      Sorry to hear about your friend, but I'm glad you're carrying on the passion for pallet projects. Sometimes the craft and a good channel can be a comforting friend. Coffee's on me, virtually speaking! ☕

    the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we wont be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.

    Stop watching the news and go outside; a great prescription for all of us. Spent 10 days in Koge in the summer of 2008 working on the Logos Hope, a missionary ship belonging to OM Ships. Had a chance to spend some leisure time in Copenhagen. Beautiful country loaded with history but the most expensive place I have ever been. Love your work Jesper. Darlington, South Carolina USA

    Hilsen fra Amerika, Jesper. Min danske bedstemor immigrerede hertil i 1917. Jeg gør også krav på skotsk arv, men det er en anden historie.
    Det er hjertevarmende at se meddanskere leve så vidunderlige liv derovre. Du er en inspiration, sir.

    Thanks for your words and support each one of video that you make... I'm from Brazil. I'm getting out off deppression... Many months laying down on my sofa. I got two kids, and their mom doesn't want me to see them. I tried the justice to help me, but even the justice could help. This thing took my life and way of living away.

      I'm really moved by your story. It’s tough, but I’m glad to hear you're finding some solace and perhaps a bit of inspiration in woodworking and videos. Keep pushing forward, and I hope things look up soon.

  • @kryceklx

    Storyteller turns biographer. Jesper, 100K is well deserved because your work is interesting and different and so carefully documented and thoughtfully narrated. To know and understand a little more of how much hard work you have put in to get to where you are is very precious. You are functioning in a still uncharted space; a place where anyone in the world can have opinions about what you do, where likes and views are actually your physical bread and butter, where your fame is fragile and ephemeral. Where your work includes bearing the invisible burden of generating subscribers, let alone editing video and charging batteries and then actually making things. It is an inspirational story, one of sharing and reclaiming, one of risk taking and of joy. Thank you for what you do. May the gods of the sawdust continue to inspire and grow you and the many others that you reach.

    • @JesperMakes
      @JesperMakes  2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Wow, your comment is truly a work of art! Your words perfectly capture the ups and downs of being a content creator on TH-cam. The fact that you took the time to understand the hard work and effort that goes into creating videos is truly appreciated. I can definitely relate to the idea of functioning in an uncharted space, where likes and views are the equivalent of bread and butter. It's a wild ride, but I'm grateful for the opportunity to share my passions and inspire others through my work.
      The mention of the "gods of sawdust" made me laugh, and I couldn't agree more. May the creative juices continue to flow and inspire us all! Thank you for your support and for being a valuable member of my community. I'm thrilled to have you along for the journey.

    I have had a wonderful maker communication with your channel over the last year that has been a treasure for me.
    I am grinning as I watch this video and reminisce about my memories with Jesper.
    When I was hospitalized with an injury and feeling down, or
    when I was struggling with the activity of making a video, Jesper was always there to cheer me up and give me a gentle push, you are irreplaceable.
    So I am as happy for your achievement as I am for mine.
    I say again...!!

    Saw you on Dainer Made, and went to the link he put on his page. Love what you did for his son and his Papa with the bench. Watched this video and you got another subscriber. Love your approach to woodworking and your attitude of never stop trying. Love the work your doing. I'm building a house with a woodworking shop. I retired a couple of years ago and now I've finally got some time to do some woodworking. I'm planning on using scrap wood/pallets and milling my own wood much like you and Dainer have done. I'll be teaching my 5 grandkids that live adjacent to my property, and think teaching them how to repurpose old stuff into new is a valuable lesson. Love to see what other projects you have planned.

    • @JesperMakes
      @JesperMakes  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hello!
      Firstly, a big thank you for taking the time to jump from Dainer Made's channel to mine. Mark is a great friend and a phenomenal woodworker, and I'm honored to have been able to contribute to his son and Papa's bench.
      It's heartwarming to hear that my work resonates with you, especially as you embark on this new woodworking journey in retirement. The idea of using reclaimed materials, such as pallets, and passing on the art of repurposing to the next generation is something very close to my heart. Your grandkids are fortunate to have a hands-on, resourceful, and environmentally-conscious role model in their lives. The skills and values they'll inherit from you will undoubtedly serve them well.
      Stay tuned for more projects on the horizon. And as you progress with your woodworking endeavors, I'd love to hear updates and maybe see some of the magic you and your grandkids create in your workshop!
      Warm regards,
      Jesper

    At ~11:59 is this GORGEOUS square table made with log cookies and structural wood pieces floating in a stunning light Cerulean blue "sea" of epoxy. The corners are supported by [bar-bell?] shaped ties (as opposed to "bowties"). The effect is incredibly beautiful-- artistry at its finest! Secondly, you seem to have discovered the magical secret to telling a story-within-a-story: your progress shots of chopping down that tree interspersed with the progression of the video's story perfectly meshes! Brilliant! Love your work! Love your videos! Love your art!
