I think one of the things sharing the price does is keep you from getting a bunch of people trying to commission a table from you without understanding the costs involved. That’s how I’ve always interpreted you listing your prices. You do beautiful work, made even more difficult/time consuming by creating videos about it. If you didn’t mention how much these cost, I think you would end up buried in messages from people hoping to get one of your tables for $500-$2,000 or so, which just isn’t possible with the quality of materials you use, and how much effort you put into all of them.
Ya, putting my prices up front on my website really helped with that too. I can’t believe when people don’t show prices, just invites unrealistic buyers.
So true. It will save a TON of time working out quotes for people who have no idea that most of these pieces are well out of their price range.
If craftsmanship had no value, their would be no need for craftsmen. Otherwise, we'd all be hobbyists.
@@homerepairguy1 But he,s not a craftsman..A craftsman woodworker like my uncle would of never made a table with wet wood .
It also brings the people that will hate on something for being expensive out of the woodwork. Pun intended
Big fan of Black Pail here, just wanted to say you're an absolute legend for shipping the table worldwide.

Hi this is Richard from England, but now NZ for the last 35 years.
I'm 70 years old and should have chosen cabinet and working with wood my lifes job.
But I didn't, so now I love to watch guys like you exhibit their work here on UA-cam!
I had put in a search for Walnut and this video got my attention.
The big table is just stunning, but for me the give away table took my breath away.
It was the surface finish of the top; the colour, the patination and the finish, just WOW.
I have a custom made muzzle loading, black powder percustion 12ga shotgun with
a stunning black walnut stock. I often sit and just look at the wood.
I was so sad to find out I had missed the competition for your table give away.
I love your work, mistakes and all............Thank You.
I love walnut, particularly black walnut. We had a volunteer black walnut in our back yard, and since it was an unplanned plant it was in an unplanned place, so this tree became an over 100-year-old behemoth, and the neighbors beside and behind hated it. All the squirrels in the neighborhood absolutely loved it. The neighbors thought of the tree as a nuisance and it stretched out long branches over both of the other properties, and the squirrels kept planting more trees and dropping its leaves all over their roofs and yards. My son decided that he wanted to put a hot tub in and we had to get a slab poured to support it and that was a last straw for the neighbors so they demanded that in order to get their agreement for all of the work done they demanded that the heritage tree had to go. The city loved their heritage trees, even the messy ones so we had to get special permission to have it removed. After months of begging neighbors and the city we finally received the necessary permits to go ahead. The day that beautiful tree had to come out was a day of mourning for me, but the most interesting part of the removal was that the tree surgeon had notified local wood artisans that it was going to be removed. There were several who responded so our family, a few neighbors and a couple of interested parties were there to observe the removal of that one tree. I've told you all of this just to say that that one trunk that was about six feet in diameter and then some had some folks wishing for a grandstand to watch the process. It had some of the most beautiful patterns in it, and it was used to make at least one very special dining table and a few other special pieces of furniture. I cried all through the process.
Mentioning prices is actually VERY useful for people wanting to start their own business and don't know what's normal, or what (some) people are willing to pay.
You're making custom (or 'bespoke') tables. I feel it's quite motivational to hear what is possible, pricing wise.
(Because high end clients definitely won't be the first that come knocking)
And it’s good for clients as well. I know I don’t need to bother asking him, for instance.
To me, if you can execute a job like this, considering the work involved you can't be charging $500, The COGS on this job was close to $5000 and that is out of pocket, not considering labor or any capital expenditures needed to do the work. I don't know if what he charges even covers the actual cost for him because the video revenue and other things are really what make the "business" work.
I don't know the hours put in, but he mentions directly about 12h for two discrete processes, nothing on sanding, nothing on making the cuts etc.
I wouldn't expect someone of his skill level at crafting these objects to charge $10/hr, I make give or take $55/hr at my job. I would consider what he does more skilled than what I do. And you have all the other bits and pieces of running a business, (youtube aside) that shop was not cheap to outfit, there are no rubbish tools, or bargain basement shit in these vids, the kit is uniformly top flight, professional gear.
I was a press photographer in a past life, and when I was working for real at it (5+ days a week etc), I had almost $30,000 of gear in my bags, and that job paid poorly.
His prices are commensurate with his skills and the costs he incurs to be able to offer work like he does, the fact he films it allows him to do less work, and lets him be less dependent on "selling" a piece for success.
