Puzzlers
I just wanted to mention a couple of people who make puzzle videos that I often enjoy. I don’t mean jigsaw puzzles, or paper puzzles like sudoku, but actual physical puzzles made of wood or metal.

They also do a number of sudoku-type pencil puzzles. Here’s one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUs0h3YRhaw
