You are the only one I've found that is so detailed about your projects. Everyone else will leave out something small which makes it impossible to make the project. Thank you!

Appreciate woodworkers who build with tools that are more "real world" and affordable versus the sort of shops outfitted with tools that most folks could never afford. Also like that you leave in your mistakes and how you remedy the mistakes as this is where many if not most of us actually live. Thanks.

Star, first. Love it!

I love how basic you keep the tools when building these. It is incredibly refreshing for people like me who are juat learning.

The red & gold star adds a lot to the tree vs a solid color.

Beautiful star I like with out the red. Great job on design

Watch star video first . Moving to tree video . I like plain star the best . Great video . Thanks

Like the natural look for both the tree and star. The tree video led me to the star video. Nice pairing!

I like the plain wood look, without the paint.

Thank you so much for your very informative video 👍🏼

Tree video first. I prefer rhe painted star. Thr red contrast looks great. And im sure my saw goes nowhere near 54 degrees, maybe its time for an upgrade 😁

Andy, I watched the tree video first, and then this one. Now I'm headed out to the shop to see what damage I can do. Thanks for Sharing!

Tree first I'm sure you know, you can use any R2 (Robinson/ square drive) bit to drive those kreg screws. Shorty bit for those easy to reach projects ! My 20 year old Hitachi doesn't provide the cut capability that most modern saws have. I use a jig for extreme angles, or just use my table saw with a ripping jig. I prefer the table saw ripping jig to be honest. I hope you're Andy when you wake up, sounded like you were done with him there at the end, "I have been Andy" LOL Thanks for the inspiration!

Trees video first! Love the star and the tree. Looking forward to trying to make a couple for my front lawn.

Great video! I have been looking for projects for a bunch of scrap wood I have!

Tree First. I like both styles. The painted ones add attention grabbing highlights which would be better outdoors.

I like the red edged star best really cool idea

Saw this one first, weirdly I've already been building these but love to watch for tips and tricks. The way you make it is so much more convenient, that trick of measuring to 11 splitting and then shaping is a so simple I would have never come up with that without seeing it!

Both stars look nice, but I personally would go for a solid color or maybe just varnish.

The red star looks great with the red tree. Alone a different color would be nice. But I like the idea of highlighting it.

Tree first, nice way to do the stars

I watched the tree first. I think I like the painted tree with the plain star best, but I'm going to make both. Thanks for sharing!

Andy I love these spiral trees! Thank You so much for your tutorials. They are so well done. I’ll be making some of these for gifts for my friends and family. Love love the Red White Candy Cane Tree, and I love how you used the sap wood to accent the spirals on the Natural tree. They are both beautiful. Happy Holidays from Austin, Cedar Creek, Texas.

I appreciate the step by step instructions as someone who is trying to learn

Made one today, came out superb thanks to this 👌🙏👍

Tree first, red & gold. The chamfer really makes the whole thing pop and look more finished. I think I would chamfer the tree front pieces as well 😀

I really like the red and white with the gold star. Straight forward assembly. Good Job!

Painted & Gold

ALL the color combinations look good. 👍👍

Great video. I saw this one first. Will need to find the tree video. I like the idea of a video showing how to make sure the mitre saw is calibrated correctly.

Love the pocket screw idea ! Genius.

I saw he tree 🌲 first !!!! Thank you for what you do, it’s so great

I like the gold and red.

I like the stars and waited until I made some to post. Great looking and sturdy. Easy step by step. Thank you.

Red and gold are sweet great build!!

I really like the painted one

You're my Hero! I can watch you (wish I could help you) all day long. Love your ideals and handy dandy projects!

Great project. My wife has asked for a wooden Christmas tree for decor. I really enjoy this one along with the star. Thank you. Blessings

I’m sticking with the holiday season theme. Great video! Need to head out for dog ears and start my project. 👍🏽

I like the star video it’s simple and easy to understand and the tree video that the star is on will be trying my hand at building both the painted trees really enhance the spiral effect good job on both.

Well done man. I saw the tree video first from a link on FB. I definitely love projects like this and I hope to build my own. Thanks for the instructional videos.

