Lol! This is crazy. @Lincolnstww commenting on this video! Huge fan! For realz. Who the hell are you? Tell me you son if a b***h!! Seriously. Lol. Great video. Absolutely stellar.
Wow! Hi John, and thank you for stopping in! and I'm thrilled that you enjoy my editing and story! That really means a lot to me. I just checkout out your channel! I love it! Amazing tips and tricks you share, I'm now subscribed! I'lll be stopping in to say hi and learn some of your skills! Cheers John, all the best to you!
Ha, not sure about either or those, as there are far better out there than me, but I really appreciate your comment and your encouraging words, thank you so much for that!
Built it, except for the swivel miter part. Had it 1/2 done then realized my saw wasn't going to fit. Made a shelf like the table saw. It came out really well thanks to your video and plans. I probably watched this video 50 times. Thanks!
Hi Dan, sorry it gave you some headache when you realize your saw wasn't going to fit...glad you got it sorted and that's awesome to hear your workbench came out really well! Way to go Dan and Congratulations on your build 👍👍👍 If you ever feel like sharing a picture or two, it would be great to see! send to vanislandstudio@gmail.com if you want. Thanks for letting me know the video and plans helped out and thank you for your support by choosing my plan! All the best to you ✨
I hope you keep making more videos they are very entertaining, with good designs, and your stop motion is something unique from normal woodworking videos. It’s a nice change.
Hi there Michael Thanks for the encouragement to keep going! It means a lot for me to hear and read your comment! I'm neck deep in life at the moment, but i cant wait to get back to making more videos soon. Nice to hear you enjoy the stop motion 👍 it is fun for me too! Thanks again Michael!
Can't wait to build this. Exactly what I've been looking for. My tools are still in Texas until February when they make the move here to South Carolina. Seriously great work here.
I hope it serves you well Jason, thanks for your interest and for stopping by. If you ever have any questions once your into the build, send me an email, vanislandstudio@gmail.com I'm happy to chat and I wish you all the best with your move!
@vanislestudio i will definitely be in touch. I'm thinking of adding router lift and space for jointer and planer as well. Maybe slide out stand. Along with dust collection. I think it will fit under the table.
Instant subscription!! Found myself screaming several dozen times in OCD pleasure at your accuracy, editing, musical choices, and storytelling. SPOT ON
Hey PeakCentury I must say I am loving your comment! It is Just so great for me to read and I'm thankful that you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for the support! Paul
The amount of work in this video is crazy! Every second was very entertaining and informative! I'm new to woodworking and people like you inspire me to get so much better! Thank you and please make more videos like this!
Hey there JrSanchez, it's awesome to hear you are getting into woodworking! I wish you all the best on your woodworking journey and its special to hear you were inspired by my video. Thanks for that bud! All the best to you ⭐
What an amazing work bench and even more incredible video. You are a very talented man! So glad I came across this video in my search of ways to make this same set-up.. Thank you!
Wow Alen, not sure about the 1M but thanks so much for the encouragement to keep trying! It does take me a while, hopefully I'll get faster at it and again, thanks so much! All the best to you
Hey Ivan that is really kind of you to say and thank you so much for choosing my workbench plan! If you ever have any questions please don't hesitate to ask 👍 and I'm happy to help! Just send me an email to vanislandstudio@gmail.com. I wish you the best of luck and hope you enjoy building your workbench! Paul
Absolutely brilliant. Your attention to detail and design are beyond next level. My OCD can rest easy. I’ve found the woodworking Yoda. I can’t wait to get through your back catalogue. Thank you 👍
Ha Your OCD resting now and the woodworking Yoda really made me laugh! That's awesome and makes me want to do more.Than you so much and Thanks for your support!
Wow, why haven't you come up on my feed before. Probably the best 25 minutes I've spent in quite a while. Not sure what impressed me more your woodworking skills or video editing ones. Earned a like and a sub. Also very heart-warming watching you work with your dad. Cherish those moments with your mum and dad, make as many memories as you, because once there gone their gone, sadly I know from experience. A big hello from Spain.
Hi Frank, you made it to the end of my video! Thank you so much for my smile that I'm wearing now :) That means a lot to me. I greatly appreciate your comments, especially about our mom's and dad's and your experience. I get to see them again in 4 days time and really looking forward to it. Thanks for the like and the sub my friend, all the way from Beautiful Spain! Cheers from a sunny and bit of a rainy morning here on Vancouver Island. Paul
Watching this guy is insane. Like performing a hilarious job that is amazing. Yet he looks like a surgeon operating on Wood Projects. Saying his good is an understatement. His a genius and accurate. Mind blowing stuff.
Hey Rod! You watched this even though you have no need for it? This really sticks in my head and I'm pretty grateful for this bud! Thank you so much! Cheers Paul
Wow, I'm touch you though my video was art my friend. Thank you for such a compliment and I'm looking forward to sharing more with you! All the best! Paul
This is absolutely amazing. I have minimal tools (multi-use drill and some saws) and an expensive mortgage, so my plan is to build a woodworking nook. Im saving this for when I get a router! Thank you, Paul! Cannot wait to see what you build and share next!
Thanks so much and I'm glad you found inspiration in the build! I'm also looking forward to starting videos again in 2025, until then... Happy building mate!
