    Two weeks later, all the drawers are full and you realize you need another one!
    This is an absolutely astonishing piece of work. To make a hundred drawers exactly to size, out of recycled pallet wood, not some well behaved hardwood. Wow!

    I'm a renovation guy and woodwork enthusiast. I have many tools, not as good and as many as he have, but the ones I have would suffice to do a project like this. But he have something way more expensive that I lack of, and its patience. I love watching the video, and I envy his abilities and tools, but I envy much more his patience. A project like this with so many small pieces and little details would drive me insane. I take my hats of to this gentleman. Congratulations

      The patience...yes. We have a shop and every basic/intermediate power and hand tool I could ask for, but what I cannot buy is patience. Two weeks ago I was making a simple wood & metal napkin holder based on a $29 one I saw online, and I got so excited at how well it was turning out that I rushed it and the tried to eyeball the two screws on the front that blend perfectly into the design...if they're aligned. They are not. At my age I should know better and slow down.

      I've always said that God didn't bestow upon me enough patience, as I just plumb ran out of patience in the early 1990s...lol. So I was surprised that I could sit and watch this entire video straight thru without skipping ahead at all. While watching this, 2 themes were running through my head - 1) I wish I had this guys level of patience and 2) He must have built something similar to this before.... b/c I would have to make a cut list for that many pieces! Even if I had a detailed cut list, I would probably screw something up or rush too much. I wish the big box stores sold "patience" - they'd make a fortune!

    What people who haven’t floundered there way through a project like this may not realize is how incredibly accurate the measuring and spacing is on these projects: compensating perfectly for dado and slot thicknesses and spacing. The planning and engineering are so good that you don’t notice them.

    The level of patience and attention to detail to put this together is astounding. And the fact that he did it with crappy pallet lumber on top of that? That pushes the patience required to do this to truly inhuman levels. I'm incredibly impressed both with the craftsmanship and with the shear amount of time and effort that went into it.

      I think Mr Epic brilliantly incorporates an aesthetic understanding of the rustic nature of the source material allowing the finished piece to not be over finished and overly smooth but he is also not a slave to the roughness. I usually don’t like faux antiquing but this seems to straddle the line in a beautiful way. Finally the piece doesn’t seem too precious to actually use, which can be a problem a lot of fancy woodworking projects have.

      Humanity is not losing it's soul - just losing our free time. I'm a novice woodworker with ADHD, tons of creativity, and a true passion for working with my hands. I would LOVE to be able to take the time to build something like this for my workshop, because the organization would significantly help my OCD. I wouldn't mind the countless hours of repetitive cuts and sanding, because my ADHD allows me to hyper focus on tasks I genuinely enjoy. The problem is working 2 full time jobs, just to make enough to scrape by every month, doesn't exactly lend itself to time or energy for hobbies, which is why most of the younger generation is severely depressed. I worked my tail off to build my 10x12 workshop from pallets and scrape together money to buy second hand tools one by one. I have invested precious time and money into this hobby because I truly enjoy it, the creativity it allows one to use, the serenity it provides for ones racing thoughts, and the overwhelming appreciation for items made by my very own hands is unlike any other hobby I have had the pleasure of getting to know. I will never have the opportunity to pass the items down to children of my own, but I will surely pass them on to those in need down the road. But rest assured, there ARE younger generation who will not let this type of handy work die.

    You would think that watching the repetition of someone plane the wood, cut the wood, glue the wood, etc. for this long would get boring, but for some reason I find it quite calming. It may sound silly, but after watching all of the parts being made ready and organized, when the assembly is complete I somehow feel a sense of accomplishment. Not that I contributed anything to the project, but when you invest in something, even if it is just your time, I guess you begin to develop a feeling of camaraderie to the person who is actually doing the work.
    I realize that sounds strange, but there it is.
    Thank you for bringing us along on another journey. This one was just as amazing as the last one.

    Table saws and bandsaws for some reason as tools make me nervous and watching you reach around and over the running blades gives me the willies, but then again, your expertise is absolute and I applaud you reusing the much maligned pallet wood instead of using more exotic material.

      honestly he wasn't doing anything massively unsafe here. I understand that it can look dicey sometimes but he was clearly very aware of where he would put his hands and he did use push sticks to keep his hands away from the blade where necessary. The tools are perfectly safe so long as they are used carefully and with respect!

    I must have scrolled past this video dozens of times... I rarely, and I DO mean rarely, choose to watch any video longer than a half an hour. For some unknown reason, however, (perhaps it was only for the sheer beauty of the finished product being repeatedly cast into the algorithm) I decided to give it a go this evening. What more is there to say, that so many others have not already? Your love, and the mastery of your craft, is simply obvious. Your exquisite editing is, to be put quite frankly, something many could only wish to dream of, and your level of ultimate patience, combined with the highest degree of personal dedication to the culminating apex of your grand vision... To you sir, I say thank you. Thank you for bringing more beauty into this world. Thank you for opening that beauty up for the world to see. You truly are an inspiration to woodworkers of all ages and skill sets! Before I depart, I would like to add one more thing: I would like to also personally thank you for also showing your humbleness at 8:34... I believe that no matter how perfectly patient a person can be, inevitably, there is a point we all will face, when we must decide if we will either persevere, or cave in, to the pressures of overwhelming, seemingly unattainable achievements. By showing your humanity, your falliability, you also show that, through desire, dedication, and steadfast determination, the mind can push the body to do wondrous, beautiful things!!! Absolutely inspired by you, sir... I am humbled to have been allowed a glimpse inside... I pray you have a long and healthy life, and I cannot wait to see what else you have in store for us to see!

    I’m just about finished building my Roubo style workbench out of timber from doors pulled put of skips. It’s twice as much work but so satisfying, particularly knowing that I have given this wood (some of it in use for 100 years already) a new lease of life. Your work inspires me to carry on. Thanks for the time you spent not just doing this work, but filming and editing it too. Amazing job.

    Thank you so much Jason, I am delighted to watch your videos. I love how you seem to do all the intricate cuts without a plan to refer to for the viewer. It looks as though you just make it up as you go, but then at the end is a magnificent well planned and thought out masterpiece. No silly music during the video, just the sounds of your wonderful working. Inspiring indeed.

      that beacause he said "Made From Pallets"
      a lot of people and many purists with misplaced pride will never consider a job acceptable if the wood comes from a pallet, these people have learned how to make a rectangle with a gold ruler and will never be able to imagine doing it otherwise than by the book.
