David, I’ve been watching your channel and listening to the podcast for years, and I just want to say, I absolutely love the direction that you’re taking with your videos. You’re clearly having a blast, and it’s contagious. Keep it up bud!!
Agree! I too has been a follower on podcast and yt for years and really like the new content starting from the go cart times! 👍 You go and be you and do your thing David, and keep on enjoying it!
Was going to comment but Nag Fab said exactly what I was going to say! So dido to what he said. I'm beyond excited to see where you take things from here!
Great video! So many great moments. I haven’t been to Spencers in 100 years. Dude! “I stabbed myself”. Adding the chamfer on the joint is the exact advice my artist son just gave me on a box project where I was struggling with the lid to box joint.
Hi Dave, long time listener, first time caller. Actually, I've been watching since the Drunken Woodworker days. Just wanted to say this is my favorite video that you've made. Love the project. Laughed a lot watching and rewatching the accident in the intro. Love that you allow your direction and vision on the project to morph as you progress. All just good stuff. Ok, bye.
Fantastic man, I love the finished product and the journey, and if I’m ever impatient for a lava lamp to get going I’ll resist the urge to grab the torch!
4:38 so a pro tip from a chick who isn’t a “planner”. Just tape it together. You can still get a sense of how to proceed but without the “oh snap that’s backwards moment” that might happen. I honestly thought that you were gonna use a wood burner to enhance the gap. You just leveled up the college dorm!! I love the piece. It is just cool.
Best start to your videos.. EVER... lol. And to see the explanation for why it happened. Good ol' impatience. Love it. Totally rad end results! Thanks for your blood and sweat towards this project!
This one took many unexpected turns, and I love it! Completely unnecessary project, but hey, we need more of that in our lives, don't we? So many fun things in this video. And I learned a new safety tip! I'll file "always cut towards yourself" right after "always start the drill before screwing". Really enjoying your tone lately. It's a lot of fun! Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful Work! I love that you show the whole process when something doesn’t go right and you figure out a way to solve it or change the original idea!
Fantastic project. Can’t believe you came at the magheads like that. I for one am a big fan of magnets but it’s your project so you are free to “screw it up” however you please. That being said, this turned out great.
gotta say, when you first mentioned the air dry clay and the lava flow i was like uhhhhhhh, but seeing the finished product it came together pretty well! Pretty interesting piece
When I was a kid my lava lamp fell and broke onto shag carpet. Because the wax was hot, it immediately bonded into the shag. What a mess! I wasn’t sure where you were going with this but the addition of a lamp on top is pretty cool. I’m not so sure about the clay but hey man we all do our thing!
I love it... for a moment I think that lamp shade needs to be twice the size, but then lava part would loose its place... love the orange in the circles
This light thing is ugly as $h*t. But this series is absolutely a gem. This is what making is really about. Dave keep it up. Absolutely love it the content. Cheers brother.
Love the shirt!!! Sneaky. I almost didn’t notice it. I was just watching the zoom and waiting for the song and then, nope it’s on the shirt. Nice editing!
“Don’t try this at home... I’m a professionally trained UA-camr...” Lol! This was a fun project! The end product was really cool and it seemed like you had fun with it. I love how you just kept rolling with the punches, whether it was the router taking a bite out of the workpiece, or stabbing yourself in the chest... lol I’m glad you’re ok!
I knew that you made music for your videos but something about noticing the labeling of the music in this video made me realize that I really love the sonic landscape you create in your videos. It made me realize that your music is definitely part of why I love your videos and I really enjoy how using many of the same clips has almost created a sonic branding of your videos.
One of us has changed. Either you got a lot better at this or I got my head out of my ass. Great vid(s) lately. Love the music as well. You made me laugh out loud several times. Thanks a ton.
Yo Dave I just want to let you know if you see a dip in the watch time analytics right at about the 6-minute mark it was the trypophobia squad ducking out. Love you man I'll catch you in the next one 🤙
I absolutely love this piece! Every single detail. Especially the lava drips though. Also, I thought we were about to hear a Don Henley remake when 'Dirty Laundry' popped up as the song title.
Honestly, I hate it. Everything about it. And I’m a big lava lamp fan. Perhaps that’s why. But this video is art. It’s just unbelievably chaotic, the pace is all over the place, you seem like you might have dropped a few shrooms and just thrown every bonkers idea at it. To hilarious consequences. Dave, as ever, we salute you. You’re a national treasure.
David be a superstar and forget about the magnets and use velcro on both sides. That's one serious knife wound and suddenly with the love of your brother, it became a gunshot wound, nothing like brotherly love and the intent to kill!!!. As always guy's 💯% 👍 🇬🇧.
Would it be possible. Too make wooden base,, have heating lamp inside the wooden box. with 2 holes on top to heat 2 lava lamps with just one bulb or would it be just too hot . for the wood
You’re killing it - almost literally. There’s something for everyone in this one.. Sand people, magnet people, safety police, trolls, and dare I say Life Aquatic people? 😂
Here's a whole playlist of me turning cheap things into priceless fine furniture