Been watching different woodworking channels for a while now and I have some favorites, and I still love them as well. I have to say though, this is the first video of yours I have seen and the editing is off the charts. Great video and I hope to see more, I am now SUBSCRIBED!
I also have my favourite channels that I love, and there are a lot out there, and I am thankful that my video found its way to you and even more so that you happened to enjoy it! I'm looking forward to sharing more with you and I greatly appreciate your comment and your support! All the best to you, Paul
A Gem! Ha :) Thank you so much for your comment Evan! That made me smile this morning and I appreciate your encouragement to keep at it! All the best to you!
I have a feeling the creation of this video probably took longer than the creation of the workbench! Incredible and amazing job. I think this is my favorite 'workbench build' on all of TH-cam!!!!
Hey Cameron, you know, you might be right about the video taking longer lol 😂Thanks so much for the awesome feedback mate, its greatly appreciated 👍✨ Wishing you all the best, Paul
Your videos are equally engaging and educational. With the professional quality of editing you apply, you're like the Steven Speilberg of woodworking videos! I'm looking forward to seeing more. Cheers from a fellow BC westcoaster.
An amazing build and superior craftsmanship and artistry, not just in the project but the video editing too. Looking forward to seeing more of your projects!
That's great to hear! And thanks for the encouraging words, it took a lot of time and effort to make. I hope to be able to produce more videos this year and thanks again!
I made a bench similar to this based on someone else's plans, and lemme tell ya, it's nowhere NEAR as amazing as yours. Wow. I'm blown away. Now I have to rip mine all up and start over, because this is definitely next level!! Congrats!
Hey Markus, Hope you enjoyed the process of building your own workbench mate! and good on ya for tackling such a task 👍 and thanks you so much for your kind compliment. If you were really going to build another one, or have any questions, always happy to chat vanislandstudio@gmail.com All the best to you Markus, Paul
this is amazing for so many reasons; the craftsmanship, the engineering and the quality description - not to mention the amazing video work!! you need more subs!!
Hey Brian I greatly appreciate the vote of confidence and thanks so much for your kind comments. Looking forward to growing my channel and sharing more with you :) All the best mate!
This is by FAR my favorite workbench build video. Great content. Both useful and entertaining. I can tell you put your soul into this. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Kevin it took a wee bit of time on my end lol, and I'm thankful you enjoyed my build video! and it's my pleasure sharing it with you. Wishing you all the best!
Came here because Lincoln Street sent me. The video quality here is insane for such a small channel. Instant sub! We will watch your career with great interest!
Hey Alex, that was incredible of Jon from Lincoln St and thanks so much for stopping in and for the sub! I'm looking forward to sharing more with you. All the best to you!
So glad I saw someone put the miter saw on the right end of the table! Every video I've seen has it on the left, which doesn't make sense for a right hander cutting a long board. Hopefully I get the time to make one of these myself. Beautiful details!!
I put it on that side, because like you mentioned Ben, I like to control the saw with my dominant hand (right), making it easy for me to see the cut, and hold the piece in place with my left hand, providing the maximum for cutting a long board. Thanks for noticing by brother! All the best to you
That was amazingly well edited, filmed and all around created. The build itself is so cool and like I said the video itself was a work of art IMO. I don't see how you only have 11k subscribers. Ill add one more now :)
Hey ShortysCreativeCorner I like your name! Thank you so much for your encouragement! It means a lot to me and I really appreciate your sub :) All the best to you and I'm looking forward to creating more for you, Cheers Paul
I gotta learn that snap trick at 11:05. In all my years of projects I haven't been able to do that one. Crazy how fast it makes things come together. I don't understand why people you didn't use that trick every time.
Hey Donovan buddy! Thanks my friend and yup, this one took a while as you would know! Just trying some new things, and having some fun in the shop making dust and noise ahahahah. Thanks again for the support, it means a lot, and I'm Looking forward to seeing you both really soon!! Cheers Buddy
Amazing video, storytelling, cinematography and music. Always watch all videos at 2x, but had to do 1x for the music. Btw, using headphones and that sound when going down the ladder at 2:43 freaked me out, sounded like in my room, some unintended binaural effect.
Thank for stopping in and for viewing at 1X! Thats so awesome to hear and the ladder... It stopped me when I was editing! Just sounded different to me too lol and pretty cool you commented on it! Thanks again and all the best to you
I just made one of these last week took me a week or so to build.. has my miter, table saw and planer all built into it. Very identical build. Mine looks like I bought it from Walmart compared to this.. Amazing detail and perfection. When IM mid project and get flustered I need to keep your skill in mind! Awesome.
Way to go for making your own workbench! and with a built in planer to boot. I think that is a fantastic and creative Idea! I get flustered all the time, you are not alone on that my friend. All the best to you!
Not everyone shares you thoughts on the music lol , so thanks for letting me know Stephen, that you enjoyed the songs and the edits 😄 Wishing you all the best
Apart from making me insanely envious, as to the skill shown both in design and display of craftmanship and of workshop and all its contents tool wise and space. I was immensely entertained. We lesser mortals can but look on in admiration, and continue to dream. Take care and be happy brother. Greetings from the UK.
