This man was born with a bandsaw, his skills to this day still amaze me. My wood teacher at school still doesn't know how you do it. Thank you so much for all the videos Jimmy!
As much as I love your complex videos, its nice to see a simple clean build like this. I watched it twice just to see the G being cut out again.
I too liked watching the "g" being cut. The way the background shifted around was kind of mesmerizing.
+1 on the camera work for that letter. Really cool.
When cutting out Sigmund's signs, always be very careful to avoid Freudian slips.

Always impressed by your CNC hands when it comes to bandsaw...amazing!
I can't get over how effortless Diresta makes bandsaw cutting look.
Wow. When the "M" hit the painted back I was blown away by the power of advertising because I couldn't stop associating the whole project with M&M's due to the font and color scheme. Another fine video Jimmy
Your bandsaw skills still amaze me
I was thinking the same thing.....really amazingly mad band saw skills.
Jimmy you are the bandsaw king. Love your work mate
Got dizzy watching the bandsaw work. You are a master!! Keep'em coming. Bob
Okay, so about a week ago I was watching some videos on homesteading and your hatchet video kept coming up. I watched it and was torn betwesn two views. i thought "who is this joker who paints his name on everything, has an action figure and does unsafe things?". On the other hand, every video in general and that video in particular is a 15 minute masterclass. I don't create for a living, but I have learned on a basic level how to do every craft aside from working with fabric and architecture. I am telling you that I was blown away. Free-form machining using a bandsaw? Who the hell does that? Anyhow, I've now watched half your channel and almost all of your shows. Having actually watched them closely, I only have 1 safety issue left and it is on a machine that I'm not familiar with. I think that if an honest appraisal of what the actual risks are, your methods are as safe or safer. You are absolutely the real deal. I wanted to go into your line of work - I really did. But I spent my 20s in college and went into the medical field. In any case I cannot express how much I appreciate your ingenuity, your experience, your love of teaching and your warmth as a human being. I am motivated to create again - just got my forge working the other day. If you want some info on building gas forges, let me know - just dont put it in your NYC shop without some serious ventilation.
+Matthew Marting Thank you for the honest review!! and thank you for the support!! send me any good forge vids! looking to melt in crucible if you have any advise THANK YOU , jimmydiresta@mac.com
+jimmydiresta Okay Jimmy - I'll probably just end up sending you a 3 page PM. I'm pretty sure I will drown the comments section if I post it here.
+jimmydiresta You are the living retort to the Apple CEO who says they manufacture in China because Americans don't have the skills the make things anymore.
Amazing work on a band saw. Please, could you make a tips video on blade selection, tensioning, and setup of the band saw. Some basic tips on how to do what you do would be greatly appreciated.
even the big simple letters you make it look way easy,always love watching you work on the bandsaw
i gotta say man i am hooked on your youtube and anything i can watch with you in it. i am amazed by your creativity and skill. every time i watch your videos, whatever time it is, i get so inspired and restless i get up and go start tinkering with the small amount of tools i have in my apartment living room. it drives my roommate crazy cause our apartment living room turns into a shop haha. thanks so much for putting yourself out there for anyone to find.
Great look with simple materials... Nice work Jimmy an David !
It's kinda mesmerising to watch you cut letters on the bandsaw! Thanks.
I just got finished watching the aluminum handle axe video, I just can't believe the craftsmanship, all by hand, crazy talent
My 4 year old son loves watching your videos with me. Thanks Jimmy!
Jimmy your bandsaw game is off the fucking charts. It's not cutting....it's like sculpting.
Every sign video you do I am still amazed that you do your kerning by eye and nail it.
Jimmy, I'm a huge fan and I use all your tips and tricks when working with wood in tech class. I think all the wierd shaped scraps that come from the letters would look cool in all different colored stains and then placed in a countersunk table using a router and epoxy like the rat stool. Thanks for your videos, Blake
Excellent work as always guys. If only I could work that fast. Great cutting with that scroll saw.
I'm 99% sure Jimmy could perform surgery with that bandsaw.
Nice to see the sign being installed. Awesome work!
It is so fascinating to see how you are use the band saw, really nice job
Love your bandsaw work. you can tell how comfortable you are with it. great job, as always!
Nice big sign!Your business gets bigger , so much new people in the workshop . MDF is fun on the bandsaw. Grüße aus Germany!
So cool. Simple yet elegant.
Serious skills with all his power tools this guy! Love the videos Jimmy.
Awesome build, Jimmy & David (as always!) Also I really liked the camera angle from the MDF for some of the first bandsaw cuts. That was really cool. :D
Great video and great work as always. Loved the Gopro-on-MDF bandsaw shot.
keep up the good work. your videos have helped me hang shelves and given me lots of inspiration for future builds.
You make using a band saw look easy! Years of practice for that level of skill
notice how effortlessly he glides with the band saw. that only comes from years and years of working with it
Provavelmente hoje vocês devem fazer a instalação de outra forma. Mas pra facilitar a instalação de qualquer placa ou fachada de comércio em geral, pode ser utilizado suportes. É só fixar os suportes e em seguida colocar a placa e parafusar a placa no suporte. É bem simples e facilita muito, qualquer coisa é só me chamar. Adoro ver os vídeos de vocês, parabéns.
Nice work as always Jimmy, I could watch you cut things with a bandsaw in hi-speed for hours!
Love the shot from the letter as you were cutting it.
Beautiful sign Jimmy, wish they would have wanted the sign mounted horizontal rather than on its side.Best looking sign in the pretzel shop!!
I agree! it'd have been better on the horizontal but it's a beautiful sign!
Awesome work +jimmydiresta. As a designer, your work is such an inspiration. Keep it up!
