Up until 31 minutes ago I was feeling pretty good about my woodworking abilities, But now, FORGET IT! LOL Can you please consider us mere mortals and stop having us consider taking our own lives. LOLOLOL! I think in order to keep my honor, I take my life In the Japanese way....Sepuku! ROFLMAO!! Again my friend, thank you for sharing you"re brilliant, creative functional art. As I was enjoying this build, the word that kept coming up was WOW!
hey my friend, what about having the "Live Edge" look on the legs of one of your deigns? And no, I don't know how it would be done but , give it a try? Just a thought.
As a professional film maker and a hobbyist woodworker I would have thought you had a background in video production. Your woodworking is truly inspiring, but it’s the quality of your videos that keeps me coming back to your channel. Thanks for all the great content.
Thanks for letting me send my audition tape in! My agent says this could be my big break...although, I think he was referring to Shopcat Jerry 😜. Seriously mate, another incredible piece of furniture that is full of creative design, intention, form and function.
Your photo of the underside of your desk says a lot. I’ve been to many shows featuring “fine” furniture over more decades than I care to remember. I’m “that guy”that gets down on the floor and looks up to see what’s “inside”. Its mostly to get ideas “for how things were done”. It’s amazing how much different the fit and finish of what shows versus what’s hidden that there is in many “fine” pieces. I appreciate the care you took with the work shown in that shot.
Wow, you blow my mind! You’re a brilliant designer and maker. I get very excited every time you post a video and never want them to end. Best woodworker on RUclips.
You're the one woodworker I always watch your new videos on my TV because they deserve to be seen on my giant, beautiful OLED. I'm always blown away by your beautiful work mate, it's remarkable and while I do woodwork myself, I can't even comprehend your talent, it leaves me speechless. Thanks for sharing, wish I could be part of the patreon, I'd love to see all your other amazing videos. Thanks for continuing to raise the bar in the woodworking world. ❤
...but isn't it awesome to see just what might be possible if you had 30 years to devote to that one thing? Or at least inspiring enough to get you to learn something that's new to you?
2:40 for those new to design, don’t mistake room specific applications as a limitation. This is actually a huge advantage in design because now you can focus the appearance of your elements to look amazing from a fewer viewpoints. As wood workers, we are subconsciously Accustom to designing our work to be viewed from all sides and any angle - which is the real limitation
Сколько стоит орех. ?Никогда не видела что бы продавали его древесину. Теперь понятна откуда такая фактура. Интересно на нем вырезают или он твердый как дуб?
I make stuff, I just started recording videos in my small workshop and I realized how difficult it is to shoot videos and do something. So thank you for your work.
The beauty and grace of form brought a tear to my eye. Kinda like watching a master performance of a piano concerto; not many ever possess the drive and talent to do it right. 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 Bravo
thank you for not trying to fill you channel with sub par projects just to get views and clicks, everything you put out is inspiring. even if its once a month, or every six months, thank you, it's worth it
I don't make stuff for RUclips. But I always like to do something around the house. A few months ago I saw your workbench video and it inspired me to make my own furniture for the house. since then, 2 chests of drawers and a bed for my daughter are in the process. you are an incredible master!!!
I'm 20 now and I've been learning about furniture making since I was 16. Whenever I watch your videos and learn new techniques, I feel like I haven't learned a single lesson in those 4 years. And the way you talk gives a different energy to go deeper into the woodwork. Hoping to learn more from you
That’s one heck of a sculpt for such a nimble looking structure. 13:09 is a great message to keep an open mind, also there is something to learn in every field that you can apply to yours.
I make stuff, just not for RUclips. Beautiful work. The leg design sort of reminds me of an antler. Very organic and stunning. Love your passion for creating unique pieces
I am absolutely mesmerized by how your mind works with these extraordinary pieces of furniture. I could seriously watch your videos over and over again and still learn more at every step! Thank You for your hard work and dedication to your craft and also allowing us to see inside your world of furniture!!! Mike!
I MAKE STUFF!! you are an inspiration &I respect your skills&mixture of art with craftsmanship. I have educational videos as well as builds being a 3rd generation arborist for over 30years ,owned a sawmill for a few years&have been building furniture for some time now(part time for many yrs but have been focusing more as u get older) thank you for sharing wisdom&art with all of us. -Chris
This marriage of utility and art, presentation of process, and exquisite video editing is why I keep coming back and then sharing your videos. Even seeing the model, watching the entire build, and listening to your explanation doesn't demonstrate the complexity of the sculptural portion. The shots at the end made my jaw drop! Absolutely marvelous.
