I just found you! I am so happy I did! My only regret is that I found just one video. Could you please do a ton more? Just kidding! Perfectly explained, a lot of great information and precise demonstrations! Of course I signed and I pressed the bell. 👍👍👍👏
Hey! I just found your channel.. It's great! I have subscribed. You're very good teacher. And You're informative and interesting. I'm so excited I've discovered you on youtube.
Basically that´s what IKEA does with most of it´s furniture just on an industrial level. This example is pretty good. You can coat the whole thing with shellac at the end and make it really strong and sturdy and also sand and paint it, so you can even make real furniture out of it and nobody would be able to tell it is not just painted cardboard.
That is 70% sure mate. I am a cardboard designer and work with different cardboard thickness you have a wide range to choose from called b 3mm , e 1.5mm , EB flute 4.5mm thick. Boxboard from around 0.8mm to like 0.38mm and below that is like paper and many more. To each material you work to thickness. Basicly it is very interesting what you can get out of cardboard engineering is using mainly in a temporary display for a promotion product but also in the shop front window display could be high end or just standard retail. Furniture will not last long in every day usage all the pends of finishing off. Trust me. So IKEA is using card based designs but a bit more engineered and so it last for long and prepared for mass production more likely cheaper than anything else. whatever.
@@donmjurczelllo6428 Yes I know. They use it as cheap material and coat it with foils so it does not absorb too much moisture. It also does not have to hold much or long. And you rarely use a shelf really, most of the time it just sits there. Cardboard is awesome stuff. I am an automotive design engineer so we work with plastic and sheet metal mostly, obviously for completely different applications, safety is relevant, flammability and so on. But none the less cardboard is awesome.
Wonderful and helpful info, I'm always working with cardboard trying to make it strong and durable for crafts, one thing I would love to do is to make it waterproof, that would be even better when it comes to sculpting garden figures or outdoor furniture. Do you have any ideas?
Wow!! Great table. I live in a van in Vancouver Bc Canada. I'm thinking of going to live in a minivan. I was thinking, could cardboard, if I use multiple layers, like 4 to 10 layers, be a good insulator?
TINY CAMPERS website has lightweight and inexpensive ideas for cardboard furniture and other vanlife stuff. (His channel name is all caps. He worked on a Sienna a lot.)
For the flat sheets, what would happen if I bonded all the sheets...THEN cut them with woodcutting tools? Would the sheets delaminate or catch on the saw? For that, I would probably use a different adhesive so that the adhered surfaces would be uniform in texture and thickness.
Thank you! I shall use this info to build a cat tree. Our panther is a big boy with adhd, so sturdy yet cheap seem the perfect solution. Can I use some non-toxic glue? (He will bite and chew anything.) Cheers!
Really good sense. Adding a layer of packaging paper with a good paste (cellulose plus PVA) improves the appearance and adds greater strength. A presentation suggestion - an occasional smile would enhance the delivery! Remember, it’s FUN.
thats inappropriate to comment on someone smiling or not based on what /you/ want. you can tell they are good-natured and enjoying themselves, so back off.
that is not durable you are gluing just surfaces that after a while will delaminate, also you are using thermic glue that other than being not environmental friendly is harder than the cardboard and rigid so you are having and harder body pulling - stretching a soft cardboard surface...
A great hands-on explanation of structural engineering. Thank you.

All cardboard crafters should take engineering 101. Thanks.
Thank you very much for such a helpful video! Best wishes to you from the UK!
I was looking fo cardboard plywood and Im glad I found this.
this is so interesting! Wish there was more :)
Love it! Cardboard is my favorite building material.
So wait a minute! Why have I only just found you?!! Excellent video. So informative. I will never under estimate a triangle again! New sub 👍
best cardboard craft tutorial i have ever seen
Excellent content.

And yet the print finish could be or can be stunning.
@@donmjurczelllo6428 Yes, sure.

this is amazing
Thanks David!
Nice work. Thank you for the explanations. My students will now build some cardbaord furniture. Arigato.
Love this! Thank you.

great video please continue to make more
Nice video. Quick tip. Always run your cardboard in the same direction. Use a PVA glue vs hot glue. Titebond II or III are great products.
Great video David
Great video, thank you so much 🌹

@@LivingWithCognitiveDissonance thank you

Dave, you are freaking awesome! Do you mean creating "Honeycomb structures strengthening the structure?"
3M can't spray glue would probably work better and so would wood glue and you could even water down the wood glue to make it more quantity
Very helpful, thanks!!

Thank you. Could you make the version without a glue by hooks?
Great idea
Realy good tips thx so much ^^
Can you design a ramp using triangles that can support the weight of a car?
Thank you very much!
Dude youre osom! Thanks for the knowledge, greetings from chile.
Good

Nothing on this is "super" nor "thought" nor "perfectly fitted" nor "engineered", very poor work.
post a better video then 🥱
someone needs a hug..
