Beautifully done! something deeply satisfying about watching a competent person do a hard job well.
That's what she said...

😂
baw bee Nepinak I think that carpentry takes a lot of trial and error and learning how to build using TH-cam, but then it needs to be put into practice.

Glen, you got woodworking skills unlike anyone I've ever seen. So much glamour and pride in your works. I love watching you roll out piece after piece. So tell me bud...Where in the world did you get your PROFESSIONAL SKILLS? I aced Shop way back in HS, got all A's. We never did anything like this here. YOU ARE GOLD ! Thanks for posting, and I am subscribed.
Hey thanks Chris. I hope I don't disappoint you but im self taught. I learned by trial and error plus a little patience. When I purchased my house in 2012 I bought tools an very little furniture. Been tinkering since then.
Awesome work. Very modern. I love the way the white paint and stained wood look together
+mascottie
Thank you.
craftsmanship is perfect, the voice over, audio, camera movement, and most specially the table! wow. we can achieve global peace by creating and not by destroying.
I don't have all tools to make one but watching your video how you make the table is very enjoyable. thanks for sharing
Damn. Masking tape to reduce tear out. I'd never thought of that. Thanks, Man.
The end result there looks REALLY nice. You've got some talent, I just wish I had access to all those tools!
Looks freaking amazing, but you have so many tools xD
+ExcuseMyCharisma Most everything can be done with hand tools, it just takes more work.
Young Sir I pray you are teaching someone these awesome skills that you have !!
Man For some reason,Just watching this video makes me happy :)
That's Great thanks for watching!
How can one make this without a garage full of power tools?
+duvallkid1991
One can :). Need I make one with with less tools? Just have to be a little creative and my take longer. Still possible.
I love your tutorials and I would love to be able to make something like this but I live in a small apartment and dont have any power tools like a circular saw and all that,
+duvallkid1991 A circular saw can seems to be intimidated if you're not used to using it. They take up small footprint and they're very handed to have. It's really a key part of making, having the ability to make straight cuts.
Thats true I just wouldnt be able to use one in my apartment or on the property lol It would be easier for me to find someone who has the space and all the tools lol
That may take some fun out of it if you can't work on it at your own place. If there is a will there is a way im sure you'll figure it out. :)
wish I could do that😟
+Laila Butt wish I could buy that xD
Lol
c:
+Laila Butt i wish i have money to buy that :P
I wish I had the tools to do that.
Look at the original work of wood
good idea using the steel brackets that's why I like watching these videos you learn something from different people
the more of your DIY projects I watch, the more inspired I get as an amateur DIY'er! could we see a whole project that you use your table saw/router/band saw/sanding table and your cross cut jig?☺
Sure Ill put that on my to do list.
"when your partner's not paying attention, sneak the iron, use it, put it back like nothing ever happened."
K, I cracked up at that. Subscribed. Good work dude.
That's tight. You're the man!
Thanks!
great design !
I have watched this video around ten times now and I'm definitely going to build this desk for my new office thanks for the cool video keep it up!!
Longarms20 _ how did it go?
wow not only the table/desk is amazing but also the way of your work is just wow.
Thank you.
These are the things we need on this planet, Keep up the good heart
this dude has talents. 150 is worth it because good craftsmanship goes into the product.
Awesome man, pure gold. One of the best looking tables i have ever seen. I will try to copy it if you don't have any objections.
Thank you, go for it :)
Is there any chance that you have some project for it?
I don't understand your question. What do you mean by project for it?
something like blueprint with measurements, you did real awesome job, it is little hard to copy it if i don't know measurements and angles. :)
Unfortunately I don't have one at the moment. I hope to have one in the next few months.
Is this for sale?? I'd buy it...
This is PERFECT for gaming. The colors match.
the process looks really easy with all that tools.. the desk is pretty..
Always a pleasure to see a master of his craft at work. Cheers !
Nice! Let me just pull out a small loan of a million dollars to get an entire woodworking workshop to make this! :-)
Well you can do all of this with hand tools, you'll probably have a pretty nice workout as well! 😀
Well. Except the soldering, that may be rather difficult
+TheCyclonesEye Soldering is surprisingly easier than it looks like.
