Dad started getting better habits. LOL

When my wife and I bought out second home, she said it was time to have adult furniture. So we went and priced 'adult' furniture, and I told her, 'No way! I think we could make those nightstands for cheaper.' She gave me some side eye. I said, 'OK, if they come out terrible, we will come back here and buy these.' Were they perfect? Not at all. Does she love them? Yep. So much so I made a matching dresser and bed frame. I don't run from my flaws so I named my business 'Imperfect Furniture'. I think the imperfections show the craftsmanship of a custom piece that you don't get with manufactured furniture.

The youngsters are absolutely incredible! Very inspiring seeing them interact and hold their own with the adults. We need more of this in the world.

I love seeing all the young people that are doing woodworking. Instead of just playing video games.

It was so awesome to meet you and Amy. So approachable and genuine! Exactly what you would expect from what you see on your social media!

John was so awesome when I met him hearing about all the stuff he's done and continues to do is amazing!

Josh was so cool, totally down to earth guy. I really enjoyed getting to know him!

Thank you sir. It was awesome to meet you and chat it up. The fact you came down from Pennsylvania for the inaugural tools and tailgates was bad @$$.

Great video. Love hearing how people got started and the fear they have. Just shows I am not alone in my fears. Personally, I started in the late 80's when I took a woodshop class in HS. Made a bunch of things and my mom still has 2 of them that she uses to this day. Got into it seriously in the late 90's/early 00's. Built a bunch of stuff that is still in use today. Took a break for like 10 years, of course when KZread exploded, but getting back into it now.

Matt, Amy Thank You!!! Great time, met some wonderful folks. Great to see y'all once more.

Thank you. I was not there in person but loved every minute of the video.

My biggest challenge is selling. I usually give things away or donate them to art auctions at churches and schools. I had one lady that lost the auction on one of my pieces because her husband wouldn't let her go over $300, so I told her I'd make one for her, and she wanted to pay me $250. I told her if she paid for materials, that would be fine. I know I could make money with my products, but I just figure it's God blessing me with the talent and creativity, so I'm happy to share His bounty with others. The other challenge is no shop. Sort of like Drew in this video, my shop is a temporary set up. He's in the driveway, I'm on the back patio. Minimum 20 minutes to drag everything out of the shed and set it up, minimum 20 minutes for clean-up and stow away. And it's all weather dependent.

Matt we had a great time and the wife likes the interview with the kids. I had given you a book to read hope you like it and it helps. You both are like farmers and plant seeds of hope and opportunity in people and you see and hear them grow. Thanks again Andrew & Renece🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Greetings from Latvia! Thanks for your videos.. it’s inspiring to do some woodwork 🤝

You are so much more than just a “Woodworking” channel. I appreciate YOU, Matt & Amy! God Bless!

Awesome. Thanks for the talk. Had a great time at the event. Hope to see even more people at the next one.

Bruce looks like the kind of guy you could start a conversation with, and he'd be just a fountain of knowledge. Wish I had a chance to say hi to him

I want to thank you for all you do for the woodworking community and for displaying Christ likeness in a world that needs it so badly. I would have come to this event but my grandson had his first baseball game. Such a blessing to watch your videos. Blessings to you and your family.

Great video Matt hoping you guys come to Denver for a tools and tailgates would love to come have a chance to meet you and Amy and other people that like to do woodworking.

Great video Matt. It's awesome seeing the next generation coming into woodworking. Hopefully I can get to one of the Tools and Tailgates soon. I'm from CT and it would be awesome to do one up this way.

Cant say it enough, thank you Matt and Amy for putting this event together. Shout out to the crew that had the games and food! They were awesome with all the kids. Also cant remember his name, but the gentleman that donated the festool to the giveaway, big shoutout to him as well. Hope to see yall again here in Tennessee some time

Great job as always. So encouraging to hear stories like this!!

Matt, you and Amy have always given me the inspiration to get out to the shop and make something. The wife gives me the inspiration to make it beautiful. Never made anything perfect, but I do my best. No one can do more than that.

This is an Amazing video! I enjoy hearing what other woodworkers have to say! 👍😃👊

Great interviews with a vast range of ages. Lots of encouragement to just get going and do it. Loved the ones that shared about the joy in giving. Thanks Matt and Amy for all you do. I pray God continues to bless you to be a blessing to others!

It's cool how the kids have less fear of criticism than the adults.

I started woodworking by watching you and other on KZread. I love it.

(Jeff with Stewart’s Woodworks) Thanks Matt for the opportunity to talk about our passion. David and Greg had to twist my arm lol as I’m not confident in front of a camera haha. I guess we pulled it off. I think it’s great the measure you’re going through to make these events happen - it says a lot about you guys.

Great video! I subbed to the ones that have channels. Thanks Matt & Amy. 😊

Les Cizek, a former successful business executive left his business in Florida to become a woodworker. He studied his craft under the late master woodworker, author and teacher James Krenov (A Cabinetmaker's Notebook) on the redwood coast of California. After he completed his study at the Krenov School Les gave a talk about his transition from business executive to woodworker. The story explained that essentially, he became a woodworker because he liked the clothes (that he saw woodworkers wearing.) Les also has a good sense of humor.

This was a great video. I love hearing how people got into woodworking.

Wow!!! So cool! Thanks Mighty Matt

Great video!

I have a very demanding full-time job that consumes about 65 to 70 hours of my time every week. But i still make time every day to get in my little 8' by 12' wood shop. After a long day of farm work, woodworking is my wind down for the day. When i get in my shop and get started everything else from the day be it good or bad is just pushed aside and I go into my own little world. Its my biggest stress relief and I've used it to help me stay sober for the last 5 years. The money i would be spending on my addiction, i save up and spend on my woodworking tools.

Great Video Matt!

Matt B was so cool when I got to meet him. Definitely glad that I met him!

I kept seeing Jeff. I wish I said hi to him

im glad i wasnt there. i would have given you the most convoluted answers imaginable LOL

After some contemplation, I think my favorite part of woodworking is making new mistakes. “If you never make a mistake it means you never do anything.”

I wish you had asked bow they got started. Also, did they buy new larger tools or bought used tooks(tabke saw, drill press, etc.)

I kept seeing Jeff. I wish I said hi to him.
