500 thumbs up, 0 thumbs down. It seems like you have the approval of RUclips's woodworking critics. I know how important their opinions are to you.
+Edan Coll
now the likes are at a ratio of 346.16 : 1... (like : dislike)
Clearly very good videos ;)
It is always good to watch some one with a passion in what there doing.
+Das TIER The initial likes are far more important than the viral/accumulated over time ones. It's what the critics actually think not the chump who came from reddit.
+Edan Coll Ah too late the trolls have come out.
+Edan Coll almost 9k likes and 56 thumbs down now, if someone thumbs down on video like this it must be by someone that doesn't enjoy woodworking, and they think a thumbs downing will stop other woodworking videos to pop up in their feed. too bad it doesn't work like that though!
9:21 For anyone curious, this is basically how vernier scales work. When you have 2 scales that move past each other, one with marks X units apart and the other with marks Y units apart, you can measure in increments of |X-Y| units. E.g., with one scale marked every 10mm and the other every 9mm, you can measure increments of 1mm.
Your confidence and speed of action always amazes me. Years of experience + making most of your own tools. Amazing skill.
Your height adjustment technique is exactly the solution I've been looking for. I'm working on an adjustable desk for our treadmill...so my wife and I can walk and work at the same time. Great job!
Fantastic project...and I love the cameo appearance by the baby.
One of your best build videos to date. And over 15 minutes? It's like Christmas in November! Seriously this was a great build video. I know people have been asking for this one for quite some time. Also the table turned out awesome. Love the knobs and the attention to detail and that was some very nice pallet wood. Thanks.
I know you've gained these skills through dedication, hard work, intelligence and being studious in your craft. However whenever I watch your videos all I can think is that you're just a miracle worker.
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos and inspiring countless others to understand, appreciate and hopefully create excellence.
How inspiring! How fortunate I happened upon your channel when I was searching for a portable, take-down laptop desk. Thank you your link, plans are easily readable and I am already halfway through this project, using reclaimed hardwood.
Thank you so much for giving us so much carpentry pleasure.
Marking the blade tooth like that was really quite clever. Consistency is the key to accuracy.
Always so much fun to watch your projects come to life.
I have to agree
i have no real enthusiasm for wood working or carpentry, but i find myself so captivated by your ingenuity and craftsmanship!
man this is rich with nostalgia. reminds me so much of woodworking with my grandpa. thank you.
Bro! You take woodworking to a whole different level!
Good to see two of your latest creations in the ending shot. I think that it's time you write a book on your woodworking exploits Matthias. Us less fortunate woodworkers need good reference material! Cheers
I can't believe you sat on it. What a solid and beautiful piece of work.
Every time I watch your tutorial videos I am in awe of some of your abilities and skills in woodworking.
Awe inspiring! This made me happy on so many levels. Love the final scene!
Love your videos and I'm always impressed with your design, engineering, and the efficiency and economy of your wood use. Your an amazing creator. Great job.
Absolutely brilliant, I have been meaning to make something like this for my wife for years and you have shown me what's possible
i never would've thought that a video about making a table would be interesting, but oh my god these videos are AMAZING. I CAN'T STOP WATCHING
IMO this is one of your best videos to date, totally awesome! Thank you!
Next video motorising the desk...
+Tom Howbridge - Haha, yes!
+Tom Howbridge I can never see too many mororits' made with Matthias' pantorouter!
+Tom Howbridge next next video arduino'ing it so it brings you your laptop when you sit down.
next next next video small desks take over world.
+Tom Howbridge Yeah but remote controlled and a build in cam :) Why make it easy when you can challenge your self. Man I love his videos.
+Tom Howbridge I can see myself hooking up an RC to the desk and just driving it around the house
All i can say is woah...your workshop tools and design are amazing
This guy is a master at making wood projects. I would love to have the adjustable computer table that he made. It's awesome.
I love how technical this is.
You make some amazing things Matthias, always a pleasure to watch.
Reminds me of those 70s flexible furnitures for children (when the baby grew up one just move the chair or table up a few pinholes) that where around where i live back in time, those concepts also came in sets for office use for all ages for everyone, genius idea this!
I love that You transform this into a modern set of furniture that still has the concept of flexibility but this time also looking good...
The jump test completes the build, awesome design!
You're a genius, dude. No qualms about saying that. Of all the videos on the web, yours are ALWAYS far and away the best in every conceivable category. Thank you!
