A once in a lifetime woodworking project. It was one of the best, most rewarding experiences of my life. There is nothing I can't build now. I used Maple(top,trestles), Walnut(contrasting pieces), Garry Oak(legs)and Red Oak(vises).

You probably aren't going to read this... But that's okay I just wanted to tell you that your woodworking has inspired me to woodwork as a hobby and you have changed my life. I owe you more than you'll ever know. Thanks samurai
Funny, this guy has no clue how he just created a bond with my son like I've never known. And I love him for that.
Lots of people read this...do you have your own channel and produce great woodwork by now? hoping so. Thank you for sharing!
@@manny3549 I do not have a channel but since then I have hand built everything everything in my home and started a side business with woodworking. CNC. Epoxy wood tables etc. it’s been a blast.
Very nice
Possibly the most gorgeous workbench I've ever seen! Your craftsmanship and attention to detail are spectacular. The design and ability to break it down for moving is excellent. The sliding vice design and details are awesome. Art, heirloom furniture, and tool. This is a masterpiece workbench I hope your kids catch the wood bug and it stays in your family for several generations.

Neida Serafine Fake News!
4 years later and i still come back and rewatch this video... Its just peaceful to watch
Just did the same too. Quality.
Same here! This video was hugely inspirational to me when it first came out. Still is.
I don’t think you realize what impact you have on some peoples lives. Sir, you are amazingly talented and an incredible inspiration to thousands that I know for sho! I know this video is a couple years old but remains a gem! Awesome awesome job
Wow, you're piece of work is actually a piece of art. Very relaxing to watch that workbench being made. Amazing to see no screws or nails being used. Very few people have your skills and knowledge. Thanks for sharing!

Here is a great video I found online that will show you some good woodworking plans: HootWood. com
What an incredibly nice project. You almost made me cry at the end with your words about your children.
He’s a master craftsman like you!
Wish more of the craftmen would be like you, Sir. I'm currently using my grandfather's tools and starting to learn joinery and simple woodcrafts from all the material he left here.
I'm living in the old winecellar/garage with my girlfriend at the small plot of my grandparents and trust me, when I say it: your attitude, precision, talent and perseverance will live on and speak to your children just as you wished!
Through your work and thoughts You are giving priceless heritage to the world, not just your children. Keep up with it, never cease to create!
Greetings from Hungary! :)
They will always remember you! I have carpentry tools that were my father’s . Almost thirty years ago when I received them. Even today, when I pick one up to use . I feel his presence and here him giving me guidance on how to use it! It’s a great thing to be able to hand things down to the kids!
Gosh. Jesse I watch this video like once a month. I'm still in awe of how absolutely stunning and excellent the bench, and your video for it is. Great frickin work man.
I am stunned. Almost no screw.
You have gold in your hands.
I'd love to be able to do the same stuff.
And your kids are beautifull.
A huge like !

This is most beautiful work bench I have every seen! I love your choice of contrasting wood. I caught myself saying no effing way on several occasions during this video. Beautiful work, man!
*ever
Anyone who has ever done even a little bit of wood work has to admire your straightness and accuracy ! Wonderful workmanship.
therapeutic in fact..... symphony of excellence...
That is the most beautiful project I've ever seen. The Francis quote at the beginning is wholly appropriate, you sir are an artist of the first water and that is shaker level craftsmanship. Your grandsons grandsons and granddaughters granddaughters will still treasure that bench and I would recommend keeping a copy of this video on a memory chip hidden inside one of the pins so that in 200 years someone will watch that speech at the end and hear the voice that they could only have imagined.
Your craftsmanship amazes me. As an older guy (61 YO), my failure to build a skill like this haunts me. Thanks for the opportunity to live vicariously through your videos.
its not too late
To Scott Gibbs
Think positively, my friend. Advice from me to you AND TO MYSELF. As Joe Poe said, " It's not too late". It's NEVER too late.
