Look at you Dennis, how far you became in woodworking. I remember watching your videos at the very beginning with almost 1K Subs and Main theme was China Tools. Never was disappointed and your esthetic eye on little things is just a pleasure to watch. Would love to see more of this kind of projects and the beautiful workshop in action.
Thanks! appreciate your comment!
Same been here from the start, when Dennis was reviewing €10 rulers from bangood...
He's come along away, a very long way in budgets too...
One thing as remained, fantastic video production
Dennis, when you attached that miter joint and it came together flush and perfect, it was a thing of beauty!
Not sure if anyone else noticed, but Dennis is the only woodworker on CZcams who ALWAYS wear his Personal Protection Equipment at all times: glasses, gloves, solid pants, good shoes, ear protection either soft or hard, and mask (without mentioning his new workshop air filtration system shown in previous videos). I am too old to care now, but it is nice to see someone demonstrating the right way to keep the workplace as safe and healthy as possible. The new generations of DIY enthusiasts and weekend hobbyists who take inspiration from Hooked on Wood should thank you for being a role model. Well done. 🏆🥇🏅
Wearing gloves when using a rotating machine is not really the way to go.
I love your shop projects, and this was also a pleasure to see. Despite their being a lot of content creators to do these types of projects, seeing your own take on it with the amazing aesthetics that you put into everything you do was great. Always a pleasure to see you work your magic, Dennis.
Simple, clean and smart design. Beautiful
Amazing work Dennis. Much much respect
Basic is beautiful Dennis 👏👏👏
I can only hope to get close to your level of craftsmanship someday. You are an inspiration! Keep making these kind of videos please!!
That's not a desk, it's a work of art.
Hi there, this is the first video I’ve come across form your channel, and now I’m binging the rest, although the wood working is something I like to watch and see how others do it, I’d be really interested in what’s on the desk, I recognise the speakers I think, and maybe the preamps, but I’d definitely like to see more, you are a man of exquisite taste, great job and I look forward to seeing your other videos
Excellent Dennis.👍👍
Yuo are a master Dennis! As allways you take care of alldetail! Great Job! I love to watch your videos!
Great work! I as well go though great lengths to hide and manage wires. Well done.
Great video and a great project!
Really enjoyed watching this.
Nice job dennis❤
Now that is a nice desk.
Excellent As Always
Beautiful work Denis. It was great to see your workshop in use.
just wonderfull
This desk is beautiful, Dennis! Love Oak and love your work and inspiration!
A truly stunning piece of work and a desk anyone would be proud to own.Thank you.
Ill say this!
If i ever won the lottery, I would have a work shop like yours and make custom dj booths like the one you made for a 1000 dollar Mac computer.
But for high end turntables and dj mixers.
Money money money!
If they only grew on trees.
Beautiful desk, great job!
Loved this and your design approach. Love to see more of this style of video.
Just beautiful
Superb job Dennis. Looks fabulous. 👍
Wonderful video. Love the precision you have in all your work. It's obvious from watching all your video's that you took the time to do perfect setups on all of your equipment and workbenches, the precision incorporated in these must make it much easier to "trust" your measurements and get them right every time. Absolutely amazing!!!
Beautifully done Dennis
Very nice!
Masterful as always; thanks Dennis!
Amazing design, build and craftsmanship… inspirational
Truly inspired and truly inspirational work!!! Thank you so much for sharing.
Beautiful table! Gives me some ideas for when I'm ready to replace my desk.
Ik blijf het zeggen, wat heb je een mooi kanaal met super inspirerende inhoud. Door deze video’s krijg ik meer zijn om dingen net wat mooier te maken. Dank je wel 🙏🍀
Dennis you have some very beautiful ideas and you are a excellent craftsman
A simple but lovely and useful design. Bravo 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼!!
Beautiful! Also the video production as always.
professional and beautiful work
What a beautiful desk, Dennis, and such wonderful functionality.
