I usually don't comment but there's something to be said about how beautiful his work is, the presentation in the video, and the ambiance it creates. So extremely underrated
Like watching someone from 150 years ago ply their expertise, calm working environment and dedicated skill. I look forward to every video he posts, just as a relaxation tool!
Though the beauty of that table is astonishing, my favorite part of the whole video is that not one power tool was used. I love that the old ways are being preserved. Please keep it up!
It’s very nice to see someone actually create something with their own hands and som hand tools instead of all these cnc cutting and assembling videos. Beautiful work
Just aquired a bunch of old wooden planes, looking forward to getting them up to speed so I can get off the electric tools and do it all by hand. Great job on the table too. 👍
@mrchickadee been a minute since I checked in but holy your video quality has jumped 10 fold. Your dop (director of photography) is really on it. So much beautiful work. Please don't change the audio format ever. I find it so relaxing.
This is wonderful filming and editing, and outstanding woodworking skills. Very beautiful to watch. Thank you, I enjoyed it very much. I just bought a cherry slab to make myself a desk, and while I will be mostly using power tools, it still inspires me to continue working on it just from seeing the incredible grain and subtlety of this cherry table.
You are THE best woodworker on RUclips, and I watch hundreds. Your attention to detail is extraordinary. Please keep posting videos and thanks for sharing.
Always so inspiring. In addition to the incredible craftsmanship, there is not a single piece of waste in the process. No sand paper, no tool that cannot be sharpened, no wasted blades, and what remains is a stunningly beautiful table, and wood shavings that can be used to heat. And cat. :)
Mr. C is back. Outstanding craftmanship as always. The grain on that wood was absolutely beautiful. Congratulations to Mrs. C for the cinematography as well. A key part on these videos. Cheers.
It is very nice to see that there are still some people who prefer to do woodwork the old hard-laboring and old school way. (Nothing wrong in using electrical tools. I do so at my place of work as well) it is just nice to hear a hand saw sound and all the sounds of manual tools...
We have a 17th century farm table passed down to me from my Mum. It's still in daily use. I think that one of your lucky family members will be sitting at this table in 300+ years. Beautiful craftsmanship. Thank you. Good to see that the foreman also approves.
I am an old school master carpenter, but at my age now, I could not do all completely by hand, I am very spoiled to using my power tools, I still do a lot of hand detail work, I just love seeing real craftsmanship.. That had to have taken at least a weekend to do, doing it all by hand... Thank you so much for sharing.. And reminding us, old fashioned carpentry is awesome..
The way you were walking with that slab at the start of the vid, it looked like you were going to, or just finished, bludgeoning someone to death with it. Lol.
There are two moments of grace: when we see you doing the object and when we see the finished object. Never the feeling of work as there is respect for the wood and the tool. Thank you for these beautiful moments.
Make sure to make your wife dinner to christen this table as her camerawork is very impressive and makes the whole video a complete work of art! Love the beautiful table, just wish I could smell the shavings from those planes.
Quartered cherry has so much visual interest to offer and it just doesn't get enough credit for it. I suppose people want light wood or dark wood, and not much in between, but it's a delight . I think most folks watch youtube these days for entertainment - to dream about what they could do rather than looking for things they will do. You've got the pieces of hand work together in a way that I hope some folks can appreciate - there is joy and physical stimulation in working that way. It's too bad there isn't a feel-o-meter. it doesn't by rule have to change what we make - working by hand, but it gives us time to see and discern that's important. And it leaves the work with more life. You know that I think the shavings from the try plane are just dandy - same with the smoother. Everything goes together naturally - the wood offers resistance to work, but it isn't a fight or exasperation and it doesn't have to be. no red face, no haunched over, no tools jamming...
You know I had a prof slab sawyer angrily proclaim that had to be sycamore wood, I guess many people dont know the lovely rays many woods can have if quartered. I work by hand for the enjoyment and practicality of it. I can make anything I need in this 12x15 workshop, without the noise, PPE and expense of power tools. Yes it takes me longer, and no I dont care. No one NEEDS to make their own furniture, and if you do, work the way you enjoy, is how I feel. I get great joy from these tools, and none from power tools, though I understand their utility to those pushed for time. I truly love the gift these planes give, that is, the ability to dimension and finish a piece in one process, regardless of the grain or knots, and never needing anything like sandpaper, scrapers and other BS. Just plane the wood, and its done, feels like polished marble and shines like a mirror. All this cherry came from one tree a neighbor gave us, it all had this nice curly wavyness to the grain, real lovely stuff to work with. Thanks for the comment sir.
Daamn. The title sounds like some fancy dish name in the good and expensive restaurant 😁 i like Your videos. No music just a sounds of the tools and surroundings.
Oo man I have so much respect for you, I will never have any talents like you, and probably half way I run out off patience and would through it it the chimney
No words. There are no words for this. I've been doing some hand tool woodworking since right about the time this channel posted its first video. My projects... Work. They look decent, and function, but are basic and too rough to be anything more than amateur work. This guy has been showing me what master work looks like since Day 1. An absolute master.
Definitivo... Me gusta la carpintería! No me canso ver estos vídeo. Cuando tengamos nuestra casa terminado, voy a hacer un pequeño Taller apartado para lidiar únicamente madera y lo que haga no sera para vender, sino para tener en casa o regalar a mi familia.
I also usually don’t comment but you’re just such an inspiration. I would love to see a video where you go through your hand tools and explain what they do and what scenarios you would use them in. So much appreciated!
In the first seconds i felt , this is special ! Just what im looking for. Real craftsmanship , no fancy noisy powertools wow ,that is great ! thank you Sir !
In a world overwhelmingly consumed with bigger, better, faster… Milwaukee power tools and Diablo saw blades tend to steal the show. But, this is real. This is the real stuff. What makes you want to make a family, move to the hill country and learn to use your hands and enjoy life. Even if this process is slower, it’s real. Not this fast, unnatural thing. It’s real. Thanks you Mr. Chickadee.
It’s very rare that I make any comments but the quality of the work that you produce is brilliant and your videos should be used as a training guide for any young woodworkers just starting out thanks for all your efforts In producing these videos and for keeping hand tools the music that they make alive
There is something Unusually hypnotizing or entrancing about this video. I found myself really spacing out on the work or the sound or something. I’m not really sure. But having just the sounds of the tools working and no speaking or music. Really awesome. And the work of course just took it over the top. Or the other way around. Not sure. Just very focused and u can tell. Great stuff! Thx.
I could seriously , being an ex navy guy enjoy doing some serious fret and clockcase work with a fellow ex leatherneck . yeah , i do believe i could . i enjoy Handwork much as you do with older , original tools , as well as some finer machine tools as well . i've been building grandfather , regulator , and shelf type clocks and furniture since 1986 . i am a retired aviation cabinetmaker and finish carpenter by trade . i enjoy blacksmith /machinist work as well . Recently i've gotten a bug in my brain , wanting to build a new home . in the japanese antiquated post and beam style , with modern insulation , wiring , etc . but remaining , structurally as original as possible . i enjoyed your other video on the japanese type building addition. quite informative . i have ordered several sets of blueprints from Japan on Samarai type estates . This is the direction i am headed into .
This Channel must be one of my first 5 or 10 video's I subscribed to... He has come so far since then and it is highly noticeable in his Historic woodworking skills. I bow too thou, Sir ☺
Mighty fine craftsmanship my friend. Nothing more satisfying than a plane removing wood and the paper thin curls spinning out of it, beautiful piece there

