After checking it at 0.25 speed, i am not sure about that. Maybe the sharpness and location of the blade was the culprit? Edit: op was right, and i was wrong.
Im looking at it with my super secret NSA decoding machine and it was running backwards. Because there was no shavings going in the direction of the blade.
@@zsomborszarka2616 Did You check at 9:12 with .25 speed? I think it's wrong direction. e.g. saw dust in original video collects on blade's side. In this video on opposite side.
Definately spining the wrong way, the wood should be spinned into the blade, so either change the rotation on the drill or change the side the blade is mounted on :))
I actually bought a picnic table like that this summer. It was built by carpentry students at a technical school near me. They build them for practice and then sell them to support the program.
@@BlokedAgainmost places the student get to keep their work haha if I spent all that time building something I wouldn’t want my school just selling it off.
Teacher never let John have a pencil sharper after so many incidents. So he never got the basics. Like you have to rotate the pencil into the blade. But if all else fails shove it in harder and let friction do the work!!! 😂😂😂
Yeah, the one he built was terrible because when you fold the table part down, you have 2 benches that face away from each other. My guess is he bought the plans from the tik tok creator who did not actually make the bench in the video and made some janky plans to scam people out of a few bucks.
Watching these videos takes me back to my youth. My old man and I were working through books from the 70’s or 80’s with 100 of DIY would builds from a letterbox and bird house to small cabins. So many unfinished ones.
The Woodworking Plan he bought is not the same table as shown in the TikTok video. So he did build it to plan, just not to the Tik Tok vid. The Tik Tok Video table does look more appealing with how it's constructed and tilts.
So I'm a metal worker...always avoided working with wood. Found your channel a week ago because of the pallet videos. Then I was like "if his pallet videos are this good his wood working videos are probably as good or better". Just ordered some wood tools as a result of your channel and I'm excited to dig in. Would love to see some tutorials. Really enjoy your content mate.
You're team is the bomb. they get the humor and now they're sending it back to you. I LOVE the interaction. reminds me of my Army days. This type of interaction is good for YOUR soul.
"Always cut your longest pieces first." Best advice my Father-in-law (b. 1909) ever gave me. He was a cabinet maker and I treasure the times we worked together. He was more a Daddy to me than my Father was (I worked with my Father-in-law for 25 years, but my father, who never threw a ball to me, I lived with as a parasite for 17 years until I went to college . . . if you get that reference).
I was just about to say this but saw a few others pointed it out, but I'm pretty sure the setup for that dowel cutter was backwards and you basically turned it into a fire started instead.
Sunday morning coffee with John, my fav part of the weekend…..other than sleeping late but John is cool with it. He’s patient waiting for me to wake then brush my teeth, then pee, then take trash out, then make coffee…..the point is he’s a major part of my Sunday funday. 😅
9:00 min… John burns the dowel round. Instead of reevaluating, he proceeds to get squirrely and brute force it. 😂😂😂. Oh and If anyone was curious he was going the wrong direction with the drill. The wood was just spinning on the bottom of the plane blade. It would have worked fine if he reversed it.
I like the little picnic table/benches. They could do for improv work desks for laptops. It's like little school desks for kids. Lean it against a wall, and you have a tiny desk. Definitely not for larger folks, but the benches are cute. Also, it looks like the dowel spinner was going the wrong way.
Wish we could post pictures to comments here... I made the miter saw bowl last week out of some pine scraps I had laying around. 1-1/2 wide pieces glued crisscross & stacked a couple layers. It came out pretty cool. Used jigsaw to cut it into rounded shape & beveled the bottom a tad with my router. Have some hardwood scraps glued up & waiting for another day to do that.
Love the way you add random comedy along with interesting content, think the chemistry works perfectly, that's why you get a shit tom of views, love the channel.
Rob Cosman has a video on making a Dowel jig similar to the fire starter you were making. I think he suggested using exotic woods with high natural oil content like wenge that will self lubricate. He also tapers the in feed side of the jig.
We used to do something like the sazall paint shaker in the metal shop I used to work at. We used a jigsaw and a hose clamp and chucked the whole contraption up into a bench vice. It's not pretty, but it got the job done
I think one of the harder parts of woodworking is the creativity. I think it would be interesting if after you built a social media project you talk about what things you might add or subtract from the project. This would be more of “idea generating” than a critique of the project. 👍
The chop saw bowl technique is pretty cool. If it doesn't exist already, you should come up with a jig to make a matching outside profile on a table saw or disk sander. Im sure a ton of people would love to be able to make bowls without the investment or learning curve of a lathe.
he was also spinning the the dowel in the wrong direction and that's why it burned lmao if it was spinnign the other way it would have CUT THE WOOD and not RUBBED IT!! lmao
John, being human means we are not perfect. However, checking rotation direction making towels is a must. I was well pleased that you made some great copies. Good post mate 👍
Everyone talking about the dowel but did nobody notice the table is a completely different style? The video shows a support structure for the top/seat back that folds and rests on the seat in the down position and when in the up position, has a sort of triangular corner support. John built a center hinge with literally no support for the tabletop in the table position. Either those are the wrong plans or I'm crazy
From this video I learned a shortcut for the "fire drill" method of starting a fire. Now I feel prepared for any survival situation...as long as I have a fully charged battery.
I have that Makita. On the left at the back of the slide rails, there's a black 1/2" spring loaded pin. Pull it out, twist it 90 degrees and it locks the slide all the way back. There's no way to lock it partially. Does he deliberately mess everything up for eyeballs? "What's great about decimals..." Literally how the metric system was invented hundreds of years ago.
I have to have a rueful chuckle when I see things that I built years ago that are now going viral. When I got my first sliding power mitre box, a guy in the store actually suggested the bowl thing (mid '90s, as I recall) and I tried it and it worked great. Never even thought about it again until now 😂
Can you recreate the videos of a guy running a piece of wood through a small lunch box planer or removing bark with draw knife on a live edge slab? I absolutely love those.
At 18:37, the "better judgement" is used to connect the horizontal bar on the back of the benches. But that puts them under the table, so they're in the way of your feet. I would have placed them on the other side so they won't be in the way as much
when a smart man does a stupid thing not even realizing hes not using the blade to cut... at least we now know how to start a friction fire with just a drill 😂
Lucky for me I have a lathe lol. I do love the paint can shaker idea. I would use an old blade and drill out that stop at the end. Then use that as my primary rivet hole. Then make a few more goin up the blade. Then a few "safety" zipties just for my own added safety and I think it would work a lot better. Also, I would only use it vertically, pointed down to ease the stress on the blade tang.
My dad made fold up picnic tables for both of my sisters and I as christmas presents a few years ago. He didn't use any plans though and had many hours into it. I could see where the time would plummet though if you built one, set up some jigs and then mass produced.
The bowl type project went pretty well and yeah it was a bit sketchy with how close the fingers got to the blade. the Bench type project went pretty well might want to put some kind of latch on the under side to help keep it aligned and make it a little more secure in the table configuration.
Looks like I barely missed out on UA-cam fame when I did one of those miter saw cuts 19 years ago (to do a big concave radius on a stool seat, not a bowl) 😂. I was using a table saw - it's 100X faster if you just lift up the blade incrementally and spin the work sideways through the teeth!
We need a redo on that dowel one. Works better when it’s spinning the right direction.
YeahI wasn’t gonna say anything….
I was thinking that the whole time.
Thank god someone said it geeeeez dude shit was stressing me out
I noticed that as well.
or put the blade on the other side ?
Loll, you're spinning the dowel the wrong direction