TheCyclonesEye Haha idk man, have you cut wood with a handheld circular saw or a hand saw? It's easy to ruin a cut.
The difficult part is getting wood clamps and spacers to give you good control - which is surprisingly expensive. That's where the miters, table saws, jig saws, etc. make the work easy and once again... No DIY'er will just have a professional grade woodworking workshop in their garage.
+Leowulf™ my step dad does, but he used to be a general contractor and many pieces he has were hand me downs
Loved watching this. Cool project master craftsman.
I'm not a big fan of any L.E.D. lights but you place and use them in a way that pulls it off for me i like it :) great video great design
The best DIY channel hands down.
Holy cow.. that is an incredible desk. Great craftsmanship!
Thank you
Hey sir ! What kind of wood you use ?
Can you tell me ?
I wish I had all those tools!!!
+BoomBoxBiZ Most everything can be done with hand tools, it just takes more work.
+Theodore not for the table only, just a really great set up ! One day though! Great video by the way.
***** He gots everything in the right places, you should setup a workshop sometime, it will be your best friend.
I wish I had those skills!
I like the raise above the cabinet I think if I build this I would give the same raise look above the shelves as well for the same under glow but that's just me. Love the work and it shows you put heat and soul into your craftsmanship.
Now, I need to convert your Modern desk from inches to cm and also see if I can turn your murphy bed from vertical to horizontal. So the two items combined would transform my small bedroom into a work of art and it will be all thanks to you and your videos. By the way, my brother is helping to make these items and he thinks your videos are excellent. Jodie from Australia
Thank you! :)
i dont know how i got here, but very impressive
Thank you
Same ....

DIY Creators hey I like this table how much would you charge me to make me one for my iMac 27 inch and for a printer I’m from new york
men this is amazing ! very good job ! big up from France ;)
+Swyff Moustache
Thank you and big ups From Florida .
yeeaahh la France !!
Am I the only one who thinks that this dude looks like a maxican Keralis (TH-camr)? :D
Good tutorial btw :)
xD
I keep thinking the same thing! Unless they're both polish?
I thought that his eyes are totally Keralis the second I saw him!
This guy is from another planet , absolutely brilliant !
Haha Thanks.
This is beautiful and something that you couldn't find with this amount of quality for a reasonable price. You have just inspired me to take this project on. Love the way you do these projects with no fancy tools or intimidation. Great video keep them coming!!
Awesome DIY! I can't wait to build mine!
Thank you
"AL's PRETTY CREATION's" ... im a master furniture maker I've been building contemporary furniture for 26 years now. my furniture incorporates lights, glass, water and mirrors. but in my 26 years of building houses and furniture. I have'nt seen many brothers like myself woodworking or cabinetmaking. especially here on youtube and I've been looking. I first discovered your videos when I was looking here on youtube for new ideals for floating shelf for a client when I stumbled across your floating bookshelf. your floating bookshelf was similar to a previous bookshelf I built a while ago. except mine had led changing lights and beveled glass inserts. when first seen your video. I thought it was going to be some silly ikea hack but to my surprise ... you did complete scratch build. keep up the good work excellent video.
Thank you for taking the time to watch. Im no expert by no means I just have a passion to create. So for someone that been doing this for 26 years its high praise to hear your thoughts.
id be interested to see your designs. do you have a website i can browse?
Probably out my price range but I'd like to see anyone's designs. It will help. Uploads please.
I'm not really good with saws and wood so I'll most likely never try one of your project but I love watching you! You're so creative :)
Thank you :D .
If you want to learn I will be teaching soon. If you don't have tools no worries check out this playlist th-cam.com/play/PLE6IL_H-YxnztDZbRLT9ItW2J7q2ejT40.html
This is gear to help viewers that want to start making.
You are a great craftsmen Sir. A joy to watch other people at the top of their game.
This is AMAZING! Why are there any dislikes to this video???????? I don't understand people...
found this randomly. Automatic sub.
Angel Castaneda same

Very good job. Greetings from Germany.
