- I build a desk with hidden wireless charging. I used woodworking and metalworking on this project with a walnut top and a tube steel welded base. This modern industrial computer desk has a nice simple desk feel but with tons of character including a copper metal bowtie inlay. #wirelesscharging

You have 10+ minutes video and you didn't add any ad break, as a youtuber i would say that's awesome :)
Owenizedd I would have added one every minute
Cool...:)
Also watch ILTMS and other amazing channels
Ad at the beginning and a sponsored video so
@@tobyschannelnow4293 it depends. Not everyone gets an ad at the beginning.
Step 1: Build the table
Step 2: Realize that your device doesn’t support wireless charging
Step 3: Commit happyn’t
Ophi2 you talk about building a table like its one step! Its more like:
Step 143: Finish building a table
Step 1: Have an iPhone XR, which does support wireless charging
Step 2: Lack the skill and energy and materials to make this table
Step 3: Watch video anyways to see how legit the idea is and wonder if Logitech is going to release wireless charging desks in the future
Anonymous User true
Amaracea omg you just explained my life story.... I have an XR which I’m watching on and supports wireless charging. I lack the skill and the materials to build this. I watch the video to find out if it’s legit AND I AM WONDERING IF THERE WILL BE ANY WIRELESS CHARGING DESKS IN THE FUTURE WTFFFFFFF
@@timmy409 IKEA has it in their showrooms. I guess it's coming soon
I don’t even know anything about woodwork and all, I saw this in my recommended randomly, but damn do I wanna get into woodwork now lmao
same here haha
Same here 😂😂😂
I know that feeling bro.......but trust me as u get deeper into it, it's just a pain in the a**
Same lmao
Exact same thing here man
Saw this in my recommended list, and its the first time youtube has actually put something entertaining for me to watch. 100% subbed bro, keep up the great content.
i "saw" it too
Shamz same
Wise advice my dad gave me about welding (time served welder) - You don't have to be a good welder - you only have to be great at grinding.
You could say the same thing about life; You have to be good at grinding.
@@JNYC-gb1pp thats it, enough internet for today
@@cocoshort6528 I mean grinding as in persistent and consistent - not the sexual meaning! lol
@@JNYC-gb1pp lol
A grinder and paint, will make a welder what he ain't !
that copper inlay looks awesome! You might use it as a singature sort of thing on furniture you might want to sell...
I’m liking that wife dust collection mount for the circular saw, I need to get one of those 😂 Turned out awesome man, really like this.
Highly recommend that add-on 😂😂
and high maintenance
and doesn't function always
And sometimes make irritating noises
I was scratching my head wondering what you meant, until I got to that point in the video 🤣
I don’t know why I’m watching this: I’m the only tool in my house.
🤣🤣
Lol 😂
so true
Excellent video! You explain everything so clearly. Also not hiding the mistakes. Well done Brad!
Thanks, Timmy!
That's also the part i appreciated the most, it's such a rarity to hear someone say [& with confidence!] "do you see me making any mistakes? what am i doing wrong & what could i be doing better" It really demonstrates true intellect cuz it shows someone as not just able to admit fault, but mainly that there willing to learn from their shortcomings, further elevating one's awareness in the subject at hand, rather than one letting their ego control them an taking advice on comments up the butthole.
I applaud you for this and hope others will learn from YOU in this regard
I agree, I'm also impressed you showed your mistakes, as I know I learned from them instead of doing them myself!
Am I the only person who watches these types of videos knowing I'll never do this? 😂😂
No i watch these as well but i probally will never do it
youuu are naaaawt alooonnee.. i am theeere with youuuu..
Lol. Probably 99% of the viewers won't be doing this.
Me too ;(
same
I like the fact that you don't pretend to be a perfect man and show us the little mistakes (must of people don't do it).
Great idea I enjoy watching your work thanks for sharing!
Pablo Ajanel thanks!
Watches video...
Me: already has a new desk
Also me: Makes new desk just to charge phone that doesnt support wireless charging
Also me 2: buys new phone to go with wireless charging desk that'll replace current desk.
😂😂😂😂
Worth it lol
Yes, a vid we can all watch and do... as we all have the tools etc..
