- I made a pair of mirrors. Because people love mirrors. And because it made me happy. And that's enough of a reason, isn't it?

That Steve Urkle reference was the best. The mirrors came out wonderful.
Over the last several months I've been dropping notes in your comments about the massive project that I took on. I made an awning window for my living room to replace an ancient Andersen casement that had rotted.
It was way beyond my comfort zone, but I did it! I finished it and installed it. And other than I can't get the moisture out from between the two sheets of glass, I am quite happy with it.
Thank you for encouraging me to go make a thing and to not be intimidated by the process!
Welcome back to Philly. Thank you for bringing the warmer weather back with you.
"Helping the algo". Love your stuff. I've been back filling with your older videos I haven't seen yet.
Funny how you published a vid about getting back into the flow... Due to life landing a few well placed kicks in the Daddy Pills I have been unable to do any thing making for 4 months until just this week. My choice of a ease back into it was to make a walking stick for my Father Inlaws' 86th Birthday pressie. I have had a nice chunk of Cherry sitting in my stash staring accusingly at me for years that was perfect for the job. Project involved some rip sawing (yes, by hand because I hate myself😆) A nice Mortice and Tenon joint for the handle and then various spokeshaves, rasps, scrapers and sandpaper to do the shaping. Took me 4 days, man getting older sucks... But by the end of it I was happy 'cos I made a thing after so long. People should never underestimate the power of making a simple thing.
Love the cardboard plan. I photograph all my projects in the last 5-6 years, and during the last year, I started photographing my sketches just for my own satisfaction. High School drafting class taught me how, and it’s very satisfying to create on scratch paper, and yes, even cardboard.
❤ the imaginary watch check!!!
They look fantastic. So glad to see you using ash. I have several hundred bf of ash drying in my shop that I salvaged from some local tree cutters. Inspires me to see someone using something other than walnut.
Ash is great! It's pretty quickly growing on me as one of my favorites...on the other hand, I'm also with you on the walnut thing...hardly ever work with it, and if I want a brown wood, sepeple is so much more fun.
I can confirm that muscle memory, work flow, and the like need exercise or even re-training if it's been long enough. I stopped sewing decades ago for many reasons but I'm in a situation now where I can start up again. I dug out all the mending that had been stacking up for years, and while some things came back right away, others did not. For example, I used to thread the machine almost without paying attention, but now I had to dig out the owner's manual. Starting slowly and building again is definitely recommended.
I'm not making anything out of wood - yet. I will retire in a little over a year and where I live there is a furniture-making course on offer every year. I'm looking forward to it.
the breath of your shop capabilities - cool!
I'm diggin' the butternut for sure. Fun project.
Hey boo, i see you're back. Welcome back home! Missed ya. Family Matters is classic
The mirrors are nice, But I want that coffee cup!!! That thing is great!
Six weeks! HA! I have been without a shop for 30 months! AAArraaahhh!!! Well, I'm almost there. The new shop has all the exterior work done. Got the siding and gutters up mid-week. Now I'm focused on the electrical wiring followed by the electrical rough and framing inspections, then I'll move on to insulation and drywall. I had an HVAC contractor out this week and told him I was looking for a mini-split installation around New Years. What all this means is that my plans for woodworking gifts have been put off to next year. Oh well!
Of course this is a worthwhile project! Everybody likes to look at themselves in a "meer"!
WOO HOO! I didn't win one of your mirrors, but somehow I am one of the winners! Thank your for pointing me to it!
I've only worked with butternut once. I can definitely understand why people might find it to be too soft for some applications, but it's plenty durable for some too.
For me, it is the shelf material in a bookcase with the sides and top made of ash. Worked really nice & with that application, there won't really be a lot of wear or damage.
While I could feed the algorithm solely for it's own sake, I would like to compliment you on the simple form with just that little something for interest. Nicely done. And yes, butternut is a joy with hand tools. As someone who has, infrequently, been cutting glass for over 50 years I never get over that bit of trepidation when it's time to make that snap. And the pleasure when it works.
DID I DO THAT Some of us are old enough to remember Steve Urkel lol 😂 Another great video good to see you back in your shop. Great simple project thanks for sharing.
Great looking mirrors. Love my Shaper!
I’ve had my shaper for at least a month now and haven’t used it yet. Getting shaper anxiety. Speaking of anxiety…watching you cut that mirror…yikes. But what awesome mirrors! Welcome back to the east coast!