Hello Norman from the UK :) A BIG Thank you for your kind comment and I'm thrilled you were entertained by my video. Thanks for the inspiration to keep dreaming all the way from Vancouver Canada :)
Hi VanIsle Studio, Out of curiosity, have you made any progress on this build ? I can't wait to see more of it, it is outstanding and I do hope you incorporate more tools into it to make it the ultimate workbench. A thickness planer that would use the entire workbench as an infeed and outfeed would be great, and also, a jointer that would do the same, with possibly a removable "top" to make up for the difference in thickness (workbench's top would be the jointer's outfeed height). Would also LOVE to see them being built in a mechanism that allows for easy lift/lower of the tools (idea: scissor lift-like mechanism)
Hi There, I've been inundated with house chores lately...doors, windows, roof..etc but.. I did purchase a router lift, only to realize Its the wrong size for my router Ha! I love your ideas, thickness planer, jointer, scissor lift! Sheesh you've given me a lot to think about! Thanks so much for sharing your ideas with me! Now I've got to get to working on it! Cheers
I don’t see a link to the pencil sharpener in your links! I so need one of those in my shop! Nice job on the bench and the video. I can appreciate the level of time that went into both. Thanks for the smiles.
Fantastic bench, well done. Your production quality and weirdness is a pleasure to watch. Us woodworkers are truly obsessed with accuracy but you take it to a whole new scary level. 😺
Thanks awesome you enjoyed it and thanks for that Tom! I think I got that way from watching my dad build some guitars when I was a kid :) Cheers Mate and thanks for stopping in!
Hey there, I recently purchased a router lift to install opposite the miter saw, just have to get time to put it in now, Great suggestion and thanks for stopping in!
Who'd have thought that a workbench video would make me cry at the end. Loved the comments about your mom and dad! ❤ And what an amazing bench you've created!
Hi Jandreoni, reading your comment is very dear to me, thank you for recognizing my mom and dad. It's pretty special! All the best to you my friend, Paul
7:36 hate to be one of those TH-cam commenters that give ideas on subjects with limited hands on experience, but without a riving knife, this cut makes me nervous. Your hands are between the fence and the saw so any kick back will rotate them into the saw as you finish the cut. A lot of people that joint on their table saw build a simple jointing sled which allows them to clamp the wood down and keep their hands away from the blade. Might be a good next project. Awesome video by the way
Hey Bruce thanks so much for your comment and looking out for my safety! I'll keep your thoughts in mind for the next time I need to do a cut like that, I like your jointing sled idea! Thanks for stopping in and leaving me your comment!
I basically made my table the same with table saw, mitre saw, and even a spot for my bench top band saw. Seeing the flipping mitre saw makes me want to redo mine. Looks way better than taking it off, setting it on the bottom shelf and screwing a piece of plywood down to fill the hole. Very nice 🤘🏼
Way to go for making your own workbench! and with a spot for your bench top band saw!! That's pretty smart thinking on your part! I'm sure your bench functions and looks pretty awesome too! Cheers and thanks for stopping in :)
I second that one comment, who the hell are you and why haven’t I seen you before? Your content is really good! And good for you for not gluing your first bench
You noticed that I did not use glue Tim, not to many comment on that. I guess its from watching my dad. He always told me you never know if or when you will need to toke something apart. All the best to you mate and thanks for stopping in!
Good grief man, this is inspiring! Your dad raised quite a creative son! Amazing work. Can I ask what camera you're shooting with? I'm guessing something over 4K based on the quality of your pan & scan shots. Maybe a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema 6K?
Hi Troy, I think that is awesome and humbling that you found my video inspiring. Thank you so much for that! It means a lot for me to read your comment, and I love spending all the time I can with my folks. I use Go Pro , Sony A7III with Sigma F1.4 35mm lens, and all those smooth shots came from my new iPhone. If I move quickly with the phone, it appears smoother when slowed down in Final Cut. But when you slow down a clip, you miss frames, so, final cut has a feature called "Optical flow" that fills in those missing frames. That's what makes the clip appear so smooth. All the best Troy!
Very excited to see what you have in store for 2025! I spray cabinets in a shop, I also enjoy building. Thanks for sharing your wonderful work. Plus love seeing your father with you I have a similar relationship with my father.
So well thought out and beautifully executed. The way you film is on point too. I think I can get great gains from watching your work so worthy of a subscription
Hey Bradley thank you for the subscription 😊 and I'm happy to hear you gained a few nuts of knowledge from my video. So awesome and looking forward to sharing more with you 👍 Cheers
Ha! Glad you enjoyed the production and woodworking, I'm not sure, but definitely projects involving wood I'd say, I really have no idea what I'm doing with the editing or camera, just having some fun learning and hope to start on a new project soon after a summer of roof and windows and builds elsewhere. Cheers and thanks agian!
"Its all in the details" is what my father said growing up. Not sure I'm a craftsman yet, but learning more every day, and thanks so much for the encouragement Scott! Its appreciated 👍
I watched a lot of videos about this but none of the other guys has so much attention to the possibility to adjusting everything. Apart of this I really like your way of making videos. Great stuf!
Hey Brandon! Nice to hear from you, I actually did make a planer sled out of plywood, but I found that the plywood had a slight warp in it over time and use, so... I don't know, maybe I'll eventually purchase a jointer, but not any time soon. Thanks for stopping in and saying hi bud! Cheers!
