Are you thinking of the rob covell (i think that's his name) video's?
One was welding, one was working with tubing. You can probably find the torrents if you search the torrent sites for a while.

I usually use Torrentz.com, just go on there and search for whatever, download the torrent, and then you will just need torrent software to load the torrent file into, and it will download the full movie.

So I'm about as computer savvy as a rock.
The way I understand it is the torrent file just tells a torrent program where the file is.
So once you find the torrent file on a site like mininova.org you open it in a program like azereus (i think that's the spelling, it's the one I use) or bittorent and it downloads it.
The way torrents work is they grab bits and pieces of the file out of order from different users, and put them together. You'll need to wait for the whole thing to download before you're able to watch it.
That's they way I understand it, but honestly I just press buttons and pretty pictures come on screen, I don't really know much about software and whatever.

http://thepiratebay.org/ is an excellent search tool, also a competing website thats something like "Homexxxxtxrbo.com" has a thread with some direct links to the torrents

You prolly need a codec to watch it in MS media player, search pirates bay for 3ivx, or maybe its under k-lite codec , i forget

i always recomend some sort of virus protection b4 opening any torrent, but the one i use is the 3ivx i think and it will allow dvd/ other files to be played as i recall. Just open and run it. As i recall it should do its install and then just re-open the avi file and see if it works

I've had really good luck with VLC media player, you can get it free and it plays just about anything.
