I sat in a forest and would hear the birds sing. I was cut down so Jimmy could make things. I felt his hands push and pull. I just thank God I'm not a salad bowl.
Listening to the podcast it really made me think about being too precious with wood. I have a variety of small pieces that I'm saving for the king's shoes that I realized that I should probably just use up. Great build.
I did this just 2 days ago with some mahogany that I had prepped for another project... a couple of years ago that didn't get off the ground, and I was like, "but it's mahogany" and then I looked at my STACK of reclaimed mahogany I've got (quite a lot) and I was like "yeah yeah ok ok - fine I'll use it and prep more IF I ever get around to doing that project".
"Saving for the king's shoes" What a great phrase. Am currently sitting on about a dozen 10 & 8/4 slabs (accumulated over a while) that I've been saving for something special. I guess I should try to make something special then.
Incredible build. I like how you used the disc sander to get those flat joints. Really good lesson in how to stay free in the build. That total boat looks awesome. The boots are incredible too. Hopefully Carolina gets a chance to film some live sessions with it. 🔥🔥🔥🔥👊✊💪🤠
Beauty! I have a chunk of hickory and you have me thinking... Those U-haul felt blankets make for a great sound deadener/insulation. Myself and my Wife gutted an 86 VW Jetta and the old insulation/sound deadener was shot. A Neighbor up the hill had a few of those blankets that he gave to us.
Love it! I was reminding me of Sam Maloof A few days ago I thought I'd try my hand at building a stool, nothing like this but just to make something different.
I LOVE walnut! Most beautiful wood. Stool looks very 1970s, Planet of the Apes! Is glue really strong enough to hold the seat together? Seems like it'd be prone to breaking over time.
You're a talented guy who knows his strengths and weaknesses and his tools! I sculpt my furniture projects and use the tools I know. Was thinking about the 1 inch blade for cutting ( new) lol! Great "on the run" pattern making. Always good to hear you discuss the mental process. I always quote you about learning on the first piece. Then I hope I can remember it! LOL!
Yeah the stool is cool but... That goddamn bandsaw is awesome. Every time I see you running tree trunk sized wood through that massive beast I smile like a little kid seeing Santa Claus. God bless Jimmy DiResta and his bandsaw collection ❤️💛💚
Hi Jimmy, I like so much your videos. I'm Fabio from Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. We had a big disaster here, most of our cities are under flooding. I have a shopp of tools with several damages. I'd like some tips from you to try recover some of that.😢
I've been bandsaw sculpting a walnut chunk that I saved from the firewood pile just last week. I felt a little naughty doing it, knowing I've cut the tree limb myself just a year back, and knowing I could do so much more stuff with the rest of the parts that I milled back then, or just stacked for bbq; every now and then I would pause and ask myself "what would Jimmy do?" 😅
Project is awesome, I love the colouring and the laser work, I don't think it would have worked with smalller timber so all good there for sure. #jimmydiresta Where do you get the recycled denim covers, Ive been trying to find them in the usual places and not getting anywhere thanks for sharing
That looks really good. That's a solid stool for sure that's never going to break. I thought it also looked really good before you took the palm sander to it, with all the lines and slight divots from the wood carving disc. Gave it a raw look. But it's also beautiful the way you did it.
The logo looked awesome until you stained it... Then it blends in so well that it makes it harder to see. Before that it really popped My only other complaint: I think I would have rounded the edges of the top just a little more. I bet that sharp edge gets uncomfortable on the back of your legs, if you had to sit on it for awhile. I like the rough and raw look though. Too many straight lines in the world.
I love the solid look. .awesome only thing I would have suggested is elongated holes in the stool so the seat could expand and contract with moisture changes and not split the seat😊 (but I'm no expert that is for sure) great job!
Sam Maloof loved the wood and always waited until the design called for that piece of wood to be used... Other times he designed the piece to fit the wood ... You picked the right man to inspire your design here. Great work.
Love that there's a millenial someplace having a meltdown when they see the 30" disk sander. "This dude is nut. Look at all that dust and no collection system. Oh my god he doesn't have a respirator or gloves on." GEN X baby. We still drink from the garden hose. Well sometimes, not all the time. Lol great vid. Beautiful stool.
As a person who works in the field of renovation and carpentry, I must say that you are wonderful, you have excellent and practical explanations, practical techniques and skills, and you are also a creative person. Every time I watch you, I enjoy working in this field and seeing people like you.
Straight and level is important.. But your freeform style is so organic and has a very artistic quality. Honesty makes a rookie like me so very jealous...
Great Result Jimmy, loving the organic feel of this stool, thanks for sharing your feelings while doing this, it's a great help to know that someone with your skill and experience can still feel intimidated and be anxious about committing before starting a challenging project with a beautiful piece of timber !
I love your approach to projects. I'm an illustrator, and at this point with enough projects under my belt, I don't like to overplan from the beginning so I can let whatever I am doing become what it needs to.
I miss your old videos where you didn’t care about anything. You would use your zoom edit and just show us how it’s done. You gave us an idea. Love you diresta been watching you since I was 17
That is a gorges stool. It will support many great pickers in its existance. This is what we all hope for, to build things that last.Not disposable junk!
I'd like to see you make one just like this... But using nothing but the bandsaw (and the jointer). Like when you first glued it all together. You could make a pair of them. Nice and chunky, rough and quick and easy. Make it a test to see just how efficient you could be and make it in the least amount of steps and the least amount of time. No finish work at all. That's how an engineer thinks. I love stuff like that. Ultra efficient, easiest process with the least amount of work. Just a good design

