Glad you enjoyed it

Thank you so much!

Thanks, it definitely does get hard to not cut corners when you can see the finish line getting closer!

Thank you! Cheers!

Thank you very much!

Thank you!

Thanks! This really was a long one, I had to look back at the dates on the footage but it started in January and went until mid March, definitely my longest running project!

Thanks!

Thank you!

Ha, bad timing, I actually just bought a domino and a couple other Festool tools!

Thanks, I'm keeping in touch with the customer so I can see just how well these pieces perform over time!

Thank you, this is definitely one of those project I make sure to show off to potential customers as kinda a highlight of what I have to offer!

It took me a while to put it together but I'm glad to finally close the book on this project, and I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you very much!

Thank you so much!

Thanks a lot!

Thanks, I'm glad you liked the edit, it was definitely a challenge to compress 3 months work into a video that still made sense!

Thank you very much!

Thank you!

Thank you very much!

Thank you and enjoy the early stages of woodworking this is when you get to learn alot and every new technique is so exciting!

Thank you kindly!

Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you! I've looked up to both of them for a while now so I'm glad to hear their influence has been rubbing off on me!

Glad you like it!

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Mind numbing more like it! So may pieces...

If I was doing this project again I would definitely do it that way, I liked the idea of the through dovetails because it shows off the joinery but it made for some less clean looking joints.

A Pantorouter is high on my list of potential tool upgrades!

I'm pretty cautious when it comes the amount of dust I breath in, I have an air filter that I use constantly and whenever I'm using a tool that doesn't have adequate dust collection I wear my mask. I know the shop looks dusty but the bigger stuff that sits on the floor really isn't a problem, I take care to keep the air clean.

@@morganhurst_redridge glad to know that ☺️ Just wanted to drop in a word of caution from a concerned fan 😊 Cheers and keep up the good work!

Thank you very much!

I gave them a pretty good deal compared to the local fine furniture stores, and they were very flexible on the timeline. Overall they great to work with, lead to making a bed frame later on too!

Thanks!

My first handplane was the Veritas low angle jack, and that's what you'll see in most of my early video. I just bought what was easily available and I read alot of good reviews about it. I do like having the different blade angles as an option but now that I've started to use standard angle planes, I much prefer the feel of them over my low angle jack.

By adding those mechanical slides, it actually increased the value to the customer because while traditional drawers can work well these mechanical soft close slides make the dresses easier to use.

@@morganhurst_redridge thanks for taking the time to reply, most don't. earned yourself a new subscriber. i will not debate the ease of use, it's personal preference i guess. though i will argue that a quality, piston fit drawer is pretty easy to use. two things bug me about mechanical drawer slides in custom, high end furniture. 1. they tend to rack the drawer a bit if you don't close exactly on center (saw that in a few of your shots too), and 2. something about wood and metal just does not appeal to me. all that above notwithstanding, this is a beautifully designed and built set. there's a reason the customers love it, it's gorgeous and very well made. what's not to love. should last them a lifetime (minus the slides ;).

Thanks!

I made the choice with the drawer slides, especially at this price point the expectation from my point of view is that the drawers should always open and close smoothly. With the mechanical slides, the weight of what's in the drawer doesn't affect how easy it is to open like with a traditional setup. As a woodworker I appreciate the quality of traditional drawers and I use them alot on projects for myself but I was worried that my customer would find them clunky or heavy, that's why I went with the mechanical ones. Cherry and maple is coming very soon to the channel, it's a great looking combination and I excited to work with it!

The $15,000 was the total project cost, I gave my customer a decent discount too since I'm still pretty new to woodworking and I want the project mostly for the experience (and videos!)

So that's what I felt yesterday, my destruction, I thought it was just allergies! Thanks for the laugh and thanks for watching!

I mostly go through Pinterest to find ideas and I have a few books with shaker and craftsman furniture that I really like. Then I try combine all the different design elements I like from different pieces of furniture into something I think looks cool! Here's a video I did a little while back talking about this, just about different place to find inspiration for designs. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hdGGptunyM6Yho0.html

The $15k was the final cost to my customer which consists of my time, shop time, materials and hardware.

Thanks but don't watch too many of my videos, the push stick I usually use is exactly like you described. I actually really hate the Gripper block because it usually doesn't grip the wood, and it has led to way more near miss accidents than the birds mouth style ever has.

I got the Powermatic at a stupidly good price off Kijiji, never would've bought something that nice at full price! Main reason I haven't upgraded my main machines is I don't need to at the moment, they both work perfectly for what I need also I'm limited in my power specs. Without doing major work,like ripping up the back yard , I can't get 220v out to the shop. My plan is to save up for a good 12" jointer for when I do have a shop where I can use 220v. For your videos, best thing is to start by editing them yourself. You'll learn pretty quickly what works and what doesn't and how best to record and what style you want to make your videos in order to make the editing easier. I've edited all my videos since the beginning and I don't plan to try and get an editor until I can easily afford to pay someone, probably around 100,000 subs.

@@morganhurst_redridge well I'm rooting for you brother. Fortunately, I have a washer and dryer outlet in my garage, so the 220v wasn't an issue. I'm about to upgrade to some grizzly monsters anyhow, so I'd give you my jjp-12 if you didn't have to go rewiring everything in your shop (and also lived in DfW since its 700lbs). Greatly appreciate the advice. I'll shoot you a link to my first video when I get one punched out in 2023.

@@colinchesbrough5772 Sounds good, looking forward to it!

Hopefully! I'm just afraid of one day when I'm an old man stumbling upon a video of some DIY'er covering them in paint!

@@morganhurst_redridge ha, well…hopefully they’ll see the quality and not paint them.

I would try to explain the numbers, but you're clearly not a woodworker so they probably wouldn't make sense anyway.

Those videos will still be coming out, I'm just very limited on time right now so doing the smaller ones let's me continue to put out content between those big videos.

That $15K was the total cost to my customer, I did give them a decent discount because I'm still fairly new to woodworking and I really wanted this project for the experience! I knew with the scale of this project there would be alot to learn and I didn't have a good way to estimate the time so I made a rough estimate and it turned out pretty good. If I remember currently the materials cost around $8k, then the other $7k went towards shop expense and my time, given that this project took about a month and a half it wasn't great pay but I learned so much and it was an awesome experience!

Thank you, I appreciate that!

This is the most out of context comment I've gotten in a while, can you elaborate on what is or was ruined?

@@morganhurst_redridgeit was almost perfect. Made in the ancient way. Then you broke my heart. You know what you did, and I want you to think about how many people you hurt. Now, go to your room. No iPhone or iPad for you tonight.
