Your work is beyond next level. It is what craftsmanship is all about. People (like me) tried there entire career to achieve this. I can make a beautiful kitchen blindfolded, but to create a piece of art with perfect “flow” I cannot do. So watching a young artist like you is not only refreshing for this 64 year old man but mesmerizing. Please don’t ever change your style of content. It is beautiful and this old guy loves it. You are blessed with talent beyond belief.
Thanks so much Steve! Means a lot.
This is not a design that speaks to me personally, but the sheer amount of work, the attention to detail and the ingenuity of the process are staggering. Great job ❤
I agree that it is not a design that I would choose, but I love seeing the INCREDIBLE artistry and I love the risk taking!
That design doesn’t speak to anyone. Taste is not subjective. There’s mathematically definable beauty - certain proportions etc - and sawyer isn’t aware of those things so he he works really hard to make stuff that is not objectively beautiful.
easily, one of the best furniture makers, and content creators of my time.
“Design is difficult because it’s hard to teach someone how to express themselves”. Words of wisdom…think I’m going to post that one in my shop! Kudos Nick👏🏻👏🏻!
This was one of the best table builds I have ever seen 👍
SO GREAT to see your work again!!
Great job of talking about design generally and your own design aesthetic and influence in particular. Never heard anything like it on UA-cam before. It made me appreciate your design(s) more. Thank you.
You are an absolute joy to watch. From your crazy amount of talent, to your phenomenal video editing skills, capped off by your near ASMR level of voiceover/commentary. Love all your stuff. Please keep doing what you do. 👏
Reminds me of how water flows, you definitely have the flow in the design. Beautiful piece!
Thank god for a true craftsman on UA-cam. Your not trying to peddle me your Temu affiliate link or doing Tik Tok trends like some others. Some of these “woodworking” UA-cam channels do everything besides woodwork and couldn’t make a cutting board without pocket holes and some wood filler. So thank you! This piece is beautiful, some of the best craftsmanship I’ve ever seen.
You’ve officially clocked woodworking! Perfection!
Genius! Not only your sublime woodworking but your mesmerising voice over. Your videos are ………an Experience!
Great use of the term curvilinear. Respect,
It is really cool to listen to physiology during this artwork.
Seeing that sunburst with a fresh coat of shellac on it gave me a very much needed dopamine hit. Thank you so much for that as well as the great content and furniture you produce
Congratulations on being asked to teach!! It's very cool that you can teach and help a wave of woodworkers on thinking outside the box. Excellent video!!!!
Truly incredible design and execution on this project! Your meticulous attention to detail and ever evolving ideas are so inspiring, thank you for sharing your work with all of us!
I am so happy for you and your continued growth and success. Without a doubt you are one of the more inspirational woodworkers out here. I love the idea of your course! As I am pushing closer to my 6th decade of life, I am still working at finding my own style. For myself, I will do what makes me happy, and hope to bring that to customers whether it be a "pig board" for a super sweet lady who needed a replacement, or the tea box presented to an aunt today for her 80th birthday. Even the sadness of making urns for my sisters ashes so that her children and our mother could all have part of her with them, it brought great joy to my sister as she neared her end with us. I long to find my "niche", and that journey may never end (I hope).
Watching you work, your passion... it is what makes youtube worthwhile for me.
I've been woodworking for 6 years now and I'm stuck in that awkward stage between knowing the fundamentals and wanting to level up but without any inspiration. This is the perfect content for me. I really appreciate how you show your techniques as well as your jigs, admittedly I am terrible about taking the time to design the jigs I need to make my work more efficient. I finally have a direction to work toward and for that I will happily subscribe. This is the kind of content that is rare on yt
Inspiration is everywhere. Just have learn to translate it.
Your designs -
They just keep getting better!!
INCREDIBLE!!!
Thank you very much!
gorgeous work!!! there are lots of woodworkers on youtube, but not many of them are artists. its wild how these videos can inspire so much emotion.
congrats on being recognized for your amazing work.
you inspire.
Hey thanks so much!
Your work transcends WOW! Thanks for sharing.
Your furniture’s beautiful Nick, but I love how thoughtful your videos are.
Incredible! Amazing! Absolutely beautiful! I’m running out of additives… ♥️♥️♥️
I , by the way, would call it a semicolon. That is after all what a with a dot at the end is. 😉 Can I get a desktop version? Like maybe a jewelry box size? 😬
We all like woodworking. But we can’t all be this good. A beautiful outdoor table is where I’m at, watching you almost exhausts my ambitions. Great work brother.
I remember looking for this channel a couple months ago thinking I hadn’t seen any videos in a while. Then I thought “I hope he hasn’t stopped making content”. Little did I know he was spending that time working on an absolute masterpiece! The wait was 100% worth it!
What an absolute joy to watch & listen to the creation of this masterpiece. The deep intelligence, skill and artistry behind the piece is incredible. Seeing you work, for me, is comparable to watching a ballet or visiting an art museum. I guess what I'm trying to say is that it feeds my soul. Bravo, sir!
