Hi:
This may be old news to some, but I just discovered a feature of YouTube called "Playlists". It makes watching a connected series of video segments much easier because it automatically jumps to the next segment when one is complete. If you are watching in full screen mode it stays in full screen for all the segments.

In order to simplify things I have created playlists for the videos I uploaded over the last week or two. If you want you can save these links and they will take you to the playlist for each project.

Another way to focus your searches, is to enter something like "woodturning" in the main search box. Then just above the list of results, will be two other selections "Channels" and "Playlists". Clicking both of those will bring up long lists of grouped videos.

Thank you, Bob. I just watched the no-chuck bowl series, and I learned a lot. Thanks for taking the trouble to do this.

Another tip for searching is to use the exclusion feature of the search. Just put a dash in front of a search term like "-expertvillage". And by the way excluding them eliminates a lot of videos you might not want to see. At least after viewing them once.

And I assume everyone knows that the output list can be sorted by relevance, newest, oldest, view count etc. So you can sort by newest to see what's been added recently.

Sometimes searching on "turning" or "lathe" will get woodturning videos mixed in with a lot of other stuff, the poster not having attached the right tag to his video.

You can also click on the users name and get a list of all their posted videos.
