      If I learnt it from you though, I guess that means that you are my Manuel?! Ohhh wait a second! _That's_ why you have a *Spanish* Knuckleheads channel! 😂 You might be right about the weights, I had to edit out 45 seconds of heavy breathing after I lugged them up to bench height! Cheers Manuel! 😉 (also, super satisfying to hear that literally all of us are in the same boat. 😁)

    Mario that was awesome video mate and highlighted what I’m sure a lot of woodworkers go through, the doubt etc etc. I am not anywhere near your league of expertise mate but I reckon having anxiety doesn’t help when I try to build a project. I must come inside and talk to the wife over and over that I have stuffed it or did this or that and I’m out of my league, what was I thinking trying to build shit when I struggle hammering a nail in 😂😂😂 (joke). But she talks me down and I continue with the project…. Your cabinet is blood fantastic mate. Love your story! Cheers 🍻🍻🇦🇺🇦🇺

    Fear of failure - set the standard of success so high you know you’ll never achieve it, so why bother starting. Been struggling with that my whole adult life. Great subject to talk about! A friend who studied psychology once told me the “correct” term is Imposter Phenomenon.

    • @woodfather
      @woodfather  2 роки тому

      That's the real pain of it, it makes you think 'why bother', so you put off doing and learning things that you actually _are_ capable of. I used to have the ol' imposter phenomenon/syndrome bad in my 'real' job - worked through that a few years ago though and have never been happier at work - but more and more I've realised lately that it still affected me in my workshop. Crazy as the workshop stuff was supposed to just be for fun, no one is putting any pressure on me at all there! 😄

  • @samsboringchannel

    Hello mate. Lovely storage! Great entry, you've done an awesome job!
    As for imposter syndrome, everyone has suffered it at some point in life, I know I certainly have, I've probably talked myself into every job I've ever had without any idea of how I'll make it work!! Even now I'm putting myself out there on YT, whilst I make something and then a video, before I submit I've always got the internal monologue of "why would someone have any value in watching me mess something up!" But you know what, it's kind of nice letting yourself be vulnerable too, and putting yourself out there for public scrutiny! Cheers

    • @woodfather
      @woodfather  2 роки тому

      Cheers Sam, it's been on the todo list for so long, once I decided I was hosting a challenge, choosing the theme was fairly straight forward. Had to force myself into building it, but I learnt heaps, and confidence is now sky high, looking forward to the next build now! Going to work through my backlog of 'dream' builds. 😊

    I am the same. Have been a wood and metalworking youtube junkie for years now.
    I wanted to start a youtube channel 5 years ago but I have still not done it due to my inner voice. "what could you contribute with that have not been done", "you can not do it properly", "you can not even speak english well enough to be understood". So here I am 5 years later as just a viewer.
    Have subcribing to your channel for a looong time and I just want you to know that you are a woodworker and you make a difference!

    Now build another 4 years from now (5 years from when you built this) and include everything youve learned. I always like to see the growth and these tool chests always seem to really show it. You did good but like I always think to myself "you can always do better." Just remember to take notes and keep plugging away.

      I know exactly what you mean. My workbench I built 7-8 years ago, and I love it, and I'm super proud of it, and I would love to rebuild it using the skills I have now. The problem is, (just like the cabinet), it works so well, I don't really need to rebuild it. 😆 Maybe if the Woodfather channel is still going in 4 years, I'll gift this cabinet to a woodworker and build a new one!
