It's videos like this that make me love working with wood so much. I'm just a beginner, and just getting my tools collected, but man it's going to be so satisfying with results like these. The music is just an added bonus. Subscribed. Genuinely love this.
Well I hope you guys also made some push sticks after this, because you got a high stakes finger lottery going on in the video. None the less a great looking mug.
I expected you to make 2 mugs in 1 and to then cut the piece in half, like you do then you make a box with a lid. Thanks for making this entertaining video. Personally, I think that the people complaining about the price of these mugs, they have no clue how much time goes in making a product. Haters will always be haters. Keep up the good work and share more projects.
I've got one of these mugs, and they're absolutely worth the price. Excellent craftsmanship and it's easily become my favourite mug. I've actually been considering getting another one. One of the really expensive ones made from bog oak. :D
Reminds me the technique used to make little barrel-shaped penholder from wooden clothespin when I was in firste grade... right in the feelings... thank you!
+Deric Kettel Just cut the cloth-backed sandpaper into strips, drill a hole on one end and line them up on a screw with a washer and nut. Simple and effective;)
Hi David, thank you, since we currently use MIG process, it's a bit difficult to grind flush the weld on the inside. It does not affect sturdiness of the handle, but we will upgrade hopefully soon for aesthetics ;) Thanks for comment :)
Very interesting! I recently received a set similar to these that my German born great-great grand father made. They are beautiful, he was a pattern maker and as I understand very talented and helped design some intricate devices. Anyway, the banding he used appears to be strap strap and it is broken and soldered in places, I going to guess from the wood expanding from humidity or moisture, as the finish is very thick. I see that you use a seamless steel tubing. Great workmanship and Thank you for posting this video!
That is probably true. Wood need to be stabilized in order not to absorb moisture or to "breath". That is why we have special coating that prevents that. Thank you for commenting! :)
Interesting that when you cut the slats for the mug, you don't miter cut each side so that each slat lays flush with the next. Are you just not showing that step, or do they kind of press together when you assemble it? (It's possible that I just missed that!)
+Caleb Faulkner Both size have the same angle. We just didnt put that in video, because its 2 scenes of the same part of production. Video is already longer then it should be, so we cut out all unnecessary parts
I would love to have one my self but also have the inside and outside of the mug rounded out same as the big barrels are. This Mug is perfect for me.. I drink a lot of tea, and other sorts.
Svaka Vam cast. Prepoznali ste pravo vreme za ovakve "rusticne" stvari. Ceo svet se polako vraca materijalima iz proslosti, ako zbog nicega drugog onda je to zbog kvaliteta i malog uticaja na covecije zdravlje!!! Samo napred!!
I was just listening to the beautiful music on this video and received a call telling me that my Cousin committed suicide this morning. In fact I had just posted below asking where I could find this music when I found out about Bill. I'm sad. Such is life sometimes. I will remember him fondly. Thanks you for the music.
i felt like crying honestly, the craftsmanship, good music, beer mugs, and beer, and the end scene, having a drink with the boys..man...like come one now, good o'l times right there, haha now, what i would like to know, is if you add a metal piece inside the mug, or is it all just wood? because ive seen some wood mugs that have the metal inside, and im not a big fan of that
***** Thank you for your compliments :) Mugs are made for high quality wood, and there is no metal inside. They are safe for food (drink) consumation, easy to maintain, and extremly durable (you can see that here ruclips.net/video/8dy3_vjSSwo/видео.html). They are coated with dental acrylic so you can drink both hot and cold beverages from them :) Cheers!
Just WOW! I'm pretty sure there is a reason behind why the big box stores don't make cups from wood....because of diseases, decomposition of the wood, expansion & contraction of the wood....
+Danger_5150 Well, mugs are coated with several layers with dental plastic(pretty expensive), and they are tested in health institute for sanitary permit :) Wood isnt expending anymore, there is no decomposition ( well, not for many decades at least), no diseases since you can wash it (even in dishwasher), and no contraction :) We are also coating mugs with bee wax if customer want that, to preserve the spirit and originality of wood.
I do medieval armor too, I made a chainmaille vest by hand out of 7 ga galvanized wire. unfortunately I broke 2 pairs of pliers and my main bolt cutters. very cool mugs btw.
Wow, really good your work. I'm inspired to use this technique, just to have fun and make something different, not a mug haha. Thank you for sharing with us.
1:07 I don't usually comment about safety, but this time I have to. One of the things you want to beware of when handling a router table is getting your fingers near the routing bit. In this video you did just that, you held your hand literally above it. Although I really did like the video, nice editing and a cool project. Keep it up! :)
LetsBuildIt Thank you about your concern, we really apreciate it! We did that just because of the video purposes (scene was close up, and hands were in the way of camera). We realize that it is a bad example, so we will try to be more careful on the next videos that we are preparing! And also thank you for your compliments! Cheers!
Zyrus router grabs the work piece and spits it out, wheres his hand when the work piece is gone? what if he slips? yeah its just safer to use push blocks and not take chances.
So I'm familiar with most of the machines they have in their workshop. (And envious, wishing I could afford even half of them) But is it odd that the hammer rack is the part that impressed me the most? (Even though it was probably cheaper by far than most of the machines)
are you guys ever going to put these back up on your etsy? they look amazing!!! better than - it goes without saying but i still gotta - the stuff i've seen on other online shops
What's the purpose of the non-functional rivets in the bands? Just to make it look badass so the bikers will want one? Nice mugs but I would prefer maple with a wooden handle attached to the bands. (with functional rivets)
The only bit I can fault is the scene at the very end. You've not worn much plate armour if you think people socialise in that stuff after actually using it, hehe. Beautiful mugs, I want one!
+Penniwhistle Thank you! People actually socialize today after using it :D :P we are fighting on battle of nations, so we are used to this stuff :P: but we are not fighting in that armor tho, because you have one Roman in lorica segmentata there, one peasant, and few LARP knights ;D
In about 2 weeks. In this batch we will have wild cherry, mahogany, wenge, american walnut, some turkish walnut, european walnut, oak, figured oak, ash, and hornbeam
It's videos like this that make me love working with wood so much. I'm just a beginner, and just getting my tools collected, but man it's going to be so satisfying with results like these. The music is just an added bonus. Subscribed. Genuinely love this.
For some reason that last little segment at the end there makes me want to see a medieval sitcom. "DOTH THOU JEST?!"
Deus Vult my friend, Deus vult
Surely thou joust!
If this was my job with this music playing all the time I wouldn't want to go home
Exactly what I was thinking man.
I'll stick with my metal bud
go for it
Ah a simpler time... Getting drunk and decapitating witches. Pepperidge Farms remembers.
thats hilarious
😂😂😂😂 dead.
Well I hope you guys also made some push sticks after this, because you got a high stakes finger lottery going on in the video.
None the less a great looking mug.
to late already made a similar mug mine has a sign of horde.
I expected you to make 2 mugs in 1 and to then cut the piece in half, like you do then you make a box with a lid.