If i have your tools! Nice man i like
You got skills! I'm truly mesmerized by your work and detail. I personally find the size of the desktop to small in depth for my desktop and gaming monitors but for laptops it's fine. You just made me realize that I need more tools.
So I’m a little late to this video but I tried looking for the plans and this specific desk isn’t on the link you provided. Is it possible to get them back on there again??
he's got like every tool
what I tought lol impressive work but it's not diy anymore
Hey man this video was really great!
Thank you :)
wow! makes me wanna venture into this business
God bless you. You have an incredible gift. unfortunately I don't have the tools and equipment to attempt this. Outstanding job.
Thank you, Check out my limited tools series. Ill show you over time how to take simple hands tool to get more done. th-cam.com/play/PLE6IL_H-YxnztDZbRLT9ItW2J7q2ejT40.html
I appreciate it. I also subscribed to your channel. Thank you again.
tbh, was planning on passing out as soon as i hit the bed. got on my phone seen one of your videos now i cant stop watching them. great stuff, inspiring me to start doing my own builds also!
Good job
shit...
I love that design. XD
+Vive Vio Permana
Thank you.
good job
I don't know if you did the 'black box' riser on purpose, or by accident, because of the difference in height you mention in the video. Whichever it was, it looks brilliant. I really like the trim solution you've used on the drawer faces for this and the Murphy bed. It's a simple solution that gives a nice depth to the drawer faces.
I've watched a few of your videos now and I've got to say, your builds are incredible. I'm looking to build my next computer desk and these designs are so perfect.
You've earned my sub. Keep doing what you do; it's amazing. Thank you.
lol, dyi for professional woodworkers, with thousands of dollars in tools.
Perfect example of this generation not understanding that you actually have to practice a skill to become an expert. They just want it handed to them. I bet this guy started out like everyone else; making bird houses in shop class.
not everyone has thousands of dollars to buy professsional tools to practice with. if you have that much money to buy those tools, then you are not a amateur woodworker. with those tools, anyone could make this stuff yes, but for 95% of the people who watch, they will never buy the kind of tools you use, because to make it economical, they would have to be a professional and do only wood working to pay for those tools.
It takes time to acquire the tools. All of the tools you see in your grandpas garage were acquired over a period of years. First you get a circular saw and master it, then a year or so later get a miter saw and master it, and so on. My comment is implying that patience makes the tool shed.
Hell, start off with a circular saw and some garage sale hand tools. You'd be surprised how much you can accomplish with simple tools. And you'll probably appreciate the product much more when you have to use hand tools.
lol, how about you try doing some diy stuff with just a circular saw. would love to see how good that looks.
Like i said, you're part of the generation that doesn't want to work to become an expert. You saw The Matrix and equate TH-cam to uploading skills into Neo. Sorry, life doesn't work that way. I gave you advice, if you choose not to use it, then that is fine by me.
Teach a man to fish, or so they say.
OMG you scared me, be careful with your arm dude xD 2:26
Ricardo Landivar wat
I would have thought the parts where he was using a bench saw without the guard would have posed more of a threat to his arms. Wood glue really isn't that corrosive.
Ricardo Landivar I think you mean 2:14
Lrz 1 yes, you are right. From 2:07 to 2:14 xD
Ricardo Landivar yeah :p lol
Badass !
I wish I could make this for my husband....man this is awesome.
Lol to everyone complaining... DIY stands for Do It Your Self, it has nothing to do with what tools you have and don't have. If you wanna DO IT YOURSELF, then you need to find a way. If there is a will there is a way.
Gotta say great job by the way and thank you. I do not have all those tools, but its helps to understand the level of work that you are doing and how I can get there! A Lot of cool stuff, would love to have that in my home one day! though it's worthless without your skill. I'll ask God for that too!
Thank you. I appreciate that positive approach.
Would you possibly build that same desk for me? How much would it cost?
Sure shoot me a message.
How much did that cost? If i were to possible build half of that myself?
Ok friend, do you have PDF?
Edvaldo Jose seriously? you didn’t look the description.
