    I don't think that you needed to apologize for this video. I liked it. We all have to start somewhere, and you have now shown us how much you have improved with your skills, and your videos. The ONLY complaint I have about this video is that there were no CATS. I've always loved your sense of humor, and today you really did yourself proud!

    Its good from time to time to look over one's shoulder, because that way one realises the growth that's taken place.
    Never knock your beginnings - how many of us have never even started?! Well done 🎉

    I fondly remember the alley and the samurai. I was looking for him, but this must pre-date him. It has been a perfect delight to watch you develop your fantastic design and production style. I was so happy to see you buy your home and create your dream workshop. It has been a wonderful adventure. Thank you for sharing it with us. Still tuning in from Littleton Colorado.

    I think it’s easy for us to look back at our work and be overcritical. You’ve come a long way because your skill-craft has improved through what you learned from these early sessions. We all start off a little clunky at whatever skill we’re working at, but through a process of learning from what works and what doesn’t we improve. The good news is that you are really good at your skill-craft now; both videography and woodworking. I must say, while it might not be what you would do now, even then you had great vision of what a pice of furniture could become. Thank you for sharing this early video. It takes courage to look back at what we consider not so good and share it with other people…especially when it can open us up to criticism from others.😊

    Hi Jay. I have been watching you from the very beginning. You and Barry (Mad City Modern) popped into my feed and it was refreshing to see newbies getting started on a new journey. It has been fantastic watching you find your way and grow. Kudos to you my friend. Keep up the fantastic work.

  • @lateciamadethis
    @lateciamadethis 10 місяців тому +2

    I think the desk looks great. It isn’t the type of item or technique that future you would choose today, but past you worked with the tools and techniques at your disposal at that time. You have learned so much since then. You’ve grown and that’s what we are here for.

  • @joygrove5570
    @joygrove5570 10 місяців тому +5

    You've come such a long way! And there's nothing to be embarrassed about - you did create a very nice piece of furniture, and yes, it does have a spacey, unique look to it 🙃 Obviously, it did please someone. And a plus to showing us this video - actually two plusses - you can film whatever you're doing anywhere (and you can always find a place to do the things your heart desires 😉) aaand I'm sure you're helping someone avoid some of the mistakes you made, both with your "creation" and your filming.
    I haven't watched one of your videos yet that had me going "yeah yeah yeah, just get on with it". Actually, it's you and Mayfield's stuff that I genuinely look forward to. So, keep up the good work! ❤

    Jay, what a trip down memory lane! You were in that house, using your alley, when I first discovered your channel. I remember your comments about working full-time in health care. You've truly come a long way, and you're one of only 3 DIY furniture channels I regularly watch. Thank you for this retrospective, and I'm looking forward to more of your good work! Cheers from Oklahoma!!!

    OMGosh! That was fun! Even in the very beginning you were a visionary Redesigner. What you created in that desk was very attractive. No wonder you had no problems selling it. I thought your printed screen comments were so funny. And, of course your voice over was too. Going back in time is a really good thing to do, because you realize how far you've come in a short period in time.

    Don't be so hard on yourself, everyone has to start somewhere and the desk looks good (with the possible exception of the gold overspray).

You've gained so much knowledge and experience since, I'm always impressed with your finished work.

    I'm sure every last UA-camr has a video or two that never sees the light of day. Don't be so hard on yourself! You have learnt on the job, with an audience in tow. I remember the 1st video I watched you had less than 1000 subscribers and now you have 121 thousand. Many UA-camrs get nowhere near that level of support even with an interesting channel. I can honestly say that almost without exception I have loved the end result of your work.

    You have improved so much. I am new to your channel. I have only been a subscriber for a few weeks. After I joined, I went back and watched all of your old videos. Your skill set has come a long way in just a couple of years. Celibrate your gained knowledge.🎉

    OK, I had a smile on my face for the entire video! I think your comments were funnier than your processes. Love your channel and thanks for sharing that it was awesome.

    I couldn’t even do as well as you did in your first video 😂 We’re always most critical of ourselves; I don’t think it’s that bad! But your newer videos improve all the time. ☺️ Growth! 👏🏽