It's a privilege to watch a true craftsman at work. that bench is truly beautiful, functional and a to top it off a work of art. Major kudos
Sir, I was held rapt for the duration of this build. This workbench is a piece of heirloom quality fine furniture. Thank you so much for sharing.
Man, I never comment on videos but that was truly remarkable. True craftsmanship. Beautiful

That is such a beautiful work bench. Truly a work of Art, that bench could sit in an Art Gallery. I would have that in the middle of the living room just to show it off. Great craftsmanship.
Man I watched this video a few years ago and I never forgot about it. Now that I finally have the space to make it happen, I came back to watch it again so that I can start planning to construct this incredible piece! Beautiful work brother!
One of the finest workbench video I've seen till date. Awesome work at every level, be it the workbench, video & music, just captivating to watch from start to end. "He who works with his hands and his head and his heart is an artist", you prove this statement.
About midway through this amazing build, it dawned on me why you are doing this. For your kids. Then you confirmed it in the end. Just an amazing work.
Same
Love the quote from Francis de Assisi - you might also like this one -
"The whole difference between construction and creation is exactly this: that a thing constructed can only be loved after it is constructed, but a thing created is loved before it exists.” ~ Gilbert Keith Chesterton
This thing is a work of art. It's too beautiful to beat up making projects.
That is a work of art, can't think of anything better to leave your kids
Wow. Absolutely beautiful table and as a new father I like what you said at the end about the workbench being an enduring item to pass on to the next generation. Great work
omg that shaving in the end, I want my casket to be filled with these when I die!
That is the most beautiful workbench I've ever seen! A stunning creation. I've watched the video 3 times now. Very well done sir. I'm not ashamed to say I got a little emotional watching the lumber take shape into a functional piece of art that will be around for hundreds of years no doubt. I can't imagine how fulfilling it was for you to see it complete. That is the workbench that all other workbenches will be compared to forever in my opinion.
Wow.... Just wow that almost brought a tear to my eye, your channel is honestly an inspiration for a young guy like myself. Especially being so multi faceted, those kids are lucky to have a dad like you congrats man!
I felt a pang in my heart as I watched this come together. True artistry.
The subjects covered in this woodworking website *TopFineWoodworking. Com* varies from wood types to tool types and uses. A few other subjects range from the various kinds of wood along with their distinct levels of difficulty when it comes to managing them. If you are still a beginner in wood working, then you will find this book very beneficial.
WOW BRO! I'm very new to wood working. You are truly GIFTED! This video literally made me a lil emotional--THANK YOU for sharing!
ive been working wood on and off for 15 years and this brought a tear to my eye. I hear you on the emotional part. Ive been building up my collection of hand tools because i have discovered that i get much more satisfaction from things i make with my hands than stuff i use machines to do. Mostly inspired by this channel.
fakiirification n
Simply beautiful! Loved the quote at the beginning and got a lump in my throat with the words said at the end. Having 2 boys of my own your words took me by surprise and got a lil choked up myself thinking about being able to have them around my shop (in its beginning stage) and being able to pass something like this down to them and pass on my knowledge!
Thank you!
I had the same feeling.
That, my friend, is a work of art!
Amazing workmanship, your joinery skills are unbelievable.
My gosh....almost every video you have causes an emotional response in my heart brother. I’m new to woodworking and have built some fairly basic stuff in my home. Me and my boy have decided to take this project on. We are forever grateful for your content.
Amazing, simply AMAZING work. I feel the same way about my own profession, dentistry. But I have to tell you, I'm having some issues with my TMJoint now because I've had to put my jaw back on, after picking it up off of the floor.
I watched some of your early videos awhile back and I had to reserve judgement on whether you were just another frustrated hippie kook or were you the real thing?? You have more than proven your worth with this project. Even at such a condensed speed of construction, I could see the pride, the attention to detail, and the thought that went into making each and every cut, join, and finishing touch in a series of separate works of art all contributing to the final mosaic that you call the Samurai Workbench.
