Mikes Electric Stuff is one of my absolute favourite channels on YouTube. Highly recommend. A couple of classics: Heavily modified BBC Micro: ▶ this video Design of LED sculpture with some interesting commentary: link
I dig the guy much better than David Jones ( EEVBlog ). Here is Mike's BBC micro : ▶ this video Great stuff.
If you can stand the video format, this one is unusually rewarding for being a youtube channel: link I started with this one: ▶ this video "My old BBC Micro system" ... which kind of established his credibilities in my mind, and then I just kept going, devouring his entire channel. Recommended - this guy knows his stuff, and unlike certain other youtube channels in this genre there is no annoying bravado.
