🔨renovation channels that actually show what went wrong
if the video only has the clean reveal, i don't trust the rest of it

1
Scott Wadsworth builds the way his father did. When something fails on the main channel he says so on camera instead of cutting it
2
EC2 (Essential Craftsman's second channel)
labeled for the fails and half-finished experiments that don't make the main channel. more honest than most main channels, ironically
3
Wilker Do's (April Wilkerson)
narrates the wrong cut and the redo in the same video instead of hiding it in an end-of-video blooper reel
4
measure twice, they say, and still mess it up on camera sometimes. the builds keep the re-cuts in
5
The Build Show (Matt Risinger)
more technical, less folksy. will show a wall assembly that failed inspection and explain why instead of skipping to the fixed version
6
Perkins Builder Brothers
two brothers, smaller jobs, they leave in the part where the tile doesn't line up. a few (rental-friendly) projects mixed in too
7