There is another guy that does vids that does inlay work and he did a 2h video about the costs of his work/what he charged, and homeboy was making $12/hr for the most part as he calculated it for (to me) pretty mastercraftsman level work (each piece was maybe 40h work) and he observed he was not charging enough, but didn't feel confident he could charge more, which is where the video revenues can come in, which from what I can tell they have for Cam.
@@gilbatzri Back in "the day" I was a video photographer for CBS locally here in town. The cost of the cameras I use would have bankrupted me if I had to have used my own equipment. That was back in the Beta time and the editing area was another fortune. Thank God for the cameras now and the cameras in cell phones. If used right one can get very good work out of a cell phone.
To be honest, he could probablty be getting a lot more for it, but that usually involves having someone on staff whos all about getting the high rollers in. A friend of mine was a cabnitmaker who made filthy cash, but his company had a marketing girl who really had a knack for getting those corporate boardroom table orders for the big end of town (Though the most expensive table I ever saw was over $100K in a mining company boardroom, and that definately wasnt him).
Actually shit. -----> Corporate boardroom tables. Thats the magic hint. That and kitchen refits for rich folks (If you get your reputation up, $50K+ per kitchen for the full cabinets and benches is not unheard of)
@@shayneoneill1506 Yeah, what you need for high rollers is someone with connections to the right type of businesses (who can speak their proverbial language) - they'll just write those expenses off on their taxes.
And to raise prices, it's always easier to have someone do it on your behalf.. (a manager / hustler of sorts) who knows what other people are charging.. who knows what the company can probably cough up.
Basically, having anyone representable do that for you can raise your hourly price (and thus the total amount) by about 35% at least.
(if only because they understand you have staff to pay as well)
As a designer I made €70 an hour (max I ever made).
But when - say - Nike comes calling you for a new website, you better charge $100K...
(not the 10K 'that already feels like you're scamming them'.)
That's how 'they know you're a serious business' (which is somewhat counter-intuitive)
As an example, I know the University of Amsterdam has paid about $8M for their web infrastructure so far... and it's SHIT.
5 different websites (for each new one, they just get a new domain or subdomain... students have 2 student ID numbers for some reason (1 actual one, and 1 for the class schedules or something)... NOTHING works as well as it should on mobile (which is the main internet browsing device for young people).. and yet... 8 million, and they keep coming back to 'em.
It's all about who you blow... err... know. (:
Walnut. I was wrong too, I thought this aluminium sheet will look ridiculously out of place and was repeating to myself "god I hope he spoke some reason into the client."
Turned out just absolutely magnificent. One of the best tables I've ever seen.
I think the 1" thickness is what makes it work.
Even though your type of content isn't what I usually watch, I can't stop. There is always interesthing to watch somebody doing they craft on this level
I prefer the walnut table
Both tables are stunning, but I have to say that the aluminium shelf really is a positive feature that helps provide a pleasant contrast to the wood. I see a lot of makers using black filler in their wood to fill holes, which always looks great, and I think that the black shelf follows in that style very well.
A moment before you commented on the price issue, I was just thinking to myself how much I appreciate you sharing the prices. As a boutique woodworker myself, It is very helpful to understand market prices. Probably the hardest part of the job is pricing, and often justifying the prices, as very often we ourselves could not afford our own work.
By the way, do you have a video out with a little more info about you microtopping?
This!
Way overpricedl
@@alexk81843 it may be over priced for you but you are not the market. It's for people who own million-dollar homes.
I worked with custom dyeing/ color matching silk fabric for years. I couldn't afford my work either, at the proper retail prices. But as a beginner hobbyist, (merely donating my labor, for fun) it was unfair to undercut prices charged by people who needed to make a living.
When my turn came around, and I needed "income " I think the good Karma returned to me, as my items sold well for the "making a living " prices.
Dude, i like the fact that you include the prices. Honestly VERY FEW people ever do and many of us find it interesting. So thanks for telling us what you charge sometimes. Honestly its somewhat inspiring me to maybe take my woodworking to the next level.
My father was a builder of small boats and made it a point to bring me up appreciating the beauty of fine woods. As I became a guitar player, I remembered his teaching and, over the years, acquired a small collection of guitars and a few ukuleles made from master cuts of Brazilian, Koa, Cocobolo, Adirondack Spruce, etc. In addition to looking beautiful, those woods must be "tuned" in order to produce the best tones possible. A master luthier was once asked how he built guitars and he responded, "I find a beautiful piece of wood and cut away everything that's not a guitar." Keep up the good work. You are truly a master craftsman!
