- Welcome to my channel! My name is Greg, and this is The Roaring Woodwork.
This little mid-century modern whiskey bar was made out of a single sheet of plywood for the Rockler Plywood Challenge put on by the scholars and gentlemen of the Modern Maker Podcast.
that weave is stellar man, great work! thanks for sharing.
Thank you, Michael! I appreciate the kind words, and I'm glad you liked it. I hope to make this with solid walnut eventually!
That basket weave! This is kinda awesome. Great work!!!👍👍
Build It Burn It thank you! It was a fun way to play with plywood, for sure!
My favorite project from the challenge! 😍 And I love the little marquee sign. So smart!!
Pneumatic Addict you’re too kind! Thank you, Elisha! My brother got me that as a housewarming gift. Figured it would work well in the video and relieve some of the narration. Also - top secret - some of those letters are made with electrical tape since it didn’t come with enough R’s :) hehe
Beautiful build. Love the weave. Subscribed.
Thank you so much, Adam! The weave was fun. I started playing around with some woven walnut in my shop yesterday, too. I'm hoping to make another version out of hardwood this summer!
I love the woven plywood. Great idea.
Brad McCoy thank you, Brad. That was real fun. I still want to do this with solid hardwood!
Too cool 😎 and what great workmanship
SgtBrewdawg thank you. It’s held up perfectly and lives in my living room, but I still want to try this with hardwood one day.
Very creative use of plywood. The weave is a stroke of genius :)
Excelente trabajo. Un saludo desde Argentina.
wowww !!! You explain so well that I can see myself buying the tools !!! Thank you!!!
Good job! - I had built a cabinet out of plywood and 2x4's cut in half approx. 2x2. I had purchased a pocket hole jig on eBay for $18 and the drill was $5 so I used that. it makes very strong joints - holds really well. I have an old analog TV set on top - were your shelves are I did somewhat similar and use them for the converter box and whatever other stuff I want to put there. the whole unit is in a guess room so they can watch TV. Great project TY for sharing ours!
D.J. RadioRoy Spinner thank you! That’s awesome. Gotta love having your own furniture in the house. I keep this in my dining room and it’s full of whiskey and books and what not. I want to make another one out of hardwood.
I love that tweed weave door! It reminds me of a guitar amp. Great work as always.
First time watching one of your vids. Great job, love the weave. You have a new fan. Keep up the ideas.
Thank you! I appreciate that. The weave was fun and I can't wait to try it with solid walnut! My walnut buffet video is out next. Almost done editing :)
The woven front is really cool, some many awesome projects from this challenge!
matt mcl thanks, Matt! I agree - it was so awesome to see how many different pieces came out of the challenge. Super inspiring!
Great job 👍👍👍
I'm loving this challenge, so many great videos coming out so frequently it's amazing
Elijah French totally! It’s awesome seeing all of the creativity and out-of-left-field pieces. Did you see the plywood shark?!
Excellent build. I love the weave for the panel. Such a great idea.
Thank you! I only had about a week left when the idea popped into my head. I based this off of one of my guitar amps that has a tweed grill in front of the speakers, and wanted to play off of that idea.
Fun video to cap off seeing it built over on Instagram. I like how it came together.
Elliott Austin thanks Elliott! I hope my videography improves with the next couple of builds, but this was definitely a fun one.
That's an amazing idea and build.
Kudos too for using that riving knife! ;)
Muru Roa thank you so much! I really appreciate that. And I love the roving knife. I only take it out if I’m cutting a dado.
Lagavulin 16 is a fine choice. Also nice work on the cabinet, it’s really great.
That’s awesome!
Awesome. Great job
Ezra Sarge Sarge thank you so much, Ezra! I appreciate it! I’ll have some new videos up in no time!
Really great - please make more videos!
Thank you! I'm working on a few right now. Slow and steady!
Awesome job. Great to see new content and you knocked it out of the park with this one. Can’t wait to see what you have coming. Great design great build awesome video.
Pat Donovan thank you so much, Pat! I’m glad you liked this one. I’ve got quite a few coming up shortly!
Nice Build!!!
ryan detzel thank you Ryan! I had fun with this one. I’m just about done editing the footage for my next build, too!