Awesome job Andy!! Love them both!! Both trees and both videos! Awesome job! I have been building and selling the 2x4 trees you did a couple videos back. I have sold 4 sets of 3 trees and 1 single tree

I like the painted one

Terrific videos.The tree first. As I will make these, the painted version will be my choice since it will be displayed outside with a spot light on it. Thanks again.

Thanks for the video

Star video first. Definitely red and gold. Nice project. I have the same saw and definitely have some scrap laying around. I'll try this out. Thanks.

Saw the tree first and I like the painted ones

I like the painted tree and the star with the gold and painted edging.

I like both. Thank you

this was awesome!! really broke it down simple for us!

Looking great! I like the natural wood look but sometimes a nice grey wash works well too. Cheers!

Star first!

I like both colours. I saw the tree video first

you are a very good teacher

Andy I saw the star first but I like all your videos Phillip your friend from Dublin georgia.

I watched the tree video first. I like the painted star for the tree.🌲 Happy Holidays

Star first, plain. Love this video and the tree made from stacked 1 X 10.

Andy your awesome watched the star first like both painted and un painted fixing to watch the Christmas tree one now

Looking forward to the tuning video I have the exact same miter saw

Either or, they both look great!

Like the red and gold

I like it! I’m going to make this with my tree. If I have the patience. lol starting with the tree first. Lol

This video.. I like the painted star..

I like them both.

Star video first. Great build. I like the painted star.

Really like that you left the "Happy Mistakes" in!

As small as that gap is, it may just be a bit of deflection and not a mis-calibrated saw. I have to be real careful with my sliding miter saw and try to lock the slide whenever possible. Oh, star first. It is 8 months before Christmas so, yeah, star first. :)

liking both of them

Great ideas - thanks

Both are excellent.

I liked the painted one.... I did make 30 of your 5-minute tree. they only took me about 20 minutes each after sanding and painting..

I like the plain star

Watched the tree first. The star with the red would be great against the red stripes and natural background tree. Just my thoughts. Another great video.

Tree first. Awesome thank you

I loved

I like how the red makes it stand out more but they are both great.😊

I really like the plain star and tree. My husband has a bunch of barn boards, maybe he can make a tree out of those? I saw the tree video first. Looking forward to seeing more videos and ideas.

Painted star is cool

KZfaq keeps recommending woodworking Christmas videos to me. So far this is the first star that I've seen and I really like it. I will definitely try to make it. I don't have a sliding miter saw, just a fixed miter saw, but the cuts are pretty simple, so I don't think it will be a problem. I personally don't prefer the way you painted that one star. I think it would look better if the inner lines were thinner, which would require the chamfer to be probably half the thickness that you did, but the style is nice. Edit: The more I think about it; I think just not having the inner red lines at all would look best to me, keep the chamfers the way they are, they should add a nice shadow, but only paint the outer lines of the star.

Love the videos. No need for the music, it distracts from your tutorials. Nice tree, nuce stars. Thank you.

I liked the unpainted best. Good job

Tree video first. Great star video

Natural star. Off to try and build a 🌲.

Star first. I’d love to see you make a bevel cut on each of the star sections.

Tree video first. I prefer the unfinished version or it would look great with a stain or burn with stain.

Love both star and tree

ive seen the chrismas tree video and with the start the red out line is good. with both videos very nice work

Great video and tutorial

I like the wood color myself. Made my first star today out of 1x6 pine. Came out ok. Saw is a little off still also.

I watched the tree video first. I’m not sure which star I like better but they are beautiful. Good job

I did see the Christmas tree video first. I prefer the gold and red stars. I enjoy your videos, keep 'em coming.

Awesome build saw the tree 1st

good video well presented and i will be doing a few of these

I love them all

Like the plain wood star! I'm going to try. Do you use digital angle finder to make sure miter saw is at correct angle?

Love this video

I’m gonna try it

Tree first, both styles are awesome. They each have their own magical characteristics. I am going to give them a go. Thanks for sharing. 12:12 12:18 12:19

Saw the tree video first, both trees look great. I'm really liking the painted star, makes it really pop. Did you free hand paint it?