Great video Nick! I love your attention to detail. It really shows when you're attaching the top using wooden clips that are perfectly made even though they will never been seen.
Gorgeous work as always. I've been a woodworker for over 25 years, and every time I watch a video of yours, I feel inspired to up my game. Your videos are always so warm and comforting. I love to watch them with a sip of brandy and a good cigar. You are a true gentleman, an artist, and an incredible woodworker. ✌🍻🥃
I am a huge fan of your work. You pour in just the right amount of everything; simplicity, complexity, art, glamour and experience. And you do the same thing with your videos as well. Your talking makes the process more understandable and not distract like many other youtubers do. Great job man!!
That’s really really awesome 👏🏻 It’s kind of a sculpture about the life cycle of wood. Looking from the sculptured side it’s got an organic flow of a tree growing out the ground and morphing into a desk. Looking forward to the next project 👍🏻
I love your work, it’s always so beautiful. I really appreciate that you are continuing to make client projects and are producing your videos around those projects. A lot of RUclips makers stop doing commissioned projects and become “content creators” while making things for themselves which I feel takes away from the final project because when we make something for ourselves we are willing to accept something that is less than what it might have been. There are three levels of craftsmanship, in my view, the lowest being what we make for ourselves, the second being a commissioned piece, and the ultimate (but most rare) is something we build as an unexpected gift for a loved one. (Your new bench was made for a loved one; yourself, your shop and your craft.) Thank you for continuing to make things on commission and striving for art and beauty.
I Make Stuff - me and my wife are just starting a woodworking channel. We had the idea to fill our recently renovated house with fine furniture that we make ourselves and want to provide plans so others can build alongside us. The idea has gotten derailed lately after the first of our first kid, so we've been making a few more 'kids products' than we planned, but we have a few pieces in mind that we'll hopefully getting started on soon. Your channel is a great inspiration to us, such amazing designs and craftsmanship. Also, making us a little more keen to pack up our tools and move over to OZ.
I just watched your video on building a floating desk. Well done! Your wife is a natural. I'm an Aussie, so yes, you should move here 😊. And I subscribed.
I am a product designer and system developer manufacturing my own CNC Router. I have always worked more as a project designer and system developer, but once I complete the Router I have to do more of the execution part, I loved your videos, and I like the idea of your manual router. It would be an interesting idea to make the same router with computer movement, I really like that... that's why I'm manufacturing my own Router, which is made entirely of aluminum profile and is easy to assemble and disassemble even though it's a large machine for industrial use. ... I also intend to create very exclusive furniture ideas... I still don't have experience with this but I'm watching a lot of videos like yours here on RUclips.
@@pedullastudio you are a great inspiration for me. Keep up the amazing videos. I'm loving them :) I have zero experience with wood working, but I'm confident I will learn and make beautiful furniture. I will share when I have got something to show. (mind that this most likely will be in > 12 months ;))
Many wish they could knock-out their work on a inspirational desk like yours. The precision geometry produces the flowing symmetry that is no accident. I am equally impressed with the simplicity of the tabletop jointery at 29:50. A threaded insert in a domino and a screw. I will also employ your plate glass alignment technique for critical glue-ups. Thank you for sharing and expanding your woodworking knowledge.
Interesting sculptures always live off of the play of light and shadow. If your shop lighting/home lighting doesn't allow for shadows you will not build for/experience the entire effect of the sculpture.
For your young years you have Mastery at your fingertips. Inspiration without technique- know-how- lacks something. The execution is perfect; it's all there: grain, colour, harmony and balance. One of the finest woodworking channels I have watched, and I 've seen a few in my time. Superlative, there is no other word. Greetings from France 🇫🇷
Ho Man - You're a real artist !!! Not only the desk itself is a masterpiece but your video grabbing and postprod are also masterpieces generating so much fascination while viewing ! Compliments !
The youtube algorithm just suggested this channel, no idea how i went so long without coming across it. There's wood working and then there is this, your work is just art.