I can't believe I only just now am discovering this channel. Excellent video!
I agree with all the comments about the great woodworking, but I also appreciate the wonderful videography. Great job!
Thank you mr Chickadee for your valuable lesson in self discipline!!
Peace, Righteousness, humility, & Simplicity are blessings that are blessings to the obedient & those that behold him so-doing.
It’s very nice to see someone actually create something with their own hands and som hand tools instead of all these cnc cutting and assembling videos.
Beautiful work
Sounds like some rock hard cherry…loved the sound of the saw during the first rip
Mr. Chikadee, you are a very trully artisan . my respect for you and congrats !!!
This was the best Music video I've seen. And we get a beautiful, crafted table at the end also.
The cat has performed a quality check. It turned out great. 😊👍👍👍
Just aquired a bunch of old wooden planes, looking forward to getting them up to speed so I can get off the electric tools and do it all by hand.
Great job on the table too. 👍
@mrchickadee been a minute since I checked in but holy your video quality has jumped 10 fold.
Your dop (director of photography) is really on it. So much beautiful work. Please don't change the audio format ever. I find it so relaxing.
Exceptional table! You sir are a true Craftsman, building legacy items that will last generations to come
few work like this 100% handmade.!👏👏👏👏👏👏
Excellent oldschool craftsmanship, beautifully filmed and edited.
the best hand tool tutorial on the internet.
man, the cinematography in this one is great
As usual, Charles did all the work.
What a beautiful table. Love the details. Thank you for sharing.
I strive to have the amount of patience that you have.
It's a pleasure to watch you at work.
This is wonderful filming and editing, and outstanding woodworking skills. Very beautiful to watch. Thank you, I enjoyed it very much.