I completely agree!
I've never seen someone build so much tension during a 5 second sanding segment.... "is he gonna play it? is he!? CMON!?"
Why do I suddenly feel like visiting a Mellow Mushroom for pizza tonight? Love the artistic direction (pivots?) in this project.
‘Stabbed in the place that you live’ gosh David! You definitely give all you have. Hoping your wound heals fast. Nice lamp!
That was a fun one. Love the lava pouring out.
This series of turning thrift/everyday items into custom pieces is amazing! I can see the algorithm taking this and it getting big!
the result looks sooooo coool
Great video! So many great moments. I haven’t been to Spencers in 100 years. Dude! “I stabbed myself”. Adding the chamfer on the joint is the exact advice my artist son just gave me on a box project where I was struggling with the lid to box joint.
I was really surprised Spencers is still in business. How?

♥️
That absolute monstrosity looks like it belong as a set piece in a John Waters movie - and I mean that in the best way possible. Well done. I love it
It would be amazing to redo this project on the lathe, then cut in in half with the bandsaw, insert the lava lamp, and re-glue.
The shirt reveal is my new favorite "SAND" cut.
I applaud your artistry and your opposition to magnets!
Immediately purchased the shirt as soon as you said it was available. I’m telling my wife it is my birthday present.
This is rad!!!!
Fantastic man, I love the finished product and the journey, and if I’m ever impatient for a lava lamp to get going I’ll resist the urge to grab the torch!
So weird... I love it!
Omg that is absolutely beautiful. I love it. I'm a lava lamp collector and this is amazing
That antique walnut is SO nice!
Cool idea, hope the heat doesn’t become an issue. Maybe keep us updated in a future video?

You just leveled up the college dorm!! I love the piece. It is just cool.
I just love how the lava light turned out. Hope ur chest is alright and love the new t-shirts.

