    My name is Wesley Aring and I am a 20 year old woodworker. I have been woodworking for just over 3 years now.
    I enjoy sharing what I’m up to in the shop. I especially enjoy making furniture and learning about different joinery. I do lots of shop projects too!
    Have a project you would like to see me make?? Let me know in the comments below!!

    Was looking for inspiration for a dresser and stumbled upon your video. A couple minutes in and I was sayin “please be a Californian, because I could totally be friends with this guy.” I came into this hobby swinging and haven’t stopped yet! This build was a knockout! Your shop is looking amazing, and your video skills are legit too! Great work!!

    This is like seeing myself in the future. You are doing exactly what I'm working towards. I think you may be younger than me though haha. But still. I'm obsessed with the craft and ive been pushing so hard to learn and grow within it. I recently got a camera and a bigger space and I'm gonna jump in to the UA-cam world. Youre so good man! An inspiration to me. BEAUTIFUL work.

  • @jilliancarpenter399

    I just started woodworking & watching your videos is a huge motivation for me to try new techniques & keep at it. My favorite part was watching you assemble the drawers. Those joints are goals! The dresser turned out beautiful

    Wesley that was a great project showing your skills as a furniture maker. Well done. As it happens I want to build a router table soon. Any chance you could put it on the priority list? If you could talk us through your design first that would be useful. Regards Col.

  • @chrishoesing5455
    @chrishoesing5455 4 місяці тому

    Nice vid. Beautiful piece as well. Can I offer one minor piece of advice? When pushing wide boards through the tablesaw you should be pushing in the center or if anything slightly closer to the blade side of the width, not on the fence side. It can cause kickbacks to push on the fence side. I see you have a riving knife on your saw, which should prevent this issue anyhow, but it's still not a good habit. I'm not trying to be a jerk, just some friendly advice.
    Edit: I should have waited to comment until I finished the video. That isn't just a beautiful piece, it's an heirloom quality, hand crafted work of art... There, I feel better.

    @jonathanpopp3529 4 роки тому

    Impressive! I would hate to see how many hours you put into the build but the end result I am sure makes it worth it. Curious as to what or how you got your parents to give up the full garage for you? Did you bribe them with college grades ? Only kidding... I bet they are proud and impressed with the dedication you have given to your woodworking. If you are putting this kind of effort into your college classes then I am sure you will be top of your class. Stay safe, stay jolly!

    Fantastic work, my friend...but please take the time to build a jig for cutting those tapers in the ends of the legs. Holding that piece vertically as you push it through the blade is just too dangerous.