My opinion to
Me too 😛
And apparently self-taught by watching videos of woodworkers and lots of practice.Unreal!
Always so inspiring. In addition to the incredible craftsmanship, there is not a single piece of waste in the process. No sand paper, no tool that cannot be sharpened, no wasted blades, and what remains is a stunningly beautiful table, and wood shavings that can be used to heat. And cat. :)
The catspector was very pleased with the end result😃👌
Mr. C is back. Outstanding craftmanship as always. The grain on that wood was absolutely beautiful. Congratulations to Mrs. C for the cinematography as well. A key part on these videos.
Cheers.
Simplicity and very beautiful. Thank you.
Superb craftsmanship. Liked the wedge clamping of the table top. Thanks for sharing.
Weekend Stuff
That sliding dovetail ..... unbelievable!
I liked the part with the kitty! The kitty pedistal making video was cool too!
It is very nice to see that there are still some people who prefer to do woodwork the old hard-laboring and old school way. (Nothing wrong in using electrical tools. I do so at my place of work as well) it is just nice to hear a hand saw sound and all the sounds of manual tools...
Your projects retain the perfect amount of rusticity that makes me feel at home. Well done.
The best part of all this is-- he is correct handed. I love it!
We have a 17th century farm table passed down to me from my Mum. It's still in daily use. I think that one of your lucky family members will be sitting at this table in 300+ years. Beautiful craftsmanship. Thank you. Good to see that the foreman also approves.
Even the way you put glue on boards is mesmerizing
Congratulations, very nice, old tehnia, and I'm a carpenter scluptor and I prefer this technique! I salute you 🇷🇴
I'm glad to see your new uploaded video again.
Finally! The making of table!
@21:35 that saw skill is something else!
I'm new to this channel... My word! No power tools!!!! My arms are sore just from watching!!!
I must have watched this video ten times by now. Fascinating!
thank you

The beauty of hand craftsmanship. More like art than furniture.
This master craftsman is true to himself, a rarity on utube.
The way you were walking with that slab at the start of the vid, it looked like you were going to, or just finished, bludgeoning someone to death with it. Lol.

this man's patience and craftsman ship is unequal
Saw & liked the cat post on Instagram, went back for the joinery. 😋🥰
That's a one hell of a table. He is the definition of a proper handyman

Hi
I am amazed by the quality of your craftsmanship.
Everything you touch turns as a piece of art.
thank you!
No words. There are no words for this.

You are an absolutely fearless woodworker. Huzzah.
Mr. Chickadee! One of your best builds ever!
Three Cheers for Mr Chickadee
holy canoli that was awesome, thanx Mr. Chickadee love all your videos
Watching this guy cut mortise and tenons is something else
Hail the master! Those sliding dovetails are so cool!!
Beautiful work as usual
Definitivo... Me gusta la carpintería!
No me canso ver estos vídeo.
Cuando tengamos nuestra casa terminado, voy a hacer un pequeño Taller apartado para lidiar únicamente madera y lo que haga no sera para vender, sino para tener en casa o regalar a mi familia.
A beautiful cat, table and video. Good for the soul, or so it seems.
feel blessed to be able to watch you work!
Outstanding. As always!
I also usually don’t comment but you’re just such an inspiration. I would love to see a video where you go through your hand tools and explain what they do and what scenarios you would use them in. So much appreciated!
Watch your work is my therapy. Real craftsmanship. Congratulations 👏
Everything on this channel is perfect...
Титанический и фундаментальный труд!!! Браво!!!
In the first seconds i felt , this is special ! Just what im looking for. Real craftsmanship , no fancy noisy powertools
wow ,that is great ! thank you Sir !
It was good to see that Charles was on the job for the final inspection. Utterly beautiful, interesting design.
I love the sounds of your saws.
It reminds me of my dad and his dad 👍🏼
Nice work !
Wow - wow - wow ! Unglaubliche Handarbeit!
In a world overwhelmingly consumed with bigger, better, faster… Milwaukee power tools and Diablo saw blades tend to steal the show. But, this is real. This is the real stuff.

Mr and Mrs Chickadee make some great videos.
That is a beautiful piece of furniture! Job well done.
You got mad skills with that hand saw.
What a great Table!, and your handtool skills too! Greetings from Berlin, Germany!
När jag ser era filmer får jag i bland känslan av att ni gör det omöjliga. Tack för inspirationen och det lugna tempot.
It’s very rare that I make any comments but the quality of the work that you produce is brilliant and your videos should be used as a training guide for any young woodworkers just starting out thanks for all your efforts In producing these videos and for keeping hand tools the music that they make alive
sawing in that dovetail by hand was really impressive
There is something Unusually hypnotizing or entrancing about this video. I found myself really spacing out on the work or the sound or something. I’m not really sure. But having just the sounds of the tools working and no speaking or music. Really awesome. And the work of course just took it over the top. Or the other way around. Not sure. Just very focused and u can tell. Great stuff! Thx.
Finally got to see him use a table saw!
Dovetail battens and wedged tenon joinery….wow, great stuff.
A beautiful table well made. A very nice cat, too. Thanks for the video!
Beautiful Mr. Chickadee! Nothing like the luster of a sharp plane finish! Many Blessings and Kind Thanks! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
Wow beautiful work this guy is a true craftsman
My arms hurt for you! Excellent work as always!
That’s some mighty fine work!
A beautiful piece Mr. Chickadee!

Best content on RUclips! 👍👍🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🤘🏻🤘🏻
Mighty fine craftsmanship my friend. Nothing more satisfying than a plane removing wood and the paper thin curls spinning out of it, beautiful piece there
That Sir is the finest hand tool made piece of furniture I've seen built. You are gifted.
