Weird, I was sure that there was another channel - maybe the logo changed and that fooled me, or it was some beautiful dream. Sorry about that.

edit: Argh, I have a horrible feeling that I used to watch some copycat channel that re-uploaded his videos, which is why I thought he had several :(

There are impostor channels using similar logos and fake builds using cheap labor and concrete. They do this mostly in India in order to gain views and make ad revenue from it. Maybe you were talking about such a channel?

No, pretty sure it was the same guy - I've seen one or two of the knock-off videos, and it's not as interesting (and as you say, fake). There's mention on the wiki page for Primitive Technology that he had problems with re-uploaders.
