Hey Brother. I'm sorry for leaving a comment on your videos that I've been watching on the TV in my living room, but I'm recovering from my 1st knee replacement surgery. I hijacked my oldest sons laptop to leave a comment on this latest video of yours. I have to say I was moved to tears several times after listening to the testimony of the blind woodworker who was seeking help, or ideas for improving work flow through his shop.!?! I certainly most admit, after that man's inspiring story, I truly find myself without excuse. Thank You Sir, for sharing such a story, and continuously encouraging your viewership to press-on. Do tell the Mrs. Happy Mother's Day.

I hear you sir. I fell and broke my arm up near the shoulder a while back and its still not working right. Having to put ice packs on it a lot and stretch it to keep it from locking up. So I'm not doing any wood working but, I sure do enjoy Matthew's videos. Hope and prayer you get well soon.

Sundays are breakfast, church, lunch and Matthew's videos.

Hey Matt, I was at a farmers market and found a guy the was selling wooden stuff. I recognized at least half of his inventory from your videos. The mini picnic tables for mustard and ketchup bottles with salt and pepper shakers, and the napkin dispenser table, were both priced at $35 (each).

Hey Matthew. I’m a hobby woodworker who really enjoys gifting my large family projects from the wood shop. I watch your videos to get me pumped up, work smart, and have confidence in my woodworking. Thanks again, sir.

Hey, you can use those 1/4 inch strips for succulent containers. Everybody loves a nice looking container for their succulent plants.

Have a Blessed Sunday

My wife likes hanging baskets for her plants, and I think she would really like one of those. Guess I will need to hit the scrap pile and make her a couple of them

Happy Mother's Day to Mrs. Peech good sir.

I just don't believe people pay top money for some of these. That's so funny. Great video Matt!

Probably start at that price then drop gradually over time until a trend of buyers begin. We don’t see how many buy, how much for, or how frequently. Most women love that stuff and if they got the money they buy it.

Apparently you have never walked around in The Pottery Barn, or Kirklands, or Hobby Lobby. These companies are making bank on cheap imported fake “hand made” MDF junk.

Making that abstract art into a shape of a state would do well also 😊

Thanks for your videos. I really get inspired by your work. I looked at the $4,000 wall art pic. I saw the shape of Texas. And since I’m from Texas… I gotta try it. Thanks again.

Just two nights ago I was sketching out (doodling, more like) how to use the small off cuts from pickets. The same type of pieces in the video. The only difference was that I wanted to use shorter pieces for the spacing but with a decorative/unique cut. This series is great. I have binged most, if not all, and look forward to new ones. Big thanks.

If you’re looking for something to use those 1/4” cutoffs on,how about using them for paper towel holders to attach to the underside of a kitchen cabinet?

Great video Series! Loving it! With those 1/4" scraps, you could probably make little "Painting Easels" to hold pictures or phones/tablets. Like an A-frame, with a hinge-like strut as a stand from the back. the horizontal part of the "A" is where the phone sits. Maybe its been done before, but it would be a use for the scraps...

On the firewood "stool" you could flip it over drill down from the bottom with a forstner bit, use a oscillating tool to finish it off. Use what you got.

If you are leary about plunge cutting with a chainsaw or circular saw, make an L notch in your leg tops and have the top sitting in the notch.

LOVE that you are constantly encouraging us to believe in ourselves . THANK YOU Matthew Peech.

I made a bunch of them 4 years ago called them Romeo and Juliet boards.

Omgosh! I made one of the scrap planters earlier this year, never thought of selling them. I remembered my dad making something similar back in the 70's. I drilled holes about a 1/2 inch from the ends and put parachute cord through tied at the top and made a bottom tassel. So easy to do

I very much enjoy and appreciate your videos and ideas. My favorite teacher thanks

My advice if you were making mini trellises is to make the mini planter to go with it and sell it as a set.

For the hanging planter box, screws and glue should be used on every corner joint. Each corner joint supports the weight of all of the wood below their level plus the potted plant divided by 4. If the plant pot is sitting on 4 bottom slats, then each slat joint supports just the weight of the potted plant divided by 8. The corner joints have at least as much stress as the bottom slat joints, and probably more.

Always love your videos!…&…all the inspiration…keep them coming!…👍

i just saw an old shelf/table at the local public auction sell for 200, the only difference from yours was that it had metal rails, legs, and a center brace. So yeah even at a public auction these absolutely sell.

for your scraps make a sunburst with a small circle mirror in the middle

I always enjoy watching your brain work!

