Norm Abraham was my guy. He's still my hero through nostalgia as watching his show was something I always did with my late father. Discovery shed I think it was over here in the 90's 00's. I got to say though I can't pick a winner between you both. And I hope you take that as a huge compliment. The reason I like your format so much is you don't feel the need to vocalise everything and you have an endearing dry sense of humour. Your attention to detail is remarkable and its all about the product unlike most TH-camrs with that inflated ego and shit music banging out in the background. Your a real down to earth guy. Don't ever change bro and I hope your channel explodes. Much respect from Salford 👍
THIS IS YORKSHIRE!!! LOL. Love your humor. Thanks for taking the time to record your work. You present it so well. I always learn something from watching you, and I've been a woodworker for quite a while. Please keep up the good work.
What a beautiful piece of work. Its nice to know there are still proper craftsmen out there doing things right. There is one thing missing from the video though - I would have loved to have seen the customers reaction when they saw it for the first time.
I am stunned by the beauty and the magnificent work that went into this build. This channel deals out more than just inspiration, it shouts out expertise. Super awesome bar and fantastic video mate 👍🏼🥂👍🏼
@@Thepourdeuxchanson - I concur. "Awesome" is a word I use often in my vocabulary because it denotes more than simply saying 'nice'. This gentleman's work really IS awesome!
@@csn6234 Take your bad vibe elsewhere. It's like you are picking a fight in a library. People watching this are sheltering from the meanness for a short while. Can it, that would be awesome.
inspiring. Wish I had half the tools he had... or at least a table saw - I don't have any. I want to build myself a bar much like that - steam punk themed.
After over a decade in my own home I'm finally getting around to fitting out my garage as a workshop. I know I can never have the big tools but I am obscenely jealous of that racking!
From something that was just sitting around almost destined for a fire, to something practical and a fine useful piece of furniture, is the work of a visionary as well as a true craftsman. Even the finishing touch of the logo was a testament to your eye for detail. Well done lad.
Hey man this was a very nice work. I am a 44 years old man that start now a course of carpentry. Always loved but raising a family took the time I need it, but now I am trying.... I hope I can do things as nice as this one. I am a Brazilian living in England. thanks and please keep it up with the nice work. have a nice day
When I saw you take out the torch and start burning the wood I thought nah, I'm not going to like the finish. I was so wrong! You nailed everything about that. It is a work of art. I will no longer doubt your choices lol. You have a new subscriber.
I learned much in watching the video AND reading the comments, which I read all of. Part of the learning is picking up on the things that I can easily apply; other is learning about tools and how to that I have never heard of before, which I might not ever use, though allows the possibility, by knowing of such. Initially reacting to the lettering layout comments, then to a category of "the right way to do things" -- Intentional "beauty spots" can be used to distract from someone looking too perfect (whatever that is) or to create something to converse about, whether to express a point of view, or express other information of various worth, and learn what a variety of both categories there is. I assume that your customer was totally thrilled with the product. Thanks for the pleasure, admiration and inspiration from this video.
So many talk their way through their projects. You did an absolutely beautiful job and only "commented" where needed! I'm sure you are kind of jealous of the new bar owner with such a nice bar!
First video of yours that I have watched. It is a joy watching you work. No annoying sped up footage, unnecessary crappy music, or endless talking. Just simple captions describing what's going on. Great job, instantly subscribed.
Sincerely, I love the work you do. Everything from your home, to the turntables to this and even your CNC. Amazing. Thank you for your quiet, peaceful way of presenting your work. Cheers.
Dear Sir, You turn what most folks would use as firewood into a most delightful project which I am sure will be the talking point whilst customers down their pints. Very well done. Kind regards.
