New channel name: "Break Something"
Now THAT'S funny!
That is quality dad-joke material 😂😆🤣
I literally laughed out loud at that.
This guy gets it.
@@beaushaw me too!🤣
"earned by selling drugs" 😂
well, he's not making any money by selling mugs lol...
Now THIS is real world making. I can totally relate.
Dave, I learn something from every video you make. Today I learned to take up golf.
All kidding aside, you have one of the most informative and creative maker channels on YT. Thanks for showing us the failures as well as the successes.
Thank you! 🙏
Remember this the next time you play golf. I hit two good balls today … I stepped on a rake.
This all didn’t happen when the beard was still there David?. Just an observation 😄. I think we all know/have these days..it still had me laughing!. (i think i would have thrown something around)
Hahaha!
You may be on to something.
The beard has to come back
Definitely need the beard back.
Absolutely bring the beard back. :)
I'm very glad your worst day in the shop was losing blades and brakes, and not a finger.
Yes, I'm very thankful for that.
I'm glad you never made it to the router table. Heaven knows what would have happened there...
Right?!
Something about the router that it puts the most fear in me over any other tool.
"I don't like the way it LOOKS, I don't like the way it SMELLS" 😂
Oh man! Luckily nothing bad happened while you were Lathing!
Maybe this should become a lathe only channel now...
This is my new favorite woodworking video. You kept control, laughed it off, and made it fun. You're awesome Dave. Hope today was better.
" This is a real moment! I`m not gonna get mad anymore. Not mad at all!" Lmao!! NOt laughing at you my friend but well done on making this a funny video. We all have these days in the shop of course. I have a two tape balls. When stuff happens in the shop and i`m "not mad at all" i throw one of them across the shop as hard as i can along with a colourful word or two and have a break like you did; sometimes for the rest of the day. Hopefully you had a cold one and put your feet up! God bless.
We all have “that day” where the shop turns against us… glad you survived it. Thank you for letting us into this perfect storm of a maker nightmare.
Possibly my most favorite woodworking video ever. When it rains it pours but you kept your cool and soldiered on up to a good point where it was just time to step away from it all.
Thanks for making us common folk realize we all face the same challenges and problems at times.
I honestly appreciate your posting this video. Many people edit out mistakes and mishaps. This type of video helps me to realize that I’m not the only one who has occasional bad days where everything seems to go wrong. Always seeing perfect projects can be intimidating for beginners and even hobbyists who aren’t quite as advanced. Sometimes showing your losses and how you properly deal with them can really inspire others to plan better, have fewer bad days, and be less discouraged when they do happen. Thanks
I love your work, and sharing your "tough day" makes me feel like I'm ok when I screw up, as long as no one gets hurt. Thanks for sharing your pain.....we can probably all relate to how we "learn" from our mistakes (and go broke).
YOU DID IT AGAIN!!!! DAVID! Dude I've had these f*cking days and we have a standing rule in our shop that if 3 things (major or minor) go wrong, you MUST go home and give yourself a rest ha. God bless you, buddy, you handled that shit way better than I would have. I would have gotten very sailor mouth after that second one.
I am 75 years old and have had my share of bad shop days, i have to admit i had a smile on my face as i watched you in all your humbleness, show the world all utube videos are not perfect! Sorry i even had a few laughs ! Keep up the good (and the bad ) work! I enjoy all your work!
I have totally been there. Terrible series of fails that led me to walk away from machines and techniques for months. As much as you do Dave this is more than OK. If you drive 100k miles expect a fender bender.
David, man this was so hard to watch near the end, lol. I'm sorry that happened, homie. But we all know what it feels like. Thanks for sharing this real experience. Just glad you didn't get hurt!
This is me almost every day in the shop... Glad you weren't physically hurt by any of the mishaps. Keep on making!
Thank you for sharing. Ultimately you still created something amazing, I have some amazing examples to show my shop students of what not to do. Glad you were safe and no injuries
Man, that was ROUGH! I hope you filled one of those blanks with whiskey after filming that outro, I know I would have 🥃
You better believe it!
