  Enter the Sift Lounge to chat with online sifters about anything and everything, or read interesting posts in the Sift Talk forum.
  The Top New Videos list is always full of interesting, current videos. It is always recommended that you have a look through the Top New Videos, but also have a look at these:
  - Upcoming Unsifted Videos - active video submissions that neither are published to the front page nor archived to the submitter's personal queue
- Have you seen a really funny, surprising, scary, interesting, cute or in any other way extra good quality video?
  Post and share it here - VideoSift is the best video aggregator on the Web, where we share, discuss, promote, and interact with the best videos out there on the web. Post it here, and share it with the large community of video-interested users. And - you are guaranteed to find more very good videos here already!
  Mind you, we only share videos you discover that someone else has made; if you "self link," by posting a video you have made, have posted or have interests in, you risk the ban hammer - read the posting guidelines before posting. The sift is NOT for promoting your own videos - it is for sharing videos others have made.

YouTube Description:

Making custom metal parts can save you a lot of money but it's very rewarding in a strangely primeval way. If you don't love building, don't build big.See our website for more details: http://www.svseeker.com/casting_furnaces.htm

I'm slowly working my way through the videos they've published; they seem to be building a fairly large steel-hulled boat by themselves, from the keel up. It's long, but very interesting.

That's pretty cool

It looks like it would have saved them some grief if they had a checklist.

Seems so simple and easy.

Ha. Something I really liked about this video is that it's not edited to gloss over the issues experienced by an amateur (even an experienced one). I also enjoyed watching them deal with mistakes that would have caused me to swear a bunch and then quit for the day.

Seems so simple and easy.

"Do not attempt this at home.

Unless you want to.

It's your home"