I love how much your channel and more than that your skills in your craft have evolved and improved so much over time. Keep it up
The powder coated aluminum and figured walnut is.. incredible honestly. Just wow.
What is the point of aluminum here? When 100% coverage is applied, what is underneath is irrelevant. Could be aluminum, MDF, epoxy block, stone, whatever. When and expensive material is used, it should be shown. Pay extra money for a thick aluminum that will look like basic kitchen top in the end, is a waste IMHO. I do not say the table looks fantastic, I do not see the point of aluminum in the design here. No visual (100% covered by paint) and no structural need for 1" aluminum.
It’s a breath of fresh air that you don’t leave any mysteries in the process. It’s great to know how much these commissions cost!
Fantastic channel and content man. I could never cope with the added workload of filming and narrating my projects - just doing the work is hard enough, so massive respect there.
I watch these videos with my 9 year old daughter and she enjoys your content so much- after seeing this video, she wanted me to comment and tell you she LOVES this project. Keep crushing it!
This phrase comes to my mind every single time I watch your videos. “A novice practices until he gets it right, a master practices until he can’t get it wrong” and watching you over the last couple years. You are definitely getting to the point of not getting it wrong. I appreciate the time you take to provide us with these videos!
That's why I'm stuck at novice. The moment I get a song right on my guitar, "On to the next challenge!!" Stellar quote
Great video I liked both tables they are some really beautiful pieces
Fridays are always better with a new video from Blackpail Studio. This was a REALLY fun one to watch!
😂😂
Both tables are beautiful…having said that…the walnut table is simply a beast and amazing! The entire process is amazing and the amount of detail of your work is remarkable! Can’t wait for the next big project!
I loved the wallnut table! I just love the dark wood! I've always loved these kinds of tables and I admire all the work that you put into each and every one and right at the second I thought "I wonder how much it would cost?" You mentioned the price! So mentioning prices is indeed extremely useful in my eyes!
That black powdercoated shelf turned out to be a great idea. It really adds contrast and makes the wood pop. I think if it was made from the same wood, none of the wood would look nearly as impressive.
I really love the amount of contrast the black powder coat gave to the walnut, gave it so much more character! It's not too much or not enough contrast, it's just the right amount! Beautiful pieces as usual, I would say between the two, my favorite is definitely the walnut! I'm a sucker for dark/black looking furniture.
@@lisashiplett7659 I flag the user for scam, maybe if you do too, it will be faster for youtube to ban them.
Your work is amazing but your humor is what keeps me coming back and watching all your new stuff. By far the best woodworking channel on UA-cam!
The walnut table is absolutely stunning! Great job!
The contrasting black shelf against the exquisite walnut looks absolutely amazing, and I love the creative attachment system as well.
Totally agree, that's a beautiful table.
Walnut table with the aluminium shelf looks amazing; the contrast between the sleek black metal slab and the beautiful wood patterning is just jaw dropping, hope you do more furniture like this sometime in the future.
Also still looking forward to your mammoth tusk renovation!
I think walnut is better than maple majorly because of aluminium shelf
Walnut, I love the darker wood. Letting people know what your work is worth is not a bad look. I love it. Artist should be paid what they are worth and future artists need to know that it's both a profitable way to support yourself and that they are perfectly justified in asking for what their work is worth. The only wood working I do is to widdle spoons. I just don't have the space for more but I'm inspired! My Dad took down a purple plum tree this spring and I have a nice chuck I'll start on tomorrow. Thank you.
OMG both the walnut and the mappa tables are just GORGEOUS. I would never have thought that aluminum shelf would look good but it's beautiful.
Personally, I appreciate the fact that you include the costs and final price of each piece. I'm always curious about that stuff, and having the whole picture just kind of completes the experience for each video. Also, it adds to the level of transparency that myself, and I'm confident many others, have come to really respect you for. I'm only 39 and unfortunately, disabled from an on duty injury when I was a Paramedic. Woodworking is an absolute passion of mine.... that realistically I will never be able to enjoy again. In watching you, I get to scratch that itch... and I'd like to think that if things were different.... I would operate my business with a similar work ethic and level of honesty that you show in your content. Big fan, and much respect my friend.
Walnut, the wood grain is insanely beautiful and the contrast with aluminum turned out great! One of your best projects to date.