It would not have bothered me one bit to be able to watch that entire project from the measuring of the first board to the last stroke of the finish onto the last support in real time video. I am old and humble enough to admit that there were moments when you were adjusting something or taking a hair off of a tenon by hand, that I had to fight back the tears. I felt the emotion that was there in your actions as you made a minor adjustment to a fitting and your reflexes when that fitting slid together as planned.
Do you realize that, when an entire project has the hand of the master upon it from start to finish, it reflects all of the balance, the blending of species of wood to form the whole, and I almost was embarrassed to see that square mortising chisel used where a hand chisel should have had the responsibility of making those cuts. It was almost like someone spliced a piece of another video into an otherwise perfect representation of the tools used and the knowledge and skills needed to do what you did with that bench.
You will do great things in the woodworking world, Grasshopper ... :-), I would love to be there when you reach my age and see what you have done with your skills. It would be a highlight in my life to witness the results of such dedication. You are to be commended on your excellent start on a career that will have no bounds but those in your own mind and body as you challenge yourself to move ever higher in your education and training.
Thanks Framer Guy. It's nice to hear from a kindred spirit.
I built an outfeed workbench with an mdf top. I love the material as a
work surface. My question to you is did you put a finish on mdf? Anyway
impressive video.
where did you see mdf??? That's not even wood....
you sir, are a master. inspiring and admirational. i especially liked the look on your friends face when you fit the top at 6:45
There is no MDF. Its just a troll trying to get you to another site to buy plans. I wish these idiots would stop trying to leach off of others. Especially ones as talented as the Samurai
A work of art & craftsmanship. Inspiring.
In our country (I am a Pole) they used to say "Masterpiece".
Watching what you create (without flattery) is a real pleasure.
Truly functional, but also an incredible piece of art. Just fantastic!
@Lucas Here are some great woodworking plans if you're interested: HootWood. com
You are an artist young man, this video was well done (besides the actual bench crafting) music was on point, time lapse sync was excellent, overall great editing. It was also nice to see the family. Keep up the superb work! Thank you very much for sharing.
This was most impressive. My hat is off to you. Beautiful! This is by far the best bench I've seen produced . It's guys like you that make me go back in the shop everyday.
Beautiful words at the end, my dad was a carpenter I'm a carpenter and I am still seeing things at my mum's home long after my dad has passed that take me right back to being a child, I have a 2 year old boy now and can only wish him the same amazing memories I had growing up and it seems your boys have too. Great work one the bench and great video.
so beautiful.... it's propably the most beautiful workbench i ever saw.
+The Samurai Carpenter came back to watch it again. third time already. i'm starting my workbanch next week, but it will be made with spruce i have left from my house building. after watching your project i decided to use joints like yours. with that little wedges. so it will be like test workbanch to praktice and sometimes later I will make something like this.
good luck and best wishes from Ukraine;)
I purchased the plans and video tutorial for this bench. I would call myself a detail oriented novis wood worker. If you take your time and follow his direction you will be a better craftsman after the build. I wont say I haven't scratched my head a few hundred times, but he walks you through the steps quite well. Good Job my man!!!! Money well spent, Im glad it went to you!
Thanks brother. Send me some pics when it is finished.
Hey guys - awesome stuff. Have searched the comments but can't find, how long do you think you spent building this and what do you think the material cost were at the end of the day?
Good on you. If I find the brass to do this, most every step would be a first.
Hitechredneck hi there how long it took you get the bench done and how much did it cost after its all finished
What was your total cost?
Hey Jesse, Thanks a lot for posting this video, your skills are amazing, and it takes a lot of work to record, and edit everything to share with us.... I have no words to describe how astonished I've got to see the whole process... I don't have the skill, nor the tools to make something even close to your bench, but it was very inspirational for me anyways.... THE MOST beautiful workbench I've ever seen!!! ;-)
It's been 4 years since I first watched this video, yet it still inspires me! The quote at the beginning has become my favourite now. Thank you, Samurai.
