  • I've been trying a few different ways of making furniture out of smaller pieces of scrap. I'm not sure if this method is more, or less work than traditional construction, but it was a lot of fun.

    Broadcast TV died when Epic UpCycling started putting out videos - it's way more satisfying to watch a master-craftsman build something from scraps than to watch a bunch of people act.

      If only that were true and the majority of the people in the world enjoyed watching this instead of garbage reality tv, it would be a much better world.

    I love watching you work in your shop. You remind me so much of my grandfather, he was a builder also. And if I was quiet, I could sit and watch him, and I would watch him for hours.
    I wanted to thank you for helping me to remember a part of my childhood. It just brings me wonderful memories of my grandfather.
    I can’t wait to see what you’re going to make next and looking into your shop with all the different cabinets you made. It’s beautiful.

      Thanks Kathy. I've got a big project on at the moment which is going to take a while so there might be a few smaller videos over the next few weeks.

    To answer your musings of whether or not this process was more work versus other methods, might I remind you of the pieces you have built where you meticulously shape HUNDREDS OF SMALL PIECES to glue together, stain, etc. Your patience is amazing and incredibly inspiring.
    Another fantastic piece. Thank you for sharing your process.

    At 14:28 as you were sanding down your latest and amazing creation, I was noticing the COOLEST things behind you and I watched you build them all. What a super clean and neat workshop you have!! I click the THUMBS UP before I even begin to watch any of your videos because it's a sure thing I will really like whatever you make! I really enjoyed this A LOT! Great idea! If I saw these somewhere I'd not hesitate to buy them both! Just AWESOME!

    CZcams woodworking is obsessed with clamps. Love that you built these using only one, and then only to make it square. As always very inspirational, thanks for sharing

    • @fatroberto3012
      @fatroberto3012 Před 14 dny +5

      Not in this video but I always like it when Jason uses a few opposing wedges to do what other CZcamsrs would use twenty 4 foot clamps for.

    Finally, a good reason why cheap particle board flat-pack "furniture" exists :). As a sacrificial form around which to make something awesome. Bravo! When you first rolled that white monstrosity into the video frame I thought "oh no"!

    Epic UpCycling, indeed.
    While watching the assembly of the particle boards, I thought "What's he up to?" at first. Then it reminded me of what - trying hard not to spoil new viewers here - them folks at the furniture shop across the street use for some large-quantity projects. Very clever way to ensure matching measurements.
    As always, it's a true pleasure watching your videos. Well done, Jason.
    Cheers.

    Your creativity is, as always inspiring. Once again I am in awe. Also, to see your workshop in the background and realise I have watched you create every one of them over the years. You could give guided tours and you would have queues of people wanting to see "the master craftsman" and your amazing creations.
    Yes, I am unashamedly addicted to your videos and hope to see many, many more.

    @shirleyannconfer9651 Před 14 dny +1

    I really like this set. I’m glad you chose the lighter finish for the butcher block areas, and the darker legs and hardware are a nice accent. It’s a beautiful innovation, and a method to remember for other projects.

    Most individuals that own $100,000 worth of equipment. Having 30+ yrs in an occupation would make you a Master Carpenter.
    So, yes all your projects are masterfully done.
    So, whether you use scrap or mahogany, I would expect any project to be completed exceptional.

I felt very pleased with myself for figuring out what the melamine boards were for almost instantly. Obviously there was no way they were going to be part of the final product! It's always mind blowing to think of the work behind the finger snap duplication!!
