Thank man, mistakes happens. I look at my videos as prototypes, I'm making these for the first time. I share the mistakes so no one makes the same one.
I love your projects. I also appreciate that you don’t edit out your mistakes, you own them and explain how you make them right. Keep up the great work.
Very nice! My granddaughter, who is 18, saw this and now wants one. Looks like I have a cool project to do for her. Thanks, and keep up the great work.
Nicely done. Just a note for future reference. To apply veneer to internal curves, try one of those bean-bags people use to warm up their sore neck or shoulders. Just put it in the microwave for a minute on high; it is flexible so it will conform to the curve and it stays hot for quite a while. You can still use the iron for flat surfaces.
This is such a minor point but it's so nice to see a TH-cam maker using a heat gun for heatshrink tube instead of a lighter or soldering iron. Cool video and project. Your humble presentation format is very inspiring.
this is by far the best quality video on youtube.mimics and movements are more real than real life,unbelievable.Plus,the guy looks like Lamar from Gta5
Great job! You should do more of these videos out of your comfort zone. Sometimes the simple looking designs are challenging to build, but well worth it. I definitely saw some design commonalities with my "Rings of Saturn" light, but also got some ideas from this video about how I could improve it when I make the video for Rings of Saturn version 2.0. I really liked the idea of hiding the wires under the veneer.
Thanks! I've definitely learned a lot from you. I'm excited to see more projects from you where you don't worry about trying to make a build simple or inexpensive, and just focus on making the design as cool as possible.
Started this over the weekend. Have wanted to make LED lamps for myself but always get lost browsing catalogs as to what to get. Your materials list along with video instructions have finally gotten me over the edge. Thanks!
Nice job! Really like how you showed how to set up the router table to do the pattern cutting. Also how you routed the groove for the wire to run through. I might try to do this one at some point in the future. Only change I might make, if I build it, is to add a jack to accept the plug from the power supply. It night have to be epoxied in, but wouldn't be that much harder. And shouldn't be as subject to wear and tear as where the wire now goes through. Nice showing how to do the strain relief and all, as well. Even heat-shrinking and soldering the connections. You didn't miss a thing! Thanks for the build! Great project!!!
Montreal NightLife lol this probably took him a load of time maybe 4-8 hours. this dude is pulling in wayyyyy more than that per day with his skill set
I am today finishing this lamp (2 to be exact). It's my first woodworking project and it's fun to do. Thanks for giving me the idea. Simply having a wonderful Christmas time. Merry Christmas!
Really great project. Thank you for telling us your mistakes. A lot of these woodworkers come off as gods to us newbies because everything they do is seemingly perfect. Hopefully I get around to building this!
Awesome mate, how strange I spend all day on site doing carpentry and then come home and watch it lol...videos like yours keep me interested in my craft thanks mate
Hello there, first of all great Video and cool DiY Project. For you and all in the Community a little Tipp for working with veneer. Give the wood a good sanding making as much contact with the glue as posible (using filler for voids would be se best), that will also avoid bubbles that could form with the wood soaking water from the air. to trim the edges you showed one of the most commen mistakes when you are new to working with veneer. Get a longer blade and place it on the wood to get a cut along the veneer and try not to fall into an angle, after that you can just give it a nice soft sanding with a high grid paper.(like a 220 paper) this will give it a soft rounded edge and blends it in. Thanks for the Video and i will keep watching you ideas come to life.
A couple of slats or "pegs" on each side of the power button would lock it in place when in the stand and make it more stable when on it's own. Just an idea I had when watching the overview. Pretty neat design.
Being watching your videos for sometime as I'm taking on woodworking as a hobby and I have to say "all good", genius ideas and deserve duplicating my way to not make a copy of your work, very nice, keep it up, you inspire me, thank you!
First time someone told me to focus on the negative! :) Seriously though that was a great build and I might try it myself one of these days. I really need a new desk lamp for studying but want to make something creative and DIY. One of these days...
I’m so happy your back up and running can’t wait to see what content you create next... have you done super sleek modern floating shelves ??? I would love to see that if you haven’t done that already . Thanks for sharing
Glenn, I HATE how you guys always make things look so easy! Like Tiger hitting a golf ball! LOL. But seriously, Glenn, you ROCK!! I truly appreciate your talent and willingness to share it with us lesser beings. Please keep up the GREAT work and PLEASE keep sharing. You’ve definitely earned a new subscriber! P.S. I apologize if I misspelled your name.
I love the way you explain everything. It makes us feel that we can aspire to improving our skills, as you are obviously professionally competent, but encouraging to newcomers. You are a great role model!
I’m so happy to get back in the shop! What should I post next? FAQ- Chest Vest goo.gl/qywmMK
DIY Creators make vase for flowers (im not god at english)
make an upgraded infinity mirror
upgrade it like do you want
Glenn make a pit bed. Or like a sunk in bed that's closed off on all sides
make a desk super nice and big of wood and hide leds.... but at your style, you know ;)
DIY Creators I would love another of the limited tools series (I think that’s the name I forgot)
Great video, I appreciate that you don't edit out your mistakes, in my opinion that is what separates the best makers from the rest. Keep it up!
Thank man, mistakes happens. I look at my videos as prototypes, I'm making these for the first time. I share the mistakes so no one makes the same one.
Mistakes are an important part of any creative process. If you can't embrace them, learn from them and improve, then, what the heck are you doing!
Agreed. If you don't show the mistakes, someone will make them. Thanks for another great project.