What a great bench. The details are amazing.
Wow! Over one million views for a wood working channel. Mr. "Samurai" should be congratulated.
Great job!
By the way, that quote is by Louis Nizer from Between You and Me, Beechurst Press, 1948. It gets misattributed to Francis of Assisi all the time.
“A man who works with his hands is a laborer.
A man who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman.
A man who works with his hands and his head and his heart is an artist."
-- Louis Nizer, 1904-1994
What a thing of beauty. I am in the process of designing my life's workbench for my shop. You have given me so much to think about.
I would be afraid to use it. It would end up in my dining room. Beautiful!
Can't believe that 622 jealous people gave it a thumbs down. Geish!
update sept 8th, 2019, 633 jealous people.
Good news, the dislikes aren't about the jealousy:) it's just that they no longer wish to receive associated videos in the newsfeed:)
And the vid can get its promotion based on the activity in any case:) btw, the more comments, the better
Rafael Daulet h
Thumbs down peoples are "Down from Birth" 😊😊😊
Understand👍👍
Awsome can you build it for me?
That is one of the most beautiful workbenches Ive seen.
Absolutely remarkable! built with love. I'm sure your kids will adore that forever.
I enjoyed every second , it took me back to the first time I walked in to a wood working shop 1971 and became a cabinet maker in my station I had a old wood workers bench . Always dreaming of having my own cabinet shop. My dream came through in 1984 until 1917 when I retired . It all happened in Chicago . (I truly miss my SHOP)
Superb! I would appreciate a video demonstrating your sharpening technique. That ribbon coming off your hand plane was impressive.
+Chris Windsor I have two videos on sharpening. Check my video page.
+The Samurai Carpenter Thanks! I should have looked there first; sorry.
I can't believe there's still rageous people to dislike this work... Damn, it's a piece of art not a workbench !
i saw your video for .. 6. times? you are unveleiable. respect man
He really is a Samurai
Watching a video about making a bench isn't supposed to be so emotional. Love your passion and wish I had your skill.
I don't know if I'm inspired or demoralized (only because of my lack of skills). This bench is a piece of art and I can only dream of having the skills one day of making such a beautiful piece.
I bet there's a cowboy carpenter somewhere in Japan
i wish to like your comment but i need to leave it at 69
actually it looks like he's in cananda.
Long Ho Hockey carpenter just doesn't have the same ring to it. lol
Maple Leaf Carpenter.
^Sorry Carpenter
Absolutely Beautiful! Inspiration for me to build one myself. Any chance that you would be able to go through it and explain its features that it has and their purpose?
+Sean Miller Link at the end has a 3 hour video.
+Sean Miller Features video will be up on Friday.
+The Samurai Carpenter Thank you Sir. Looking forward to it
The Samurai Carpenter s
Your level of skill is rivaled by none. This is so beautifully done.
why would anyone dislike this video. 24 crazy people.
+Oldboysctv They're mostly made up of all the trolls I have blocked from commenting on my channel. But I got a good laugh from one guy who said he disliked because I let my kids play in the shop with me and play with my drills. Said I was a bad father....I feel sorry for his kids!LOL!
+The Samurai Carpenter I have to say I feel sorry for the guys kids. Dad had me by his side showing me how to do things and letting me play with and use his tools.. that led me to find I love working with wood... flash forward many years and having bought a home in California with a nice garage and porch, and a need for some new furniture, and a wife who likes crafts style furniture..I'm putting a shop together and then I get to build her a settle.. or a craft style couch.. cheers and thanks for the awesome videos. Your kids are very lucky to have you for their dad.
+The Samurai Carpenter you sir are probly one of the best father out ther
+The Samurai Carpenter I don't know, I kind of agree with the guy. I mean, you're kids look like they're small enough to fit up a standard chimney. A good father would have them out earning their keep instead of nurturing them and showing them love and attention.
