WOW Joe, that's beautiful & I know your wife & your father in law, when you get his made, will love it, which I'm sure as you was making it she was watching every move. Please tell me on way or another if she knew about it or did she not know? If not & it was a surprise gift, I know she loved it. You did a wonderful job on it. Plus it means so much more when someone, you, takes the time to make something special for someone you love & care about. I know I do. Plus you put so many special touches to it. You just amaze me everytime you do a video. You my friend have a special gift that a lot of people would love to have. Don't say they to can do it, bc theres a lot of people who really can't do some of the things, can't think for themselves, you do. I know if I put all my energy into something, I can do it but I don't have the patience for sure, nor do I have the money for tools to accomplish the things I need to do it with. Your got a small fortune in those tools, yes I know it took a lot of time to get those tools, just like my husband took 30 Plus years to get his automobile tools built up. It's like your weight. You didn't just wake up fat, it took years to get there.... lol... Oh you know me I had to throw a joke in here some where & that was a good one I have to say. But it's true, think about it for a minute. It took years/or sponsors to get them tools & it's hard work to acomplish what you've done for years & I'm not going to mention how many years it takes to learn all these skills you use & how many times you've failed to get it just right & you lean as you go. If a person quits learning, then there going to fail @ their craft everytime. Bc theres always new ideas 💡 that come out that are either an easier way or a new tool comes out to make what your doing way more easier. Always learning & keeping an open mind is advancing your skills. Well that went haywire quickly just to say how amazing you are @ the things & projects to do. OMG! lol....... Kept doing the things you love sweetheart, that's just a saying, sweetheart, doesn't mean anything romantic @ all, be safe & God bless you & your family, Chris from Missouri
That turned out so good! Love the personal tie-in to this project with all the elements--that's something I really enjoy about making gifts for friends and family.
Thank you! For little stuff here and there I just leave it on the bench in side. But for something like this where I’m going to run it for 10 minutes or more it just makes more sense to do it outside. Especially since my shop isn’t really conducive for a shop vac kinda system
Thank you! And yes she seems pretty happy with it….. now we gotta get that big ol trout that she lost this last summer camping trip. That fish was partly the motivation behind this project. She almost had him in the bank and right as she pulled him out of the water he popped off.
Functional and beautiful. The part where you had all the clamps on the frame- I said, "Wow, that's a lot of clamps." It looked cool, though. Looking forward to seeing it in action on the next camping trip.
Thank you! And yes about 15 of those clamps were purchased between the time I did the steam forming and the glue up. I quickly realized I was going to need a lot more for the glueing process
Greeeeeaaaate……..now you made me want to build my own fishing net!! Like I don’t have enough to do!!! 😂😂😂 That’s came out excellent!!! What a cool project! Thank you for this vid
Oh boy, you and me both?! I started December not even having any contemplation of ever making a fishing net. Then I saw a couple pics and video of others projects and I was like “dang I gotta try this”….. and I have like 20 other things that should’ve been priority over this🤦♂️😂
I had seen the pics of the net on IG. When the video notification came up, I was thinking I probably wouldnt be interested in watching, although I thought the net was really beautiful. (No offense meant at all!) However, I did watch and it was cool learning the history of the wood you used. I would have been so nervous that I would screw it up (had it been me making it) once you got the point where you routed the groove, and started drilling the holes. Great job, and Im glad I watched!
Yeah, i can’t imagine a landing net is thing searched often….I know I have never looked into how they were built until I saw Scott’s builds. But I’m really happy with the way it turned out! And thank you for checking it out too Kevin! 🙏😀
@@homesteadonomics have you ever seen a a RUclips video on how to build a fly rod with cut bamboo? I have seen it, but it will take some time and new creative tools. You do not have to report to me.🤣 Have a great day!!
A wonderful gift. Post pics on IG of your father-in-law’s net too please. I can already see your wife’s first fish in the net. BTW, Kiowa is pronounced with a long “I”. One of the tribes relocated to Oklahoma territory.
Thank you Ted! I sure will. And thank you for the Kiowa pronunciation. I knew it was probably saying it wrong but didn’t look it up. But that sounds a lot bette than my pronunciation🤦♂️😂
The net turned out really nice. The framing and handle look like it could have been made 80 years ago. I must say, I really thought the netting would have been made out of bent wood. Have good days!
Wow that's truly a work of art. The mixed woods really give it that extra wow factor. Love all collection of clamps. The router jig was brilliant. Ofcourse that's no surprise from you. LOL I myself love making templates. So much fun when you see the end result. I grew up with both my parents selling fine American crafts. They always worked in wood on the side. They mainly were jewelry designers. When they closed there business after 50 year they both continued to work in wood. Since it was so much cheaper then buying gold and silver. When they were first starting out they had permission to pick out scraps from the Martin Guitary factory dumpster. My dad still has a nice selection of super thin Brazilian Rosewood. (He and 2 other wood workers also wrote a coffee table book of sculpture Emil Milan) Nothing feels or smells like wood that's for sure! What a incredible gift.. Can't wait to see it in use. What will you come up with next? Thank you for sharing. Mark (& Teresa)
Thank you! And that’s an incredible history of your parents and their making of jewelry…. That requires real high quality care and craftsmanship! I used to work with a guy who did engraving on the side. He’s engrave and do silver/gold inlays to all sorts of things. Custom knives, fancy over/under shotguns, etc,. Extremely high level stuff… as in the knives were $5k-15k range😳 And that ability to get the high end guitar scraps…. What a deal! And the coffee table book too!? Super cool!
Great project, Joe! You know I'm in the region where your wife's family wood came from. I work with a fair amount of both types of Oak AND Chestnut. I wonder if her wood is Chestnut based on the worm holes, finished color and its appearance in the tablesaw scene--looks like the Chestnut bar top I just built. Red Oak, White Oak and Chestnut have their own unique, strong smells, so that's a way to confirm it if you want to know for sure. All the best, Andrew
You know what? It certainly could be. I’m not super knowledgeable on wood varieties. But after doing some image searches I can see what you’re talking about for sure
I agree, ever since I first saw chestnut in my wood technology class I've been impressed by it's beauty. My brother-in-laws grandmother's house is full of chestnut lumber. I was amazed when I saw it, so much so that his mother bought me a picture frame made from chestnut. I wish had a few Mbf of it stored in a shed for woodworking projects.
Great video. I can’t wait to see that in action. I think you needed a couple more clamps during your glue up. I’ve never played pickle ball but I thought about a paddle as well. Glad to see that the form is getting another go. I would think that steam bending could be addictive. Happy belated New Years and thanks for sharing.
Oh yeah….no big cats in our trout streams. But we’ve got them in our big reservoirs like lake Powell, Roosevelt, etc,. But in those cases I’d probably just grab an aluminum premade net😉
@@homesteadonomics Since we bank fish the local river we have special nets made. A local makes 4-5 of these a year. 8' 1" dia 1/4th inch wall handle, hoop of the same material, and extra heavy duty nets he sources from somewhere(ocean fishing net maybe?). He only makes them for the locals he knows. I have broken one of his on a fish that went 65 pounds. Store bought nets I used to go thru 3-4 a year... and have to get down in the mud to use it.
It’s definitely not a need so much for us either, as we’ve been fishing for years without one. But my wife has enjoyed fishing more and more over the years and this past camping trip she lost a couple big guys right when she tried to land them on the bank…. So that’s kinda where the net will see the biggest benefit
Ooooo….I actually have no idea 🤷♂️😂. For most of our small stream trout fishing it wouldn’t matter. But I do plan to build a canoe and do some bigger water trips so that would be a plus if it did. I’m pretty sure it would though.
Awesome job. How deep did you go with the V-bit for the channel? Nice work around without the specialized slot bit. What I love about all of the videos is you can pick up a tip from almost everyone. You used the aluminum for the form. I saw someone us a piece of ash (not glued to the net) for the same purpose to help eliminate cracking and keep the outer layer from getting marred.
Thank you. As for the depth…🤔 You know what, I’m not 100% sure…. Kind of eye balled it to where that paracord would be recessed enough to be protected from abrasions. But if I did it again I think I’d go just a hair deeper. Like maybe just barley the width of the outter lamination. But not so deep so as to show the color of the middle lamination.
It’s silicone rubber molded. Supposed to be good for catch and release as it is supposed to be easier on their skin. But I mostly got it based on the recommendation of my friend Scott.
That’d be kinda cool a hundred years from now if a descendent of mine could hold the net and watch the video of it. Of course these videos may not play in their hologram machines or whatever they have by that time🤔😂
We fish mostly small high mountain streams. So no worries there….but we do have some big lakes and in that case I’d likely just use a premade aluminum net😉

