This might be my favorite video of yours so far. The audio breaks made me hold my breath for the glue-ups, which is extremely relatable. I also "collect potential" and quickly gain and lose interest in projects. Thanks for taking the risks to make the videos you want to make.
IKEA has a few gems of beautiful design scattered throughout the store, good eye for spotting those and using them 90 degrees from the way they were intended.
This may be your most documentary style video ever and I'm totally here for it. 98% story, 2% how-to. Love it! The struggle with the clamp, I felt that on a personal level. Thanks for sharing!
I absolutely love what you’re doing. I, myself, have very little creativity inside me at 41. Or maybe I do and just too afraid. This wasn’t the case when I was younger. I know it’s not just me but humans seem to have the perverse inclination to give up on dreams and or let fear stop us. I have tons of potential in my shop and am fighting to get excited again but these videos definitely help
It's always cool to see how the style of your videos changes whenever I rediscover your channel every few years all the way back from your drunken woodworker days. It's like I'm getting a glimpse into the different seasons of your life and it always feels a bit like catching up with an old friend you knew in high school. I hope Weenz is still doing well and that you and your wife still make your yearly rings. Keep growing and pushing forward! See you again in a few years
I opened TH-cam and seen half the thumb nail and thought that looks like a Picciuto piece. Scroll down and it obviously was. Good job I love these simple drawers made into furniture projects.
This video was on point. I really liked the music at the start and end. I need to make something similar but have been intimidated by the steps - this video helped show how basic it is by just adding together simple processes. Thank you for the video.
This exactly how my brain works with projects! Refreshing to hear someone else has this potential problem of not hoarder but creative genius. Of course his means I have to actual do something...
the last time I wore gloves while using a powered cutting tool was when I was cutting aluminum. I was using a 14inch radial arm saw. The chips were hot and sharp.
Good evening I just wont to say thank you for you Jimmy and bob have done you don't no it but you saved me from a dark place I have Court Up with all on youtube and have just found your podcast I am on episode 20 When I get to the latest one I will say hello , and thank you again For all you do in the community.
I love the Harbor Freight F clamps. It really says something that you, with your Saw-Stop and big-@$$ Jointer and friggin drum sander, still rely on the HF clamps. Solid product is a solid product. [edit: I definitely own at least 30 of them of various sizes, lol]
Just another amazing video Dave I love the new video style. I get so much inspiration from watching you channel. Thanks for sharing and that sucks about the TV it’s crazy how fast the little pieces of water traveling better off the TV than you.
I have been looking for an idea for ALL of my wife’s face cleaners and lotions, you get the idea. Lol. This is great. I am like you, as I collect cameras also. But currently it is only cameras that I have used throughout my life time, and I am 65 so I have a lot of old cameras. Would love to chat with you about this sometime. Great job as always David, and I also have been in contact with Toledo Plywood since I will be making my wife her dream kitchen next summer and need about 25 sheets of plywood for the boxes alone.
I've been watching a bunch of manufacturing videos from Korea and Japan. Almost always, these professionals - at all levels (small mom and pop through to major manufacturer) - are wearing gloves. Lathe, table saw, grinder, polishing wheel, you name it. I was surprised at first, but you're reasoning to wear gloves is probably the same reason they do. You do you.
I used to love picking out things at Goodwill to incorporate into my woodworking - wonder where I got that idea - thank you, David. Never got around to using much of it, but made me smile after I lost my wood shop knowing that my ex-wife had to deal with getting rid of it.
Hi, it seems like we have quite a few things in common. I also collect film cameras, books and instruments (I also play e-bass) and I love woodworking 😅 🤩 Greetings from Germany 😊