You must be enjoying your new workshop so much, and it must be great to accommodate such large pieces easily.
Love all your videos, including your larger project / furniture videos.
Have a great weekend 😁
Awesome desk, that will make things much more enjoyable 😊.
Sweet! Nice job!
Great desk..!!1. But what a wonderful audio setup you have...!!!
😀 it is very nice and joyful working this way😀
@@HookedonWood I’m pretty sure it is.!! You would do a video just of it (seriously it look that good)
Amazing work, Dennis! Really beautiful desk! 😃
Nicely done!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thanks, all the best.
Dennis, briljant.... Wat een mooi bureau heb je gemaakt. Je "basic" smaak is wel van uitmuntende kwaliteit. Zoals zoveel mensen zeggen, jij zet een nieuwe standaard op de markt wat houtbewerking betreft. Alles wat op dit kanaal voorbij komt is van uitmuntende kwaliteit. Je bent een voorbeeld voor velen. Super bedankt voor het maken van deze video's, Ik kijk alweer uit naar je nieuwe video. Keep up the good work🙏.
't zal wel zijn. Om van te smullen.
You ad something, something very important. Quality in every aspect 😊.
"Perfection of simplicity"❤️
Thanks Peter!
Your viceos and attention to detail is amazing. Thanks so much for sharing this inspiration for beginners like myself
Excelent work.
A Bond desk inspiration by Bodil Kjær ?
Great job !
WOW!!😍
Mooi strak werk Dennis!! Heb gelijk zin om de schuur in te duiken ,heel motiverend !!
Patience - a simple word but one that you Dennis amplify in your skill. How easy I suspect with your excellent workshop would it be to work fast and hope your machinery corrects your error but you don’t work that way which is why you are so impressive. I have watched all your videos and this style of working is there from the start. Well done and well done for a cool desk.
Hey Dennis, vergeet niet lekker te gaan fietsen vandaag :) Mooi project!
Goed plan👍
@@HookedonWood Welke luidsprekers / versterker gebruik je? Ze zien er fantastisch uit, maar kan ze niet thuisbrengen. Bijzondere luidsprekerkabel & connector ook trouwens.
Good morning Denis.
Nice video, I'm curious how well your build video will run 👍, I enjoyed it
Great video and beautiful shop Dennis! Please make a video for us on the FAT300S workbench
Hello Dennis,
I was one of the viewers who asked for more project videos. So, thank you very much for this upload!
As I mentioned before I really like your basic designs. It is simple yet beautiful and with the integration of hardware, cable management and drawers it has some unique features.
I disagree, that your projects have nothing to add. It is true that there are lots of great woodworking youtubers, but their builds are quite different from yours. Lots of people build super fancy stuff with extravagant design which is complicated to build. Others build just simple (plywood-)projects without the clever features and the craftsmanship that you include in your projects. So the combination of simple and easy to build design with clever features and a high level of craftsmanship ia quite rare. It is a shame that these kind of videos get so few views.
I've cherished the idea of building a height adjustable desk for quite some time now. When it comes to that I'll definitely steal some of your ideas😅.
Thanks and regards,
Richard
Excellent Dennis !!!
Can you Tell me What dust mask you are wearing?
I do not know the mask exactly. Bought it on Amazon. They have small filters inside and work good enough for me, but you have to be realistic that there are better masks, but not as comfortable as these.
Hello Dennis. Do you have any content available on the computer build of this desk? I mean like specifically how you attached the components and stuff like that. Did you need to use much extension cables?
Hoi Dennis. Wederom een erg mooie en inspirerende video van een leuk project.
Kun je misschien vertellen waar je het eiken plaatmateriaal vandaan hebt?
Bedankt. Ga zo door
Dat zou ik ook graag willen weten, als particulier is het in Nederland lastig hout van goede kwaliteit te kopen.
Hey Dennis,
Nice Video's
i alway enjoy your Content!
next month my K540S will be deliveried
Do you may have a hint for me, where you find you "Fritz and Franz" Jig?
would be very Nice!
thank you!