Welcome back to the shop. Helping the algorithm!
Nice project for a small space or a quick check before going out the door. Glad I'm not the only one who has those "What the hell was I thinking?!?" Moments in the shop with the tennon lol
Lovely job Eric and a neat and simple way to correct your senior moment. Thanks for the video.👍👍
Awesome video. Love all your work. Shout out to the Philly reference, South Jersey here.
Well finally we are able to see your cool shop again, welcome home. Mirrors came out sweet, and I personally like to see makers use any tool they want. Go Shaper Origin.
I love working with butternut! It is lovely and so easy to work with.
The more I see the capabilities of the Shaper in use the more I understand the attraction of having one. Dam you. 😂
Another great video!!!
A great way to start my Saturday!
Cheers
Great Build and Great Video. IMHO I liked the length of the stiles before you trimmed them off. Kind of Beauty and the Beast style. As far as the Shaper Origin, If you have it use it. Welcome back to the shop! Thanks for sharing.
“Did I do that!?” Some of us know. Really like the mirror and that damn mug man!!!! Appreciate showing the process and just straight up great video as per usual
Why not use a bridle joint? They can be annoying to cut but I really like the contrast in end grain to long grain that shows up on the corners.
Man, my daughter lives by Philly. If you taught hand plane classes, I would so drive down from Central NY and take them with you! I've always wanted to use them, but I'm clueless.
Nice mirrors. Since I neither have a Domino nor a Shaper, I would employ half lap joints, with a visible dowel made from a contrasting wood. To achieve a wrap around grain look you could use angled half laps. In this case the dowel wouldn't work. Love your work and your delivery, even your plywood frolic on the West coast. Keep it up.
Thank you for another project.
Love the project, love the “just make something” concept, and (somewhat surprisingly) loved the butternut!
As always sir, wonderful, encouraging, wholesome, and open-hearted content. It's deeply appreciated.
As always I enjoyed watching your video. The Steve Urkle reference, priceless. I have 2 granddaughters that I believe would love a mirror similar to what you did, but made by Papa. Thanks for all you do.
Great quick project. When you made the angle error, I thought you were going to go a whole different direction. Personally, I would have shaved a little off one side of the tenon and called it a day. That's the great thing about woodworking. There's always another way.
You really hurt my head when you said you where going to cut the domino in while it was still a 90. So glad you didn't skip over the brain fart or I would have been in the shop wondering why it wasn't working for me. 😂
Love the waxing philosophical and the ASMR combo. Thanks for enhancing my morning coffee!
Nice work! I’ve had my Shaper Origin for a couple of months now. It is becoming my go to tool for so many different projects.
You forgot Urkel’s other famous line: Did I do that?? #longliveGenX
Would love to hear you speak more on the subject of bringing beauty into the world
I love the mirrors. Great video. Thx.
Ok, I'm reassured. I spent quite a while thinking about why the hack it should work to route out the domino holes first and then cut the angles. 😁
Great video once again 👍
the "Elder Millennial" and Steve Urkle reference earned you a like and a sub good sir 🤣
Those came out great!
Always enjoy your videos. Your presentation and teaching style brings joy to me every time I watch. Thanks for all you do for the community. ❤
Re: Shaper Origin
From Gen X to Mil, I think that one thing we share in common is a distaste for reliving 8th grade Algebra...go AI, more time to stare at the wood grain directions and chew on pencils.
Looks awesome BTW. My Pap made a toy chest out of Butternut for me >50 years ago. It still looks awesome and use it for seasonal clothes 😁Thanks Pap! God rest your soul.
Eric thank you for your work, you're inspirational. Time to go clean up and put wheels on my craigslist bandsaw.
cheers Eric, love your philosophy around getting reacquainted with your shop & tools
Great video. Bring out the expensive tools!
Great video! Congrats from Brazil!!
Man I enjoy your content-keep inspiring buddy!
I was given a lower third of a butternut tree o er the summer I milled into about 5 or 6 slabs of 2” thick. I actually am really excited to work with it. I also had a smaller piece that was already dried before doing the slabs and thought it great to work with disregarding the softness. Really cool stuff. The white walnut 👍
Welcome back to the shop! Great project and content as usual, thanks for being real and showing htat you are human and make mistakes like the rest of us... cheers!
The Shaper Origin is an amazing tool.
