We have been considering putting out some more in-depth content through either a TH-cam membership page or Patreon page. Let us know your thoughts in the comments if this would be something of interest to you. Not sure how or if it could work but we thought we could include more details on specific parts of the build/finishing process. We have some amazing pieces on the schedule for the future that range from traditional to more modern styles. Coming soon is a Custom Entertainment Credenza made of Highly Figured Claro Walnut, two Newport Block Front Chests, a Mahogany pedestal table with extensions, tiger maple double chests etc. Along with some videos that need to be edited. We appreciate your comments either way. Thanks for watching and Merry Christmas
I'd be interested in seeing more detailed videos
i've always loved your work, count me in for a more in depth channel
I would love to hear you talk and explain some of the techniques. Im willing to pay, but it depends on the cost. What kind of dollar amount do you have in mind?
Same on the detailed videos. The end result is one thing. The road there is even better!
I'm in, definitely. Do not hesitate to long , please.
Would gladly pay $50/yr for more videos, and tips on sharpening, planing curly woods like this, chair making, useful jigs, you name it. Amazing that FWW, PWW, or the other mags haven't already sought you out...
Yay a christmas present from the masters of woodworking!
I don’t have any patreon memberships but when it comes to you two, I will gladly make an exception. Please let us know when you work things out. This was a bonus to my retiring on Christmas Eve. Thank you
Awesome Thanks! Congrats on retiring!
Your hand work never ceases to amaze me. I hope one day I could plane figured wood with that kind of skill without tearing it all to shreds. Amazing and mesmerizing. Loved seeing the draw-knife as well.
So glad to see y'all back on TH-cam. Always a pleasure to see what y'all are making. Yes, would love to see more in depth videos. Thanks for sharing!!
Stunning piece!
That edge detail....superb! 👍👍👍
I am glad you started posting again. Thank you. Happy Hoidays and a great New Year.
Mind-bogglingly beautiful boards. Wonderful work.
I've been a long-time subscriber. I'll try and answer your question the best I can. First, I believe you are the finest woodworker /craftsman on TH-cam. You, Matt, are on a way different level than the rest. You said more in-depth, paid content, would that include dialog, speaking to the camera or just music? I can learn a lot by watching and I have but I could learn infinitely more by listening and watching. I am fortunate enough to have a great resource here in Cleveland, a craftsman by the name of David Boeff. He speaks highly of you and your work. Anything you put out would diffidently help keep the fine woodworking craft alive. I understand you are a busy man with your business, but the only other thing I would like to see is answers to questions. I have asked many questions with no answers. I get it. I own a business also. But if you're not going to answer them, then maybe turn off the comments. I hope you see this comment as constructive. I mean nothing else.
Thanks Patrick. I asked the question and I appreciate that you gave an honest answer. First, I am humbled by your remarks, as there are many amazing craftsman on TH-cam. For my thoughts about offering more in-depth material, I would only do something more if it would be mutually beneficial to everyone who chose to be involved. Can I add value to those interested? I would do more than what my videos are now. If I choose to take the next step I would be open to different ideas and see where that leads. I never took the next step with content creation before because I did not think I could do both things and do them well. Furniture Making as a Business and the Content side of things.
@@Doucetteandwolfefurniture First, Thanks for answering my question. As far as how much more you are willing to go is a road you will have to go down. Your YT account has 43K subs, that's substantial. The interest is there. I see you at a crossroads. More interactive content, maybe teaching a class locally or at a guest shop( Marc Adams, Lonnie Bird, Krenov School, College of the Redwoods, North BennetStreet School),. Maybe just something more simple, sharpening a handplane blade, and tuning it up. Every woodworker thinks he can sharpen and tune his tools, but I'll be the first to admit you do an amazing job. Your handplane's sing. Then there is a slippery slope on how one goes about quoting a job... a very common question. Maybe a simple video walkthrough of your shop. How and why the tools are laid out. One of the coolest videos I saw of yours is how you stacked dresser boards 6,8, high and systematically chopped dovetails, one hammer blow at a time.
That is a very nice piece of maple!! Bird's eye is very nice as well. Love all the hand work your doing. Better than machines on that type of figure!?? Great vid. Thanks for sharing,!!!
So glad to see you back. Your videos are great and craftsmanship is unmatched! Kudos and merry Christmas!
Beautiful table. The Curly/tiger maple is unreal. I love what you did with the live edge, looks
amazing.
I would be very interested to have videos that revealed more of the woodworking process in greater detail.
