never would have thought a video about plywood would touch me so deeply to the core. now i feel like ive taken it for granted. i love the stuff, and always have a couple extra 2'x4' sheets around my workshop for spontaneous projects.
How does this incredible masterpiece of a video only have a couple hundred thousand views after 10 years? I'm ranking this as one of the most under-rated and highly educational videos that I've seen on interwebs. I followed Casey years ago and have been making my way through Van's video collection. I now feel like I've found the next level - the grand master -and now see my previously watched videos with a clean pair of eyes, and a 2:1 ratio.
Because anyone who works with plywood knows all this basic stuff already and people who don’t could care less. This seems like a introductory segment for a documentary or tv episode. Kind of a let down at the end of the video
Found the beauty of plywood when I built my first work bench and then was it that I learned the types of woods. And Plywood is my lover now. Bench came out beautiful.
Torx bits are practically life-changing. As a kid I remember hating how often I would strip out the heads of screws from shitty technique but torx is so much harder to mess up.
Love the segment on 'cam-out'. For safety sake, I would lose the tie when anywhere near the table saw. Actually, I would lose the tie the minute I enter the studio.
This is great, but my problem is that I don't know how to operate doors. Also, can you do a video on how to charge my cordless drill? I hope to learn how to sweep.
If anyone wants to avoid cam out then avoid Philips head screws. From what I've read they were designed to cam out to avoid over tightening. Use Robertson (square) or torx. I can hang my impact driver from the ceiling from a Robertson screw. That's not likely to happen with even the best fitting Philips.
3/4 " $75 a sheet at Home Depot which is not even 3/4....it's 23/32.. You don't have a riving knife on your table saw making it very dangerous for a kickback event, or a small piece of plywood to ride up over the blade pulling your hand into it. Philips bits by original design are made to cam out. They were used for metals. Their use in woodworking is an anachronism. Use GRK T-25 Torx screws. They almost never cam out.
Me too. And I strongly recommend AvE, a friend of Mr. Sachs, who has an outrageously funny but educational product engineering review & teardown YT channel.
Interesting video, and good stuff for beginners. I too love plywood, though it sure seems to be getting expensive these days! I also like the driving power of the Robertson (square) head over Phillips, but few hardware stores carry the square head. The only thing I would have added about Phillip head drivers is that worn bits won't properly grab the screw either. Anyway, my 2 cents. Thanks for shooting and posting this video!
@@PiLLO360 torx head driver bits have much better engagement with the screw head. They rarely slip and strip out the heads like a Phillips does. They also seem to slip much less that a Robertson (square) bit does....like whenever I'm doing Kreig pocket screws. Wish those things were Torx.

This showed up in the algorithm after years of woodworking. A love letter indeed, thank you to everyone involved and the trees whom we care for😘
Such an artistic way of educating people.
Thank you Tom
Happy 10 year anniversary. Still one of the best videos on the 'tubes.

I love this video just as much as I did when I watched it the first time!
In the wid. Cheers my friend

Bringing the sacred back into the work space. Definitely something magical about these videos :)
I wish everyone in the world could teach and be taught like this. Treasure.
How is this free to watch. What a work of art.
Proper definition of True Art.
OMG! What the impressive movie!
This is amazing
thank you for sharing your passion
The Philips head screw is the joker of all building materials.
Never in my life have I had a single thought about plywood. But here I am thanks to the almighty algorithm and it has been a journey.
I like how yt recommends this gem a good decade later, but i'm not mad. (torx > phillips)

didnt even realise it was that old, so ahead of its youtube time
"Should be aligned with the center of the Earth" is a gorgeous phrase.
why?
@@oghaki5097 a poetic way of saying ‘vertically’
What the hell, why is a video about plywood one of the nicest ive seen on youtube
I'm not sure why I watched this video. I really enjoyed it♥ Thank you.
Alignment with the center of the earth...in perfect posture.
Thank you!
I need a master like mr. Sach's, to become a better filmaker like the Neistats
+Franco Isa Hey Franco just do it, why not?
+Walkertongdee truee!
The first time I visited LA, I was amazed to be seeing the famous PLYWOOD sign
Thank you.
I want to make this exact same video for HDPE
Gr8 video!!very Van Neistat

