Simone has 20 000 match sticks
Simone is the person they warned us about in math class
PK Fire
I just sat through this whole fukn video. U see what this coronavirus shut down is doing to normal people like I used to be. Oh by the way I can’t see any fukn sense in burning 20000 matches to make a shit lookin table
@Michael Mc Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one...even you.
@k & p Are you saying that he is shit? Or that his opinion is shit? Because I wont argue with either.
I'm imagining a Bad [Blank] Science Collab with Simone and Safiya....
@@mikeymc3094 Nearly three million views seems to make sense to me. Also looked like fun to make it and I actually like how it looks. Better than anything from Ikea, at the very least.
I like that she set herself on fire, burning a hole through her clothes, and lost some hair, but neither of those happened during the acual "match burning" step.
Leila Byerly where did the hole thru cloths happen?

It's refreshing watching a youtuber wearing all the safety gear when cutting and welding etc.
To bad she still set fire to herself.

My favorite part was the, "Oh, epoxy in my hair? Screw it, trim it off, and back to work!" I've always loved the spirit of craftsmen. I'm subscribing because you seem really cool.
The control with that fire extinguisher was admirable.
totally stupid
@@fortunatoofamontillado1059 just like your face. Ha!

Speaking of matches: your face and my arse
I was literally shocked how well she handled the extinguishing process. I thought those matches would burn through at least partly.
@@dafoex oooooooooooof. Goteee.
That coffee table actually turned out to be pretty tasteful!
Ashley Gray hold up.
Wait a damn minute...
What the?
tasty* 😳
I personally don't think it "matches"
Ahh ❤️ It turned out so amazing! So glad we were able to be a tiny part of this 🙂 also I can't believe we forgot to mention double gloving, it's a live saver 🤣

Maybe this could count as a little colab
But I do also hope for MORE!!
4 years later the world wants to know what cleaning this is like.
I was going to do a “will it charcoal?: table” at some point but seems Simone beat me to it. 🤣
she has a habit of doing things that way
Well there's still room for improvement. She didn't do a taste test.
Just don't put mercury in your mouth anymore, Cody.
OMG HI! Big fan of ur channel!
I still want to see if it will charcoal. Will it be an ordinary table or a table made of matches?
I was like “oh she should keep it green” and then i realised how much of a fire hazard that would be.
Covering them in epoxy likely wouldve neutralized them anyways.
Silent Slayer still, better safe then sorry
@@MemyselfandIliketobealone Is it not flammable when it's half burnt?
Ryan Tsui it is still flammable, but (I assume) less so since the match heads are designed to light and the already burnt matches are basically just wood
I guess in theory she could have just painted them with some green spray paint after burning them but with the finished edges it looks better this way, I think. that shade of green and the creative shape of it would have ended up looking a little less modern and a little more mod
i'd say the coffee table was pretty lit

Why
Thank you for that.
LMFAO!
Ohhhhhh beacuse she lights it on fire and made of matches
"It's been such a good month" Looks at date, cannot help the laughter.
Oh early 2020 people...I hope you enjoyed it while you could...

And she built a soap dispenser from KiwiCo and spoke about the importance of washing your hands...
She was trying to warn us. Even did her own haircut before it was cool!

Imagine if she had pulled "Bookcase made of Books" though?
Deliciously redundant!
Reminds me of a “Bookshelf made out of a book” project I saw on Instructables ages ago. Looks like a floating pile of books!
Check out Peter Brown's Shop Time channel - a cereal bowl made of cereal, a cake stand made from sprinkles, a margarita glass made from rock salt, a pen for Adam Savage made from a copy of Adam Savage's book... so many dreams come true on his channel :p
Thats just abuse of books.
:-/
Lol, coffee table made out of coffee
You only need 3 books and 6 pieces of wood to make a bookshelf.
Imagine being a cashier, you're having another normal boring day, and all of a sudden a girl with 20.000 matches walks by.
Cashier, thinking: should I call the police? or the fire department?
Could get mistaken for a meth cook
The matchstick girl would have survived just fine.
Pierre C 🤣🤣😂👍
I was going to write a joke about, "if only the little match girl had survived the winter", but now I'm literally tearing up. Sniff.
I don't know why this showed up in my recommended, especially 2 years later but I am so glad it did. That table came out WAY cooler than I expected it to.