Comment for the algo, 'cause ya know, TH-cam life 🧡 love ya bud, always enjoy seeing the mistakes and how to fix them
No pun intended but the mirrors are visually interesting. Nice work 👍👍
Glad you are back from LaLa land. Butternut is an absolute joy to work with. Like the Shaper work, but alas, technology is not my strong suit. But you keep bringing it my man. Enjoy your work. Most of my tools and equipment are considered vintage, wow, just thought they were old. LOL. Keep them coming Erik, Semper Fi.
Thanks, nice vid. One thing, I kind of liked it when the vertical rails were proud of the horizontal ones. Not a big deal, but it looked a bit more comical and fun.
Great work!
Love the shaper. Thanks for showing that
❤
that is a nice project idea for christmas and other times when presents are needed. All through the video i was hoping you were going to trim the ends of the vertical pieces but after it was done i kinda liked it with out the trimming better. more "fun" looking. either way a great idea. cheers from north of the 49th paralell
These might look great hung side by side, but one of them flipped to create complimentary angles.
Nice project!
I often take time out to do a smaller, trivial, simpler project while I’m in the middle of a larger, more technically challenging project just to free up the mind… my little mind gets frazzled sometimes when I’m over thinking. Tks!
Another great video. Love the presentation and style. Thank you for sharing your efforts. Looking forward to seeing your channel grow as it deserves more… 👍🏻
I’d pick the butternut version hands down. Plus I like the inscription better. Nice quick video for getting back into the shop!
I thought the "sticking-out" bits of the frame, before you cut them flush, gave them an interesting twist. I think I would have left it there. However, I do enjoy your videos!
Your happiness is infectious - cheers!
Can you just make shaper open up the Australian market? That would be awesome. Merry Christmas.
Expensive equipment! For the sake of algo ;)
Thank you for your videos ❤
Plus one on all the praise. And nice one with "trapezoid." More than a quadrilateral! Those geometry terms can get you into trouble. But not you, Erik. ;-)
Great video and nice build. So glad I stumbled onto your channel!
Beautiful, but I will say, I thought the overages on the verticals before you cut them off on the bandsaw were a light-hearted, almost whimsical addition to the design. We’re I making them, I’d have left them (depending on the recipient). Love ‘em, though. ❤
The butternut is beautiful, but I think "soft" is a relative term. I made a mallet out of the last piece of butternut from a tree I cut down with my Grandfather 40 years ago. It is a reliable tool and it looks great.
A project for self reflection is never silly.
Another great video, thanks, keep 'em coming and stay lucky out there
Y'know, my design inclination would have been to leave the 'ears' that you trimmed off. But hey, that's just me. BTW, love that butternut, will have to try to get some to fiddle with.
Another (lazier) solution, would be to trim the acute angled side of the domino so that it is perpendicular ~ no time lost with gluing in a domino & re-dominoing it.
Great video. I’m gojng to have to try this one.
Great work and video! Damn I want that Shaper Origin
thank you .
Shaper Trace on da wall!
Algo, love it.
I really need to get a reference to the music you play. That slide piece was great. Do you post that anywhere?
Love your videos, keep ‘‘em coming!
As always, thanks for a great video. One request I have a, uh, "friend" who can't cut glass cleanly. I, uh, I mean "he" could really use a 10 minute video on glass cutting. Food for thought if you need to knock out a quick video.
Paige would love that mirror 😅
Cheers!
Another great video. What about a video on your favorite wood species and how to identify them? Also, which species do you avoid? I know...so many questions. 🤔
With you being in PA, that form could be easily modified to reflect the Keystone and marketed locally...or to those Disston hand saw fans. Plus Shaper wouldn't mind the demo of cutting the complex profile across the top.
Hey man just wanted to say I appreciate your content your a pretty amazing wood worker and really enjoy your videos keep it up!
Boo this man!! You know, for the algorithm.
Sweet stuff! Love to see it, Erik 🔥
Hi there!. Saludos from Madrid. Have you ever considered treating us with a Spotify list of the songs of your videos?
Fun! Love my SO! What bit did you use for the engraving and how'd you eliminate the fuzzies around the letters?
It is good to see you back in the shop with your mug again. I'm not surprised that your initial design angle was a 1:6 dovetail. The muscle memory is strong. Good work again.
I am often curious if what you are listening to when you make stuff. Are you more the blog/audiobook person or a music person?
Lol "idk why my brain did math bad" i feel that so much
