I try to look at in a positive way, even if the creator tells us that it's not intended for amateurs like us. It's another challenge to overcome, and it feels good when we do it. But I feel you. I have a very low budget. No way I can afford a $2,000.00 jointer. Gotta wonder why he makes a video to save a few bucks on a frame, and also says he's targeting woodworkers who can afford expensive, professional specialty tools and who can also easily afford high quality pre-made frames. Doesn't make sense to me. But I still appreciate his knowledge and tips, and I'll find a way to do it well without a big shop and high-end tools worth many thousands of dollars.
Would love for you to make a video for those of us without a table saw or planer. Nothing is dead simple when you don't have a shop full of "basic" woodworking tools.
I agree. So many DIY videos on TH-cam should start with: Step 1: Have a spacious garage or work area that can fit a table saw Step 2: Get a table saw delivered and assembled in the work area Some of us live in a small apartment on the 5th floor, and don't have the money for a private workshop with a saw table. Hence the DIY search for easy frames we can build at home...
Your a cool person. Also when listening to the podcast with Bob and Jimmy, you're always thoughtful and respectful. More people like you would make a better world. Thumbs up for you sir.
Hey what’s sup everyone 👋. I’m a woodworker with my own business and I just found you not too long ago and your videos are really crazy cool on how you break steps down and show us more than most people do. I’m learning a couple new things I never knew so thank you ! Definitely subscribing
@@Tikorous imagine a woodworker needing to follow a "dead simple" walkthrough. Target audience is everything. I'm a diy-er not a woodworker and would be unable to follow this "dead simple" but not so simple walkthrough. I have a circular saw, I have a jigsaw, I have a hand plane. I have a mitre jig I can use a handsaw in. I do not have a table saw, I do not have a jointer, I do not have whatever a "points gun" is. I haven't got the room or inclination to make special jigs ahead of time for something advertised as "dead simple" nor do I have any clue wtf is meant by a "spline jig". If you have to make special jigs for a project, that's not dead simple. That's actually a complex project as it requires you to do sub-projects just to complete the parent project.
@@Tikorous I'm not sure Callan. Maybe you're just a special snowflake that needs that extra bit of attention. Me I'm fine with generic tutorials, just rather they were truthful with their descriptions, save me wasting my time and what do you know 30 seconds after making my comment to you originally I found a video that did exactly what it says on the tin.
Picture frame sled is set up and my immediate thought is I need to make that-and before the thought is processed, the video link is right there. My man!
I have overthought this process for years. I can't believe how easy you make this look. I know enough about woodworking to know I can do what you showed here. Thank you. Now I'm going to find your video on building that sled.
Ya the sled thing is honestly the main key here cus if we all just had one of those...we could use anything to cut,dremel,circular saw,tabke saw, jig saw, sissors, or wtv material we wanted to use for a frame practically...it's just getting those stinken angles down precisely perfect. So ya im backn up here and going to attempt building that sled thinga ma bob. Thank you, thi im noe starting a different project as i always end up doing once i look up how to make anything diy on TH-cam,lol. i like your OBEY poster btw
I saw those rules years ago in art school and had forgotten about them. It's the perfect time to introduce my Animation students to that wisdom. Thanks for the reminder and inspiration. And of course, the frame and the process are awesome...
I just failed at making a picture frame in my shop tonight. Then I came inside to find a video or two to help me out and watched this one...wow! Thank you so much! Not only for the instructions but for the inspiring "rules," especially #4. I had fun even though I was failing tonight (multiple times, in multiple ways) because it was indeed an experiment. Tomorrow I will succeed.
This is one of my favorite videos... iv watched it more than 10 times now 😅, and i never get bored... always get inspired, you are a master creator... with both video creation and woodworker! Thank you for sharing these rules, never seen anything like it before 😃😃 Love rule 5, u one of the wood gurus on youtube, i learnt all my woodworking skills straight from youtube you guys make woodworking. Really enjoying my new hobby
Your ability to incorporate your creative path, past projects, your music and editing abilities, old and new artists, and non preachy advice is taking your biz to the next level. gladly would i sift through the bullshit purveyed on youtube in exchange for this. thanks and cheers from KY!
I made one recently. I made a mistake, as the wood stops were too forward on the sliding tray. It makes the jig unbalanced ans a bit dangerous to use. I have to do it again. Hope you can use my experience and avoid making the same mistake.
Dude, I´ve seen you make a bunch of these picture frames and I finally decided to make one for myself and filmed the whole thing for my channel. Without a jig though, but being extremely carefull about the 45 degree edges, thanks for the inspiration young sir!
Excellent rules! Excellent video! I don’t know how (if?) you knew that the lack of music would help with this one but for me it gave the rules that much more impact. Thanks for sharing!
Sorry I realized that 2 minutes after I said that. My bad. I loved your videos and my wife is wanting me to make that sled now! Thank you for a great set of videos!
There are so many things you put in this video that I needed to learn, and the links to purchase help so much! Thank you for making this vid! And that poster...I NEED one! Awesome!
I have no idea why I never made the connection before on your picture frame jig video that the rabbet goes over the ruler therefore eliminating the personally frustrating issue of determining that appropriate measurement when making frames. Thank you for another lightbulb moment David. Great video brother
rule number 4 i've been saying for like 25 years! never heard anyone else except for allie fox from the mosquito coast say it dachshunds are the best, too! we have two that are currently barking like crazy at the window
The frame is beautiful and it looks like it was easy to make! Thanks for introducing me to Corita Kent! Keep on sharing your inspiration and inspiring.
Thank you for explaining that the jig "measures" the length for you automatically based on how the rabbet fits over the ruler once butted up against the stop. Now I get it. :-)
If you wanted the frame to be really heavy duty, for a mirror or something heavier like that, would you make any changes to how you reinforced it? More robust staples? Screws?
"So let's run them over the joiner" *sighs, takes out his rubber sanding block* But seriously, I needed this. It's gonna be a lot cheaper than Ross, Nextdoor, or Ebay. And much more satisfying. Thanks for that, and for giving us Rule 4. I'm an amateur cook, can confirm. 😄
For a moment, this felt like I was watching the Jerry Maguire spinoff for woodworking. Almost want to listen again just for the messages. Kinda like Mr. Fox in the movie.

