humor but a find your teaching and sharing of knowledge to be of great help. Keep up the good work and let's have a marvelous next decade.
Personally, I will sorely miss "Stumpy Nubs". I've been watching you for about 5 or 6 years now. And will continue to do so. I understand it. Success often means sacrifice. Often means changing something up. Always got and loved your jokes! Hope that doesn't get cut out completely. But I do love that you are willing to keep doing this to teach what you know. Your videos are an invaluable resource. I don't look forward to the day you decide to retire. Love all you do, grateful you are there to do it. You saved my life with that video where you got hurt. For that I am deeply grateful. I will continue to watch and reference all your other videos for when I need help. Congratulations on your growth and success in what you do. You've earned it my friend.
Ya know, how flushed out your characters were, the town nobody knows about, they may seems inaccessible to those out of the know, but it really makes you feel like you're going into another world, being invited in almost. It's got a bit of a magical feel to it. Either way, glad you're doing what ya love.
On the other hand, his characters probably were not enthused about getting flushed out... 😀
Stumpy. I love the humor and the old gags. People need to lighten up a bit. I am a Downeaster so that may explain why I get you. Also I have learned a great deal for your instructional. Thank you. The Hiking Woodwoorker
I found you when I started repairing and refinishing furniture. Humor is fine but I really appreciate the calm, clear information. When I need a little knowledge about a tool or technique, you're one of the you-tubers I check out first. You're one of my trusted sources, and I appreciate your work!
So proud of you. Excellent work. I appreciate you staying down-to-earth and easy going helping woodworkers... really appreciate you!
You are still the puny-est guy on TH-cam! Loved your original videos as well as the current ones. Thanks for being you and taking us along for the ride through your growth during the last 10 years.
Thanks a LOT for everything you've been doing since the beginning, James! 😊
Happy new year! And stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Don't ever say you're boring. The skill you have as an educator is priceless
I've been enjoying you for years and it's been a pleasure to see you evolve over the years. I do miss humorous older style videos but I also appreciate the new ones too. Congratulations and thank you for the last 10 years!
Good going Stumpy!! I have traveled along with you the past decade James, and it has been, and still is, a great ride. All things evolve, and I think it is meant to be like that. All the way from participating in your woodworking jig contest in June 2012 to the format of 2022. Happy New Year Sir, and tell Mr. M.M that he needs to pay your shop a visit soon:)
Thank you James, that answered a few questions. Congratulations on your 10 years on TH-cam and thank you for the valuable tips, sound advice and great entertainment. Here's to the next 10 years.
Thank you for this, it is nice to watch. I've been an amateur woodworker for about seven or eight years now, and I only recently discovered your channel, maybe 6 months ago. Because of your straightforward, yet fantastically information rich style, it immediately became one of my TH-cam favorites. Thank you for all of the time and effort you put into your channel.
I stumbled upon your site a few years ago & immediately subscribed. Although I have 40 years in professional woodworking, I have never felt that my skills would ever match my love for the design & building of projects. Being a big fan of Red Green, your original concept of humor infused education looked to be a great starting point. How you & your site have evolved speaks volumes of your love of the craft & appreciation for your audience. Thank You!
Congrats on your 10 years of success! Stumpy, no matter the iteration, is an inspiration in so many ways! Love ya bud, thanks for being awesome all these years!
Inspirational! Man. Been a viewer for two years. Never saw this old stuff. I'd love to hear how many times you almost gave up. Incredible, and thank you!
Thanks for a great 10 years. You and Marc Spag were a great help getting me back into the shop.
I would love to see your woodworking news brought back with all your offbeat humor in a separate series if you would enjoy making more funny videos. I do also love the channel I found this last year with so much calming and informative content. Happy New Year!
So touching, and a very cool back story! Your willingness to grow and evolve with your channel undoubtedly saved your channel. The one change I’m especially thankful for is your camera and lighting quality 🤣
Don't forget the improved audio :)
Hey, good job! Making this work for ten years is an accomplishment, and seeing the changes you went through is both enlightening and entertaining. I watch pretty much all your current vids, but came in too late to see previous versions.
Priceless... and the best is yet to come! For the time being, I wish you and the SN family a great, productive year of 22. Big hug!
I loved the old stumpy and also the new stumpy. Gonna have to go back and re-watch all the old stuff and reminisce.
Wow! I had no idea. I’m a new subscriber so this is all new to me. However I love your content. Honest and real! Love it. Thanks for all you do!
He's got lots of content/tips/tricks/ideas! Been watching for yrs now
@@J.A.Smith2397 Yes, you are so right. It’s somewhat overwhelming but I’m taking it slow in watching the videos. They are like talking, or rather listening to a friend.