Pallet wood is a fandamnedtastic resource often overlooked! It's much easier to get than reclaimed barn wood, and can be used in so many different ways! Glued together vertically or horizontally, making a thick slab or a nice, flat clean slate for your imagination. It can be cut into strips and turned into a chopping block, or a counter backsplash. It can be disassembled from the skid plates and both the thin and thick lumber reused. It can be 'de-nailed' & 'de-metaled,' and none or all of the marks left from that process can be filled in and hidden, depending on how distressed a look you want. It xan be shaped, made into thin, veneer-like slices that can be shaped beautifully (and then re-sandwiched back, for strength), in any curves you could dream of and make jigs for. It can then be stained, or just sealed, with beautiful results, or primed and painted. It can be distressed more, scarred, scuffed, burned, scraped, scratched, dented, and gouged, and give stunning results, before staining, or after painting to make it "antiqued" and reseal over those marks. It's a wonderful resource that I've made a whole lot out of, and will happily make a whole lot more out of, in the future! In fact, I'm considering doing my kitchen counters in a chopping block pattern (maybe distressed, maybe not) then pouring epoxy resin over it, and having something beautiful again, for decades. If you don't want pallet wood, fine - leaves more for us that do!
When you are testing it and from the camera's point of view, the bar on its surface has parts peeled off in the final finish. I'm a furniture polisher and that's because you used water-based products before using oil-based products and some don't hold up well with others. In my opinion, it would have been better finished with a good lacquer luster. Greetings from Montevideo, Uruguay (South America).
@hans hansen i mean hes 100% right.. i don't know about you, but i learned that water and oil doesn't mix in 2nd or 3rd grade. There is 2 PROPER ways to "mix" oil based and water based products and this guy did neither. One option is choose what finish you want first, then apply the finish let it COMPLETELY CURE! NOT JUST DRY! (drying takes a couple hours while curing can take multiple weeks) and once the first finish is completely cured, you then go on to add your 2nd Finish. The faster way to do it, is too add your first coat, let it DRY, then add a coat of de-waxed shellac on your piece before you switch to a finish with a different base. Now am i the KNOW-IT-ALL for understanding basic finishing techniques? no. Us people in the woodworking/furniture community just like to share knowledge on these subjects... Thats all
I think you guys all have the wrong end of the stick, maybe I didnt explain it well; I only used one finish on the top- "Rustins worktop oil" which the tin says is water based! i know i couldnt work that out either which is what i was referring to in the subtitles, it was horrible stuff and smells like fish! ill stick to oil based oil in the future.
Thank you by motion, introducing at least ten tools I have never seen, much less understood their functions. No babbling straight to the point, both interesting and teaching video's are very few.
At ~39:35 -- "It wouldn't be right to send it to the customer without testing it first". I heartily agree! You most certainly earned that beer after that stunning build!
I stumbled onto your site & boy am I glad. It is a joy to watch you 'working' but you seem to enjoy yourself so much. The skill, the care & knowledge of the wood you work with & the tools you use are amazing. I am an 81 year old retired Senior Master of Art in South Australia having majored in Sculpture (mainly wood), Design, Graphics & a few others. I am disabled & had to retire at the age of 47, way too young, because it was no longer possible for me to stay in front of a class & perform at the level I set for myself. Now I have to watch people like yourself & wood turners because doing so helps me relax & deal with the constant pain. I absolutely love your bar as I am sure your client did. Keep up the great work, Don from South Aust.
I do this all the time! i made a 10k bar. for my house for only 700 dollars ~ Its fun doing it YOURSLEF! Watching your own ideals come to life. Plus all the money you save, by doing it YOURSELF
I love your work; very inspirational for an amateur woodworker. Generally speaking I like woodworking videos where the craftsperson doesn't talk; some of those who do can get very wordy! However, I'd love to hear your voice some day. After all, we heard Norm Abram's voice for years!
I noticed you using some " old school " techniques. Your work has a lot of pride and heart in it. Back when. People used " bees wax " as their final coat. Water proof and looked better every time it was wiped down. Very proud of you 👍
CORONA?! I mean, topical, but surely a bottle of Theakston's Old Peculier would have been a more fitting test. At the very least, the colour of the beer would have complimented the bar...
Its Just beer. I mean no one cares about all the so called "magic" behind a lot of stuff. People theese days tend to believe that they know a lot about quality or "good taste " at certain topics but hey It Is Just a beer. If he likes that one whats wrong ?? Complinent to the top color? Really Its Just an unannimed object, some how the mankind has evolve to the point when we worry AND get mad at stupid things.
True craftsmanship. BTW I Live in Malibu, CA, but was raised in Darfield, I remember going home after a Barnsley football game and smelling the hops at the Oakwell Brewery. Classic memories.
