- ABOUT THIS VIDEO
This was a fun and extremely challenging build! And it makes sense that I made more mistakes building this than probably any other piece I have made in the past. I tried a lot of new things like using PSA veneer, using our vacuum bag to make a bent lamination, and some new push-to-open drawer slides! On top of that, there are all sorts of cool brass details to finish it off. Hope you enjoy watching!

For me you are the best furniture designer on RUclips .This piece is so progressive that there is no expression for it.
Really appreciate the kind words! Thank you!
Likewise! No more dominoes for me :D
Agreed, its a beautiful piece and the mistakes...what mistakes, it looks amazing at the end.
I'm so glad you're back to making videos on your own channel; dialogue I can actually enjoy.
Really appreciate it, thanks for watching!
Beautiful design, Shaun.
For dry fitting with dominoes, this is a trick that works for me.. . Buy the domino sticks. Rip off the tapered edges to make them a little narrower. Run the stick through a drum sander or planer, taking off only a hair. This makes them just thinner than the mortise. Draw a sharpie line on the flat part of the stick. Now you can cut them to lengths as needed, and the sharpie indicates that these are your dry fit dominoes. I have a box of these of various lengths. They are much easier to remove when dry fitting. The cost of a few sticks has saved me hours of frustration.
Thanks for your videos. I always enjoy watching your process.
Great idea! Thanks for watching!
The suspense definitely worked. I yelled out loud “ah dammit” and my dog was concerned for me lol
Insane. I'm really pumped to see your channel revived and hope that others are entertained and find the value and inspiration in your vids that I have. This channel deserves a million+ subs as much as any creative channel on youtube. Cheers!
Really appreciate you saying that! Thanks for the kind words, it is encouraging!
I like to microwave my dominos prior to doing a dry fit. Seems to help. I also sand down the ridge on the sides and keep a small stash just for dry fitting. Cheers!
Both good ideas! Might have to keep a stash of sanded dominos for this.
I do the same, but I also mark up the trimmed dominos with a black magic marker so I don't confuse them with the full size ones.
Was going to say the same - microwave/heating them shrinks them just enough to help with dry fitting and even glue ups.
i fall asleep every single time i watch one of your videos from how relaxing your voice is
best milling video section i have ever seen.
Love the cut-back and wrap-around drawer face dude! Really adds a lot of dimensionality. Beautiful piece ✌️
Thanks, man! That is definitely what I was going for, glad you dig it.
@sawyerDesign love your channel too bro!
I love this new direction you and Chris are taking! Diversifying the content onto multiple channels seems to allow each of your personal touches on videos to shine brightly.
Using the rounded edge instead of the flat edge on the router against the tracksaw track just made me imagine this wobbly channel coming out.
Hey Shaun, I'm glad you are back to your own videos again.
What a fantastic piece to return to. I really am excited for your channel, and loved hearing your humor and story throughout the video. Super engaging and entertaining. Also, that piece is 😍
Really glad to hear that! Thanks for following along!
Stunning piece, The brass accents and the pop of red, which you couldn't have done without the mistake, make a huge difference to the piece. The red certainly makes it pop.
Thank you for sharing.
Happy to hear that! Thanks for watching!
Shaun, very nice to have your channel back - always was one of my favorites.
Here's my secret for pulling Domino's. Use a claw hammer and channel locks. Place the forks off the hammer on either side of the domino, grab the domino with the channel locks, and lever the hammer up. Easy as pie. Regular pliers would work, but the offset of the channel locks makes it easier.
Love it! Great idea.
Tips for removing tricky this like domino’s, Pair of mole grips with a foot length of stud in the back ( were adjuster bolt is then a piece of metal stock with a hole in for the stud to go in then just a nut on the end. You can the grip the mole grips to what you are trying to pull out and quickly slide the metal stock up the stud hitting the nut. Result is a handy slide hammer that can grip multiple things really well. Saved me many times in the injection mould industry with plastic mouldings stuck in hit tools!
man i think mistakes are underrated in general. not only do they push your comfort zone to find creative alternatives, but they challenge the design in ways you would never do naturally. Innovations often happen this way if you're optimistic. dwelling on mistakes is the only mistake lol so good stuff my dude, congrats on perseverance
The piece, incredible. You squeezed more than 10% with those final details.