Living life on the edge
Was totally making me nervous. I wonder if the epoxy acts as a fire retardant
@Crystal KayNine thanks for the info
@@itssssstef It's not like you can light the same match twice...
My grandma's first job was packing matches in LA. She said everyone had a tiny fire extinguisher by their standing station and she got really good at quick draws. She said nothing major happened, it was just if you swooped up your 100 too fast it would catch a spark and a couple would catch fire. Ya know, nothing major in a factory full of them.
reminds me of my current job - I'm a welder, and we use rags soaked in lacquer thinner to clean parts before welding them. lacquer thinner is extremely flammable and about once a month someone will leave their bottle and rag a little too close while they're mig welding and one will go up. Almost nothing else in the shop is flammable though so we just toss the burning rags onto the floor and wait for them to go out or stamp them out. If the bottle goes up, though, that's when the fire extinguisher becomes necessary.
@@comradegarrett1202 Ooo thanks for the insider welder knowledge. I oil paint, and I didn't understand why you are supposed to keep your rags out of the sun and away from glass cups. I never started a fire, but I singed a towel and never forgot it.
@@monkey93xf spontaneous combustion is a real thing
They do if they are self-striking matches.
Oh, before the safety match was invented!
Don’t you just LOVE how your most anxious driven and maybe slightly physically challenging projects end up being your favorite? I’ve been working on a glitter painting for over a year now and it’s been incredibly challenging and obviously time consuming. I also had no clue how much mod podge I would need for it. I’ve spent close to $400 in materials (including the burden on my energy bill and replacing two hair dryers) and it’s been incredibly rewarding watching something I first drafted coming into form. I’m not done yet, I have a lot of down time waiting on layers to cure so that I can see what it actually looks like between layers, because as you work with mod podge it isn’t actually clear while painting…so there is a LOT of “trust the process” moments lol. I’m terrified of the final layer because then I have to decided if I’m going to use a final layer with resin or if I’m going to do a final 3cm mod podge layer. The board it’s on is already pushing 50lbs and I’m going to have to make a metal case for displaying since the foam board can’t be used to put hardware on just to mount as it is.
Anyways, I just happened upon this in my recommendations and I’m really glad I watched it. Seeing someone else experience all the stages of grief with a project just encouraged me to hang in there.
when she said “it’s been a good month” my heart went 💞💞💞💞
Me too!
You buying all the matches reminds me of those school questions "If Mark buys 47 watermelons". But screw Mark and his 47 watermelons. Simone with 20,000 matches is way cooler.
I know it's a joke, but I wonder would kids be more interested in weird questions like that
@@barrackobama5470 for sure, if it involves fire :)
Wyatt A what about Mark Rober and 1232 lemons
Probably on some kind of watchlist for meth cooks
when she said this project I was like, how many matches, then said 34,500 matches, and was like how much does that COST? I look online maybe 250 for 1.99 so like $275 USD, maybe she got a better deal but its still a lot of money just for the material.
I'm genuinely surprised by how it turned out. I thought it was silly at first, now, after watching through, I want the table so much.
Same, and I don't even like grey or metallic furniture.
Yeah, but it would probrobly smell like smoke for a few week
Leviathan not a bug, it’s a feature.

Simone.... you catch yourself on fire with sparks from a grinder.... you are now officially a pro fabricator!!! Congrats!!!!
Not enough jump cuts, pointless summaries and the editing is WAYYYY better.
sure, she uses the same music
i love how she lost the hair from the glue, not from the fire, like she literally set all those matches on fire and came out fine, but it's the glue that makes her lose her hair LMAO
Also she burned a hole in her clothes, not from the fire, but from her angle grinder

You're not doing it right if things don't go sideways a few times. Also, you're probably not having as much fun if everything went ‘TV perfect’.
I know people who have been doing my job for over a decade and they still have things go sideways at least a couple times a day.

When people talk about makers, there are innovators and copycats. You are an innovator. Kudos, first on your idea generator, and second on this project. I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out, but I like it.
Just remember: All this started when a quirky crazy weird girl was doing fail robots to help with everyday things. Simone you are amazing! Never stop doing what you are doing!
You should read the Wired article about her! Takes you through the whole journey from there to here
She’s the failed robot girl?? I forgot she existed for a hot minute

Thank you! I knew this channel was familiar! I saw the megabots crossover where she guest -stared and pioleted a giant robot to cut stuff in a giant fake kitchen setting.

