@@TimberBiscuitWoodworks well, I'll be sure to spread the word about your channel! You do great work, and your content is well made. Thank you for sharing your craft with us!
Yeah, epoxy. Everything has a place so I don't mind the obnoxious vibrant color if the goal was to be obnoxious. I mean, I am a child of 80s hair metal and most of that was pretty obnoxious, right? 😁 What a great build. I hope to be this talented at some point. 😎
New to your channel so hi from Scotland! Absolutely love watching you work, you make everything look so easy and your work is amazing, I also really enjoy your jokes and sense of humour, thanks for sharing this, great inspiration for me just getting into woodworking at 52 years old!
Shane!!! Over 3 hrs. later & I'm caught up!! Heck yeah Bro.!! What a project to finish my binge on. Less than 10 mins. in my shift what a win/win. Enjoy your weekend & stay Blessed my friend. Dirty Jersey out!!
I think epoxy has its place. Its original use of adhesive is extremely handy like when doing inlays. Woodturning with wood and epoxy makes some absolutely stunning pieces. Making imitation micarta is fun for all sorts of projects from woodturning turning to knife handles to inlays. (Cam’s (from BlackTail Studio) denim project is a form of that.) Even some tables are crazy, wacky and brilliant. I feel epoxy opened up new territory for creating items for businesses. Knot filling is extremely useful versus filler, putty or the sawdust/glue because finish on any of those can go horribly wrong. However, I very rarely use black (even on walnut). Deep chocolate browns are my thing. If I don’t want it to be very noticeable then I do more color matching to the knot’s color. It is a beautiful dresser! I do have one area of confusion. I believe you had stated you wanted this to be a set with your headboard. I assume you were referring to your wave headboard. The wave headboard was organic modern (flowing) yet this is more mid century modern (linear). Am I missing something? Not being critical just trying to understand the choices made since they are a set.
Fair point, I think epoxy would have more appeal to me of it wasn’t used so frequently as a gimmick if you know what I mean. And good question about the set. I have kind of a mix of organic and hard angled shapes in my bedroom set so both pieces complement other furniture in there as well. I agree that the dresser is more of a brutalist design while the hardboard is much more free form.
Yes epoxy. As a rookie woodworker, I find each "type" of woodworking to be beautiful in its own way and to each type of woodworker, it's still a wonderful craft. I prefer to not draw attention away from the wood itself, like you mentioned, but at the same time I appreciate the work that epoxy woodworkers put into their projects just as much. As always, excellent work!
Yeah, epoxy. But I'm not especially into the river tables. But I love turned wood/epoxy mixes, like a shaving brush or fountain pen with wood burl and acrylic.
New to the channel and may I say, WOW! Here we have someone who makes things! I was be-gaining to believe all these so-called woodworking channels were here with the soul purposed of selling you this "Have to have" item you'll hardly ever use. Very nice work. I'm not much on the more modern look, but you pulled it off very well. Really like the look! I cold see this piece having a place in our guess bedroom. Could you follow up with maybe a nightstand and somehow a free standing mirror? You could sell the set at a custom furniture store. I'm going to watch a few more of your video's to decide if I'd like to get involved in your patron.
Hey, and welcome to the channel! Thanks for the kind words. I have builds for a mirror and a nightstand on the channel already but with that being said, I may revisit some of those to get them inline with this style. And if you're interested in Patreon, I'd love to have ya, no pressure though. Thanks for the support!
Yes epoxy! I have seen some really cool uses of epoxy beyond bright blue on walnut which is silly and a bit overdone IMO. I would love to purchase plans for this dresser, then change it up to do something different on the front drawer faces. 😌
Love the design of this piece. I feel that drawer fronts are kinda like a canvas on the front of a dresser. It's where the woodworker can express her/himself. This is a very cool expression.
