To be clear I want to scratch the new floor. That is the goal.
Jk Ill ad feet pads. Relax.
ahhh! I see.
You do you. It's your floor. Stools look great!
I had to delete my comment after I read this...I honestly wasn't sure if you really wanted the scarring look or not!
I assumed your first project in the leather studio was to make little ”L” profile leather socks, copper riveted to the feet☺
Great job on the stools!
I think that holding it incorrectly while moving it could cause harm, so I suggested flogging
The fact that Diresta is the name many hold as the diy UA-camr beacon, it still impresses me that it clearly hasn't gone to your head. Your humility makes your videos as homey and approachable as the first ones. Thank you sir for the consistency and entertainment
While I appreciate the traditional Diresta-style silent movie, I really appreciate the insights into the mental process as Jimmy is learning a new skill.
ALL the cool tools. There is nothing like making shop items, be they stools, shelves,drawers or even cord hangers. You get the satisfaction that YOU made it and learn along the way. Well done Jimmy!
your shop is the dream of every single kid in this world!
I’ve been around long enough to remember when you were so reluctant to learn to use digital fabrication techniques and now you can make those robots dance! Nice work Jim 🤘🏻
☺️
That leatherworking studio is dreamy!
Gotta' love the paper "stool-sample." 😅
Love the early access with Patreon! Really love following you through the whole process from design concept to execution.
❤🙏🏼🙏🏼
Kudos for patreon
I agree, watching this develop on Patreon was insightful.
I do not think that I ever missed a thumbs up on any video I've seen of yours. You are the man Jimmy boy..
Hi Jimmy. Nice build on the stools for the leather shop. That plasma table must be like magic. Imagine how difficult it would be to make all the pieces needed for the stools without it. My dad was a sheet metal mechanic his whole life. He could make things like your stools with hand tools. I never could come even close. Pretty amazing how far metal fabrication has come.
You can make a smokeless fire pit using this technique. I think a diresta style one could be really cool. The idea there is that fresh air through a double wall gets to the top of the flame and ignites the smoke. 🔥 💨🌋
Jimmy, an idea for welding the parts together - spot welds. They do it with stuff from battery cells to car parts. Could work for new iterations
Always a pleasure watching your work. I hope you put something on the bottom of the legs so they don’t damage those beautiful wood floors.
those stools are the same design we had in metal shop in the late 80's. i remember having to lap weld sheet metal with oxy/acet before getting to learn the stick welder
Love the retro look of those stools Jimmy!
Great video jimmy . I’m taking notes
Jody! Thank you!
Consider: Your wood floors will get abused by the edges of the legs. Adding pads to the bottom would prevent it. Bo.
I followed the run up of the design through Patreon… nice to see the finished design in the leather studio (which is looking sharp as well!)… cheers Jimmy!
Definitely very cool seeing all the iteration
Great build man! And great video. Loved all the explanations.
Love the rivets and the design. Makes me think of the old shipyards.
Best way to do rivets is an air hammer. With the correct cupped end in the hammer you hold a flat hand anvil on the rear and go to town. Heat all the rivets up in the furnance and go to town with them all at once.
Sturdy design but those legs need soft tips or some design element that spreads and cushions the load, especially on a fine timber floor
That’s my only thought, too. Might even be able to just weld a nut in the bottom corner and put some threaded slides.
yeah.. Also, I would rather have the legs lap under the top.. Or at the very least, round over those sharp points at the top of the legs.. I'd hat3 to slide off of the seat and that sharp corner hook your pants or worse. It's a minor change.. but I bet it will get someone eventually. :)
You have so many wonderful toys! I hit 70, and am down sizing to an extent. Still love to play though, and love learning new ideas and techniques. Love your posts.
72 and still improvin!
Come winter, you might want to think about adding either a plywood or leather pad to the tops of them stools .... for comfort.
Beautiful finished product. Really stunning in its simplicity.
Haha dang Diresta I want one. My work area is real small and could definitely use a small stool. Love your thinking on projects. You just go after it and I see myself when I watch you work. Hopefully I’ll get as good as you. Thank you for the videos. Also I like when you talk in your videos more than your shop sound videos. If that means anything.
❤thank you!
Jimmy, as always great content, to make that bead roller easier to use, get rid of the hand crank and install a small steering wheel from an old riding lawnmower. I found a 12" wheel from a Wheel Horse mower. Works great.
Great idea 💡
Love your creativeness and craftsmanship!
That brake is a monster! I really need to build a bead roller!
These are amazing, I always enjoy watching you do stuff like this... videos where you learn a new skill and tool and simplify a build process. Thank you Diresta
Love watching you build stuff. Thanks for sharing.
Love the stools! What a beautiful setting and a dedicated spot for your leatherwork..
Color and the sheen after the sandblasting looks so cool. I am glad you kept it like that
Love watching you work with Steel
Nice job Jimmy, what a brake🎉
I'm constantly amazed and inspired at how you can use some pretty heavy-duty machinery to create art - functional art, but, yeah. Art. Those stools are classic! Thank you!
Thanks Jimmy. Great video. True to your style . Love love
I was surprised you put the legs on the outside at the top, part of me thought you’d weld up the corners of the seat and linish the bead, then fix the legs inside, reducing the chance of catching yourself on the edges… but I can’t argue with the outcome, always the artist. Thank you for sharing.