Ha! I wish I knew were I could find a replacement too Jaime, it came with Anna when we got married, I think her grandma sent it over from Japan when she was a wee tot! All the best to you!
wow, thank you verry much! At the beginning of your video, i felt bad…at the end, i have had a big smile on my face and into my heart ♥️ you are genious! Greatings from Germany
Hey Esmeralda from Germany! It is so nice to hear from you and thank you for your kind words. I'm so happy to share a smile of the heart with you! Thank you for this! Paul
Everyone loves to brag about how great the parents, family, and friends are. And here I sit, alone, and forgotten by literally everyone....on my 40th birthday.
Wow thank you for your compliment Andrew! That's a pretty big mile out there in the country and Ill do my best to keep it up for you :) I greatly appreciate your support!
who the hell are you!? this is silly good
😮
Lol! This is crazy. @Lincolnstww commenting on this video! Huge fan!
For realz. Who the hell are you? Tell me you son if a b***h!! Seriously. Lol. Great video. Absolutely stellar.
Agreed!@@Garybologne3237
He definitely raised the bar for video editing and camera work. Well done. Now...to find some toy robots!
He said his name is Paul.
Overall an awesome video - camera shots, audio, lighting, editing, visual effects, instructions - all top notch.
Hi Rob I'm glad you enjoyed the video mate! and thank you for your encouraging comment. All the best to you!
Wow. This build is just mind blowing. And the video itself is insanely good.
Hi David! Glad you enjoyed the build and video! Cheers
That leveling is exquisite. The flex of that level slide across the miter saw was perfect.
Ha! that was enjoyable for me to video, I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it too 👍 All the best to you!
Wow, that was awesome! Seriously jealous of your editing and storytelling skills here!
Wow! Hi John, and thank you for stopping in! and I'm thrilled that you enjoy my editing and story! That really means a lot to me. I just checkout out your channel! I love it! Amazing tips and tricks you share, I'm now subscribed! I'lll be stopping in to say hi and learn some of your skills! Cheers John, all the best to you!
So you’re a cinematographer and craftsmen. Got it, well you’ll have 1m subs soon. This video is amazing!
Ha, not sure about either or those, as there are far better out there than me, but I really appreciate your comment and your encouraging words, thank you so much for that!
@@vanislestudio There will always be someone better, but I have not seen them yet. This video is a masterpiece. Nice work. 🤖
Absolutely brilliant design, craftsmanship and video editing skills. It’s criminal you don’t have a million subs. Well done sir!
I appreciate your vote of confidence on the billion subs my friend so thanks a lot for that sunshine you gave me. I'm glad you enjoyed it! Cheers Paul
Built it, except for the swivel miter part. Had it 1/2 done then realized my saw wasn't going to fit. Made a shelf like the table saw. It came out really well thanks to your video and plans. I probably watched this video 50 times. Thanks!

Content 🤯
Craftsmanship 🤯
Video production 🤯
Hey Thank you so much Joe!
You're taste in music and integration in this video is.....
Phenomenal!
Hey Rogier! Thanks so much for letting me know 😊 and its nice to hear you enjoy the music! Cheers
What an amazing work bench and even more incredible video. You are a very talented man! So glad I came across this video in my search of ways to make this same set-up.. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you so much for stopping in 👍 Best wishes on your workbench coming to life mate!
Can we talk about the production quality of this video?!?! The storytelling?!?!?! The elements?!?!?! Fantastic!!!!! ❤❤❤
You are too kind good sir! and thanks so much for the smile on me face just now 😁 Cheers
In addition to your excellent craftsmanship and brilliant design, I really appreciate your cinematography. Well done!
Thanks Kevin, it's nice to hear you enjoy the cinematography and thank you! I'm looking forward to learning and sharing more with you.
The editing on this was really good. We need more of creative and engaging videos like this one, not more boring woodworking builds.
Hi There, thanks so much for the encouragement! Ill try to keep learning to keep things interesting. All the best to you and thanks again!
Wow, this video should win some kind of award. Educational and entertaining. Love the music and artistry!
Well, you stopping in is a good enough award for me Jeff 👍 Thank you so much and I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it. Wishing you all the best!
I enjoyed watching this immensely. Your attention to detail is to be commended!
That's great to hear Chappell and I'm glad you enjoyed watching my video! Thank you
This was seriously astounding work, from the video editing, to the immaculate precision and attention to detail. Please keep it coming.
Hey Alex thank you for the encouragement mate! It means a lot to me and I'm looking forward to sharing more with you :) All the best to you!
Dude, your consent is insane. I cannot imagine the number of hours and effort you put into this. Certain you will hit 1M
Wow Alen, not sure about the 1M but thanks so much for the encouragement to keep trying! It does take me a while, hopefully I'll get faster at it and again, thanks so much! All the best to you
Sometimes the TH-cam algorithm gets it spot on! I’m impressed…with your work.
I'm absolutely grateful that the "algorithm" found you David! All the best to you!
a tear of happiness rolled down my cheek when I opened the woodworking plan. I wasn't expecting perfection
Hey Ivan that is really kind of you to say and thank you so much for choosing my workbench plan! If you ever have any questions please don't hesitate to ask 👍 and I'm happy to help! Just send me an email to vanislandstudio@gmail.com. I wish you the best of luck and hope you enjoy building your workbench! Paul
Absolutely brilliant. Your attention to detail and design are beyond next level.