I wait impatiently for all of your videos and this one didn’t disappoint me. I look at what you do and how well you do it and all I can hope for is that if there is a Heaven I can choose when I die that I can choose some version of your shop and an infinite amount of time to create the beauty that you do here on earth.
Yes since you rang, There is a Heaven and there is a Hell. The good news is no one has to ever go to hell, Jesus Christ is Lord the only one who offers salvation from Deaths mighty grip to all who ask he will not deny.
I can't remember when i enjoyed a video to watch so much in the last 10 years. He put so much love and passion in his work, truly a masterpiece. Lovely
Wow !! Thank you TH-cam for existing to be able to see and learn from other people. Magnificent work my friend...............There is no better way to finish a project than with a cold Corona beer. Greetings from Mexico✌🍺
That was awesome!! It amazes me when I see people like you with the imagination and talent to create such wonderful things with wood. Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing!!!!
instant subscription!... I though the finish would be rougher, and it was not rough at all, all plained and sanded, even the holes were plugged!... great work!!!
Cutting plugs: I've watched a boat builder bore the plugs, put masking tape over the plugs first, then cut them all out using a band saw. Then, all the plugs came out together face down on this sheet of tape and all grain oriented in the same direction for installation. Looked like a good idea that I will try next time.
yea I have seen this trick myself, crafty is crafty and anyone building boats learns some nice tricks, well anyone building anything learns some I guess.
A beautiful job Russ. A lot of love went into making the bar. I think you were having a joke with us at the end when you opened a Corona Beer to test it out. What better beer whilst we are all going through the coronavirus lock-downs around the world. Well done mate.
Give a man the right tools, then add talent and imagination and he can make anything . It would be an honor just to sweep his floors. I hopeI a young person sees this video and it changes his or hers life’s calling.
Extremely good build. Turned out great. Out of it all your stenciling amazing me the most. The overall signage looked great. I wasnt sure at all when you had just done the transfers. 10/10
Shame your not local, my parents Black Walnut tree blew over in a storm the trunk is stunning....over 11 ft long and 4ft across, would make some lovely furniture.
$2500 is a totally fair price. Might even be on the cheap side. I mean; besides the time you spent ...look at all the investments in tools you have made. Beautiful job.
So proud for have choosen that mexican beer. You have such a nice tools to make anything you wish. If you like looks like therapy watching you. All the best.
So cool, such a shame it's so late in life I've taken an interest in this stuff. There's so much stuff in this workshop that looks so much fun to use, but it's 1000's upon 1000's upon 1000's upon 10's of 1000's worth of tools/machines. Those G clamps alone would cost more than a month's worth of disposable income. Makes me wonder if there's such a thing as a public workshop, where you could pay to get in and use the tools. If not, now there's a business idea.
Public Workshops do exist! I mean you pay a fee to use them, but they are a thing at least in some areas. I recently found one that has a full woodshop as well as a garage with a full lift.
I know your pain man. I was spoiled when I had shop class in school. From 6th grade to 12th grade. But I did take complete advantage of my time there in high school. My teacher was cool as hell and let me build what ever I wanted as long as I got the requirements done. Not only did I finish all the requirements (way before anyone else did) I also built a pair of home speaker cabinets 32" H x 17" W x 14" D, not small by any means. Plus 1 band pass sub box for my car and 2 slant face sub boxes for my friend and a fellow student. Then I built 2 simple entertainment centers and a few ornate shelves. I racked up a $3K bill lol. I did spend all my study hall and lunch time down there and it's the only class I scored a A++ in. Now, today all I have is a cordless Dewalt drill and a tool box with basic mechanics tools in it. Also if I do want to build something, I have the big box store pre-cut and I just assemble simple things. Side Note: When in high school shop, not only did we do wood working but the teacher had us learn metal working as well like welding, turning on a lathe, casting aluminum and using a brake.
