- Hello guys! In this video im making a wooden infinity mineshaft style coffee table. Costs well under £100 to make and a fairly enjoyable build.
1 way mirror film

I don't ask for anything and enjoy creating fun things and sharing it with you all! However if you're feeling generous and would like to buy me a coffee then here's my link

For the lamp, if you had cut it in half and pressed it right up against the mirror, you could have doubled the depth effect by making the lamp appear to repeat half as often.
The light was the only thing I disliked...so half a light mounted against the mirror at the bottom would create half the repetition?
@@kornfed81 Yes, exactly. Though he would of course have half the space to fit a bulb inside, so the electronics would probably need to be modified too.
Genius.
there would still be a noticable borderline cutting across the lamp, you can kinda see the 'sections' where the mirror starts in the video with the different shades. to ease the gap we could install the lamp horizontally.
@@bi_zha Take the cage bit from the discarded half, maybe sand it down a bit and throw it where it touches the glass. Might be able to hide the seam by pretending it is part of the fixture.
you need this in the corner of the room with one level with the floor, and another one in the ceiling, with a ladder on the wall in-between the two. That way it looks like a infinite shaft going up and down that you can access!
You sir are a genious
YES
The perfect next step (excuse the pun). Good thinking.
Even just having it inset level with the floor with an open trapdoor over it would be pretty cool.
This is how you get into the backrooms
That's by far the best infinity mirror idea I've ever seen, extremely cool!
“I definitely need to buy more clamps…” said every woodworker ever.
🤣🤣 oh yes !
I often make my own.
Haha thats true
@@andrewallason4530 I'll have to make some soon 👍got too many projects and a new puppy 😎
That is indeed very true
I think this is the best possible implementation of an infinity mirror. Very inspiring.
I'd love to hide an underground entrance this way, it's perfect.
"Oh it looks like a mine shaft, ha har!" ->Slides table to reveal mine shaft. -> :0
I appreciate the direct, immediate doing of the thing, with a minimum of unrelated discourse, self-promotion, etc. you don't waste our time. Well done.
I'm glad this showed up in my recommended list. Such an awesome project. Going to make this myself. Can finally have my "secret underground bunker".
Build a hatch cover over this shaft and you are done. Maybe add a sign saying "do not enter".
@@gorillaau that's not a bad idea. Hinged on the top, with a trigger to turn the LED on when opened. Rigged up to a LED controller to add a flicker once in while.
@@_Ganjatobi There you go. Perhaps a padlock, inadvertently left unlocked.
Oh, the possibilities here.
Some genius commenters here. Nice ideas!
A phenomena that has always fascinated me as a child sitting in a barber chair, you know, 2 large mirrors facing each other, you sitting at an angle and there it was. 🤔Still amazes me to this day.
A similar idea would be a train tunnel for a kids room . Mounted vertically on the wall.
An idea: Put a small speaker inside and occasionally make it sound like some miners are banging around "down there."
who has the audacity to dislike this amazing creation
Only people who are either jealous, or they can't do it and it makes them envious of others so much, that they get jealous of others. I think them kind of people do stuff like that, or they think they are better than others. Who wouldn't like infinity anything?

They just don't want to get shafted 🤷♂️

Finally a good use of the infinity mirror thing, not just dumb LED strips. Awesome
trippiest thing i have seen all year in 2022. I think it's the the way my brain works, this type of thing resonates with me, Kudos!
i think of this table everyday
Stairway (ladder) to heaven? Oh wait, it goes down, moving along... Nicely done, I now have you to thank for putting yet one more project on my bucket list.
I love this project. Really good idea having a mineshaft. With regard to the router, you could have made your own fence for it. Thin piece of hardboard screwed to the base with the shiny side down and then fix a small strip of wood to one side to give you the size gap you need.
That is sooooo cooool to install this on a boat.👍👍👍
A friend recommend this video. She knows I have a great appreciation for wood working! She sat with me as I watched the video. She patiently waited without spoiling the end. Throughout the video, I'm commenting on how Wiz embodies the qualities she used to describe him. The end result appears on screen and I lose my mind! Magnificent work, Wiz. Thank you, Tig.
Thank you this means a lot
Now this is how you impress and entertain your coffee guests.
