View ChannelAbout
I started The Excellent Laborer channel as a way to document my journey of building houses on my own. I have been in the construction field for 20+ years and have worked with various companies, learning the skills needed to start building my own homes and acting as my own contractor. I wanted to share my knowledge with others who are interested in learning about construction and enlighten my viewers on various DIY projects. The channel has been a great success, and I have received a lot of positive feedback from viewers. I am always looking for new ways to improve the channel and provide value for my viewers. I appreciate your support and look forward to continuing to grow the channel in the future. Thanks for watching! So, what are you waiting for? See the progress of future projects by subscribing to my channel today! With over 12 million video views total and growing every day - there is no better time than now.