Love the mounted Bandsaw cam!
I wanna' be able to use my band saw like a scroll saw. Jimmy D's the best.
That was awesome to see after hearing the podcast. Thank you!
That cross-cut to bandsaw shot was really neato.
I wasn't expecting it to be mounted sideways but it looks good like that
you're like a human xcarve with that band saw man great work
Always mesmerizing watching you cut letters on the band saw. have you ever thought to put a stopwatch or little clock on the band saw so we can get a feel for how long a letter takes in real time? thanks for the videos always enjoyable to watch.
Jimmy you are the BOSS ... Great Work as always..
Totally awsome as always. Nice shot with the camera on the g!
Beautiful work as always.
The camera work while working on G was beautiful, keeping it fresh!
@jimmydiresta I really like the way you alternate speeds with the shot It somehow makes it even more interesting! Props!
ive watched this guy make literally everything
You make my day...Thanks for sharing Jimmy!
It's always a pleasure to watch your videos!
Have a good day too great Man!
awesome shot of cutting out the G
well done , nice looking sign . Thank u for this instructional video.
Very cool .... Thanks for sharing !!! I could watch you cut letters on the bandsaw all day !!!
+WannaBeWood Smith you could what?
+Andrew Clark oviously "watch"
Yeah, oviously.
lol yes it is obvious, your brain may even make illusion for you. Open a dictionnary and find words that fit in the sentence ;)
one of the more simple videos,but cool none the less.
It's very hard to dislike your videos...nice work ✔DiResta
Great Sign Jimmy, Cheers, Harry
I know I'm about 6 months late, but I forgot to watch this vid. Missed it or something. You've got some crazy badass skills on the bandsaw bro!
seems that you get to do lots of installs dealing with masonry, if you have some spare money, get their cordless hammer drill. it's so worth the money, I've never regretted not having to drag a cord or use regular drill, the newer version accepts a vacuum for less lungs deposits.
Great video as always Jimmy! Not gonna lie, I got a little woozy riding the G through the band saw...lol
Fantastic work. Thanks for sharing!
You are an artisté with the bandsaw sir
Great as always. I love sundays :)
I can't help but laugh at the noise of your speed videos.
Awesome just perfect made
Digging your movies dude.. you've taught me loads.Thanks! Hey I had the thought that you'd save a heap on materials over the years if you kerned in the letter space or even just relayed the glyphs to suit your sheet size before printing, sticking on and cutting out. Still makes the same amount of sawdust but also means less bin emptying!
Why is it that I can watch you cut out pieces to a sign on a band saw and not get bored?
Good stuff jimmy! Thanks for sharing
Gonna swing by for a pretzel when we come down! Nice job guys
I don't know why I always leave the volume turned up when I watch these videos...
Quick question. Jimmy, I don't see you using an angle grinder much. Is there a reason? And why? Its my favorite tool. With a thin cutting disk you can do so much. Sparks fly everywhere and looks so cool in slow motion camera.
04:40 Damn jimmy those are some short shorts you have on ahahahha 😂
as always amazing work, a true inspiration
Bandsaw maestro!
Wow, cool shot at 1:02
your like an O.G. cnc on that bandsaw nice work Sir.
Damn Jimmy. I was in Grand Central for the first time in like 20 years last week. Had I known you had work there I would have made it a point to take a selfie in front of it.
Am I the only one who would wants a version of these videos where it's not sped up? So you actually have like an hour long building of it or whatever? :D
+Jordan O'C (Xenro66)
I take it you don't have children.
P.S. you can change the playback speed in the youtube setting menu.
I always enjoy seeing Willy in your vids. Somethimes i wonder how he's doing.
Super skills Jimmy!
Nice job! Did you add upat inserts to mount the sign on the wall? If not, what did you do?
Sweet build looks good
Very nice! Cheers! Daniel
those bandsaw skills!! you rock man! :)
Hey jimmy awesome build, that was so cool for giving that homeless guy some work.
Ps I have watched all of your shows and have seen that you also let him clean your truck for a little cash witch to me is so so so cool.
Respect Ben
Jimmy on the Job :-)
Even the simple things from you make me want to make !

Nice. You got some bandsaw skills man.
Thanks for sharing and taking the time to make this videos for us. Highly apprishiated. Always looking forward to your videos.
Jimmydiresta you are skilful man you inspired me so much I am now a joiners apprentice.
Jimmy, I'm in New York for vacations, tell me please where I can go see some woodworking tools and goods, back in my town, even though we are like 6 million people, we don't have a decent store!!
Always first class Jimmy. Great sign....for a new restaurant?
well played sir. well played
Always a pleasure watching what goes on in your shop. You're a demon on that bandsaw. If it's not too much to ask what is the name of the background color of the sign. Thanks again for all the videos!
+Brett Morgan Thank you , i think it is called classic brown , Benjamin Moore
Nice work, as always!
Great job Jimmy greetings from Venezuela
When I saw the fade-to-white at the end, I was expecting to see a squeaky clamp walk into view, then I remembered I'm watching Jimmy Diresta, not Frank Howarth.
could you tell the size of the covers and spine of the book? in the video: DiResta book binding, greetings from Mexico, I love your work.
Thanks for a great video again. It's funny. Just as I was saying to myself "I wonder where he printed out the template ?" Boom , in the description.
What would be the cost to have a CNC shop cut these? They would be dead-on accurate, no cut-ins through letters, and just need minor clean up on the inside angles. Maybe not as lovingly crafted as most of your projects, but could certainly save you some time.
it would be really cool if you placed a clock somewhere in the shot of the timelapse so we could see how much time it really takes you. at least im curious about that.