+Rico S Sorry, forgot to say, amazing video. When I get the time, I'll absolutely get the plans just to watch the 3 hour tutorial.
That was amazing...but when you made the sliding jointed clamp box I was yelling "no fucking way!" out loud in my kitchen!
Lael Piehl I agree. The tapered dovetail joint thingy was something else. Never mind the functionality.
Lael Piehl that's my favorite part too!
Wayyyyyyyyyy slick
Glad I wasn't the only one.
"What wizardry is this?!?"
Coolest workbench what I've seen
I agree here. I love your projects, which are done with accuracy and love! please continue your channel.
This is one of the Videos that made me get into Woodworking years ago. Still love this and i´m happy to come back watching this once in a while. You´re a Legend Jesse! 🙂
The Picasso of Carpentry.Truly talented.
This is the only movie I've sat through in the last five years. Mate, Hollywood !
...a beautiful video of your art. Your kids will treasure this! : )
That is a work of art. If it was mine it would be in my living room!
Just found this vid as I search the net for ideas on a work bench. Your words are beautiful at the end. But you missed one thing. Your bench belongs in an art gallery, to show the next generation what can be achieved by patience, aptitude, skill and believing in yourself... that truly was a piece of art you created.....
Wow this holds together better than my life right now.
Mine too.. and longer
That guy is one of my favorites wood masters. His work is so perfect
That looks so good you almost don't wanna work on it and scratch it up!
+sc0tte1 My first thoughts, exactly!
It’s no wonder a work of art, and can’t attain this perfection without such passion. Anyone who hires you for a contract should be gifted. I throughly enjoyed watching.
Beautiful bench, great video.
A beautiful piece of art! Love it!
I just lost my father and inherited all of his woodworking tools including his bench. I can promise you when that day comes your children will remember your voice.
You made a real great work man, and Im sure It will be a great reminder for your kids of never giving up and beeing persistant as you wrote... Never lose hope...Thank you for sharing!
This is borderline porn, sir. This may be against UA-cams guidelines.
Beautiful.
How ture that is👍
Well said man.
Borderline? Defo crosses the line! Be still, my fluttering heart!!!
No it can't be, at no point did I want to fast forward to the GOOD part?? I can't watch porn like that
If this was woodworking "porn", then 8:54 would be the "money shot".
OMG,, TBH NIce words at the end of the vid, my father was a really good carpenter ,,, i never spent enouh time with him so i didnt learn anything, now that hes gonne im very interested in learning, this vid is a piece of art made by a great artist. congratulations.
Beautiful work, beautiful thoughts. Thank you.
I’m only seeing this 6 years after it was made as an engineer your craftsmanship is awesome love the precision from the UK
I don't have words... Wonderful!
I must have watched this video 50 times. One day I'll buy your plans and build it myself. Badly.
That's work of art.
Some day the world may end but that workbench will remain intact, exquisite craftmanship.
You're not a woodworker, you're an artist.
woodworkers are artists.
Well, that made me feel inadequate as a man. Beautiful job.
+Work hahahahahaaha......
What are the names of the songs in this?
Cant believe its been 8 years ago and still love watching this craftsmanship at its best
Great quote at the beginning. Here’s another I’ve always liked: “Not every successful man is a good father. But every good father is a successful man.”
Amen.
Just sent that quote to a couple of young fathers who will be great fathers.
👍👍
That bench is more beautiful than any girl at my school.
that's very sad news.
Time to change schools...or get yourself new glasses...
beer will help that
I guess you must turn to the boys then..
Put this bench in a museum and build another one out of crappy 2x4s. 😂
I wouldn’t be able to do actual work on this beauty.
I built a deck on Bainbridge Island many years ago . the client wanted old growth clear red cedar for the deck boards . When the lumber arrived , my partner and i just stared at it and then i said , “ i don’t think i can cut it, it’s too nice”. so we sat for about thirty minutes contemplating the impending destruction of those boards.
In the late 80"s I built some redwood benches and planter boxes for a concrete patio. Know exactly how you felt.