Walnut
And Scott was rooting for the fail 💯. Aluminum looks way better then I thought it would.
Both tables are as stunning as I've ever seen!! BEAUTIFUL WORK!!
That aluminum sets of the walnut and highlights the wood even more. You are one of my favorite woodworkers to watch and learn from. I'm saving up for you course and can't wait. Thank you so much for what you do
Definitely love the powder coated aluminium, at first I thought the customer wanted to leave the metallic finish, but the matte black just works
That walnut table turned out amazing. I also really appreciate how every time you mention how some joke is going to irritate X group, you then proceed to absolutely hammer that joke home. It warms my heart
I am totally stunned by BOTH tables! Can't decide on one!
I'm glad you tell your prices and the costs of wood. It lets me know how much a slab is worth, as well as lets me know how in the world you could do such a big project given the price of the wood.
I'm not much of a wood worker but I love watching your videos. I love seeing the quality of work you put out.
When you share the prices, I don't think it's bragging. Imo it's showing us what your creativity, woodworking skills, and talent are worth. I love all the videos I've seen, so much talent, and beautiful wood.
Wow. Both beautiful. Love the contrast.
This is the 1st video I have watched about woodworking and I am utterly impressed. As far as the walnut wood vs. the other one, I think they are both beautiful in their own right.
I love that walnut table. The aluminium shelf really works well with the wood. And those little "cheats" you used to keep it as big as possible? Actually beautifully executed.
Hey Cam, I love that you share the prices and costs. As a maker myself, It’s always one of the first things I wonder about in any maker video. I’m always surprised when people are hesitant to share this. Thanks, love your videos.
right?? I think talking about money in general & giving it transparency can only be good for everybody! In his example, people who also do woodworking can get a sense of how much their work might be worth. Customers can get an idea how much they'd have to pay for smth like this. It's the same as talking about wages, it can only be good for people to get exploited less and help people orient themselves faster.
I mean, talking about prices, wages etc _can_ be bragging but only if the person is, you know, bragging. ..There's a certain mocking, condescending or overly-enthusiastic way about that that makes is bragging. Merely stating details (that are important and interesting) is not.
They're hesitant because they don't want the clients to discover just how much more they paid for the finished product over the cost of producing it... And that's no different from a single piece artist or a major auto manufacturer.
i agree. its just people complaining about nothing, as we all do sometimes
Walnut looks fantastic and the finish product is just amazing!
The walnut with aluminum shelf is absolutely stunning. Bravo!
I absolutely love the Walnut table! My dad used to plant black walnut trees all the time because he love the wood so much. Honestly, people have no idea how many hours, days, weeks, and sometimes months it takes to make something like this. Listing the price speaks quality. That is the difference between a true carpenter and a hobbyist. No comparison! Another beautiful creation!
Hello Lenella, I see that you have received the same Message as me. I don't know why I am so hesitant, but is this legit?
Walnut, both are really beautiful. Again I'm absolutely amazed by your talent and dedication to the craft. Your honesty and transparency are always highly appreciated.
I'm a newbie to your channel. I love everything about woodworking. Just wish I could do it. My ex-husband was God at making things, I told him to let me design, and he for him make them. He couldn't see the vision. So I look at all the videos sometimes nonstop because the wood is so gorgeous and the design is out of this world. Keep up the good work ❤❤❤❤
I love the way the walnut table looks. Amazing job well done.
You are an artist. As an artist myself no matter how good a painting is to everyone else, I know every flaw and how I would do it different in the future. I also know other people do not see the flaws.
Wouldn't call him an artist. A very good craftsman but no artist. He spends half his time digging rot and filling it in with poxy.
Your attention to detail is insane. Like drilling the set screw detents off center is next level. Your pricing is spot on for the craftsmanship you deliver.
I honestly think its hilarious when you get those elitists in the comments who gatekeep about who can be a craftsman because they aren't sculpting with the literal hands of god, If you make a mistake I guess you're not a craftsman, yet they give little to no indication of what they do wrong, or what they could improve. Then there are comments like these that go over land marks of detail and hallmarks of skill, and proove that the 2 percent of haters, are just haters, not the demigods they portray themselves as.
To watch a craftsman do his work is sure a great outcome. This reminds me of a oak root that was made into a table. Your table was a masterpiece. Thank You and the camera person.
WOW ... just WOW .. for sure the big table looks amazing.