I make stuff :) I actually have a couple woodworking projects in the works. Things I wanted to document via video since I have a terrible tendency to forget what I've made and let the low self esteem morph into apathy. Your videos are so inspiring. You take woodworking to the next level of possiblity and I'm so here for it
I make stuff, and just start new project on RUclips. I'm 56 years old and got interested in woodworking just 5 years ago. And there are already certain successful projects. Your work is beautiful! Your videos are inspiring! I like this style and I try to shoot my videos in the same style.
Nick!!! These are the types of videos that get me absolutely fired up to get back in the shop and create something unique. Thank you for sharing your incredible work!!!
Great work, and as for "some peoplr wont like how I do this" as a fabricator I see perfect sense in using the grinder / sander / carver to sort the shape out
Hello. I am Jam from Malaysia. I have built a bench after I got inspired from your videos. I am 67, retired and a lady. My family was shocked and at the same time proud that I could do such a bench. I have accumulated some tools too. I hope to build a workshop in my garden soon.
This has been sitting in my "Watch Later" for a few weeks, and I'm very glad I waited until I had time to watch it all in one go and appreciate it fully. Gorgeous work, thank you for sharing it.
Hello Nick! I make stuff. I make: renderings, plans and head the job site when renovating or constructing new homes; I take care of everything from lighting to plumbing fixtures, Choose finishes, draw the millwork plans and elevations, sometimes even for furniture. In my spare time, I like to give old wood new life... repurpose old pieces ... I'm an interior designer by trade..... But I think I am a woodworker at heart. Thank you for your videos and for the time spent on keeping your channel well updated. It has brought me a lot of joy to watch you work and try and follow your thought process as best I could - I am nowhere near your level of execution! .Keep them coming! Cheers!
Not knowing how to make it is the fun part, it engages the brain in a creative way. You are so right to jump on challenging commissions like this. These jobs are few and far between, I love doing this type of work over normal joinery every time. Great job. p.s. I am super envious of your panel saw.
Fantastic craftsman. I was in Sydney a few weeks ago and almost stopped by your studio to see what you had cooking. You give so much calculated inspiration for me and my projects!
All I can say is... WOW! You smashed this unique artistic peice of furniture right out of the ball park my friend. As a retired Antique Chair maker of 33yrs (self employed) brings back for me wonderful joy in building something out of nothing and to be proud of. You managed every aspect of the craft and skill set to create what I call a real "MASTERPIECE"... Thanks for sharing this video!!!
Your wood working is amazing. I have no intention on even attempting to make something similar to your work. Some of it isn’t my taste. But watching your videos are relaxing and just intriguing. Great work … ty sir.
Your furniture is the definition of artwork. I like to think that art is nothing without the work behind it. Your videos do a great job of giving us a glimpse of the work you put into it.
Just found your channel not too long ago, and I have to say, you're an absolutely talented individual and a pleasure to watch. Keep doing what you're doing, sky is the limit. 👏
Nick, not only are you amazing at what you do. Your also a massive inspiration for other woodworkers as well. Love what you do, love how you go about it. So talented yet so humble. Cheers mate!
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences and "lessons learned". I am a hobbyist and find myself trying all sorts of different techniques and styles. You have provided me some insights into the "can do" mindset to create new pieces of furniture and objects d'art. Thank you.
Every projects I have had the opportunity to watch, makes me happy to witness such skills, well done, interesting and so much for me to learn it is a bit late at my age but it is great to see that a young generation doing such artistic work.
8:28 - They literally don't though. I'm subscribed to people who upload videos that are over 5 hours long and RUclips has no qualms about that. You don't have to be concise at all, just informative and accurate.
I love good design - that‘s why I look forward every new video you release. The dynamic lines you create are mindblowing. You are a true master of your craft . Thank you for sharing your art. I am no maker but an enthusiast. Nene
I make stuff, no vids just yet. Left corporate America in early 2020 and been at it full time since. Custom beds, nightstands, dressers, and wall decor. Always a pleasure watching your work come to life. Best storyteller as your build takes place I know of, thank you for that. Joining your patreon shortly after I finish this video. Been meaning to for awhile now. Cheers Mate
Thank you so much for sharing your work with us. Your thought process and design are beyond words. I look forward to every update from such a skilled artist.
Thanks very much. Amazing and inspiring. Please keep annoying those who get annoyed. You're absolutely right about uniqueness especially in this world of disposable cookie cutter furniture. Original creations are rare compared to factory made multiple copies but there are many creators out there and thanks for helping to promote them. I make stuff but don't video it and often forget to even take a photo.