Brandon Sturms you had 99 likes I make that 100. Isn't that good.
I love your projects. I also appreciate that you don’t edit out your mistakes, you own them and explain how you make them right. Keep up the great work.
Thank you. :)
Very nice! My granddaughter, who is 18, saw this and now wants one. Looks like I have a cool project to do for her. Thanks, and keep up the great work.
Awesome work, Glenn! Good to see you back, man.
Thanks man, Thrilled to be back in the shop.

Glad you’re safe and back fam. This project is amazing.
Thank you, Same here.
Is he in Houston or California
This is such a minor point but it's so nice to see a TH-cam maker using a heat gun for heatshrink tube instead of a lighter or soldering iron. Cool video and project. Your humble presentation format is very inspiring.
Very nice Glenn. My son and I always enjoy your projects. We both get inspired. He built a bed for college that was inspired by your platform bed.
Thank you, That is awesome to hear :)

I agree, I really want to tackle more design like such. You did a great job with all your projects. I'm sure I will learn something from you.
Thanks! I've definitely learned a lot from you. I'm excited to see more projects from you where you don't worry about trying to make a build simple or inexpensive, and just focus on making the design as cool as possible.
Yes, I plan to do more of those. I'll mix it up to trying and balance the of the audience. Working a schedule, hopefully, that helps.
Yup, you've worked hard and have a well deserved following, so I think you are entitled to a few self-indulgent builds :)
Never ceases to amaze bro...glad you're back in action and Irma didn't keep you down for to long..it was a mad house down here in Miami.
I remember when you were just starting out, and then I knew you would become big :D. Happy to see the channel growing!
You always combine woodwork with electronics very well. You're really a good craftsman !
Man video after video you are killing it!!!
Thanks, man :D i'm just trying to get better.
Amazing work!
Thank you
Happy to see you well and back in the shop. Love the work sir!
Happy to be back. Thank you :)
Hello. Can i ask you a question What is the name of the paper you put on the wood. Is how you fix it
Thinks
Glad you came up on my feed. Love how you incorporate simple solutions for people who don't have a shop full of expensive tools.
Thank you for another easy to understand project, once again your accent is most enjoyable ;-) cheers Barry (NZ)
Thank you. :D
Looks very sleek and modern!
I also like the fact that you can use it with and without the base.
Thank you. The base is optional for this reason :)
As always, simplistically beautiful.
Thank you
Started this over the weekend. Have wanted to make LED lamps for myself but always get lost browsing catalogs as to what to get. Your materials list along with video instructions have finally gotten me over the edge. Thanks!
What talent and creativity. Fantastic your projects. Greetings from Spain!👍
Hi, my friend you also here, we are watching the same video 😁
The clamp to support the piece when you were finishing up the cut, great idea. Thanks
Turned out great Glen, love the simplicity of the design.
Thanks Linn :)
I like the projects but you have an honest and straightforward presentation that I really appreciate.
Thank you.
I need to find a man like you! Amazing little thoughts that brought this project together.. New subscriber! Love from Sydney, Australia xo
Nice job! Really like how you showed how to set up the router table to do the pattern cutting. Also how you routed the groove for the wire to run through.