For the shot where you used gloves, I'd personally have used a push paddle (I have the "GRR-RIP Block"). I've only had a table saw for about a year, and I still feel like "atavistic terror" is the appropriate response, so I use push sticks, blocks, or paddles for any cut that will put my hands within 4-6 inches of the blade. Your reasoning about splinters also seems reasonable, though-especially for that first big cut, I might consider a glove on my left hand and a paddle in my right. That said... can we talk about the moment at 11:26 where you use your gloved hand to push a piece *behind* the blade? That one gave me a pucker. (Thinking about it, I realize the riving knife makes this safer than it looks, but the camera angle makes it look pretty bad.)
Maybe put a sheet of acrylic over the front of the TVs? Not sure what kind of glare that might cause but it could potentially save you a few hundred bucks and some ass-pain next time you get a kickback arrow shooting off your saw.
Ikea has value-engineered the crap out of the furniture so that the "classic" Ikea hacking of furniture doesn't even make any sense anymore since you'd be cutting cardboard. *BUT* the homeware is still quite good, and just building your own furniture around it like you did is actually awesome!
"A collector of potential".. I've never heard that idea and it completely describes my collecting habbits, now I know how to describe my tendency to buy tools for "when I need them".
A few months ago. I was cutting some small oak limbs ,to make some coasters .I was using my miter saw and I guess it came of the fence . And then boom! A piece kicked back hitting me in face and leaving me with a nice black eye. Luckily I was wearing eye protection or it could have been much worse ! I should have known better and just used a hand saw . But that's what I get for being in a rush lol
Wear disposable gloves, latex/nitrile. I recommend latex because the stretchiness allows me to reuse them more easily. They protect from the minor stuff and rip away when caught
If you are going to use gloves, I recommend you use mechanic's gloves. They are a much tighter fit than the gloves you wore in the video, have good finger touch, and will provide splinter protection. Only time I wear gloves around rotating tools is when I am using a grinder with grinding wheels or cut off blades. Since those tools have "smooth" cutting surfaces, they don't grab the glove.
I have a small knot colletion too, i have a vision of a cabinet with loads of diferent sized drawers each front will showcase a weird knot ive collected.
I was once cutting strips for a cutting board. I think I made a rookie mistake (long time ago) and was just not pushing straight. An approx. 1" square foot long piece of maple came screaming back at me and hit me in the belt buckle. Talk about lucky. Barely felt it. I stand to the side now too.
I do that too, I’ll know I’m going to build something but I cant force myself to be ready to start it and if I do it rarely works out whereas if I give myself time then, when I am ready or not procrastinating anymore it works out really well. Is that add?
Would the Sawstop still react fast enough if you wear gloves? It might pull the fabric in and not stop instantly doing more damage than if it reacted instantaneously on the touch of skin with barehands. I might just prefer a splinter in that case.
Love your videos David with or without your brother behind the camera HOWEVER I just can’t stop looking at your beard are we headed toward St Nick? what’s the end game here? #mesmerized
I have only had one piece of wood kick back, and, when it did, it shot like a bullet into the grill of my wife's car with no damage. Positioning your body makes a big difference for your own safety. Since then, I am more aware of what is placed in the kick-back zone.
I am someone who also struggles with focus when something else get creatively exciting. What do you when that spark hits and you are already in the middle of another project? This happens to me all the time and I typically push myself through, but there is a noticeable slowdown once my brain would rather be designing something else.
Unfortunately I don't have any good advice for you. Because this is what I do for a living I force myself to finish what I'm working on before moving onto the next exciting thing.