You won't have to do that, you could probably fix cars, fix factory machines ect
I think women would be fantastic in this field. They think just different enough to to bring something fresh to it. I've built things all my life but I've found that sometimes my wife will have the idea that sparks something really cool. She's not really into "building" stuff but I've met many women that are, they're amazing when they go for it!
That's an exciting gig! I'm envious. As for making things being a man's domain...that's rubbish. It's an outdated and certainly invalid mode of thinking. I have a young daughter and much to her chagrin, I have her help me work on cars, help me in the woodwork shop and nearly anything else around that house that needs repairing. I figure one of my job as a parent is to impart as much practical knowledge as possible and if I do my job right, one day she won't need me anymore. It has nothing to do with gender and everything to do with being a self-sufficient adult...although I have gotten pretty good at doing braids.
Her: casually makes a table out of matches
Also her: casually sets a lit candle on said table
My anxiety: 📈📈📈📈
It's on a £90 brass circle drawing coaster too
I mean whats gonna happen the matches arent even "explosive" anymore
Phosphorous is all used up, there's an apoxy on the top. If a heat gun was used to get the bubbles out and that didn't ignite anything or burn the handles, the candle won't do a damn thing.
Your anxiety is invalid, you need to pay attention.
Yes. Match sticks are well known for not being flammable as soon as the head is burnt...
@Dani Masterson hes not wrong tho

New sub here. I just wanted to say how refreshing it is to find a build channel with a creator that isn't afraid to cuss and be natural.

Moved a few months ago (apartment to shared but big house), around the time I discovered this channel. Honestly been a big inspiration, as I never did a lot of handiwork before.

Sam Forpanek except it makes you feel better also my response was a joke...
Sets 20,000 matches ablaze - No worries.
Uses epoxy - "I lost some hair"
😂 You're the best Simone! ❤
She didn't lost any of her eyebrows tho.
This woman had a part of her brain removed and still has these amazing ideas... WHAT AM I DOING
Daniel Luu Well, technically, it wasn't her idea, it was her patrons ideas, she just executed them.
@@Krey_ ...if you can call the patrons giving her random words for the brainstorming framework she created, then Simone drafting multiple designs and plans, and then executing the project the "patrons" idea, I suppose.
Daniel Luu - Can you elaborate? This is my first video of hers. Thanks!
@@Andrea-xs4ny she had brain cancer
Maybe it was the part in charge of "That's impossible to do/ That doesn't make sense/ I don't feel like...."
1st time watcher, 1st time subscriber here...saw this video in my feed and was very interested! I love how the process went and how the results came out! 😎😎😎
wow, when this started I did not expect you to end up with a piece that looks like it's from an art gallery! The final product looks really cool
I would have made the forking door.
@@adilacma but why? He has no videos
Idk thought it was funny if I say I love a random channel
Yeah 2 months later I think it was weird
@@adilacma if only I was here two days earlier lol
Simone: makes highly flammable table.
Simone: immediately puts candle on top.
How is it anymore highly flammable than any other wooden table? The matcheads are burned
@@Heksu99 Yeah... It isn't.
@@Heksu99 it's just meant to be a funny comment.
I never said it was more flammable than other wooden tables. Just that it is a highly flammable table. It probably is more flammable than other tables because of the very thin pieces of wood sticking out of the bottom.
Does it still burn with the epoxy tho
@@Ultiminatiprobably not. Although it looks like it was only lightly painted on top.
This is legit awesome! At first I wasn't sure about the stair shape, but I've come around when I saw the finished product. And I love that you kept the match stick legs underneath.
That is literally the coolest table ever. I want to make this at school but I don't think they would like me burning 20,000 matches in the shop.
Yaaaaa they might have some questions for you 🤣
more like literally the HOTTEST table ever. I'll see myself out
Can't believe how perfect that burn ended up being, smashing result, definitely worth 3 days of match placement!
What kind of monster doesn’t record this in slow-mo.
I wondered the same thing XD
I love that she cut her hair with kitchen scissors. That just really seemed to fit. You have a fun brain, Simone!
"Some people just want to see coffee tables burn, master Bruce"
😂😂😂
Math questions be like: “If Simone buys 20,000 matches how many will be left is she uses ONE match?"
FBI 5
Zero.
a table.
@@mork2288 :D

This should be in the Guinness world record for the most flammable table ever
That was amazing. I love the thought process, and the interpretation of coffee table made of matches. And you ended up with a new, useable table.
You're such a positive and inspiring human being
Right after mentioning Evan and Katelyn: *Simon breaks her glove*
Me, an E&K fan: This is why we double glove, Simon. This is why we double glove.
Exaaaactly :) And I am hearing this in E&K's voices.
9:45 The part you want to see.
Thank
Good man
yeah, i definitely searched for this.
Thank
@Simone you are awesome. I watched your tedx vid twice. And now this table, just for coffee and books. You are super awesome!!
She's on both the ATF's and the DEA's list after buying that many match heads
Wait why?

@Dan Tillson I am the one who knocks!