That'll support a 600 pound guitarist... easily.
You know any 600 lb guitarist…? I wonder what his boots would look like😂
Jelly Roll could test it
That dude from Blues Traveler tipped the scales.
".....You're not gonna cut up that piece of walnut for that are ya ? " ..Fantastic as always!
Incredible build. I like how you used the disc sander to get those flat joints. Really good lesson in how to stay free in the build. That total boat looks awesome. The boots are incredible too. Hopefully Carolina gets a chance to film some live sessions with it. 🔥🔥🔥🔥👊✊💪🤠
Looks awesome. Well done!
Сразу видно настоящего профи - перевести монолитный кусок недешёвого дерева на колхозную табуретку.
Great job as always 💪🏽😘
So now the front of your shop smells like walnut, great…😂😂🤦🏻♂️
Always watching for ideas on my ranch!!
💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 be safe out there brother
Beautiful stool! I love the classic Walnut wood! Nice craftsmanship as always Jimmy! Well done .
I think you nailed it, Brother!!❤
That’s one fine stool any artist wood be proud of!!💪🏼👍🏼
Tinha um mochinho dentro daquelas madeiras.
I bet that, if this medium existed back then, Michelangelo would have voiced the same reservations when chipping into a block of marble.
Absolutely love the chunky, organic lines of this stool. Awesome work. Mahalo for sharing! : )
Hey where is the huge bandsaw Keith Rucker fixed up for you, you said you cut that on the “huge bandsaw”
Comming up video for sure
The real question, who will be the first to fart on that stool? 😅
To quote Jim Carrey: B-E-A-Utiful!

Excellent craftmanship, Jimmy! Definitely one to be proud of.
Love it! I was reminding me of Sam Maloof
A few days ago I thought I'd try my hand at building a stool, nothing like this but just to make something different.
You were hurting me cutting into the walnut Jimmy.
I remember cutting a walnut block i had for over 20 years.
Incredible work on that sculpted stool Jimmy! Really awesome logo as well! Double H Boots' hired the right person to do that job! BRAVO! 👍👍👏👏
I LOVE walnut! Most beautiful wood. Stool looks very 1970s, Planet of the Apes!
Is glue really strong enough to hold the seat together? Seems like it'd be prone to breaking over time.
Another great build that will be here for over a century inspiring people

Diresta!! Have any older footage of SPIKE, that youve never posted_ been a huge fan for a long time! Keep on trucking bro
It's no pair of shoes for a king, but it does look pretty slick. Love the soft flowing lines. Looks very comfortable! Thanks for sharing!
I can fully understand the initial apprehension! Finished piece looks so good. Thank you for showing and narrating your process.
Perfect timing dude. I want to make a guitar stool for myself. Thanks for sharing your process 🤙
Awesome. I’ve got a fat stock of Walnut. It’s intimidating to me. I’m waiting until the perfect project
So beautiful! So difficult to maintain symmetry on projects like this/
Project is awesome, I love the colouring and the laser work, I don't think it would have worked with smalller timber so all good there for sure.
#jimmydiresta Where do you get the recycled denim covers, Ive been trying to find them in the usual places and not getting anywhere
thanks for sharing

