    If you’d like to monetise your efforts and do more builds like this, I suggest you put this material together as a showcase reel for building trade show stands for commercial companies? It came out amazing, I’m sure a lot of companies would love to have you design and build something as nice as this.

    Hey, don't sell yourself short. If you don't ask for it, you won't get it when it comes to stuff like this. You shouldn't be doing these gigs for free if it was an invitation, "exposure" is not a currency to be traded, it's an empty promise that usually doesn't get fulfilled.
    Next time you get this type of invitation tell them they can either invite one of your sponsors, and work out a deal with your sponsor to get paid, or treat them as the sponsor, because that's the business relationship that happened here. You weren't being invited as a favor, you were being brought in to fill floor space and attract people which is to their benefit. If they want the benefit of not having empty booth space all over the convention, they can start paying for it.
    Doing things for free in the name of "self promotion" is how a lot of people in your line of work are getting screwed out of their fair share. And it is your fair share. You are owed compensation for your time and effort for something like this, and when you do it for free that means someone else walked away with your money.

    Hi! What you did with €1000 of material is jaw dropping. Booths are incredibly expensive. Creatively and execution wise a masterpiece. I think you have stumbled on another hidden talent you have. Maybe something you can monitize. Your team was incredible.

    After 7 years of unemployment, I volunteered to work full-time at the Bicycle Ambassy of Ghent, Belgium. I GET my HANDS DIRTY every day :)

    The thing is: you essentially prove your self to be precisely capable of putting a original custom-built show booth for any company out there. Resourcefullness and creativity are clear so with a decent budget you are essentially a top level professional. Remind me in a way the Initial videos of Jimmy Diresta...as doing custom builds.

    Makes me laugh that your mission statement is "Get Hands Dirty", when you are so neat and pristine in your work =;-)) It would be interesting to see if there was an uplift in your subscribers after the show. Anyway; interesting work, as ever, thank you.

    Chris, what a truly beautiful booth and exhibit. I have much respect for you and all of your hard work. You are amazing! I'm glad you had all of the support of friends and family. Your sister reminds me of my sister. I don't know what we would do without them. Thanks for all you do to inspire me. Take care of yourself. It's okay to get your hands dirty playing besides just working. Sending prayers for healing and rejuvenation of mind, body, and soul! 💗💗

    I admire your tenacity and willingness to fund such a project. YOU are what you were selling and an admirable job it was. I do hope you managed to be rewarded for your efforts enough to offset the cost entailed. Family and friends get a big applause from me. And SISTERS are great. I have three and am so glad to have them in my life. Yours must be one of your biggest treasures.

    As someone who has loaded in shows all over the place for many years I can appreciate how much work you put into it... However, since I've never had to actually build the set from scratch on site I truly appreciate how much more stressful that must have been and how impressive your final result was. Well done!

    this was an incredible achievement. I once worked in a shop that built things like this; most everything was pre assembled and held together by "roto-locks". you should check those out, for next time. I really applaud your efforts and your design as always is really great. I wish you all the best in 2020 and look forward to your future projects

  • @SylviePereiraSyPer

    You built it and then had to dismantle it just after. What a frustration when it came out so nice .... It would have been perfect for a shop ;)

  • @hazembata
    @hazembata 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    This was great. You have a nice eye for design. You should sell your services to companies...designing and managing trade booths. Having people press their own book cover is a GREAT idea. Little things like that make the experience memorable.

    It gave me a lot of inspiration and motivation to get back to work really, i finally started to take medication for my issues after years away from my workshop, and i can feel the motivation coming back when i watch videos like yours! As soon as i am up and running i will purchase a Hoodie from your shop and proudly wear it everyday in my woodshop making tons of dust with my guitars :D !!!

    Wow what a fantastic display. I use to work in exhibition stand design and manufacture 20 years ago. That $1000 euros went a LONG WAY sista. There is no way you would of paid for just the vinyl and plexiglass glass for that money here in Oz. Love that coloured waterproof MDF wish we had it here.🙏🙏🙏🇦🇺💕

  • @TheAcousticWarfare
    @TheAcousticWarfare 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Super impressive! I work as shopfitter and we do a fair amount of work like this. As well as bar/cafe/restaurant fitouts etc. You did a great job and the booth looks awesome! I can totally appreciate how stressful these installs can be, and how heartbreaking it is to smash it all up at the end!
    Im not sure if you had the option/space etc to pre fabricate more off site but thats how we try to do it, the more work we can do in the comfort of our workshop the better.
    Love your channel, you are an inspiration! Hope you have a great year!

  • @sgsax
    @sgsax 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I saw this come together on IG, but it's very cool to see the whole process here. I can imagine how stressful it must have been to get it all done but it looks fantastic! I've always enjoyed your art and message, but I also love your sister's art and think it looks awesome scaled up that big. Your logo life-sized with the 3D letters also looks great. Overall, the entire display is just brilliant. I'm glad the expo went well for you. Thanks for sharing!

  • @1959ticktock
    @1959ticktock 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I cannot understand how you managed to design, project manage, and construct this display yourself. And you produced a fantastic video. Can't see how you managed it. I thought, won't like this video - a booth in a trade show? Not really. However, it was engrossing all the way through. You've got fantastic family and friends, hope you appreciate them. And you take care of yourself as well. Don't burn out. We need you.

  • @woodvibecreation

I actually decided to change my life and get my hands dirty while I was watching a video of you one year and a half ago. Today, many things are not easy, but I am so happy that I took this decision. It's one of the best choice of my life and I am really greatful to you for the inspiration you gave me. Keep going, do what you like

    I used to work for an event company building custom booths like this. To get something like that would cost a minimum of a $100000 I've built some that were in the millions. Obviously they're not usually built on site we usually bring premade sections so it's much faster but the time you don't have on the show floor is in transferred in the shop...
    All in all, keep up the good work

    I can´t stop mentioning how "proud" I feel for your work as a portuense. I don´t know you or even understand fully your work, but I admire it and keep watching all of your videos. In the end, no matter the content, people follow people they like, and you're so likable in your narration and approach to things. Hope 2020 is the balance year you reach for and I'll be back to being a Patreon again soon.
    PS- too bad I didn´t know you were in Exponor (I live right next to it!). I'll keep an eye on your work and hopefully one day I'll say hello.

    Usar o valchromat pra fazer uma caixa de bateria (snare drum) com um modo de construção em stave. Seria lindo e com muitas possibilidades de cores e tamanhos, quem sabe uma bateria inteira com tambores coloridos?!?!
    Seria sensacional... e completaria seu vídeo do ukelele. Se precisar de alguma ajuda, como baterista há 20, estou aqui pra ajudar!! Parabéns pela exposição do Concreta!