Wow, cool, you will be very with that one 😀. I made the Fritz and Franz myself, but that is definitely a jig you need.
@@HookedonWood
yeah, it's like waiting for christmas eve as a child....
did you eventually did a video about your fritz and franz?
to be honest, i love your Design-decisions of your workshop and jigs....
there's a lot of work and effort in it!
Hi Dennis.....Congratulations on another great video. The desk is superb. Would be fantastic to have a video of how you built your central height adjustable work bench mounted on the Felder FAT 300S.....Super cool design and so practical for a smaller workshop
Dennis het wordt tijd voor een CNC
This man has money. hehe keep up the great video's!
I always like your videos! May I ask what is that blue thing attached to Domino at 9:00? It does not look like the standard attachment which comes with the machine. The standard one is a bit flimsy so if you found a good upgrade I would be happy to hear about it! Also, out of curiosity, did you have to do any adjustments on the Domino? My Domino joints do not always come up as neatly as yours and so far I was not able to figure out why exactly. Thanks!
That is the TSO bigfoot: tsoproducts.com/jigs-fixtures-guides/dbf-45-bigfoot-v2-0-base-system-for-festool-domino/
No adjustments on the domino. look at this video at around 3.40. Maybe it has something to do with that. czcams.com/video/mj0pHVYEEYI/video.html
Very nice tabletop.
What type of wood and finish is that?
Wood is Oak, finish Rubio Pure
Wonderful, thanks.
Weer een fantastische video Dennis. Ik geniet er iedere keer weer van. Nu ook buiten de werkplaats een erg geslaagde video. Prachtige desk en weer twee nieuwe links met jouw kanaal erbij: computers en Hi-Fi, want dat zijn volgens mij geen gewone speakers en speaker kabels, toch? Groetjes uit Limburg!
Hoi, nee de speakers zijn van KEF en de kabels een erfenis uit het verleden als Audiophile. :-)
I’d definitely love to see more project videos, even aside from the projects, your workshop is awesome so it’s nice to see all the systems you’ve built being used
Thank you for the video. It always strikes me that you have so much precision when you build things, its a motivation for me and I learn something every time. Those speakers on your desk got my attention with those thick speaker cords - what are they if you don't mind sharing ?
The speakers are from KEF, the LS50. The cords are a legacy from my past as an Audiophile. I like better powercords to give the sound more attack. But also a better shielding because there are some cables inside my desktop and I do not want them to interfere with each other.
@@HookedonWood I should have played that video in 1080p and popped on my spectacles!... I had missed the orange was the power cord. With your eye for accuracy I am not surprised you looked for similar things in audio. Thanks for letting me know the speakers and thank you for your excellent videos.
beautiful. I would love to see more build videos. I love your aesthetic BTW, how did you attach the rear panel? Is it removeable?
Yes I slide it in place.
Hello friend, Emanuel from California, USA here. Trying to navigate through your website to grab some plans, but the language is set to Norwegian (I think) and there isn't a discernible navigate to change the language. Anyone have any suggestions? - thanks!
Mooi hoor, die 45 graden hoeken vooral. Ik hoop dat je apparatuur niet te warm wordt met dit weer. Je kan het meteen goed testen. Je timing is perfect. Gisteren dacht ik nog dat het een mooi project kon zijn om een keer een nieuw blad te maken voor mijn zit sta bureau. Wel wat eenvoudiger dan dit. Maar 2 lagen met lades ertusse zou heel handig zijn. Eerst maar eens een opberger voor op het bureau en kijken hoe dat lukt. Sinds kort monitorarmen in gebruik en dat ruimt ook meteen op.
Weeral een video om duimen en vingers van af te likken. De manier hoe jij tewerk gaat is een lust voor het oog. Mag ik vragen wat die dikke oranje kabels zijn, die uit de tafel naar de luidsprekers leiden?
