    Brilliant well done , as others have said, best DIY video on CZcams.

    I think someone making these without a workshop with a host of big expensive machine tools. These are fantastic. Most people even are quite handy wouldn't even attempt them. I'd love to see what you could do if you did have some fancy tools. Operational ones of these cost a fortune and the fact you just knocked them up for under £50 without big fancy tools is very impressive.

      @@simsdiy I'm definitely going to give it a bash. I am a woodworker but not this kind of thing. I've just moved into an old house with Victorian panelling around the windows. Some of the videos put me off a bit making them overcomplicated but your video just cut through the joinery snobbery and b.s. and made it relatively simple. Thanks. I'll definitely be checking out the rest of your stuff.

    Absolutely incredible video, such helpful step by step instructions and watching this has given me the confidence to also make some of these myself rather than buy some! Thank you!!! ❤️😍 Xx

    You have made this look so simple. So well done. I'm a keen woodworker and I cringed a bit whilst you were drilling down with your laminate floor below. You must have the patience of a saint to complete all of these processes by hand. Again, well done. Quite inspirational.

    I am FINALLY ready to do this and am SOOOOOO grateful I saw your video when I did and saved it. I'm really excited to construct these ESPECIALLY after getting estimates from professional installers! I don't know about anywhere else outside of the U S., but the prices are LUDICROUS!

    This video is one of the best, if not the best DIY video. You made some really nice blinds with the most commonly used hand tools. Great video

    I applaud her for an outstanding work. She has excellent measuring skills. I would be off if it wasn't for my jig. She drew around the dowel and then drilled the holes in the middle of both lines. In the United States, these shutters could cost around $300.00, $400.00 per window.

    Thank you for this video! It will cost me approx £175 to do my bedroom bay windows. You have saved me £2,000 on the order I was going to place this year. I will spray paint the louvres instead!!

    I absolutely love your video. I was wondering if one can make these without special tools and it looks like you can. I might have to give this a go after all. Thank you for sharing!

    Well done, an amazing video and great looking results. This has spurred me on to build my own now rather than give my left arm to have them made for me. You should be very proud as I am sure you are. excellent!
