I think it was very well executed. At the same time, I lean against the idea of telling people how to make content. The part of RUclips I love is the huge variety of personality and style I encounter. Do you man, your work stands on its own!
On the contrary I love non-narrated videos where we are left to watch in awe, and in peace. e.g. old Diresta... I know I´m in the minority but then so´s my IQ 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Все на высшем уровне! Ты настоящий профессионал своего дела! Хороший качественный инструмент и умение с ним работать а главное умение рассказать другим что и как делать , умение нести и передавать знания это очень здорово , ты очень большой молодец
Narration spot on, not too much talking. Voting with the guy who mentioned the legs snapping, tho. This doesn’t seem like a seat made for ‘fluffy’ people, or the careless. Really pretty, and a lot of well done work!
I know RUclips is very competitive. Its not easy to come up with new styles and approaches. I am seriously impressed with your development of this patterned plywood style. Great execution and imagination. Thank you for your hard work. 🔥
Actually there is a youtube video of just that. The leg was part of the plywood challenge put on by the RUclips guys from Modern Builds and Foureyes and Homemade Modern
I began my apprenticeship into carpentry when I was 16yrs old and am now 47yrs old. I'm always learning new and exciting ideas from beginners to masters, and without me having to say I'm certain you know where you fall. Thanks for these patterned plywood ideas, I'm certain I'll be using them for many years to come.
The narration was great! Hate videos where the person just rambles on but when it is just music kind of leaves you wanting more. Nice to have your cake and eat it too!
I really liked the narration. Some folks narrate as they go, during the build, and that can get noisy. Plus adding narration after the build allows you to consider the more important details that are valuable to a viewer. Great jigs and a really nice, elegant, simple stool.
I am a retired cabinet maker and I really enjoyed this it was well made and thought provoking. At the risk of sounding patronising may I add well done.
First video of yours I've watched - I prefer narration, even if it is brief because, if done well (yours was done well...), it answers many of the questions a viewer may have while watching. So... YES, keep on narrating. Oh, and NICE WORK!
Makes me want to take up wood working. Narration is helpful. I've seen many craftsmen create beautiful pieces from beautiful wood. You take plywood and turn it into a true masterpiece. You're like the Frank Lloyd Wright of wood craftsmen.
I really appreciated your narration. Really, I love music but that's not what brought me to your video. Now, I know music can be relaxing, but if you could just lower its volume a little bit. You make wonderful furniture and it's soooo nice to have you explain the whys and hows, and your extra tips like the one on the dowels. THANKS A LOT!!!
Your plywood pattern artwork belongs in a museum. Would you please consider making an electric bill video covering the cost of all of the corded power tools?? 👍👍👍
At the age of nearly sixty three, my favorite pastime is learning from younger people. I was a cabinet maker and antique furniture restorer for the better part of my life (the other half was musician) in Canada, England, and thirty years in Paris, France. I congratulate you on this very original project- in fact I would be tempted to purchase it from you, because I have been looking for a high stool to play my enormous 45lb concert accordion on!! (except I need a foot rest, haha). I was really impressed by your tapered leg turning technique on the table saw; it was amazing there wasn't more tear out. Very, very fine project young man. Congratulations. I'll be back! Greetings from the West of France (Brittany). Ralph
Yes! Appreciate the narration, as g1mpster noted I don't like when RUclipsrs just play music but then I think English must not be their first language. Nice project!
Excellent video! Loved the narration and when you keep your mistakes and then explain how you fix it is a sign of a good teacher. This stool is beautiful and an art piece as well as practical. I've seen patterned wood layouts before but not with plywood. Very cool. I'm not usually one for music in a build video, but this was very nice, sort of the '40s, smoky lounge-like music. I wanted to wear all black with a black bursae hat with a long cigarette holder while watching, lol.
Narration was great and you showed so many learning principles that are helpful to us newbies in the art of woodworking. I am definitely going to make some of these.
Very very cool. This was nothing like I have seen before. I personally appreciate yr hard work and detailing on this project. This is why I believe in buying custom made. I wish u lot more success. Hats off to u and thank you for this video.
Really appreciated the use of your patterns and your 3D imagination to produce a plan for your build. That stool is lovely by the way.... Who would have thought 40 years ago when plywood became so prolific and “hated” amongst sections of the woodwork community that today we are starting to recognise the beauty of it? Things change and evolve...I must admit tho that I struggle with most mid century modern designs....can’t get past the frugality (perceived back then as cheapness...) I’m a “don’t mind it either way “ kind of viewer.... I DO use the volume button frequently and often it’s to silence many of the narrations. I won’t go into why I do so... flaming RUclips wars are so inane when the reason why you watch RUclips is to learn something, a technique, a tool or a process not “how to develop snarky comments towards other RUclipsrs...” My life is just too short for such.....
That thing turned out sick, Michael! I think one of my favorite details is where you make the bottom of the plywood kind of rounded and come out and kiss each leg. It is a subtle detail, but one that you got totally right. Great job!
Sometimes narration stops the flow of the story, but in this case it only makes it better. And it is very helpful, you give out many tips as you go. Great job, both on the stool and on the video!
Great work. I love the arbor tech attachments. Narration went well with the work. I like that style vs seeing no content while someone talks into the camera. Great work brotha!
Great job narrating the process. You added just enough details for us to follow along. And you didn't sidestep how you solved the problem of the little void in the one leg. Wood is wood right? Stuff happens, that why we like it so much! Nice looking stool. Any movement in it? Maybe some stretchers in the next one? ✌️
your work is just facinating. i love your use of plywood, while a lot of wood workers are out looking for exotic woods, your useing the most common. i am very inspired by your work. i am a maker also. right now im into knife makeing and like a lot of others im out looking for the exotics but recently i glued up some plywood, i was surprised by the results. i plan to do more but for a knife handle i plan to glue it up than stabilize the handle blank. i have other ideas but right now its too cold in my unheated shop. todays not to bad so im heading there. thank you for your videos...
If I had a stool like that I would be proudly showing it off to each and every person visiting my house. And definite yes to narration, it makes the video more interesting when you telling what and why you're doing, be it some small part of the process or the project as a whole itself.
This is the perfect format, the narration mixed with the great shots and the soothing music makes it so enjoyable to watch
The narration was much appreciated. I hate when people just play music and don’t explain any of what they’re doing. Keep it up! 👍
Yes..well done

