Love the way you did that sponsored ad. I usually skip ahead when ads come up but you had it off to the side with no break in the action so I kept watching.

Jose Herrera that was dope!
Very few DIY channels cover multi-domain projects like this. Woodworking + Electric. True Jack of All Trades. Keep up your amazing work.
Superb video. Very clever too. I'm going to have a draw underneath the computer desk with this in mind, thanks
Great video and perfect timing! I was just thinking of making a charging station for my desk to help keep my cameras and film gear charged up! I think this was the inspiration I needed!
Love this idea. Thank you for the detailed walkthrough of adding the extra outlet too.
I'm impressed. The whole fishing the wire and hardwiring an outlet is out of my league.
“Just in case I have an oops”... awesome. Great idea!
Great stuff!! This has been on my to do list since my kitchen renovation. Thank you for sharing. 👍😎🇦🇺
Well done, Glen! You started freaking me out with the electrical. I am taking a Fundamentals to Electrical Wiring class in the fall. Can't wait!

Quick and effective, nice build!
Love seeing new videos pop up here. Recently got into this kind of stuff and now watch every video looking for ideas.
Your techniques will work well to add that charging unit to my computer desk right on top. Great video!
That's the best idea I've seen, a hideaway charging station.....WOW!
Enjoyed this. I’ve been using the same type and brand of wire strippers. They have served me well for over three years now and only replacing the teeth once. Works great in tight spaces.
This is going to be utilized in BOTH my night stands. I lost all ability to plug in since they're right in front of the outlet. Total genius!!! THANK YOU!!!!
Just got home from work.. And this was the first notification I responded to.. Glen you are doing some amazing job.. I like how often I am seeing things from you..😎

I agree. He thinks well outside of the box!
Well done! I can do this from following your description. Thanks!
That was a quick cool mod Glenn, you are the master of quick DIY creations!
Your workmanship is amazing. Such good quality and explained really well. Great video, looking forward to more.
I was thinking about building an entertainment center for a motorized TV Mount. Your videos will be needed as reference for sure 😂
Hopefully a useful tip. --- I used to install cable and low voltage wiring. A good trick for fishing wires in a wall is to have a length of thin steel chain that you can run down the wall to the hole you drilled. You don't need a lot of chain. You can use about 2 feet of chain tied to a string. The weight of the chain will keep your string straight as it goes down the wall. Now that the chain is down in the wall, you can use a magnet to capture the chain and pull it through your hole. Pull it until you get your string, untie the chain and tie on your new wire to fish up the wall. It's that easy. Also, some walls have what is called a "fire block" which is usually a 2x4 that runs horizontal in the wall between the vertical studs. Basically it stops the flow of air up the wall making it harder for fire to spread upwards. It can be a problem when fishing wires.
Great build and I really enjoy the way you explain what you are doing. Thank you!
This turned out great. I love the idea of hiding away all the cords.
9:00 From day1 in the cable TV installation business I was trained to drop that wire with 4 inches of chain attached. A flexible magnet probe went in my wall drops and (SNAPP!) I'd find it easily.
4:19 xD I felt like you were reading us a story here. Thanks for another Great video!
Wow, absolutely amazing clear professional video. Thank you
I’m a carpenter and have been following you for a while. Really like your builds and finish
Very well done. Commentary easy to understand. Thanks
You always explain the process so well.
BRILLIANT!
Ah.... nice! I did build one for my camera gear but have not finished the wiring really. Yours gave me another angle. Thank you!
“This guy” be gettin’ it in! 💯
Glen another great idea well executed!
Love your way of teaching. Thank you!
Great video, thanks for posting!
I was just looking at these flush mount outlets! Great video. Thx
This is awesome! I'm definitely doing this!
Phenomenal build
Awesome project!
Your videos keep getting better! Nice work. I really like the ability to change this later as needed.
Awesome project
Love this idea! Great job!
Great job on this! By far the best one I've seen and the way you executed everything is so neat and tidy.
GREAT JOB!
Great idea!
Dude, you've really got all the gear! Awesome vid. I like your attention to quality and detail.
Thanks Glen! Another awesome video
That's actually a great idea, man! Fantastic! 😃 Really well done!!!
“Caution” You used 14/2 wire. The wire size should match the breaker size protecting it. If you use smaller wire than what is rated for your breaker, it is not protected properly and can actually melt before the breaker trips. Never reduce the size of wire when adding to an existing electrical circuit.