Tommas the Tank Engine there are adapters
Tommas the Tank Engine lol
Great work, but honestly the most great aspect about this video is how well you explain the job to the viewers
I know I'm never going to build myself a table but I really enjoyed this video
The walnut and metal combo looks amazing and is an awesome build. Adding an inlay and hidden wireless charging? SO cool!!
Southern Style DIY taking it to the next level!
Loved This Vid, Building For My Step Daughter In The Hope That She Finally Doesn’t Hate Me. Retail Therapy 😍😍😍
Aww, that's so sad? Did it work ?
*Imagine if the charger didn't work after all that*
and what if it broke, how do you replace this?
That is why he tested to see if it will charge befor he glued it
The copper is not over the charger. he is lucky he did not place it directly on top of the charger as it would not work with copper on top.
@@Bobodeman he meant what will he do if the charger will stop working and he could not get it off the table XD
I think you would just rip out the old charger from the wire. Hot glue is a little easier to work with than many other glues. You would just have to cut it out with a razor blade kind of like cutting out silicone.
I need this, my phone basically lives on my table
Can we get 5000 subscribers with no videos? Just subbed m8.
Then plug it in
+Brandon Yeo
I don't think you understand convenience, The reason wireless charging is so popular for phones is because it's convenient to just set your phone somewhere and it'll start charging without needing to be plugged in, Even if plugging it in is quicker and more efficient, Most people will usually pick the more convenient route.
I see u everywhere.
Nice prof pic
B E R D
I definitely have the resources and skills to build all this.
Who watched this knowing damn well they’ll never build this?
Edit: Dang, first time I got more than 1 like on RUclips, tanks y’all

I did. These videos are my kind of ASMR. :'D
BreAch 🅜🅔
I'm Just High af && got interested 😂💯
actually gonna build one too, just without the wireless charging because I don't need it. this video seems great at showing how to do it
@@realsies250 so did you build it?
who clicked on this video thinking they were gonna be able to do this on their own with ease?
You understand me bro
Umm I was already expecting this 😂
You can, this guy just made it from scratch.
@@iTak bruh
Me
for your second welding project all i can say is well done mate very good and keep it up
I'm always skeptical when people put metal frames with woodwork, but it really brought this whole piece together. The metal frame and copper inlay bring a nice modern look to the wood!
Awesome table Brad. Love that walnut too. I'm going to try that charger inlay on my next build.
Thanks, I love the wireless charger aspect too
I'd recommend installing metal rings or something of the sort underneath desks, along the back edge, for cable management
WHY RUclips ALWAYS BRINGS TO ME VIDEOS LIKE THAT ON MY EXAMS NIGHT?
ömer soylu which subject??
Sameeeee
@@SubscriberswithoutAnyvid-sr3jx electromagnetic theory :(
ömer soylu How did you do 😂
@@nick.maxfield1 It was okey .I passed
This is freaking amazing! I'm currently building my desktop and you just inspired me! Never would have thought of a hidden charger. Wow. Nice work.
This is such a fun idea for a table or countertop
IKEA taking notes!
Hahahaha!!
Yall want to know what the only thing i like about ikea is?! Its how they perfectly wrap a rug up and put in wrapping and you get it home and your just waiting for that wrinkly ass carpet to come unfold partially and takes about 2 years to get flat!! But nooo it unflolds into a perfectly flat rug!!
Impressive work, congratulations.
I admire the skill and the creativity ...cheers
I loved it man. That wireless charging... I'm about to build my new desk, and I'm going for it. Thanks for the inspiration.
Zabawa w budowie how did it go?
You haven't built it yet, right? 😂
nope... rather build it right than quick :)
Well played 🤭
How'd it go?
This is awesome. I love the bowtie emblem in the surface. Hopefully your charger pad doesn't overheat and is able to last a while within your table! I probably would have cut about 1" of extra hole radius so it at least gets airflow around the sides of it. But if it works, it works.
Brilliantly done. Loved the craftsmanship and wireless charging is super hit.
should've added some more things to the table...like RGB lights like those.....
well this is awesome !!👌🏻
*"The best thing I like about this man is, he never feel shaggy about listening his mistakes from the other people"*
I remembered Shaggy from Scooby-Doo
First off, this looks great. I really like the bowtie accent.
I actually found this video while looking for ways to put wireless charging in the top of the DJ booth im about to make.
