  • I just had so much cardboard laying around that decided to try something REALLY simple, quick, easy and funcional! Let's say you need a few of these to sit some friends occasionally. You can make a bunch of these, dismount them and store in a drawer. You can always glue two or three layers to make them stronger. Cardboard is unexpectedly strong when you place in vertically!
    Thanks to my sister Sara for testing it out :D

    Cool! I made a cardboard stool a couple of years ago after seeing one on the net and it stood up well - it lasted over a year. Cardboard is really fun to work with. :)

  • @dagarou
    @dagarou Před 7 lety +62

    Come on, everyone is always complaining that she doesn't upload enough videos and now they complain because this is not elaborate enough. Christiana, I really enjoy simpler videos like this. Great job!

      Thank you Daniel, I appreciate that :) And yes, this was just a simple idea, this it totally different from most of my projects. I mean, this isn't REALLY a project, if more like an experiment and a share of an idea that might become something interesting to you guys.

  • @timwhite9255
    @timwhite9255 Před 7 lety +19

    Now imagine it made with scrap pieces of plywood or steel! nice design, you could make a permanent stool like that out of anything.

  • @christianbuzio9468
    @christianbuzio9468 Před 7 lety +4

    U made a real project! There is concept, material, tool and dirty but skilled hands! A project is an idea that takes a body in real life, no matter how easy or not it was to realize. And your delicate and gracious story telling is just the sweetest taste of a perfect cooked recipe. Thank for sharing and delight us with ur creativity skills....
    Btw, what a nice black hoodie, whe we will see it in the shop? ;) respects and hugs from Italy..

    This looked fun so I made one, just less neat and tidy. Works pretty well at 20" tall by 12" wide. Nice extra shop seat, and this would be welcome when moving into a place: break down a cardboard box and give yourself a place to sit!

    Brilliant! You don't need expensive power tools or fancy hard woods to make stuff. Anyone - anyone - can find materials and equipment to hand, get involved in crafts, develop skills, create. Thank you, Cristiana. You're an inspiration!

  • @DuffyWeiss
    @DuffyWeiss Před 7 lety

    That was great - that's the ultimate upcycling project! In the US - there are cardboard recycling dumpsters for nearly every business, so there's definitely no shortage of materials. And yes, if you wanted some heavier duty stools, you could use plywood. Anyway, great video - and keep up the great work! A+

    • @vitamincisgoodforme
      @vitamincisgoodforme Před 7 lety

      yeh i think this would actually work better as a bedside table/laptop stand.. considering some people weigh more then the test subjects in this vid lol If i were to use it as a stool i would shorten it and use it as a foot stool - not standing on it tho just for things like putting on shoes or cutting nails outside lol

  • @JamesSleeman
    @JamesSleeman Před 7 lety +3

    Double wall corrugated cardboard is surprisingly strong and very useful material to have around the place. You should gather together some weights and put it to the test, I think you would be surprised how much weight your stool could bear.

  • @8220trenton
    @8220trenton Před 7 lety +1

    I will use this!!

  • @jaekaelae1198
    @jaekaelae1198 Před 7 lety +1

    In order to make it even stronger you should add another layer of cardboard to the seat and orientate the new layer so that the lines run perpendicular compared to the first layer.

    • @GetHandsDirty
      @GetHandsDirty  Před 7 lety +1

      Great suggestion, yes. The base would also gain a lot from having another layer glued to it

  • @bobamy5560
    @bobamy5560 Před 7 lety

    If people try this and stool fails... what you want to take note of is the corrugated thickness. This is triple wall CCB. Most corrugated you get is either single or double flute. If you have trouble finding triple flute, you can glue multi pieces together to make the thickness you desire. The best way is hotmelt or a glue gun.
