Awesome job! Walnut is my absolute favorite hardwood and you did it proud!

I never realized how big your shop was. The layout looks great!

Awesome project. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the kitchen build and final install. A kitchen of that quality is a very rare item in NZ. They are lucky they found you for the job!

Wow, as always, fantastic craftsmanship and design. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the build. Thank you for these videos, they are a must see. 👍🏻

Wow! I learn such a lot from watching your videos - thank you so much, Joey! Best aye.

Man what a fantastic job, it looks great, i am envious of how easy you make things look, looking forward to seeing the rest of the build many thanks 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Прекрасно, один из не многих столов столов которые очень гармонично впишуться в любой интерьер!!!

That finish looks SO smooth, like a 3D rendered image of the actual piece!

You are a spectacular craftsman. If I could live near you I'd come work at your shop for free just so I could watch and learn.

When that first coat went on the top, the grain just popped. Beautiful timnber

This is amazing. Nice build

Wow this is beautiful Joey. Can’t wait so see the whole kitchen in place.

what a lovely kitchen island, beautiful rich colour.

Really great Joe, fantastic craftsmanship and design. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the build

Magnifique! Especially like how you matched the pieces in the top. What a workout too. Thanks for the vid. Cheers, David.

Great video. I really like your saw setup

Man hats off!!! Beautiful!!!

One of the most beautiful pieces I have seen! Great work!

Very nice build and a serious workout with all that planing.

That's a behemoth island for an extra exceptional kitchen...👌 Impressive skill set, man 👍 Sweet as. 👌

Awesome video Joey I always look forward to them. And it's cool seeing all the nz tools and products you use

Love that you scraped the top. Sandpaper will never offer the clarity of of a planed or scraped finish. I scrape whenever possible! Some time I intend to grab a lie-Nielsen scraper plane and up that a little more.

Incredible piece. Extremely impressive, congratulations

Looks really good. I'm in the designing process of mine but Im going with walnut plywood for the carcass to get the grain and color consistency. That stained pine would drive me crazy. I'm also doing solid wood drawers with half-blind dovetails. Your vid was a good inspiration. Best island I've seen so far.

Another amazing build. Look forward to seeing more outstanding work. Thankyou.

Beautiful! Nice design and the top is simply elegant.

Beautiful. You do great work Joey.

That’s an amazing kitchen island.

Amazing work as always Joey, if that's the island I can imagine how great all the fittings will look when it's completed. Looking forward to that overview. Wish I was living nearby man, pleasure to watch you work..

Looks awesome and what a huge kitchen this is to fit such a beautiful piece. Can’t wait to see what next for this build. Take Care.

Joey, great island. I really liked how and why you used the various hand planes to flatten the top (educational for me). Beautiful piece, looking forward to seeing more of this build!!

As always, fantastic job and beautiful result. You astonish and impress me every time. 👍

That thing is huge. It would probably take up my whole workshop haha. Great build!

Joey, you are too good for words! Lucky kitchen.

Master craftsman. Truly a piece of art.

Wow! What a beauty. Love your work Joey.

Love your stuff Joey. Always a quality design and beautiful execution.

Nice craftsmanship, great job.

Hell yeah looks awsome can't wait to see the rest of the job like always great work

So incredible. As usual your stuff is fantastic

You have done some amazing stuff in the past Joey, but I think this is the best yet. I particularly like the way you have done the skirting. And don't bother going to the Gym for a week, I think you got it all in flattening the top. Man is that a big kitchen if this is only part of it.

Great build! It looks stunning. I kinda liked how the rough unfinished Walnut looked, the greyish look it has is nice aswell xD.

Wow, That's an ocean of walnut! Great job!

Wow . . . what a mammoth job, beautiful work. Cheers . . .

You've done it again mate. Awesome

Awesome work.

Awesome work as usual 👌👌👌👌

Nice one! neat tip about fitting the skirting, thanks for sharing!

Beautiful! Joey I’ve watched all you’re stuff IMO this is the most impressive work so far. That is some beautiful walnut. I am SO jealous of the Hammer........

Great work as with all your projects, thank you

Bloody awesome mate!!!!!👍👍

Great work Joey, good to see.

Great job 👍

Really great Joe. Thoroughly enjoyed that.

Love your videos! Keep them coming, you do amazing work.

Really impressive. Great work!

Damn that top is massive! So good

Wow that's a house in it's self. Looks great.

Awesome job Joey, I'm keen to see the island sitting in place with the rest of the kitchen. Sounds like it is going to be a pretty flashy kitchen!

Very nice job. I love theses type of islands

thats one awesome piece of furniture luv it 👍

I wish you had showed us how to set up the router for the different passes to get the skirting/moulding@6:39. Many thanks for the great videos.

That is going to be one impressive looking kitchen!

tremendous looking piece Joey - nice work fella

Beautiful wood, excellent work.

beautiful work beautiful piece...

Beautiful Job!! 👏

Great job, Joey! You're good, man, very good!

Прекрасная работа!

Great video thanks for sharing 👍🇬🇧

Great piece. Await the full more detailed video

Love it bro. Well done man!

Well done, Sir!

Pretty frikin' nice Joey, as expected!

Top notch stuff, as always!

Love your work bro

Looks awesome mate 👌🏻

Nice work Joey. I hope some butcher of a plumber doesn't come along and try and fit taps and a sink Chris

Excelente!!!! Gran trabajo, saludos

Looks amazing

Aye! My elbows and thumbs ache just watching you plane and scrape.

Looks great! ...oh, and plastic drinking straw for inside corner glue squeeze out. ;-)

Absolutely Beautiful

Wow, nice job.

Красиво и очень качественно.

Lovely .

That looks amazing

Good job my friend

Looks great must a huge house with matching bank balance

Absolutely stunning work. I am a bit surprised that with all attention to detail and just over the top woodworking that you used Minwax poly. I expected some spray on laquer or nitro cellulose. I love the look and you did a top notch job. Just wonder how long Minwax will hold up. That being said I noticed you can take it apart fairly easily so if it is homeless I could make room in my kitchen. That is the kind of guy I am. Always looking out for others.

Nice work as usual. Just refinished a walnut kitchen Island a little smaller than that one.

That must have cost a fortune! Beautiful work!

I'm just sad that I can only give you one like! 😂 Looks awesome!

Good working