Edit: op was right, and i was wrong.
Im looking at it with my super secret NSA decoding machine and it was running backwards. Because there was no shavings going in the direction of the blade.
I was about to say the color of the cutter looks like it hasn't been sharpened since 1989

Definately spining the wrong way, the wood should be spinned into the blade, so either change the rotation on the drill or change the side the blade is mounted on :))
"Thank you, I love it!" (trying to figure out what its supposed to be). We all deserve partners like this.
We should all aspire to BE those partners for the ones we love.
Sitting at a desk so lopsided her laptop barely stays on.
That's the problem with just sending it... sometimes your drill isn't spinning the right way...

Underrated tip at 15:17. Always cut your longest pieces first, that way if you mis-cut it short, it can still be used for other pieces.
I prefer to cut twice and measure once.
@@angrymeowngi 😄 Every now and then I think we all have that "ah crap" moment where something in the plan doesn't quite work out.
but at what point do you realise it's too short? after you've already started building and cut all the shorter lengths? :D
I love how the picknick table bench came out completely different than the vid haha did you buy the wrong plans?
Also where are the plans?????
He said they'd be below an I ain't seeing no link!!
Yeah, the one he built was terrible because when you fold the table part down, you have 2 benches that face away from each other.
My guess is he bought the plans from the tik tok creator who did not actually make the bench in the video and made some janky plans to scam people out of a few bucks.
I noticed that. I think there was some bamboozling going on there. Definitely not the same bench/table as shown
yeah the one in the video had support so the table couldn't fold in, also designed in a way that leaning back on the bench couldn't make it fold back
if you pause at 14:11 you can see the plan on the clipboard, and it is completely different from the source video.
Watching these videos takes me back to my youth. My old man and I were working through books from the 70’s or 80’s with 100 of DIY would builds from a letterbox and bird house to small cabins. So many unfinished ones.
That joint was awesome. Please build something using those joints!!!
The picnic table you built and the one in the ticktok are completely different 😂😂. Love the videos! Keep killin it!