The video, shooting, writing… you hit a difficult mark of being light, yet inspiring. Soldiering on through mistakes that would leave me in a series of spin cycles.
And frankly, the fact you are not doing slab projects and demonstrating new skills and designs - this is the direction making needs to go.
Really happy to hear that! Appreciate it all, and thanks for watching.
Whistling the Courtship of Eddie's Father. Great video! I certainly enjoyed.
I've watched hundred of hours of wood milling and drawer making and I never get tired of it. I don't know why.
Hey, whatever floats your boat. I get it.
Idea for a domino puller: get someone to weld a slide hammer (or just a nut that you can thread a slide hammer) onto a pair of vice grips.
I think you might be onto something, I like it.
@@shaunboydmadethis Honestly, just the vice grips work pretty darn well...
@@shaunboydmadethis I was going to comment this. Amazon sells a "Vice Grip Slide Hammer". They work great!
That piece is a thing of beauty! So glad you're back to making videos on your channel.
I don't know much about this channel... I only recently started watching Foureyes and was sent over here. looking forward to growing with this channel.
Thanks for coming over here too. More to come!
Milling is one of my favorite parts of the process.
That is amazing piece that shows how much you have learned - another level woodworking. Glad your channel is back!
This video must have been a TON of work to make--all the different shots, angles, lighting, voice-over, music, etc. Your commitment to awesome content and awesome furniture is very respectable.
Shawn: Wabi-sabi is a concept that motions us to constantly search for the beauty in imperfection and accept the more natural cycle of life. It reminds us that all things including us and life itself, are impermanent, incomplete, and imperfect. Perfection, then, is impossible and impermanence is the only way.
Years ago I used to work with this craftsman /sawyer who really knew his stuff. But boy could he make mistakes. What he was really great at was fixing them. As a result, I have always believed it isn't that mistake that ruins the piece. It is the repair that makes the craftsman.
Couldn’t agree more!
Shaun I recently discovered your channel, and I am amazed with your work!
Happy to hear that, thanks for finding me!
That end grain edge banding is dope! So pumped your channel is back.
Appreciate it!
I got a little tip for to help with the domino pulling issue, rather then using the pliers you were using try a pair of vise grips. Lock down on the domino and you won’t have to concentrate any energy into gripping and you can just wiggle and pull. Best method I’ve found so far. Give it a go.
Hey Shaun, SO glad you are back making videos on your channel. As a woodworker who makes mistakes and follows the adage, it's how you fix the mistakes that makes the woodworker, have you thought about making your own dominos out of the wood that you're building with? Some walnut dominos might have spared you some serious agony. Also, I didn't see you lay down on top of it when you were done...
That's a super awesome build. You're a true craftsman. Oh and mistakes, they're just there to keep you humble and to prove you're human just like the rest of us. Oh and to challenge you to excel in finding workable solutions. I so enjoyed this video. You really inspire me to improve myself.
Thanks for watching!

You're whistling the Rob and Big theme!!!!

RIP Big Black
Shaun, I recommend talking to @BlacktailStudio. As he was previously a aircraft pilot, that only just started in woodworking on RUclips, and in a very short space of time already has a wait list of clients. He might give you some tips?
Would be cool to see you two do a Collab or something in future?
Very nice (video too).
The only thing I'd thought about to change was making a gap along the brass in the sliding door that would match with the gap between the top/bottom drawer. JMHO :o)
Shaun,
Try sanding down some dominos so they aren't as tight a fit and use those for dry fitting, then replace them for the glue-up.
Shaun- I’m sure your aware, but there’s scammers appearing in your posts. I have of course reported them.
You nerds have two of the best channels on RUclips.
Happy to hear that! Very accurate word, too. Thanks for watching!
Definitely like the pop of orange on the drawer when it’s opened.. 💪🏼🔥💪🏼🔥
Domino tip: Sand the little spline edges and corners down on a couple dozen dominoes, mark them with a Sharpie and use them just for test fitting.
Hi. Interesting piece.
