I talked to my doctor about your videos. I told her that your videos are no less then ten times more effective than my anti-depressants. When ever I have trouble getting out of bed I simply watch one of your videos. After the video is finished I feel able to leave the bed. If it is a weekday then I head off to work and try to apply as much passion to my engineering as you do to your art work. If it is a weekend morning I force myself to go into my workshop and there I try and be as creative as I can be, even when the task is as mundane as fixing my wife's blender. Perhaps someday I will try somthing more artistic. So, in closing, thank you very much for making and sharing your videos. I don't imagine that you set out to make them in an effort to battle depression half a world away. Nevertheless they do, and for that me and my family thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Sincerely, Leo
Tip: after masking, you may hit the workpiece with some clear coat and let it dry. Then paint second colour. This helps with bleeding/wicking under the tape. They look supe cool!
@@urituchmanpigeon, well your ideas keep working because I come back every time to watch your amazing videos. Keep up the good work my friend and I'll keep watching.
When I watch Uri, I get this overwhelming sense that if we were friends in real life, I would be endlessly fascinated by him and he would be completely bored by me.
This is (as usual) very cool. The one tip I would give you is: after masking, give it another coat of white to seal the mask, then paint the black...this will stop the "bleeding" of color under the mask.
A-B-S-O-L-U-T-E-L-Y Beautiful. Nope, real shoes could never substitute for these, you are STILL fantastic at what you do. Showing how you do everything, using the simplest of tools, is an amazing craft and wonderful entertainment. Thank you as always URI.
'Pine is not very delicious.' 'Four more of these baba ganoushes and we can make an omelette.' More words of wisdom from our favourite mad craftsman Uri Tuchman.
I kind of want the laces to dance around. Kind of like a “wacky wire” carnival game. Make them look like they are dancing a bit. I really like what you have created here. Lots of fun.
In Uri's head: "I don't know what it's good for or if it even have a purpose, but I will build it anyway. Speakers in shoes? Here we go!" Btw: if you take "The sound of his steps make me shiver in fear" way to literally :P
@@manuelamendes5766 yup, a left and a right. Two feet, and two ears. The thing you'll be keft wondering later is... Was God planning on these speakers when He gave us both two feet AND two ears? And, was He expecting Uri to build them for us?
"And here we have an artifact from the year 2020...some say the ancients used footwear as sources of musical playback, others assert that the creator of this pair was insane. The jury is still out."
@Josh Brown uri is from germany so why would you call this dutch? please get youre facts straight before opening youre mouth @ uri why didnt you use a smaller bluetooth?
@@MrMoonjo here in America when a lot of German settlers came the Europeans already here had trouble pronouncing Deutsche and instead called them "Pennsylvania Dutch" and later just simply "Dutch". Unfortunately the name stuck and with all the anti-German sentiment in the first half of the 1900's nobody was in a hurry to correct the name. Where I live in America there are still large populations of people who speak German in their homes as a first language and celebrate many German holidays and some of which include a "wooden dutch shoe march" where everybody gets together and walk down Main Street, playing music, and wearing old clothes (1600's style) and wooden shoes of a German design that are incorrectly labeled "Dutch shoes".
@@MrMoonjo That's not what he was saying at all. You're misinterpreting his intention, and being quite rude about it. The joke is not that these are "real" dutch wooden shoes, but that Uri has made an improvement upon wooden shoes. Don't be such a jerk.
Uri you are so talented with all design aspects and creating. A true artist and craftsman in every sense of the word. I also like how down to earth you are and how you make yourself laugh a lot! Don’t ever change your awesome!
What a wonderful execution of that idea! I love that they are not "photorealistic" shoes but have that look about them that they are a prop. And when you know what they are, it makes perfect sense. Great hand work at carving them out. I was soo nervous when you carved close to the edges that just got thinner and thinner and.... Uhh. My nails.
Whilst not huge, the presence of a heatsink on the amp does imply something of a heat dissipation problem in the enclosed sole of your shoe... best not drive them too hard :D
Uri Tuchman, I was going to say the same thing about heat. Could you hollow the shoe out more to give it more air? And maybe a passage opening up under the laces? They look magnificent, BTW. ;-)
Great work :) If I may give a tip for masking and painting, first do a ground color, white in this case, then mask, and then do another coat of the ground color, that way the next color doesn't bleed under the masking tape :)
Some forstner bits would work quite well and be much quicker/cleaner than the hole saw bits. But I always like watching you create these masterpieces with minimal power tools!
