The next video is running late (and doesn’t yet exist)
Added 2024-09-15 17:39:08 +0000 UTCJust a quick note to say that this last week has been a productivity write off so I’ll only be startling work on the next video in the morning.
I was sick for a few days, then I needed to visit someone in hospital and finally I had to build a shed. You’ll appreciate that none of this involved pressing record on a camera, therefore I’m starting from scratch tomorrow.
I’m aiming for a shorter video so that I’ll have something to share sooner rather than later.
Sorry about this, it’s just that sometimes life gets in the way. It’s when death gets in the way that productivity takes a real nosedive though. (Fortunately this is not the case this time).
That’s it for the moment, as always thanks for reading.
EDIT - Just to clarify, no one I know has died this week - however it’s always a looming spectre. I should remember that my sometimes morbid sense of humor (inherited from my mother) doesn’t always travel.

You building a shed would have been classic Mat fodder. You missed out on a great video there Mat. Tag line could have been, " Man builds shed." Was it a vintage shed? 🤣🤣

2024-09-17 08:07:45 +0000 UTCOn the sharp gf9191. Speaking to my hifi guru mate, hesndone a few of these and is sure that the problem with the wow and flutter is down to the capstan rubber tube not being right (the tubing used isn't round enough and may be rubbing on the capstan surround) he's sent me a link to the 'right' bits on the eBay! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/284696323087?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=s0xNovMGSc2&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=lHMF6nmDTN2&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY hope that helps. He certainly sorted out my gf9090. The w+f is negligible. Cheers and thanks for all you do!

2024-09-16 18:50:39 +0000 UTCNoodles in the shed for the next Patreon update then me thinks!!

2024-09-16 18:30:54 +0000 UTCShed construction, certainly a content opportunity there 😁. Take care, do what you need to do for health, friends and family. We will still be here
Martin Dooley
2024-09-16 15:16:48 +0000 UTCI won't shed any tears this time! You deserve a break.

2024-09-16 08:48:17 +0000 UTCMat, we are always hoping you are taking sufficient time to care for your own needs and mental health - it’s frankly good for the channel when you are enjoying yourself, and you can’t have that without some balance. Wishing for the best for you and your loved ones.
Daniel Pritchard
2024-09-16 06:53:00 +0000 UTCThank you for the heads up. :)

2024-09-16 02:47:41 +0000 UTCThis is starting to get suspiciously Zen.

2024-09-16 01:30:07 +0000 UTCYou beat me to it! :-(

2024-09-16 00:17:42 +0000 UTCYou're on your own, Lee! 🫡

Lee Lavery
2024-09-15 22:55:05 +0000 UTCDo not give me ideas Grace!
Lee Lavery
2024-09-15 22:53:44 +0000 UTCBut what can a man take out of a shed?

2024-09-15 22:50:33 +0000 UTCWas that the radio ad? "Great selection, free erection" 😅. That jingle lives in my head rent free!