Epoxy/no Epoxy I truly enjoy seeing epoxy,as a medium, in wood working, but so enjoy the natural beauty of the wood and the epoxy blending in to the background.
No epoxy. I'm sort of on th edge for epoxy though. People like Cam from BlackTail Studios make the only epoxy tables I like, but sometimes that's even a bit over the top. I really like the way this project turned out. I feel those grooves you made for the drawer faces really sets it apart and makes this piece so much better than a standard dresser. I would also never have thought about having the legs go all the way through the top either. Looks really good, Shane 👍
I definitely think epoxy has its place, but I see it more for utility in finer woodworking. That said, I have seen some fascinating artistic furniture done with epoxy (river tables not included).
I hate epoxy tables so no. But I like the way you used it in this project. The drawers turned out beautifully. Great job and thanks for sharing. Oh and I’d buy plans for this project.
No epoxy. I use it mostly for voids, like you, and to enhance the wood. If that means using a small amount to make a well-designed river table, then yes. Love your videos, love your Dad jokes.
This is my first time visiting your channel found through Reddit. Love the build and the piece overall! Look forward to going through the rest of your page.
I appreciate real brass or copper powder + epoxy being used in knots, and any kind of design because the softness of the metals accentuate “defects” etc.
No epoxy, I'd rather use Starbond CA since you can use accelerator instead of waiting for days with epoxy but it's so much cheaper using cheap tinted epoxy
I'm going to be honest, I love the dresser, the video was great, the wood used is awesome, however the finish that's on there does not do the piece any justice what so ever, I'd love to see a follow up video where you clean that oil off and put something like rubio monocoat pure on it.
Thanks! Ah yes, Rubio Monocoat, don’t get me wrong I love it for certain things, but it’s not my go-to. I much prefer a wax and oil blend over the hard wax finish of Rubio, but to each their own.
I noticed that you did the routing with the bowl bit in one pass. What router/bit are you using that it doesn't bog down removing that much material in hardwood?
Yeah epoxy! One thing I would mention, I have a similar chest of dresser that I made, and the drawers ended up racking with the Blum drawer slides. Turns out, if your drawers are wider than they are long, they need a stabilizer bar to prevent one drawer slide from being pulled out more than the other, thus causing some instability over time.
@@TimberBiscuitWoodworks It will generally happen after you load the drawer with more weight. I believe they're called "Blum Tandem Lateral Stabilizer Bar". Good luck :)
I love the look of this cabinet. I was concerned the continuous grain on the drawer fronts would be obscured by the ridges, but it really works well. Overall, that is one very nice set of drawers!! Personally, I use epoxy like you do, so…no epoxy. ;). I have a concern about the drawer pulls. I think, over time, the drawers are going to rack because the pull is all to one side. I’d really love if you could do a follow-up on that after you’ve used the drawers for a while.
Beautiful! Love the Cherry, love love the figure in the walnut: More sap wood, striations and variation pls! I love walnut but it’s used so often I love to see when it has some character to it and especially when other species are used like Cherry, Hickory and Mahogany
Thank you! Yeah, my wife tried talking me into my sapwood with this one but I just struggle with getting it to match up like I want it to. Maybe on the next one
@@TimberBiscuitWoodworks ohh I gotcha, good point! That’s tough because you’re right, you might use more wood or not be able to get it to match up well. Thank you for that, I haven’t built a large enough projects to face that issue yet so I’ll keep that in mind. Regardless beautiful project!
@TimberBiscuitWoodworks believe me brother, I've burdened my brain beyond belief with the billions of...bifferent.........bames. Well that didn't work.
The finish isn't really protecting anything under the slides, and risking the drawers and drawer faces moving to apply finish there isn't worth the risk.

