I appreciate how despite your success and channel growth, you still are making videos like the ones that attracted me to your content initially years ago. Great work!

And this, my friends, is how real woodworking is done. This is artistry. Thank you Jon for being such an inspiration.

It's great to have a channel that focuses on building projects and not so much on tools or reviews. Great project.

Jon, the way you approach furniture making reminds me of when I apprenticed with a cabinet builder as a teen. Very practical (and stalwart) construction with thoughtful design elements. It’s very American and I just appreciate that everything doesn’t have to be dovetails and dominoes and whatever other fad techniques are floating around. Thanks for the years of encouragement and for putting your plans out there for the everyman utilize.

7:31 Yes! Little hand-held guage blocks are so key, and - I think - not obvious to a beginner.

The level of skill and experience 🤯

Great video & project. I really enjoy these longer project vids & a cup of coffee to start my weekend. Thanks Jon!

Your intro is so public broadcasting - and perfectly done!

Wonderful art as always sir! Congratulations from Chile 🇨🇱

Functional art. Beautiful.

Best instructional approach 🙏 very thorough and informative - well worth subscribing! Thank you Jon Peters

Still the absolute KING!!! Great project!

Love this design, mid century modern design really still looks awesome!

John, to complete the look, I would have veneer the top edge of the drawers to hide plywood

Great looking writing desk. That's lovely veneer--subtle but still striking.

Awesome build. Love the long form video.

Respect for still having all your fingers 💪 especially after all the years in the trade 👍

I love the simplicity and usefulness of this desk!

Un lavoro magnifico, spiegato i modo semplice.Un saluto

especially table etc. five stars to the products. Incredibly beautiful works

Very Nice Project JON.Saludes from Brazil

This is definitely a elegant looking piece. How you ran the grain direction on the drawers front is interesting to look at, but nice. And I do like the length of these instructional videos, a lot of the details would be missed.

Wow you make it look so easy..but I bet you have decades of experience and you are a born carpenter...amazing talent

Great job!

Great work sir.

Well done john.

Beautiful build, Jon~! My wife thinks that this desk would look great in our kitchen, so it looks like this will be the next plan added to my Jon Peters' plan library. 😀

Great tutorial and the table looks so great. Love the pace and quality of the video as well. I have had small pieces of veneer for years, you have inspired me to finally do a small project with them.

Hi Jon, Another great build mate. I really love the treatment you did on the legs, makes this two drawer desk really stand out. Also a perfect video tutorial as well. We have just downsized into a three bedroom unit and I can see making this desk down the track after we settle in. Thank you so much for your time and effort you put into everything you do. I very much appeciate it. Kind regards, kmdc in Oz.

I am a big fan of the leg design. Beautiful project. Thanks for sharing

Beautiful Piece!!

Stunning desk, Jon! Really amazing work and design! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

Beautiful work as usual

Absolutely beautiful design Jon the desk turned out amazing great job as always.

Great project Jon. Thumbs up.

Nice desk Jon. Thanks.

Great project, Jon, with interesting details. Now I feel bad--hope you held back at least one pipe clamp!

Nice desk really came out nice! Keep up the good work!

Nice.

Saludos al algoritmo, desde México, gran video, muchas gracias por enseñarnos y ayudarnos a mejorar

Excelente. Adoro suas peças e como faz.

Well you definitely achieved "elegant". Great build and as usual great video.

Sweet!!!!!!

Strange, I forgot all about this channel. I have not been getting notifications for you, until today.

Another great project and clear explanations. Your project is always easy to learn and follow. Just one question, why did you leave the plywood edge open in the drawer sides? That's not normally what you do.

I wish I could somehow get that desk that u made ..am no carpenter and i live very far away but i sure love that desk ❤

Hi Jon, great video! After you used the flush cut router bit on the veneer did you do anything else to the veneer edge to finish it off?

You build furniture?!?! I never knew that. Or maybe I knew & then forgot cause it's been so long😂. Nice clean lines Jon. Vertical grain was good choice. Hoping all is well, Dirty Jersey out!!

Would you ever use veneer or edge banding on top of the drawers so it looks like solid wood and hide the plys??? It’s a nice look piece but opening the draws to reveal the plys irks me.

Nice project Jon! Just curious have you ever used a dado setup for making half-lap cuts, or a bandsaw even? It would save you some time. Thanks for the video!

Beautiful desk build Jon! However, I would have edge banded the top inside edges of those draws. Not a fan of that plywood look when the draws are pulled out.

Beautiful work Justin! Thank you for your channel! I just had one question as to why you would use a more expensive maple plywood and then cover it with veneer? Wouldn't it be more cost effective for a sanded plywood if you were going to cover it? Just curious....thanks!

Why did curve on legs seem more attractive than say a straight taper? Did the four legs end up square on the floor? How about pads on the feet if you are using this on wood floors. Nice work! I appreciate how you respectfully include sponsors - recognizing the need for that in your revenue model. There is no sense in starving when your content is so good. The days of everything should be free are over. I had a digital magazine which was driven to almost zero revenue because of the subscribers unreasonable expectation of free content. Cheers!

Did you use paper backed veneer? Thanks

how much was the total cost for materials ?

👍👍👍🙏🇹🇷

Yo … you’re the pro but … with all that glue, strong plywood, and all those nails, do you really need the screws? It’s not a heavy duty desk. (Looks great btw. Nice project.)