I would love to see more tool builds, but I think you've done them all. Hammer? Check (at least a couple) Saw? Check (a hand {shake} saw, and some others) Plane? Check (doubly so), Chisels (and even chisel holders)? Check Lathe? Check Scroll saw? Check Knives, gouges, gravers? Check and check and check Brushes? Check Bar clamp? Check Test indicator? (A most holy) Check Marking gauge? Check Safety glasses? Check I suppose you could build a vise, and I am amazed that you don't have (or at least haven't built) a power graver. You could make a file or a rasp. I almost fear to see you build all of these, because if you did, there wouldn't be any tools LEFT for you to build.
My breath catches everytime you take a knife and like really dig it in because I keep forgetting they're not actually leather shoes. I so love your work Uri!
I feel like an idiot. I thought you were putting the speakers into actual shoes. What was I thinking! You are a genius when it comes to making things. I have loved everything you've made.
I heard an old quote: "With genius comes screw ball." Pretty much if you are smart chances are you're a little whacky by other people's standards. There is nothing wrong with it though. Haha
brother recently discovered your channel but I soon became his follower I think the things you do are incredible you are a true craftsman I love to see the way you work with tin and other raw materials from Portugal RESPECT
Nicely done, sir. Once again your craftsmanship has shown to be superb and you have created something iconic and unique. Thanks for sharing this video.

"Pine is not very delicious"
Would love to see a video of you ranking your top 5 woods by deliciousness.
Funny enough, for most pine trees the soft white layer just under the bark is edible ..and doesn't taste bad really.
I think everyone has weird, cool ideas that they will just never follow through with. Thank you for always following through with yours.
Brilliant!
I can imagine Elvis singing 🎵 "but don't you, step on my Bluetooth shoes"🎵
this comment deserves way more upvotes
"Don't think it should be too complicated."
This is what you say when making a square box to put speakers into.
yep
I love how, though 90% of your work is done by hand, you aren't afraid to use power tools in the rare instances where it's necessary.
Tip: after masking, you may hit the workpiece with some clear coat and let it dry. Then paint second colour. This helps with bleeding/wicking under the tape. They look supe cool!
"Four more of these baba ganoushes and we can make an omelet."
Sounds delicious.
I loved that! Gonna start saying "one more of these baba ganoushs"
Epic. Just epic😂
What makes you look at a speaker and think "that should be a shoe?". I love all of your videos
Or vice versa
Honestly, I just wanted to make speakers and my shoes where laying around and I thought, "yeah, that could work"
@@urituchmanpigeon, well your ideas keep working because I come back every time to watch your amazing videos. Keep up the good work my friend and I'll keep watching.
When I watch Uri, I get this overwhelming sense that if we were friends in real life, I would be endlessly fascinated by him and he would be completely bored by me.
Now you mention it, I feel the same
perfect for soul music!
Gotta be swing music from wing tips, right?
Yet another build where my response is a mixture of "What did he just-?", "Why would you even-?", and "That's really freaking cool."
Some don’t suffer from madness, they enjoy it.
This is (as usual) very cool.
The one tip I would give you is: after masking, give it another coat of white to seal the mask, then paint the black...this will stop the "bleeding" of color under the mask.
It is indeed a joy to watch and listen to somebody using properly sharpened tools, I thank you
Everything you touch turns to gold.
You are incredibly and absurdly creative, talented, and intelligent.
I envy your knowledgeability and skill!
A-B-S-O-L-U-T-E-L-Y Beautiful. Nope, real shoes could never substitute for these, you are STILL fantastic at what you do. Showing how you do everything, using the simplest of tools, is an amazing craft and wonderful entertainment. Thank you as always URI.
I think you have a few loose screws but they seem to be the right screws to have loose.
Great Project.
Oh my god he didn't just make one shoe speaker.
He made a pair.
The madman.
- Oh yeah, big deal, just shoving a pair of speakers into some shoes isn't a big deal.
- (actually sculpts two wooden shoes)
😱
Great work man!
Your chisels are always so sharp its a pleasure just to watch them cut
Who doesn't love this guy?
I was smiling the whole way thru.
