This is the story of building a desk shelf. But it is not an ordinary desk shelf, in fact, it is a knock off of another knock off an extraordinary desk shelf. Yes, a double knock off. It also happens to be my entry into the #RocklerTryThatChallenge competition.

Discipline is a Choice
มุมมอง 288ปีที่แล้ว
It’s easy to say yes to a free doughnut, to a bite of a brownie, to just scroll a little bit more before you get started on that project, to just do a little more research by watching one more TH-cam video. Ah yes, distraction will always be the easy choice. Discipline is the hard choice. But it is a choice. And this video is about making that choice. Inspired by Jocko Willink's "Disicpline Equ...
Why you should play with knives
มุมมอง 4382 ปีที่แล้ว
What do knives, a phone and doughnuts have in common? Yes, exactly. They are all featured in this video. But, this short movie is also about humankind’s latest addiction-media consumption-and how sometimes we are better off bored than mindlessly scrolling through that thing we most like to scroll through.

Why you feel behind in life
มุมมอง 1562 ปีที่แล้ว
We can control when we pee. We can control when we eat. And we can control how many packs of Mochi we buy from Trader Joe's (though it can be difficult). Unfortunately, we can't control our thoughts. This video seeks to explain why.
What to do if they don't text back
มุมมอง 2912 ปีที่แล้ว
Obsessing over someone who doesn’t text you back is characterized by several distinct stages. The first stage is a happy one, mostly filled with relationship fantasizing. As time goes on you enter the next stage where you create reasonable stories as to why they aren’t texting you back. These stories slowly take an unfavorable turn as you begin questioning the quality of your original text… Fea...