Wow thanks so much! I really appreciate that
It's a work of art. Absolutely gorgeous, I'd be too afraid to use it. Well done.
Beautiful man, love your videos. keep em coming
Appreciate it man!
Holy smoke, you did it again. You have outdid yourself again. I can't wait to see the next one upper design. Awesome work.
As someone who is interested in woodworking as an amateur, it would not be an exaggeration to say that I was fascinated by it. I follow many channels on this subject, but your content has a special place for me. You are inspiring and educational. I'm also wondering how much you sold this work of art for 🤔
Wow! You are on another level I have ever witnessed. May God continue to bless you .
What a STUNNING piece of furniture we have seen develop right before our eyes. The workmanship is meticulous to say the very least & is a credit to not only your unique skill but your application to the task at hand. Thanks for sharing your skills with us. Cheers, Don from South Australia.
TY
My design work is on modeling, as what I wanted to create was, at first, simply better cities, urban environments.
My roue toward fulfillment of that went though a self design BA titled: Applied Philosophy & Planning.
Stunning piece, Nick! Really crazy beautiful work!!! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thank you. Truly. For inspiring us all to better at what we do. From design, to hands on, to using terminology to speak or understand what what we’d like to accomplish.
Absolutely stunning! Such a fun build to watch come to life and MAN your edits are on point.
this was awesome to watch for the last few months. thanks man!
Absolutley Amazing! Excellent craftsmanship - Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure! Appreciate you watching
You are the Tiger Woods of woodworking. You have changed the game and everybody else will have to raise theirs. I only wish you could post a daily video. Thank you for all of your insights.
Words fail me. The design, execution, cinematography, editing, and narrative are all top notch. What an inspiring project. Makes all my 100 hour projects seems rather amateurish.
I got hooked when you built that split top workbench with the curved lamination legs. Next level thought and execution. Awesome work Sawyer!
It’s great to hear about your success and the beginning of you branching out into teaching and doing special events. Your work is true art and you deserve all the success you can get. As you get more famous, don’t forget us. We still want to see your videos.
what a work of art! those doors look like they would be very satisfying to move and slide every chance you get. Love your videos! Can't wait to see what's next
Fantastic piece and video, love hearing your thought processes and the rational behind them.
Amazing build Nick. This was a fun series to follow. Thanks for sharing more than the build, but the ideas that went into it. As always, impressive and inspiring.
Unbelievable! Insane craftsmanship brother !
I hope to some day achieve your level of artistry and attention to detail! So meticulous! Well done!
This is pure art.
Not a big fan of the dot but it's better than splitting your foot in half if you bump against the sharp edge 😅
Otherwise the whole thing is absolutely perfect.
Man, are you a philosophic master woodworker or a master woodworking philosopher? Your videos are not just for watching/consuming, they demand full attention. Not to mention your awesome builds …great ! Many thanks 🙏 Guenther
You sir are a true craftsman and artist. Your attention to detail is unsurpassed. I would also argue your videos are "instructional" as I learn something from every one you put out. Look forward to being inspired by the next one. Great job bro!
Not going out on a limb when I say this is your best work yet, Nick. It is so freakin' awesome! Those continuous grain pattern tambour doors look so good!
Ahh thanks so much! Glad you like it!
I've got to admit, I wasn't sold on the design in the first couple episodes but by the end..... damn man.... that's incredible buddy. Amazing work
Your craftsmanship and design philosophy are immensely inspiring. Even though this particular style of furniture is not my thing, there's so much to take away from it. I love watching your videos. In fact I love them so much, I'm contemplating on tossing out my chamfer bits and get some extra round-over bits. Your concept of flow makes sense and I believe you can actually feel it when you walk into a room. Thanks!
I really enjoyed this video going over the design philosophy. Please do more like this to supplement your other videos!
You work continues to impress me, keep up the great work nick
Thanks Tanner!
Above and beyond as usual. Beautiful! As always, I patiently await for your next mind blowing crafted piece of art. You truly inspire! God bless
Yea I’m still working on tying my shoes. Awesome job.
You continue to provide some of the very best content on this platform. Design, execution, editing techniques ... outstanding! Really pleased to see that other areas of woodworking are catching on to your talents as well!
Dude, your skills, design, and video are reaching higher and higher levels every drop. I’m in awe.
The amount of wood is overwhelming!, too many things going on,it never ends,ideas piled one on top of the other,brake some lines ,use metal,Brass is a good candidate,the end tambor could be substitued for something more aery,some gravity defiant feture,incorporate carbon fiber,700 hours? ,I dont know how much you sold that piece for but at 20k it is under $30 an hour,I hope was a lot more than that,Cheers from Toronto Canada!
You do an awesome job of showing skill but also showing how you are learning as you go. Keep it up 😎
I'm always amazed at what you accomplish. Great job!
27 very enjoyable minutes! My patience usually lasts some minutes before my mind wanders away so this is serious credit.