Ideally we all want wood that is 4 inch thick David
true true.
@@MakeSomething just not last longer than 4 hours.
I watched this video twice to help make for some of your losses, great video Dave! You handled it like a pro.
I consider this to be an essential woodworking video. In the times of ridiculously polished YT woodworking vids where everything is just perfect, this is a very needed perspective. I'm happy you shared this. Never be afraid of not being perfect.
I feel the tension all the way to Norway, We have all had some of these days. Calling quits takes guts! But sometimes they are worth it. Keep up the good work, we are here for the next project. ♥️
End grain on an insert cutterhead? Jury is still out on that. Our 22" Powermatic lost 40 of its +100 inserts and about 20 screws when someone ran a cross-grain board through the machine (school shop). And worse is that there is a sheared-off screw we have not been able to get out, yet. Use a drum sander for end grain surfacing, I say.
I’ve done end grain through jointers and planers with straight knives and carbide knives. You don’t want to try to take off 1/8”.
I don’t know about that…I’ve ran end grain and cross grain through my old PC lunchbox planer many many times. I think the key might be shallow DOC
Interesting. I’ve run endgrain over my powermatic helical head jointer with no issues. Definitely have to go slow and take small passes. Certainly wouldn’t want to do that with a long board either. Very rare occasion to run endgrain but I have done it
Next time I call my lumber yard for wood, I'm asking for #HardAssHickory
Haha!
David, you are the one who not only taught me woodworking, but taught me to love it as well. I've been watching you since the days in your basement and seeing stuff like that happen and you keeping your cool inspires me. Thank you for everything you do, be it a masterpiece or firewood
Just used that very same forstner bit myself for the first time yesterday before seeing this video. Reviews suggested it might dull quickly but I worked fantastically for me
Oh wow Dave. Thank you, thank you, for this video. I've had days like this in the shop also and it's fantastic that you shared this with us. It's great to know that days like this happen to us all! Thanks for the videos man!
We’ve all had those days! Just part of woodworking (or any hobby involving tools, really). When I’ve had those expensive days, I’ve learned to be thankful only a tool got hurt and not myself.
I think the "flow" was telling you to take the day off.
3:38 - Loved the delivery
The suspense was immense.
I can imagine the hesitation when attempting that third cut. Measuring it like 10 times prior to cutting.
One of those days when you need to just go home and have a cold one, come back tomorrow.
You held it like a champ though.
Your frustration was visible but you held it together much better than I could have. I admire you for showing the realness. Better days are ahead, sir!
A)not gonna lie....I saw the first mistake coming. B) this is by far, the best video you have produced. The honesty, the entertainment...it's priceless. Thank you for being transparent.
Thanks for this. I had a similar bad day a few months ago, and it killed all desire to do this hobby. Seeing an actual woodworker have a day like this made me start thinking about getting back to it.
Thanks.
I feel like we've all had a day in the shop like that. Or if you haven't, it's only a matter of time. It's not a good idea to be around power tools while angry and frustrated.
I was crying when you mentioned grandma! 😂🤣🤣 OMG David! You hang in there, buddy. It's almost kart season!
You just lived through your version of " Alexander's Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day"! Thanks for sharing your painful day, it's a reminder that bad things happen in the shop and we just need to recover and move on.
So sorry that all of this happened, but, thank you, thank you, thank you for this video! We all have days in the shop like this, but to have you share yours reminds us all that it doesn't just happen to us.
Thanks for sharing your shop frustrations, that was a bad day! You came out of it with all your fingers, which makes it a good day!
You are amazing. It is great to see others being real so when life happens to me I don’t feel so bad. Thank you for posting this.
I love it - totally appreciate the honesty in this video. Fair play to you for posting this real world experience and not keeping the "bad day" secret.
Oh man! That's what I said to myself when you talked about this on the podcast, and again watching the video. Thanks for keeping it real though. A bad day could be much worse if one gets hurt. Glad you listened to that instinct.
Some days, no matter how much you want to be in the shop, you've got to step out and do something else. We've all been there, dude. Great vid!
