Everything You Wanted to Know But Could Never Ask (Until Now!) - #33

Just recently I hit 400K subscribers on YouTube and to highlight this accomplishment, I asked my YouTube subscribers, "What's ONE thing you have always wanted to know, either DIY or personal?" 

And the questions started coming in (be sure to click on the Chapters to jump around to get to each Q&A!

• What's an easy first project I can do with a nail gun?
• Do you ever suffer from burnout and want to quit blogging and YouTube?
• What part of a project do you least enjoy?
• How does your husband and kids feel to have an internet star in the house?
• Who showed you how to use your first power tool?
• Is there a room makeover that you aren't happy with? Which one is your favorite so far?
• Did your first project go as planned?
• Did your husband and family support your dream to become a thrift diver?
• What lessons did you learn the hard way?
• Will you do any collaboration videos with other DIYers?
• How did you plan and set up your workshop?
