You should change your title to "a tool" because you definitely are one 😂🤣

This is a window board not a stool. Yes a sill is external, but most people use the terms interchangeably.

Don’t be an ass most people call this a sill even though it’s incorrect. So he’s got the right name in the title if he wants people to find it.

You ain't nothing but a dan GENIUS! Thanks for the video brotha!

That cracked me up, when you threw that plastic one 🤓👍

You are a life saver, we have a house that had awful i mean awful low quality window board sills all that stuff that peels. replaced bathroom and all rooms now after watching your video with natural woods and look so much better. thank you for posting this video dude!

Dude I am so glad I found your video. I just got done drywalling and mudding my daughter's room I built in the basement. I just bought a piece of poplar to make a window stool. Watching your video gave me the confidence to attempt this myself. Thank you

Thank you for the awesome video! I love the contrast of the natural wood; it's highlighted against the white.

You made that look way easier than I suspect it is

Great job! Beats a rambling commentary as well!!

Love the idea of using butcher block. I have used grsnit in the same way for bathroom niches. Amazing work two thumbs up 👍 👍

Dude, the video was simple, nice and well made. Keep up the enthusiasm and good work. P.S. Sill or Stool or Board. Doesn't matter - Forget people who are picky. I understand, when someone corrects you, but when they say 'you should know if this is what you do for a living'.... I mean, why? Sigh.... some people just can't be without belittling others.... Teach, share your knowledge, but not at the behest of making others feel small

Really nice tidy job, perfect and love the colour of the sill

I made my first window sills today . Thank you👍

Amazing craftsmanship - keep it up. Can I ask how much of a overhang you kept on the cill horns?

I hope that you can open your oven after installation of your new sill ;) Anyways awesome video!

I’m going to do mine just like you!

great project - craftsmanship is splendid. I hope the oven door (when opened) doesn't catch the edge of the window sill though?

@@CraftAndu ok I have to now confess I went to garage to find some decent wood and a 10ft piece of white plastic shelf was there on the shelf! I swear I didn't know I had it. There wasn't a long piece of wood so I folded and went for the plastic. ....I know .....but if it helps I do have another 2 sills to do so I will definitely give them a wood finish. I will send a pic. I know it's like confessions, but what can I say I'm weak.

I can't think of a reason why screws would be better than glue but if you are certain then I would recommend drilling a bigger hole, sinking the screw head well below the surface and then pluging the hole with a dowel. Good luck!

They are custom made for every window on the spot.

Very true, 7 people outta 10 will call a stool "sill", but that is beside the point, here the issue is that when that piece of wood so tightly inserted in place will get some moister (and that will happen) I believe you'll be in trouble.... just sayin....

No leveling ? 😮
