The best part of this channel is he shows us the mistakes he makes. Which is comforting to the rest of us who are novices.
Instructionals without ego are an absolute blessing and the fastest way to actually get young people interested. Thank you.
A lot of people don't finish that quote. The whole quote goes like this. "A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one." Just something to think about.
Honesty in YouTube is rare . Thank you .
If I were a betting man, I'd say that most viewers are the same type of weekend warrior that you and I are. True depiction of how many of my project usually go. Love the honesty. I'm sure that most other videos had their mistakes edited out of the final video. Truth is king. Keep up the videos brother.
Love the fact that you are genuine, humble and down-to-earth. Very funny and entertaining as well as informative. Thanks.
I appreciate the fact that you show your mistakes and how you correct them. This is encouraging for beginning woodworkers. There are no mistakes. They are either learning experiences or features.
This was the most brutally painful build I've ever witnessed and I salute you, fully. And the sheer reckless chutzpah of using OSB - OMG! All that wood dust and wood chips from something made of wood dust and wood chips, I feel I need to break out the wet/dry vac in my office just from having watched this. Great video. Thank you.
I came for the woodworking...I stayed for the sense of humor...Thanks for sharing all your mistakes. Inspired me to go make some myself
“Constantly overestimating my skill level“ 😂 this whole video is so relatable!
Being older than you, I have not only made the same mistakes as you so honestly show, but I have also expanded the suite. thank you for making me feel included in an eager but imperfect cabal.
Watching your video left me feeling really good. Now I know I am NOT the worse WOOD BUTCHER in the world. Thanks!!!
I am newly retired and decided to make a wood workshop in my garage. I have never done woodwo I am newly retired and decided to make a wood workshop in my garage. I have never done woodworking, but with my father under hospice care, the 4 months of YouTube videos seems to have calmed me. I am about 70% done clearing out the overstuffed garage and temporarily storing everything in the back yard (hoping it doesn’t rain). I watched your YouTube video early Sunday morning and laughed at myself through your insight. I haven’t even started my woodworking yet, but can see myself in many situations as I go through the next year. Thank you for your humor and reminding me to enjoy the ride. : )
As a total newb, I appreciate that you shared your mistakes and how you fixed them. Watching you build this without a gazillion dollars worth of fancy tools and machines gives me hope that I can accomplish projects like this now and not need to take out a second mortgage. Yes, I can relate to how you work and I find that encouraging.
The struggle — limited skills + limited budget — is real. Thanks for keeping it that way.
This is the type of content DIY YouTube needs, but doesn’t deserve. You, my friend, are the hero of this genre
I love that you show errors and do overs. That’s more realistic to me and way more relatable. Thank you for that and all your ideas.
Simce this is the first truly relatable woodworking channel I've ever found, I'll leave a quick tip for the woodworking skill-impaired amongst us (me included): If you use old plastic fridge drawers, you don't even have to build the drawers, just the rest of the cabinet. It's ugly, but it's shop furniture.
Honesty in production. It's a breath of fresh air to compare my skills to a regular woodworker, not one that never shows mistakes. Like they say, "You are only seeing everyone's highlights reel." But you, sir, are as real as I have seen. Definitely subscribing.