Narration was great,allowed us to follow along while keeping the flow going.
shivering black bell thumbs up! 3/6/23 enjoying watching a few of these older videos.
The table saw lathe was one of the wildest yet genius cases of improvisation I've seen lol. Love it!
Narration spot on, not too much talking. Voting with the guy who mentioned the legs snapping, tho. This doesn’t seem like a seat made for ‘fluffy’ people, or the careless. Really pretty, and a lot of well done work!
I will say that the fact that you are narrating your videos is the reason I am subscribing to your channel.
I know RUclips is very competitive. Its not easy to come up with new styles and approaches. I am seriously impressed with your development of this patterned plywood style. Great execution and imagination. Thank you for your hard work. 🔥
Thank you! Yeah, I’ve been really happy with the patterned ply, and I love working with it.
Actually there is a youtube video of just that. The leg was part of the plywood challenge put on by the RUclips guys from Modern Builds and Foureyes and Homemade Modern
Narration was perfect. Not too much babbling, just the techniques. 👌👍
That lathe jig blew my mind 🤯

I'm always learning new and exciting ideas from beginners to masters, and without me having to say I'm certain you know where you fall.

I prefer the narrated videos.
The stool is beautiful. Thanks for sharing it.
Yes, the narration was strong. The build was strong. Very nice video all around, thanks.
Keep up the narration. Makes it so much easier to know exactly what you are doing.
You are a true teacher. You share your knowledge so skillfully.
I love how your 300TD is always so nicely placed in most of your videos. Some extra eye candy!
LOVE that chair!
I’m a guitar player and that would be perfect for having nothing to bang into when seated with instrument!
Narration was great!!
Nothing wrong with any aspect of this video, the project was great, the process was good, the narration was good, keep it up.
The narration was great! Hate videos where the person just rambles on but when it is just music kind of leaves you wanting more. Nice to have your cake and eat it too!
Love the narration, very clear and so much better than annoying loud music
Work of art.
👨🏼🎨
I really liked the narration. Some folks narrate as they go, during the build, and that can get noisy. Plus adding narration after the build allows you to consider the more important details that are valuable to a viewer. Great jigs and a really nice, elegant, simple stool.
Thanks for the feedback! Glad to hear it's beneficial!
Good job.
That table saw lathe jig is absolutely brilliant