Hopefully some helpful info. The peel and stick veneer really needs a sealed surface to get a good bond. Applying to raw wood is asking for a bond failure. Also, peel and stick veneer was developed for cabinet refacing, and has no business being used in fine furniture. It will not withstand the test of time. You want to move to one of the many glues that can be used in your vacuum bag, and do all veneering of curved parts in there. This is a long piece, and not easy to make in one continuous piece, but you could break it up into two more manageable pieces, one straight, and one straight with the full curve (plus a little extra for trimming.) That would mean a bigger bending form, but would allow all sections to be done in the bag with proper adhesive and clamping pressure.
Keep pushing yourself and having fun.

Ever heard of using too many ingredients, I think this is what makes or breaks a piece, and I have learned that the more you learn along your journey, the greater your expectations. Truth is, onlookers, rarely understand the complications that were overcame in the creation of their work,- the wright brothers come to mind. Keep moving, build, and reflect.
you are not a carpenter you are an artist 😊
Learning to fix your mistakes is the sign of a good woodworker. Learning not to point them out to potential clients is the sign of a good salesman. Very nice design, execution. The brass inlay an other little extras at the end really made this.
Yes mate! Good to see you're back, youve been missed!
Turned out killer, MISTAKES AND ALL!!!
Awesome video, awesome piece. Best “reboot” I’ve seen in a long time.
Theme to "The Courtship of Eddies Father." Love your videos.
In a world where the inflation of epoxi resin shenanigans is the new normal, it is so incredible refreshing to see something like this. Not gonna lie, this is, by far, the most beautiful woodworking project I've seen in a looooong time. I absolutely LOVE it!
Really appreciate all of that. Thank you for watching!
Dude you really rock the full plum.
You're whistling the Rob and Big theme!!!!
"People let me tell you bout my best friend. He’s a warm hearted person who’ll love me till the end..."
RIP Big Black
Haha, you got it! Harry Nilsson - Best Friend. But it's definitely stuck in my head because of Rob & Big.
@@shaunboydmadethis Sweet! Feel free to message me so you know where to send my HUGE cash prize and GIANT novelty check!
Side note...that show was the jam
Shaun in quilting 'mistakes' are called 'design enhancements'. 😁 Go forth and embrace your inner creative genius.
You were whistling the theme from The Courtship of Eddie's Father. A great show starring a young Bill Bixby
It is funny the different places people know the song from!
@@shaunboydmadethis yep. It's been around longer than me, 😆
As a mediocre woodworker, I've actually started embracing my mistakes and loving the fact that most touch ups are still visible and tell a story. Recently caught myself showing all my mistakes to friends on the last chair I built, and their reaction was possibly even better than seeing the finished piece itself!
Your dry humor is excellent. Glad to see your four eyes on your own channel again.
Soldering on is where is where personal growth and learning happens.
Somewhere I have never been 😂
Haha! Personal growth is overrated anyway.
Long grain veneer on end grain bothers the hell out of me! I'm 100% in your camp of making an end grain veneer! Looks fantastic.
That domino reveal really had me on the edge of my seat 😂
I'm a master of suspense.
23:59 I think you should photograph EVERY piece of furnature with Ghost Shaun in or on it! That effect looks so awesome. You can see how it looks with a person there, without interfering with the main focus of the photo: showing off the furnature.
Beauty marks! I'm thinking about the shining moment in history when the first artycraftsperson coined that most beautiful of phrases: wabi sabi.
Boy do I like that table. Mistakes made or not, it still looks great and that’s what it’s all about in the end.
RUclips recommended this after watching a video by Foureyes Furniture. Didn't know Shaun had a channel too. As a beginner woodworker, I'm excited to watch the rest of your satisfying walkthroughs.
For the tight fit dominos, have a set specifically just for dry fitting. Sand them down a bit so they’re not so snug.
I have respect for people who do the same thing, day in, day out, but you’ve got to love being able to make those mistakes, because, my friend, it’s about pushing the boundaries and improving, which at the end of the day, is something you’re obviously not scared of. Yes, it’s a pain in the ass when something goes wrong, but at least you learn a lesson and improve each time and, hopefully, it’s less likely to happen again. Anyway, it’s turned out super nice and you had the chance to do something new. Keep up the great work.
Totally agree, and really appreciate it!
thanks shaun, 100% satisfied after the milling section
Glad I'm not the only bad salesman that has a passion for woodworking. Still rocking that full plum. Love it.
