🕵️♂️ WHO AM I?:
My name is Matt Estlea, I'm a 26 year old Woodworker from Basingstoke in England and my aim is to make your woodworking less s***.
I come from 5 years tuition at Rycotewood Furniture Centre with a further 1 year working as an Artist in Residence at the Sylva Foundation, which is where I began growing my business. I then returned to Rycotewood to teach Evening Classes for 2 Years, while also teaching City and Guilds Furniture Making for 3 years. They were some long 12 hour days!
In September, 2021. I resigned from teaching at the school to focus on my own business.

I like to have a laugh and my videos are quite fast paced BUT you will learn a lot, I assure you.
Lets go make a mess.

Thank you for all of your kind comments! It's taken a lot of work to get to this point and we're not out of the mud yet! I've got a very busy summer ahead, and so videos will continue to be a little sparse until September. By which point, we'll begin to implement these plans and GET. BACK. ON. IT.
If you want to do your bit to help, purchasing products from my store, supporting me on Patreon, or getting us something from my Amazon wishlist are all great ways to do so. Relevant links are in the description above.
Love you all ❤
hey, did i see coconut wood blanks for knifes on that shelf ?!?!?
Looks like a lot of great progress.
store doesn’t have anything to sell?
You must be rich. Do you own that place or are you renting it? Renting something like that here in New York State, usa, would be 3 to 5k per month. Whats rent like in the Motherland?
also you have everything in that shop but a 3d printer. hmmmmmmm? edit: did i just see a 3d printer?
put a metal grate between the woodworking and machining areas. it'll help keep you from tracking metal shavings into the wood area & vice versa.
Oooo good idea, I'll look into that.
Me an my dad did this when refitting his workshop, we also grabbed one of those low power magnet sheets, you know the big ones that fridge magnets are made out of.
It mad cleaning it out much easier, tho you could probably do the same with a few rare earth ones on strips
This video was perfectly scripted, executed and filmed. Simply fantastic.
Really appreciate that, thank you! Put a lot of work into figuring out how to make it fun and engaging, so I'm glad it paid off!
Matt, Mike Rowe would be proud of you, a young man finding success in the trades. I have followed your videos on sharpening, planing, sawing etc. and finding success. You are my go-to guy for woodworking. And BTW, thanks for showing us your shop. Now my own seems like a turd.
I just started watching your channel after a long absence. I think it is a beautiful space and wish you well there.
As always, what a pleasure to watch your content Matt. Thank you to bring us on your journey through those interesting, fun and so well done videos.
The new/old filming background feels like welcome fan service and is such a nice idea!
The joy and passion that comes through in every one of your videos is wonderful and I appreciate it greatly. Definitely going to get some merch, would love to see what you do next.
Looks like things are shaping up nicely, glad to see that and I'm looking forward to seeing all that comes next. Cheers
What a fun video, Matt. Great to see you and Rob together again too. The workshop is looking bloody fantastic and genuinely, if I lived closer, I’d come and work for free to help you get going. In any case, keep up the great work and I have no doubt that the new workshop will encourage you to keep going from strength to strength. All the best.
Thanks Chris, definitely been the kick up the arse I needed! 😂
AWesome setup Matt! Hope things will work out for you, you are working so hard to get it all organised!
Finally! We've been missing you for too long! Great video! The editing is amazing. The workshop is fantastic. Congrats, Matt!
Mate this is so good! Brilliant piece of work, tight edit, witty scripting. I’ll need to watch it again with the sound on, obvs, but a fantastic space and excellent Malteser-geezer gag! 🙌👍
Wot Peter said. Really great work Matt 👏
Haha I'll take that. Thanks Peter!
Wow! That looks like the workshop of my dreams. I so envy you for that. I probably not envy you for all the hard work that went into it and all the previous steps you had to go through to get to this point ;) I really hope it all pays off and works out the way you planned it! Looking forward to all the stuff you make in there!
Ooo well done! Nice shop i hope all works out for you. You putt so much effort into all things
Congratulations Matt!!
It's wonderful to see your success and I wish you all the best moving forward in your new space 👏👏👏👏
Thank you Tomas! :)
Matt, you are inspiration to us all....👍 Glad to see your hard work paying off....
Great video, looking forward to see what comes out of the new workshop. Good seeing Rob again.
Thank you mate :) Always good to have him round.