Instantly subscribed after watching this. Beautiful desk btw.
Thanks for the sub!
Beautiful desk. Maybe one idea; maybe use velcro to mount the charger and/or something that is not so permanent for routing the cable. Just in case the charger goes bad you can always replace it. Amazing job.
Velcro would've worked perfectly, that's my only gripe too. Nice work though.
literally about to comment the same thing!
With the thickness of the wood, plus the case, plus the Velcro, the charger may be too far away from the phone at that point. A detachable cover plate with a foam pressure pad (to press the charger against the wood) might be a better option.
Hot glue is not all that permanent. It can scraped out easily with minimal damage to the wood. Plus its hidden so even if you do damage it slightly you'll never see it.
Absolutely amazing desk
This is the most beautiful desk I have ever seen in my life. I am going to build my own desk at some point and I am definitely going to apply this to the design. Thank you for the inspiration man.
i'd pay you to have that custom desk delivered to my door, it's beautiful. Any way I can buy it from you?
What depth is needed to be able to charge through the wood? Not sure if I missed it. This was absolutely amazing! Thanks for this inspiration.
A bit curious about the performance of the wireless charger. did you have to find a sweet spot for it every time the phone is placed or it works like a charm?
Hey brad you should replace the charger you put in with a large wirless charging mouse pad their supper cool and will increase the area where you can put your phone also it will allow you to use a wirless mouse that charges wirelessly one the mouse pad i dont think it would be difficult but it would be a cool improvement
Absolutely love this design, Great Desk
Came out looking really nice Brad! I love the contrast between the copper and walnut and the wireless charging blows my mind - curious if it the distance from the phone affects the speed of charging?
Haven't done any testing to see differences in charging time
The further the phone is from the charging plate the lower the induced current. so yes it will increase the charging time
wireless charging isn't fast enough to be properly useful yet anyway, so it's more keeping it topped off than actual charging
SlipperyAvocado the Samsung devices have wireless fast charging though, full charge 0 to 100% in about 2 1/2 hours.
@@GirthyNuts which is about 2 hours slower than the fastest charging available in phones rn
Awesome build Brad! I really like the wireless charging idea and how you used the bow tie as a reference feature. Well done. Keep it up!
Thanks, Casey!
I really liked your work & workflow... Totally professional. & WOW ...what a work shop- A cabinet makers dream .
Woah, for the welding, never weld directly on concrete, it could explode from the heat especially if you are doing more than a couple tacs
That would look sick
“just welding here, no big deal”
Concrete floor- 😏 “Alalalallalalah!”
It won't explode you need much more heat for tbat
@@DILLY_DING I think he meant crack instead of explode
@@DILLY_DING yes it can. dust explosion can occur
This is awesome man. Gives me so many ideas!
Awesome! This shows how a relatively easy project becomes great if you use fine materials.
I'm gonna have to do this! I'm remodeling my office and going to build a crazy one-of-a-kind 86" long desktop. I also want to do the "River look" epoxy top. Do you have a video on that?
"I'm new and still trying to figure things out"
What a legend
Wow I want that table
Haha u did all that to make a wireless charger table. I literally duct taped a wireless charger under the table and it works perfectly fine😂😂😂
Yeah but he could sell this and make a profit. Also the workmanship in this is amazing for his first try.
Nice woodworking. Thank you.
Oh, so all you need to do is make an entirely new desk? Easy enough.
You could technically put it in a already done desk but it should be kinda thick
That is the title of the video after all, if you already have a wooden desk there's nothing stopping you from routing out a spot for a wireless charger as long as it isn't too thin.
80% of the video is making the table 5% of the video is just flying in a store bought wireless charger underneath it, 10% is a copper logo and 5% is telling people to subscribe
Storm Tuber this is a tutorial
Storm trooper u weren't forced to watch this, I found it very informative and I plan on making one pretty close to his but you are probably the person who needs attention and thumbs down everyone's videos just to be a troll.
Skipped most of the video. Basically, you just have to cut a bit out of a table and you're golden.
@@universe2170 The only important thing here is the charger's hole. 10 minutes just for that?
That desk is beautiful
that was satisfying
I subbed because of the mistakes. We all make them, not everyone shows them.