The clamp struggle is the most real thing a woodworker has ever put in a video
I REALLY felt this
As I was watching I was literally thinking 'the struggle is real', and what comes popping up 2 seconds later?? 😂
"Collecting potential". I will remember this when my wife again has a comment to my hoarding of semi-ready renovation projects.
Same
This might be my favorite video of yours so far. The audio breaks made me hold my breath for the glue-ups, which is extremely relatable. I also "collect potential" and quickly gain and lose interest in projects. Thanks for taking the risks to make the videos you want to make.
IKEA has a few gems of beautiful design scattered throughout the store, good eye for spotting those and using them 90 degrees from the way they were intended.
I'm pretty sure he's using them in the intended direction. They were stacked sideways at the store.
This may be your most documentary style video ever and I'm totally here for it. 98% story, 2% how-to. Love it! The struggle with the clamp, I felt that on a personal level. Thanks for sharing!
Loved the small breaks of reality with the glue ups, very nice to ground the quick cuts with reality.
I absolutely love what you’re doing. I, myself, have very little creativity inside me at 41. Or maybe I do and just too afraid. This wasn’t the case when I was younger. I know it’s not just me but humans seem to have the perverse inclination to give up on dreams and or let fear stop us.

A new horror film: A Cabinet In The Woods.
Love the quiet humor with the clamps in this one. The struggle IS real! Looking awesome, keep it up!
Potentiallist not a horder. Got it, Thanks! 👊

I love the clamp clip. The music stops and all attention goes to the clamp screw. We've all been there at one time or another.
You are more and more becomming the woodworking filosopher. Love the calmniness (is that a word?) and the fun in the videos!
I've been on that same struggle street you were on at about 6m15sec so many times! I had a great laugh. Thanks Dave.
Can we all have a moment of silence for Picciuto Shop Screen #3. Though short, it was a good and well lived life. 🙏
This exactly how my brain works with projects! Refreshing to hear someone else has this potential problem of not hoarder but creative genius. Of course his means I have to actual do something...
the last time I wore gloves while using a powered cutting tool was when I was cutting aluminum. I was using a 14inch radial arm saw. The chips were hot and sharp.
I'm a big fan of the music to awkward silence transitions. I use em from time to time in my videos and they make me smile every time. :)

I know that feeling! I've always said I "collect capability". Tools, materials, plans...
I LOVE the editing of this video, I think you're really narrowing in on your new video style. 👌
I love that you're in toledo!! Not many on the 'tube from the 419 like us!!
Great information, especially letting us know how to get away with getting something "for future potential"
I love the Harbor Freight F clamps. It really says something that you, with your Saw-Stop and big-@$$ Jointer and friggin drum sander, still rely on the HF clamps. Solid product is a solid product. [edit: I definitely own at least 30 of them of various sizes, lol]
Best deal on clamps ever. I swear by them.
Just another amazing video Dave I love the new video style. I get so much inspiration from watching you channel. Thanks for sharing and that sucks about the TV it’s crazy how fast the little pieces of water traveling better off the TV than you.
Just helped me reshape my hoarding tendencies. Thanks, Dave.
Love your work David, may you long continue to inspire the making community 🔥👏
So good, love the slow build intro.
I have been looking for an idea for ALL of my wife’s face cleaners and lotions, you get the idea. Lol. This is great. I am like you, as I collect cameras also.

i really like the collecting potential mantra, gonna hold on to that one for sure

That impact shatter pattern is really cool. You should make an art piece designed around that.

Two videos in the same week?? You rascal. Love it.
Ordered from woodworkers guild, thanks for the deal!
Beautiful design. Well done!
Maybe put a sheet of acrylic over the front of the TVs? Not sure what kind of glare that might cause but it could potentially save you a few hundred bucks and some ass-pain next time you get a kickback arrow shooting off your saw.
Or perhaps use the other side of the rip fence to make that cut! IMHO
Love the intro and artistic concept. Great work David. Bummer for the 📺 . Live and learn is all we can do. You finish looks great!
Man I just love your style
Ikea has value-engineered the crap out of the furniture so that the "classic" Ikea hacking of furniture doesn't even make any sense anymore since you'd be cutting cardboard. *BUT* the homeware is still quite good, and just building your own furniture around it like you did is actually awesome!
Great build David! Love how you deliver potential to useful!
"A collector of potential".. I've never heard that idea and it completely describes my collecting habbits, now I know how to describe my tendency to buy tools for "when I need them".
Hey! Neat TWO ejections in one video!
Love your work. You give me so much insporation and motivation to finish projects.
i felt "collecting potential" in my soul
Nice work on that cabinet David! I need to make a few cabinets for book storage so I am going to use your idea. 👍👍
Wonderful shelf, Dave! Truly amazing work!!! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
"Than that stupid router to make the shelfs" 😂😂😂 i feel you on that brother lol
A few months ago. I was cutting some small oak limbs ,to make some coasters .I was using my miter saw and I guess it came of the fence . And then boom! A piece kicked back hitting me in face and leaving me with a nice black eye. Luckily I was wearing eye protection or it could have been much worse ! I should have known better and just used a hand saw . But that's what I get for being in a rush lol
Look at me, I am a collector!!
Best video so far in the new style dude. Really related to the story telling 🤙
I have the same thing! I also collect potential and sometimes I loose excitement in a project forever.
Yeah gonna need a poster design around this collecting potential idea. If you could get on that 😊
12:41 An edible Fusion file for patrons, huh? I gotta get on that Patreon
😂
That's a nice looking project! And something I could actually use. Great job.
Wear disposable gloves, latex/nitrile. I recommend latex because the stretchiness allows me to reuse them more easily. They protect from the minor stuff and rip away when caught
That's a great tip. Thanks!
When you replace the TV, maybe put a sheet of plexi in front of all of them
Great and inspirational as always
You really don’t need the filler music. The sounds made working is good enough.
Thanks! I make all the music in my videos!
Cool project and I love your approach. At 12:16, however, you are standing directly in line with another missile!
Inspired by your creativity!
Thanks for another great video
If you are going to use gloves, I recommend you use mechanic's gloves. They are a much tighter fit than the gloves you wore in the video, have good finger touch, and will provide splinter protection.

