⏱️⏱️VIDEO CHAPTERS⏱️⏱️
0:00 - Trying an interesting intro....maybe unsuccessfully :D
0:30 - Picking up where we left off
0:58 - The beginning of my downfall
1:04 - FINALLY starting some actual woodworking
1:30 - Starting to look like something finally
2:06 - We find out... it looks good
2:14 -Sniff count 2
3:15 - The legs, handtools only
6:53 - Sniff Count 3
6:58 - All went downhill from here
8:16 - Sniff Count 4
9:08 - I think this fits as a midlife crisis
10:31 - Sniff Count 5 -we got there!!!!
This Coffee table Was built with free or scrap materials.
The Pallet was found on the side of the road, the mirror (and by extension glass top) was found on craigslist from an old bathroom remodel, they were giving it away for free.
The few pieces of wood I use were from my scrap/burn bin.
This Whole build costs less than $40, and closer to $20 if you only count what was used.

    Glad I’m not the only one who gets frustrated and has to improvise mid-build! Watching some of these “pro” KZread builders makes me think they get everything right the first time. Thanks for sharing ALL your experiences!

    Right?!?!? Its definitely tempting to make it look like everything went according to plan, would be disingenuous though

    I really like making your own light weight bricks. I'll have to use that in further projects. Thx

    Thanks! I literally came up with that idea day of. they sell faux brick walls sheeting for like 60 bucks.... Didn't want to spend any money on this. Necessity is the mother of invention I hear...

    bro, this is such a creative idea. A better showcase of the end result would have been nice. also it was kind of refreshing too see someone without complete festool gear and a sick workshop building stuff. i can relate to that way more. all the best for you 💯💯😂👌👍

    You are 1100% correct, I don't know why I didn't think to do a lil showcase at the end of it, haha. In my head I was thinking "they saw enough of it, its in the thumbnail of the other one and in the intro, blablablah" All my festool gear is in my OTHER shop, I was just slummin it. 😂

    I spoke too soon about you cutting glass in part 1. Sorry. I agree with you about the satisfaction of using hand tools. Hope to see more videos from you.

    nothing to apologize for, you didn't screw up the glass cutting, that was all on me :D It's a lesson learned and at least it was a lesson learned on free material without blood being spilt, I'll take it! the hand tools was something I was not expecting, very satisfying for how much longer it takes, thinking of doing a hand tool only build for something in the future, just haven't figured out what yet. Thanks!

    @@thewannabecraftsman oh, I knew that I had not jinxed you. I was watching these back to back Initially, hand tools are a bit slower. With a bit of practice (often resulting in extra kindling for the fire), it becomes pretty fast. Hope to keep seeing your videos
