Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).

Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

In the new underground bunker my husband and I decided to build for our 4-year old daughters outdoor playhouse so that she could entertain guests without them having to take their shoes off after montessory ski school party camp to raise awareness for impoverished hamsters in bad homes in need of renovation that my brother's construction company has contracts with
hidden under the eco-friendly wood veneer
I strongly encourage everyone to look up and join their local tool library.
If you don’t have one, start one!
I just exclaimed "HOLY SHIT" loud enough to get my partner's attention. There are two in my area! They have so many tools!
Why didn't I know about this?! I considered myself educated, but now see I still have much to learn.
I feel like most diy construction channels are explicitly not designed for beginners/non construction workers to follow along with and imo that's fine. Its a very specific niche for people with a very specific set of skills and for them its probrally pretty helpful.
I mean you wouldn't expect a YouTube channel that does advanced scientific experiments to reduce their safety equipment so viewers could more easily replicate their experiments.
Tldr: It might be DIY that doesn't mean you can DIY it
I feel like I am in the target audience of this type of channel. I have spent the last 20 years buying a tool every few months, usually used. I might not have every tool, but short of a lathe or excavator, I can usually figure out a replacement.
I still consider myself a DIYer, since i am not professionally trained to do anything. I am fortunate enough to have like minded friends, some even professionals to ask. They watch these channels too, and they consider themselves DIYers on everything but their specialty area.
Parkside tools from Lidl have been a Godsend. Cheap but decent enough for casual use.
Still haven't released an excavator tho
Get cheap and available tool until you wear it, then since you clearly use that tool a lot and could do with an upgrade, buy the more robust, better constructed (and more expensive) version.
Most of my DIY tools are still the cheap Parkside ones but when I wear them out or they're not up to the task I replace with milwaukee.
Me when tools needed to build things
I saw a really cool youtube channel about a guy who makes his own tools out of 3D printed parts and concrete. He built both a drill press and a lathe.
Dunno how much cheaper that is than buying the tools outright, but it’s pretty impressive how people can find a way.
Lathes are expensive, but you can build a shitty one and use it to make a better one, and so on (if you have that kind of time and dedication).
Something about this feels right. Like buying a cheap 3d printer and building your way up to a quality, printed 3d printer.
Chris Borge? I love his videos, I find them very relaxing
I am not a DIYer. I am a scientist. I am equally inept, but doing dangerous shit is the point not a consequence. The helicopter is for when I succeed.
Who wouldn't want to own a bunch of expensive tools? These shorts are fun to watch, even knowing you'll never be able to replicate them.