No to epoxy I use it just to fill in knots and voids
I'm with ya there

Love the design of this piece. I feel that drawer fronts are kinda like a canvas on the front of a dresser. It's where the woodworker can express her/himself. This is a very cool expression.
Thank you so much, I couldn’t agree more.
Meh epoxy, I’m a fan on understated designs that incorporate epoxy and using it to create beauty pieces from wood that would be almost unusable.
That's true, it does seem to work best at the extremes.
Yes epoxy for filling. If I wanted a plastic table, I would get a plastic one. Your videos are great btw.
Haha, no doubt! Thanks, I'm glad you're enjoying them.
My good man -- this is a true work of inspired art. I **love** it! Great video presentation, and thank you for creating and sharing this.
Thank you kindly!
Epoxy all depends. Some pieces look good with it. Others it sticks out like a sore thumb.
That is very true
Wow! Came out great. Appreciate the tips too.
Thank you, and you are so welcome!
No to epoxy, except in knot holes. It’s woodworking not plastic working.
Haha, I agree
Wow! I sincerely appreciate your new(er) design. Very inspirational.
Glad you like it!
I have given it a like, even though I don't consider a thumb is a finger 😎
Haha, funny enough, I had the same debate internally when I watched that part back.
I’d love to have plans for this to try build it for sure!
Awesome! I’m hoping to have them wrapped up in the next couple days.
Well done! That is a truly unique piece!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed this one.
I like it. Congrats from the UK.
Happy to hear that, thank you! Cheers!
Loving it sharp beautiful 🎉
Thank you so much!
Turned out so nice. I was thinking the maple strips would look nice with some textured hand cut scallops.
Thanks! Yeah, I agree that would look really cool
@@TimberBiscuitWoodworks check out Morgan Hurst toolbox video for the look I'm picturing.
Yeah Epoxy. In moderation.
Moderation is important
Great stuff again! love the through legs
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks, I think they turned out pretty cool.
NO EPOXY ---
Yes saw dust and glue
Haha I like the purest approach
Amazing build it turned out beautiful
Thanks you very much!
That's sick bro, I'd love to see this with maple instead of cherry that dark and light wood would really pop.
Thank you! I’ve done a few projects on the channel with that combo. I might have to revisit it
@@TimberBiscuitWoodworks definitely my favorite combo gives it a lot of contrast. Unfortunately walnut is hard to come by in my area .
I hear ya, it's a great attention grabber.
No epoxy, too expensive for my taste!
Great point!
Epoxy/no Epoxy I truly enjoy seeing epoxy,as a medium, in wood working, but so enjoy the natural beauty of the wood and the epoxy blending in to the background.
Yeah I love trying to hide it and make it blend with the grain.
No epoxy. I'm sort of on th edge for epoxy though. People like Cam from BlackTail Studios make the only epoxy tables I like, but sometimes that's even a bit over the top.

I agree with you there, great point!
It's OK in some design epoxy

Very unique and attractive piece. I like the Chapters, it is so easy to get to that crucial bit of information and the very dry jokes.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
So dope! Subscribed.
Thanks man! Welcome to the channel
what a clean piece! that looks awesome!!
I think so too, thanks!
nice work, epoxy yes
Thanks!
No epoxy, I'd rather use Starbond CA since you can use accelerator instead of waiting for days with epoxy but it's so much cheaper using cheap tinted epoxy
Yeah, for smaller stuff that's the route I would take as well.
Yes to epoxy....it has it's place and purpose. Great piece by the way! Very neat!
Thank you! Cheers!
That is so cool
Thank you so much!
Yeah epoxy!
Nice!
Yeah epoxy
I think it has its place.
Yes epoxy
Nice!
I'm going to be honest, I love the dresser, the video was great, the wood used is awesome, however the finish that's on there does not do the piece any justice what so ever, I'd love to see a follow up video where you clean that oil off and put something like rubio monocoat pure on it.

I have a SpinRite motor and that was a CMT bit. I highly recommend both
No epoxy!

Love it! and the pun about the guy who invented zero 😆
Haha! Thank you!
Can I get a copy of the plans for this build?
I’m sorry, mate. Unfortunately I never got around to making them for this one.
Yeah epoxy!
