Wow, just WOW! Amazing dedication and work..... Sawyer, a sawer from ancient times!
This was quite a build to watch!! Thanks for the video. I did notice your bench being loaded in the back of a pick-up truck. Did you happen to sell this bench & if you did, did you deliver it as well?? See ya & Merry Christmas!! 🎄🎁 🎅🎄
I'm more partial to popsicle top workbench.
The video shared is very easy to understand ,thanks
Is not only a workbench, it is also a piece of art.
True craftsmanship!
PIZZA fart
I showed this incredible workbench to my wife and she said it would make an amazing dining table! Oh, the humanity! The love and respect for the 500 year old tree, that is so apparent in this phenomenonal build transcendences traditional workmanship. You are a wood working god.
Woke up early, and clicked on RUclips. Found this. Frigging Brilliant. Made my day and I’m still in bed. Really nice job man. Inspirational to say the least. Is there anything more fun than working with your hands and making beautiful things. Thanks for being!
Wow, the most beautiful workbench in history. Thanks for sharing!!! Love the beauty without losing its practicality. Well done!!!
You are an oasis in a desert of woodworking on RUclips. I have been Jonesing waiting for you to post something new. You are one of a very few creative woodworkers on the channel worth watching. You are definitely museum worthy. Keep it up and you will be one of very few worth remembering.
Thanks so much Rick!
Agreed 100%. RUclips is full of hipsters that have been fooled into believing they're "woodworkers" by an algorithm. This channel is actual woodworking. No pocket holes, no corners cut, no hiding errors with trim, etc. It is great to have another quality channel to look forward to learning from, because there aren't many left!
ps- I prefer the solid top as well.
I love how you somehow doubt your abilities as a woodworker, yet you're out here building some of the most beautiful and complicated builds on any channel on this platform. You're out here killing it!! Keep up the awesome work. Love it!
Thanks Josh! It’s been a weird thing to be working completely out of my comfort zone with an audience. Appreciate the kind words!
Sometimes challenging oneself to overcome obstacles and learn new skills is as fun as the accomplishment.
@@SawyerDesign I’m working in my comfort zone without an audience and I screw up more than I succeed
@@terristroh3965 I feel ya ... lol
Way over my head/skills, still a pleasure to know guys doing this for its beautiful fruition
You are my new fuqing hero. I've got some envy overhere. I just watched a video where you say youve been doing this for three years and well..... Ive been working with wood for ten times that literally 30 years I dont have half your skill and no where near your talent. Bad ass my man.
I love how the things you make aren't simple straight lines etc. They're not simple, you put real thought into what you design & put huge effort into doing it well. Def one of the best workworking channels on YT imo!
That’s unbelievable, you set the bar at an entirely new level with every one of your builds!!!
Split Top Sawyer!
Let’s Go!! 🔥🔥🔥
And, you also get credit for the great video editing and soundtracks lol had me doing the Split Top Sawyer Dance at the end😂 or…. What I’m considering the dance.
I think just conceiving of something like this is amazing, let alone building it and to such a level of precision and beauty. It is so cool, I would be afraid to use it for anything for fear of damaging it!
The only problem with this as a work bench is that it looks so amazing I’d be afraid of ruining it. You did a damn good job on this.
Повністю відповідає моїй думці.
Agreed!! It's a stunning work of art!
5.5 minutes in, and I am already blown away once again not just by your creativity (which is in itself mindblowing) but the level of skill you bring. Top that off with pushing yourself beyond your comfort zone, and it is no wonder I eagerly await new content from you.
Thank you so much!! No progress unless it’s a little uncomfortable.
@@SawyerDesign So true. If we aren't failing, we aren't trying enough.
What a GREAT peace of design that works! I love it!
Greets from good ol Germany
You Sir are the Artist of Function. You just happen to work in wood. I continue to be awestruck by every creation. Thank you for sharing your magic.
Absolutely beautiful.
I prefer the solid top as well. The opening in the split-top is just a catch-all for all the dust, chips, and that one tool you can't seem to locate.
Insane dude. That bench is un-re-al. Not only the workbench, but the video itself is world class.
