I like his videos.  Not sure what his background (mechanical or 
electrical engineer perhaps?) but he seems competent if irreverent. If 
you're not offended by his language, you can spend an entire weekend 
watching him disassemble and analyze tools.  Another series of youtube 
videos I really like are those by the EEvBlog guy though his are 
definitely geared towards electronics and tinkerers.  Both guys 
completely disassemble the devices they're reviewing and don't pull any 
punches when they discover shoddy workmanship.
