       Ask HN: Share your favorite YouTube channels focused on mastering a
       skill/craft
        
       I've just discovered channels with restoration videos on Youtube
       and these guys are true masters at their craft!
       https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2jNeObHnZY  Any other authentic
       channels I should check out about the mastery of a skill or craft?

             | 
             | Just one exception to this comment, I've found weight
             | ratios to be very important when baking. Recipes that go by
             | weight tend to be of much higher precision and overall
             | quality.
             | 
             | Lastly, as a beginner, don't be afraid to get things really
             | hot! As long as you don't see smoke (especially from oil,
             | oil should never release any smoke), heat is your friend. I
             | ditched nonstick for stainless, using heavy fats/oil (ghee,