This is an inspiring project and your presentation, in general, is great. Thanks!
Great idea there. Agree with the color of the stain...perfect! Thanks for posting. 👍🏼🇨🇦

I was looking at diy charging stations and your video came up. I KNEW it would be a good one, as I've seen other of your videos, and know they're always helpful ones!
Very well done. Looks fantastic and functional
Fine, fine work 💐 Great concept 👌. Thanks 👍
Awesome job
Nicely done Glen! 😃👍🏻👊🏻

You sir, deserve a subscribe. Extremely good video. Keep it up
Very cool!
First time visitor * * * * Thanks Glen
Hey Glen thanks for the videos, great idea and simple solution
You make some of the best videos ever!
Thank you for the video, very helpful.
was thinking about doing that to my computer desk. great video.
Very nice!
@8:18 : Very useful tool.. I borrowed this from a friend, twice.. Agreed with you..
Wow. New here. Thank you. Excellent video and quality project. Very impressive.
Wow!! Great work and video.
Wow! You are one talented man! Thanks for the excellent videos
Just subscribed. I watch several of your videos. You do a great job presenting your work.
What a great job and awesome idea!
Very good video! Cheers!
Awesome !
Great project. And it's good to see someone that knows the proper way to use wire nuts by not twisting the wires before putting on the nut. The wire nut does the twisting and you get a much better bite.

I couldn’t ever put a wire nut on solid wires and not twist the wires. Just my own pet peeve.
Really awesome video... love the idea and the customizable drawer
That's genius!
Great video with techniques worth learning. I like all of this except for charging Lithium batteries in a confined, wooden space.
This isn’t what I was looking for, but what a GREAT idea. Thanks, I’m going to try this for myself. It’s a much better solution than having a wooden-coloured power-bar on my desktop as I was initially planning.
Hi, I love to watch your videos. The way you manage to shoot and work simultaneously single handle is great. Would like to see your behind the scene video on how you shoot all the stuff and the positions of your cameras at the same time. Doing awesome work buddy. Some love from India.
Excellent video! You nailed it step by step with very helpful tips! Nice work!
Very nicely done and pretty close to what I'm gone do in my kitchen 👍🏾
مبدع ومحترف
Perfect thinking n excellent idea .
nice..loved the idea..
I like the Ads playing in the corner as you work. That is Smart and the proper way to keep subscribers.. I unsubsribe to many many channels because of sudden Cut-In commercials.. Keep up the Fantastic job..
This is pretty great.
Great video.
Glen, tbh, I'm the kind that would have such outlets EVERYWHERE. I also would do that to make it convenient for others if they need to charge their devices. Basically, not just for me but for those that would come visiting.
Brilliant
Lot of great information thanx!
Mix the useful with convivial. Amazing💥💥💥
Great video! Most kitchens are on a 20 amp circuit white requires 12 gauge wire (12/2 wire).
This is a brilliant idea. I'm inspired watching someone so dynamic and inventive. What's the next project going to be? : )
Awesome fam
Nice one Glen you have given me a few ideas on this one thanks man
This is a good idea. thanks for the video
Nice tip for measuring the cable in the jbox
Nice! Thank you!
Great video
Great job! Thank you you, so much for sharing! I was looking everywhere to find a video that would show start to finish how to do this! ... And I subscribed to your channel! Thank you so much!!
