Does Look Mum No Computer count?

Absolutely. Analog is retro. That's low tech for sure.

Does solar.lowtechmagazine.com count? Or is that just considered standard reading on slrpnk.net?

Cody's Lab. Not specifically low tech but there are hundreds of videos of him mining, making greenhouses, and beekeeping

Low-Tech Magazine shows up on here occasionally, I've enjoyed their articles.

I'd also recommend Kris Harbour Natural Building on YouTube.

Primitive Technology.

Primitive Technology, the channel that inspired all those faked terrible "building stuff in the woods" channels, but the original is really good.

Anyone watch attoparsec on YouTube?

I saw him at open sauce last year, and got to type out a tweet using his typesetter's keyboard:

Cheers for mentioning this, that shit is right up my alley! :D

Yeah, he's got some dope stuff, and seemed nice. He made a fuse-triggered mechanical thumper from Dune. This was before the movie, so I don't know how it compares, but it's quite clever.