Your craftsmanship, skill and ingenuity, really are inspirational.
'Pine is not very delicious.'
'Four more of these baba ganoushes and we can make an omelette.'
More words of wisdom from our favourite mad craftsman Uri Tuchman.
Uri's projects are simultaneously driven by the forces of ridiculousness and brilliance.
I adore the perfection and absolute absurd surrealism of the final result.
Read "Shoe Shaped Sneakers" I thought that made sense.
Nothing ever makes sense in the Uri Tuchman world
@@maherzad true
Glad it wasn't just me. Was quite looking foward to seeing how he modified some sneakers to look like that.
same lol
Speaker shaped sneakers
Fantastic project! A classic pair of wing tips are always in style!
would be pretty cool to make the "laces" out of audio cables, with the aglets being the 3.5mm audio jacks
That was incredible. Now all you need is a pair of DM's for the sub woofers.
I kind of want the laces to dance around. Kind of like a “wacky wire” carnival game. Make them look like they are dancing a bit.
I really like what you have created here. Lots of fun.
Your craftsmanship is over the top, Fred Astaire would love to own these shoes.
In Uri's head: "I don't know what it's good for or if it even have a purpose, but I will build it anyway. Speakers in shoes? Here we go!"
Btw: if you take "The sound of his steps make me shiver in fear" way to literally :P
I wish I had that level of creativity and skill.
Your projects make me very happy. I smile for a long time. Thank you very much, Uri.
Brilliant! I love the idea of making something look a certain way but behave like something completely different. Excellent attention to detail.
Here comes the Shoe-Stopper!!!! you make me happy , happy man.Cheers!!
So good !!
My brain: wow that's a lot of craftsmanship and skill that looks really hard to do I'd be so nervous....
Video:contiues*
Me: HE MADE 2 OF THEM?
My thought exactly. Lol all I could think was wtf did this second come in at! I was very surprised
You need a pair don't you?
Yeah I had the same thought
@@manuelamendes5766 yup, a left and a right. Two feet, and two ears. The thing you'll be keft wondering later is...

Sir... that's awesomeness with laces an Bluetooth. Amazing skill and perciverance
You continually amaze me. Your inventiveness, inspiration, and perspective. Next level.
Dancing shoes that play there own music! How fun :)
Traditional Dutch People: We make wooden shoes.
Uri Tuchman: Hold my hand-made mechanical pencil...

Josh Brown, I'm so very glad that the first comment I read was about those old wooden shoes! I actually inherited a pair of traditional ones as a kid!
@@isaiahcampbell488 i know this but thats isnt a reason to call this wooden shoes from the dutch real dutch wooden shoes are way different
@@MrMoonjo That's not what he was saying at all. You're misinterpreting his intention, and being quite rude about it.
The joke is not that these are "real" dutch wooden shoes, but that Uri has made an improvement upon wooden shoes.
Don't be such a jerk.
This entire video I could not stop thinking that these are what it would look like if the dutch made counterfeit shoes.
I am quite impressed by them.
Anyone else would have taken shoes and made them speakers. I love that you carved shoes and made them speakers!
How can you not love everything this guy makes?
Uri is the only person who can make random items awesome
Lovely as always!!! You are sooooooo out of the box and anything ordinary! A true inspiration! Thank you for sharing!!
Uri you are so talented with all design aspects and creating. A true artist and craftsman in every sense of the word.
I also like how down to earth you are and how you make yourself laugh a lot!
Don’t ever change your awesome!
Omg the connecting cable makes the rest of the show lace ❤️
Man. I just love everything you do! One of my absolute favourite channels on the RUclips thingy. 👌🏻
I think the shoes are realistic enough. Wonderful work!
I won't be surprised when you make the shoes tap dance to the music from the speakers. You da man!
What a wonderful execution of that idea! I love that they are not "photorealistic" shoes but have that look about them that they are a prop. And when you know what they are, it makes perfect sense.
Great hand work at carving them out. I was soo nervous when you carved close to the edges that just got thinner and thinner and.... Uhh. My nails.
Uri you are truly a mad scientist for good. Awesome!
You sir are a mad genius and I am blown away with every video you come out with.
Perfect for listening to sole music!
What a fantastic idea and then creating it in front of our eyes! Amazing! You made smile through out the whole video. Enjoy them!
