    The piece, incredible. You squeezed more than 10% with those final details.
    The video, shooting, writing… you hit a difficult mark of being light, yet inspiring. Soldiering on through mistakes that would leave me in a series of spin cycles.
    And frankly, the fact you are not doing slab projects and demonstrating new skills and designs - this is the direction making needs to go.

    man i think mistakes are underrated in general. not only do they push your comfort zone to find creative alternatives, but they challenge the design in ways you would never do naturally.

    @aliciadietz4686 Рік тому

    Beautiful design, Shaun.
    For dry fitting with dominoes, this is a trick that works for me.. . Buy the domino sticks. Rip off the tapered edges to make them a little narrower. Run the stick through a drum sander or planer, taking off only a hair. This makes them just thinner than the mortise. Draw a sharpie line on the flat part of the stick. Now you can cut them to lengths as needed, and the sharpie indicates that these are your dry fit dominoes. I have a box of these of various lengths. They are much easier to remove when dry fitting. The cost of a few sticks has saved me hours of frustration.
    Thanks for your videos. I always enjoy watching your process.

    Here's my secret for pulling Domino's. Use a claw hammer and channel locks. Place the forks off the hammer on either side of the domino, grab the domino with the channel locks, and lever the hammer up. Easy as pie. Regular pliers would work, but the offset of the channel locks makes it easier.

    That's a really nice piece. It retro and modern all at the same time. And the brass inlay definitely looks amazing

    Hey Shaun, SO glad you are back making videos on your channel. As a woodworker who makes mistakes and follows the adage, it's how you fix the mistakes that makes the woodworker, have you thought about making your own dominos out of the wood that you're building with? Some walnut dominos might have spared you some serious agony. Also, I didn't see you lay down on top of it when you were done...
