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.
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!
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👏🏻👏🏻!
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.
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.
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.
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. 👏
I'm going to say that's the most useless coffee table that is made to absolute perfection I've ever seen
Love your work. I would love it more if it was more about woodwork and less about philosophy! I know the two can be intertwined, but they don’t need to be. You’re clever, we get it. Let your work speak for itself 👍🏼
It is really cool to listen to physiology during this artwork.
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.
SO GREAT to see your work again!!
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.
The most beautiful designs and not only in furniture are actually very simple. Your design is super overcooked frankenstein veneers glued together with weird barrel on right. Basic concept is very good though. Lose that weird barrel, Don.t overdone top but leave it as solid walnut piece to create nice contrast to sides and you have jaw dropping design made with taste 😊
If somebody asked for the opposite of a river table, I think I'd point them to this.
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.
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 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!
Genius! Not only your sublime woodworking but your mesmerising voice over. Your videos are ………an Experience!
Admiring your determination, i must agree with your own assessment that you didn't think the design through sufficiently. Especially the rounded over edges of the column parts is an objective design error. Even with the pretentious quasi Eastern religious BS-philosophy.
Wooow Beutifull
If you're trying to find flow, you must first find a pre-menopause woman.
This is pure art.
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.
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? 😬
Amazing craftsmanship with insane level of detailing, You are a very talented woodworker. But that table is a horrible design. You cant always quantify aesthetics through theory and numbers. Please make more videos! Love your work!
Some solve sudoku for hobbies.
Some do problem solving designing/building.
I want to develop my crafts. How do I make money doing sudoku?
Hey Nick, you prob don’t remember me but we talked like a year and a half ago when I was in Japan. You invited me to message you when I’m back in the states and set up a time we can meet up. Well I’m stationed in San Diego now and ur not too far. Would love to meet up and grab a drink and pick your brain about design. Hope you see this. Also, Merry Christmas!
Very well done, amazing skills, but design is not good. Too busy, too much of everything, lacking style, and it doesn’t fit in interior. Nevertheless, Interesting to watch, thank you
Dude.......again....nice watch! It'll be vintage in no time! Why don't you do some unveiling with your clients.....to get the reaction, see the setting it is put in, etc. Would be a nice feature. Sorry if someone already noted this avenue! Not my taste on this project, but awesome wood working none the less! Congrats on the invites to conferences, etc. They are always looking for new people with talent.....and you were an obvious choice!
Perfect example as to why true artist are broke 😂
~1,000 hours x $40 per hour wage and that would amount to $40,000 😮
If I saw that table I would love it but I would have to be super rich to drop $40K on it.
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.
I see many or most channels doing something’s they love and then what is pop now. Or others just do pop things, whatever. I love you and the “blacks” doing mostly or all of your love of woodworking. Yeah. We get their and your personal ads but the overall is awesome woodworking. Ty for giving us what you have learned
Gives me a Prince Rupert's drop vibe. You definitely have own your design esthetic which is increasingly difficult to achieve. 👍🏼
It is a bit comical and pretty weird, that many artisans today produce their stuff so precisely, that it looks like something made by a machine.
Is that the new black? ... Concealing one's humanity by becoming a machine imitation?
There is Awesome, and then there is something beyond awesome. If you look it up in a dictionary you'll probably find this video.
Thank you for sharing this thing of wonder.
Awesome and a great example of lateral thinking in design. 1000hrs must have been pricey!!!
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 🤔
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…
Nice build and great videography but I couldn't finish watching due to all the freakin' commercials. I fear you are now a victim of your own success.
Steep Learning Curve: Graph knowledge on Y axis. Time is on X. The steeper the curve the easier something is to learn. As the slope approaches infinity learning becomes almost instantaneous, think Neo jacking in to a training session.
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?
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?
The more "swooshy", "stylish", and "flowing" the design, the faster one gets tired of it, and the sooner it goes out of style. But yeah, swooshy designs can be interesting and even beautiful... for a while.
My poor bread box is quietly weeping in the corner now cos you said she wasn't sexy... 😢
Nick I don't care what you said before but your a MASTER WOODWORKER 👍
Holy shit! This piece is tits for sure! I really enjoy the level of detail and time/care you put into your designs. Amazing!
If carlsberg made a piece of furniture!
One of the best things I've ever seen built anywhere!!!
👍😎
The work and craftsmanship are great but not lying, it is visually unappealing and I hate where you placed your name plate.
What’s funny to me is my favorite part about wood working is making the jigs rather than actually making the product/cabinet
I am sorry, but this is like putting a gold chain on a pig. Your piece of artwork doesn't belong in that room or in front of that couch.
However, if the client is paying for it, they get what they want.
I am signing off from youtube for good. Dont think there is anything else left to watch after "Waterfall Veneer work" 🤯
From the moment you posted your 1 st video I knew I was watching a super star! Remember who created those hands and no it was not a happen stance thing! “ it was good very good”!
Come on don’t stop now!
Guau que preciosidad. Un trabajo excelente!! Te felicito 👏👏👏🙂
Dude that song is fire, what is it?
lol dude there’s like 30 songs. Which one? The final shots? Human - Rex banner
Bet u 5 bucks u cant make something that good using only chipboard and a shovel
Great use of the term curvilinear. Respect,
Love it. I wonder what it would be like with a Hokusai woodcut reproduced on the interior canvas?
Stunning piece, Nick! Really crazy beautiful work!!! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Wow! You are on another level I have ever witnessed. May God continue to bless you .
Ever since Progressive introduced Flow, I too wonder how to have her & keep her 😂
Ok, guys, I guess we've just found woodworking darwinianism. Love it! ❤
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.
Genius! No other word will serve here. This is genius from design to execution.
You work continues to impress me, keep up the great work nick
Thanks Tanner!
You skipped an opportunity to call it The Learning Kerf
I hope to some day achieve your level of artistry and attention to detail! So meticulous! Well done!
Yea I’m still working on tying my shoes. Awesome job.
Unbelievable! Insane craftsmanship brother !
800 hours? What’s the labor alone on that??? 🤦🏻♂️
This project would have given me grey hairs 😅
Missed opportunity to call the class learning kerf
In one word AMAZING (Marc from Belgium)
I’d love to see you build a guitar. I’d bet it would be stunning.
Beautiful work, freaking ugly piece of furniture,
Amazing work. Thank you for the video
This was one of the best table builds I have ever seen 👍
That would suit my house perfectly...
But are there pencil marks still on the point? Looks cool tho
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
Smells like feet? must have come from India
Less of this.. more epoxy river tables plz
Ha!
Absolutley Amazing! Excellent craftsmanship - Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure! Appreciate you watching
Man this is soo sick, you nailed it!!! Great job
As always- you are freaking amazing!
Nice! Where did u get your metal logo inlay?
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!
this was awesome to watch for the last few months. thanks man!
This is absolutely stunning. That door is tits
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.
did you just assume that sea turtles gender!? 😂
would you be interested in doing a design course
GTFOH! This thing is TITS 🤙🏼
👁️🐢👁
Absolutely amazing!! ❤❤❤
Sorry, but this is a horrible design. 2/3 of the table is too narrow to be really usable. Same goes for the storage beneath the table top. Furthermore the “storage” space takes away any leg room beneath the table, so you end up with an unpractical table top with an un-useable cupboard beneath it that is annoying to sit next to… Furniture has functions, and for all your hard work to end up with this monstrosity is a real shame. You got too caught up in this idea of flow and what not, that you forgot it was a table you where making.
С жиру беситесь. Такая тумба 😳. Сколько стоит?
How much did you sell it for?
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