Beautiful craftsmanship from a man who believes if it's not done as a labor of love and with a craftsman's eye to detail, it shouldn't be done. I know your children will learn so many valuable traits, lessons, and have memories of their time spent with you.
Inspiring!
I am a professional woodworker, and I am lost for words...
A true master at work, to watch is worth its weight in gold...absolutely delightful
I love that man whatever. I am a non-believer with Muslim background. When I was young I read a book about that guy and I just loved him. I don't care what was his belief or what. He was a very nice human-being. People would ask what does all these non-sense have to do with this video. It's quite relevant dear Sirs and Madams. I am talking about Francis of Assisi 0:10
Such a great word he has said.
There is no relevance to your comment whatsoever, +mogbaba. Who gives a hoot about your religion-oriented ideas???
This channel is about fine woodworking, sir. Education, indoctrination ect in Muslim countries and families has nothing to do with it.
Chris Is
I am sure you did not read my comment at all. Typical western biased people, you just saw "Muslim" and begin to type against me. Take a glass of cold water, relax and read my comment. In fact, I have predicted people like you there. After you have read and understood, comeback and tell me if my comment is off topic.
+mogbaba You can be damn sure I read your comment, and I simply detest people bringing up religious shit where it doesn't matter at all.
And don't you judge or patronize me, my level of education and general knowledge are above par and so is my intelligence. I really doubt whether you know or understand more about Francesco d'Assisi than I do.
"Typical western biased people, you just saw "Muslim" and begin to type against me."
If someone should leave this is you Mr. intelligent. The first picture of this video after name of the channel is a word by Francis of Assisi. So, I am quite on topic. Because you have not comprehended I have to make you understand it right. I am a non-believer, got it? In my comment I utter love for a great personality, whatever religion he might have. Giving information about my state of philosophical view and my background was in fact for people like you to understand that we humans can love each other without categorizing each other. I didn't promote any religious view there. I acknowledged the channel owner's choice of the comment. In addition I Relive Assisi's word is quite on topic and fits very well the great work The Samurai Carpenter has done. appreciating his word is in accord with the video. As I understood, you are a person with very law level of tolerance and unable to understand the nice word of Assisi. At the end I have a friendly advice for you: You are not the owner of this channel and have absolutely no right to dictate your dark views on other people and no one to ask other people to leave this channel. You can do it in your own channel.
+ mogbaba Why thanks for the compliment. I’ll admit being intelligent can be a burden ;-).
I will not leave, and neither should you, I never asked you to do so and you’re very right in pointing out this is not my channel (which I was aware of all the time, but that’s OK), please just spare us your comments as specified before.
I will not bother you either about my origins, the way my grandparents practised their religious beliefs and the fact my grandfather was a clergyman.
That’s my point - it doesn’t matter in any way. So why bring it up?
I’m a non-believer too, a term which isn’t even accurate - my mind and and heart are void of any religious indoctrinations. And people consider me a very decent, caring man. Not that I care.
And what do you mean by “people like you”?? Are you categorizing me?
However, I sincerely hope once you’ll be proven right in your hope people can love each other, ‘cause the news tells me they can’t and won’t. And my education tells me they never have - humankind is always at war with itself, and religion or other convictions have always been at the center of it.
If you wish to inform me on the the lighter sides of Islam and other dangers to world peace, I’d love to read that on your own channel.
This channel is not a forum for discussions like this, +mogbaba. This is about a brilliant woodworker, from a brilliant woodworker.
If you want to continue this discussion, take it elsewhere.
This is fuckin beautiful
Incredible. Love it
Incredible piece of art. A true dyeing skill, working with ones hands. The utmost attention to the smallest of details and the care of every strike of the mallet and push of a chisel. The look on the young mans face as the top finally laid in place was golden. The patience with a calm mind set is the only way to achieve such beauty.
you f**ked up... that is way too nice to be in the workshop. I would probably put it in my kitchen or living room.
