Good one Kay!!!
Such a gorgeous book - each shed is unique and inspiring, and I love all the tiny details Kotite features to help readers imagine how to create their own She Sheds th-cam.com/users/postUgkxe9yi0sulKgsp0VJJCIrLWWkvVqcU7LFR . The feature on Dinah's Rustic Retreat is like something from a fairy tale. It's really inspiring to see how creative all these ordinary people are in making beautiful and useful spaces on a modest scale.
I have a friend who threw plywood on his cabinets until they decided on countertops. His wife painted them & used leaves to stencil them. 20 years later, still there.
The person who said this looks "crappy", never mind. I am a 77 year old grandmother. I have always appreciated the unusual and I love this. You are blessed with creativity and artistic ability. You may think this is temporary, bet it's still in place in five years. Good job!
70 yer old grandma here- I agree. Looks great, gives visual interest to a kitchen with plain cabinets. Love the contrast between the wood look and the gray.... I couldn’t imagine what you were thinking of doing with those cutouts at the beginning
I love the uniqueness of it.
I agree the epoxy is probably all you need to make this permanent. I enjoyed watching ths . Thanks for sharing.
Very creative! Not many would put that much effort into a finished countertop let alone what was intended to be temporary one. That just shows the passion you have for your craft!
Wow, that is simply incredible. Who would've thought that you could make plywood look like that? Hmmm, a plywood countertop, eh! I thought it would be just a plain old countertop but decided to watch anyway. Am I ever glad I did. You are so creative and skilled, to-boot! I'm hooked!
I'm always awed by the creative mind, and seeing it in action is just incredible. Thanks.
Josh that was amazing! Just the idea, never mind the execution of it all. Loved the 'spalling' effect and the burning. Your brain works in a wonderful way. Only worry is the lack of safety stuff you use to protect your eyes, lungs and hands. You are destined for great things but you need your eyes and hands Josh. Please take care.
Been watching you since the Potters house. Not very long, but long enough to know you don't do anything simple and normal. You are amazing and brilliant. Love the counters, and so much of your other work.
Your awesome Josh.
Same.
Wow Joshua, kitchen looks awesome, a 2 pack epoxy resin clear coat will hold up well to kitchen use including heat. Easy to repair scratches with another filler coat and heat gun will blend in seamlessly. Or using coloured epoxy resin in knot holes, to make unique rivers etc.. Congratulations on your new home may you both have many years of enjoyment in it together. Victoria Australia xo
Totally randomly ran into this. Dude I love where you’re going with this. You took boring plywood and gave it character. You are an artist carpenter I admire that. A lot of tiny house people have to use wood countertops due to weight constraints. All of them use some kind of epoxy to protect it.
When you ask an artist carpenter to 'just make a plywood top' :'D
It's a quickie temporary countertop a good time to practice different techniques.
They say art is in the eye of the beholder. So it doesnt matter what we think this is what Josh creates. I think the counter is unique and bold. It doesnt look like every other cookie cutter boring counter top out there. Josh is his own man, he isnt afraid to do something different. Keep up the dream Josh!
Your creativity is unlimited and inspiring. Thank you for sharing NY-USA
What a great talent you are. Thank you for sharing with us. And I love what you are doing for your friend, Alex also. Wonderful!
I love you for your creativity and accuracy. You really make your art look good.
That's awesome Josh! A little epoxy, and it's good for a long time ♥
Wow you are talented and I love seeing you work on projects.
That's really cool! I'm glad that she liked it. I can't wait to see your whole house come together ♥
You will have to let us know how it holds up over time..
WoW Josh, you are so talented. Glad I happened upon your channel. So interesting.
Love, love, love the look you created!! I've never seen plywood look so good.
Happy Wife - Happy Life !
Excellent project...Salud from Mexico
I AM OBSESSED WITH THIS COUNTERS! FROM THE FIRST TIME I SAW THIS UNTIL NOW, OBSESSED! And I've been trying to find someone who can duplicate this for my kitchen! I MUST MUST HAVE THIS FOR MY KITCHEN! 🤯🤯🤯🤯😳😲😲😳
I love the countertop; honestly I would never have thought to do something that incredible!
