I’m going to add onto this by saying I love woodworking but when I do it I always mess up at various points like every single project and I’ve only really gotten to do woodworking at high school so far (graduated last year) so whenever I messed up I got glares and felt so bad about myself and my abilities even though I do end up making great stuff whenever I got the opportunity for creative freedom. Seeing your mistakes and how you also get upset and frustrated about it makes me feel a lot better knowing that this happens to other people and even though sometimes material gets scrapped etc you keep going. Thank you so much.
Keith. Always a pleasure watching your video's and editing. Your humility for not editing the screw ups is what gives most of us the thrill of woodworking and that anything can be fixed... just don't tell and no one will ever notice.
Some channels I lurk for months, even years before I decide if I like it enough to follow it. This one, the intro and withinn 45 seconds in, I knew I'd watch this, I'd learn something, and I'd enjoy the process. I subscribed and liked. Cant wait to watch! 1st time ever 45 second subscription!
Also thank you so much for showing the mistakes, your thought process and how you correct on the Fly. Invaluable! True craftsmanship, turning mistakes into a masterpiece. The final result looks like a fine piano! nice work
So, I subscribed for the woodworking , but the cat made the ultimate decision for me , only to now find there are two cats 😁 watching this as my second video of yours, triple happiness to watch!! Yay! Great work, sweet cats ! (I miss my two previous cats)
"So hopefully I wont make the same mistakes, I'll make new ones" No truer words have been spoken my friend lol.. There's always something, nothing ever goes according to plan. That's for sure. But thats how we learn. You accommodate for one thing, then something else is like, "oh dont forget me" after its too late lol. I really enjoy watching your vidoes. Im new to your channel, but love to see when people take pride in their work. Well done. Also seeking your cat peek through that window like "hey you forgot about me." That was priceless lmao.
LOL. Yeah, unfortunately, you can't every plan for the unexpected. Thanks so much for the kind words and watching my videos. The 😺😺 and I appreciate it!
I love the fact that you show just how realistically woodworking is. The minor mistakes we all continue to make even with years of experience in the trade is what makes us all a better wood worker! Perseverance and overcoming are huge payoffs Keith! By far, my favorite build I’ve watched! P.S. Every build on here is my favorite 🙌🏻 Love this build and I can’t wait to watch the window sill trim, your desk riser, floating shelves, and your commission desk builds if we are lucky enough to watch the entire process 🙏🏻
Thanks Christian! It’s definitely a battle out in the shop every day despite how much experience you may have. Unexpected things just crop up and mistakes happen. That is the challenge of it all. 😂
While errors and snags are frustrating to encounter, I love that you aren't glossing over them and embracing the process and problem solving you go through to overcome them. Especially with your drive for perfection and curiosity for different approaches. Killer as always! ❤
As this cat looks for its comfort zone, It seems that they are choosing by looking beyond the curve that softens the corners. A desk that takes advantage of its simple design is a relaxing place. Hello from Japan.
I always smile from ear to ear when I see you're released a new video; between your stellar narration, Jerry and Lola, and the projects themselves, it's just a quality watch all the way through. Thanks, and WOW I'm glad you were able to overcome the challenges on this one! Can't wait to see the next video.
As a new woodworker that still makes a lot of little mistakes, it's encouraging to see that someone with your pedigree also makes mistakes on projects.
I'm a fairly new woodworker, and I really appreciate you showing us both where & what mistakes were made and your solutions on how to remedy them. Excellent work. 🪵🪚📐🐈👍
It's great to show the mistakes and how you fixed them. A lot of the craft consists of knowing how to fix your mistakes, so thanks for not editing those out.
You do wonderful work, but it makes my heart glad to see that no matter how hard we plan ahead, I'm.not the only one who has to make in project adjustments. 🙂
Now you need to add that copper band into the front of your desktop. Lol jk, i think this came out great. So much work for such a small desk. This is a prime example why perfectionist woodworkers like us are hard to find. So much goes into these things behind the scenes that most would never know. Bravo bud, well done.
