It's insane that this video popped up. I was literally making a decorative box minutes before, and came to the realization that using my 45° bit on my router table could be the solution! Then I saw your video. But I'm pushing it at 5/8 in. material. What size is the bit you were using, and did you have 3/4 in. boards there?
"the ability to disassociate from ego long enough for empathy to create an artistic expression to be enjoyed by all..." But isn't it the ego that walked empathy into that opportunity in the first place? And with frequency, empathy shapes the ego like the sand on a beach. Desire itself has plasticity, p
The ending with the magazines almost made me spit out my coffee! Apparently you are my spirit animal in that particular respect!. SO glad I am not alone.
Man, this reminds me of a 9th grade wood shop project, 60 years ago. I was making a book shelf. when completed, teacher said it was worthy of an upcoming contest. Unfortunately I didn't measure the height of paperback books. They did not fit. The teacher recommended that I should not enter the competition. Oh well! BTW I feel it was a grave mistake on the education system to remove shop classes from schools.
First off, your music choice is top-fucking-notch, mon ami. Second, your little philosophical diatribes and conversational perambulations around life, craft, emotion, dendrology, art, and our relationship with art, etc... are a solid third of what makes your videos so great, followed by your actual woodworking and a list of items from there. Keep doing you, brother. It's always a treat.
Dude. Thank you. I definitely put forth the effort to make these for people like you. I’m pleased that it lands in front of those who appreciate the work and will remember this as the ignored negativity inevitably filters to the top of my inbox. Much love for the kind words.
When you got to the end of the build and the magazines didn't fit... I felt that... in my soul. Such a core experience in our collective journey. Love your work!
I always look forward to your videos! The dialogue is great, and your sense of humor makes it fun, so keep it up (especially the sarcasm)! I also like your editing. Even the way you integrated the sponsorship into the video was creative and kept me from skipping past that part. Thank you!
Dude, you are one of one. Your creativity comes through so clearly in your writing/speaking and it’s truly impressive. I feel like the wood working is a bonus with the story being the main point of your content
Just wanted to say how much I enjoy your videos and the furniture you make. I'm not a woodworker but enjoy watching you make amazing things. Great work all around.
Hey Nick Being a one handed woodworker 7:58 made me hold my breath, THEN YOU DID IT AGAIN and my heart stopped for a tic. Regained my composure and totally enjoyed the video, as usual. Great project and video. Regards James One Handed Maker - Australia
Beautiful workmanship! Excellent presentation. Good cinematography. No one who claims to be a master is a master. That word needs to be applied by others and never by an individual toward himself or herself. I am 71. I learned some things from you. You also have excellent instructive skills.
Greetings from NE Portland. Excellent work as always! The music, philosophy and voiceover are the cherry on top of much loved attention to detail, jealousy-inducing creativity, and fine craftsmanship.
Hi Nick - I always learned it as the 7 P's - Prior Proper Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance! This was from my Navy enlisted Dad. And as far as the narration and music - I love it. DON'T CHANGE!!!
6 Ps Proper preparation prevents piss poor performance. Learned that one in 89 when I was learning the trades. The guy who told me the 6 P’s was my mentor for doing things the best I can. Love the channel, hope you are able to make more vids.
The FIRST woodworking project I ever made was a bookcase for my National Geographic subscription. I precisely made the shelves to the exact height of the magazines (precision!!) and as soon as it was done I realized that they needed... at least 1/16", but probably 1/2" more space to actually FIT on the shelves. My woodworking has been a lifetime of those lessons.
Over the decades, I've learned a valuable lesson when it comes to this issue. Whatever your design plans end up being, add six inches to everything. It does get a little expensive
I'm planning to build a not-a-box myself (but a picture frame with sides and top/bottom) and wanted to miter every joint for continuous grain like you did here. I've been running through how to do all this on a Table saw or my Radial arm saw, and just haven't been happy with how it plays out in my head. It never occurred to me to use the router, and I think this will make things much, much easier. Thanks for the inspiration!
I did something similar. My mom needed a simple box to hold seed packets and I needed to divide it into two sections for the small packs and big packs. I wanted to practice hand cut dovetails and did that. Decided to mortise and tenon the divider in. I cut the mortise on the wrong side of the line so the big packets no longer fit and now they fit in diagonally just like your magazines 😂
Awesome trophy case!! Great Video brother. The people that push themselves to attempt to be the master in their craft are the only people worth watching. They also have to be humble and smart.
Nick. I really don't care if it ruffles feathers and others have a distaste for your psychedelic scores, but you have the best background beats of the youtube woodworkers. Thanks for not peppering every video with the same terrible free electric guitar that soooo many use. Keep up the fantastic work.
This is great to read. I thought maybe I was missing something and everyone just wanted to hear budget rock with their TH-cam. @taymania92 it’s all licensed from artlist.io
Damn, Nick, you do great work. Another beautiful piece. And man, I appreciate your audio and sarcasm each and every video. Please don't change what you're doing! Love the channel, the work and all that goes into it.
I don’t know who you are reading or if/where you studied, but your art and design criticism and sensibilities are on par with your craftsmanship and artistic rigor. Truly inspiring. Rare to experience true artistic sense, awareness of empathy, and meaning in one truly skilled person. Please don’t stop doing what you do and communicating what matters to you. Encounters with human beings like you are what inspires humanity to elevate, edify, and carry on.
Very enjoyable video including the philosophication. Especially the spur of the moment trimming your magazines, . However, having done this mass trimming of paper myself a few times, you could've placed piece of wood atop the stack of mags, clamped tightly, and the trimmed edges of the paper would've been perfect.
It’s crazy how many TH-cam woodworkers had router table accidents this week. I saw your kickback and 4eyes had a nasty router accident. And I think there was one more I saw. Be safe out there with your routers everyone
