Great to see your videos. The projects you do are really expiring and give new insights to desiging and building a desk of my own.

I really like the simplicity of your work , as someone who worked in London for four years, i got to see how you guys are doing things , when i say , "you guys", i mean westerners :) . I'm from Romania ,that's why i'm saying this, we have a bit of a different thing going on , as in small prices , a lack of proper timber and time clients like to wait . That being said , i'm attempting in opening a new shop right now ,back home in Bucharest, in witch i want to make things ,the western way. :)) I've learned a ton of things being in London , In Romania the pride of being a carpenter (we call carpenter anyone that works with wood) has been lost, and i got mine back by experiencing what is like in UK. I probably would've loved it more if i would've worked in America, since i've grew up with american culture , i speak english in an american way and i'm sure i would've loved the weather , witch i can't say the same about UK . But without telling everyone my life story :) , i love the way you make things , i've done a ton of awesome work myself, so from a carpenter to another , respect brother ! Shout out from Romania and much love.

Hi Chris, thank you so much for your videos and designs. It really inspired me to bring my woodworking to the next level or at least trie. I designed and made some thinks in the last months on my own. But this desk ist so awsome that i had to rebuild it. Now it is nearly finished so i thought this ist the right time to say thank you! Greetings from Germany Btw. I discovered that Black walnut is a great wood for the handplane. I treated the legs with it befor glueup and there is no need for sanding afterwards. Much faster, alot more fun and a smoother finish then 240grid. So, thanks again!

Really love this design, Chris! Now how do we get Michael to start a second channel about trains so he can call it Alm's Caboose? I haven't watched part II yet, so I am going out on a little bit of a limb here, but great build and video as always Chris! ;)

Hey Travis...sort of. It' all built in real scale, so you can go in with the tape measure tool or protractor tool to extract all that info...but it doesn't just list it.

What program do you use for designing your pieces? I'm still rocking old school graph paper but want to try some design software.

Very nice. Since this is labeled 'how to' are there plans and tips for those of us that don't have expensive tools? :) Thanks.

Not less stable. In theory they could make it more stable (if they give it a wider stance)... they would, probably, decrease the amount of weight you could set on top. So you might not do this for a workbench or something. But for a desk, or a dining table... no problem if don’t correctly.
