  • I've been trying a few different ways of making furniture out of smaller pieces of scrap. I'm not sure if this method is more, or less work than traditional construction, but it was a lot of fun.

    Broadcast TV died when Epic UpCycling started putting out videos - it's way more satisfying to watch a master-craftsman build something from scraps than to watch a bunch of people act.

      If only that were true and the majority of the people in the world enjoyed watching this instead of garbage reality tv, it would be a much better world.

    Normally, most people turn their scrap wood into chopping boards. But this is next level! Well done Jason 👍

    I KNEW you were gonna make two of 'em, I just KNEW it. And with a snap of the fingers.....TWO!! I laughed, and laughed. Thanks for the entertainment, Jason. You keep making 'em, and I'll keep watching 'em.

    I love watching you work in your shop. You remind me so much of my grandfather, he was a builder also. And if I was quiet, I could sit and watch him, and I would watch him for hours.
    I wanted to thank you for helping me to remember a part of my childhood. It just brings me wonderful memories of my grandfather.
    I can’t wait to see what you’re going to make next and looking into your shop with all the different cabinets you made. It’s beautiful.

    To answer your musings of whether or not this process was more work versus other methods, might I remind you of the pieces you have built where you meticulously shape HUNDREDS OF SMALL PIECES to glue together, stain, etc. Your patience is amazing and incredibly inspiring.
    Another fantastic piece. Thank you for sharing your process.

I click the THUMBS UP before I even begin to watch any of your videos because it's a sure thing I will really like whatever you make! I really enjoyed this A LOT! Great idea! If I saw these somewhere I'd not hesitate to buy them both! Just AWESOME!

  • @The_Modeling_Underdog
    @The_Modeling_Underdog 17 днів тому +2

    Epic UpCycling, indeed.
    While watching the assembly of the particle boards, I thought "What's he up to?" at first. Then it reminded me of what - trying hard not to spoil new viewers here - them folks at the furniture shop across the street use for some large-quantity projects. Very clever way to ensure matching measurements.
    As always, it's a true pleasure watching your videos. Well done, Jason.
    Cheers.

    Your creativity is, as always inspiring. Once again I am in awe. Also, to see your workshop in the background and realise I have watched you create every one of them over the years. You could give guided tours and you would have queues of people wanting to see "the master craftsman" and your amazing creations.
    Yes, I am unashamedly addicted to your videos and hope to see many, many more.

    I was actually about to start doing what my wife considers an important job when I saw this appear. I felt very pleased with myself for figuring out what the melamine boards were for almost instantly. Obviously there was no way they were going to be part of the final product! It's always mind blowing to think of the work behind the finger snap duplication!!

    So, yes all your projects are masterfully done.
    So, whether you use scrap or mahogany, I would expect any project to be completed exceptional.
    I'll keep my fingers crossed that you never ask a viewer for donations!