Great build, really enjoyed this one
Matthias you still one of my favorites. Thanks for one more woodworking class!
MASTER CLASS - few people will achieve this level of proficiency - fascinating and very impressive to watch.
I'm from Russia. I do not know much English, but still perfectly understand you. Thank you for the interesting videos
u make everything looks so easy
Не перестаю удивляться этому человеку!!! Позитив полный! Жду с нетерпением новые проекты.
it's great watching Mathias's problem solving in action. no matter if you are interested in the final product or not the journey is great. I like tge simple methods to create repetitive features.
Good to hear someone working in metric for a change.
He's Canadian
Keith Healy metric is the best
The most pleasing thing about wathing these videos is watching all the joints slide in each other perfectly
pure pleasure

This is a great little table. As a retired engineer (chemical) I appreciate your approach very much.
WOW Everyone must wait on Friday mornings for a new video. I was viewer 80 then after watching I was viewer 578. Matthias is so meticulous. His stuff always fits together perfectly.
You are amazing at wood working.
This guy is good I was waiting if he was going to make some gloves out of wood. I wouldn't be surprised.
I'm so glad I found your channel back! Was a fan years ago. Today I was looking for a wheelable PC station and found this video.
I remember when you were setting up the shop! Cheers! Thx for that vid!
Your projects and videos keeps bringing me great joy. Fantastic result.
Such great work as always. I can watch you work for hours. 🍻 u da man my friend.
I was going to come here and say thumbs up for longer videos. Then I remembered how much I like your quick tips (like the fan repair)....
So I guess I'm just here to say I love all of your videos :)
+Mike and Lauren well, the short ones also take much less time to make. This one took way too much time!
+Matthias Wandel It was awesome to see you build a piece of furniture though. I always appreciate your unorthodox approach to woodworking, and love seeing you apply it to more traditional build. (Then again I love you machine builds too!) Thanks for all you do Matthias!
+Matthias Wandel legendary as always, thank you soo much for all you do for me :D, have a magnificent day :D
I have a lot of respect for you. You're very creative and know what you're doing.
Great design, well thought out, masterfully executed. Your talents and skills have created another top notch product.
I love how informed the design is by logic and well-thought-out use. It's a shame that mass-produced furniture abhors those principals. This seems like something fairly inexpensive and simple to produce on the larger scale. Well done!
Looks like u totally forgot the pocket screws. Nice build Matthias
+Patrick's work shop Ha ha!
Pockets screws are only for talented wood workers.
Every time I see a video like this, I'm just in awe. Thanks for doing what you do.
V-block as a depth and angle aid. Brilliant. Storing that one away.
Life must be easy when you a genius
nice job
Another great video to watch. A question I have is how you developed your skills at engineering things. Both your jigs and the items you build show a terrific level of ability in designing and building.
+Mike K Practice
Mike K his talent and desire to build are both gifts from god🙏🏻
I love the versatility of this design!
This is awesome. I'm still new to the whole woodworking thing, but these videos motivate the hell out of me.
dam.... you are awesome sir...
I agree
Hi Matthias, nice woodworking! I was wondering don't you want to lock the wheels to prevent the table from rolling away as you would inevitably apply forces on the table while you are working on it?
+SE45CX I don't type that hard.
Use your foot as break, maybe?
+SE45CX
I'm pretty sure he has slanted his floor slightly that it wants to roll towards the couch. And uses the benefit of static friction of the wheels to his advantage.
Your video and editing skills have become almost as good as your wood engineering skills! Awesome video, sir.
I've been watching and enjoying your videos for awhile now and I just want to say thank you for sharing your sketch up plans!
You are the dad from 'Honey, I Shrunk the Kids'.
what is this strange tool in a matthias wandel video? 6:34
a chisel (the metal sharp thingy) and a mallet (the brown hammer thingy).
+Nicke Pelaa I think it's a joke
Attila U Honest to goodness first thought: ‘The mechanical pencil?’
I really like your home made tenon jig. Its better than any commercially available jig and so versatile.
I love this part: it's too much work for the scraper alone. And out came a belt sander.
As well as: putting the insertion screw by using a drill bit backward!!!
There are so many good tips in this video: such as the home-made star knobs.
Many thanks for sharing such a great piece of work.
man I have an exam tomorrow what am I doing watching woodworking videos at 1 AM
Couldn't you use the box joint rig for the grooves?