Good stuff! Happy those plywood plugs worked out, and the weave looks great!
Bear Maked thanks man! Your table is awesome, too! I completely forgot to film the plywood plugs, but they look really cool. Kris from Mortgage & Mitre made them on his awesome chair as well. There were so many awesome pieces in this challenge.
Bear Maked or at least forgot to film gluing in and flush cutting the plugs 😬
Cool! Will have to check out his video next, trying to get through some of them, but there are so many!
And thanks for the compliment on my table!
Fantastic project love the weave door takes alot of time but worth it. This is favourite peice in the challenge so far can't see it being beat
Mark Armstrong thank you, Mark! The weave was quite fun. There were so many awesome pieces in the challenge!
Subscribed and liked. Loved the weaving idea!! Look forward to seeing more in the future!
scott atwater thank you so much, Scott. This was a super fun build. I’m hoping to play around with some hardwood versions in the near future! I think the weaving would look cool in some sliding doors in a credenza :)
great idea with the plywood weave!
Thank you! That was a fun challenge. I still really want to do this with solid walnut, weave and all.
That door looks amazing!! Didn't know you could do something like that with just plywood!!!
Alicia PR thank you! I had no idea it would work, either :) I did a test with some scrap plywood I had and just went from there.
That is awesome! I love the weaving. What a great idea. Good job!
Thank you! This was a fun one. I had no idea it if would even work :)
Loved it! I can definitely see/hear the teacher in you.
ciaomichaella thank you so much, Micha. I hope to keep improving these things!
hi, like your sign. now i can see what you are cutting. great idea
This was an awesome build. It came out incredible.
sureshot311 thank you! I appreciate it. I had a blast and can't wait to find out what the next challenge will be!
That panel is excellent!!! Awesome work!
CapnsKustomWorks thank you! I’m still a little surprised that it worked. I’m happy to report that it held up perfectly during its first big party.
Fantastic work & video. I’m so jealous of your tools and setup, lol.
Jessica thank you, Jessica! The shop is growing steadily :) I’ll have some new videos out soon with a lot of my newer machines that I upgraded over the summer.
The Roaring Woodwork That’s great -Congratulations! I would love to see a video of your favorite tools. Only one, I was aware of in 2-that I have watched of yours and it’s been on my wish list, but there’s some I haven’t heard of before & I want to know more. Your demos were on point.
Love it. The weave was a great idea.
frank garcia thank you! I’ll be playing around with woven hardwoods soon, too. It’s super fun!
Plywood plugs really evidence your massive creativity! I’m now a new subscriber.
barbara kvistad thank you, Barbara! I appreciate it. I feel bad that I forgot to film the finished plugs, but they turned out really cool!
great video and project!
Matt Williams thank you Matt! I’m still learning a ton about woodworking and video production. Also just followed you over on Instagram. Great stuff, man!
The Roaring Woodwork thanks, I appreciate that and I can say the same to you!
Excelent !
That weaved plywood ❤ you took a kinda meh material and really elevated it! Great idea, beautiful design, quite incredible that you managed all these features with only one sheet
Lea Dupont thank you for the kind words, Lea! I appreciate it. This was such a fun challenge!
@@theroaringwoodwork2213 You're welcome. I meant every word 😉
Fantastic bar! I'd build this if I had a table saw, but you've definitely given me some ideas and inspiration for my own bar build.
Nick M awesome! I’m glad to hear it. This whole thing would be totally doable with a circular saw, too. It might take a bit longer to cut all of the strips, or you could make a “normal” door haha. Thank you for watching!
@@theroaringwoodwork2213 I do have a circular saw and a miter saw, maybe I can make it work!
This has so many awesome elements in this! Turned out awesome and the video editing was great!
Melrose Design thank you so much! This was only my third video and there is ton to improve, but it was a super fun build. You have an awesome page, by the way! Great videos!
Great looking piece. The weave is awesome.
Claterpult Workshop thank you! I appreciate that. The weave was a fun challenge. I can’t wait to try it with some hardwood, or even a plywood with a darker veneer like walnut for some cool variation. This one piece has got me thinking about so many new ones :)
The Roaring Woodwork sounds awesome. I like when an idea inspires more. I'll be looking for the videos
Beautiful work my friend.