I make stuff and a lot of the video elements I try to capture are inspired by your vids. You’ve always got the lighting and finishing sequence spot on. You’ve got the best woodworking content hands down
the craftsmanship is impressive. I remember doing wood work when I was at university for a film project. We needed those Japanese traditional sliding doors. And the problem solving was really fun. As we had no money, I remember looking at the bin full of scrap wood and having my piece made out of so many different wood pieces.
Love the channel call out Nick. Such a wonderfully worded promotion for every channel out there that is making, Large and small. PS only half way through and am mesmerised by the narration and pace of the video. You have a real talent for the video side as well as the obvious, building skills. Thank you.
I make stuff…as one of your Patrons I really appreciate how you have supported other makers and using your audience to share their work. I have a few build videos posted and more in the works that I’m hoping to get posted soon. I feel like the video work is the hardest part. Cheers!
Sublime! I am always amazed by the originality, technicality and quality of realization of your creations. What you do is purely beautiful and very inspiring! 🇫🇷
As a life long surfer, I love the flow and curves of your designs…I see the lines I want to be in. Your a an amazing craftsman and one of the best furniture designers I’ve ever seen.
even though i am now retired i really enjoy seeing a fellow craftsman produce something of this quality. don't worry about the hate on domino's, when its a case of how much bread can you put on your families table, then the quickest way is often the best. i spent many years as a one man shop doing commission only pieces. the thought of doing production work scared the pants of me as far as boredom went.
I once did an order for 400 complete bedroom sets for a lodge, as an amateur during normal times, that was a very stressful project. I will do it again for the financial benefits but that might cause a person to loose the love for woodworking.
Hi Nick, Beautiful as always. When the video started and you said that the bends would be difficult, I immediately thought of boat builders who by having the luxury of working with green wood including root buttresses and branches can almost always find the shape they need in nature. The trade off is that it’s rare to get everything from a single tree but because color matching is not a problem, they manage to make some fantastic bent structural elements of their boats. Wouldn’t be nice to have a whole tree milled and dried, branches and all, to see what one could make? Probably never happen, but one can dream. Anyway, a most enjoyable build. I’m awaiting the next one impatiently. Cheers, Keith
I make stuff. 🥰Wow, fabulous work as always. You have miles of experience and your workshop is the stuff of dreams! Yes, I make stuff & have a teeny channel. Thanks for paying it forward & being so supportive!
Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful. Whoever is the keeper of this lump of awesomeness is very lucky! 😎 Great video as well, keep up the great work.
I make stuff. Currently it is mostly building out my shop. No videos from RUclips yet, but a few pics and reels on Instagram. Videos like this one gives me so much inspiration to learn this craft.
A big thanks to all of you for the support!
Amazing work as always. Thanks for the inspiration
Up until 31 minutes ago I was feeling pretty good about my woodworking abilities, But now, FORGET IT! LOL Can you please consider us mere mortals and stop having us consider taking our own lives. LOLOLOL! I think in order to keep my honor, I take my life In the Japanese way....Sepuku! ROFLMAO!!

Which mask are you using? Trying to buy the right respirator at the moment and yours looks like a great option 0:46
As a professional film maker and a hobbyist woodworker I would have thought you had a background in video production. Your woodworking is truly inspiring, but it’s the quality of your videos that keeps me coming back to your channel. Thanks for all the great content.
Thanks so much
Absolutely. The video work spot on.
I agree with @@royunderwood7514 . These videos are amazing...the ending of this one a burst of all that is good.
Absolutely, as a photographer, I can say his b roll is top notch
Telling people to shout out their own channels in the comments speaks volumes to your character. Fan for life.

@@Mikkelsuper21Thanks very much, Mikkel!

I love the way he casually works with huge chunks of gorgeous walnut. The budget just for wood on this build must be huge.
Wow, you blow my mind! You’re a brilliant designer and maker. I get very excited every time you post a video and never want them to end. Best woodworker on RUclips.

1. You are an artist, period!
2. How in the world can you work in such a dimly lit shop?
The coolest things in the world come from dimly light spaces.
I’ve noticed that also! Assuming he sets the mood just for the shots. It’s quite the vibe
Interesting sculptures always live off of the play of light and shadow. If your shop lighting/home lighting doesn't allow for shadows you will not build for/experience the entire effect of the sculpture.

Nick!!! These are the types of videos that get me absolutely fired up to get back in the shop and create something unique. Thank you for sharing your incredible work!!!