Mappa. Your videos are entertaining and educational. The wood and finished products are beautiful. I would enjoy seeing more pictures of the finished tables. As in Artistic attention to angles and lighting. I would also enjoy seeing more photos of your tables in the spaces where your customers use them. Pictures of the whole space where your tables sit will show how well the aesthetics of your work goes with the existing decor.
Mappa. I'm really interested in the black steel channels to keep the top flat. Where did you purchase those? Thanks Gary
Bro the amount of time and effort that goes into, not only the finished product but the energy editing the videos... that's a lot of pride and I don't think posting the price is a bad thing at all.
Love the Walnut! Wow, you do amazing work. I learn so much from you and enjoy every one of your videos! Thanks so much!
Such beautiful craftsmanship and quite entertaining to listen to as well!
Sharing the prices is definitely a good thing! I’m to a point where if prices aren’t listed somewhere, I won’t even inquire. Partially because I don’t want to waste someone’s time with an inquiry if I don’t know that it’s in my budget and partially because so many sketchy business operate on the foundation of never sharing prices so I’m somewhat distrustful of any business owner who wants customers / clients but acts secretive about costs.
"No prices displayed" would discourage me, as a buyer. Especially for an obviously high ticket item. I would assume I couldn't afford, even though I might make an investment decision, and purchase. I did this in 2003. I'm still using the item in 2023. It's a handmade leather purse/small shoulder bag, made by a well-known artisan. It's well made and still holding up, despite 20 years of hard daily usage. Considering all the inferior bags I would have purchased and discarded, the initial investment actually saved money by year five! Quality! These tables can last for generations.
Dammit man! That is awesome! I love the look of both tables, normally I like the darkness in the walnut but the character in the lighter wood is just amazing.
You are an artist in the wood shop!
Really liked the contrasting black aluminum. The whole design is really very aesthetically pleasing.
The wallnut looks cool… love the alu shelf. Thanks for taking us on the artistic journey
2 things:
Absolutely incredible. I was very skeptical about the aluminum shelf underneath, thought maybe for once you had gone too far. But my God, it is absolutely stunning.
I absolutely love the fact that you talk about the price of things. You are one of the very few people that do this, and it is 1 of the things that helps you stand out. For people thinking about getting into this type of furniture building, it gives a good idea of material Is cost, as well, how much your skill set is worth. Thank you for doing this.
I love that pretty much every one of your builds has a story. There's drama, highs and lows plus the ever present and ready, unexpected..
As a bathroom design and installation guy I feel your pain and know that none of my own projects are impervious to the will of the wind and tides. You, like all who love to create persevere and see every problem as a new learning experience ( eventually 😆 ) and just figure it out. There's no manual for these moments haha.
Love your work and the stories that hide in the grain of each piece.
holy crap, that walnut table is freaking beautiful!!! actual art
very glad you listened to the customer too
As an actual woodworker, (specializing in desks and tables) n3nano actually does a lot better than my other finishes like minwax, it does stay glossier and it’s easier to wipe stains off, so keep up the great work!
Team Walnut! Cam I just wanna let you know your videos help me relax after a long day, watching you use your magic to turn wood into excellence and your smooth calming voice is just something i absolutely love, keep it up!
The walnut table looks amazing. The black makes the table really stand out and the way it sits with the legs is very sleek. Love the dry humor and seeing your creations come to life. Thank you for sharing!
Cam has a way with words! ✌️
First time watching this craftsman but I can tell he is a very honest and straight shooting fella.
They’re both amazing. I like the walnut just a bit more! Incredible work. Appreciate the honesty so much.
Walnut. That table is absolutely stunning! The figure in the wood is extraordinary. Your attention to detail is inspiring.
I enjoyed this walnut table way more, the darker colour is much more refined, but I’m surprised you took up the challenge of working with aluminium! It’s awesome to see you able to branch out your skills even if bit by bit. I hope that finishing class is free for much longer, and that the nano finishing takes off!
Super happy for the look and the hard work you put in. It is awesome we get to participate in your thought process.
I appreciate you adding the price of tables because it shows me how valuable your work is. Btw I’ve watching your videos for the pass couple days and admire your work I even subscribed to the wood finishing class you have. I’m a nursing student so watching your videos and doing wood working diy projects are very much a distraction from the stressors of school. Actually makes me want to make my own table myself. Oh btw I also like how you shoutout on your page other subscribers too such as those with smaller channels. It gives them a chance to come up. Anyways good job. P.s I like the subtle nonchalant humor. 😂
So my husband and I stumbled upon your videos just about a week or so ago. Since then we have watched you every day. Glad we have a backlog of videos to watch! Just thought you would get a smile knowing an odd couple from Utah watches you every night to just wind down our day! You are a master in both woodworking and sarcasm and we love it! Thanks for putting in the hard work so we can just sit and watch it.
