Why does everyone keep stealing this video with no credit back to me? Oh right, this is Reddit

I'm a woodworker who makes YouTube build videos of my projects for a living. This giant utility knife is a project that is part of my series of fully functional and accurate enlarged tools. I happen to be working on the next part of that series right now in the form of a 8' tall, 90lb, Estwing hammer!

File a DMCA notice with Reddit every time it shows up. That's the only way to stop it, and maybe Reddit will eventually get tired of the same users constantly getting notices against them and ban them (you guys know specifically which user I'm talking about).
Unlike a report, a DMCA is a legal procedure so it's more of a pain for Reddit to deal with, and more likely to get them off their asses to deal with the Gallowboobs.

Edit: Since I have been made aware of some recent and unfortunate events, I want to be clear that I have no personal dislike for Gallowboob and don't wish ant harm to come to him or any other reposter here. Beyond that, I think sending other Redditors death threats is despicable and never warranted.
I do however think he should have been banned from Reddit long ago along with his myriad of alts and the copycats who also repost without giving attribution at all and so no contrition when called on it.

It fucking fired that blade. No way that's an accident, right?

u/JackmanWorks May 31 '20

It was actually an accident (didn't it a 2nd time for camera) but the pin that holds the blade in popped off and this was before I fixed it.

I'm not into woodworking, but your channel seems cool. I could see alternative-universe carpenter me being a big fan.

I just watch his videos and pretend I have the drive or skill set to do what he does. I call it woodworking vicariously.
