Grain Growth - Professor Dave Explains - Highly Technical
Welcome! I have a knack for explaining stuff and I want to share some knowledge with you. I received a BA in chemistry from Carleton College, and performed graduate studies in both synthetic organic chemistry and science education at Cal State Northridge, receiving an MA in the latter. Prior to this I taught for about a decade in various high school and undergraduate settings, specializing in organic chemistry but also teaching general chemistry, physics, and biology. This channel is for students at the high school and undergraduate level, but it is also for members of the general public who just want to know more about the world and how things work. My goal is to increase science literacy in our society, so please share these tutorials with anyone that you think might enjoy them. Happy learning!

Wood finishing - wow, it's a big topic and there's a lot to learn. And that's why we have this video channel. Most often our videos are on wood finishing tips and tricks specific to a type of wood. Hopefully you'll find them useful and informative for helping you get the best finish you possibly can in your woodworking projects. We're a retailer of hardwood lumber like cherry, red oak, walnut and all your favorite exotics like purple heart, zebrawood and about 90 others.