Keith Spencer Sr. Thank you, Keith! I really appreciate that!
excellent job Sir
Thank you. I appreciate it!
Okay! You got my attention, mate!
Akbar Prabowo thank you Akbar! I appreciate it. I'm almost done editing my bed video too!
The Roaring Woodwork I’m waiting your next video. I just remembered, as Indonesian I’m amazed with your door cabinet. It’s hard to make those kind of pattern. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
That weave is really cool, nice build, just subscribed
Lucky River Beta thanks so much! I really appreciate that. I’ll have some new videos real soon!
Haha! I found some useful work for that lighted letter box! Nice project. Nice vid!
John Dennis Macapagal thanks John! Yeah that little light box is pretty cool. I will say though after a while I got tired of trying to keep all of the letters organized haha
Great project. Thanks for taking the time to film and edit it. Subscribed!
Thank you. I sincerely appreciate it.
Great job. Looks great!
Tim Buck II thank you! I appreciate it!
Nicely done, your attention to detail is second to none mate. Like the others below have mentioned the weave is inspired, i would never have thought about using a ply weave, but it works so well and looks awesome. 👍
Darren Roberts wow - thank you so much! I really appreciate the feedback. I was inspired by one of my guitar amps - it’s a funky retro looking thing with a tweed grille in front of the speakers. I roughly based the dimensions for this cabinet off of the amp. I’m hoping to do this with hardwood soon. I want to play around with different widths for a weave to create a gradient pattern.
Great job!
Built by Jessie thank you, Jessie! Nice to see you over here :)
Your work is phenomenal!!! Love love the door 👍🏼
JewDd* 89 thank you so much! It was quite fun to build :)
Mad skills, bro! It turned out amazingly well. Subscribed 👍
Donavan McElroy thank you so much, Donavan! I really appreciate it! I’m putting the final touches on my next video right now and am hoping to get it on here tomorrow!
Great job! So well built! Loved the video too. Subscribed, and looking forward to more
Michael Alm thanks a ton, Michael! Your plywood challenge was awesome, too! This was such a fun experience. I’ve got lots of videos coming out this summer, too.
Totally agree, such a great experience. I’ve discovered so many awesome makers.
great👍
Liked & subscribed. Awesome creative use of the sheet. I really like this idea! The weave really makes it pop!
Richard Parker thank you, Richard! I had a lot of fun with this one for sure. I can’t wait to try it with hardwood :)
Beautiful!
Thank you!
That door is amazing! Nice finished piece, man!!
Amazing. That turned out great!
Thank you so much! I want to make one with two doors next, and use hardwood. So many possibilities.
Wow! Super innovative. Excellent work!
Do It thank you so much! This was a real fun one :) I’m just about done editing my next video, too!
Really beautiful
Big Rhonda thank you!
Great work, congratulations👍
Luigi Rizzello thank you! This was a fun one!
Nice project, congratulations.
SNM CustomWork thank you! I appreciate it!
That came out realy nice!!!!
Houtje Boom - Be Creative thank you! I’m happy the weave turned out!
Nice weave pattern it really does show it well.
DIY Home & Garden Projects thank you! I’m super happy with the panel. I’ve got so many ideas just from this one project. Luckily, I’ve saved a ton of hardwood offcuts from the last year or so, so I can experiment with more weaving!
The Roaring Woodwork To give you an additional ideal here’s a video I did on a screen door with the weave pattern on the bottom. ruclips.net/video/onMm4AQA0PA/видео.html
Really grt build, one of the best...keep up ... n u got a new subscriber
vikram khaira you’re too kind! Thank you so much. I seriously appreciate it. I’m just about done with editing my next video so that will be up soon!
Looking forward for ur new video Greg
Knob Creek! (Oh, and the credenza!!!)
Scott Ashley haha! Don’t forget the Lagavulin! :)
Just noticed the sign in the back. Cute details.
Skwrl Fuzz thanks! Yeah - it helps relieve some of the repetitive narration :)
Great video and build! looking forward to moar!
So impressive!