Excellent
Tip. If short on clamps, use a straight timber to cover the entire distance then distribute your clamps evenly throughout
I'm a very creative person, but I would have NEVER thought of this! What an original and unique idea! The fact that you didn't obsess over making it look perfect only adds to the rustic quality. EXCELLENT JOB!!
Your chisels might not be sharp but your imagination and movitation are double sharp young feller. Bloody well done.
Reminds me of one of my favorite episodes of the old cartoon "Dungeons and Dragons" where the heroes got a treasure chest that, when opened, would lead to one of many places when you went inside. Cool project!
I remember that episode, I still have it in a VHS tape that I recorded from the TV on Satuday mornings cartoons, loved the Shadow Demon back then.
Great project. As an alternative to routing the top mirror rebate on the almost finished table, you could have easily created the rebate on your table saw at the cutting stage. This would be quicker, easier and provide razor sharp edges if done carefully. Thanks for posting.
Very nice. Now I know how to build a miniature structure with an interior that goes on forever.
I'm definitely going to build one of these. I worked in a gold mine in my 20s. It didn't look like this but it's still super cool.
The imperfect reflection of the mirrors really works well to add to the distance effect. Well done.
That’s the coolest thing I’ve seen all week
I absolutely love this
Very cool project. To solve the router problem at the end, you could use your table saw to dado the notch at the beginning prior to assembly.
Omg. I am speechless. This is amazing. What a cool idea beautifully executed.
Incredibly clever idea and excellent execution. Well done.
Your decision making skills remind me of me. It's like watching me woodwork. I appreciate how much detail you leave in on this front.
Excellent project ! Excellent effects and results ! This is definitely on my list of “to build” ! Good video- a brilliant Thumbs Up !
coolest thing i seen in years furniture wise .... great stuff mate
love the switch shortcut
Thanks for this top- notch video. My wife & I are looking forward to seeing more.
Brilliant. I love how you worked out a method to get the result you wanted with what you had at hand.
This is my kinda table~! Love it.
Easily one of the coolest applications of the infinity mirror idea, bravo!
Black tea does the work or even coffee. I dyed my son's mummy bandage costume with those and it worked a treat.
Thats looks BRILLIANT well done! I used to make similar things YEARS ago when I was on the road as a DJ an 'infinity light box' very big in the 80's! always baffles many people who kept looking around the back of the boxes 😅🤣😂🤣😅👍
Looks like someone was playing minecraft and then suddenly just apeared in you room so cool
That's fan-bloody-tastic, would love one of these!
That actuality looks COOL. I'm gonna make one. It's a good conversation piece
Great Illusion
Amazing. Using the 2 way mirror for an infinity effect is genius.
Looks good. Few things are as satisfying as creating something amazing from mundane pieces
Clever idea! I'd like one of these to mess with my 6 y.o. grandson. He'd be so anxious to climb down into our "gold mine".
Great video. I like that you include the problem solving portions of the build. I run into this thought process on all projects and it is part of what I enjoy most. Thanks for the info!
That is the coolest coffee table I've ever seen.
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT - VERY WELL DONE SIR!!!
You are absolutely genuine and about as real as it gets brother. Thanks for the build, the ideas and the video. I'm definitely gonna turn one of these out here in the big Country of Texas....lol...
Super nice project!
the best video to this date on infinity mirror.
This is sick looking I have a gaming PC and the case has a infinity mirror in the front it really does look like magic and looks like I can stick my arm half way inside the PC case.
Nice to find a British dude!!
Most of these types of vids are American.
I used to run a business building furniture from recycled pallets
The algorithm chose you to recommend when it spied on me and heard me talking about infinity mirrors! Congrats!
That's way cool. I'm going to do this in my dinning room floor I think. I have an old floor furnace I'm taking out and it's the perfect size
I gotta say, that's the best infinity mirror project I've ever seen! Nice Job.
That's really cool! I loved it! ❤
I love the idea and what would be great is to make a round stone well version for the garden ! 👍👍
Or a horizontal Mineshaft with minecart tracks 🙂
Pretty cool vid! Creative use for the infinity mirror. I believe all the comments and viewers agree ;)
on the up side i managed to watch the whole video. on the down side don't quit your day job. overall as long as you find your bliss who cares what others think.
Very Cool Coffee Table! Great Work! 👍
I have an ottoman with a hinged lid on top. This would be great for that ottoman before the grandkids they have stairs going down a tunnel!