A great job done with your own hands, as always. But this time it has baffled me, that with the perfectionist that you are, you have had those problems in the project, it is not normal for you. Congratulations and continue creating these wooden beauties.
@@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking Nooo! Don't use it! I foresee dings and dents and cat paw scratches and cofee stains! 😄It'll be a great work place, for sure!
I watched the commissioned desk builds prior to watching this one. I somehow got out of order. It was very cool to see you react to the mistakes in this one. I like learning how to adjust when it's not a customers project, giving you the opportunity to fix it without rebuilding a whole bunch of the desk. With that in mind I'll probably watch this about 10-15 times and make notes. It's like a training course for dummy's
Glad it was useful! And yes, I learned a lot on the first one and it definitely helped me not make the same mistakes twice. It saved a lot of headaches.
Great vid and project. Thanks for sharing the reality of the process with challengesand solutions - including the trepidation in moving on to next and risky steps.
Beautiful job. If it's any consolation, I've been building cabinets and furniture for close to forty years and I still have those dog-gone-it moments. Thanks for being honest with the shortcomings, if nothing else it makes me feel a lot better.
Love the fact that you dropped NARDS in there!! Thank you for not editing mistakes. It's nice to see that even the masters make mistakes sometimes and they are ok. Beautiful desk!!
As soon as he said that, I thought, "Wolf Man's got _nards!"_ (I don't know how common the term is/was outside of "The Monster Squad", but that's where _I_ heard it.)
They look great, but surge protection is not the same as Battery Backup. If you live in an area where power ever goes out, battery backup will actually protect your equipment and gives you time to turn things off properly.
@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking I do want to thank you for using walnut Rubio over the pure. A lot of people on youtube dont realize that Walnut will lighten in color over time. So hopefully they will catch on with what you are doing finish wise.
I just loved this video. Thank you. Like the previous comment, I also really appreciate you recording the mistakes. These are the places where I learn the most! I'm building a desk right now and will be reviewing this video again for your techniques. Thanks again!
Since you have tabletop gap(s) along the wall, you can always mask off the top and then apply some plaster to the wall and feather it out. Sand and apply texture(if needed) to the wall to blend in. Nice work and video!
I just love your channel Keith. Your videos are so well done, no nonsense and you show when you make a mistake (obviously we all do) rather than skip over or hide it. I think Jerry is the coolest cat, he could care less that he is in your way. It adds a little something to your videos and makes me wish I had a cat like him. The cat door is very clever and well done. Keep up the good work and I hope you get another 300k sub's, you deserve it.
Love your videos, KJ. This one felt particularly close to my heart. Seeing the screw ups, and how you dealt with them one after another, really shows what it’s like to be a woodworker! I laughed, I cried… Thanks!
Awesome desk. I especially like the curved front. One suggestion since you had to need thin kerfs for the drawer fronts. I use 7-1/2" circular saw blades. Their kerf is approximately1/16" and they fit my table saw arbor. I know it's only 1/32" difference, but it can make quite a difference when trying to maintain your grain match.
You always kill it! Looks great. Love seeing the F ups too, so mortals like me don’t feel so bad making dumb mistakes. Looking forward to the floating shelves as I’m starting a set with a 90-degree turn on one.
Bad ass work. I'm about to put a bar counter in a wide space in my basement and was thinking how i was going to make the corners not being squared work and your template is exactly how i'll do it now. Thank you!
Keith as always I learn from your builds. Love it. I always think that I have an attention to detail, until I see what you do.... Thanks for teaching me what that actually means.
Man I love this video! So casual, approachable, and you’re really hitting on the minutia of everything without going into detail about some of the standard stuff. Appreciate the effort and info!!
