    I am a bit surprised that your shop doesn't appear to be heated. What a simple project, thank you. You make everything look so easy, wish my projects worked out that way. Until next time... Build safe.

    • @WoodshopDiaries
      @WoodshopDiaries  Год назад +1

      No, it's not heated. I like working with the big doors open, so I don't heat or cool it.
      I'm so glad you enjoyed the video and the simple project! Not every project turns out good. There are definitely fails. But that's just part of building haha.

    I'm going to tell you what you're doing RIGHT. You post these videos and go straight into the build. You don't waste time talking about crap. You don't waste time showing unnecessary footage. This is why I love and like all your videos! Thank you!

    Perfect timing for a Super Simple Shelf Project!! The wife was just showing me some plant stands she wanted, and this is something I know she’ll want!!
    Now I just have to finish watching so I can see how you did it, as well as listening for those hard words and bad planning! 🙈 😉

      Did you say "super simple shelf" three times fast? HA! You probably didn't struggle with it like I did, though 🙈
      If you and your wife love some simple plant stands, I'm not sure if you saw this one, but it's been a big hit (honestly, I was pretty surprised people liked it so much haha): www.woodshopdiaries.com/diy-tiered-plant-stand/
      It's even simpler than this one and is basically just a few pieces of scrap wood. Either way, I hope you enjoyed the video and happy building!! :)

    Shara, starting off my Saturday with another great video from your workshop. I just bought 500 more pocket hole screws and 250 foot of edge banding....so if your wondering whether you're influencing anyone there's your answer. I bet you roll your eyes when your Mom starts thinking up the next project for you. I am sure she's proud of you and the things you've accomplished so I recommend you keep building stuff for her with your special touch and with love. Thanks for Sharing!

    • @WoodshopDiaries

      Happy Saturday! I'm so glad you enjoy the videos and that's really crazy to think about--the influencing thing haha. I always hated the term "influencer" as I never wanted to be one--I wanted to be an "inspire-er" haha. But I guess that's really the same thing. I just always hope it's a good influence if I'm influencing anyone 😅
      It's funny you say that about my mom because I'm actually about to build her a whole new bedroom set (my dad has no idea haha). She definitely keeps me busy building--but I'm happy about it :)

    Instead of sending the curved side of the shelf, you should make a template on thinner wood and then trim shelf on the router with the coping bit. It would be already smooth with no sending needed

    • @WoodshopDiaries
      @WoodshopDiaries  Год назад +1

      I could--that would be a great idea if I was making several of these and would reuse the templates more than once. But since I was just making this one shelf, cutting and sanding wasn't too big of a deal on just four pieces.

      Yeah, when I started building it, I thought she was planning to have me stain it and when I asked her about what color she wanted, she had decided on paint. If I had known ahead of time that she was painting and not staining, I'd definitely have just countersunk and plugged the holes.