My OCD can rest easy. I’ve found the woodworking Yoda.
I can’t wait to get through your back catalogue.
Thank you 👍
Ha Your OCD resting now and the woodworking Yoda really made me laugh! That's awesome and makes me want to do more.Than you so much and Thanks for your support!
This is one of the best combination/integrated workbenches I've seen. A very no-nonsense bench at decent size for smaller workshops. Hats off, sir!
Hi Joseph, I really appreciate your comment, thank you so much for that!
Wow, why haven't you come up on my feed before. Probably the best 25 minutes I've spent in quite a while. Not sure what impressed me more your woodworking skills or video editing ones. Earned a like and a sub.
Also very heart-warming watching you work with your dad.
Cherish those moments with your mum and dad, make as many memories as you, because once there gone their gone, sadly I know from experience.
A big hello from Spain.
Hi Frank, you made it to the end of my video! Thank you so much for my smile that I'm wearing now :) That means a lot to me. I greatly appreciate your comments, especially about our mom's and dad's and your experience. I get to see them again in 4 days time and really looking forward to it.

Watching this guy is insane. Like performing a hilarious job that is amazing. Yet he looks like a surgeon operating on Wood Projects. Saying his good is an understatement. His a genius and accurate. Mind blowing stuff.
Hi there! I enjoyed reading your comments mate 🙏 made me laugh and smile 😀 and encourages me, so Thanks again and wishing you all the best! Paul
I don't even need a bench like this but I couldn't stop watching.
Hey Rod! You watched this even though you have no need for it? This really sticks in my head and I'm pretty grateful for this bud! Thank you so much! Cheers Paul
This is not just a great woodworking video, this is art!
Wow, I'm touch you though my video was art my friend. Thank you for such a compliment and I'm looking forward to sharing more with you! All the best! Paul
This is an “I was here” comment for posterity, when this guy had less than 9,000 subscribers. I’m guessing that number is about to rise exponentially.
Thank you for your encouraging words my friend, that made me smile and means a lot to me. All the Best!
This is absolutely amazing. I have minimal tools (multi-use drill and some saws) and an expensive mortgage, so my plan is to build a woodworking nook. Im saving this for when I get a router!
Thank you, Paul! Cannot wait to see what you build and share next!
Thanks so much and I'm glad you found inspiration in the build! I'm also looking forward to starting videos again in 2025, until then... Happy building mate!
@vanislestudio thank you so much! Im looking forward to build this workbench; I can hardly wait. Cheers from Vermont.
Been watching different woodworking channels for a while now and I have some favorites, and I still love them as well. I have to say though, this is the first video of yours I have seen and the editing is off the charts. Great video and I hope to see more, I am now SUBSCRIBED!
I also have my favourite channels that I love, and there are a lot out there, and I am thankful that my video found its way to you and even more so that you happened to enjoy it! I'm looking forward to sharing more with you and I greatly appreciate your comment and your support! All the best to you, Paul
What a gem of YT video! Editing, music, story telling - beautiful! And - piece of work itself - also great. Keep going, thanks for enjoyable video!
A Gem! Ha :) Thank you so much for your comment Evan! That made me smile this morning and I appreciate your encouragement to keep at it! All the best to you!
Your video, sound design, and storyline are really great in this. I'd Be very proud of this work! I was thoroughly entertained. :)
Hey thank you for such encouragement! It is greatly appreciated and happy to hear you were entertained!
There's as much work in the production of this video as there is in the bench! Amazing and incredibly entertaining!
Glad you enjoyed the production and even better knowing it provided entertainment value as well 👍 Thank you so much for stopping in!
This edit is amazing. Awesome work.
Hey Kosh, Thank you and it means a lot that you think so! Cool videos you have BTW! Love your camera work, lighting and music! All the best!
Definitely a Canadian ! Who else would use a Robertson screwdriver as a pointer ? Very interesting project ! Thnx !
Hey you noticed the Robertson!! Keen eye sir! and that made me smile :) I'm Glad it held your interest and thanks again!
I have a feeling the creation of this video probably took longer than the creation of the workbench! Incredible and amazing job. I think this is my favorite 'workbench build' on all of TH-cam!!!!
Hey Cameron, you know, you might be right about the video taking longer lol 😂Thanks so much for the awesome feedback mate, its greatly appreciated 👍✨ Wishing you all the best, Paul
This video is incredible! Your video editing is just amazing as your craftsmanship.
I appreciate you taking the time to watch and I'm glad you enjoyed the video Justin! Cheers
Disagree. If he didn't waste so much time with unnecessary editing, maybe he wouldn't have made the mistake that made him redo the table....just sayin
I must say, impressive work. The video, the woodwork, the music... really great stuff and high quality. And thank you very much, loved it.
Hey Andrew it's my pleasure and thank you so much! Looking forward to sharing more in the future with you, Cheers!
Your videos are equally engaging and educational. With the professional quality of editing you apply, you're like the Steven Speilberg of woodworking videos! I'm looking forward to seeing more. Cheers from a fellow BC westcoaster.
Thanks for the compliment, I really appreciate it and I'm glad you enjoy the editing! Cheers from the West Coast!