Great to hear!
Great work, and as for "some peoplr wont like how I do this" as a fabricator I see perfect sense in using the grinder / sander / carver to sort the shape out
Hello. I am Jam from Malaysia. I have built a bench after I got inspired from your videos. I am 67, retired and a lady. My family was shocked and at the same time proud that I could do such a bench. I have accumulated some tools too. I hope to build a workshop in my garden soon.
This has been sitting in my "Watch Later" for a few weeks, and I'm very glad I waited until I had time to watch it all in one go and appreciate it fully. Gorgeous work, thank you for sharing it.
I really like the combination of artistry (exceptional), outlook, and commentary that comes with your videos
Hands down my favourite woodworking channel on RUclips, great content.
Hello Nick! I make stuff. I make: renderings, plans and head the job site when renovating or constructing new homes; I take care of everything from lighting to plumbing fixtures, Choose finishes, draw the millwork plans and elevations, sometimes even for furniture. In my spare time, I like to give old wood new life... repurpose old pieces ... I'm an interior designer by trade..... But I think I am a woodworker at heart. Thank you for your videos and for the time spent on keeping your channel well updated. It has brought me a lot of joy to watch you work and try and follow your thought process as best I could - I am nowhere near your level of execution! .Keep them coming! Cheers!
Not knowing how to make it is the fun part, it engages the brain in a creative way. You are so right to jump on challenging commissions like this. These jobs are few and far between, I love doing this type of work over normal joinery every time. Great job. p.s. I am super envious of your panel saw.
Fantastic craftsman. I was in Sydney a few weeks ago and almost stopped by your studio to see what you had cooking. You give so much calculated inspiration for me and my projects!
What can i say? Your work is on another level of woodworking. It's not just woodworking, it is an art. Hats off to you, Master.
Thank you
"He who works with his hands and his head and his heart is an artist" St. Francis Assisi. You sir are an Artisian. Beautiful work.
Wow! Another beautiful sculpture! Your work is incredible!
Another great design nick looks awesome! Nice job the leg curves look like they grew that way@
All I can say is... WOW! You smashed this unique artistic peice of furniture right out of the ball park my friend. As a retired Antique Chair maker of 33yrs (self employed) brings back for me wonderful joy in building something out of nothing and to be proud of. You managed every aspect of the craft and skill set to create what I call a real "MASTERPIECE"... Thanks for sharing this video!!!
Nick you never cease to amaze. I know your clients are over the moon happy and honored at the same time to have one of your pieces
Thank you
Your wood working is amazing. I have no intention on even attempting to make something similar to your work. Some of it isn’t my taste. But watching your videos are relaxing and just intriguing. Great work … ty sir.
Your furniture is the definition of artwork. I like to think that art is nothing without the work behind it. Your videos do a great job of giving us a glimpse of the work you put into it.
Just found your channel not too long ago, and I have to say, you're an absolutely talented individual and a pleasure to watch. Keep doing what you're doing, sky is the limit. 👏
Nick, not only are you amazing at what you do. Your also a massive inspiration for other woodworkers as well. Love what you do, love how you go about it. So talented yet so humble. Cheers mate!
Thanks so much
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences and "lessons learned". I am a hobbyist and find myself trying all sorts of different techniques and styles. You have provided me some insights into the "can do" mindset to create new pieces of furniture and objects d'art. Thank you.
Every projects I have had the opportunity to watch, makes me happy to witness such skills, well done, interesting and so much for me to learn it is a bit late at my age but it is great to see that a young generation doing such artistic work.
8:28 - They literally don't though. I'm subscribed to people who upload videos that are over 5 hours long and RUclips has no qualms about that. You don't have to be concise at all, just informative and accurate.
Domino : I'm a pure hobbyist but still, one of the first tool I bought and really love it. Another absolute joy to watch this video. Thanks a lot
Stunning design and truly a one-of-a-kind desk. Your videos are true art
Oh boy, that's gorgeous. BIG thanks for your generosity to see how you do it...
Absolutely stunning work. I'm so impressed by your attention to detail and willingness to make mistakes. It's inspirational, sir.
I have been a subscriber for some time now and appreciate that you have come out from behind the mask and are using your voice, good job mate.
That's an amazing desk. I can truly appreciate the time it took to think about how to even begin something this complex. Well done, sir.