That was Awesome bro!!!!! Anyone that can think of something in their mind and manifest it into reality is an Artist! 👍👍👏👏
Wow this is great. What an awesome idea. It flows through the room.
Amazing and beautiful! Thanks, Josh, for letting us watch. Not just a craftsman; an artist for sure!
Nice job. The wood looks like vintage sinker cypress like that recovered from rivers etc.
Love this! Make a big statement with a low budget. I love how creative your projects are.
Your profile pic is horrifying
Paul Flynn thanks! 😎
You are so creative, all the effort and hardwork you put in really paid off, the work top looks great, they literally look like like real pieces of wood, love the self leveller idea as a contrast surface. I am sure you will get lots of customers who would love you to customise their kitchens. I hope you go from strength to strength, you work so hard you deserve to be successful.
Wow, Josh, you never make anything ordinary. You really keep things interesting. An artistic countertop...amazing! You know cement is a good countertop material also. Think of the fossils you could put in that...😊👍🏻🌿
I was thinking the same thing! I wonder if it’s possible to put a screen over the existing “temporary” countertop and pour the concrete over the top of it when you make the forms? That would be pretty cool if you could! 😎
Wow , that is amazing ! We put in temporary plywood countertops and they’re just that, temporary plywood countertops ! You took a temporary countertop and made it into a true piece of art! Pretty awesome
One of Man's greatest inventions, 3/4 " Birch Ply. As a purest, I like a clean edge when it comes to showing off the layers of grain. This came out amazing. I just think it would work way better on ply wood base cabinets.
That's awesome Josh, you took a boring piece of plywood and made a unique and beautiful counter top wow!!!!
Stone coat countertops makes a great epoxy system that will make your countertop very durable. Plus it will bring out your cool looking stain effect. Great job just as it is very nice work.
Agree! Stonecoat does some amazing countertops. And their on TH-cam!!
When I do my countertops, I'll be using Stonecoat epoxy!!
I began following after I saw you on Curiosity Inc. I have so enjoyed your artwork and designs. You are very creative and talented. Thank you so much for posting,
Same with me..
The counter is amazing! I love your artistic personality!
It pays to marry an artist - you get stuff that NO ONE else will have. Pretty cool design, so I like your idea to preserve it if you guys are still happy with it. Makes a super cool contrast to the stark white cabinets too.
That is so cool man , very impressive.
I love this so much. Just stunning work!!
I don’t know how anyone could dislike this. Your creativity is just amazes me.
Oh my god! This is simply amazing!! You are far too modest!
You're too kind.
This came up in my feed. First thing I thought...what the crap is he doing? A plywood counter? I am glad I watched. Very interesting. I might have tried some type of coloring in the epoxy, but still cool.
MAN that looks awesome!!!!
nothing wrong with ingenuity and design!!! especially when it is cost effective!!!
Awesome - stunning - innovative - work of art Josh you are so brilliant!
That top would look even " more " awsome , like you say with epoxy resin but in BLUE with white swirls to look like water it would have a beach effect ...( just thinking out loud from one artist to another ) LOL gr8 job though.
Exactly what I was thinking ... Would epoxy be durable/repairable longterm?
Dude, you are super-talented!
I am planning to create concrete countertops with a wood slide out cutting board. Your technique just gave me the blue print on how I am going to do it. Thank you for your creativity and being brave enough to share your work with the world...Great job thank you!
Really unique! Like it.. Congrats...creative.
I mean, say what you like about this particular piece, but there is absolutely no doubt that this man absolutely swung for the fences with this one.
I personally don't love it, but I do love the fact that you took this kind of risk with a project like this.
Nice job. You made it your own. Looks good I wish I had one like that. Thanks for showing off your skills. Job well done.