Thank you! And also a double thank you for all of the tips I gained from watching your net build🙏😀
Fishing net yeah
Very nice gift for your wife! Loved the shirt in the opening scenes.
Thank you! And thank you 🙏 ( 👨🏻🚒 4 🇺🇸 )
That was not only a utilitarian item. Its a freak-n piece of art. Thanks for sharing your craftsmanship.
There is nothing like a hand crafted gift. You did such great job making that fishing net.
Thank you Adela! 🙏😀
Very clever idea moving the sanding machine outside! Lol, The best ideas are always the most obvious.
Thank you! For little stuff here and there I just leave it on the bench in side. But for something like this where I’m going to run it for 10 minutes or more it just makes more sense to do it outside. Especially since my shop isn’t really conducive for a shop vac kinda system
As someone who loves to fish, all I can say is WOW! Great job! I caught the glue heart you made 😄Makes the present all the more special!
Haha….you’re are the first to notice the heart!!!! 😀👍
That's a work of art Joe. Well done!
How's Joe's brother Jason doing? Still from Wales?
Dude!!!
Very cool!
This could very well be a great side hustle, because a firefighter needs a side hustle! LOL
Haha…yes that is true!
That turned out really great! Wow! I bet your wife just loves it. And I hope it brings good luck with all her fishing trips.
Thank you! And yes she seems pretty happy with it….. now we gotta get that big ol trout that she lost this last summer camping trip. That fish was partly the motivation behind this project. She almost had him in the bank and right as she pulled him out of the water he popped off.