What a wonderful Christmas present. Your videos were the first I really watched on TH-cam. Well the first that got me addicted to woodworking videos anyway. Outstanding to see new content and I will follow you no matter how you decide to move forward. Thanks for making my day! Now back to the garage for some more final hand planing which I do now because of your influence. Thank you so much. Happy New Year!
Really impressive project. I am always amazed at you skill and craftmanship, great tiger maple too! Awesome to see a new video... hopefully more to come.
Thanks for watching! We plan to make more in the near future.
Merry Merry Christmas and thanks for this upload.
I recently started rewatching your videos, and here is a new one!! Thank you, and Merry Christmas!
Fantastic work!!! as always!!! That would be great to see your work in-depth! Please do it!
merry Christmas
Your band saw and your tools very sharpenner👍👍👍👍👍
Very good job and Merry Christmas👍👍👍
Congratulations from Brazil
Just love seeing all those Lie Nielsen planes in masterful action
I would never be able to put anything down on that pristine top. It is way too stunning to cover even an inch of it.
What a great Christmas gift
A new video. Great job
Sehr schön gemacht
👍👍🍁
You guys get a new shop? This made my Christmas eve that much better ! Happy holidays to you and yours!!! And needless to say- BEAUTIFUL WORK!!
Thanks Joe! Yes, it is a new shop. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Beautiful curl and a nice job with it. "60 hours of handwork in order to make the edge 'natural'." Curious as to why you didn't just bandsaw off the bark and sapwood if you were planning on doing that much alteration to the live edge? Also, I assume that sandpaper never touched that surface? Amazing job of planing what can be some very ornery wood for tearout!
@Kill Bill2021 Given that you only need to trim the outer edge, then flip the piece over and trim the OTHER outer edge? Yes, I do. I have a 24" bandsaw with a removable extension table for just such types of projects, and I've done exactly what I asked about with 50" wide slabs. I'm pretty sure that they have a 36" (or maybe 42"?) bandsaw in THEIR shop, so they MIGHT even be able to do that kind of cut to the INSIDE of the throat!
Great craftmanship My dude
Beautiful! I like how the tiger "stripes" follow through the live edge. Is it just my eyes, or did you carve some relief into the edge that follows the tiger grain, giving it even more expression?
Thanks so much for the free content. Enjoy it immensely.
Thanks for watching. The undulations on the edge are a natural part of this wood. I used carving tools to remove the outer bark and cambium layer to expose the figured edge.
Great to have you back. Where have you been?
Great to see you! Merry Christmas! Have to go watch now:-0)
Feliz navidad
I'm not sure which fad I'm more ready to die out, the whole live-edge thing or the epoxy river tables.
I like live edge. Epoxy resin thing not so much
Thanks for posting again. Can you show us a video on your finishing process?
Nossa saudades dos seus videos ,você sumiu tá tudo bem??mudaram de local de trabalho ? tá muito diferente dos videos tempos passado.
Um grande abraço de um fã do Brasil .
Captivating
Четыре года прошло - как стол? Повело наверное?)
After long time
Beautiful table SIR!!!! I was a bit concerned about the flowing top you were wearing fluttering over that aircraft carrier of a surface planer tho :/
Why would you not secure these two slabs together by using biscuits?
Great Job ! :-) but put your t-shirt into trousers when leaning over jointer....
Beautiful work ☺️👍.
Where is the nice music from Trace Bundy? 🤔
Greetings
O trabalho manual é mais valorizado
24" jointer? is that the aircraft carrier everyone is talking about?
Beautiful but I thought the point of a live edge was to keep the bark?
OMG how wide is that Jointer?
Ryker777 wide enough to land aircraft
i thought combi machines were a recent innovation apparently not..
So did you get to skip cardio that week
It almost looks like sand dunes!
what frog angle do you use in your lie nielsen smoothing plane? beautiful table by the way!
For me 50* works best for an all around plane on a 4 1/2. 55* can have better results on really difficult woods.
Beautiful too. Needs a proper base
👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Is this the same shop?
💖💯😎👍⭐🎄
New shop, is it?
Merry Christmas. What make/model is that jointer planer?
Thanks! It is a Keolle HK63. I did make an older video of it you can find on our channel.
just use a belt sander...
why u needed to re-flatten after using a mechanical planer
figured maple especially likes to warp a LOT after machining.
@@JgHaverty and to create undulations in the top, as opposed to dead flat
planers leave marks. the hand plane removes the knife marks from the mechanical planer. you can not get a finish ready surface out of a mechanical planer.
Excellent craftspersonship, but a little less planing porn and a bit more on details like the bow ties etc would be a better balance. A separate video devoted to planing would be good, other craftspeople do that for sanding rather than subjecting viewer to many minutes of the particular activity every time.