I like watching your videos and you have great information about the product you make ,please make all videos you can what you are making marketing. I like to follow your passion for your products make myself more interested and more motivated to make my own products. Thanks and GodBless you and your family.❤

Make log cabin bird houses out of the 1/4 scraps

I love making wood mosaic wall pieces. Great use of all the leftovers

You could use those 1/4 inch scraps to make mini trellis to decorate flower pots ,, Just a quick thought

Thx for sharing Keep building

On the quarter inch material how about use it to make a center design in some geometric art. set up your pieces in different patterns, color them differently, glue then square them up with one flat side and use it as a center inset or medallion on top of the wall art. The different heights makes it 3D art. Like do a geometric thing, then do a cross or diamond on top.

Nice thing about those small scraps you have there. You could take a few and make a bottom then use several more to make 4 sides to make pencil and pen holders. I have done this several times with and scraps under a 1/2". 3 years ago I made 20 of then in a weekend and gave then out for Christmas. And because of that I had one family member tell me that they had a friend want 4 of them and they were happy to find out I only charged 20$ for them. So never get rid of scraps. Think outside the normal and look for and find things to make out of your scraps

To cut the legs, turn stool over and then use a level to mark around all 3 legs

Hi Matthew 👋! I have a suggestion for your bundle of scrap wood. You could make a planter pot cover. ▪︎Find a planter pot (ex. Urn insert pot) ▪︎Cut pieces to the height of the pot or just above. (Cut enough to go around the outside of the pot) ▪︎Drill holes at the top and bottom through the sides of your sticks large enough to fit a piece of string or elastic cord through. ▪︎Tie them around your pot. Paint/stain if desired. I hope to see you try this! -------------------------‐‐----------------------- 🤔 💭 Have you ever tried/used wooden nails? You use them with a pneumatic tool.

Your 1/4 can make plant markers/label picks and growing stakes

My head is spinning, just watched two of your latest videos and can't decide which to make first! So much info, thanks so much

Butterflys… I would install eight (four on top, four on bottom) 3/4” thick Nakashima walnut butterfly biscuits to keep the splits from growing on the rustic stool/end table.

I'm looking at building out a 40' school bus, a Skoolie, or modifying/remodeling a 40' Motorhome as my full time rolling home in the next year. That cleat wall built to fit the few actual walls I'll have will be great to help add more much needed storage. Add a 1/4" plywood bottom & make the rectangles upright to use for holding kitchen utensils. Or make the longer rectangles for holding miscellaneous items in the bathroom or bedroom space. I can see so many uses for the little crate boxes alone. Great idea for sure.

Love your videos Matthew...keep up the great work!

Love your videos; they're super inspirational and encouraging! As for that bundle of 1/4" cutoffs, the most effective way I've found to figure out what to use such "scrap" for is to throw them away; the perfect project will then reveal itself shortly (that's really all it was waiting for 😅 )

As far as the wood strips, i had some half circle cutouts and I was seeing them as rhe sides of a lid for a treasure chest shaped thing with slats for a planter or something else.

Love the small's content. I made that nesting board out of cherry a year and a half ago for my father in law. After dropping them off the next week I was at a customers house measuring some doors. He had a lot of wooden accents in his home that I stopped to check out. I mentioned the boards and he wanted to see a picture. He looks at the picture on my phone and asks how much I was getting for them. Told him $160. He was quite... then says "I'll take 4". COULD NOT BELIEVE IT!!!

Mathew with the thin cap you have do a Kumiko wall hanging.

I like to watch all of your videos like this. I'm not wanting to sell items, I have my day job that takes most of my time. I look at your suggestions as things I might be able to make for my wife, or even as gifts for other family members. There might be a lot of people like me who aren't trying to start a business but want ideas for easily making gifts. I've seen that Pentel pencil hanging from your hat in numerous videos- that is my favorite pencil for general use. I started using 0.5mm mechanical pencils long ago but the lead is somewhat fragile. I started using 0.7mm pencils because the lead doesn't break as easily, then I discovered the 0.9mm models so now that's what I prefer to use and I have at least 3 of them around my desk.

You should mention that you cut the holes first cause if the handle was cut, it would be more sketchy to cut the hole. Pretty sure that's why you did that anyways. I wanted to mention it for folks

I think that last item would be great in the shape of the state you live in.

It just so happens that a tree blew over onto my house Friday evening,I got it all cut up yesterday,I have a ton of logs,to make a ton of those log tables

Mini decorative trellis from those scraps.

1/4 " strips idea , make a small 5×8 shadow box frame and use the 1/4" strips as chevron or herringbone inside.

I'm looking at the stool and thinking you could hog out a hole in the middle, going most of the way down, add a small drain hole in the bottom, and sell it as a planter.