As a US veteran suffering from PTSD and trauma from life’s ups n downs, I found woodworking as a way to cope and balance out life’s pressures. I find it quite relaxing, rewarding, satisfying, and sometimes complicated lol I love the masterpiece you’ve built. I would love to have the toys in your shop too. I love learning the various techniques and technologies used in woodworking. Great job my friend, a fan from MT
BEAUTIFUL , ITS A WORK OF ART, TO NICE TO USE THAT IS A REAL SHOW PIECE
Always shocked there's not a million subscribers to this channel, I don't even do woodwork and it's in my top 5. Thanks for the great content and videos
Thanks so much!
Not much can be said apart from what has been already. It is, of course, a unique perspective on a woodworking necessity and masterfully executed. It's my hope for you that your creation be added to the annals of woodworking history. Perhaps your bench design can come to be known with as much regard as Roubo's. Well done, sir.
Le plus bel etabli qui m'ai été donné de voir ,le plus complexe dans sa fabrication .Un grand coup de chapeau
Just do you, don’t ever care what people might think. It’s not built for them.
Absolutely the best looking bench I have ever seen. You sir are a master.
No mere bench; a nordic inpsired altar for prayer to the gods of the wood. B-e-a-utiful work.
A truly work of love and more so it’s a functional work bench that’s is a sweet art piece
Beyond amazing!
Beautiful, elaborate, precise, functional...and did I say..BEAUTIFUL!!!!
You sure are talented!
Too kind! Thanks So much, Andrea!
Caramba, o nível de perfeição é absurdo!
i was so delighted with the aesthetic of my Moravian workbench… until i saw yours. 😍
@@crassoverload I so agree. I’ve been laying out one. Now on pause. Lol.
As the builder of my own Roubo style bench, I can only say Wow!! Napoleon Hill wrote 'Anything you can conceive and believe you can achieve'. -Veteran '66-68
Man, that is badass. The structural engineer in me approves the use of arches wherever possible. Beautiful work, brother.
Yeah bring art nouveau back.. that workbench looks like an elven workbench in the Lord of the Rings fantasy world, I just love elven architecture because it's art nouveau..
I see a stunning bench like this and I picture Franc Clause working on it 😎
that is flat-smooth spectacular. outSTANDing. thank you.
I have been waiting for this!!! So excited to see this come together. Great execution sir!
Hopefully worth the wait! Thanks Scott
@@SawyerDesign It certainly was! Thank you.
ABOUT ALL I CAN SAY IS I LOVE THIS BENCH. LIKED AND SUBSCRIBED TO YOUR CHANNEL.CAUSE IF YOUR BENCH LOOKS LIKE THIS, I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE WHATS NEXT. 😮
This build earned a sub. Beautiful craftsmanship. Love that you made it your own
gorgeous design, fantastic craftsmanship, be proud my friend
Most people use a workbench to make a masterpiece but you made a masterpiece out of the workbench.
Wow ...it really AMAZING , thanks for sharing experiences , great job. Well done
you are the david foster wallace of woodworking: i would love to be able to give you a hug in person, but it probably wouldn't help much, regardless, wonderful stuff, and you make me wanna be better at woodworking and be a better person.
The only thing more sexy than watching a man working (literal) wood, designing and building extraordinarily beautiful creative and useful products and that is watching the same guy surf ! Amazing!!! Loved the techno phantom of the opera music around 18 minutes in. I don’t typically comment or subscribe (big deal, right?!) but this vid warranted it.
AWESOME!!! or - a piece of art that is more than a workbench
Dude, this is a sick bench. Way beyond me but that is why I watch your stuff. You are an inspiration. Keep these beautiful and crazy projects coming.
Incredible amount of work in this amazing build...WOW !
What a beautiful finish - to the arc of that trees' life....
wow I'm amazed by this masterpiece, congratulations it's beautiful
Sweet baby jeebus... that is AMAZING... your level of creativity and skillsets are insane my friend .RESPECT.
I know that I'm only repeating what many have already said, but that bench is a thing of beauty. You should be proud of this one, for sure. I am certainly looking forward to seeing the plans come up for sale. Well done, amigo, and keep up the fabulous work.
