Our Sponsors

(and why we work with them)

Making free woodworking videos for YouTube can be tough on the wallet—especially in an industry where overheads are high.

Alongside product sales, donations, and commissions, we occasionally partner with sponsors to help bring a video to life.

Let’s be clear: some of the offers we receive are incredibly tempting, but not every deal is a good fit. It’s no secret that some creators damage their reputation by promoting anything for a quick payday.

Fortunately, most established creators realise that chasing short-term gains can harm long-term trust. We believe in the same principle—only working with brands and products we genuinely like, use, or believe in.

Below, you’ll find a list of the sponsors we’ve worked with over the years, along with why we chose them. Our hope is that this gives you complete clarity and confidence in the partnerships we’ve made—and the ones we’ll make in the future.