Randall Jennings
2024-09-15 21:48:30 +0000 UTCI guess Mat didn't purchase from solidsheds.com, this time. 😲 [sorry, but it had to be done.. I hope someone gets the reference]
Grace Robbins
2024-09-15 21:02:14 +0000 UTCThanks for shedding some light on the situation.
VWestlife
2024-09-15 20:45:29 +0000 UTCWell, I think we all know what a shed can take out of a man.
Joseph Dougherty
2024-09-15 20:38:32 +0000 UTCYou don't need to justify it mate, just look after your family - things like bereavements take time. With all the content you spoil us with, you take as long as you want, I do videos about trains, and when realife stuff comes into play, you've just got to put them on a backburner. And play Spectrum and 64 games and demos!
Andrew Franks
2024-09-15 20:32:57 +0000 UTCDon’t worry about it Mat. You’re entitled to be late no matter the cause. I’m sorry for your loss. 💔
Amro
2024-09-15 20:03:56 +0000 UTCBig hugs - take your time :)
evistre
2024-09-15 20:01:32 +0000 UTCNo apologies! It's good that life gets in the way. Please take care
Raul Ramos
2024-09-15 19:44:32 +0000 UTCYour confidence with us using power tools and not ending up with a collapsible death trap for Mat is as admirable as it is worrisome, Grace. 😂
Justin
2024-09-15 19:42:07 +0000 UTCPlease don't apologize! Life is far more important. I'd rather we have a life-balanced Matt instead of a stressed out Matt - it makes for better videos :)
Sergio Meyer
2024-09-15 19:32:57 +0000 UTCWhy do I get the sense it is a catio-like shed situation? 😉😼
Grace Robbins
2024-09-15 19:28:50 +0000 UTCGo for at least one size up from what you think you need. I started thinking about a 4ft x 3ft Ketter plastic shed. Then I actually bought a 6ft x 4ft wooden shed. Now I have put stuff in there I wish I had gone for a larger size.
Duncan
2024-09-15 19:26:35 +0000 UTC[Edit: I previously wrote "I'm sorry for your loss" but you updated to say you didn't lose anyone, which is always comforting to know]. I stand by the second part about taking all the time you need to do whatever mental health things you need to take care of yourself.
Chris Horry
2024-09-15 19:22:37 +0000 UTCI'm just here to join the chorus of those who would have loved seeing you build a shed! Beside that, no need to apologise for skipping a week!
ENP
2024-09-15 19:20:42 +0000 UTCI hope we get to see the completed shed in a Patreon update. I still need to sort mine out. At the moment there is a B&0 Boombox, A Sony F1 Tuner and a couple of laptops sat on the floor alongside the garden tools etc.
Duncan
2024-09-15 19:20:32 +0000 UTCUnpopular opinion: I'd rather not see Mat & co-builder create a shed. I'd rather see a group of us patrons build him a kick-ass studio shed. 😅
Grace Robbins
2024-09-15 18:56:18 +0000 UTCEven the GOAT of tech YouTube should take a break now and then. Hope the shed stays upright (mine hasn't).
Jim
2024-09-15 18:48:14 +0000 UTCWe were robbed of a "Techmoan builds a shed" video!
Steven O'Brien
2024-09-15 18:41:11 +0000 UTCI would have love to see you building a shed, any content from you is good content
Alejandroteken
2024-09-15 18:34:43 +0000 UTCI am seriously considering putting up a small steel shed, would like to have seen your take on it. Feel better brother.
Rick McCauley
2024-09-15 18:26:34 +0000 UTCShed video or it never happened. 😸
Rick McCauley
2024-09-15 18:25:26 +0000 UTCCheers for letting us know and hope it goes well and you're feeling better... And it's a hit! If in doubt buy 50 minidisc players and do a video again ;)
GraphicsMonkey
2024-09-15 18:24:53 +0000 UTCThanks for the update but not a problem - Life provides challenges for all of us
Mark Thomas
2024-09-15 18:23:10 +0000 UTCI mean, the shed bit could be reason for a video, depending on how much cursing is happening. But we'll be here when a video does appear, no matter the wait!
Studio Errilhl
2024-09-15 18:17:07 +0000 UTCLooking forward to the video whenever it arrives!
Alistair Boyer
2024-09-15 18:15:21 +0000 UTCTake care Mat, but I can't help thinking that a video of you building a shed could be a real winner!😀
Mark Hesse
2024-09-15 18:10:57 +0000 UTCOh… I was looking to the Techmoan building a shed video :(
Grant Harris
2024-09-15 18:09:49 +0000 UTCLove having weekly videos, but life happens!
David Parker
2024-09-15 18:05:18 +0000 UTCI have never expected a video each week, so take your time and look after yourself.
David Peaker
2024-09-15 18:03:00 +0000 UTCI hope the shed build wasn’t an urgent thing…I had to do some emergency repairs this week following last week’s wind. (I came out last week to find my shed door at the other end of the garden!). Take care and hope you’re feeling better :)
Martin Porcheron
2024-09-15 17:52:30 +0000 UTCJust as long as you never fall into my levels of malaise within the past month... you'll be in good shape. It's rough having little motivation or enthusiasm for life, so I've been forcing myself to do things. I admire you because you can have catch-up days/weeks to recoup if you need to. Remember we're all on your side and rooting for you. Be good to you 🤍.
Grace Robbins
2024-09-15 17:49:45 +0000 UTCKeep Calm and Carry On
Michiel Dost
2024-09-15 17:48:08 +0000 UTCNo problem , thanks for th heads up . Hope you are better
andreas wheeler
2024-09-15 17:46:39 +0000 UTCI've never known anyone so honest..... What about the dog ate the sd card or the computer crashed during editing ....... I think we all look forward to your video's Mat, but equally we all respect real life happens. All the Best !! 👍
Chris Palin
2024-09-15 17:46:35 +0000 UTCHope you are better, and the person you visited in the hospital too. Take care.
Esteban Maroto
2024-09-15 17:45:56 +0000 UTCTake it easy Mat. There’s way more important things in life than feeling some form of obligation to put out videos on a specific schedule. I (and I think the rest of us) really don’t mind if it takes a week, two weeks, three weeks or more for a new video.
Arjan Kooij
2024-09-15 17:45:50 +0000 UTCNo problem at all, Mat. Life happens sometimes.
Johan Eriksson
2024-09-15 17:44:09 +0000 UTCNo need to apologize. I hope you're feeling better and your friend has a speedy recovery.
J.R. Locke
2024-09-15 17:44:05 +0000 UTCNo video on building the shed? As someone who has neglected to fix his fence for the past year, you have my sympathy! Videos come when videos come, don't worry about it. We're always happy to wait, life needs to come first.
Steve Bailey
2024-09-15 17:42:59 +0000 UTCIt was a two person job and the other person wouldn’t want to be on camera sweating in a back garden.
Techmoan
2024-09-15 17:42:30 +0000 UTCNot a problem Matt. Maybe you could have filmed the shed build ?…..😉