I wanted the details to show ❤
Super nice space for your leather work! Thanks Jimmy! 😊
Jimmy, get yourself a large cabinet blaster. If you have space for it, you won't regret that purchase. Much cleaner and works much better than those blast pots.
Great look with those rivets. Thanks for the progress breakdown.
Beautiful work. Was fun to see these develop on Patreon.
Awesome work! Such an amazing way to start the week!
Fantastic stools Jimmy.. you never fail to give me inspiration 🙌 cheers Rob
Full safety suit, love it😂
Jimmy! A great way to start a beautiful Sunday -another inspiring project. I'll be getting off my buttox soon to do some Making myself.
Thank you for sharing & informing! Very nice Build!!!
So very cool always so amazing watching you work Sir Thanks for sharing
Incredible workmanship, I remember watching you way back in the basement workshop getting things done. Now you have a massive workshop very cool 👌🏻
Fabulous steam punk look! Nice how you explain the software, wiring & use of the tools especially the wheel bender that adds so much to the look. UV from flashes have caused many uk dentists to need cataract surgery after viewing uv dental resin curing, (now they use blue light) so I always wear uv protection while plasma cutting. Thanks for sharing!
When i dont have the time or need to make something useful myself, i get my dopamine makers hit by watching your videos instead. The stools are cool and very useful for any setting (home or workshop. My dream tool list is getting ever longer, darn.
Jimmy, you can always sink the rivets in backwards, use a cup on the back to keep it located, then use a concave punch on the outside to form the head. This gives a ton more room to swing and helps the rivet sink tighter!
Your comments about the sand blaster being a big PITA struck a chord with me but we all march on thanks for the video🤗😎🤗😎
Ive seen a lot of metal breaks but yours is by far the coolest.
Super exciting to see the leather studio coming together. Beautiful chairs!
They look great. Fun project
What an awesome shop! You can make anything you want.
Last time i watched this channel is a few years back when there was no commentary and mostly sped up footage. I have to say i really like this style with you explaining your steps and all, keep it up!
I am growing up 😅😅 thank you! 🙏🏼
Spot welding these stools would make the fabrication speed up if you'd produce them of course. Nice video!
This is great, thanks for all of the detailed explanation on the cad.
Killer build and video, Jimmy!
Terrific work Jimmy & that Chicago bending machine is totally awesome! 👍👍🔨🔨
Great film. Love how the material defines the process. Nice job on the bead roller. The stools are fabulous! Mahalo for sharing! : )
Thank you so much for sharing this! You had me hook, line and sinker watching the evolution process on Patreon. Someday I have to shake your hand and say thanks for everything.
Thank you David ❤
It’s been a while
Awesome content
Great project
Love all the hard work
Absolutely love this
Excellent work Jimmy
Hello mister Jimmy beautifully made good job well done
От проекта до готового изделия...... Великолепная работа!
Dude! The rivets really make it pop, they're beautiful. That break is a monster, great job using the bead roller, especially by hand like that, especially with thicker steel, great job.
Really great thanks as always Jimmy. Those are nice! Thanks for walking us through the illustrator / cutter progress I found that interesting and other makers I watch dont do that.
Love this - brilliant!
I love Jimmy’s toy shops, what great spaces, and just love the way you get in there and make.
I’m still using pen and paper and elbow , nevertheless you are such a great inspiration for so many people.
The leather studio space is looking awesome.
That was really impressive to watch dude. The combination of experience and gung-ho attitude is really inspiring 🤙
Amazing work, Jimmy! Fantastic looking stools! 😃
But it made me remember something. My parents finished the construction of our farm house around 35 years ago. At the time they ordered some pine stools, that they painted blue. And they're still there! In one piece and I think they never painted them again!
So... Imagine those metal ones! 😂
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
The ole EEE. Experience, Expertise, Equipment
Y'all are pretty handy with that software, pard! Nice vid JD. Hope all's well, best to you and yours!

Man, that leather shop is gonna be gorgeous.
Those really look sharp, Jimmy. Hope you build more.
I'm so envious of your future leather studio! Very excited to see the work of art that will be the studio. Obviously I am a big leather guy. So extra excited about future leather videos. But would love to see videos about the studio build. And awesome work as always!
Those stools look great. Job well done.
Thanks for the info!
Nice job Jimmy 👍
I really liked the rivet technique and the sand blasted look is great man!!! Very Nice Jimmy! 🔥
Looks great 🎉
You could probably do a version of rust bluing to those chairs and get the patina started early and not have to sand blast them back to bare metal. You could also probably play with those faux color case hardening gels to get your signature DiResta logo on the sides using some sort of resist template.
Great work!
Jimmy did you sign the stool???? I think this is the first project that you don’t sign….🙃🙃🙃😱😱😱😵💫😵💫😭😭😭😭whyyy?? 🤣🤣 greetings from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷!! Much love!! Love your work!! Thanks for everything jimmy
Nice work!
So cool!
Love this format!! You’ve changed 😂 and It is always for the better!!!
Really nice job my friend.
So much great philosophy in this
The ultimate craftsman!!!
Awesome job Jimmy!!
tHanks for the extra details. Fun video
Great addition to the leather studio. I’m sure you are looking forward to getting in there and going to school.
good call on the raw/petina finish. I think they'll age beautifully
They look awesome, Jimmy. Watching the process on Patreon was insightful. To see how a craftsman develops through trial and error gives us confidence in our own process. I like the idea of "bespoke" for the leather shop too. Very cool 😎
Thank you brother ❤
Love it! All media is subject to you!