Thanks for the video KJ. Your uploads are the ones to which I most look forward every time. You are an inspiration to me, I wish someday I'll come close to your skill level. The midset of making it as perfect as you can instead of just "good enough" is also admirable... thank you very much for these master classes
Another beautiful piece. If it wasn't for the screw-ups, woodworking would be such a boring hobby and/or profession. Lucky for me, I'm very good at keeping it interesting ....
First-time I watched your video. I enjoy your humor and your supervisor. MAYBE I will be the craftsman you are. My wife tells me I can not even paint? I painted our bathroom. Then she tells me I put the paint on upside down. 😢
Maestro, I’m not sure how you only have 300k subscribers. Looking forward to watching your channel continue to grow and hit 500k and then 1 million. Beautiful desk, loved seeing the solutions to the snags.
Hey Keith - super fun build/video. As always, appreciate you walking us through all the kawazi bone-head mistakes and creative solutions haha. Makes for a fun and authentic ride!
It's always a pleasure to watch your videos but also a consolation to see that mistakes also happen to great woodworkers like you. By the way your desk looks very nice.
@@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking I do think this is the real skill of woodworking: not only how to use your tools but rather how to turn a mistake into something nice, and even how to magnify what gets fucked up.
new to your channel (just saw the table build with the curved legs and linked to this one), your woodworking skills are amazing, especially how you fix your mistakes, but the commentary is brilliant, think i'm going to binge watch a lot of your posts
Fantastic build. And as someone who has said WTF many time, and I mean many many many times, in my shop before, I really laughed when you realized your front piece was too short. We have all been there, man. Love this! I also love those Mockett power banks. I will be picking up some myself, for sure.
Great build! You are probably the best content creator for me right now. I mean you deal with all of us (your audience) and Jerry and Lola’s continual judgment! Thanks for sharing your hard work.
Alright Keith! Love the video and the desk turned out really great. My favorite part was "Okay, now for the next butt clenching operation". Looking forward to the follow ons.
I recall some years ago, some folks found it more cost-effective to make their own acoustic panels using layers of towels, over buying acoustic foam. "DIY Perks" channel demonstrates how much better the towels perform to muffle sound over cheaper packaging foams and pillows/cushions. "Soundproof Guide" channel mentions using a fire retardant spray for fabrics on the towels for extra safety.
Yeah, you can certainly make wooden frames and fill with Rockwool insulation and then cover with towels or fabric. That just isn't really the aesthetic I'm looking for.
My first KJCW video via the algorithm/recommended videos feed. Great work here, Keith. Mockett is legit - I've ordered from them in my role dealing with AV stuff. New subscriber!
This is what I like to see, woodworkers that don't have an ego and are willing to show their mistakes and how they fix them. Well done mate.
Thank you kindly! I greatly appreciate the comment. Cheers! #mistakeshappen

Yeah, this is definitely an honest process, here- and it actually empowers the little guy (me) into thinking… I can do KJ builds!
This is a prime example of a custom build adding so much value to a space that might have been otherwise lost.
Thank you so much for saying that! 🤙🏼😎

Alright Keith! Love the video and the desk turned out really great. My favorite part was "Okay, now for the next butt clenching operation". Looking forward to the follow ons.
😂 Just wanted to give everyone an accurate description and visual of what was about to happen!
Nice built.
Thanks! 🙌
Awesome build
Thanks a lot!
I recall some years ago, some folks found it more cost-effective to make their own acoustic panels using layers of towels, over buying acoustic foam. "DIY Perks" channel demonstrates how much better the towels perform to muffle sound over cheaper packaging foams and pillows/cushions. "Soundproof Guide" channel mentions using a fire retardant spray for fabrics on the towels for extra safety.
Yeah, you can certainly make wooden frames and fill with Rockwool insulation and then cover with towels or fabric. That just isn't really the aesthetic I'm looking for.
Stunning work, Keith! Really well done! 😃
The design looks amazing!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thank you, my friend!! 🤙🏻😎
