This showed up in the algorithm after years of woodworking. A love letter indeed, thank you to everyone involved and the trees whom we care for😘
Such an artistic way of educating people.
Thank you Tom
Happy 10 year anniversary. Still one of the best videos on the 'tubes.
How does this incredible masterpiece of a video only have a couple hundred thousand views after 10 years? I'm ranking this as one of the most under-rated and highly educational videos that I've seen on interwebs. I followed Casey years ago and have been making my way through Van's video collection. I now feel like I've found the next level - the grand master -and now see my previously watched videos with a clean pair of eyes, and a 2:1 ratio.
Mos’ ppl 2 bizzy watching TikTok (adult version) . . .😎
Because anyone who works with plywood knows all this basic stuff already and people who don’t could care less. This seems like a introductory segment for a documentary or tv episode. Kind of a let down at the end of the video
I love this video just as much as I did when I watched it the first time!
I like how yt recommends this gem a good decade later, but i'm not mad. (torx > phillips)
Torx bits are practically life-changing. As a kid I remember hating how often I would strip out the heads of screws from shitty technique but torx is so much harder to mess up.
didnt even realise it was that old, so ahead of its youtube time
Found the beauty of plywood when I built my first work bench and then was it that I learned the types of woods. And Plywood is my lover now. Bench came out beautiful.
never would have thought a video about plywood would touch me so deeply to the core. now i feel like ive taken it for granted. i love the stuff, and always have a couple extra 2'x4' sheets around my workshop for spontaneous projects.
Bringing the sacred back into the work space. Definitely something magical about these videos :)
thank you for sharing your passion
I don't understand what I saw, but I found it beautiful.
I wish everyone in the world could teach and be taught like this. Treasure.
i was never interested in plywood in my life before but not gonna lie this video is f****ing captivating!
I love this video. Thank you.
I'm not sure why I watched this video. I really enjoyed it♥ Thank you.
I needed this knowledge and confidence with tools in my life. Many thanks ❤
This is amazing
Proper definition of True Art.
this deserves 10 million views
Always great innit.
How is this free to watch. What a work of art.
OMG! What the impressive movie!
Thank you!
The Philips head screw is the joker of all building materials.
What the hell, why is a video about plywood one of the nicest ive seen on youtube
I need a master like mr. Sach's, to become a better filmaker like the Neistats
+Franco Isa Hey Franco just do it, why not?
+Walkertongdee truee!
this was the best
Thank you.
How do you achieve the shiny, compacted plywood edge seen in so many of your plywood uses? Sanding? Burnishing? Poly?
wow I've never seen this before, I love it.. Happy new year!
Happy New Year
Gr8 video!!very Van Neistat
Love it!!!!
This is very very artistic thanks for the lesson
My god this is brilliant film making
Beautiful
Alignment with the center of the earth...in perfect posture.
Bravo!!!
The first time I visited LA, I was amazed to be seeing the famous PLYWOOD sign
Absolutely Love This Video…! Very Well Done.
Great video
I never knew others had the same passion for plywood as me! 😊
thank you
How come I've only just found this channel?!?!
"Should be aligned with the center of the Earth" is a gorgeous phrase.
why?
@@oghaki5097 a poetic way of saying ‘vertically’
A lovely film
I love the video
Really cool video!
Came here from Wintergatan. Anyone else?
after minut 4 the video is superb
you're my hero
Actually a very useful video about the practicalities of working with plywood.
This was cool.
really looking forward to the tom sachs summer camp video about how to make a youtube video
now I know he would teach everything to Neistats to make a good movie.
Never in my life have I had a single thought about plywood. But here I am thanks to the almighty algorithm and it has been a journey.
That was not an orbital sander
I never skip that pre drilling!!
"You can feel it"
Spotted the Jean Prouve table at 2:59 😍
I’m in love
For the first half of the video I thought it was well shot and when Van started talking all the shit and style choices just made sense
This is amazing!! thank you
8:10 holy shit. um i have something that needs fixing.