An amazing build and superior craftsmanship and artistry, not just in the project but the video editing too. Looking forward to seeing more of your projects!
Hi there Tim its nice to hear you enjoyed my video :) Thanks for the encouragement mate! and for your kind comment. All the best to you 👍
“Before the cut…”. Gonna be hearing that in my dreams tonight 😂
That was a fun part to do and glad you enjoyed it William! Thanks so much for stopping in!
The quality of this video is insane! And it shows as I just found it 8 months after release +400k views on 26k subscribers! Amazing job!
That's great to hear! And thanks for the encouraging words, it took a lot of time and effort to make. I hope to be able to produce more videos this year and thanks again!
Well this is my new favorite channel
Ha! Super thrilled you enjoyed my video mate, Thanks so much 👍
I made a bench similar to this based on someone else's plans, and lemme tell ya, it's nowhere NEAR as amazing as yours. Wow. I'm blown away. Now I have to rip mine all up and start over, because this is definitely next level!! Congrats!
Hey Markus, Hope you enjoyed the process of building your own workbench mate! and good on ya for tackling such a task 👍 and thanks you so much for your kind compliment. If you were really going to build another one, or have any questions, always happy to chat vanislandstudio@gmail.com All the best to you Markus, Paul
this is amazing for so many reasons; the craftsmanship, the engineering and the quality description - not to mention the amazing video work!! you need more subs!!
Hey Brian I greatly appreciate the vote of confidence and thanks so much for your kind comments. Looking forward to growing my channel and sharing more with you :) All the best mate!
This is by FAR my favorite workbench build video. Great content. Both useful and entertaining. I can tell you put your soul into this. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Kevin it took a wee bit of time on my end lol, and I'm thankful you enjoyed my build video! and it's my pleasure sharing it with you. Wishing you all the best!
Amazing work, epic editing, skills you’ve got there mate.
Hi Patrick from New Zealand! Thank you so much for that! I greatly appreciate you stopping in! Cheers from a sunny Vancouver morning
Holy hell you are an absolute gem of a channel. Thank you so much for the amazing work!!
I appreciate the kind words, it means a lot to me that you enjoy my channel! Wishing you all the best 👍
Came here because Lincoln Street sent me. The video quality here is insane for such a small channel. Instant sub! We will watch your career with great interest!
Hey Alex, that was incredible of Jon from Lincoln St and thanks so much for stopping in and for the sub! I'm looking forward to sharing more with you. All the best to you!
So glad I saw someone put the miter saw on the right end of the table! Every video I've seen has it on the left, which doesn't make sense for a right hander cutting a long board. Hopefully I get the time to make one of these myself. Beautiful details!!
I put it on that side, because like you mentioned Ben, I like to control the saw with my dominant hand (right), making it easy for me to see the cut, and hold the piece in place with my left hand, providing the maximum for cutting a long board. Thanks for noticing by brother! All the best to you
That was amazingly well edited, filmed and all around created. The build itself is so cool and like I said the video itself was a work of art IMO. I don't see how you only have 11k subscribers. Ill add one more now :)
Hey ShortysCreativeCorner I like your name! Thank you so much for your encouragement! It means a lot to me and I really appreciate your sub :) All the best to you and I'm looking forward to creating more for you, Cheers Paul
Not only is the workbench amazing but the quality of this video is incredible! Liked and subbed!!!
Hi Cameron, great to meet you! and thanks so much for your kind comment!
I gotta learn that snap trick at 11:05. In all my years of projects I haven't been able to do that one. Crazy how fast it makes things come together. I don't understand why people you didn't use that trick every time.
Ha, yes sir, that one is a real time saver for sure :) Now to make it work for clean up as well! thanks for that my brother and all the best to you!
Absolutely incredible, design, function, craftsmanship, editing & the list goes on!
Hey Tyler thanks for your thoughts and nice to hear you enjoyed the build! All the best to you 👍
What a great job and now I am subscribed!!!
Hey Mark thanks so much mate! Glad you stopping in and thank you for your sub ❤️
Fantastic video and well worth the wait!
Your creativity and workmanship is inspiring.
Keep up the great work!
Hey Donovan buddy! Thanks my friend and yup, this one took a while as you would know! Just trying some new things, and having some fun in the shop making dust and noise ahahahah. Thanks again for the support, it means a lot, and I'm Looking forward to seeing you both really soon!! Cheers Buddy
Sick video man. You just earned a new sub. Keep it up!
So awesome you thought so my friend! Thank you so much, and thanks for the encouragement to keep at it! All the best to you!
This one of the most impressive videos I have ever seen. The precision of the woodworking, video quality, etc. The level of detail is impressive.
Nice to hear you enjoyed the little details mate! Thanks so much, All the best to you 👍
Amazing video, storytelling, cinematography and music. Always watch all videos at 2x, but had to do 1x for the music. Btw, using headphones and that sound when going down the ladder at 2:43 freaked me out, sounded like in my room, some unintended binaural effect.
Thank for stopping in and for viewing at 1X! Thats so awesome to hear and the ladder... It stopped me when I was editing! Just sounded different to me too lol and pretty cool you commented on it! Thanks again and all the best to you
Your use of playing cards is inspirational.
Thanks mate!
The video production on this is above the rest. The storytelling, the music, lighting, editing. Amazing. Keep it up.
