    It was time to up the production on Pro Home Cooks, so I’ve busted out of my apartment and got myself an official kitchen studio. The only issue is, I first have to build the entire thing myself! Well, I wouldn’t call it much of an issue, since building was my first passion before I found the wonderful world of cooking.
    Since I’ve got some incredible projects planned for the studio space, I wanted to bring you in on the process over the next few weeks of how I transform this big white box into something special. My first project isn’t kitchen related, but it’s extremely important to the foundation of this channel! Without an efficient work station I won’t be getting much editing done for these videos, so I’ve teamed up with @fully to create a completely custom standing desk. All of the products featured on this desk are listed below! Check out fully.com to take your work space to the next level! #standingdesk #KitchenStudio #fullypartner

    So cool that you're a maker! I've recently started making stuff, woodworking and such, and since then I've definitely made a strong connection between making stuff in a workshop and cooking. In the end they both are taking raw materials and modifying and combining them into a finished product that didn't exist before and it now exists thanks to your work and creativity.

  • @randommcranderson5155
    @randommcranderson5155 5 років тому +6

    I would recommend a piece of trimmed scrap leather between the monitor arm and the desk - you're likely to mar the surface finish over time otherwise.
    Also, I wouldn't call that staining because no stain was involved. Sealing would be a better term.

    Few more additions to consider (if you haven't already):
    Satechi Thunderbolt-3 dock
    Drop CTRL keyboard
    Logitech g502 lightspeed mouse (yes, gaming mouse, but trust me you won't regret it).
    With the dock, you can have a truly one cable solution. All peripherals, including monitor AND power adapter, hooked up to the dock. Just one little cable between the laptop and the dock. Boom!
    Cheers.

I also love that you incorporated a quick and healthy meal idea in there. A lot of us are super busy (or at least go through seasons of it) and appreciate those kinds of meal ideas.

  • @sid-thephysicskid

    That's not stain though, that's varnish.. a protective film for wood. It has no pigment.

    • @pododododoehoh3550
      @pododododoehoh3550 4 роки тому +1

      You can get stain varnish, in fact in my opinion its much easier to get a good result with it as its not absorbed the discoloration is more consistent.

    Nice! My own woodwork is not nearly that caliber, but I'm working on the first step toward getting there: accepting that my work will be imperfect. Of course, I have higher priority on other handicrafts too, but I'm almost finished with a clothesline I've been meaning to install for years now! I look forward to seeing this series continue!

    I really like how you mixed cooking with making in this video. It reminds me a little of Alex's French Guy Cooking videos but with a different twist. I know you two have collaborated in the past, but it would be awesome to see collaboration in future that mixes cooking and making. You two are the only ones I've seen do this on UA-cam and it's super cool. Keep up the great work and congrats on the new space!

    Congrats on that desk: great Job!
    I completely get your point about adjusting life to circumstances: when I was truck driving in the early 9ties, there was hardly time to cook fresh every day. Not after 13hrs, beeing away from home. But on sundays, I would bake a cake. So I had a fantastic piece of cake, when getting home during the week. Should I mention only 27 different apple cakes in my repertoire, back then?
    Keep up the good work!