+TheDrB0B no
+Matthias Wandel He was a man of many words.
+The Doctor was a man of too many words.
+desert eagles nuff sed
I have a feeling that you are a Professor/Teacher Matthias
You make it look so easy. I enjoy watching your projects
You are a genius. I heave a huge admiration for people like you, that makes wonders from almost nothing.
Great build and nice design!
I think this desk could make it on Kickstarter even at like 500 a pop. Combo standing desk and couch desk, make it work for beds too and people will be breaking open their piggy bank. Like if you agree, thanks.
+LoneWolf8773 If you were to sell stuff like this, you would want to start with small batches and more local. Kickstarter makes absolutely no sense for hand made furniture.
+Matthias Wandel - Ikea engineers are probably all over it!
+Matthias Wandel Why not? Kickstarter lets you have multiple options and set limits on them; you could simply have the lower unlimited tiers be things like a very comprehensive instruction tutorial and plans and such and then a limited top tier where you commit to a *max* of making as many or as few as you like. It doesn't get funded (be sure to do the math), everyone walks away, no feelings hurt. It gets funded, you make as many as you specified via limit. I definitely think local and few has its place but given you've released this online and have fans of varying levels all over the globe, something smart and limited online seems to make sense. I think if you are up front with shipping costs, people will still go for it. Please correct me if I'm missing something.
Another brilliant video - how nice it is that there's just a good commentary rather than pointless annoying music there's so much of on You Tube.
Nice! I see you designed it without the cross-support at the bottom this time. I absolutely love it.

IKEA aint got nothing on this guy

Beautiful!
I had a good chuckle at your baby just chillin' in his rocking bed at the end. Great project, as always..
I like the way you configured the adjustment for the height and the wheels are a great idea.
just checked out a couple of your vids, keep up the good work! Also you have an outstanding voice for presenting.
You know, for a guy with a wife and kid, you sure like knobs. So many knobs...
+GTAM4STER97 Maybe when the time comes, I'll switch them over to regular hex bolts!
Maybe one day...
+GTAM4STER97 What does that comment even mean?
+TomKaren94 it means a lot of little things a child can fiddle with and mess things up. not to mention the choking hazard.
TomKaren94 It means whatever you want it to mean my friend.
Don't let Izzy get a hold of it. He'll motorize it with a drill and drive it down the street.
Your creativity amazes me every time I watch a video.
Absolutely amazing. I've been looking for a reason to buy new tools and equipment. Well, I've been looking for an excuse... Thank you very much for contributing to my new obsession!
14:50 Small Matthias Wandel is very cute
Looks great! I would definitely build one of these if I had a use for it, but my MacBook sits on my lap just fine.
+Jer's Woodshop when I do work, I always use an external monitor and keyboard. At which point, my lap just won't do
What a fantastic project, great idea, well made, and fantastic instructions. Greetings and thanks for making these videos from West Cork, Ireland.
Fantastic work! I love the idea of using the old headboard as the top of desk.
You make it look like it it is so easy with those power tools but in reality it is not. I have worked on wood since I was a little boy, never had power tools, just a hammer, a handsaw and three chisels. It is nice to see a project done like this. Thank you for sharing. I have subscribed.
That hole offset adjustment is nifty. I'm really happy to learn that.
Love the way you work; "almost scientific, especially for a woodworker".
You have an amazing talent! And great job re-using wood!
You are the king of detail. Love all your videos man!
Watching you make things is SO satisfying!
Matthias, this video blew me away! You genius!
If I name you as the woodwork engineer I won't be wrong. Beautiful craftsmanship.
you really know how to work with wood. I am thought that i am carpenter but after that I started to see your videos many years ago i started to learn
Your nicest generation of computer desk yet!
This might be your best video yet!
Sir!!!! You and your TOOLS are super hero !!!!! amazing!!!
Sir you are very talented and a master. Much respect and your videos are much appreciated. Thank you
Pure genius,...always a pleasure watching your videos.
What a great project. This desk would be perfect for me as I spend a lot of time working on the couch. At the moment I'm using a little laptop table, which is really not adequate. Something larger would be nice. Perhaps after Christmas I'll give myself a late gift and make one. Many other projects waiting to be done before that.
that is one of the the best things i have watched you build you are truly talented keep going you inspire us to do more