Me too. And I strongly recommend AvE, a friend of Mr. Sachs, who has an outrageously funny but educational product engineering review & teardown YT channel.
AvE turned out as an alt-right moron.
anybody know how he adds those handwritten overlays?
It was an education, thank you 😄
This is great, but my problem is that I don't know how to operate doors. Also, can you do a video on how to charge my cordless drill?
I hope to learn how to sweep.
Wonderful video. Sensuous.
Gives me Wes Anderson vibes 👌🏽
This is very tasty, thank you! (If it is possible could you add team and used music credits to info pls)
haven't you guys uploaded this video like 3 times already?
ooo nice....art, and craft (nb not "arts and crafts")... love it
Art
This is an Arthouse movie about the birth and journey of Ply Wood.
Anyone know the name of the second song?
"plywood doesnt spilt"
unless you screwing into the edge
unless you don't know how to handle it
Don’t we all split when pushed to the edge?
Anyone know the name of the first song?
Idk how I got her but I'm glad I did
I've never realized the simple beauty of plywood. Which is terrible, my dad was a carpenter and I love to skateboard... Cheers.
this video is fucking awesome
3/4" ACX 4X8...$36.95. What a time that was.
Love the segment on 'cam-out'. For safety sake, I would lose the tie when anywhere near the table saw. Actually, I would lose the tie the minute I enter the studio.
ok gotcha! that makes sense
Prevent cam-out? Use Torx-headed screws my friend.
We use torx exclusively in my shop, they will however, still cam out if proper screw driving technique is not employed.
Plywood is a delicious looking sandwich. Yes sir! This was freakin beautiful
Interesting video, and good stuff for beginners. I too love plywood, though it sure seems to be getting expensive these days! I also like the driving power of the Robertson (square) head over Phillips, but few hardware stores carry the square head. The only thing I would have added about Phillip head drivers is that worn bits won't properly grab the screw either. Anyway, my 2 cents. Thanks for shooting and posting this video!
haha 8 years ago saying it was expensive. now its even crazier.
I am a time traveller come from 2022. BUY ALL THE PLYWOOD YOU CAN IN 2014 - NOW!
I hate Phillips with a passion. I go torx drive head screws and only resort to Phillips when there are no other options.
GRK fasteners are my go to...
@@qfudgedoggycan you explain why?
@@PiLLO360 torx head driver bits have much better engagement with the screw head. They rarely slip and strip out the heads like a Phillips does. They also seem to slip much less that a Robertson (square) bit does....like whenever I'm doing Kreig pocket screws. Wish those things were Torx.
Is that @vanneistat I hear narrating around 6:43?
Back in the days when you didn’t need to be a millionaire to afford plywood
3/4 " $75 a sheet at Home Depot which is not even 3/4....it's 23/32.. You don't have a riving knife on your table saw making it very dangerous for a kickback event, or a small piece of plywood to ride up over the blade pulling your hand into it. Philips bits by original design are made to cam out. They were used for metals. Their use in woodworking is an anachronism. Use GRK T-25 Torx screws. They almost never cam out.
FYI, this vid was made over a decade ago, hence anochronistic tendencies…
What's up with the Chinese subtitles? Is it cause they're in Chinatown? If I'm missing something obvious, sorry in advance :D
Educational.

Its where I get all these wonderful techniques.
Late as usual. Best art film I've seen in a while. And...... the sweet, sweet sound of a PM66. I'll never not know that sound.
There are extra scenes in this one. :]
You can still get camout if you use a standard philips driver with a JIS screw and vica verca
Avoiding camout has more to do with proper technique and focus than with the flavor of drive.
Van Neistat is bringing me to strange places at 3am ... plywood... ok
Poetry. The only realm of literature which causes you to learn things about plywood.
... I don't know either.
❤
Fastest 10 minutes of my life. I kept thinking, "this is so Neistat"...and sure enough, it was.
So true just the angles
