For sure best advice is to wait a day after milling to use your wood!! Also the analogy with the fish is perfect 😂
Love your transparency and humorous honesty. Makes me feel less of a doofus! Very nice end product!
Probably your best one yet - I sniggered, snorted and cackled my way through the whole thing. The neighbor was the icing on the cake
A suggestion - for your match fit sled, create a matching height slab that fits in the miter slot on the opposite side of the blade (like an Incra 5000 sled). That will support your piece that overhangs the match fit sled without having to trim pieces down before you use your sled. Also - I still have flamingos in my front yard. During Mardis Gras, someone actually came and put a pink necklace with a flamingo on it around the neck of my biggest flamingo. I still don’t know who it was, but I love their sense of humor and style.
Lol. "Doesn't totally suck" == Success! in my world. Great video. Glad build videos aren't dead. Someone said they are dead.
Neighbor John is the man. Nice work, Jon!

That air compressor use to move glue into spaces is genius im definitely stealing that one.
That was an awesome first epoxy table build 👏👏👏. But I have to admit I laughed my $$$off when your mom recognized the tables base, priceless. You’re a good son 👌
Nice job. I also completely agree that the most important tool in a workshop is a large level work surface (something I am lacking in my basement shop, but I'm working on one now). Thanks for sharing.
Your neighbour John needs a cameo in future videos.
as an aspiring knifemaker, I absolutely loved the sharpening of the armrest. thank you for another wonderful build video!
The water stones, that side look, and your daughter staring certain injury in the face had me practically crying. 😂 Who doesn’t love a finely honed chair arm, nice job AI. 🙄 Great video as usual!
The hype for a new miter station is real. I love the open cabinets on top of the Jay Bates design. The John Meleki design is definitely my favorite looking. I find the most challenging part wether you seal off or try to use the space behind the fence. I’ve seen a nice cup/tray design inset behind fence and then the cabinet starts about four inches back. Like a gutter before the cabinet. Also seen panels you can lift up to access inside the cabinets. Having front-to-back counter too is nice even with a fence if you raise the cabinets up. Then wether you make separate lower cabinets and connect them simply or you want more elaborate saw box with dust collection structure. So many options.
I love the project manager❣️ Keep up the great work.
I too have used AI to help with furniture ideas, I've noticed that it loves impossible shapes, so if you try to follow it too closely you could end up trying to make something out of an Escher print.
I also started out using folding tables. Still in the process of getting my shop setup. Finishing up my first workbench this weekend!
See, this video... it doesn't totally suck. Well done!
Your neighbor John is awesome!
You’re a class act man! Loved every aspect of the story, project, and your video production. Kudos 3,000
Heck yea an actual Lincoln Street build video, feel like its been awhile. Chairs turned out great man! I've had that epoxy shoe trick in my head for awhile, never seen it done before. Would love to know how long it extends the chairs life.
I appreciate the balance of instructions/lesson and antagonizing.
Lovely video and enjoyed following along your build. I got a bit curious abot the AI design phase and would have loved to hear more about your approach, what phrases you uset etc. The final result looks a lot like a slightly simplifyed Selig chair
20:15 taking out the diamond stones is pure comedy gold
I love the ending!😄
I definitely favor trigger clamps over f clamps
I’ve owned that dewalt drill bit holder (24:00) for 10 years and always thought mine was broke. I have never thought to slide the sleeve out that far to help center the screw…makes total sense now if that was the design purpose of it.
Great build! I really enjoy your talent and your candor. Thanks!!

For offcut wobbles during tapering - I like to throw down a matching thickness piece of mdf/ply as my sled. It’s actually so convenient I normally use it every time, it even has its own runner to essentially make it zero clearance
That's a cool design! I asked Dall-E to come up with a side table and it gave me several images of a leviathan horror crossed with an IKEA foot stool. Also, would love to see another podcast episode, I found it really interesting as a sort of 'behind the scenes'.
Thank you for showing all of the small, annoying steps that go into a complex built like this. Even something as simple as cutting, prepping and installing those pieces for the faux dados to hold your slats. So much time! Absolutely beautiful end product. I saved up and bought a domino three years ago. One of my favorite tools! Use it on every project now. Worth every penny.

Can absolutely relate to angry cutting time. An inverted measurement, not securing a toggle properly causing movement. etc... It's the small human errors, but with patience and persistence the result is gratifying. At least that's the plan. Keep on keepin' on man!

Just had one today. Spent days planning an out of town project, everything measured, go for assembly and you realize something just isn't quite right. For me, it was forgetting that a measurement from a flange wasn't the measurement for the piece. Minor and specific error, universally felt I think.
Great build video. I enjoy these.
Great build!! Impressed!
Love the attitude! 😂 Great content! Thanks for getting it all together.
Great video! Chairs are tricky and fun

Just found your channel. Great stuff man. Love the humor and super informative.
That totally didn't suck. Love the no nonsense, don't have to use the 5 cut method and measure to 0.001" on everything, overbuild beyond normal use build mentality so many KZreadrs get caught up in. The project turned out great. Thanks for the tip on the flush cut saw, picked one up for a project that I've got coming up.
@NWGR
Жыл бұрын
You don't use the 5 cut method to measure "to 0.001" on everything". You use it to setup your tools to make sure they're cutting accurately. If your tools aren't cutting accurately, the errors will compound throughout the project, and if you're 1/16" off to start, by the time you get to assembly, you may be out 1/4" in some places.

@@NWGR I’m aware. I was making a point that too often people measure to a degree that is absurd for wood that moves more than that. By the way, I’ve made numerous custom pieces that heavily used my crosscut sled built with a square ;)

With you on the miter saw bit. I hated miter saws til i bought the Bosch GCM12SD. I'll never regret that purchase
Came up well. When applying oil finishes, don't remove the dust from sanding as it acts as a wick allowing the oil to penetrate further into the timber.
Enjoyed your video. Thank you!

Planing the wood with a hand plane makes the surface smooth and eliminates the burn marks.
