Very refreshing to watch a video with only sounds of a woodworker at his trade. No flashy graphics, no annoying dance music over the vid and no constant chatter about nothing. You have a new subscriber.
That was the only thing I didn’t like about the video. I have a harder time dancing while I watch without any dance music playing. I mean I still did it but it was a lot more difficult.
Stewart McManus or have it all planned it and start assembling and you are back and realized you flipped a piece at some point and didn’t flip it back and it’s too late now. It’s a feature. No one else will know, but you will.
I think everyone has that moment during a project when something doesn't go right and you question every decision you've made bringing you to that point. And all you can do is accept it and figure out how to fix it. Great job. I'm not a wood worker so everything you did in this video is sorcery to me. Very cool end product.
Totally agree John, mistakes are a part of life, and overcoming/fixing them can be tough but is better than giving up. Thanks for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
No obnoxious music in background and no unnecessary explanation about every move you make. You sir are the 1% who knows how to make videos. Great work 👍
oh no you got there in the end Tensegrity there is so many many creative minds at work creating these great talking points for any/every home..I am addicted to watching you may too L.O.L.
Very nice. You did a great job show how and what you did to create this fantastic conversation piece. No question people are going to talk about your creation. You did a great job editing your video and your woood working skills are excellent. Thanks for taking the time to show us what you did. From Missouri USA
OMFG.....THAT "OOOHHH....NOOOO" Voice clip at the beginning sums up so many of my tensegrity projects. Lmfao and our methods are nearly identical all round. Props to ya man.
Cool, David. Hadn't seen this sort of thing before. I gather the name comes from "tension' somehow? Love the 5 steps of grief part. lol. One tiny little tip for you, as I had run into this in the past. When you were holding down the piece and trying to scribe a line around for the mortise, a very tiny spot of CA glue will hold it in place long enough to get the lines scribed. Then with such a small drop of glue, it breaks off easily without issue. After many times having something slip while holding it, I tried that. Forget where I originally saw it mentioned, but it works like a charm.
😂Glad you liked it Don! Always love seeing you in the comment section. I think the name is a combination of "tensional integrity"... to be honest I had never heard the word before I started googling for what to name this project!
Oh sorry I missed the second half of your comment. That's a great trick! I will definitely try it. Do you use accelerants with your CA glue to get it to dry faster? I've been meaning to buy some but haven't gotten around to trying that out yet.
dk builds yep, I do use accelerant most of the time. I don’t use it when I need a little time For positioning. What you were doing would be one of those times when I wouldn’t. Tried all kinds of CA glue over the years including some exotic stuff from Loctite when I was in a machine shop, but my favorite right now is the 2P-10 stuff. Can’t say I’ve doing clinical trials, but my gut instincts is that it’s slightly better than others I’ve used. Just used it a few minutes ago making a little standoff For my table saw for cutting off pieces with a miter gauge. I’ll send you a picture of what I mean
You can make it but just make sure the tension of the string or cable in the middle is strong enough to withstand every weight that are stacking on top of the table. You don't want it to snap and have your dinner on the floor lol
Dude I can't even begin to describe how awesome this really is, seriously, if it's not your main money earner it should be, look at your end product online.... bizarre yes... fascination .... yes, essential for your home .... yes
Thanks, Sergio! I doubled up the line which helped a bit I think... but yes, it's not the strongest (and it has a bit of flex too). I wouldn't go sitting on this table :) Thanks for watching!

Nice!! I just made one of these tables from spare plywood, string trimmer line and some rusty wood screws. I made one because I didn't believe it would hold up anything and I was wrong! They come together pretty quickly and surprisingly sturdy provided you secure all the cables. I rigged mine like you'd rig a sailing ship--in one hole, out the other. The whole thing came together in about two hours. The next one I make will look more like yours. Nice job, I got some tips from how you did it.
I was thinking you could use 2 pieces of fishing line instead of 4, so each of the 2 pieces would run from the top, down through the bottom piece, across a small notched out groove to the next hole and up through the top, then tie of. Guaranteed that the 2 pairs would be the exactly the same length. I wonder if final adjustments would be easier too?
That's an interesting idea! It might make the final assembly easier and more symmetrical, but you'd have to cut some sort of a channel into the top and bottom platform pieces. I'm not sure how easy it would be to hide that channel.
You could have hidden your mistake, just glued over and no one would ever know. But instead you displayed it proudly. That makes you better than most men.
Nice project. Success in completion, tho it was clear during the very first cuts, on the support members, that you were not using the strongest grain orientation. Additionally, if you want to strengthen an "iffy" wood element, give it a couple of good soakings with a high quality clear wood hardener. I do turnings on found wood in the wild, and some of the best figured pieces are often very soft with rot. The hardener offers very nice results. I use either Varathane or Minwax from the big box store.