I love your videos and your diys they are so modern and amazing 😉 keep up with the good work😊😀
I like the fact that you don't use all the fancy expensive tools and still make cool things!
Man you are fantastic..I love that project...thx gracias..
Thanks Daniel!
Nice project, and glad to hear you and your family remained safe during the recent hurricane.
Thank you.
Hello there, first time in your channel and I love it. From now on subscribed!!!👌👍🖖, thank you very much great ideas Great Channel great projects.
Awesome! Thank you and welcome
Same! :) :)
Really enjoy your ingenuity in making the tools you don't have, problem solving at it's best! Nice end result too.
you're a freakin genius!! you should have your own website for selling these at a reasonable. dont charge like 200$ for it lol
Montreal NightLife lol this probably took him a load of time maybe 4-8 hours. this dude is pulling in wayyyyy more than that per day with his skill set
GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY, you are an real artist.
Big thanks from Africa Morrocco.
It'd be nice if you can integrate that led to be hidden within the wood. It'll give a sleek clean look.
I am today finishing this lamp (2 to be exact). It's my first woodworking project and it's fun to do. Thanks for giving me the idea.
Simply having a wonderful Christmas time. Merry Christmas!
damn like always Awesome!
Thank you.
Glad your shop is back in working order. I like the lamp with the contrast of light and dark from the stand, looks nice all in all.
The best 🖖🇺🇸
awesome! videooooo. =) i made one for the living room. though i bought a lumiy lamp for my home office. www.businessinsider.com/best-desk-lamp?IR=T
Booooooook
You make it look so easy...well done! This is not a strength of mine, but appreciate you showcasing your process!
с такими инструментами сделать настолько неаккуратно нужно постараться
Меня больше удивляет, клеща у нас что то делают или это старая коряга, или ЛДСП в 16 мм, а у них часто толстые массивы дерева и красивые
Really liked it, the way you explained it and went over your mistakes and the solutions to them.
4:39 how many clamplssss?????😶😶
you can never have too many clamps :)
I was just about to make this exact post^! I dont care if you have 100 clamps, you'll need 103. Or clamps that are larger
:D
a few
Melius est abundare quam deficere
I'd seriously buy this lamp. The contours are cool
Nice
Thank you
Really great project. Thank you for telling us your mistakes. A lot of these woodworkers come off as gods to us newbies because everything they do is seemingly perfect. Hopefully I get around to building this!

Thanks.
Cool project! Glad to hear you and your family made it through the hurricane. Welcome back

Damn
Nice work. I appreciate details like shrink tubing and the knot in the wire.
😂
Great project! The only thing I 'd add is embed a couple magnets in the base and lamp to allow them to 'stick' in place
Nice you got job inikea bro check ur email

Nice project! I can already envision where a lamp like this is going to go in my house.
Glad you and your family survived safe and sound!

Precious object!, and a generous step-by-step sharing. Thanks from Barcelona
This would be awesome to hang on the wall and maybe have a photo in the middle. Well done sir.
Thank you, I can see that.
Another great job and cool ideas. Glad you made it through the hurricane!
Thanks Nick. Same here
so glad you made it through the weather. Another great video too.
Thank you. Glad to be back in the shop.
Glad to see you back safe and sound. Great project. Love the lamp!
Thank you
Nice project. Looks great and informative. I also really like that you show the finished product at the beginning.
Thank you. :)
Nice project. Something someone would pay a lot for in one of those fancy boutique stores.
Thank you. Yes I can see that
I love the way you explain everything. It makes us feel that we can aspire to improving our skills, as you are obviously professionally competent, but encouraging to newcomers. You are a great role model!
As usual - liked the movie.... uh... Rather, the lamp that you made! Like from Russia!!
Genius genius can’t stop watching
Thats a real nice modern lamp man.
You have it going... God has given you great talent... I very much enjoyed your video.
Man that's a beautiful lamp. Great job Glen. Love the marking jig tip.
Thanks man! haha if there is a will there is a way.
The base definitely made this! Nice work man!
Thanks man