I love how you never explain WHY you make things like these
Whilst not huge, the presence of a heatsink on the amp does imply something of a heat dissipation problem in the enclosed sole of your shoe... best not drive them too hard :D
You're probably right. these are for casual shop music so hopefully it'll be fine.
@@urituchmanpigeon Fingers crossed! Nice job on the shoes though...
Uri Tuchman, I was going to say the same thing about heat. Could you hollow the shoe out more to give it more air? And maybe a passage opening up under the laces? They look magnificent, BTW. ;-)
@@Galt4570 yeah, I can open a vent hole all the way to the speaker it self, it well still be covered but maybe it's something.
Relax, these are casual shoes... if he wanted maximum performance he'd of carved a set of drivers shoes.
This idea is national treasure.
Love them, they just scream Uri. Thanks for sharing.
Carving pine is a real pain in the backside but you've managed to make a really beautiful project with it. I love it, it's very polished 😉
Shoes + speakers.. Yeah, why the heck not. Great vid!
Great work :) If I may give a tip for masking and painting, first do a ground color, white in this case, then mask, and then do another coat of the ground color, that way the next color doesn't bleed under the masking tape :)
I just finished the tool tour video, and now this - what a lovely afternoon.
"pine is not very delicious"
OAK on the other hand, pan-seared and paired with a glass of robust red.....
Aidan haha I have been looking through the comments to see if anyone else picked that up!
So funny!
Uri always looks to me as if just casually drop by in a shop and starts working, anyway URI ,AWESOME.
this is what happens when you crossbreed a master artist with a master craftsman. amazing work.
Some forstner bits would work quite well and be much quicker/cleaner than the hole saw bits. But I always like watching you create these masterpieces with minimal power tools!
I thinks it’s amazing he went all the way to the Amazon’s in order to source the components he used.
Hahaha I noticed that too. Such dedication!
I would love to see more tool builds, but I think you've done them all.
Hammer? Check (at least a couple)
Saw? Check (a hand {shake} saw, and some others)
Plane? Check (doubly so),
Chisels (and even chisel holders)? Check
Lathe? Check
Scroll saw? Check
Knives, gouges, gravers? Check and check and check
Brushes? Check
Bar clamp? Check
Test indicator? (A most holy) Check
Marking gauge? Check
Safety glasses? Check
I suppose you could build a vise, and I am amazed that you don't have (or at least haven't built) a power graver. You could make a file or a rasp. I almost fear to see you build all of these, because if you did, there wouldn't be any tools LEFT for you to build.
My breath catches everytime you take a knife and like really dig it in because I keep forgetting they're not actually leather shoes. I so love your work Uri!
Amazing work Uri. You have a rare and unique combination of creativity and talent.
Fabulously quirky, I love your videos and your beautifully made projects. Thanks for sharing them with us.
This man is a mythical being, he can do almost anything with ease perfectly
A shoe/shaped hand plane would be pretty spiffy, and dare I say, possibly ergonomic as well!
Beautiful job Uri. Somehow tap dancing music seem appropriate.
Yri, great idea, and great craftsmanship. I can hear Dino or Frank coming out of those! LOL
One of your best pair to date mate.
The summum of kitch. So weird, I love these hi fi shoes. Please continue with such weird initiatives....
The first time I read the description I thought it said “Making Shoe Shaped Sneakers”, which seemed like setting the bar pretty low. This was better.
That René Magritte thumbnail is spectacular!
Absolutely ridiculous. I love it 💜💜💜
Uri you seriously have to be one of my favorite channels on RUclips. I love your work brother
I feel like an idiot. I thought you were putting the speakers into actual shoes. What was I thinking! You are a genius when it comes to making things. I have loved everything you've made.
Very fun-A breath of fresh air-Thank You Very Much!
... a lot of folks on RUclips are of the ... 'Hey everybody, look at me, I'm nuts!' variety (yawn) ... but Uri? ... he's the real deal
I heard an old quote: "With genius comes screw ball." Pretty much if you are smart chances are you're a little whacky by other people's standards. There is nothing wrong with it though. Haha
Uri's not nuts, he's magnificently eccentric. Art is a spiritual calling.
As I saw the beginning I thaught you would start playing golf. Again a very nice and suprising project. Thanks a lot for the nice video.
You are a true craftsman. Great job...
A very fun project, thank you for sharing it with us.