It is amazing how TH-cam has gone from just fun videos to actually learning woodwork from great woodworkers like yourself. Take care
As a new subscriber, I found you recently because of an interest in woodworking. I would have loved the mix of humor and projects in your old days. Reminds me of a more serious and practical Red Green show.
Don't worry Jim, you'll grow into those looks! Funny, informative, entertaining or just plain 'serious for a minute' - Your clear, concise, honest approach has drawn me into your workshop. You've been a major player in bringing about a new found interest in woodworking, that I'd dropped in school in favour of Art class, back in 1974. I may never cut mitres like Jon Peters - or fabricate whole workshops full of....er....everything imaginable like DiResta but I'll always be there listening to your advice in the hope of getting just a little bit better one video at a time. Tell Stumpy, Happy New Year and thank him for starting this marvelous channel, and of course a Happy New Year to all his joyfull workers as you continue to make sawdust.
I had shop class in 7th and 8th grade back in the early 90's. We also used the school shop in boy scouts before that. Great memories and lots of learning. Can't believe it's not part of the standard education in this country anymore.
As much as I enjoy the newer content , I will always miss those older episodes. I thought those earlier shows were a lot of fun . Congrats on 10 years!
Congrats on 10 years James. Your videos got me into the craft. Changed my life. Thank you so much.
Thank you for all the wonderful educational videos! I love the interjections of dry humor!
Wishing you and your viewers many more years of awesome content 💖
Happy New Year..Love this channel
As a viewer from day one....I've enjoyed all the different "characters", including the real you. Congrats on 10 years.
Thanks for your service and education! Loved hearing the origin of your beginning. Fabulous!!
I have been around for a long time. And it was the old format, the humor, that got to me. You were one of my first subs if not my very first. As you changed, I missed it but loved the new format as well and still come back. Have yourself a cold one my friend you deserved it.
James (great name), I’ve seen some of your older videos, and while I didn’t learn much about woodworking from them, I did have plenty of laugh out loud moments…and that’s a good thing. Keep it up because as they say in theater: “The show must go on.”
I've seen a few of the original "Stumpy Nubs" and they were entertaining. As the years have progressed, I've noticed your demeanor has shifted more towards safety (especially after that horrible accident with the carver/angle grinder). While your original content was just entertainment....as you put it....it still inspired me to start woodworking. :)
Congratulations on a decade of great videos!
Started watching you a few years ago as I was just getting into woodworking and as a Michigan native and lifelong red wing fan, your channel was everything I could have wanted. It was nice seeing the picture of you and April Wilkerson. You two are my most watched woodworking channels. Keep up the great work!
I came to your channel a few years ago. I subscribe to your channel and watch it regularly because of your calm, clear manner of speech, rational, logical presentations, professional level video and lighting, and the great content. I would never have continued to watch you had I been there at the beginning, as the smarmy sarcasm and humor of the early years would not be my cup of tea.
Congrats on 10 years! Sorry I missed the first 5 or so; some of that looks like it was pretty funny. I look forward to every new video you make now and watch it as soon as the notification pops up.
Even as a fairly experienced woodworker who has graduated from making cabinets and such to what can be called by many as "fine furniture", I still learn something useful nearly every time.
Those first years are still available. Just click on "Stumpy Nubs" under one of his videos. Then click on "videos" and the whole series will be available.
Enjoyed that immensely It is the mark of a great mind to be able to look back at your own past and make no excuses but to point out the growth that made you you, Well done. by the way your Dad was funny than you haha Always looking forward to your content Congrats on 10 years
I remember you joining Lumberjocks many years ago and was a follower from the beginning. Loved Stumpy fireside chats but the channel is even better now! Congratulations!!
James - been there since the beginning and have enjoyed the evolution. Thank you for what you do and for the incredible knowledge you bring to the craft. Happy New Year! 🤙
I miss Mustache Mike
I love the original format of your channel and all of the ensuing iterations. Keep up the fantastic work and be sure to pop a cold one, because you have definitely earned it my friend! Jim
I've been watching for as long as I've had a fancy phone that accommodates it, about three or so years I guess. I was hooked from the get go. I've learned tons and enjoyed every bit of it. I also appreciate the silliness, as I'm a little silly myself.
Cheers to many, many more years of Stumpy Nubs!
I've never watched any of your Blue Collar Woodworking series but this video managed to make me nostalgic for it nonetheless. I think I'll have to go back and check it out. I really enjoy your clear, concise delivery, I've learned a lot from watching you. Thanks.
Wow I remember the old videos fondly! And this puts in perspective just how many years have gone by!! Congrats and and here's to ten more!
Congrats, and thank you for everything you have given us in the past decade!
I, for one, miss the instructions to have a cold one - I often think I've earned it, but nobody acknowledges it anymore!
You are simply amazing James ! Can't thank you enough for all I learned from you. You cool tools videos break the bank but help bringing cash more efficiently.
