    Late to the party but, as an experienced woodworker, mechanic and technician, you are a great creator. Accolades to you for your imagination, planning and execution. It is pleasing to see a young person use tools correctly and take necessary safety precautions to satisfy a custom need.
    Well done and continue with the content for small space. I am now a new subscriber.

      @@Sammitch my husband and I are looking at building our own in a sprinter van because we have 2 kids, we kinda need the extra head room for bunks. This looks like it would work good as a pull out that could be used as a bench seat at a table.

    • @Sammitch
      @Sammitch Před 5 lety +2

      mrsjokerstout I think it can work but may get tedious to put into a bed and back. Plus the work required to build. Very neat concept tho

    Awesome instructional ! I was working in a cabinet shop when I was younger than you and learned a lot of those techniques. Also the cushions are epic good. So glad you have the space and tools to make your furniture. I love multipurpose furniture. So I made my headboard a movable chair back so I can watch tv with good posture. I went to engineering school in Wisconsin and worked in building and designing large machinery. Good luck and keep posting.

    well done. problem solving by reverse engineering with the sewing plan was brilliant. I hope this video gets people attention and they rush to patreon and you can get some more clamps. I love that your work space is becoming a living space as people usually do it the other way round. it would be a great place to wake up in. never changed Chris keep being yourself.

Saves space, ingenious design, beautiful and unique finish, mechanical engineering genius, woodworking genius and sewing genius all in a complete diy project. Really amazing.

    First off love the project, I'm actually very excited to build something like that for myself! Secondly, and I cannot stress this enough, your video skills and camera quality are very very very good. Excellent clear shots of the cutting, assembly, design plans, etc. I always like a good, detailed voice over for instructions. You have a wonderfully intriguing voice and super cute accent, yet you are very well spoken so it isnt hard to tell what you are saying. Sorry, I could go on and on about how great it is, but everyone already knows lol. This may be my first video I'm seeing from you, but it surely won't be the last. I look forward to seeing more. Thank you!