Nice work and appreciate the chill vibes!
Thank you!
Genuinely enjoyed this. Good job. Quite a project end to end and something of personal beauty and satisfaction.
Thanks so much for your comment, I really appreciate it!
the "i dont feel like i need to narrate this part but I do feel like you should continue hearing my voice" was very funny hahaha
thanks for watching!
Hi there! Do you have the specs/dimensions on a paper?
At 00:55 is the page with all my measurements, but I can send you a clearer picture if you leave your email.
@@wayofthelatebloomer hi yes! Do you have an TH-cam email that I could email to?
Awesome videos! My only suggestion is a different outro.
haha, I'm workin' on it!
i am a huge fan of van neistat. and this reminded me of his style.i really enjoyed this and my thing is whittling. 😄
Subscriber #357 here, nice work on the cam lock. Also liked your rough cut with the jig saw, followed up by the router template. Sanding is the worst. I try to find projects that require a minimal amount of sanding.
I appreciate your comment! Not having bigger tools like a spindle sander made sanding that inner curve tough, but it's kinda fun figuring out work arounds when you don't have the ideal tool. Thanks for watching and subscribing
Love that you're showing the "regular guy" version of all the fancy youtube woodworkers we all watch nowadays. I feel the same way when I'm in my garage trying to figure my way through another wood project and constantly bumbling along. Good stuff, thanks
I appreciate that, thanks for watching! We got to make due with what we have, and if it takes 10 times longer, so be it
Big big big dislike there is to manys way to do it you complicate your self buddy
I am a beginner and open to suggestions. How would you have gone about it? Thanks for watching
Very cool great job
Thank you, appreciate you commenting and watching!
All the clamps 🤣🤣 good job! Never seen a stand like this. Good attention to detail
thank you... I could seriously use some more clamps...
I don´t get it. Is he trolling or something ? The whole thing can only hold one phone ? It takes so much room on your desk. Also, it looks like it's really prone to tipping sideways.
One of my goals with making this was for it to also be decorative, hence it's a little larger. A lot of the phone stands I saw online are really small and don't necessarily serve a "decorative" purpose. I've found that it isn't prone to tipping sideways, but with a heavier phone and with the handle pushed out, it is prone to tip forward. Thanks for watching.
I like the idea and execution of the cam clamp. A similar idea has been in my head for a project I need to build for my wife. Good job on the narration, very dry and funny.
I appreciate that, thank you! There are probably a lot of different ways you could make the cam clamp, but I found the hand saw + file was very satisfying
I was waiting for the chisel to slice through a finger
Oh man, I could definitely improve my technique, haha
There were a few moments I was worried about that too 😬🩹
Enjoyed this more than I expected to :) Well done all round and I am happy to be subscriber number 280 :)
I appreciate you watching and being #280, it's been slow progress and I truly appreciate each and every subscriber, thank you!
Great video! Very inspirational to anyone with a limited selection of tools and space. Loved how you made good use of your track saw. Keep the videos coming!
Having only one powered cutting tool has definitely forced me to think outside of the box, I appreciate the comment!
No reason to knock Harbor Freight for a dull chisel. That part is on you. It doesn't take more money to sharpen your tools. You literally have sand paper glued to plywood just like a sharpening station. Learn to sharpen your tools, you could even make a video showing you as a beginner.
That's a good idea, thank you for the suggestion!
Interesting use of your track saw, kudos to you for your ingenuity.
I appreciate that, thanks for watching!
This video caught my attention from start to finish. What an exquisite phone stand and for us to bear witness to the process was just awesome. I'm not a huge fan of DIY videos but you have made me a proud subscriber. Look forward to your next video
thank you for watching!
Great video and narration, I just wish he used more clamps. 4:21 is absolute gold lol. This channel completes me. Can't stop, wont stop.
If I had the clamps, I would! haha, thanks for watching!
Very cool!
Thank you!
👏👏 very cool & innovative project. My favorite thing about your videos is the narration and cinemetography! Looking forward to the next video! ~ Your #1 Fan ☝️
Thank you for being my number one fan, I am honored, humbled, and happreciative!
he's a knock off comedian too, a good one
haha, why thank you!
Hearing you say fourth inch instead of quarter inch drove me bonkers, nice job though lol
Why thank you. Come to think of it, I do hear a lot of people say quarter inch rather than fourth inch, in their videos. Why is that?
Amazing how your blatant unoriginality is what made you so original...
I will accept this comment as a blatant compliment. Thank you
I love that you show the mistakes of your work and take humor in learning through the process. We don't to get to see many of the failures of wood working youtube channels and only the successes. Keep up the great work
That's very true, and the mistakes are just as helpful in learning the skill as the successes. Thanks for watching!
Lol!
I like you humor. Nice project.
I appreciate you watching, thank you!
I’m currently on step 0, “binge woodworking videos on TH-cam” and the algorithm knew I needed this video. Good stuff here.
That is how it begins! And it actually never stops... Thanks for watching!
Great video - liked the funny narration and was edited very well … the 2x speed was a nice touch.
Why thank you, little did you know there were also some parts that were 3X as fast!
Wouldn’t someone knocking off your knock off be a triple knock-off?
Yes, that is correct. And it would be an honor... especially since I am personally not making (or losing) any money off this project.
Why no 45Deg chamfer?
I guess cause I wasn't sure if that would be compatible with the rounded corners
Hell yeah. Build real furniture out of solid wood and hold back the tide of poorly-made, overly-expensive, flatpack garbage furniture!
damn straight!
I’m a beginner and love my Kreg ACS. Nice to see TH-camr’s like you and Foureyes Furniture using it. Nice project!
Awesome man, yeah I don't have much space, so it is super convenient and very versatile, very happy with my investment. Thanks for watching!
Great video! Inspiring!
Thank you!
Wow this video was informative, easy to follow and had great comedic timing! The desk shelf monitor stand came out beautifully
Why thank you!
Bravo! This is awesome! Instant subscriber!
Thank you, I appreciate it!
Nice shelf! Gives me hope to find my thing 🤟🏼
Sometimes you have to try several things, before you find THE thing!
I like your thing and I am proud of you, very straightforward and honest. It takes commitment and persistent to not succumb to the distractions. ❤😊 It’s obvious that you like what you do, and that the key, you enjoy it, and that’s how it became your thing. 🎉
Thank you!
Wow. What an impressive shelf! I still haven’t found my thing and I’m almost 70!
It's never too late to find your thing!
Wow, what a beautiful piece of furniture. That hall tree is one of a kind. Keep doing your thing! It just keeps getting better and better.
Why thank you, I will keep keepin' on!

Thanks!!
Note to self: Don't build a desk.
haha, unless you really need one to fit specific dimensions...
Great video. And congrats on the perseverance! What was the pipe tube kit you used?
Thanks! If you search for "Tinktubes" it will show up! If you have questions you can set up a call with them to help with your design.
@@wayofthelatebloomer Awesome thanks! All the best!
🤗 *PromoSM*
Good job! This is me on every DIY project but I keep pushing. Happy mistakes.
Every project is a slog, but the achievement is very rewarding
Can relate
thanks for watching!
great video, awesome desk. i’m happy you finished and i’m grateful you shared
Thanks for the kind words!
It's crazy how one day you decided to build a desk and despite all the challenges, you still achieved your goal. This is very inspiring and the desk looks beautifully made. Great job!
Thank you Chadina! Without the challenges, there would be no learning!
Good job bro! Keep up the grea Woodworking!
Thanks man!