I started watching you and your dad and just loved the banter between you both I had little interest or knowledge about woodwork back then but you both made it look fun and interesting and because of that there is now a little workshop on the edge of the forest in Hamshire UK which I spend far too much time in, and when I need to learn something your Chanel has always been my most trusted resource, glad you have a got a large audience now and may you keep on growing . Thank you for all that you do
Thanks for the memories! Great stuff through and through. Blessings in the New Year!!
One of the BEST WOODWORKING channels on You Tube. Many many thanks
1st YT video i have looked at for 2022, been watching your channel over the past 5yrs, congrats & keep making videos ..... viewing from Trinidad in the Caribbean
I've been a subscriber since your early days on TH-cam. It's been fun watching your transformations and the twists and turns of your channel. Thanks for all you've created and for all you continue to create. Your videos are always (well, usually) great, and I will even admit I've learned a thing or two.
I love your Cool Tools/Cheap Tools videos. Your affiliate links get some action. My Amazon order history is proof of that. Thanks again James!
Happy New Years Mr. Hamilton. I enjoy your sense of humour. Watch the new vids to max learning but I do enjoy viewing the old ones for the entertainment. Just keep on making them!
Congratulations Jim. I've been watching for some time now, and I really enjoyed your early videos. But, I also enjoy the newer ones as well. Keep up the good work, and have yourself a cold one to celebrate your first decade "because you've earned it, my friend".
I joined early on during COVID. Was fun getting the back story. Hope you’re still cranking out good content in another decade. I’ve learned from you and chased down some equipment for the shop that I enjoy and may have never known about if not for the show. Happy New Year! Congrats on 10!
I've seen some of your older videos and I really want them back. Your jokes are amazing. And I loved the almost office feel to it
I am a relatively new viewer so I didn't know the old Stumpy. This was great. Thanks for being entertaining while I learn woodworking from you.
Love those old videos! Congratulations for 10 years - that's almost an eternity on YT.
James - Congratulations on your 10th anniversary. I have really enjoyed watching your videos over the years. I always learn something useful and really enjoy your approach to wood working. Keep up the good work. I look forward to each new video. Hope to meet you sometime in the future.
James, I’m new to You Tube and newer to woodworking. Wish I could have seen your earlier shows. Yes, you are an educator.
But at a level few in any area of education ever achieve. I never
pass your lessons and move on.
EVERY one is inspiring and needed. Have a great new year!
…Joe in NJ
Hi James. I haven’t been with you since the beginning but I enjoy all sides to Stumpy Nubs, including the old timey woodworker. Partly because I am one. Have a very successful 2022🌞
I had no idea. I've only recently subscribed and gone through a lot of your content. Best teacher out there! Not just 'how' to do something, you include 'why' and 'why not'. Very detailed instruction in easily understood terms. But...I love that character and now I'm going to have to go check if you've left those old videos posted or have them in another channel.
Congratulations on your achievement. I enjoy seeing the old shows, I'm really glad you have grown into a larger version of yourself, and that you have become a real force for good in woodworking and in the world at large, for that matter. Please keep becoming the new improved you!!
This was awesome. Only found this channel a few years ago and backwatched some earlier episodes. They are quite good and entertaining. Loved the relax humour with no pretention. Just having fun for the sake of having fun.
I always loved how "Wlecome Creek" was misspelled on the 3d graphics, and thus never really paid attention to the Creek name itself.
You're Wlecome!
I loved getting a look at the Stump I never knew. It explained a bunch. What a great insight. Happy New Year.! :)
Stumpy, I love the old stuff just as much as the new stuff. The old stuff was what made me subscribe. I grew up watching The Red Green Show and I always throught you had the same vibe. Anyway, keep you the great work! I love the channel! Happy New Year!
You have lots of great information in your videos and I appreciate the time you put into them. The one that has had the most impact for me personally is the one on table saw kickback. That particular video is so important, it is such critical knowledge that is not obvious to new woodworkers in a growing community. Thank you for putting the time into that, yes it is a must see for those new to woodworking.
You are a credit to the craft, easy to understand, therefore easy to assimilate the education you're giving, and have made me better, which wasn't exactly easy! Thanks and God bless!
10 years... how time flies. Congrats. I haven't been along for that long but I do enjoy your educational videos. Throwing in a back handed joke now and then won't hurt too many peoples feelings. Than again too many get chapped over the smallest issue any more. Better keep it to woodworking and I hope to meet you in person some day. Keep up the great work.
you are a wonderful educator. I work as a cabinetmaker but I was never educated in woodworking. Your videos are incredibly useful in my daily work. Thank you for making these videos and please continue doing so.
Thanks for filling in the details of your story. Happy new year!
i'm one of the more recent subscribers and it's entirely because you present high quality information clearly and thoroughly. have fun and crack your cold ones, but i really do appreciate your "boring facts"!!