Jesus… in a world where RUclips is bursting at the seams with workbench build vids, this is one of the dews videos that genuinely stands apart.. and from my perspective, that might be one of the most difficult accomplishments for a woodworker using the platform..
Much respect and blessings from Maui, gonna try to keep a closer eye on posts this channel uploads
This is not only a work bench it's a dining room table and piece of artwork as well. Ironically its much to beautiful to be a work bench. It's more of a look at and admire bench.
Ok come on man, that thing looks too good to be a shop bench. Fantastic craftsmanship. You turned a 600 year old beautiful wood into a work of art.
Oh my god!
One word: AWESOME!!!
Gerard
Thanks Gerard!
Saw this on Reddit, so nice to see the build!
I know nothing about woodworking but I couldn't stop watching this. It is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen to work on..It's like ART that is useful..Such talent..
If I ever ever get enough money, I will buy one of you as this is true craftsmanship. It is beautiful as in beautiful. The first time I saw a wood shop furniture, I would rather put it in my dining room and eat off it a be proud of owning it. I don't go to classical concerts but BRAVO any way 👏
Just when I think I've developed some skills, I watch builds like this.
BRILLIANT... ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!!!!!!
Amen
Retired, Veteran
I think I’d like to compliment this for what it is; an exercise in design and masterful technique. It is lovely to look at, very well made, and skillfully fitted. The hardware is superb. In the end, like many masterwork style pieces, it’s not super practical. However, you are a true craftsman. Well done!
This workbench is off chops mate!! Blown away by the intricacy of the design, the execution & the editing/videography. Hats off to you
Ok, now that is an awsome bench. I wish I could make something like this someday.
Here's a comment for you... Absolutely amazing!!!
In my opinion, this is not the pinnacle of workbenches modern or otherwise. It is beautiful and your skills are off the chart but this is a demonstration piece. A marketing tool for potential clients. It isn't a workbench. A workbench must be something that can be made quickly so one can get on with the real work. This beautiful piece is impracticle. Most woodworkers are hobbyists and have neither the skill nor the equipment to make it, but you know that. Again, it's a great piece and provides proof that you are someone that should be considered for high end commission work.
Just here to say thanks and help with the algorithm…. Legend
The Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer would've liked this one ! Fabulous design and craftmanship. ThX for sharing.
Saw some pissing and moaning about use the old growth lumber. With 46 years experience I find this bench completely sick. You did the material justice.
Awesome design and workmanship. Props from this 45 year veteran woodworker. I'll be keeping an eye on you young man.
One of the few NC 17 woodworking videos out there! Man, I was thinking (a rare enough moment in its own right), you better make something worthy of an ancient tree. Dude, you did it! I'm guessing any sponsor that sends you to a woodworking show is gonna insist you take along that bench. Now's the real challenge.... getting it to fit in the overhead compartment..... you got a fancy enough tool to do that? Keep up the great work.
Only one word to describe this build: "Amazing". Sir, you have mad skills. Totally blown away by your woodworking abilities. Thank you for sharing this video. What a beautiful bench.
Complete insanity. The way the wood gradients from light to dark and the tiniest of details im nothing but amazed. Applause from Sweden and thank you so much for this, best 24 minutes spent on youtube ever.
Thanks so much Alexander! I appreciate your appreciation of the small stuff!
Josh. Amazing, unique interpretation of what a workbench could be. One question: Are the arches Catenary curves? I use these curves for my bowls and dad and I built Catenary arches in our fireplace openings on request. The sexiness of these come from the way a woman’s necklace hangs from her neck, yet the strength of their use in bridges is unmatched. You have me rethinking my own workbench build, though I’d have to convince my wife regarding the Panto Rounter. 😮
Такой верстак достоин передачи по наследству несколькими поколениями!!!!!!
ROFLMAO when I saw half of your fingers covered in bandages! Nice! I can relate to that.
I don’t fuss with my shop furniture too much but, I’m glad there are people like you who do.
What a wonderful tribute to so ancient a tree.
I want that in my kitchen not my workshop. Just stunning.
First 10 seconds got me so excited. This build is stupid good.
Plans? Well skills aside, it takes a mad man to build this.
Still accually in disbelief, how stunning this is.
Thanks Borys!! Haha there’s gotta be other crazy people out there. You already know I’m a little nuts.