Interesting. I have commented on several YT people's lack of router respect- usually a few times a week. Sorry to hear the odds are catching up with them. Old enough (40+ in this industry) to remember a router being just in the very large shops- a luxury. I have more work holders on my router gear than all other tools combined. Although my biggest shaper does has a toilet paper roll on the side. Pushing the ON button does make people tend to crap themselves. Stay safe- trust nothing.
For the record, I actually like your music scores. If I had a complaint about your videos, it would be that you don’t make enough of them. But I know you have a life and other responsibilities, so thank you for the videos you do put out and for us elevate our work
I've found that my 'subbed/bell' list in YT only tends to retain those who understand the algorithm, adhere to length guidelines, etc etc, and then give all of that a casual middle finger and do what is necessary to convey the story. You're one of those, and don't change. I feel I speak of all of us in woodworking when I say that the non-fitting magazines and saw solution got a laugh, but then a moment of "ahhh, yes, I remember that with such affection," feelings. Just about wasted a mouthful of coffee on that, dude. Last - I'll second the shout out to Mrs. Sawyer for what she does... I'm a former Army guy trained to hand out 'Go To Hell, Literally' cards to our enemies without raising my heart rate, but her job... I.Could.Not.Do.That. Respect.
I had seen using the router for miters before, but that was with a fence and having to try and dial in the height perfectly, your method with the board on top riding on the bearing seems WAY more attainable / straightforward.
For whatever reason, very early on, my brain was 100% certain that this was a cat bed. Even up to the point you were cutting magazines on the miter saw to make them fit, I was thinking "alright that's funny, but it's kind of a weird shape, so when do we find out if his cat likes it?" This entire video was the mental equivalent of taking a sip of coke, not realizing you actually picked up a glass of orange juice. That router table miter technique is freaking brilliant. I'm not sure that it will scale well to a lot of the weird things I build, but I'm definitely keeping this one in my back pocket!
This was great!!! Loved the video and outcome. Reminds me of…me! And yes, I would’ve done the same thing in the end to make it work. Ty for being real❤
Instead of cutting the magazines to fit, did you consider making a horizontal cut thru the box, then adding a decorative, contrasting strip that adds the necessary height? Doing it at the apex of the cutout would simplify the trimming necessary to keep the cutout’s lines looking good.
Another entertaining video, and yes... you got me. Props to your wife as well. I work at Randall's and see how crazy things can get in the PICU. Much respect to both of you.
Oh no kidding?! That’s wild. Guess you guys are part of the same now that OHSU acquired legacy. Will be interesting to see how that plays out for the employees
Nick, don't change who you are or how you make your videos because of a few people complaining. I subbed long ago because of your personality and quality, unique designs. Also because Cam sent us here lol.
I have loved every video. Unfortunately, I'm afraid I'm in the same boat as Wayne and Garth; I'm not worthy. Thank you for sharing your work, thoughts, and insights with the rest of us wood butchers,
In my opinion that final coat of finish made the wood shrink or possibly the magazines are to long. They need them to fit our magazine holders. Your music choice is outstanding! You just got a follow!
Sweet video sir. For those perfect mitres why don’t you take off the bulk of the material with the table saw and then creep up with the router bit? Might be a bit quicker but with the same end result
Oh we've all made a box too small by atleast the slightest amount if not an inch. Lol Love the tip on using the 45 chamfer for mitres....and let's not forget the glory hole! 😂😂
I’ll totally be stealing your line for a tshirt for the hubs. “Hoarding is acceptable so long as the trash is fancy” is genius. I’ll have to define fancy for him, however. 😂
Cool way to make the magazines fit in the box. Nice little "lol" for that bit of humor. Was the box too short due to not planning? Or was it planned to demonstrate the 10% short of 100%? Nice as the box turned out I'm thinking planned. The title and picture for the video made me think the box was some sort of jig to save some time cutting boards for something else.
Awesome video. But to clarify the French "Mise En Place" it is a cooking term that means you prepare all your ingredients to be ready ahead of time. for example you already have the herbs and seasonings measured and in little bowls to be ready to throw into the recipe when its ready etc. It's the preparation before cooking. To fit this into the context of woodworking - maybe it could look like setting out all your layout tools and hand tools before cutting dovetails (as an example)
So.... I appreciate the talking , actually enjoyed it. The magazine holder looks awesome but I don't understand why you made an interior for it. Can someone tell me what's the purpose for the extra wood inside.
I love that the entire philosophical rant was about attention to detail but the final reveal showed the oversight of what is most likely the most important detail. lol. Note for future me, magazines are not all the same size….. measure all of them I intend to put in whatever I’m building. 😂😂
Great video and ending! I might have missed it in the video but what was the point of the liner? I assume you did that for the bottom to have something to rest against.
Its actually the 7 Ps not 5 "Proper Planning and Preparation Prevents Piss Poor Performance" compliments of the British Army. Beautiful work as always, sir, and thank you for the consistent light hearted dry humor.
Wonder if they make sharp wheel chop saw blade? But any print shop worth its craft has a paper cutter that will guillotine through stacks of paper in one stroke.
Those miters are tight! Kudo's for not throwing things across the shop when you realized the box was just a hair too short. People wonder how woodworking can lead to day drinking, this is how.
Kudos to your wife! My daughter in law works in the NICU also. It is a special person to take care of the most vulnerable among us. Can you tell me the white glue you used on this project and why? More open time than yellow glue or better performance? Thank you for your response.
That’s awesome. NICU/PICU are a special breed for sure. I just used Titebond 1 on this. For miters, it’s a bit more viscous and less prone to soaking into the end grain as much which can starve the join of glue.
Thanks for taking the time to watch! Appreciate you all ✌️
~Nick
Just keep building and making whatever you like man. We'll keep watching. Love the videos.