I'm glad you enjoyed my video Fredrik! and thanks so much for the encouragement to keep at it, All the best to you!
Everything about this video is top notch. Thanks for sharing!
It's my absolute pleasure mate! Cheers and thanks for stopping in!
You had me subbed at the tone knob.
Ahhh that tone knob gets me too mate! Thanks so much for your support and for stopping in to watch my video 👍 All the best to you :)
Me too!
I just made one of these last week took me a week or so to build.. has my miter, table saw and planer all built into it. Very identical build. Mine looks like I bought it from Walmart compared to this.. Amazing detail and perfection. When IM mid project and get flustered I need to keep your skill in mind! Awesome.
Way to go for making your own workbench! and with a built in planer to boot. I think that is a fantastic and creative Idea! I get flustered all the time, you are not alone on that my friend. All the best to you!
Great editing and music choices
i have to agree
Not everyone shares you thoughts on the music lol , so thanks for letting me know Stephen, that you enjoyed the songs and the edits 😄 Wishing you all the best
Apart from making me insanely envious, as to the skill shown both in design and display of craftmanship and of workshop and all its contents tool wise and space. I was immensely entertained. We lesser mortals can but look on in admiration, and continue to dream. Take care and be happy brother. Greetings from the UK.
Hello Norman from the UK :) A BIG Thank you for your kind comment and I'm thrilled you were entertained by my video. Thanks for the inspiration to keep dreaming all the way from Vancouver Canada :)
AI animations in this video are just great.The music is great also....well,everything is just AWESOME!
Thanks so much for letting me know as I continue to learn mate! I'm happy you enjoyed my build video, Cheers 👍
Before the Cut and Rotating shelf had me tranced out and I didn't even toke up before this. amazing.
Ha, thanks for that! I enjoyed your comment 👍 Cheers "Bud" 😉
Hi VanIsle Studio,
Out of curiosity, have you made any progress on this build ?
I can't wait to see more of it, it is outstanding and I do hope you incorporate more tools into it to make it the ultimate workbench.
A thickness planer that would use the entire workbench as an infeed and outfeed would be great, and also, a jointer that would do the same, with possibly a removable "top" to make up for the difference in thickness (workbench's top would be the jointer's outfeed height).
Would also LOVE to see them being built in a mechanism that allows for easy lift/lower of the tools (idea: scissor lift-like mechanism)
Hi There, I've been inundated with house chores lately...doors, windows, roof..etc but.. I did purchase a router lift, only to realize Its the wrong size for my router Ha! I love your ideas, thickness planer, jointer, scissor lift! Sheesh you've given me a lot to think about! Thanks so much for sharing your ideas with me! Now I've got to get to working on it! Cheers
Great production quality ... bench and video. That Doug Fir looks really good.
Thanks! Great to hear you enjoyed the build, and I agree, I'm happy with how the Doug Fir turned out in the end. All the best to you!
I don’t see a link to the pencil sharpener in your links! I so need one of those in my shop! Nice job on the bench and the video. I can appreciate the level of time that went into both. Thanks for the smiles.
Nice to hear my video brought some smile your way mate! That's just amazing for me to hear. Thanks so much for your comment and all the best to you!
Just have to say how well done your video is!
I'm thrilled you enjoyed it Ed! All the best to you!
You should make yourself a planer sled. This would allow you to use the planer as a jointer.
Hey thanks for the suggestion! Now I just need the time to build one for the shop :) I could use it! Thanks so much for stopping in! Cheers
Kudos for the editing, I like the „custom“ music and cues (the hammer is bonkers!)
I'm thrilled you enjoyed the editing mate :) Thanks so much for stopping in!
Fantastic bench, well done. Your production quality and weirdness is a pleasure to watch.
Us woodworkers are truly obsessed with accuracy but you take it to a whole new scary level. 😺
Thanks awesome you enjoyed it and thanks for that Tom! I think I got that way from watching my dad build some guitars when I was a kid :) Cheers Mate and thanks for stopping in!
That was amazing. A great job. I wonder if it is possible to now put a router table on the opposite side.
Hey there, I recently purchased a router lift to install opposite the miter saw, just have to get time to put it in now, Great suggestion and thanks for stopping in!
Who'd have thought that a workbench video would make me cry at the end. Loved the comments about your mom and dad! ❤ And what an amazing bench you've created!
Hi Jandreoni, reading your comment is very dear to me, thank you for recognizing my mom and dad. It's pretty special! All the best to you my friend, Paul
7:36 hate to be one of those TH-cam commenters that give ideas on subjects with limited hands on experience, but without a riving knife, this cut makes me nervous. Your hands are between the fence and the saw so any kick back will rotate them into the saw as you finish the cut. A lot of people that joint on their table saw build a simple jointing sled which allows them to clamp the wood down and keep their hands away from the blade. Might be a good next project. Awesome video by the way
Hey Bruce thanks so much for your comment and looking out for my safety! I'll keep your thoughts in mind for the next time I need to do a cut like that, I like your jointing sled idea! Thanks for stopping in and leaving me your comment!