I thought it also looked really good before you took the palm sander to it, with all the lines and slight divots from the wood carving disc. Gave it a raw look.
But it's also beautiful the way you did it.
أحسنت يا مبدع عمل ممتاز وذو مهنية عالية انا متابعك من العراق
ارجو عرض المزيد من الفديوات
That's freaking sweet Jimmy! Hard to beat the figure of walnut🎉
Gorgeous!!! Dude, was hoping to see it in the space it will live!!! ah well. Beautiful work.
Great work my friend. I mean seriously just Wow!!!
I know EXACTly what you mean, I've got a huge slab of Myrtle wood to work with
👍🏼Sam probably would’ve got a kick outta that usable art Beauty✊🏼🌳
belíssimo trabalho Jimmy. eu gosto dos seu vídeos e tudo isso me inspira muito. obrigado por compartilhar seu talento.
The logo looked awesome until you stained it... Then it blends in so well that it makes it harder to see.

As allways, will not settle for les then "for ever" quality..😂, awesome jimmy, awesome.
It looks great!!!
I love the solid look. .awesome only thing I would have suggested is elongated holes in the stool so the seat could expand and contract with moisture changes and not split the seat😊 (but I'm no expert that is for sure) great job!
Beautiful stool, is the bandsaw the one Keith Rucker restored for you?
I love the chunky shape and curves. it’s beastly and really makes a statement 🔥🔥🔥👏
Very nice work! Thank you for sharing this build.
Looks great!
Nice! but where is the Rucker-restored BIG bandsaw?!
Sooo cool! Beautiful work, Jimmy!!
❤️❤️❤️
It's always great to hear when you're really happy with a project.
Jimmy being intimidated by anything speaks volumes lol...
Não sei para que, colocar caveira em tudo! Isso só atrai coisa ruim!
Bro do u know how much i miss waking up to the sound of chickens. City life blows
As always, thanks for all your time and effort. 1in7
Definitely Sam Maloof inspired! Very nice.
You rock.
Hello mister Jimmy beautifully done good job
I love using the cut offs from large table legs to make smaller side tables.
Sam Maloof loved the wood and always waited until the design called for that piece of wood to be used... Other times he designed the piece to fit the wood ... You picked the right man to inspire your design here. Great work.
Everything you make is COOL!
very nice work Jimmy. Your skills are bar none sir.
Damn that is clean!! Great job, Jimmy!
I love how you design on the fly with the "instructions" in your head! That stool is amazing! Double H is getting a masterpiece!
beautiful , how many hours do you think all in to make this ?
Love that there's a millenial someplace having a meltdown when they see the 30" disk sander. "This dude is nut. Look at all that dust and no collection system. Oh my god he doesn't have a respirator or gloves on." GEN X baby. We still drink from the garden hose. Well sometimes, not all the time. Lol great vid. Beautiful stool.

That was really cool to watch. It’s a great piece.
work of art this stool. i luv stuff like this
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING JIMMY!!! That’s a real beauty. Love the engraving.
I found this video in the streets of New Yawk
Another amazing piece 👍🏻
Fantastic result on this one sir.
Really awesome. Great make Jimmy.
Love your old bar clamps. I have several old ones like those. Not to flashy but sturdy enough. ClampOn
Looks fantastic as always Jimmy.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻awesomeness
Perfect man. Would love to noodle away on that!
That is amazing, nice job 👌
Fine work Jimmy! Looks stellar. I meant to tell you in-person last weekend.
Impressive work!
Thanks for sharing
Straight and level is important.. But your freeform style is so organic and has a very artistic quality. Honesty makes a rookie like me so very jealous...
Love it Jimmy. Great stuff!
Amazing, your projects are always inspiring for a hobbiest like myself.

Stool Schmool, when are we getting a graveyard house update?
Soooooon 🙏🏼

Awesome project, enjoyed watching it! Thanks for sharing
I'd like to see you make one just like this... But using nothing but the bandsaw (and the jointer). Like when you first glued it all together. You could make a pair of them. Nice and chunky, rough and quick and easy. Make it a test to see just how efficient you could be and make it in the least amount of steps and the least amount of time. No finish work at all. That's how an engineer thinks. I love stuff like that. Ultra efficient, easiest process with the least amount of work. Just a good design
Sam Maloof would be proud of you
Beautiful work! I love that you always push yourself to do things that are outside your comfort zone.
