    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

    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.

    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  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.

    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.

    Great video.
    I too just started really getting into woodworking in November of 2020. It’s been great.
    I’ve made and given away and sold lots of cutting boards, and small tables and other little projects.
    I’m just finishing up building a 10’x12’ “shop” so I can start building things all the time.
    For the past 2 years I had to do all my woodworking outside, so if the weather was to hot, to cold or raining I could work on anything.
    Inspiring story, keep up the great creative work.

    I had heard of your channel by another woodworker but honestly this was the first time I watched. I am unmotivated with the editing as I have several recordings but also have a full time job that pays well with retirement! But honestly I get more satisfaction in the shop! Congratulations on your success!! Hopefully I can grab the motivation to go full time in my shop!

      Thank you for taking the time to watch my channel and for the kind words! I'm glad to hear that you find inspiration in your woodworking hobby, despite having a full-time job. Making videos takes a lot of time and effort, especially with editing, but the satisfaction and joy it brings is worth it. If you ever decide to take the leap and pursue woodworking full-time, I wish you the best of luck! Just remember to keep doing what you love and the success will follow. Keep in touch!

      Hi Jesper I love anything that involves carving wood. Currently looking at trying to carve a family crest for a friend who is retiring. Have been absent for woodwork for a number of years due to a lack of space (only had a garage that was full of "stuff"). My son started woodwork in school and is really into it so I purchased a new shed so we could both get working on project. He has been asked by the school to carve the school sign as a project so it will probably come to me to get this one done which I'm really looking forward to. Keep up the good work Jesper I really want to try some of the pallet projects as I have access to some old pallets here at work and love the sustainability aspect of these projects. All the best Owen@@JesperMakes

    hi jesper , thank you for this video i am starting woodworking and have a stack of half cut pallet wood that will hopefully become a countertop , this video is bringing me so much emotions . i had a really bad day at work and really felt down and watching this video did really bring tears to my eye because it showed me that it is possible for me as well to be able to do this as a living.
    Thank you, much love
