    You are an artist! In the current world of expensiveness, any work that doesn’t doesn’t empower general public to stand on their own legs isn’t worth seeing. You are an enabler!!

    Bought the plans and going to do the build for a grandson. Brad, everything you do is absolutely top notch - video quality, voice overs, lighting, camera work, enthusiasm, build blog, quality of plans, experience of buying your plans. Like I said everything you touch is great - you are now one of my top 5 most respected content providers.

    I have purchased many plans online. This is the first set of plans that went together without a hitch. Every measurement was exact and the desk is coming along fine. I just acquired some black walnut that will be used for the top. It has to acclimate in my shop for awhile. Well worth the money.

  • @rjcarlson72

    I bought your plans for this desk about a year ago and just had the opportunity to build it. I built two! One for my grandson and one for my granddaughter. It went rather smoothly, although I did have a couple hiccups along the way. I was able to find a local mill works shop to get my cherry. After my glue up of the tops I took them back and had them sand them on their 36” sander for $20.00. The desks turned out great and the kids love them. Perfect for the at home schooling. Thanks for the awesome plans. Love your channel!

    Brad, you do such a good job on these videos--from filming to editing to explaining what you are doing. I'm the guy that built your outdoor couches and used the 6x6's for the supports, we still love them and use them all the time. Thanks for your great work.

  • @mszypkowski
    @mszypkowski 4 роки тому +3

    I like how you show all the steps to making these things and explain most of them, and leave the rest to the imagination so that we can personalise our pieces. Also much nicer to watch 10-15 minute videos instead of 2 hour long ones :p

    The best way to trim edge banding is get a 13$ hand plane from home depot and take the blade out. Use that. Run it flat with the surface and makes it awesome. I use it so much I weld a bolt onto the top as a handle.