I think it's really unique and cool looking. Love your creativity!
I absolutely love it!!! A true artist.
Happened by this in chance. I appreciated this. Trying to figure out how I can re-do my kitchen that fits my budged. Examples like this build my confidence. Thank you!
Love the counter top! And to those that don't like it................I was taught........"If you can't say something nice.....DON'T SAY ANYTHING!!"
Very unique! I love your ideas.
Nice creativity , better than plain old plywood for a (possibly) temporary fix . 😉
That’s so wild !! Glad you had this opportunity with this unique canvas to play around with and see what works and what doesn’t and what techniques you’ll use again in other projects. Looks badass !!
That is amazing! Great job
Very cool! You’ll only get better as you do more of those countertops. 💃🏾🕺
"Looks better in person" you say? Well it looks freaking fantastic on TH-cam! Awesome job man!!!
Love the creativity. That's how great designs come to life. Trial and error. Once perfected you could definitely sell to customers
Beautiful and creative!!!
That looks awesome. You are a very creative guy.
Dude this is awesome
What an interesting project!! I’ve never seen anything like that before!
Awesome love everything you do is unique
Amazing and very imaginative!
Very creative! Has lots of textures and depth, well done! 👏👏👏
Absolutely love it! It's beautiful and unique!!!!
Excellent gift and talent you have!!!
Very unique! I like it! 👍👍
Found your channel through Curiosity inc. I’m someone who watches cleaning videos to get motivated to clean my house since I have monsters (kids) ages 5, 3 and 21 months who make constant messes. The potter house showed up on my feed and I thought cleaning up a hoarder house would be interesting to see. I ended up binge watching the series up this 3am some nights. Then I head over to your channel and started watching your videos with my husband and it has motivated him to finish projects around our own house. I really really REALLY love how you did the counter top. So stunning. Would be perfect too for a counter top in a laundry room to fold laundry on.
Hey thanks so much!!
What a creative mind. Love it.
Everything you touch is golden - this is fabulous!!!
This looks pretty cool and i love that you like to experiment. You never know what you will find. Neat for a temporary one so I can only imagine what a permanent one would look like!
absolutely beautiful!!!
This is amazing idea ,look fantastic ,probably if you spend on it few more hours it will look even better,i wish to have one like this
This is such a great creative idea, and you have very good skills!! I would never remove that countertop! It's one of a kind, which I love! Thanks for sharing with us!
Wonderful, unexpected design idea! I think you need a few ammonites, my favorite fossil.
Holy flip this is amazing! I think a nice thick coat of resin will make it hold up fine. Even if some scuffs and nicks get in over time though, it's the kind of surface that will just get more interesting over time.
dude that is fantastic! thanks for inspiring me. my thought was to do a plywood counter top with marine grade baltic birch but now you just inspired me to kick it up to notches unknown to mankind.
I love your creativity and talent! Very interesting.
Awesome job. Hell of a lot more effort than I think nearly anyone else would do for a temporary solution haha. I imagine you do incredible professional work if you add this much attention to detail on something you will plan to rip up anyway.
Wow wish you lived in Australia you would be making my kitchen benches
Looks very cool love it. Very creative. 😁
This is beautiful and so unique. You are incredibly talented.
Indeed!
That looks bad ass!!! I'd find a way to keep it!
You sir, have a beautiful mind. Love your creativity and am so appreciative to see your process. Thanks so much for sharing your passion.
Some cool ideas; I'm impressed that you went to so much effort for a "temporary" work top, but a great way to prototype and explore options for your final version. Love the faux spalting solution for the screws.
This is so cool. I love the look you achieved.
Wow! I am usually very traditional in my preferences - but I love this! So cool!
Looks awesome!!!
Holy shit! Awesome workmanship. 👍🏻 so beautiful. 😊
It's 2021 and that amazing counter still looks great! I love the whole idea because it's so unique!!
You are just so creative no matter what the task! OOAK!
Oh my gosh Josh that looks so cool
Wow looks great!