I listened to you tell this story on your podcast "making it" and I thought man thats a bad day. But after watching this full video, the pain is so real. Thanks for posting it and I look forward to seeing what comes next.
I really like how you are willing to show us you are not perfect. This stuff happens to everyone and it is good to walk away from a project when you are getting this frustrated. Great job! Look forward to seeing them finished.
NAILED IT! Best video EVER! Sorry for your troubles David but thanks for sharing all of this with us. I love the real life situations and unforeseen measuring problems. YOUR ARE THE MAN!
Thank you for this. Many lessons learned.
Thanks for the tip on how to clamp to the drill press in that fashion it will come in handy
The struggles are what make it real. Thanks for showing us that even you have struggles in the shop.
Thanks for this! It's encouraging to see things go awry in other shops once in a while.
I said “Oh shit it got him again!” Out loud on the second one. Hopefully you’re done with bad luck for a bit. At least you got to keep all your fingies!
Sounds like an everyday day I have. I had people asking me to make something for them, so I bought around $1000 in wood working tools and started charging for the work. The people stopped asking for me to make thing for them. New power tools most still in the box. Oh that does not include the x carve it cost over $2000.
Open them up! People will start asking again.
Great video. I totally understand about the saw stop. I have done it twice.
That was some next level not-mad. I need to learn your technique. 🙃
Awww, I have had too many of those days, and what I've learned, is if your day starts that way, you need to quit for the day and go and do something else. I just wish I could take my own advice. Good on you for sharing. It's so human. 🙏🏻
The first video I ever watched of yours was how to use a Incra I-Box to make a box joint wine box. You have come so far since those early (Druken Woodworking) days. HOWEVER you still keep everything very real and show the good, the bad and the ugly parts of your projects. Thank you for always being authentic and always entertaining.
Can relate. Glad you kept your fingers
Dave your honesty is what makes you great. Loved this video. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing this day with us all - it gives me hope that someone as talented as you can have days like this too! Keep up the great work, and thanks for your humility in sharing this! 👍
Thank you for taking us along on your bad day in the shop. Thankfully your not injured.
listening to the universe telling you to stop the project is probably the best advice any of us could ever take. Picciuto giving us lessons in keeping ourselves centered.
Peace and love, brother☮💟
Without the bad days we can't really appreciate the good ones. Perhaps the universe just thought - "you know what, I'm gonna get rid of all his bad luck in one go so he can have a good rest og the year". Have some 🎂 and ☕ as you sit back and enjoy the rest of the day.
I would have quit well before this. Good work for soldiering on. Totally feel your pain. Thanks for sharing, we’ve all been there.
I feel you buddy. I have days like this myself when nothing goes right. so, I just stop for the day and start again tomorrow. glad you were not hurt.
these things happen... the most important thing is to not let this dampen your spirit.
Nice ride! Thanks for sharing this. It's hard enough when one or two of those things go wrong. I feel your pain.
David do you realize how many of us out here have done these things ourselves. It is somewhat carthetic to see a famous and well known person have a day like you did because it makes many of us feel just a little bit less foolish!!! Looking forward to your next project. Keep on smiling!
Bravo...thanks for sharing the bad with the good.
Wow,. Thanks for sharing great video! I am totally have one of those days today...
Best video EVER!!!! Sorry for your losses. It’s truly nice to see that genius makers making mistakes. Really liked the end when you showed us how much some of the equipment costs. Thanks for keeping it real.
Rough day, but thanks for sharing your frustrations, it's nice to see that you can have a bad day also.
Love that you shared, thank you. What damage was on the insert that the SawStop break triggered on?
Oh, I feel your pain. Thanks for the video. We all need to see that it's not all wine and roses. Breathe deep! Reset and jump back in.
Good video. I liked this one because it showed that not all jobs go according to plan, even for seasoned craftsmen like you.
I can totally relate to this - I've had days in the shop where everything went wrong for some reason.
What keyless chuck did you get? I have the same drill press and want to upgrade to keyless chuck
Loved this video! Sorry for everything had to replace but been there having a bad day and nothing goes right. Feels good not being alone.
