      I think it was very well executed. At the same time, I lean against the idea of telling people how to make content. The part of UA-cam I love is the huge variety of personality and style I encounter. Do you man, your work stands on its own!

      On the contrary I love non-narrated videos where we are left to watch in awe, and in peace. e.g. old Diresta... I know I´m in the minority but then so´s my IQ 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

    I began my apprenticeship into carpentry when I was 16yrs old and am now 47yrs old. I'm always learning new and exciting ideas from beginners to masters, and without me having to say I'm certain you know where you fall. Thanks for these patterned plywood ideas, I'm certain I'll be using them for many years to come.

    I really liked the narration. Some folks narrate as they go, during the build, and that can get noisy. Plus adding narration after the build allows you to consider the more important details that are valuable to a viewer. Great jigs and a really nice, elegant, simple stool.

    Excellent video! Loved the narration and when you keep your mistakes and then explain how you fix it is a sign of a good teacher. This stool is beautiful and an art piece as well as practical. I've seen patterned wood layouts before but not with plywood. Very cool. I'm not usually one for music in a build video, but this was very nice, sort of the '40s, smoky lounge-like music. I wanted to wear all black with a black bursae hat with a long cigarette holder while watching, lol.

    At the age of nearly sixty three, my favorite pastime is learning from younger people. I was a cabinet maker and antique furniture restorer for the better part of my life (the other half was musician) in Canada, England, and thirty years in Paris, France. I congratulate you on this very original project- in fact I would be tempted to purchase it from you, because I have been looking for a high stool to play my enormous 45lb concert accordion on!! (except I need a foot rest, haha). I was really impressed by your tapered leg turning technique on the table saw; it was amazing there wasn't more tear out. Very, very fine project young man. Congratulations. I'll be back!

    Contrast with the statement while seated.
    Slightly distant, a little more hollow and echo.
    Studio overdub is better, and you are good at it.