Dude great welding job I think it looks really nice
Tip: Dont wear shorts when welding
How to make a table with built in wireless charging:
by 5000 dollars worth of wood, equipment and tools.
At least. Lol
Well with a saw, sandpaper, something as a sanding block, and a hand plane plus the wood and a desk base (they are sold as a kind of kit that bolts together) you can make this. That's about 100 in tools that will last you basically longer than you will, about 150 in wood, and maybe 50 for the table base. The wood is way cheaper when sold rough. If you want the insert, you'll need a chisel and some metal to make the insert itself.
looks so easy to do,am going to do it
just wana say that induction heating may occure and the copper might either slow the charging time or heat up or make the board draw to much current u shoulda have not placed it that close o the charger research induction heating and u will get what i am saying thanks
It's like 6 inches away.. I am sure it will be fine.
Great video, Brad. That top looks awesome! One question, what fume extractor are you using and does it work well? Okay, that was two questions.
The Average Craftsman it's the Lincoln Mini flex 👍
@@Fixthisbuildthat what cover do u use for your phone? Looks grt. Send me a link pls
Great build! Looks slick
What's wrong with you haters. His work is amazing
I'd bet you already know this but one of the best places on youtube to learn welding is weldingtipsandtricks , the guy on it is a great welder and teacher.
man this is immensely helpful. i’ve built 3 desks since COVID hit for WFH (two for me, one for my girlfriend) and this is the exact thing I’ve been looking to do! thanks for posting this
Apple will sold this 50,000 dollar for this
killer hunter charger comes separate
I came expecting to build a easy desk I left realizing I'm broke asf 😭
Copper inlay is beautiful. I would have considered polishing it after sanding. That would have brought back that shine!
you should have drilled a small hole under the inlay from behind to bleed out the excess epoxy,so that it would fit flush to the surface and eliminate the excess sanding.Just a small thought
small tip if you first only tag the inner edges you can still correct the angles than tag the outsides to so you dont really have to clamp it down as hard or if something is to big it will come in hamdy some day.. you can also use a piece of copper and clamp it in with the part you are welding because it wont stick on copper ;)
Awesome tips! Thanks
Wao its awesome on how we wood workers expand our minds in trying out new things, great work
We've just found our channel today and we loved it! For sure it's gonna be a good source of information for us when we start building the interior of our shipping container house! ☺️
Awesome! Hope you enjoy some of the other videos too :)
“I like wireless charging but not the extra wires”
So less is more
I'm amazed how I actually finished the whole video, when I neither have a phone that supports wireless charging, nor have skill in building this. hahaha. great video btw, i got hooked.
Feel free to watch my other ones 😃
Imagine coming to this video just to find out how to put the wireless charging in your own desk, then realizing you don't have the tools for it so you give up.
Your welds are fine for your project and over time you will improve on the beads themselves. Just be sure that when you weld your tacking first and then checking for square and not just laying down a bead.
Wonderful, I love the wireless charging and the marker you used. Great job.
Dude You look exactly like Robb Stark.....
Game of Thrones 😶
I love this wood working book *TopFineWoodworking. Com* . A few of the topics talked about in the book include wood working strategies, explanation on the development cycles of trees, and various lumber characteristics that craftsmen favor. I also provided my father another copy.
great video but all most the machines you used is so expensive...
Simply amazing!
Well, I mean...couldn't you just duct tape the charger underneath your table?
lol
I guess u need to like cut a hole under ur table kuz the charging wave thing will be too far away. but I guess so
No, would be too far away. If so it'd have to be a thin table.
AnthonyLikesDinos suuuuuuper thin table
lmao
cool idea
after watching the video:
**gets burned from all the sparks**
That is my dream desk 🫶😉 I love the design! Thank you for sharing the technique.
You have a talent ! 🙌👏
Will be waiting for more inspiration.
Hey Fix This Build That I'm Starting high school in 3 weeks my courses are Construction And Mechanic Thank you For Making me Feel So Excited about building stuff watching u make this made me so hyped to go to high school hopefully i can build something just like that.
Best of luck!

Welding is a practice makes perfect. Get a ton of scrap metal and just weld t's together. :)
he should be a narrator his voice just gives me that vibe
Beautiful desk!
Are you selling wireless tables, because honestly, I would buy them.
Look at the time and work he spend. Its probably 2000$