I'm hooked now after husband been watching so we do the same..in upper north Island of NZ.
Walnut table is amazing. I love the vulnerability and flexibility you show in each project; it's really the best part of the channel. You show the good, the bad, and as always, the process only realizes the natural beauty of the wood itself while the design compliments and showcases the craftsmanship.
@@lisashiplett7659 Thanks, very aware already.
I love that you put in the prices of both the final piece and the cost of materials as it's very helpful what to expect taking on a project of this type. Thank you.
Walnut is one of my favorite woods! That table is absolutely gorgeous! The little table is very pretty, but 5hat combination of the walnut and the steel is truly gorgeous!
It is only a failure if you fail to learn the lesson. Mistakes are only opportunities to learn. Beautiful work!
Both tables are absolutely beautiful and awesome. I do really like how the aluminum shelf idea worked out. What I really like about your videos is that you cover everything as if all of us were standing in your shop with you and hearing all of the pains takingly thought processes you go through to get the effects your customers desire. Awesome job!
Walnut,Walnut,Walnut it’s Beautiful!!!!
Both tables are absolutely gorgeous! Outstanding work!
I thought the walnut was good, both tables shined but that aluminum was pretty unique.
😊 Always love the content and the bad jokes. Your work inspires me to make tables myself, which my kids benefit from. It’s great to have a family made furniture that can be passed down.
Walnut, and that is a beautiful table!
Also, I personally appreciate the prices because it's easy to undersell, but knowing what these kinds of projects are really worth can be really helpful pricing out work.
So true. It helps and yet I still manage to under price my builds.
Long time fan. Love the Mappa more. But the walnut is beautiful.
Beautiful table, before I started losing the use of my hands I did wood carving and that black walnut with the aluminum shelf is great. I also did leather craving, taught art and now do photography mostly wildlife. I really enjoy watching your videos and learning even though I will not be able to build a table like you love watching you do it.
I would be happy to have either of these tables. Stunning.
I love the way the walnut table looks. I wasn’t sure about the aluminum shelf that ended up being powder coated black, but it looks fantastic. Had it not been powder coated black I think it would have looked awful. As usual great video, and thanks for all of the information while doing the build. It’s very informative.
Untreated aluminum would have oxidized over time and would have totally spoiled the table.
Anodized in black maybe would look slightly lighter, but would be more wear resistant and probably would look nicer. Not many places can anodize such a large aluminum piece though...
Hey, Cam, thanks for the free tutorial! Solid move. Very clear and informative. I appreciate that there is no ridiculous background music blasting 👌
Love your work and black walnut has some of the best colors when it's sealed clear
I think the walnut is the #1. It's just beautiful!! Tons of hard work and your expertise. I love it!!
I can’t decide which table I like better! Ahhh!!!! They both have their own beauty and charming character! Love this channel!
Powder coated aluminum and walnut. I’m completely impressed by your work and your honesty. Thank you for sharing. I absolutely love your work.
Wow! Beautiful results.
The Aluminum makes the table beautiful. Kudos to the owner for a great idea! Perhaps you should incorporate it in your designs in the future...it's that good! Also, love the new finish. It shines rather nicely.
I don't remember the last time I did anything around wood apart from sawing off a few branches but I found this channel a few weeks back and today I finished watching pretty much every video. Love your skill, dedication, and especially your unique sense of humor, awesome channel!
It's official...BINGE-WORTHY content.
I like that you give the prices. It helps all us guys that don't know what to charge a person.
Been watching for a while and always in amazement. Please keep doing everything that you do . This table turned out phenomenal .
I'm a former basket weaver and owned a factory in New Hampshire. I love watching you bend wood to your will.
I love every bit of every video produced here. The information, the filming quality and the raw talent expressed are un matched. Keep it up!
That Bastogne Walnut is the bomb. You are a master. Your client is fortunate.
Absolutely stunning design and I love the look of the wood grain and the finish
I love both but the walnut table with the aluminum shelf is absolutely gorgeous!! I always enjoy watching your videos and seeing a slab come to life! Can't wait for the next project and video!