Jordy Reviews It thank you Jordy! And thanks for making it over here from Instagram! I appreciate it.
Awesome work man, I really dig the weaving. Also, this made for a pretty good video to watch while enjoying a glass of Evan Williams - cheers!
Kevin Hubert thank you, Kevin! That’s awesome. Cheers to that!
Wow, the weave is awesome.
tom ruth thank you, Tom! I appreciate it! I’m hoping to make it out of hardwood this summer, too.
I saw a furniture shop that did a woven wood back on a chair. They said they used a CNC to shape instead of bending the pieces.
tom ruth I know nothing about CNCs. A few people have mentioned soaking them first, but the plywood was fine as it was. I’m curious to see how it’ll go with hardwood.
Greg, I too know nothing about CNC. It does interest me but don't really have the time-money-space for it. I can't believe you got the ply to bend as you did. Maybe solid will do the same. I imagine you could cut it thinner than the plywood and still have some strength.
tom ruth the plywood measured 3/64” on my calipers! I could bend it back on itself, or end to end, 180 degrees. I’ll definitely film it when I do it with walnut. For science!
Greg my man I like that cabinet. Do have any plans ?
Thanks for sharing really cool build
Thomas Babcock thank you Thomas! I’m glad you like it!
You have a Instagram feed?
Love the piece. I've had plans for the basket weave concept in my head for years to make a picnic basket for my wife. I just haven't had the time. But this proves it will work. Thanks!
Subscribed and liked as well, Greg. Looking forward to more!
Billy
Billy Burt thank you so much. I appreciate it! Let me know how that goes! Are you going to use hardwood? I’ve got a ton of offcuts from the last year of making pieces that will make great hardwood strips. I want to play with different widths to see what kind of woven designs I can come up with. A basket would be awesome!
Greg, my thoughts are to use white oak. I have a bunch of ~22" lengths of kiln dried stock I thought I'd use. Some thoughts are to steam it after I get it cut into thin strips so it doesn't snap when weaving, but I'm not sure that would really be necessary. Won't know until I try.
Billy Burt white oak will look awesome! I’ve never worked with steam - but the plywood was super bendy. Granted, I wasn’t bending it into a box shape.
I won't be either. Just weaving it into four panels so steam may not be necessary.
So why you stopped making videos ???
Great build
Wow good job brother. Keep going 👍
Marvelous... Keep it up
Nandlal Rajput thank you! I appreciate it. I’ll have another one soon - I’m almost done editing :)
I approve. Great video and project, Greg.
Mortgage & Mitre thank you, Kris! I appreciate that a ton.
Hey I found u on instagram under the rockler plywood challenge and I like ur work so I’m now a subscriber of yours great vid
Niall Gartland thank you Niall! That’s great. I’m glad you enjoyed it. There were so many awesome pieces in this challenge!
Hi Greg! I started following your IG after seeing you on Talking Dead. While I enjoy when you talk about WD, I have become such a fan of your woodworking posts. You are so talented!!! I know nothing about this art, but enjoyed this video. Your work is beautiful!! Subscribed. 😊
Carey Cooper thank you so much, Carey! I really appreciate it! I’m hoping to do some Walking Dead related pieces, like a display case for my homemade Lucille :) I hadn’t done any woodworking back when I was on Talking Dead, but this hobby sure took off quickly!
The Roaring Woodwork Awesome! I look forward to seeing the new pieces you create!
Hey Greg. Amazing design. I love it. 2 quick questions.
1. you mentioned this trial of plywood wood plud. Are you pleased with the final result? Im not sure if you showed it or not, couldn't find it.
2. what would be the problem of a dado in plywood to support the shelf? Not strong enough?
Many thanks
Oliver
Thank you for the kind words, Oliver. The plywood plugs are pretty cool. Since they’re made from the edge of the plywood, they contrast nicely with the veneer. I just forgot to film a final shot of it so it didn’t make it into the video. There is no problem with using a dado, either, and that’s mainly the joinery I use in all of my cabinets. I think there was just on a time constraint with only a couple of days left in the plywood challenge so I made the cleats instead.