Dank je, die kabels zijn stevige stroomkabels. Een erfenis uit mijn verleden als Audiofiel. Vond het nu met name zinvol omdat er relatief veel stroom kabels en data kabels lopen en wil dat deze kabels elkaar zo min mogelijk verstoren.
Love the design and the simplicity, thank you for sharing. I have a question: Why did you choose to cut the 45º on the riser pieces of the desktop on the sliding part of the table saw instead of using the fence?
Because I had to cut both sides at 45 degrees, with the second cut there is a risk the sharp edge will go under the fence and at the other side it is fragile. Second reason is that because the overhead blade guard for a bevel cut is wider and the width of this workpiece is not that wide, I could not guide it with my hands, so I would have to use one stick, but that gives a change of turning the piece a little bit while pushing it. Last it that this way, I had the possibility to place some hold down clamps so the cut would be cleaner and best change on perfect cut.
@@HookedonWood thank you
Do you come out of the Nederlands because i see a clamp of the gamma
Yes, i do😀
Any workshop build is worth the viewing, simple design is not a bad thing . What cables are you using on those active speakers ??.
Those powercords once where produced by Linn and the digital cables are from Audioquest.
Simple, but definitely clever! 🇦🇺👴🏻
Netjes!!! Even een tip van “audiofiel” naar “audiofiel” laat je niet gek maken met luidsprekerkabels en andere dingen want je merkt én meet er niks aan…Alle “voordelen” die je merkt zijn puur placebo..
Ik dacht het nut van stroomkabels inmiddels wel duidelijk was🙂. Maar je bent gezegend als je overtuigd ben dat het allemaal niet uitmaakt👍. Scheelt een hoop 💰
Hello Dennis could this be the base for an adjustable height work table to accommodate 1200 X 2400mm standard sheets … it only needs to be movable when its not in use … your videos have cost me a lot of money on Banggood!!
No, most important reason is because the low position is limited.
@@HookedonWood Hi Dennis thanks for the reply … I have a requirement for a 950mm high work surface that is flat and stable I can even anchor it to the floor if necessary … I am prototyping an analog X Y axis router sled with an OF2200 mounted on top … just need a base that I can transport … designed this out of necessity since I have not seen any analog alternatives to regular CNC machines … not everyone wants to be a programmer!!
@@michaelsnelling2918 Hi Michael, What I can tell you is that it is very stable, It is more stable than my Felder FAT300S. But it is also more sophisticated than the FAT, and what I am not sure of is if this means more fragile for a bit of abuse. But there is no movement at all in all directions with this table. And I think it has enough lifting capacity to be safe for a workbench.
Thanks Dennis I will look into this as an option
Dennis - It's been 5 months since you posted this; are you still pleased with your choice of the Flexispot E7Q? I'm looking into one and wanted your thoughts on a long(ish) term review. Thanks!
Hi, Yes, still works as new! I also bought one (Lighter version) for my daughter. Runs smooth and does not make much noise.
@@HookedonWood Thank you for the feedback!
Dennis, weer schitterend project! Ik ben eigenlijk wel benieuwd wat voor achtergrond/werk je doet/deed? Engineer/techniek oid neem ik aan?
0:50 is this a new workbench?
Yes, I will make a video one day.
Wil dat nu even treffen. De reclamespot voor je video was van ................... Banggood :p
really?, they probably miss me :-)
You haven’t considered hiding the metal legs in what would look like a massive wood-telescope structure?🤔
Yes I did. But I wanted some drawers also. But one of the options was a bit thicker top and the frame sunken
What is the wood?
Solid oak!
welke ladegeleiders heb je hier gebruikt?
dat zijn eigenlijk gewoon hele simpele laden. www.meubelbeslagcenter.nl/push-to-open-ladegeleiders-350mm-zijmontage
Zijn dus eigenlijk voor zij montage, maar omdat ze weinig belast zullen worden durf ik het wel aan. Ik wilde de zijkanten vrij-houden. De traditionele onder montage geleiders vind ik te hoog. Dan hou ik niet veel meer over.