I see a DIY and then I say hey, maybe I can do it, I got my Drill, Hammer, Screws and a Saw ready to work...Wait what??? what are all those tools?? That won't fit in apartment...I will need to rent a separate apartment and spend a couple thousand dollars in tools to be able to Do It Myself :( . Anyway, excellent table. I Love it. But Definitely I won't be able to DIMyself.
You feel better now?
You are THEE most talented guy on TH-cam!!!!
I can't build most of the stuff you make but it is interesting how it will look at the end and what you use to make the stuff. New sub!
DIY creators you deserve more than a cookie like this vid legit made me cry man tears of joy i'm just so.... at a lost for words keep up the good work
Haha thank you. :)
Watched this over and over again, and still it doesnt fail to amaze me 👌
Simply Beautiful, no more words
dude seriously great work. nothing like building your own things and it turning out as good as this did.
Thanks man!
excellent job, Nigeria and Africa is waiting
I love the design of the desk. Good job
A beautiful piece of furniture. I wish I know more about the woodwork.
I'm wondering what wood you bought and what dimensions it came in, or even a plan so i could even modify the desk for my own needs. Really love the design.
Wow the whole process was great.
wow someone actually make real stuff. awesome!
As many have commented, really impressing! Not trying to take away of your craftsmanship but pretty sure 50% or maybe 55% of all the work is done solely by those amazing, expensive tools and accesories.
Thanks, but I couldn't disagree more. I made this lamp by hand just to prove otherwise th-cam.com/video/a5yiMhJaGCo/w-d-xo.html The tools helps with how fast you can get the work done (patience it still required). If I gave someone access to my shop, there is no guarantee you will get the same results. My tools are not expensive. The most expensive tool I own is my tables saw $550, it took years to get my collection.
DIY Creators I completely agree with you, I own majority of the tools you do but I couldn't do half the things you can, you're are an artist
You're my favorite DIY channel because there's not much talking involved just pure explanation! :) keep it up
Clean workshop and very detailed. Well done! Everything looked brand new.
Thanks!
I not familiar to woodworks.
Your videos inspire me and Now I thinking about make some of my own.
I keep watching your videos and make a list of the least amount of power tools that I have to buy.
please Advise me with that.
Thank you .. Cheers. !
About to get a desk together by using a solid door slab that will be stained and poly'd.
For the shelves and drawers you made here, if they were stained, would it have needed as much sanding as you did?
Love the slant on the right leg. Nice touch. Do some research on cross cut sleds for your table saw though. It'll help you avoid binding and a potential kickback. I'd hate to see the community lose a great TH-camr to a table saw injury. Great work! Blessings!
best desk I've seen anywhere.
Man i love woodworking projects, how didn't i find you until now?!?!?! You are absollutly amazing, your skills are amazing!
With access to work space I'll do some of these incredible projects 👍
Man that thing looks awesome.
For someone who has no table saw equipment, what are your suggestions to go about making custom desks like yours but on smaller scale?
You will need at least a circular saw. It will take a lot of patience but it totally possible. I am working on a series for viewers with limited tools. This series will help you make straight cuts and get a lot done from limited tools. Here is the playlist th-cam.com/play/PLE6IL_H-YxnztDZbRLT9ItW2J7q2ejT40.html Hope this helps.
DIY Creators wowwww you are amazing!!!!! new subscriber..... do you think that you could possibly put prices on what the projects you make roughly cost to make ?
damn! mad respect. working with wood wearing white. you're a neat guy.
Thanks man!
WOW MAN!! IT LOOKS REALLY PRECIOUS!!! GREAT WORK.
That desk is beautiful. What a talent. Best desk I've seen so far!!
what would you suggest as an alternative to a nail gun for this project? would just a hammer and regular nails be fine? or is there some alternative you'd recommend?
I want to see you making those space saving furnitures like the fold up fold down bed for tiny homes or for a small apartments
I'm not a big fan of building things but you Videos are awesome and very well described each process. Thumbs up
This guy should be a wood work (shop) teacher at a school. Awesome
Awesome, by far one of my favorite diy project. I can’t wait to try to make it, I’m just not ready yet. Gotta start smaller.
i mean i usually have these videos on mute because his voice is really annoying but i love the amount of talent you have and you do great pieces
