    Dear Sir,
    Demonstrating how to create this lovely piece makes the viewer realise how challenging it is to create what at first appears to be a simple piece of furniture; laborious in it's construction, being meticulous above all to ensure everything is perfectly synchronised in it's assembly. That pain staking patience required & determination to carry it through to the end really does yield a magnificent reward both to look at & more importantly to own & use. Working like days of old with modern hand tools is something seldom seen nowadays but refreshing to catch a glimpse of yesteryear. I dare say it must be quite relaxing for you in spite of the labour involved to head for your little haven & be at one with yourself. Yes Sir I most certainly took great delight in watching you creating a wonderful cabinet. Very well executed & a joy to look at. Kind regards.

      I love your comments and feedback!
      What would you like me to change in my video edit?
      Thanks!

      Dear Sir,
      Thank you very much for your courteous reply. What you do is not the norm on UA-cam & what's more you do it with great skill & passion. The way you present your video is very clear & concise; to my mind you need not change anything in the way it's presented. It's a far better one than my pitiful attempt. Kind regards.

      Dear Sir,
      Thank you once again for your hearted response. Surely I am not deserving of it rather your good self. After all you are the creator whereas I am just a spectator to it all. But I am glad my comments were not in vain; indeed it's a nice feeling to be appreciated. Kind regards.

    this is really nice, I love the fact that you did it all in handcut dovetails. The oak gives it a really nice look

    • @AndreaArzensek
      @AndreaArzensek  6 років тому

      Thank you Alain. I have no other choice but to hand cut them. But I really enjoyed the process. I like the oak too.

    My dad taught me to restore furniture when I was in my teens - all through them actually - as a means to keeping me out of trouble. It worked; I hv an enormous respect for craftsmanship such as yours. It’s great to see the fine work shown in your awesome dovetail joints. Looking forward to seeing part two, and the finished project. I suspect I’ll want it for my craft room! Thank you for sharing. 🌹Rosie of Oz🇦🇺

      Thank you Rosie. As you already know there is 2 part on my channel. I have many videos coming so you are welcome to subscribe. Greetings from Croatia

    Andrea, you have progressed most admirably as a craftsman. I have watched your videos from the begining, and I have always been impressed with your creativity. It has been a true joy to watch you develop as both a craftsman and a young man. You have every right to be very proud of your accomplishments. This latest project could easily be deemed your masterpiece.

      I really wanted to make something special, I think I might have accomplished that.
      I always try to make things the better way.

    Brilliant Andrea, I'm always amazed with the amount of precision and care you put into your work. I say make the videos as long as you want, there's no way you'll please everyone. - Clint

    • @AndreaArzensek
      @AndreaArzensek  6 років тому +1

      Hey Clint, thanks for the feedback.
      I know I can't please everyone nor I intend to. People who like my videos will watch, others will just skip and pass by.
      Anyhow, when I finish part two I'll make a shorter episode of the whole apothecary cabinet build, probably under 8 minutes total. Cheers

      Thank you Tom, part 2 will be the final one where I finish it. I don't like making separated videos of the same project but this was quite a big thing to edit (99,67 GB on 193 clips).

    great video as usual. is there a reason you jointed the boards with a hand plane instead of your jointer?
    thanks

    • @AndreaArzensek
      @AndreaArzensek  6 років тому

      Thank you Dave. Great eye there!
      I used a scrub plane to quickly remove twist from the board. Then it is easier to make the board flat on the jointer. Otherwise you need to balance the board on those two high spots. In my opinion it is also much faster because you would need to make many passes on the jointer to remove the twist.
      I didn’t explain this in the video as it was already getting long. Cheers 🍻

    • @AndreaArzensek
      @AndreaArzensek  6 років тому

      Another thing. My cheap planer has a flimsy fence that flexes so I rather joint the edges of the board to exact 90 degrees with a hand plane. It is a skill to develop, but quite worth it...until I get $2000+ jointer, that is.

    Beautiful piece! love the dovetails but I was surprised that you used plywood. I'm curious - what did you make this piece for? Tfs. Love your commentaries too.. very funny and cute... woodworking meditation.. lol.

    • @AndreaArzensek
      @AndreaArzensek  4 роки тому

      Thank you Mony!
      I used the plywood to eliminate the wood movement. I did this for tea storage but it can be used for anything. Thank you for the nice comment 😊

    So Apothekars are just drug dealers with fancy furniture?
    Nice fancy furniture btw.
    Why are dovetails so thin? The little triangle is almost zero thickness, would'nt it be stronger if it had a bit more meat?

    • @AndreaArzensek
      @AndreaArzensek  6 років тому +1

      haha, thanks Oto!
      Dovetails are thin because I like them that way and they would definitely be stronger if they were more meaty.
      But this is probably 9000x stronger than it has to be and I don't plan going over it with a truck.

  • @SatanicJamnic
    @SatanicJamnic 6 років тому +1

    Cool project and nice quality video BUT your editing is too slow. Shots are too long, you end up with 15 minutes video. I don't have time for this. Speed x 2 in action.

    • @bernieinsaudi
      @bernieinsaudi 6 років тому

      SatanicJamnic Disagree. It’s a nice paced video.

    • @bernieinsaudi
      @bernieinsaudi 6 років тому +1

      Maybe it’s because I’m an old guy!

    • @AndreaArzensek
      @AndreaArzensek  6 років тому

      I appreciate the feedback!
      This took me two months to build so I wanted longer format video. But I’ll see what other people feel about it and I may consider making shorter, one complete video. Cheers 🍻

    • @AndreaArzensek
      @AndreaArzensek  6 років тому

      Thank you Bernie. One cannot please everyone, but I need this kind of feedback.
      If it weren’t for you (my subscribers) I wouldn’t make these videos.
      Cheers 🍻

      Frenetic pace and careful work with hand tools don't seem like a good match. I thought it was very well paced.