"Its not as good as I wanted it to be" On the contrary, its awesome, it looks rough, like a mineshaft, I think (no pun intended), that you nailed it
First video of yours I have watched, gotta love the UA-cam algorithm. New subscriber here.
A great piece of work,I will definitely be having a crack at one of these.However after reading some of the negative comments it would be interesting to see if those who made them could enlighten us by showing us their superior workmanship... Just a thought ...
That's one of the coolest projects that I've seen.
Great job!
"My chiselling skills are not good..." Makes a masterpiece. I can definitely see myself making one of these soon. Great video.
Holy crap dude, this is incredible! I want one so badly.
thanks for the idea! infinity mirror coffee table just went on my to do list! A round stone well would be really cool with this technique!
That’s so cool! Great work. 🤘🏻
GREAT JOB , LOVE IT
Very creative, I just purchased an LED Infinity coffee table which brought me here seeking inspiration for what’s possible, or what others have done within this type of illusionary aspect to everyday furniture through modern concepts and contemporary design. As ever I am continually blown away by how hobbyists and practitioners of a certain craft push the domain past that of what is mass produced by corporate outfits, even making the process seem oddly achievable for the rest of us despite the obvious, or before that little contentious voice reminds us that the last time we faced a woodwork project was decades ago in middle school, with mixed results! Inspiring all the same which is what’s most important and optimal notwithstanding optimistic, and so I appreciate the sharing of your craftsmanship and project should you see this. Many thanks from an infinite novice in woodwork with grandiose ideas.
Thank you very much for your kind words! Something like this is completely doable.. im just an idiot in a shed im no professional if you can make a box with a mirror and a one way mirror you're sorted! Give it a go! Whats the worse that could happen...
Fantastic work.
Love it. Rather simple. Lots of possibilities to modify the motif.
If you use a front surface mirror it will eliminate the small gap you see where things meet the glass of the mirror in the bottom. Looks great keep up the good work!
thats far out coolest thing such great job Wiz's
Grazie per questo tuo video così dettagliato e con i sottotitoli in italiano...🙏🤟🏼 è stato piacevole ascoltarti parlare senza capirti...🤣🤣😜 ho visto il tuo video insieme a mia moglie, e adesso pretende da me un pozzo infinito🤣
You're welcome
Love this infinity mirror table I want one
Better get building then lol
When I was a kid my dad made something, and to create an aging effect, he burned the wood surface with a gas torch and following h the grain, using a stiff wire brush, brushed the charred surface. Blackened and gouged, it had a patina that wasn’t attractive and new looking.
Something that might be worth trying. As it is, this is brilliant. I didn’t know how an infinity mirror was made was a cool thing to learn about.
This is gorgeous! I wanna climb right in!
Awesome work and very good effect.. Two things really:
1. The bottom mirror should have the mirror-layer (aluminium-vapoured onto the glass)) at the top of the glass, although a bit harder to find, this would improve the effect mainly the continuing of the ladder, now there are some seperations at the glass.
2. The conduit-bracket should be cut in half to improve the effect as well, fixing it tightly to the bottom mirror.
That my friend is amazingly good, Im definitely going to be making my own as soon as I get time. Definitely treat yourself to a grooving bit for the router mate, that will make your life easier 😊 when you where making the wood stain as was just about to write use tea bags and then you mentioned it☕😂 I always use old tea bags to age wood works great and smells better then rotten metal 😂 once again mate excellent.
Thanks man.. ahh grooving bits!! I knew there was an easier way.... mind was blank!
@@WizsWoodwork with a bearing on 😊
How much money is it?
Wow! That's trippy! The ladder that never ever ends.
i used to work in a glass factory ! With short angle you can make this piece even subtler
Great project!
Really cool project
I enjoyed this video and I can totally relate to the tool deficit.
love it lots of fun cheers
Great. Good work there!
Excellent work. I want one.
This could've saved Colin Furze a lot of digging!! 😂
Definitely going to try this one day. Amazing, thanks for showing us. 😁
You beat me to exactly the same comment by 1 hour!
🤣🤣🤣
NEAT! I say that as both a woodworker and a mining engineer. 👍👍
wow.....great job man. thanks for sharing
I'm sure I'm probably repeating someone way further down the comment list but using apple cider vinegar makes a huge difference. Left for about five days then run through a coffee filter it makes a stain that turns pine into a rich reddish antique brown and oak a really nice black that with a top finish looks great.
I can give this a thumbs-up, for sure.