Yup. Stupid waste of time
Why is every diy channel I watch on TH-cam got a full workshop with every tool imaginable
Not a DIY channel. This is a woodworking channel.
But they got a point it's hard for us at home to follow along when we totally have maybe 1 of the tools you got here
I try to look at in a positive way, even if the creator tells us that it's not intended for amateurs like us. It's another challenge to overcome, and it feels good when we do it.

when you say "dead simple" you should also say have a whole lot of machinery as well. lol

I had no clue it was this easy to cut glass. This is a game changer. Thank you!
Nice juxtaposition of the rules with your build. That's different, and delightful. Thanks.
The only rule is work. Something that is lost today. Work produces a sense of confidence and accomplishment.
Thank you. Your video is amazing for me.
This one is my favorite
Picture frame sled is set up and my immediate thought is I need to make that-and before the thought is processed, the video link is right there.
My man!
I have overthought this process for years. I can't believe how easy you make this look. I know enough about woodworking to know I can do what you showed here.
Thank you.
Now I'm going to find your video on building that sled.
I came here for the picture frame help, and I stayed for the life lessons. This was inspiring, and I am grateful! Thank you!
Now I've looked up that artist and am even more inspired. Thank you again.
You have the best attitude in your videos, puts me in a good mood every time
Oh man, thanks Randall!!
I've been watching your videos since I began woodworking and I still suck at woodworking!
It's because of me...😏
Fantastic video
Really liked this video, thanks!

*Great Video* 👍👍👍
You look like "Sean" from Psych! Great video btw 😄
Man you do fun and awsome work !!!!! Thanks!!!
A simply brilliant video. I ordered posters before the video ended!
That's so cool! Thanks Garrett!
The picture frame jig is a neat idea. I will have to look up that video.
I saw those rules years ago in art school and had forgotten about them. It's the perfect time to introduce my Animation students to that wisdom. Thanks for the reminder and inspiration. And of course, the frame and the process are awesome...
Thanks Shawn! Will you be at the Bay Area Maker Faire this year?
@@MakeSomething I'll be there.
Very cool. Thanks
those are some good rules
That was just a quality video... Had a few layers, well tied together. Really enjoyed watching it.

I like your attitude!
I love your style, bro!
Great video. Came here looking to make a frame. Little did I know I get some classroom education.
Awesome video!
Number 8 is my favorite and hits home the most. doing those two things at once really paralyzes me in the shop.
I loved the juxtaposition of the rules next to the step-by-step instruction of the video itself - pretty masterfully done, sir!!!
This is cool.
You are my Jedi master....
😉 See you in a few weeks!
awesome video
What a great video. I loved those rules. And a nice bonus, I've been wanting to fix our lawn and find a way to manage it without harmful chemicals.
Hey GREAT video! Thanks :)
Nice one dude!
Cool video 😎
This guy is the greatest teacher I have ever seen...changed my life...
Love the quotes, love your passion.
I love it. It is so easy and effective. I loove the 10 rules as well.
It's not often you find inspiration from a woodworking video but this one does the trick! Thank you!
Thank you! The poster motivates me so I'm glad others are being inspired as well!
@@MakeSomething where did you purchase that poster? I would like to put it up at work for my crew.
There should be a link in the description. Came from the Corita Art Center
@@MakeSomething of course it is in there! I just got excited that you wrote back! I will look in there! Thank you and love your channel!
I really appreciate this video for much much more than your framing demo. Really solid channel bro, solid work here
great - thanks a lot. Like the rules.

