      Yes! Perfect timing, I am about to start the adventure of making this exact crib for our coming baby. Muito obrigado

    Man, this brings me back to building the crib for our first little dude! Definitely a very similar design, so many parts to fit and sand. That project took forever!

    • @GetHandsDirty
      @GetHandsDirty  3 роки тому +23

      I actually watched your video a few times during the build to figure out some parts of the process! 😆 It was an excellent build! And yeah, I totally underestimated the amount of time sanding and even finishing…

    Hi Cristiana, at the end of the video you said 'really proud of the piece' and so you should be, the cot-bed was beautiful and made with such loving care. About 17 years ago I made a similar one in maple, but no clouds, and it is now 'cuddling' it's 5th child. You are a true artisan.

    It is always a pleasure to watch your videos, the information and commentary is excellent. The crib/toddler bed is really cute, you took so much care to make it as safe as possible. I did have to laugh about the finish being safe enough in case a child chews on it. Yes they will!!!

  • @AlisonGresik

    @peaceblossom8 3 роки тому +22

    Wow. Amazing build as always! :) Also, the offcuts around 5:50 would make a great follow-up present as building blocks once the baby is old enough for that :) just round over the edges, maybe stain some of them... I had similar ones as a kid and loved them, each one was unique and I gave them names and all :D

  • @AntonietaMega
    @AntonietaMega 3 роки тому +3

    Nice interlude @5:32 Yes glue ups are a good time to panic. I find doing a dry run with all your clamps etc. is helpful. Great job on the crib, I hope many of your new family and friends children get to grow up in it.

  • @Erik_The_Viking
    @Erik_The_Viking 3 роки тому +5

    That's a wonderful project! I like how you used an empty box so the pieces can drop in there from the table saw. I also get a bit nervous with glue-ups, especially with big ones. What I do is plan ahead and have all of the clamps and other items in place so when I start the glue up I can complete it without panicking.

    5:32 that is the most ASMRy thing I've ever actually experienced ever. There are so many channels that say they do it and I don't get feel anything. But this? Dang, I almost couldn't handle or take it. Was overwhelmed by the tingly ticklyness of it.

    Those off-cut cubes ... mmm, so nice. Glue-up: I did my very first EVER glue-up this afternoon. It's my first workbench and I was doing the legs. I checked, checked and checked again that I was about to glue the right parts together, then just went go, go, go!! All good. 😋
    I love this clean design and your precision and focus on accuracy. You are right to be proud of this project - a very lucky baby!

    The crib looks lovely and it was a pleasure to watch it being made. One thing concerns me, though. Remembering what our daughter got up to almost as soon as she could stand, I can see an inquisitive little explorer using the cloud as a ladder to escape over the side with unfortunate consequences.

    • @eves1313

  • @jimthesoundman8641
    @jimthesoundman8641 3 роки тому

    9:01 You can always use hide glue, it has a longer working time, that way you don't have to rush during glue-ups. Hide glue is truly amazing stuff, you should try it if you haven't. Plus it's the one glue that is reversible, you can remove it with a heat gun if you make a mistake.

  • @FearsomeWarrior
    @FearsomeWarrior 3 роки тому

    Beautiful design and looks super safe. I think the modern simplicity and wood joinery will keep it solid and baby proof.
    The cribs from stores with iterative design for safety I’d reason it’s because they’re not starting simple and solid. They’re designing flexibility for packing and shipping to sell or other reasons for features. Meh, shower thoughts so don’t take any of that like I’m a baby crib engineer with any experience. Just based on observations.
