    That absolute monstrosity looks like it belong as a set piece in a John Waters movie - and I mean that in the best way possible. Well done. I love it

    Hi Dave, long time listener, first time caller. Actually, I've been watching since the Drunken Woodworker days. Just wanted to say this is my favorite video that you've made. Love the project. Laughed a lot watching and rewatching the accident in the intro. Love that you allow your direction and vision on the project to morph as you progress. All just good stuff. Ok, bye.

    It would be amazing to redo this project on the lathe, then cut in in half with the bandsaw, insert the lava lamp, and re-glue.

    This one took many unexpected turns, and I love it! Completely unnecessary project, but hey, we need more of that in our lives, don't we? So many fun things in this video. And I learned a new safety tip! I'll file "always cut towards yourself" right after "always start the drill before screwing". Really enjoying your tone lately. It's a lot of fun! Thanks for sharing!

    Great video! So many great moments. I haven’t been to Spencers in 100 years. Dude! “I stabbed myself”. Adding the chamfer on the joint is the exact advice my artist son just gave me on a box project where I was struggling with the lid to box joint.

  • @danielrleal

    Fantastic project. Can’t believe you came at the magheads like that. I for one am a big fan of magnets but it’s your project so you are free to “screw it up” however you please. That being said, this turned out great.

    4:38 so a pro tip from a chick who isn’t a “planner”. Just tape it together. You can still get a sense of how to proceed but without the “oh snap that’s backwards moment” that might happen.
    I honestly thought that you were gonna use a wood burner to enhance the gap.
    You just leveled up the college dorm!! I love the piece. It is just cool.

    “Don’t try this at home... I’m a professionally trained TH-camr...” Lol!
    This was a fun project! The end product was really cool and it seemed like you had fun with it.
    I love how you just kept rolling with the punches, whether it was the router taking a bite out of the workpiece, or stabbing yourself in the chest... lol I’m glad you’re ok!

  • @kyleacox
    @kyleacox ปีที่แล้ว

    I knew that you made music for your videos but something about noticing the labeling of the music in this video made me realize that I really love the sonic landscape you create in your videos. It made me realize that your music is definitely part of why I love your videos and I really enjoy how using many of the same clips has almost created a sonic branding of your videos.

    I love it... for a moment I think that lamp shade needs to be twice the size, but then lava part would loose its place... love the orange in the circles