You do not need all those tools to acomplish very close results with a bit of planning and creativity... He took rustic pallet wood cleaned it up so it was perfect "new" wood then then torched it and stained it to make it rustic.. If you just used the pallet wood as is on a thin plywood backing they do not need to be perfectly square paint the plywood black and then any gaps just look like rustic shrinkage / warpage and with it being over black they are not noticeable. Plus you need less work making it look rustic. For the top buy some remnant oak tongue & groove flooring tons on Facebook marketplace or discount places may have some leftovers... Instead of the curve you do a 45 degree angle on the bar front but still do the curve on the top. You could build something very similar with just a sander, jig saw, skill saw and 4 clamps ( 2 c-clamps and 2 Bar). I built many things in my One bedroom condo last one was this cabinet with just basic hand tools: www.instructables.com/Covid-Cabinet-With-No-Workshop/
Almost all his fancy tools are about saving time because he's trying to make a living at this and time is money. Look up Paul Sellers who makes amazing stuff with only hand tools.
I know you don’t need me to tell you this but you are really talented. I used to always use pallet wood. It may be considered garbage but it really looks beautiful for the right jobs. A friend of mine was a farmer so I made her a small farmhouse jewelry box out of pallet wood, it really looked amazing with all of the typical farmhouse grain. I wire brushed it. Thanks for sharing.
Just amazing my friend. It's very satisfying to watch your videos and see your techniks. Thanks for sharing this wonderfull work with the world. This is a great class about how to do things and how to try new stuffs without being afraid. Really amazing. Congratulations.
Honestly, this is one of my favorite TH-cam projects I have ever seen, because it is so similar to projects I have build coming from the printing and wood working industry. Very cool, I identify myself with It... great job!
Fantastic. With the price of wood now these are great ideas you come up with. Thank you.I can not remember the last time I saw pallets with wood so thick.

I can't believe I just watched this whole thing... all 40m and 19s... and it's was GLORIOUS
same but it was interesting for sure. Impressive what you can make from recycled materials
Danggit...my video ended at 40 minutes EIGHTEEN seconds. Lucky man.
"You can never have too many clamps." "Hold my tea."
Is there anything more satisfying than having the right (i.e.: enough) tool(s) for the job?
i know i was like whats the whole deal with all those freaken sargentos (clamps) ?? LOl
Having the money to buy all the right tools is more satisfying. That's a quarter mil for that shop, easy

Good, that You and me didn't need to watch this 300 times to get the joke. 😉
For a 10-thumb amateur like me this was wonderful to watch. I maybe even learned a thing or two...
The shock you gave me after all the rustic and the logo and the amazing skill and craftsmanship, then BAM! A fekin CORONA?!! How could you lad?!
Glad I wasn’t the only one who had that very thought 😅😅😂🍻
Don't be an elitist prick
Proper Yorkshire humour that! 🤣

Exactly what I was thinking! 😂

Eee, that were grand. Lovely build. Nice to see the old brewery name too - I was born in Barnsley, back in't day.

Without doubt, this is one of the best pallet wood projects I've ever seen. I salute you. Thks

Timber has been a nightmare atm!
Agreed. Been getting tucked in!
Sad but true.
And probably more on hand than what is in stock at the yards. He's a rich man right now!
Love to have me some of that pallet wood. I wonder what his good wood looks like.
I’m of the mind that all bars need to have a footrest. Makes standing at the bar more comfortable. This build is fantastic even without a footrest.
yep. brass footrest is a must

That was awesome!! It amazes me when I see people like you with the imagination and talent to create such wonderful things with wood. Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing!!!!
I do the same type work for a living and have now for 26 yrs that's a nice shop and great work my friend
instant subscription!... I though the finish would be rougher, and it was not rough at all, all plained and sanded, even the holes were plugged!... great work!!!
Well done! Way more pretty than the 'inspiration' and certainly better built.
Прекрасная работа! Браво мастеру!
This was great to watch. I don't have the attention span to see a project like this through to the end. Thanks for sharing.
Started this thinking I’ll have a go myself…… Wow what skill and craftsmanship, another level !!
Brilliant end result, only I'd need to win the lotto to buy all those tools !
250k to make a 2.5k table
Cutting plugs: I've watched a boat builder bore the plugs, put masking tape over the plugs first, then cut them all out using a band saw. Then, all the plugs came out together face down on this sheet of tape and all grain oriented in the same direction for installation. Looked like a good idea that I will try next time.
yea I have seen this trick myself, crafty is crafty and anyone building boats learns some nice tricks, well anyone building anything learns some I guess.