I've always loved your picture frame jig. I need to just buckle down and finally make the dang thing because I have a ton of frames to make!
I made one recently. I made a mistake, as the wood stops were too forward on the sliding tray. It makes the jig unbalanced ans a bit dangerous to use. I have to do it again. Hope you can use my experience and avoid making the same mistake.
Don't let your jigs be dreams!

Very inspirational. I wish all teachers lived with this in mind!
Stanley Shostak I wish even a tenth of my teachers would read this.
Excellent rules!
Excellent video!
I don’t know how (if?) you knew that the lack of music would help with this one but for me it gave the rules that much more impact. Thanks for sharing!
That sled is fantastic
I totally got a "10 Bullets" vibe. I think this is my favorite video of yours yet, David...
You could be Joe Pantoliano's younger brother. Love your videos, always helpful and easy to understand. Thank you.
So awesome! I just wanted to learn to make frames..so much more here! And my lawn could look better ☘️
You need to make a video on that framing sled! Great video.
I do have a video on the sled. Link in the description
Sorry I realized that 2 minutes after I said that. My bad. I loved your videos and my wife is wanting me to make that sled now! Thank you for a great set of videos!
This video forced me to hit the bell for all!! My favourite woodworking channel, really amazing woodworking!!
Rule #8 just blew my mind. That would be a great topic for all the maker podcasts!
Awesome video. Like the incorporation of Kent's rules in the project. Well done.
I wish I had all your gadgets. One step at a time 😊
That's was funny... vogue vogue. Haha. Good sense of humor
Great rules. And another rabbit hole to head down.
There are so many things you put in this video that I needed to learn, and the links to purchase help so much! Thank you for making this vid! And that poster...I NEED one! Awesome!
Ditto!! I need that poster too
love the rules. kinda needed that right now as i'm breaking out from a low spot. thanks for sharing.
Wishing you a quick recovery from that low spot. Thanks Les!
Love the build. Gonna try soon.
Point Driver, where have you been all my life?
I have no idea why I never made the connection before on your picture frame jig video that the rabbet goes over the ruler therefore eliminating the personally frustrating issue of determining that appropriate measurement when making frames. Thank you for another lightbulb moment David. Great video brother
It really speeds up the process! Thanks Jason!
Love it. A simple but elegant frame to let the words shine.
Hoody transition is 🔥🔥🔥
Ha!
rule number 4 i've been saying for like 25 years! never heard anyone else except for allie fox from the mosquito coast say it dachshunds are the best, too! we have two that are currently barking like crazy at the window
I've never actually seen how those little flat holders on the back get put into the frames. Interesting!
The frame is beautiful and it looks like it was easy to make! Thanks for introducing me to Corita Kent! Keep on sharing your inspiration and inspiring.
David one of you best videos to date! Thanks for all you do!
Wow, thank you Daniel!
You inspire me @David
Reading this inspires me!
I hate rules, but I love wisdom. I will be making this exact picture frame with the rules. .thank you.
Thank you for explaining that the jig "measures" the length for you automatically based on how the rabbet fits over the ruler once butted up against the stop. Now I get it. :-)
Great tribute video
Make Something Rules of Making
Rule #1- Be safe.
Rule #2 - Have fun.
Rule #3 - Make something.
Rule #4 - Stay passionate.
Ha! Yes!
@@MakeSomething another excellent video! God bless you and yours! Keep up the excellent work.
I need this sign in my shop!
3 & 4 are backwards
Rule 5 - Sand in the place where you live.
EVERY maker should have these rules hanging in their shop!!! Thanks for sharing this.
No nonsense picture frame, I loved it.
Great work dude. Can you explain the table saw sled and how would I make one?
Nailed it! I mean...err...stapled it.
These rules are so dope....slightly funny too!
Quick, simple, and fun build. Great tips as always and great rules for creativity. Thanks for sharing!
I needed Rule 8. I'm always in my own way trying to pick things apart before I've gotten to them.
Thanks for sharing
picture framing and philosophy lesson in one.
If you wanted the frame to be really heavy duty, for a mirror or something heavier like that, would you make any changes to how you reinforced it? More robust staples? Screws?
Great rules to live by and excellent video. Thank you
Great mix of helpful tips and entertainment! Thanks.
"So let's run them over the joiner"
*sighs, takes out his rubber sanding block*
But seriously, I needed this. It's gonna be a lot cheaper than Ross, Nextdoor, or Ebay. And much more satisfying.
