would probably be great video but waaaayy to much explaining stuff that isn't pertinent and other stuff is just common sense, seriously if someone needs that much hand holding they shouldn't be using anything sharper than child proof scissors!!!

Hey Chad, if you're so smart that this seems over-explained, what are you doing watching in-depth how to videos on KZread?! My guess is that you need more of that 'hand holding' than your ego will allow you to admit? BTW Don't let me catch you running with those scissors! 🤣🤣

Chad don’t be a disrespectful narcissistic know it all. Perhaps you should create your own Chanel and demonstrate your skills and methods. No one forced you to watch Matt’s Chanel. For the rest of us students of Matt’s we appreciate a teacher who actually teaches. Perhaps leaning to be Humble is the gift you can build and create for yourself.
A great teacher explains all the important details that are important to him/her. That's why he's a great teacher. Good job Sir, and thank you.
I’ve been wood working for about 20 years, but never tried edge banding. This video is exactly what I needed, and I now feel confident my project will be successful. Thanks for taking the time to explain and demonstrate all the tools!
It takes as long as it takes. I hate being asked how long something will take, or getting comments myself. Keep up the great work and videos. Allow me to add to this comment I made last night. I was taught a long time ago by a gentleman such as yourself that "Good work isn't cheap, and cheap work isn't good", If I may add, Good work is never rushed, and rushed work is never good. Have an amazing rest of your day and week to all who may be reading this.
Nice job Thank you for taking the time!!!

I think you are doing just great on time to do each shelf. WOW.
I use a lot of banding and this has helped me tremendously to make the banding look much better not mention more durable. Thanks, well done!
Thank you for taking the time to explain things in detail. I love how you break each process down into bite-sized chunks. You would have made a great teacher! Take care!
I’ve been wanting to try edge banding for years. Thanks to you, I think I can now get ‘er done. Thanks for your thoroughness!
This video is incredible. Thank you for taking so much time to explain each tool and its role in the process. This is like an encyclopedia.
Really awesome teacher. Some people talk so much they don’t get any work done and it takes forever. This gentleman explains everything with his few words as possible and works while he’s doing it. That’s the way to teach. Great job.

Thank you so much for your hard work and lectures, I was looking for the t-shirt link but was able to get it from the back of your shirt..lol Thank you from a loyal follower
This channel is an amazing resource which I discovered recently. I'm reviewing your previous "library" of work and can't wait for the "drawers for cabinets" video. Thanks for your commitment to high quality and professionalism.
I appreciate the detail you put into your instruction. I pick up so many pointers, in all your videos, that I will use in future projects. thanks for the great content!
My method is almost identical except for a few tool variations that do the same thing, a big mission to work through a huge stack of parts and feels good when finished.Good job
Great video! I am doing my first edge banding project on a dresser I just built and everything I wanted to know was explained thoroughly.
Wish I would have found your channel months ago. Still blown away at the quality of videos these days!

I'm about to remodel a master bedroom closet and will definitely be utilizing a great deal of the information you passed on in this series of videos. I even got myself a plastic laminate file so I can improve my edges. Thanks again.
Thanks for Sharing your tech. Matt I really enjoy your videos even though I have been doing woodwork we can never stop learning
Thank you for your careful and thorough explanation. I will financially support your channel because your videos are such a great help!
You are absolutely right about the two sided banding tape trimmers. I just got finished doing about 50' using one, and while it helped, sometimes it would dig in. I had a couple of chips and splinters. Mostly, they could be sanded out, and these cabinets were for the laundry room where they won't be seen much, but I wouldn't want that on cabinets that will show. I will be buying the one you recommend for the next cabinet project.
Great job, Matt - thanks. I appreciate the tip on the flush cut pliers. I have been using a scalpel and other less effective methods. I now have one on order. Best regards and thanks again!
Thank you so much for the level of detail and explanation you put into your videos. I don't care how long they are i will always watch and learn from your teachings. Thank you Matt for all your efforts.

I appreciate the time you have taken to explain what your are thinking......what you are hearing......what you are seeing.......and what you are concerned with as you go through the process. It gives me a heads up on what to expect or be aware of as I try this myself. thanks.
I appreciate your methodical approach to and pride in woodworking. In contrary, I find many other shorter videos tend to skim over details that would result in distinguishing exceptional work from ordinary work.
Wow, what a great, super detailed explanation! Please, do not worry, for those who want to get it right it is never long enough! I find that only those who truly know the matter, worry about being able to explain the smallest details, because that detail is precisely what will take years to discover. Thank you so much!
Awesome, complete and through, one of the best

Planning in my first edge banding project. This was a GREAT help!! Thanks!!
Outstanding video. Excellent details of the process and tips that are critical to get a professional result. Please keep up the great work!
Circling back around to videos I've missed over the last couple years. This is such a great example of what you can learn from experience. The tools and the techniques have been pared down to EXACTLY what it takes to get the job done correctly every repetition. Great video Matt.

I added edge banding to a set of book cases I built years ago and use a low angle block pane as a trimmer as I did not know about the proper tool. IF I ever need to edge band anything I will purchase the proper tools, what I really enjoy about your videos is that you calmly and clearly explain what and why you do things. You should be hitting 100 K subscribers before the end of the summer I hope.

Great video. I’ve been building melamine closets all year and have never come up yet with a good solid way to edge band. And I’ve tried everything. I love the trick about holding the iron at an angle. The biggest problem with edgebanding is nicking the edges when you think you have it nice and flush with the surface. Great video I learned a lot. And I’ve been doing this for a long time.

Hi Clint ;-) It’s always..always a pleasure see your clean and straight work. Best Luca
I love your videos an methods. Just like the video on surgical removal of drywall, you can really tell you've had practice. An take pride in getting the best results possible in the most efficient way. I hear the same thing at work about how long things take. An it's a bit ironic I am constantly having to go fix problems on projects. That were done by the same guys who complain about my speed. An I always tell em just about any tradesmen can make something look decent or good enough fast. A true craftsman can go back years later an projects look as good as the day they were completed. I dont know how many times I've had coworkers telling me coping trim is to slow. Meanwhile there shoving a 1/4 inch of caulk in trim. Or even worse blaming walls for not being able to install stain grade trim properly. An taking as much or more time prepping or trying to convince customers it's as good as it can be. You just keep doing your thing. I've been in carpentry for 20 years an can honestly say your the one youtuber that I always learn something from. God Bless an good night
Quality work and thanks for the pro tips!😊