I basically made my table the same with table saw, mitre saw, and even a spot for my bench top band saw. Seeing the flipping mitre saw makes me want to redo mine. Looks way better than taking it off, setting it on the bottom shelf and screwing a piece of plywood down to fill the hole. Very nice 🤘🏼
Way to go for making your own workbench! and with a spot for your bench top band saw!! That's pretty smart thinking on your part! I'm sure your bench functions and looks pretty awesome too! Cheers and thanks for stopping in :)
I second that one comment, who the hell are you and why haven’t I seen you before? Your content is really good! And good for you for not gluing your first bench
You noticed that I did not use glue Tim, not to many comment on that. I guess its from watching my dad. He always told me you never know if or when you will need to toke something apart. All the best to you mate and thanks for stopping in!
Love the editing and extra bits you add for entertainment.
Glad you found the little bits entertaining Trevor! Thanks for stopping in 👍
I don't need a workbench, and I don't need to flip a mitersaw either...but your work is amazing so I watched anyway.
Hey Rich that is just awesome to read. Thank so much for that and I really appreciate that you stopped in to check it out. All the best to you!
Ah that wood you are using! We had lumber like that in Oregon once....... I like the bench, I may give it a try when I get a place to put it!
Hey my neighbour to the south Ken :) Oregon is so beautiful! Glad you enjoyed the bench mate and all the best to you!
Good grief man, this is inspiring! Your dad raised quite a creative son! Amazing work. Can I ask what camera you're shooting with? I'm guessing something over 4K based on the quality of your pan & scan shots. Maybe a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema 6K?
Hi Troy, I think that is awesome and humbling that you found my video inspiring. Thank you so much for that! It means a lot for me to read your comment, and I love spending all the time I can with my folks. I use Go Pro , Sony A7III with Sigma F1.4 35mm lens, and all those smooth shots came from my new iPhone. If I move quickly with the phone, it appears smoother when slowed down in Final Cut. But when you slow down a clip, you miss frames, so, final cut has a feature called "Optical flow" that fills in those missing frames. That's what makes the clip appear so smooth. All the best Troy!
effing LOVE this video, such an amazing workbench and such a creative and entertaining video... You're an artist!
So awesome to hear! I'm glad you enjoyed my video and thanks so much for stopping in! Cheers
I know this is an old video but man. You’re very talented woodworker and videographer. I’m shocked you domt have millions of subs.
Hey thanks for that 👍 I'm working on it with more to come in 2025 Thanks for watching and all the best to you!
Very excited to see what you have in store for 2025! I spray cabinets in a shop, I also enjoy building. Thanks for sharing your wonderful work. Plus love seeing your father with you I have a similar relationship with my father.
Oh forgot PROUD CANADIAN! from
Alberta !
So well thought out and beautifully executed. The way you film is on point too. I think I can get great gains from watching your work so worthy of a subscription
Hey Bradley thank you for the subscription 😊 and I'm happy to hear you gained a few nuts of knowledge from my video. So awesome and looking forward to sharing more with you 👍 Cheers
Also wondering if this is going to be woodworking channel or a video production channel. You have mad skills at both.
Ha! Glad you enjoyed the production and woodworking, I'm not sure, but definitely projects involving wood I'd say, I really have no idea what I'm doing with the editing or camera, just having some fun learning and hope to start on a new project soon after a summer of roof and windows and builds elsewhere. Cheers and thanks agian!
Great Job! It's nice to see a real craftsman that pays attention to detail. It does matter.
"Its all in the details" is what my father said growing up. Not sure I'm a craftsman yet, but learning more every day, and thanks so much for the encouragement Scott! Its appreciated 👍
Mind blown.....
Thanks so much mate! Cheers
I watched a lot of videos about this but none of the other guys has so much attention to the possibility to adjusting everything. Apart of this I really like your way of making videos. Great stuf!
Glad you enjoyed the video mate! All the best to you
great video! curious why not make a planer sled to face joint?
Hey Brandon! Nice to hear from you, I actually did make a planer sled out of plywood, but I found that the plywood had a slight warp in it over time and use, so... I don't know, maybe I'll eventually purchase a jointer, but not any time soon. Thanks for stopping in and saying hi bud! Cheers!
Cool production. Kept me entertained throughout. Well done
Hey Mike thank you co much and it's nice to hear you were entertained! Cheers!
I really appreciate the list of tools, but you missed one. Where can I get the cool pencil sharpener?
Ha! I wish I knew were I could find a replacement too Jaime, it came with Anna when we got married, I think her grandma sent it over from Japan when she was a wee tot! All the best to you!
wow, thank you verry much! At the beginning of your video, i felt bad…at the end, i have had a big smile on my face and into my heart ♥️ you are genious! Greatings from Germany
Hey Esmeralda from Germany! It is so nice to hear from you and thank you for your kind words. I'm so happy to share a smile of the heart with you! Thank you for this! Paul
Everyone loves to brag about how great the parents, family, and friends are. And here I sit, alone, and forgotten by literally everyone....on my 40th birthday.
🎉 HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎂
cool story
Hey SuperMe63! Happy 40th Birthday to you! and thanks for stopping in on your birthday! Wishing you a great year ahead and all the best to you!
Wow! Absolutely fantastic job on the video (and the bench, such attention to detail!)
Best woodworking video by a country mile! Great job!
Wow thank you for your compliment Andrew! That's a pretty big mile out there in the country and Ill do my best to keep it up for you :) I greatly appreciate your support!