Should you plane end grain? I would think it would cause chipout

Clever solution but the magazines should have been clamped between two boards to prevent that tearout that happened...

10/10 sketchiest tool in the shop. Table saw has a bad rap because everyone has one. Routers are the real finger getter.

Cutting the magazines was a true woodworking miracle 🤣 Great channel mate !
Exactly, it's not hoarding. It's future projects :). Also, using the miter saw to cut the magazines was amazing and hilarious
@@Zeldur I thought the band saw would have cut cleaner 🤷♂️

Nice method of using you router to do the miter. Having just built my router table, I'm gung-ho to try that myself.
I had seen using the router for miters before, but that was with a fence and having to try and dial in the height perfectly, your method with the board on top riding on the bearing seems WAY more attainable / straightforward.
Awesome Nick! 6P's 'Prior Planning Prevents P*** Poor Performance' Keep the dialog, that's half the entertainment.
Great video Nick glad to see you back making stuff
Nice work! I am going to try your mitre joint technique (using router) now. Also, I like your use of the chop saw to fix magazine size.
Beautiful as always! Congrats on the spot in Fine Woodworking hoss!!

You just keep doing you man!! Love your stuff ❤️ ❤
Very good video. I like your use of router for miter cut.
Aa always really enjoy the videos and you attention to always creating beautiful pieces.
I literally giggled when I seen the magazines not fit. I did that about 6 months ago myself. That was pretty great.
And now you are an editor for "Fine Woodworking" magazine!
Great job! I like when you talk about what you are doing are not! You are obviously very intelligent, and I like to hear what you have to say.
I wasn't gonna subscribe but the last three minutes forced me too! Thanks for your channel, and insight! Oh yeah your woodworking too!
love your videos, your talking, the music... and your face when the books didn't fit :D
Instead of cutting the magazines to fit, did you consider making a horizontal cut thru the box, then adding a decorative, contrasting strip that adds the necessary height? Doing it at the apex of the cutout would simplify the trimming necessary to keep the cutout’s lines looking good.
What page number was the important information about measuring before cutting....now that youv3 cut off page nimbers 😊😊
I always have a plan, but enjoy the rescue. Nice video relaxing.
Love the philosophy. Keep doing you!
Great hack at the end! I might steal that idea if my cat's litter box is too short
I have never laughed until I cried watching a woodworking video before. I will always remember my first time.

fantastic video, good details about routing miters. do you mind to share the soundtrack sources?
the ending hilarious. Good job
Oh we've all made a box too small by atleast the slightest amount if not an inch. Lol
Love the tip on using the 45 chamfer for mitres....and let's not forget the glory hole! 😂😂
I snorted when he said glory hole. Lol

Hahaha post rationalization in its prime. Just tell him to throw a pinky up. If it feels right, keep it.
Cool way to make the magazines fit in the box. Nice little "lol" for that bit of humor. Was the box too short due to not planning? Or was it planned to demonstrate the 10% short of 100%?

That’s awesome. NICU/PICU are a special breed for sure. I just used Titebond 1 on this. For miters, it’s a bit more viscous and less prone to soaking into the end grain as much which can starve the join of glue.
Great Vid!
did anyone else cringe at the glue cleanup with the chisel!?
whew as soon as you changed to the hand plane
good music too :)
