I'm on the cusp between being a Millenial and Gen-Z. I remember 9/11 which I think is a reasonable distinction for being a Millenial but it is one of my earlier memories. Today I let my Gen-Z shine by becoming a content creator. I posted my first video to YouTube*. But the truth is, if I had to put my videos on a generational scale from Charlie Chaplin to Troye Sivan I would put them squarely in "hey boomer, turn your phone sideways when you're filming."
My desire to create a YouTube channel is twofold. First, I've received thousands of hours of eduction from strangers through YouTube. I feel it is time for me to give back in whatever small weird way I can. Second, I'm already taking videos of most of the things I work on. I have an exceptional talent for being able to take things apart and not being able to put them back together. Recording videos helps me figure out what things looked like as they came apart. So, between feeling a debt to the person with 3 views on their video detailing how to replace the cabin air filter on a 2004 Honda Odyssey and already having videos of me doing equally obscure work I figured it was time to make a channel of my own.
These videos aren't intended to be well shot, lit, edited, or entertaining to watch. They are supposed to be easy for me to create and help someone who is in a jam trying to finish a project.
Here is my first video. It shows how to replace the secondary clutch rollers on a 2006 Arctic Cat M7 snowmobile.
*I'll be honest I don't even know if Gen-Z uses YouTube. For all I know I'm just solidifying my boomer creds.