How do you achieve the shiny, compacted plywood edge seen in so many of your plywood uses? Sanding? Burnishing? Poly?
thank you
8:10 holy shit. um i have something that needs fixing.
How come I've only just found this channel?!?!
I needed this knowledge and confidence with tools in my life. Many thanks ❤
this was the best
A lovely film
5:43 What is this , fight club?
Right?! It's appreciated, nonetheless.
wow I've never seen this before, I love it.. Happy new year!
Happy New Year
Spotted the Jean Prouve table at 2:59 😍
this deserves 10 million views
"You can feel it"
Is that @vanneistat I hear narrating around 6:43?
Always great innit.
now I know he would teach everything to Neistats to make a good movie.
That was not an orbital sander
Quarter sheet. Hence quartering the sand paper. A rare mistake for Sachs and Van.
Prevent cam-out? Use Torx-headed screws my friend.
We use torx exclusively in my shop, they will however, still cam out if proper screw driving technique is not employed.
Came here from Wintergatan. Anyone else?
"plywood doesnt spilt"
unless you screwing into the edge
unless you don't know how to handle it
Don’t we all split when pushed to the edge?
i was never interested in plywood in my life before but not gonna lie this video is f****ing captivating!
Beautiful
I love this video. Thank you.
I never knew others had the same passion for plywood as me! 😊
really looking forward to the tom sachs summer camp video about how to make a youtube video
Back in the days when you didn’t need to be a millionaire to afford plywood
For the first half of the video I thought it was well shot and when Van started talking all the shit and style choices just made sense
This is great, but my problem is that I don't know how to operate doors. Also, can you do a video on how to charge my cordless drill?
I hope to learn how to sweep.
I like your profile picture.

This was cool.
Great video
Gives me Wes Anderson vibes 👌🏽
Love it!!!!
haven't you guys uploaded this video like 3 times already?
Wonderful video. Sensuous.

FYI, this vid was made over a decade ago, hence anochronistic tendencies…
after minut 4 the video is superb
This is an Arthouse movie about the birth and journey of Ply Wood.
you're my hero
I never skip that pre drilling!!
Really cool video!
What's the reasoning for painting plywood before marking and cutting it?
Plywood is too much wood for OCD people, painting reduces its woody character.
anybody know how he adds those handwritten overlays?
I love the video
Me too. And I strongly recommend AvE, a friend of Mr. Sachs, who has an outrageously funny but educational product engineering review & teardown YT channel.
AvE turned out as an alt-right moron.
Idk how I got her but I'm glad I did
Bravo!!!

haha 8 years ago saying it was expensive. now its even crazier.
I am a time traveller come from 2022. BUY ALL THE PLYWOOD YOU CAN IN 2014 - NOW!
I hate Phillips with a passion. I go torx drive head screws and only resort to Phillips when there are no other options.
GRK fasteners are my go to...
@@qfudgedoggycan you explain why?
@@PiLLO360 torx head driver bits have much better engagement with the screw head. They rarely slip and strip out the heads like a Phillips does. They also seem to slip much less that a Robertson (square) bit does....like whenever I'm doing Kreig pocket screws. Wish those things were Torx.
Diablo blades are actually 7/64", not 1/8...just sayin.
You can still get camout if you use a standard philips driver with a JIS screw and vica verca
Avoiding camout has more to do with proper technique and focus than with the flavor of drive.
the blade must be raise only about a 1/16(or less if it possible) after the size of the wood you're cutting for safety reasons.
It's complicated, kickback has the highest morbidity compared to simple amputations.
My god this is brilliant film making
Absolutely Love This Video…! Very Well Done.
Actually a very useful video about the practicalities of working with plywood.

Its where I get all these wonderful techniques.
Poetry. The only realm of literature which causes you to learn things about plywood.
... I don't know either.
Late as usual. Best art film I've seen in a while. And...... the sweet, sweet sound of a PM66. I'll never not know that sound.
why measure?
Anyone know the name of the first song?
funny to see the "most replayed" section exposing all the coomers in yt 🤣
ok gotcha! that makes sense
This is very very artistic thanks for the lesson
I used to hate plywood. now I love her.
this video is fucking awesome
I don't understand what I saw, but I found it beautiful.
Fastest 10 minutes of my life. I kept thinking, "this is so Neistat"...and sure enough, it was.
So true just the angles
There are extra scenes in this one. :]
This is very tasty, thank you! (If it is possible could you add team and used music credits to info pls)
I feel like a thumbs up is not sufficient.