Thanks, Derek!! I've been getting lots of similar comments, so I'm going to focus on making similar videos from now on. Welcome to the channel!
Oh come on, don't you want a 30 second introduction "HEY GUYS WELCOME TO [camera change] DK BUILDS [camera change] ON TODAY'S SHOW..."
That was the only thing I didn’t like about the video. I have a harder time dancing while I watch without any dance music playing. I mean I still did it but it was a lot more difficult.
Pp
That "oh nooo" at the beginning is all of us. Great work!
Haha thanks Anthony! There were several more such moments but with much more vulgar language so I had to leave them out 😇
It sure is, carefully plane and sand one side, then screw and glue the wrong side !!!
Stewart McManus or have it all planned it and start assembling and you are back and realized you flipped a piece at some point and didn’t flip it back and it’s too late now. It’s a feature. No one else will know, but you will.
I don't get it

This is how these videos should be edited. No music, no chat, just work (and the occasional mistake 😅).
Great work. But you already know that.
Awesome thank you Usuario! Glad you liked the video style!

best intro to a DIY video
Thanks 😜
This is beautiful ❤️
Thank you Beatbender!
As a mate of mine says: Patience and perseverance took a snail to Jerusalem! Nice piece.
Nice saying, Kielan! Thanks for watching!
The only people that don't make mistakes are those that never make anything... Thumbs Up!
That is so cool - it looks so stable - amazing.
Thanks, H! It is quite stable!
Wow nice sharing..
Hola desde Argentina!!!solo aplausos hermosísimo trabajo!!!te felicito!!abrazo desde América latina
¡Muchas gracias Aries! ¡Saludos desde Estados Unidos!
Amazing work!! I’ve watched this a few times and my brain is still not capturing how this is even possible.
LOVE the format, dude. Not a word spoken, yet concise, and I could tell what your intention was in every shot. Keep it up. Got my sub.
this is so beautiful, really beautiful. the most beautiful "floating" wood work, I've seen so far.
Tensegrity is so inspiring. Makes me want to make my own designs.
Thank you! Do make your own and share with me the results so I can be inspired by you!
Felicitaciones. Desde Argentina!!
Gracias!
Great work. Thank u. God bless u
Thank you Antonio! :)
That is SO COOL !!!!!! Got to try it.
Thanks, gtx! If you try it, let me know how it turns out!
Bloody brilliant, great job.
Thanks, Sommer!! Turned out better than I even hoped :)
OMFG.....THAT "OOOHHH....NOOOO" Voice clip at the beginning sums up so many of my tensegrity projects. Lmfao and our methods are nearly identical all round. Props to ya man.
😆 Thank you EP! Good luck with your own tensegrity builds!
Loved your work and your video!
Thanks so much Mitsos!
Awesome job what a great project
Thanks Bryan! Glad you liked it 😃
*Great* _Design_

TENsion + inTEGRITY = tensengrity
Man when I heard that snap I felt it. Even better recovery. Thanks for the great video.
Haha thanks A.J.! Appreciate you watching!
This was mindblowing! You've inspired me to make one myself
Do it, Frank! And let me know how it turns out 👍
Imagine having a dinner table and chairs like that, would be really sick
So don't imegine
Thank for idea I made one
@@NoobSharkYT One table? That sounds really cool
This person did, and he can stand on it! Check it out: ruclips.net/video/IZTKL4f3azA/видео.html

Nice job!
Thank you Flavio!
Very good. Ronel from South Africa.
Thanks so much Ronel, glad you liked it!
Had to pause for a while when it was done. Masterfully my friend, masterfully executed.
Thanks, helyllefilten! It takes a while to think about and understand how it works for sure!
Good work.
I felt sure at 10:23 the short grain would break again! Nice job on some fiddly small components.
😇
Love seeing your projects, your content is really refreshing. Looking forward to future builds!
Thanks Maria!! Happy to have you as a viewer. More videos are coming for sure!
Good job 👍
Great work
Great job,, i like creativitas 👍🙏🙏
Thank you ichayos!
Ok,, 👍
That's a regular fishing line? I would not have thought that a fishing line would support so much weight. Nice job, dude.
Thanks, Sergio! I doubled up the line which helped a bit I think... but yes, it's not the strongest (and it has a bit of flex too). I wouldn't go sitting on this table :) Thanks for watching!
Parabéns ficou uma bela obra de arte
Muito obrigado!
I get it and understand it (mostly) but it still blows my mind.
And yes, daily dose enlightened me to these. But cool channel format, subbed

what.machine.that you use to grinding at the last?
I believe the tool you are talking about is called a "disk sander".
It can be made larger for coffee table, I believe. awesome idea, man.
It's beautiful.... 🤩
Thank you, Soumya!
Cool ... great job 👍
I like everything made of wood because it makes me feel healthy.👍
It is a very natural and healthy material, I agree!
I bet the poor tree felt differently as it was savagely murdered and then its body was disfigured.