Not just a mug but a piece of art. Beautiful work.
Those sanding strips that went inside was the best part! I never knew anything like that even existed! Nice work!
+Deric Kettel Just cut the cloth-backed sandpaper into strips, drill a hole on one end and line them up on a screw with a washer and nut. Simple and effective;)
You do a fairly good job of welding the outside curve on the handles but you completely miss the inside curve
Hi David, thank you, since we currently use MIG process, it's a bit difficult to grind flush the weld on the inside. It does not affect sturdiness of the handle, but we will upgrade hopefully soon for aesthetics ;) Thanks for comment :)

I feel like the handle should be wood because it would feel better to touch. Nice job.
Truly a form of art. I'm a Realtor and these would be awesome gifts to buyers who love their beer--very unique!
You can contact us if you have any ideas :)
loving the combination of wood and metal work in making of beer mug
Just ordered 8 of these. By far the best tankards Ive ever seen.
God bless your art and hands, friend !
awesome job, congratulations
I don't think you've got enough hammers.
Interesting that when you cut the slats for the mug, you don't miter cut each side so that each slat lays flush with the next. Are you just not showing that step, or do they kind of press together when you assemble it? (It's possible that I just missed that!)

I have to say those woods that's being cut is oddly satisfying to look at.
It was the moment I finished watching this video I threw my cheap pint glass down and realized I need to up my game. I need this mug in my life. ASAP!
That music was very soothing
I had the idea of making a few of these as gifts for family sometime in the future, along with home-brewed booze, of course. Great video!
Great craftsmanship, talent and passion shown.
I hope to get one, maybe more. Sons getting married maybe Ill get all the guys involved one.
I love the feeling of when I'm forging something all by myself by hand, so proud when I finish.
HELL YEAH. Way cool. I've got a "barrel" mug that's made out of copper. It was my favorite till i watched this.
I was just listening to the beautiful music on this video and received a call telling me that my Cousin committed suicide this morning. In fact I had just posted below asking where I could find this music when I found out about Bill. I'm sad. Such is life sometimes. I will remember him fondly. Thanks you for the music.
back then,they dont have any tool like this...,nice job,really
after a hard day
this video relaxed me
thanQ
They look so happy..
They have good skills , good friends.
Wonderful. Now I need to make one for myself
2:14 haha idk about anyone else but that is so satisfying to me
i felt like crying honestly, the craftsmanship, good music, beer mugs, and beer, and the end scene, having a drink with the boys..man...like come one now, good o'l times right there, haha now, what i would like to know, is if you add a metal piece inside the mug, or is it all just wood? because ive seen some wood mugs that have the metal inside, and im not a big fan of that