Thank you for the captivating content and good video crafting.

Absolutely stunning Nick I’ve said it before but needs to be said again you are an amazing artist and craftsmen so amazing watching your videos such detail in everything you do. And in the end always such amazing beautiful peace of art. Keep up the amazing work
You’re too kind, Jim! Appreciate the support and glad you enjoyed the video!
Just amazing work! If it was Salem I’d turn you in for a witch/wizard Just unreal craftsmanship and otherworldly design! Enjoyed that. I may sell my tools after this lol
Genius! No other word will serve here. This is genius from design to execution.
Your conception is singular and unique as only personal design can be. But that is equaled by your attention to detail in your wood working ability. I very much appreciate your motivation is to figure out every technical challenge that wood and design require.
Beyond beautiful, you are truly an artist, if I can achieve something even half as beautiful/well made I would be over the moon! Magnificent work
Dude this was absaloutley stunning and a mean probably the nicest peice of furniture ive seen on yt! The whole thing flowed tohether so beautifully everything complimented each other and foremost was so beautiful. Congratulations on everything your achieving. Although you say in it at times was easy would like to see your take on what would actually be something easy like a normal coffee table or cutting board!😂 Also would love enroll on your course would help me so much but unless your gonna let me in a can't afford it right now although would be very helpful for me and my start up business. 👍🏴
Very inspiring and insightful! Cheers from Montana! 😎
I've enjoyed each episode of this build. Tons of detail and I enjoy you sharing your thought process on the build vs the standard UA-cam narration of "I cut, I mortise with domino, I glue, I table"
Really cool to see how your brain works to solve problems and what inspires you. I'm gonna add your course into my budget for 2024. Great work!
Hey I saw u in the Blacktail studio collaboration u did with him. Damn shame it didn’t work out. That would have been a beautiful table and I think that’s all the more reason u guys do something together again. I know I would love to see it. Thanks for everything…
Man this is soo sick, you nailed it!!! Great job
There are no words, literally no words to describe your work. ❤❤❤
Love it. I wonder what it would be like with a Hokusai woodcut reproduced on the interior canvas?
Wow! You do such fantastic work!
Thank you! Cheers!
Thank you for all your time and effort.
My pleasure! Thanks for watching
Nice! Where did u get your metal logo inlay?
Stunning. Absolutely stunning!
I don't know what the Guy Fieri "Flavortown" equivalent is in woodworking, but you certainly have taken us there sir. Remarkable work as always. You are pushing the boundaries of style and skill; keep it up!
As always- you are freaking amazing!
Absolutely amazing!! ❤❤❤
Nick had an idea for a top or even sides of one of your projects. A tesellation design in the top. I think that would look cool😊
Ohhh I’d love to nerd out on some marquetry tessellations one day.
Epic piece mate! Another eyegasm…
So, my wife watches all my woodworking channels with me and her favorites are Pedulla, Bourbon Moth, and you.
While watching this video (without any commentary from me), my wife just said, “This guy is on par with Pedulla.”
Let it sink in… okay bring it back.
She has a good eye, and I’ll end it there.
Can you provide a list of some of your most used planes? I new to wood working and the world of hand planes and block planes is immense. I really don’t know what to get. Would you be willing to make a block plane basics video?
What a beautiful piece! Inspirational problem solving to.
I do have a question about your location. I'm not asking for an address, but are you in Portland or Southwestern Oregon? The starting point of the truck looks close to where I grew up.
Good eye- Sure am! Just outside Portland in Milwaukie.
This was sensational. Well thought and executed. To the looks it may seams easy, but, the amount of work put in to it, is incredible.
Amazing work. Thank you for the video
Incredible design - Wow!
You sir are a design and woodworking technique masochist. I heard 800 hours in, but it wasn’t near completion at that point. How many hours do you have in this project? How do you calculate your time and knowledge into the prices you charge for commissions (not looking for you to disclose actual prices - just how you account for your time)? Unreal skill.
Gives me a Prince Rupert's drop vibe. You definitely have own your design esthetic which is increasingly difficult to achieve. 👍🏼
This is inspiring! Thank you.
This an amazing piece of design and build however with 1000 hours in and materials how large is the market for something like this and the return(😢$) worthwhile?
I love your work!!! I have one question. The vacuum system you're using, how? A giant plastic roll that you taped on ththe sides and put a nipple on, or is it made specifically for this application?
Hehe … nipple.
It’s an application specific 30mil heat welded polyurethane bag 👍 and thanks!
Absolutely stunning Nick. You keep upping the game. I'm almost afraid the next one will be a let down...naw, with your level of attention to detail you could make a dog dish an interesting project. Keep up the great content.
One word 'Stunning'
I could not think of a more qualified and intriguing person to listen to speak about design and its mysterious origins.
So happy to hear you’re getting the recognition you so highly deserve.
I also enjoy seeing “tits” written on the screen after a good cut.
Always enjoy your content! This piece is mind blowing.