I'm envious of your patience. I would not have took it as well as you did. Love your show
I learned this from Brendan Stemp on you tube. To drill a large hole with Forstner bits Take the large bit and drill about 1/4 inch into the piece then step down to a smaller bit and drill another 1/4 inch. Using steps you are comfortable with get down to about a 3/4 to 1 inch hole and drill to depth. Now using the pre drilled steps as guides drill out to the largest hole. This will cause much less strain on the bit and the drill. Maybe saving the chuck if that is what caused the damage.
Stopping was the right choice. Thank you for sharing this experience.
I think I can speak for a lot of people by saying, we appreciate you sharing this. I watch a fair amount of content on wood working and lets say there are a lot of edited projects out there. Some edited more successfully than others.
As sorry as I am for you going through this...I am glad you shared it!!
I wish I could give you two thumbs up. I was laughing and crying. I have had those days in the shop where absolutely everything went wrong and you just have to walk away. Luckly no injury so that is a plus. I can't wait for your next project, it will go better! You rock.
Been there! Sooo many times. Thanks for sharing. Btw, what keyless chuck did you get?
Still have all of your fingers.... Thanks for showing the issues you had that we can definitely relate to. Can have issues with nice tools too.
Probably my favorite video you have made to date. As odd as it sounds, I love seeing those I look up to fail. I like to see how they handle adversity, dissapontment, and what might seem as failure. The abilty to push through or even call it quits is a skill in it of itself. We are all human sometimes we make mistakes, sometimes we just have unlucky days. But it's those hard times that make us grow to who we are today. I appreciate you posting this. You are by far my favorite woodworker/maker. :)
This video was incredible. I was wincing when you started cutting the blanks on the sawstop. With the video title I had a suspicion of what was coming. I would be fuming!! Impressed by your positive attitude.
While I'm very sorry for all your troubles and costly problems in the shop, I very much appreciate you sharing it anyway. As I (and I'm sure others) find it comforting to know that someone more skilled than I also had these days.
Also, a very cool project. Love that you showed multiple ways to do the project with different tools and supplies.
Keep your head up and keep getting in the shop and making something.
Thanks for sharing your nice work and your bad day. It shows this can happen to the best of us. Continue what you're doing, you are such a great CZcamsr 🙂
Tough day, still great content. Thanks for your positivity David!
This is relatable content. Thank you for sharing your good experiences as well as your less than great.
Definitely best to know when to quit sometimes. Safety first. I've had to do it once with the lathe.
My dad made me a wooden coffee mug with a stainless steel tumbler insert, the same as these basically. First time I took it to the coffee shop and used it there was an almighty cracking noise- the metal tumbler had expanded from the heat with enough force to split the wood right along the grain. I was gutted, I really liked that mug. I glued it back together and use it as a pen holder.
hmmm. that's good to know. I may give myself some wiggle room when I return the the project.
Sorry you had such a rough day. Staying positive in those moments can be tough, especially when they keep happening. I think you touched on an important point about stopping before you got hurt. What happened to you at the table saw was probably just a couple of honest mistakes, but sometimes things like that happen when focus isn't sharp enough to be in the shop. Not saying yours wasn't, but as a general lesson for others I think it is important to know when to step away from the tools. Thanks for keeping it real, as always.
Hey Dave!, don’t forget to connect the Sawstop break again! Be save, have fun, be passionate and make something 👍
"I'm not even mad." I've made that face before. The face of a person barely containing their rage. Mine is usually accompanied by some choice language and throwing something across the room. Taking a driving break is a great idea, especially in a sweet ride like that. Congrats on surviving the week. Better luck next time. As my Zoomer kid would say, "Some days it just be like that." Thanks for sharing your pain. Solidarity, brother.
One of my favorite videos of yours! Not because I want you to fail (I wish you success only), however, I just like the way you handled it and the fact that you shared it. Almost nobody ever talks about off-days. I was looking forward to this after listening to the podcast.
That had to be mega frustrating but was good of you to show it and lets us mere mortals know we are not alone in making mistakes.