Oh, and NICE WORK!
Patterned ply and power carving? What a cool look! Nicely done Michael
Thanks Johnny! Happy New Year!
@@MichaelAlm Happy New Year buddy!!
Makes me want to take up wood working. Narration is helpful.
I've seen many craftsmen create beautiful pieces from beautiful wood. You take plywood and turn it into a true masterpiece. You're like the Frank Lloyd Wright of wood craftsmen.
Wow . Great technique, looks unbelievable!
Appreciate your narration!
Cutting that round stool leg on the table saw was cool! Nice work!
Narration is always a plus imo
coming back to this video now that I've bought an Arbortech carving unit. The table saw lathe and the other jigs are excellent. Thanks again.
Narration was fine. Well done. I enjoy your work.
I really appreciated your narration. Really, I love music but that's not what brought me to your video. Now, I know music can be relaxing, but if you could just lower its volume a little bit.

Commentary is great. Great vid
It was a great viewing experience. No tweaking necessary.
Narration really helps in my opinion. Great video! Awesome stool.
Thank you!
Great video. Your commentary is simple, honest and helpful.
Omg I’ve only just discovered your channel. What you do is insane !!!!
Loved the narration. Trying to learn and observation only takes you so far.

This is the fist video i see from your channel. But I liked how you narrated :)

Yes narration. I learn the most from the mistakes corrected and explained. Make, fail, learn, perfect. Thanks!
Narration was awesome!!!! I'm learning so much from you.
Very nice work. I appreciate the narration and you have a nice voice.Thanks for sharing.

Resounding yes on the commentary!!
Your narration is fun and informative. I particularly liked how much you experiment with the table saw. Dont stop!
Very very cool. This was nothing like I have seen before. I personally appreciate yr hard work and detailing on this project. This is why I believe in buying custom made. I wish u lot more success. Hats off to u and thank you for this video.
I really appreciated the narrative..I use the closed captioning for most videos and your narrative was spot on with the build
Sweet Mercedes. I had a 1985 Mercedes 300TD Wagon about 8 or so years ago. Got compliments all the time in that thing.
Narration worked very well. Nice job. Well done!
Yes in the narration!
Great job Mr. Alm. Please stay with the narration.
I like your narrations. You have an easy voice to listen to.
Yes. I genuinely appriciate your narration.

Thanks! 😁
Yes on the narration. Great job all around.
Well done on the chair and the video demo.
Really appreciated the use of your patterns and your 3D imagination to produce a plan for your build.

nice design, excellent video love the leg /turning
Thanks Michael.
Narration was perfect I think. Awesome product too! Thanks!!!
Very nice! Yes the narration is good. Adds to the video.
Brilliant video. Excellent craftsmanship. Narrative perfect. What more can I say?
Learned lots of new technique from the video. Thanks a lot!
Wow i have never seen anyone use a table saw as a lathe :o respect man
Cool design... and the narration was great.
I vote no for the narration but I'm glad I was wrong. It was perfect for this video. Great job on the stool. I'm still in awe of your skills. Bravo!
That thing turned out sick, Michael! I think one of my favorite details is where you make the bottom of the plywood kind of rounded and come out and kiss each leg. It is a subtle detail, but one that you got totally right. Great job!

Truly a thing of beauty. So elegant and simple in design but intricate at the same time
You're like a genius of plywood... I really enjoy and learn a lot watching your videos! Cheers from Brazil.
The narration was great, super informative, but still pretty chilled out (in a good way!)
Flipping Gorgeous! Awesome work!
Totally bad ass. Narration is great, very helpful.
Nice job. And you own the best car ever manufactured!
Great stool, cool Cameo of your W123 wagon.
You have some ingenious ideas on little tricks to solve/make things work/better!! ❤❤
That looks so good. Love the design
Thanks Bart!
Elated that I just discovered your channel! (No other word for it). The narration is great. Great project!
Thanks for sharing this and your work. Really enjoy seeing your creations and creativity.
Great design! I think creating he diamond pattern was perfect!
I remember when you first did the leg jig and I'm still impressed with the outcome
Great looking stool! Love the pattern!
If I had a stool like that I would be proudly showing it off to each and every person visiting my house.
And definite yes to narration, it makes the video more interesting when you telling what and why you're doing, be it some small part of the process or the project as a whole itself.
2:42 always my favorite part! Your builds never cease to amaze me....great work as always. Your videos never disappoint!