@@HookedonWood
Dennis, kan je daar eens een filmpje over maken en tonen hoe je dat fikst. Ik heb deze ook al eens gebruikt, maar dan uiteraard op de zijkant.
I understand not doing plans for the reasons you said, but could you maybe list the components that you have stored and where? Might be easier to match your aesthetic that way.
Agree, I see what I can do
Hi Dennis, I like your videos/projects very much but a short hint: you should never use gloves with rotating machines! This is really dangerous and can be taken by your viewers as an example. Cheers, Arne
Gloves don't protect hands from blades and if you suffer a blade injury with gloves on they have to get the gloves off which might not be too pleasant either. Using a slider hand injury incidents are just about impossible if a Frits and Frans jig is used for smaller parts and cutting panels hands are in even less danger.
Thanks and I understand your concern. I will make a disclaimer next time to avoid viewers think it is OK to use gloves.
For me it is a calculated risk. If I can not wear my gloves, it kick out the fun of working in my workshop. It does not feel comfortable without gloves. That does not mean I take safety lighthearted. In the small village where I live, we drive past each other at 80km per hour when oncoming traffic arrives. The space between the two cars is then 1.5 meters. That is deatly dangerous. But we all thake that risk on a daily basic. While working in my workshop, I try to avoid all distractions and focus. I am aware of the increased risk I am taking that the consequences could be more serious in case of an emergency. But just like driving a car, I assume that with proper focus, the chances of an accident are small.
Je onderschat jezelf Dennis. De mate van kwaliteit die jij levert met je werkstukken vind je niet snel op CZcams. Dus wat mij betreft; Meer projecten van HoW. 🙂
thanks!
Hi , is it possible to have the interior dimentions of your amazing workshop 😮😮 Thx 🇨🇦
Your project was a big sucsess wow an ingeneus way of doing a desk top 👍🏼🤜🤛❤️
Hi Dennis. So many of your projects have a black MDF product that you use. I think it looks great. Can you tell me a product name and possibly a link? I would love to purchase some if it is not too expensive and available in America. The desk is beautiful.
Best wishes Tod
Please, no gloves on rotary machines, never. From the manual of the jointer/planner : 2.7 Personal protective equipment "It is prohibited to wear gloves while working on or with the machine!". It is such a hazard. Please be safe
Yeah, as usual, woodworking porn ;)
Great job with the wood and the editing !
That must be why I love it so much😝
This seemed like one big add sorry not my thing..
Well, at least I didn’t make a secret of it. But 80% was a build videos
@@HookedonWood I'm not mad I am just not interested in the video because it does not relate to my level ...
I cant afford a tenth of the equipment you now have due to your growth in income and freebees from you tube and sponsors..
China tools episodes are great... But for me an episode where you use equipment that the standard wood worker can never afford well my demographic doesn't gain any value from watching that type of video..
Just saying...
I use to watch April Wilkinson but she got so much stuff and a huge shop with cnc's..
I stopped watching due to non relate-ability..
But every Video that you create that I can relate to at my level I will watch..
I am just being honest......I just don't want you to get so much stuff you forget the guys that can't have it like April did..
It just would make me sad...
Because I love your videos just not the ones that remind me that I am not well off..and can not learn from if I need a huge table saw or a 1000$ tool... Please don't forget your base...because you make some wonderful stuff with just the regular tools and that's what inspires me..
To sum it up I did not intend this to sound nasty I just did not want to lose another great channel to commercialization..
Sorry for the long reply its hard to type a reply that comes across right (I am not mad or upset and I did not intend to put your work down) Just wanted to let you know in an honest manner that I can't relate to this..
That way you get feed back and if it makes you think hey don't forget the little guy :)
Respectfully I disagree… we will never have enough craftsmen sharing their skills with the rest of us…. At 56 I am still learning from others… But with that said, not enough go into details on their projects as to what they are doing and why…
