This Will CHANGE How You Build!

Hands down best project video I've seen. Chocked full of useful tips and details. Yet concise without glossing over. Thank you.

I’ve just watched two of your videos and I think I’ve learned more great little tips and tricks from you than I have in 10 hours of other videos. I love your method of breaking things down and your clear and concise communication. And you don’t shy away from showing us your mistakes and how you fix them (I know I always have plenty of those 😂). Thanks so much!

I don’t think I have ever built a bigger project without some hiccups that’s what definitely teaches us to adapt and overcome. It’s absolutely beautiful. You did a very nice job!

As a computer programmer, I have long known to continue breaking down large problems into smaller manageable tasks and steps. Yet I failed to apply this to my woodworking, so I very often limited myself to smaller projects where I could hold the entire task in my mind. I have started analyzing and planning wood projects as I do programming projects, and now have complete confidence in taking on bigger projects. With every step written down, I always know what to do next, and can schedule subtasks as I have the time or materials ready.

I throughly enjoyed watching this video. Your sense of design is great. Love the finish you applied. My husband was a woodworker and we often watched woodworking instruction- starting with Bob Villa back in the day of television and PBS. You are a fantastic teacher and I rate you with the best. Your voice is calm, your editing skills are great, overall , from a non- woodworking observer- you knocked this video ‘out of the park!

Terrific - a compilation of shop gems, presented in a way that's entertaining but without any BS. Nicely done!

Your teaching style made this vid along with strong attention to detail and point outs. As a retired toolmaker I can reflect, one thing I'd like to add. . .If your having a BAD day remember safety first. . . .walk away . . .shit happens, and having it happen around machinery well lets say it goes south fast. Stay safe . . . .looking forward I have subscribed . . . I'm a fan

When using caul clamps or just plain cauls, I always put nonstick (paper that will not stick to glue) to prevent the cauls or clamps from sticking to the wood panel (or whatever). This is a big time saver: no messy dried glue on my cauls / clamps to clean. Great video...

The mark of an experienced woodworker is in addressing and hiding mistakes....

I really enjoyed watching this video. I love woodworking and recently purchased a saw mill and now have access to a ton of hard woods but lack the real skill to build things. I think videos like this one are going to be a game changer for me. Thank you for putting it together...lol

I watched your entire video from start to finish. Learned a lot. Admired your skills as a woodworker and as a video producer. As I began to feel worthless as a human being I remembered your title that said it took years to learn your skills. That gave me hope as a beginner woodworker. Thank you!

Awesome video John. Some great information here. Especially the breaking down large complicated pieces into smaller easier to accomplish tasks. Appreciate all the great tips. Ohhh and the finished piece was amazing as well. Thank for sharing. Hope you have a great day!

Nothing short of "AMAZING"!!! Really beautiful piece and the tips and instructions are off the chart!

Thank You for sharing!

Fine job, great build. Really appreciate you taking your time to share your experience.

Very well done ! You're videos have come a long way from the first ones I stumbled upon a year or two ago.