I skim watch everything on RUclips, even short videos. This I watched from beginning to end. Genius
The best workbench I have ever seen made on you tube….. greetings from down under Australia….stay safe!
This bench is insane! 🤩 But what’s even crazier is the time it probably took to film/ edit!! 🤯 Thanks for sharing 🙏🏼🙌🏻
Genius! This is far beyond epic. Here’s another new subscriber.
Been up a year with 623,000 views? Why is it just now showing up in my feed youtube? Your algorithm needs some adjusting.
Haha You’re tellin me! Thanks for joining.
It is great however I will never make one I do not have the patience or enough years left in my life to build one but you did a great job and it is something to be proud of.
That is amazingly fantastic! Beast Mode Mad Skills!
1750 Roubo workbench
2022 Sawyer workbench
The most beautiful bench ever seen in the modern era.
Greetings from Italy
I am a primarily hand tool woodworker - no power tools. I like basic, minimalist design with clean, straight lines and properly hand-cut joinery with no metal fasteners. I hate router roundover edges, unnecessary curves and racing stripes made out of contrasting woods. I think wagon vises are inferior to traditional tail vises and will never understand people who run a router with a chamfer bit in their workbenches' dog holes. HOWEVER...
This design just blew my mind. I've watched the video three times since you posted it a few days ago and I can only say I am in awe of your skills, both in design and craftsmanship. The way the arched legs get thinner at the top of the arch is just such an elegant detail - which is hard to admit for someone who hates curves! Truly elegant design and perfect execution. I'm not about to go out and buy a pantorouter just yet, but I really want to thank you for showing this old fart some new perspective. I would be proud to work on this bench - even if it looked wildly out of place in my shop.
Have you considered adding some dog holes on the front legs to help support longer boards, panels, doors, etc. to work on their edges? I have a sliding deadman on my (tradtional) Roubo workbench that gets a ton of use, but I think some well positioned dog holes along the right side of the arch would probably get you most of the functionality of a deadman - and the asymmetrically placed holes on just the right side of the arch would look sick in this design.
Anyways, thanks again for the video. Truly inspiring stuff.
P.S. - You made the right decision in going with the solid top. Split tops are just silly.
I absolutely love this. Thank you for giving it a chance. Can’t tell you how much I appreciate that and thank you for the kind words.
Definitely think some dog holes or perhaps a hook that works in the dog strip to support long boards is in order. I decided that should be done as needed as it’s not something I have needed to do a ton and I didn’t want to drill the wrong hole.
This comment really made me smile. Thanks again for taking the time. Take care
That is the most. Beautiful workmanship I have ever seen. Than you for showing.
Doug fir and mahog (?) nice combo. I love working with doug fir. Lovely build. Amazed how you captured so much of it on camera. Even your struggles to stand the beast up.
Thanks Thom!
im very amazed at what im seeing here absaloutely beautiful
Making us all drool with all 10 of your fingers, as usual!!
Damn. I’d put that in my living room. You aced it. Masterful.
Thanks so much Robert!
Ok hands down my favorite take on the roubo workbench! Amazing work, my workbench is now bowing down screaming “we’re not worthy!” Ala Wayne’s World 🤣
I got a strong opinion for ya... Love it!!!! So rare that form is achieved so well without compromise of form 👍 a ten 😁
that is simply stunning, way too nice to suffer the punishment that a workbench goes through. I'd definitely have it as piece of art furniture inside the house
Nothing short of bad ass!! Great video.
This is a REAL masterpiece! It's not just work, it is art.I lovve it Bravo! Congratulation!
Cet etabli est juste un chef-d'œuvre.
This morning, I saw that there was a new video........."oh great, I'll look at it tonight, it will be my reward of the day".....soooo, I looked at it this evening. As usual, blown away!
So glad it was worth the treat. Thanks Richard!
Dude! Well done!!I keep watching this and strive for your vision and determination. Eventually.. I'll destroy a project trying to match your skill. Eventually..
Congratulations on making the most beautiful and the most insane Workbench of the human History!! As always, you are absolutely the most underrated Craftsman on RUclips. You deserve billions of Subscribers.
Thank you for the Video.