I love the Jetsons aesthetics in your recent pieces.
bro… this piece is gorgeous, just wow
Wabi sabi my guy, the mistakes are part of what makes it beautiful
I’ll know. The first table i wver made still keeps me up at my night
My goodness I really like this Shaun, I remember when you and Chris decided to merge, I thought oh no he’s abandoning his RUclips. But I was also subscribed to Chris Salmone, so it all worked out. Just like this piece of furniture. I wish I could afford to buy it. It’s beautiful.
Really appreciate it, and thanks for sticking around!
The mark of a master isn't that he doesn't make mistakes, it's how he deals with them. Awesome piece of furniture and an awesome video.
You are so right! Don’t use the word mistake but opportunity to reach a higher level of professionalism!
Was watching this video and kept speaking out loud like I was carrying on a conversation with you. Wife came by and said, “talkin to your bud?” Haha. Happy you’re back and can’t wait to learn/see more from you!
Haha! Happy to keep you company for a bit.
The return of Full Plump is appreciated
You’re whistling “ Let me tell you bout my best friend”🤙
Gotta say that going "full plum" was probably the best way to end a video I've seen ;) Thanks for the vid Shaun, and keep building awesome...mistakes and all!
Shaun Boyd is awesome!
Shaun, I keep a set of each size domino aside for dry assembly. I just rub down the ridges on the sides which makes it a lot easier to pull out.
Hey after watching both yours and Chris' videos this week I'd say try not to carry over a project from 2023 into 2024. Love the content though and I agree, best piece you've made yet (except the orange). Time to go binge some more of your videos!
That's quite beautiful. Well worth the price you ask.
oh baby! that is one good looking table.
That outro was especially inspiring :)
Shaun, I very much loved the design. Hosever, I was quite surprised to see you using PSA veneer in lieu of shop made veneer which you could have glued to the bendable plywood in your veneer press. But the way you did it was faster, so I guess that's why you went that route. Another significant time saver was your drawer box construction method. To my way of thinking, given that you had a very unique design, you should have used dovetails or, at the very least, box joints. But, that's how I build furniture, which isn't for everyone.
Simply beautiful. Complexly beautiful.
That blue tape trick is a great idea though for real!
I love this piece. Your best yet in my book and I have liked them all. True, they seem overly complicated but that makes your talent shine. And, yes, mistakes were made thus proving Shaun IS human, not an Oscar Meyer Weiner.
Haha, thanks Clyde! This is one of my favorites, as well.
We all make mistakes, the trick is to over come and move on. Great piece of work mate.
That build was incredible I liked the brass and orange accent
Shaun: "I see the seams."
Ant: "I see the seams."
Me: 🤨😑😂
The piece looks amazing! Well done Shaun!
Christmas, alone in workshop with tools and materials. Let me know when you get to the sad part.
Before I get to the aesthetics of which surface to apply a veneer first or last, I look at the physics of the functional use. That edge where people move while they seat themselves or get up, and where they put their hands for that purpose, is precarious because a lot of chance for abuse and wear, and lifting veneer. So a solution that puts more material and more durable material on that edge might be a solution. That is, veneer both surfaces (probably the curved edge of the side surface first because you can flush trim the side veneer before adding and trimming the top/face veneer), then rout the edge for hardwood binding, and bind like a guitar top. And then trim the binding flush to both surfaces. Then both veneer edges are protected. It can also be a decorative component with contrasting wood or finishing.
Awesome! I needed a new furniture nap video
Keep up the great work and there will be many million view videos.
when i started seeing videos of woodwork, i repeated myself "that's incredible, but probably never goin to do something like that" and the more time i spend watching your videos i started to think someday i could, thanks so much for the honesty and the transparency, i greatly apreciated.
Harry Nilsson - Best Friend. Keep up the good work!
Got it!
That feeling of satisfaction quickly went away with that wonky clamp lol.
Haha! Fair.
You are such a vibe...totally and completely fun to listen to that's what I loved most about the video.
Man what u said at the end about mistakes at the end hits really deep, wise words ❤
Best milling sequence evah!!!!
Cool project!
That turned out very nice, absolutely beautiful
Beautiful piece, love the details!
Dude, that piece is 💰!!
DONT CALL IT A COME BACK BAYBE!!!!!
Amazing build! I can’t wait to be able to create things like this