@4:00 damn you Matt, that made me laugh out loud way more then it should 😂
The shop looks F-in amazing by the way! So jealous. Not on the debt part, but shop part yeah!
Hi Matt, i just wanted to say thank you for your sharpening videos. I have followed your guidance step by step and had fantastic results! I’d spent a whole load of time with the Tormek and never really achieved anywhere near the edges I’m now getting with your guidance. Cheers for the wonderful videos Allan
Great video. Awesome looking shop. Having watched your stuff for years really chuffed for all your success and wish you the best for all the new ventures
Thank you mate, really appreciate it. Great to have you here :)
Awesome videos - I have been learning things the slow way for years. Your videos filled in a lot of gaps.
Awesome shop(s) and plan! I got some great ideas for my own shop renovation while watching. Hold on a minute, I need to try out the malt ball trick... I was glad to see this latest installment, I've been missing you and your adventures. Keep up the good work!
I love your channel and have learned a great deal from you. Thank you for teaching me how to sharpen a planer and setup a planer and use a planer. Game changer!
Its been great to follow your journey Matt and a joy to watch your videos.
Always inspiring and I admire your imagination to keep coming up with great ideas and sharing your knowledge.
Well done.

You knocked it out of the park again. I wish I could hit the like button 100 times. Love the new shop. Looks like you've really made the most of it

That was a quality video, good humour and energy. Dude that workshop is awesome, well thought out space with good separation for each section.
I'm very fortunate to have it. Just got to make use of it now!
This is absolutely elite mate!! Love the new work space
Great video and best of luck. You’ve always shared brilliant videos and info.
Thank you!
Good luck Matt. I hope to see it as a success soon.
was wondering what you were up to. Have always enjoyed your vids. Really enjoyed this one. a bit of fun!
Wow, last time I checked you were making boxes in shed in your backyard, then you were buying a van and now, it seems you won the lottery or something!! That's amazing!
Love the video , editing and as always it is great to see the chemistry !!! And other than that "minor" upgrade.... That is a Global Woodworking Shop. looking forward for the new content with the "old"
spirit!
Lets hope we can keep it afloat! Thank you :)
Oh man, hit me right in the feels. Stonking great video Matt
Absolutely incredible Matt, loved every minute ❤️😀👍
Thank you Leo!!
I’m always learning so much! Thanks as always 😂 hope to see more videos soon!
Thank you!
@@MattEstlea also….can’t wait for these project packs. I’ve always wanted to get involved in making from something like that. Thanks as always 👍👍👍👍
This was so entertaining! Good luck with all the projects ahead!
Thank you!
Great video! Really good fun, well done!
Thank you mate!
Great video....managed to get our order in for the knives too!
Good luck in the new workshop / van etc!
Oh phew. Saves me doing it manually! Great to meet you earlier this year mate :)
Very funny great video and congratulations on the new shop can’t wait to see what you do next.
Haha glad to hear it. Thanks mate!
Love the video and the new workshop, very cool. All the best with the business. I am definitely trying the malteser challenge 😂
Great video, thanks. Best of luck in the new diggings🍻
Thank you!
Loads of fun!
This is an amazing video Matt. We’ll filmed, super entertaining. Congrats on the new space! Can’t wait to see what else you put out.
Thank you!!
Congrats, amazing space and video!!
Thank you!
Wow matt its looking good your new workshop. I hope it makes your youtube chanel bigger and I can wait to see your new video. Well done matt keep up the hard work. 🎉
Thanks mate, appreciate it!
2:09 Now thats a good idea. Only found one local timber yard that project packs but they are just blankets of wood. I still need to cut which is good but this idea of already cut is also good.
Yea it's been super popular already. I've got a company called Surrey Timbers doing it for me at the moment who are doing a great job.
Oh mate, that's a hell of a come back!
I'm so happy for you, I'll eventually get some merch again haha
Can't wait to see more, take care!
Hold off on the merch for now. Looking at getting some much more higher quality stuff in the coming months!
That space looks incredible! Best of luck!
Thank you!
I really like your workshop fantastic Matt. Matt I like your parf guide rail woodwork bench you made with slideing dovetails.
Haha oh man I don't miss trying to assemble that thing! Cheers mate :)
Looks a lo Ely space. Looking forward to you getting back to some good woodworking videos!
Once this van is out the way, absolutely..
The new shop lools incredible! Im sure it will work out great for you.
Thank you mate, hopefully that's the case!