I have a small knot colletion too, i have a vision of a cabinet with loads of diferent sized drawers each front will showcase a weird knot ive collected.
Looks great!
i do more of the Collecting then the potentialing hahahahaha What a GREAT project!!!
I love the way you described your collecting philosophy/addiction/practice. Maybe we share some DNA.
The last track sounds like something Kraftwerk used to make. And what a craft you work. See what I did there? 😊
Not to mention the craftiness you can work with that big muff sound that potentially popped in the screen.
I was once cutting strips for a cutting board. I think I made a rookie mistake (long time ago) and was just not pushing straight. An approx. 1" square foot long piece of maple came screaming back at me and hit me in the belt buckle. Talk about lucky. Barely felt it. I stand to the side now too.
@6:10 I said that in my head, and then the text slowly appeared. lmao
Might want to buy an extra TV or two, or perhaps move them from behind the TS. :D
I do that too, I’ll know I’m going to build something but I cant force myself to be ready to start it and if I do it rarely works out whereas if I give myself time then, when I am ready or not procrastinating anymore it works out really well. Is that add?
Would the Sawstop still react fast enough if you wear gloves? It might pull the fabric in and not stop instantly doing more damage than if it reacted instantaneously on the touch of skin with barehands. I might just prefer a splinter in that case.
Can relate to the heavy breathing and complete focus during the glue up
1:45 Funny how you have the Festool logo covered.
I felt that clamp struggle
I always think, "Next time I'll make sure the clamps are ready first." And that never seems to happen 😂
@@drumunl Haha sure I always end up dropping one anyway, or realising I meant to get more out and now the glue is setting
That tape dispenser made me laugh at how ridiculous it was. Until I realized how much time it would actually save. Now I need one.
You need one.
I wear latex gloves (the medical type) dealing with plywood or splintery woods, they are tight but tear easily
Love your videos David with or without your brother behind the camera HOWEVER I just can’t stop looking at your beard are we headed toward St Nick? what’s the end game here? #mesmerized
Great all are beautiful excellent congratulations 🎉🎉🎉
Great editing!
Excellent, as usual. 👍
I've collected so much potential. Now I just need to figure out how to convert that to actually finishing a project...
As long as your safety gloves don't lose tactile information or loss of grip, they're not dangerous.
I have only had one piece of wood kick back, and, when it did, it shot like a bullet into the grill of my wife's car with no damage. Positioning your body makes a big difference for your own safety. Since then, I am more aware of what is placed in the kick-back zone.
Just put one of those Bob Ross “No mistakes only happy accidents” stickers over the broken spot on the TV
1:37 ADHD! At least that's why my excitement comes and goes.
I said the same thing lol. My house is full of "potential" projects
is that an original tube screamer? looks well loved
It's a 90s version I believe.
the collecting potential muse is not easily stirred
Unless you can’t stand it from a visual perspective, the broken TV tells a really cool story
I am someone who also struggles with focus when something else get creatively exciting. What do you when that spark hits and you are already in the middle of another project? This happens to me all the time and I typically push myself through, but there is a noticeable slowdown once my brain would rather be designing something else.
Unfortunately I don't have any good advice for you. Because this is what I do for a living I force myself to finish what I'm working on before moving onto the next exciting thing.
If it was the Columbus Ikea and I saw you I would have freaked out! Haha! Do you glue your backs in or just hold them with the brad nails?
❤️ Just Brad nails
Good job!
Gloves for large sheets of plywood are more tolerable because your hands are typically far away from the blade, compared to small boards.
@makesomething. I’ve been watching your videos for the better part of forever. I gotta say I love the evolution of your style into the current format.
thank you!
I do the same thing Dave. I strike when the excitement appears, while piling up potential. How do you like the Lewitt Mic?
The Lewitt Ray is great. So much so that I'm selling my SM7.
Love it