I love the cinematography in this video
The music was so relaxing and calming

I prefer my Horn mug, but I'm gonna make one of these.... looks fun
The song is josh woodward motionless land
Instrumental
Don't know what's nicer, the mug or the workshop? :O
That's some beautiful craftsmanship!
I do medieval armor too, I made a chainmaille vest by hand out of 7 ga galvanized wire. unfortunately I broke 2 pairs of pliers and my main bolt cutters. very cool mugs btw.
Wow, really good your work.

I really like the song used for this too, made the video more relaxing to watch.
Great video and nice mug at the end but guys get a tig welder to weld the handles, much better finish.
+Christopher Smith We plan to get it for some time now! :D But somehow, every time something else gets first in line for shoping :D Tnx!
Beautiful work . loved that theatrical use at the end of video love it , music brought you into the video too great job
Hierro y madera, muy buena combinación.
this is the most adorable thing. I can tell you put a lot of effort into it. Great work!
I want one, but I don't have the requisite suit of armor and a medieval tavern nearby...
can't stop watching this... thanks!
Nice stuff. I enjoyed this video with musical harmony.
Only a milkdrinker could dislike this.
Great video!

LetsBuildIt Holy shit!
LetsBuildIt Why shouldn't you have you hand close? The wood was in between the router and his hand so I dont see what could happen.
Zyrus router grabs the work piece and spits it out, wheres his hand when the work piece is gone? what if he slips? yeah its just safer to use push blocks and not take chances.
Ah okey, thanks. I'm not a woodworker myself. I'm just interested in people creating things.
i love the background music..also the mug..
So I'm familiar with most of the machines they have in their workshop. (And envious, wishing I could afford even half of them)
But is it odd that the hammer rack is the part that impressed me the most? (Even though it was probably cheaper by far than most of the machines)
Some hammers are pretty expensive (for hammers). We are armorers and weapon smiths, that's why we need so many hammers :D Cheers!
hi
GRACIAS POR COMPARTIR ESTE BELLO VIDEO .
Simply beautiful
I need one right now
best part of making
White board
Writing Pad Chair
Bunker Cot
I love this video, I would love to work at a place like that. I will be buying one of those mugs!
That was great. Thanks for the fun video. Very nice mug build too.
i would also be able to make anything if i had all those tools and machinery
hey..I really enjoyed watching your video..the music was really soothing and i will watch your future videos...don't change that music..love it.
Absolutely Barbaric
Love machine shops , you can do anything :) Niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Mug.
Such a beautiful video ... and wonderful craft.
are you guys ever going to put these back up on your etsy? they look amazing!!! better than - it goes without saying but i still gotta - the stuff i've seen on other online shops
Awesome job. Awesome mug's to drink mead
I made one and it has also a wooden handle. You make it look simple. Nice work :D
The hipster market is strong right now, good business strategy
+Michael Townsly Hipsters only drink out of recycled jam jars I believe.
aslan burnley Good one
Love your router table!
Damnnnnn so relaxing, one because of the video and two becuase of the music. Thank you guys
slickly made video. Mugs look great too
Awesome job, tnx for sharing it with the world!!!!
Good, Cold Beer tastes good in anything : )
Holy crap I'm buying one
Great video. Admirable work!!
Hah, that elastic band is all sorts of brilliant :p
what've you used on it so the beer don't soak into the wood? bee wax?
This looks like a place where I would love to work *.* For now I'll just admire from afar.. ;(
i would love to have one of these with a clear glass bottom
Glass wood probably shatter from force of wood when we are hammering rings. But Challenge accepted! :D
What's the purpose of the non-functional rivets in the bands? Just to make it look badass so the bikers will want one? Nice mugs but I would prefer maple with a wooden handle attached to the bands. (with functional rivets)
I really enjoyed the music.!
Awesome, I look forward to getting my hands on one of these.
That's some talent right there...nice job!
Love the music and wonderful video!!! thank you sooo much for sharing. :)

what did you use to seal it?
The only bit I can fault is the scene at the very end. You've not worn much plate armour if you think people socialise in that stuff after actually using it, hehe. Beautiful mugs, I want one!
+Penniwhistle Thank you! People actually socialize today after using it :D :P we are fighting on battle of nations, so we are used to this stuff :P: but we are not fighting in that armor tho, because you have one Roman in lorica segmentata there, one peasant, and few LARP knights ;D