@@theroaringwoodwork2213 thank you so much for the feedback 👍
You should make a cupboard with that kind of weaving on all the sides
Benjamin Karlsson that would be awesome. I want to make this out of solid walnut eventually - woven strips and all. That would be fun.
Hello from Santa Rosa. This project was great! I knew I recognized you from TWD connection.
benlincali what’s up man! Thank you! I appreciate it :)
Are you commissioning jobs? I have some ideas.
benlincali I am! I’ve got the next two months off for summer break and I plan on spending all of it in my shop! I’d love to hear your ideas.
What is the best way to contact you outside of social media?
lindo design
Nice
sick. im a fan.
Adrian Orozco thanks a ton, Adrian! I’ll have some new videos here shortly, too!
Really cool liked and subbed very educational
jason sanders thanks a ton, Jason! I really do appreciate that!
Just a question have gotten a bench made since this video if not really need a workbench not the floor ok
Great job, the details from the door are awsome, im gona try someday with my furniture. Where i can find the cut list ?
How much would someone charge to make this? This is perfect 🙌🏻
jason whitton thank you, Jason! For this particular one, I only used one sheet of cheap plywood. I think it was around fifty bucks. If this were for a client, though, I’d want to use much nicer materials. With labor, materials, and hardware, I’d probably charge closer to $700 or more if I used hardwood. That’s just a ballpark guess though - I haven’t actually calculated much and I don’t really know how many hours went into it!
Where did you go?! It’s been awhile
This is really beautiful! Subscribed to your channel! Up to 1K!
Jolien Brebels thank you so much, Jolien! I’m getting there :) You’ve got an awesome channel!
Thank you very much for checking out my channel! Looking forward to your new videos!
I was cutting plywood the same way over the weekend, I now have a softball sized bruise on my stomach
Chris Lavoie oh no! Kickback? Were you cutting thin strips? Sorry to hear that man.
@@theroaringwoodwork2213 it was a bigger piece I just didnt push it through fast enough I guess, awesome cabinet btw!
NIce! Wow, I think we have the same Amazon tool buying list...I am starting to think all guys after buying a new house go through mass tool buying phases like this. lol Looking through your garage I see many tools I either bought or am buying... Great work man. Keep it up! Clearly, like me, you don't mind dropping some coin on the good stuff when you want to pull the trigger... Whatever you do, don't get the Nest doorbell...my wife catches me getting deliveries constantly through the video. I think the UPS driver thinks its funny to make all my delivies after she gets home too...no time for me to hide the dead money bodies of tools showing up. =)
Shawn Ziemba thanks Shawn! You nailed it. A month after buying my house, I got a miter saw to make a surfboard rack. It was all downhill from there. That was just last February! We just got the Ring doorbell, too. Ups usually comes around five o’clock haha.
Amazing! That weaving pattern you did is such a creative way to handle plywood and make it shine for what it is! Absolutely love it. Good thing only one broke, do you think making the strips wet would have helped or just make a mess? haha
Luciano Longo thank you so much, Luciano! The strip broke when I was trying to push it back - it may have just had a void in it or something. That tended to be where the weak spots were. I don’t think water would have been necessary with such thin strips, but I’m curious about using thicker pieces of hardwood, which I definitely want to try soon!
Cool! That'd be very interesting to see!
Luciano Longo I hope to get to it the summer! I’ve got a ton of things to build before that though. But, I’m filming all of them :)
The plywood weave is outstanding! Did you win?
oxcart19 thanks! I didn’t, but I learned a ton. There were so many awesome builds. It’s been a year but I still really want to see if I can do this with solid walnut :)
Like 899, parabéns.
Great build! I have to ask. Who is tattooed on your left arm? The ring would give thought to a saint but I didn’t recognize him off the top of my head. Not my business just curious brother.
Todd Rickman thank you, Todd. It’s actually Shakespeare! All of the portrait tattoos on my left arm are authors or literature-related. I’m an English teacher by day :)
Great looking piece... I’d like to start making/selling stuff from my home...I’m just curious if you sell your pieces and if so how much did this one sell for?
shootinblanks007 thank you! I do sell custom pieces, but this little cabinet was just for fun and it lives in my house. The Made for Profit podcast has some great resources for pricing your work.
