Great question! While I love Furze, if I won the lottery today, I would probably try to become a high school science teacher.
I want this to be educational and kid-friendly but mainly geared towards adult maker-types. I plan to go through the math of the pressure in the pneumatic cylinder, the bore size, and a little bit about the importance of the inertia of the system. Add some of the welding shots I have (not yet posted), I talk about oxidation and how it is different for steel and aluminum and why the direction the electrons are arcing is relevant.
That said, I will be hooking up an absolutely brutal murder contraption to the back of a toy vehicle targeted at age 3–6. So yes, Collin Furze is amazing, and I literally taught myself to TIG weld because I saw him do it so much, but I plan to make it maybe a little more science heavy without seeming stuck up about it, because science is fun!