Thank you Sis!
Wow...you have a LOT of clamps :)
This turned out so beautiful...the purple really sets the lighter wood off very nicely!
Thank you! And yes about 15 of those clamps were purchased between the time I did the steam forming and the glue up. I quickly realized I was going to need a lot more for the glueing process
For a person who just started steam bending your work is awesome way to go I hope you fill that net full of fish
Thank you! We sure hope to give it a workout on our next camping trip! 🤞😀
Very nice! I’m sure you’re wife absolutely loves it. Can’t wait to see what you’re making for your father in law 👍🏻.
Well perhaps if I’m not rocking a scratchy throat on the next camping trip then you can see the nets in person!
@@homesteadonomics you’re on 👍🏻
Really beautiful work!
Thank you!
Glue heart was an amazing touch. When I rebuilt several items/walls in our house, I left all sorts of shapes and notes inside the walls.
I’m glad you noticed! We also left some our our framing when we built our house!
What a great job 👍 I’m sure she will love it ! Really sentimental including the family tree material .
Thank you Rick! She was super excited about it and can’t wait to use it on our next trip!
Greeeeeaaaate……..now you made me want to build my own fishing net!! Like I don’t have enough to do!!! 😂😂😂

This is really amazing - I'm sure she loved it. Wishing her many great days on the river with abundant catches!
Wow! So gorgeous, great craftsmanship! I hope we get to see some shots of it in action!
Nice work! That contrasting wood looks great.
Thanks Bruce!
I always enjoy your videos, Thanks Joe.
Thank you Harley!
What a lovely, lovely gift!! Straight from the heart! Amazing job! :)
Thank you MMx3
I am mostly impressed with your router jib. Nicely done!
Beautiful! You do such nice, no ... beautiful work!
Thank you Lynne!
you crafted a beautiful gift. thanks very much for the video.
Thank you!
Wow that turned out awesome!!!
Very fun and different project! It turned out beautiful.
Thank you Will!

Nice fishing net. I like it due to my fly fishing here in AZ. NICE project!
I also got her a tenkara fly rod so I’m excited to see her land a trout with the rod and the net. Should be on our next camping trip in a few months
@@homesteadonomics have you ever seen a a RUclips video on how to build a fly rod with cut bamboo? I have seen it, but it will take some time and new creative tools. You do not have to report to me.🤣 Have a great day!!
Great job! May many fish land there.😁👍🇺🇸
Thank you!!!!
Perfect gift idea!
Thank you!
Great project, I really enjoyed it. You could make very nice tennis rackets this way.
Thank you! And Yeah they do kind have the tennis racket look and feel for sure.
great project. Like i mentioned on IG, my steam bending experience hasn't been great but now i wanna give it another go!
That's a really nice net.
Very cool. I wish I would think of things like this.
I can copy home made furniture real well.
Thank you!
Most excellent project!! Very well done!!

I do! She’s my high school sweetheart and first girl I ever dated!
Very nice net, I would proudly use it. I actually wouldn't mind a new one because the lanyard has turned non-stretchy

Thank you! It is really pretty cool to get something bent that normally isn’t. Gives it even more heirloom kinda feel I think
Nicely done.
Nice but I have to chuckle at the baby net compared to the 6+ foot handle and a hoop and net big enough for a 50+ pound angry catfish that we use!

looks like it was made in the shop it was that good was thinking a tennis racket maybe?look good though
I wish there is a demo of seeing that at work.
There will likely be on our next camping trip😉👍
ive got a small one to catch my goldfish for cleaning the aquarium boy do they hate that
perfect!
Thank you!
I think you could've squeezed ONE more clamp on that mesquite. 🤣👊🏻
Is that Chestnut? I know that there are a lot of old houses and barns in TN built out of chestnut.
Hmmmm, not sure. But perhaps some could be.
How did you get the brass insert into the handle for a cord?
Nice !
Thank you!
Clamp champ
I had to purchase about 15 of them for just this project 😂
Perhaps I missed it, but what what material was the net?
It’s silicone rubber molded. Supposed to be good for catch and release as it is supposed to be easier on their skin. But I mostly got it based on the recommendation of my friend Scott.
An heirloom piece containing heirloom materials. There will actually be video documentation for your descendents to see when and how it was made.
That’d be kinda cool a hundred years from now if a descendent of mine could hold the net and watch the video of it. Of course these videos may not play in their hologram machines or whatever they have by that time🤔😂
Where did you get the net?
I'm gonna call Aunt Susie when i need some barnwood!
Hello what are the measurements and dimensions for the net
Are you going to Demonstrate using it?
Holy 🐄😳
Thanks for checking it out!
only 37 clamps?? Joe....cmon. I was hoping for an even 40😜
😯☺👍👍👍👌
Thank you! 🙏😀
You can use it to catch some of that illegal persons going over the border over there🤣🤣🤣
Hope she doesn’t catch any giant fish!!!
We fish mostly small high mountain streams. So no worries there….but we do have some big lakes and in that case I’d likely just use a premade aluminum net😉
Nice!
Thank you!