Love that you´ve got Fear and Loathing rolling while you work :D Order in some golf shoes!
Beautiful Work! I love that you show the whole process when something doesn’t go right and you figure out a way to solve it or change the original idea!
This was such an odd project, totally not something you see every day and I love it! This takes the cake for my favorite of yours!
Honestly, at first I thought "He's building a lava lamp coffin but then you made it work. NICE!
Wow this one is easily in my top 5 for your videos I really love how this thing looked as well as the whole vibe of the video, as always amazing work!
I now have a "Ohrwurm". Thanks man! 🎶🎶🎶 Chop up the base, chop up the base 🎶🎶🎶
That turned out so groovy, far out man! Seriously, that turned out great!
I love the new direction - not just the fun content, but that more of your personality is showing through. Be yourself, it's appealing. Great work!
That guttural scream on the router going into a hole is me on every guitar when I forget I've drilled a hole for jack socket. I know that pain.
That turned out great David! Wonderful work
OMG!! That shirt!!! Take my money!!!!!
Fantastic project. Can’t believe you came at the magheads like that. I for one am a big fan of magnets but it’s your project so you are free to “screw it up” however you please. That being said, this turned out great.
That turned out AWESOME!
This looks so cool. Great work
Heck yeah! Super cool transformation, every detail adds just the little extra.
Dave you look like you are having so much fun with this build and it comes through your video. Love to see it
gotta say, when you first mentioned the air dry clay and the lava flow i was like uhhhhhhh, but seeing the finished product it came together pretty well! Pretty interesting piece
Strong work! Love the bleeps. Lol😂
When I was a kid my lava lamp fell and broke onto shag carpet. Because the wax was hot, it immediately bonded into the shag. What a mess! I wasn’t sure where you were going with this but the addition of a lamp on top is pretty cool. I’m not so sure about the clay but hey man we all do our thing!
you should have started with, welcome to break something :)
Great! Depending on price, I’d definitely buy this!
Absolutely gorgeous!
Sheesh! Final product looks great!
I love it... for a moment I think that lamp shade needs to be twice the size, but then lava part would loose its place... love the orange in the circles
Now that's an incredible Lava Lamp David! Thanks for all of the laughs along the way!
😂😂👍👍
I think this is your best video
Turned out pretty sweet
I think this is your best piece so far. Absolutely love it. Keep up the good work
Def my favorite of all your projects so far. Love your vids man!
The workbench is LAVA!~!
It was a fun journey. Glad you always cut towards yourself. It's the safest way.
This light thing is ugly as $h*t. But this series is absolutely a gem. This is what making is really about. Dave keep it up. Absolutely love it the content. Cheers brother.
I love the new shirts! And this was an excellent project!
Can tell a lot of work went into this one. Great stuff!
That turned out awesome!
This piece is glorious!
Love the shirt!!! Sneaky. I almost didn’t notice it. I was just watching the zoom and waiting for the song and then, nope it’s on the shirt. Nice editing!
Fellow REM enjoyer, nice!
“Don’t try this at home... I’m a professionally trained UA-camr...” Lol!
This was a fun project! The end product was really cool and it seemed like you had fun with it.
I love how you just kept rolling with the punches, whether it was the router taking a bite out of the workpiece, or stabbing yourself in the chest... lol I’m glad you’re ok!
That tshirt! Hell yeah
I have to admit I giggled a little when you put that round base on... I'm immature, I know...
The chaotic good of this project was just an enjoyable viewing experience. Loving these types of projects
Thanks for this video, David! I got a good laugh out of this. Love the new shirt!
Looks amazing Dave!!
This was a fun, awesome build!
Good to see what Steve Zissou is up to these days.
That was a dope build! Drippin!
Great video. Thanks for sharing.

as a former Spencer's employee, this triggered some busted-lava-lamp memories that are stuck in my brain lol
5:33 Yes, I get it 😁
Awesome project, David! Austin Powers would have liked this one! Groovy lava lamp, baby, yeah!
Chop Up the Bass is an instant banger.
One of us has changed. Either you got a lot better at this or I got my head out of my ass. Great vid(s) lately. Love the music as well. You made me laugh out loud several times. Thanks a ton.
Funky, dude. I dig it.
Fantastic shirt!
Yo Dave I just want to let you know if you see a dip in the watch time analytics right at about the 6-minute mark it was the trypophobia squad ducking out. Love you man I'll catch you in the next one 🤙
this would be a great challenge!
Such an awesome video. Great music. Fantastic project! Pure Fun! Loving it Dave ❤
I absolutely love this piece! Every single detail. Especially the lava drips though.
Also, I thought we were about to hear a Don Henley remake when 'Dirty Laundry' popped up as the song title.
Ha! Thanks Sarah!

Magnet hater! lol Great video.
Can you invert it and unscrew the base to avoid spilling the contents?
This was awesome!
Love it, David. Really cool idea a great execution. I laughed out loud at least 3x, which is a huge plus. Thanks for the vid!
Wow David. That is awesome you're vision came thru excellently on this project.
The "lets do everything backwards" series
Nice outcome 😉
Magnet lover here. But I also really enjoy screwing.
Dude, it's great, but you should have used magnets. 😁
Great video look great and fun humor.
Awesome lamp …… talk more on the podcast, that southern fella talks too much and you don’t talk enough 😂😂👍👍
David be a superstar and forget about the magnets and use velcro on both sides. That's one serious knife wound and suddenly with the love of your brother, it became a gunshot wound, nothing like brotherly love and the intent to kill!!!. As always guy's 💯% 👍 🇬🇧.

FANtastic!
That's pretty cool.
I thought for sure in the intro you were gonna say "Welcome to Break Something"