I love good design - that‘s why I look forward every new video you release. The dynamic lines you create are mindblowing. You are a true master of your craft . Thank you for sharing your art. I am no maker but an enthusiast. Nene
I make stuff, no vids just yet. Left corporate America in early 2020 and been at it full time since. Custom beds, nightstands, dressers, and wall decor. Always a pleasure watching your work come to life. Best storyteller as your build takes place I know of, thank you for that. Joining your patreon shortly after I finish this video. Been meaning to for awhile now. Cheers Mate
Thanks so much. Nice headboard video by the way!
Thank you so much for sharing your work with us. Your thought process and design are beyond words. I look forward to every update from such a skilled artist.
Thank you
Thanks very much. Amazing and inspiring. Please keep annoying those who get annoyed. You're absolutely right about uniqueness especially in this world of disposable cookie cutter
furniture. Original creations are rare compared to factory made multiple copies but there are many creators out there and thanks for helping to promote them. I make stuff but don't video it and often forget to even take a photo.
I make stuff and a lot of the video elements I try to capture are inspired by your vids. You’ve always got the lighting and finishing sequence spot on. You’ve got the best woodworking content hands down
the craftsmanship is impressive. I remember doing wood work when I was at university for a film project. We needed those Japanese traditional sliding doors. And the problem solving was really fun. As we had no money, I remember looking at the bin full of scrap wood and having my piece made out of so many different wood pieces.
Love the channel call out Nick. Such a wonderfully worded promotion for every channel out there that is making, Large and small. PS only half way through and am mesmerised by the narration and pace of the video. You have a real talent for the video side as well as the obvious, building skills. Thank you.
Thanks so much
I make stuff…as one of your Patrons I really appreciate how you have supported other makers and using your audience to share their work. I have a few build videos posted and more in the works that I’m hoping to get posted soon. I feel like the video work is the hardest part. Cheers!
Your TV Console is great! Well done!
Thank you! I didn’t say it before but great video and beautiful piece as well.
Beautiful desk. Thanks for sharing your process!
Sublime! I am always amazed by the originality, technicality and quality of realization of your creations. What you do is purely beautiful and very inspiring! 🇫🇷
Thank you
The dowel trick was genius. Your craft is truly inspiring
What a wonderful idea about the leg that stretch out.
This is creative art that is functional at the same time.
As a life long surfer, I love the flow and curves of your designs…I see the lines I want to be in. Your a an amazing craftsman and one of the best furniture designers I’ve ever seen.
Thank you
Idk y but watching these kinds of vids late at night just hits different.
even though i am now retired i really enjoy seeing a fellow craftsman produce something of this quality. don't worry about the hate on domino's, when its a case of how much bread can you put on your families table, then the quickest way is often the best. i spent many years as a one man shop doing commission only pieces. the thought of doing production work scared the pants of me as far as boredom went.
I once did an order for 400 complete bedroom sets for a lodge, as an amateur during normal times, that was a very stressful project. I will do it again for the financial benefits but that might cause a person to loose the love for woodworking.
It's a delight to watch a master craftsman work. It also inspires me to aim high in the quality of my work in my own respective field.
Hi Nick,
Beautiful as always. When the video started and you said that the bends would be difficult, I immediately thought of boat builders who by having the luxury of working with green wood including root buttresses and branches can almost always find the shape they need in nature. The trade off is that it’s rare to get everything from a single tree but because color matching is not a problem, they manage to make some fantastic bent structural elements of their boats. Wouldn’t be nice to have a whole tree milled and dried, branches and all, to see what one could make? Probably never happen, but one can dream. Anyway, a most enjoyable build. I’m awaiting the next one impatiently.
Cheers,
Keith
Eisch, you are a magic craftsman. Your woodworking past with grandpa etc is a massive advantage which is clearly visible. Congratulations 😂
I make stuff. 🥰Wow, fabulous work as always. You have miles of experience and your workshop is the stuff of dreams! Yes, I make stuff & have a teeny channel. Thanks for paying it forward & being so supportive!
This Masterpiece of you created is above excellent. You are in my eyes a Master of this Art. Thank you for sharing your sculptures.
Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful. Whoever is the keeper of this lump of awesomeness is very lucky! 😎 Great video as well, keep up the great work.
I make stuff. Currently it is mostly building out my shop. No videos from RUclips yet, but a few pics and reels on Instagram. Videos like this one gives me so much inspiration to learn this craft.