Love that we're back to some of the crazy videos, surely there has to be a new Belvita challenge coming up 🤣
Haha they'll definitely be back. But we'll also make sure to stay on course this time... for the most part. Cheers Neil :)
@@MattEstlea I actually started having Belvitas after your video. Maybe you should have an affiliate link for them😂
Great video: I watch all my CZcams Vids after cutting and pasting the URL into a spreadsheet - THEN NO ADVERTS!
Amazing work space 👍
Looks great Matt
Love you matt!
Great.
Best of luck.
A dream workshop! Congratulations you deserve it. Now is build up time.
Mental isnt it? Can't believe its mine! Like you said, just gotta build it up and keep it afloat now!
Bloody wonderful!!!!!!
Amazing dream space! 😳✨✨
This was fun. Great content, even for someone who isn't a woodworker. Cheers!
So awesome to see comments like this. Great to have you here!
Congratulations for moving in and creating this new workshop! Glad to have you back here.
How many Maltersers did you knock of the tape measures while trying to roll them down? :-p
Looking forward to your return to youtube! - hope everything is going well.
More power to your elbow dude !
Hey Matt,
Very cool video! Your new workshop looks really cool. Good luck in your new projects and may you overcome all challenges!
Hugs from Brazil.
Ateliê do Alê, I'm a hobbyist woodworker who follows your channel.
Regards
Well hell, if woodworking doesn’t work out you could always make movies! Great job.
Haha my skills have very much deteriorated over the past year having done nothing but try to find a new workshop and build a van. So that's not a bad backup idea to be honest!
Well done Matt, awesome tour and the workspace looks amazing, very inspirational for me and my small garage goals! I'll order something from your site soon. Was also really nice to meet you at Wood Dust and hope you managed to check out the Lebanese food in Coburg ;-)
What an incredible space!
Thank you David! If you're ever in the UK ;)
At 4:08 you have your metal working files stored on a magnetic rack. Eventually the file will become magnetic and the filings will stick to the file.
Impressive stuff. I have to figure out how to fit out my 200ft² workshop. I'm very jealous of that space but also in awe of how much work must have gone into it.
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love this space, but I very much envy you only needing to figure out how to fit 200ft of space as opposed to 2000. What a nightmare haha
ROB...ROB...ROB...Dude, I have missed seeing you, and I pray all is well with you. Of course it’s also nice to Matt 😬😬 Congratulations on the new workshop and the setup looks very promising. I wish you Godspeed on this endeavor. I do have one request though: more ROB.......
Good going matt
may the force be with you sir
Amazing. Well done.
Thank you mate!
what a wild and wonderful video!
Thank you!
Well done, great sense of humor. Thanks for making me laugh
This video was a tonne of work and it totally was worth it, well done. If I was on your side of the world I'd be standing in front of one those workbenches already 😆 👍👍
Haha you never know. I unexpetedly found myself on the other side of the world recently. Might happen one day. Cheers mate :)
@@MattEstlea hah, true that, I need to find the English equivalent of Timbecon and see if they'll fly me over 😄 fyi, the cabinet you and the WoodDust gang built now hangs proudly in my workshop, love it. 😍
I'm pretty sure the Aussie timbers are Jarrah on the left, and She-Oak on the right. (I could be wrong).
Great intro to your next chapter. Will we a short soon?
So, Rob is back for good? You guys work so well together.
More news on that coming soon...
LOVE IT! 😁😁
Thank you!
You liked a comment about Bridge City on one of the Facebook woodworking pages so I’m subscribing to the channel. I’ve watched your videos for a while just never got around to hitting the button.
I commend you on your enthusiasm and courage. Will you be making the tools yourself or will you commission someone to do it?
Hey Matt, you don't know me from shit but I have followed you from day one and am so impressed with your growth. If you had mates do the video for this one they are pro's it is as good as it gets if you paid someone use them again!. i will certainly be buying some of your products to support your business you deserve it. Cheers T
Thank you! Apart from the filming, everything else was done by me. Which is also the reason I need to figure out hiring because I spend more time making a video look cool than I do making projects!
Look forward to the future content. Where did you get the funds to rent or buy such a big space? CZcams funds or woodworking? Or both? All the best mate
Bit of both with a little sprinkle of gamble on top haha
Nice workshop!
Thank you!
Epic. In every respect.👏👏
Thanks for sticking round all this time!