John…..🤦🏼♂️ lmao you’re spinning the dowel the wrong direction
You know it'll get the likes for the engagement call because we ALL want to see that...
a tip, for making the bowls, a smaller circular saw blade will allow you to make deeper bowls., or a bigger piece of wood. you do you.
Another tip, I guess- double stick the piece to a lazy susan bearing so you don't have to be afraid to cut into a screw or nail.
@@PikkaBird That’s a good idea
Welp John looks like your making your old Steelers jersey 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 7:33
08:40 The rotation of the dowel should be towards the blade not away of it (like pencil sharpener)
I noticed that too, it's indeed like a pencil sharpener. Maybe try with cedar, sinds pencils are made out of cedar wood.
@@js-mu9tx I do not think that the type of wood is a much difference here, just don't push very aggressively if it is a hardwood.
18:58 you should add a clip to the side of the “table” part so you can latch it in place
Am I the only one who just found out he is a former nfl player?
LITERALLY
Forreal😂
Nope me too
He is

Thank you. So glad I'm not the only one that noticed.
Yea was going to say the same thing then your comment popped up
None cares

I was literally yelling at my phone hahahaha
Lookin forward to seeing you do your Pittsburgh jersey definitely crushed that 25k likes goal time to make her happen brother!

@4:15 when the wife hates the present but makes out she loves it not to upset the husband

THIS WAS SO MUCH FUN TO WATCH-Then I set the playback speed at 2 (double-speed) and watched it again-it was even more fun!!
I’m making that style of picnic with my middle schoolers next week. 😊
The amount of fun you had on the sprung tenon was great to watch!
Best part of that bench table combo is if one side gets up the other side wont flip over❤
The plank reference gets my subscription love the content as well hahaha
Why not weld a used throwaway blade to the stem of the clamp and just leave the mounting part clear ?
That’s not squirrelly enough for John.
Or duct tape.
Why not just buy one. They already make these. Lol
@@jeremyboecker9236 Where's the fun in that 😎
@@zackpedersen2666 seriously. i was worried the blade would fly off. his videos are entertaining, but damn, he takes "safety 3rd" way too literal

I wish I could pull that off, respect.
Spinning the dowel the WRONG DIRECTION!!!!!!!

7:20 so where's the jersey at John??
I came here for the dowel spinning comments..
I wasn’t disappointed 😆🤦🏻♂️
Love the dowel thing, it's literally a big pencil sharpener.
“After this I’m building a picnic table out of 2x4’s” definitely the funniest line I’ve heard in a minute.
man you are a master woodworker!

The bbq fire lighter under the gass cap of a car is a brilliant idea if you can't loosen the gas cap off
The sprung joint, I bet you could lock it in place with a wedge.
Spinning the dowel in the wrong direction. Doh! 😂
Great video .
Lucky for me I have a lathe lol. I do love the paint can shaker idea. I would use an old blade and drill out that stop at the end. Then use that as my primary rivet hole. Then make a few more goin up the blade. Then a few "safety" zipties just for my own added safety and I think it would work a lot better. Also, I would only use it vertically, pointed down to ease the stress on the blade tang.
I wanted that picnic table for the longest time, but I’d want latches on the ends to hold it together.
Do a video playing with a moulding cutter set on the RAS to make trim…. 👌
My dad made fold up picnic tables for both of my sisters and I as christmas presents a few years ago. He didn't use any plans though and had many hours into it. I could see where the time would plummet though if you built one, set up some jigs and then mass produced.
The bowl type project went pretty well and yeah it was a bit sketchy with how close the fingers got to the blade. the Bench type project went pretty well might want to put some kind of latch on the under side to help keep it aligned and make it a little more secure in the table configuration.
The dowel trick is actually a Rob Cosman jig he uses for wood hinges
Looks like I barely missed out on UA-cam fame when I did one of those miter saw cuts 19 years ago (to do a big concave radius on a stool seat, not a bowl) 😂. I was using a table saw - it's 100X faster if you just lift up the blade incrementally and spin the work sideways through the teeth!
