I was reading another forum and this topic was brought up. I am curious as I too have been contemplating this very thing as I have been getting approached more and more lately from co-workers and friends who think I would do a good job at some instructional youtube videos.
I am proud of my work and my shop and love showing both off to friends but I worry about posting up pictures and videos for the entire world to see. I talked to several home security representatives a few years ago and they all told me the same thing, that is, statistically a robbery is performed by someone who has been on the premises, in the home or in the shop. Randoms happen but not as often as you would think.
With that rationale, I would think I would be more likely to be robbed by someone who I did some work for vs. someone who merely saw my shop on a forum or on a youtube video.
I did a search and could not come up with a thread where this was discussed in detail, merely thought and opinions mixed in with multiple non-related threads.
I thought I would throw this up for no other reason than to get a dialogue going and have some open feedback/discussion.
I am curious as to what others feel on the subject.
Do you worry that if you post up pictures and/or videos of your home workshop you will be more likely to get robbed or are you not worried about that risk/chance?
Let's here from anyone who has thoughts or opinions on the matter.
Thanks.
Mike.