UNBELIEVABLE!! envy your talent
A true artisan in wood. You pal OWN this!!!!!!!!!!
A beautiful job Russ. A lot of love went into making the bar. I think you were having a joke with us at the end when you opened a Corona Beer to test it out. What better beer whilst we are all going through the coronavirus lock-downs around the world. Well done mate.
The second most important meal of the day :)
Hell yeah!
Give a man the right tools, then add talent and imagination and he can make anything . It would be an honor just to sweep his floors. I hopeI a young person sees this video and it changes his or hers life’s calling.
Extremely good build. Turned out great. Out of it all your stenciling amazing me the most. The overall signage looked great. I wasnt sure at all when you had just done the transfers.
10/10
Shame your not local, my parents Black Walnut tree blew over in a storm the trunk is stunning....over 11 ft long and 4ft across, would make some lovely furniture.
$2500 is a totally fair price. Might even be on the cheap side. I mean; besides the time you spent ...look at all the investments in tools you have made. Beautiful job.
iv watch this about 3 times now. fantastic bit of craftsmanship.
Relaxing to watch you work
I bet this dude would accept payment in clamps. Carpenters always seem to have a million of them.
Fantastic, until the end when he opens a Corona. Surely he could have chosen a real beer! :)
So proud for have choosen that mexican beer.
You have such a nice tools to make anything you wish. If you like looks like therapy watching you.
All the best.
Just like a master chef who can turn ordinary ingredients into something extraordinary!
"Cooking a 5 star meal from McDonalds Scraps" would be his fucking title
Класс! Это шедевр. Каждую заготовку отшлифовал, отфрезировал. Это изделие заслуживает уважения. Мастеру респект и уважение.
Corona "beers" shouldn't be allowed to touch this type of bar...
Anyways. Very nice job !
sees bar made, nods approvingly, observes it being used for lager......recoils in horror...
Lager is one thing, Corona is about as nasty as they come.
Awesome. Best bit was the chuckle brothers reference! 👍
I don’t think I blinked for this whole video. Amazing work mate
So cool, such a shame it's so late in life I've taken an interest in this stuff. There's so much stuff in this workshop that looks so much fun to use, but it's 1000's upon 1000's upon 1000's upon 10's of 1000's worth of tools/machines. Those G clamps alone would cost more than a month's worth of disposable income. Makes me wonder if there's such a thing as a public workshop, where you could pay to get in and use the tools. If not, now there's a business idea.
Public Workshops do exist! I mean you pay a fee to use them, but they are a thing at least in some areas. I recently found one that has a full woodshop as well as a garage with a full lift.
I know your pain man. I was spoiled when I had shop class in school. From 6th grade to 12th grade. But I did take complete advantage of my time there in high school. My teacher was cool as hell and let me build what ever I wanted as long as I got the requirements done. Not only did I finish all the requirements (way before anyone else did) I also built a pair of home speaker cabinets 32" H x 17" W x 14" D, not small by any means. Plus 1 band pass sub box for my car and 2 slant face sub boxes for my friend and a fellow student. Then I built 2 simple entertainment centers and a few ornate shelves. I racked up a $3K bill lol. I did spend all my study hall and lunch time down there and it's the only class I scored a A++ in. Now, today all I have is a cordless Dewalt drill and a tool box with basic mechanics tools in it. Also if I do want to build something, I have the big box store pre-cut and I just assemble simple things.
Side Note: When in high school shop, not only did we do wood working but the teacher had us learn metal working as well like welding, turning on a lathe, casting aluminum and using a brake.
You do not need all those tools to acomplish very close results with a bit of planning and creativity... He took rustic pallet wood cleaned it up so it was perfect "new" wood then then torched it and stained it to make it rustic.. If you just used the pallet wood as is on a thin plywood backing they do not need to be perfectly square paint the plywood black and then any gaps just look like rustic shrinkage / warpage and with it being over black they are not noticeable. Plus you need less work making it look rustic. For the top buy some remnant oak tongue & groove flooring tons on Facebook marketplace or discount places may have some leftovers... Instead of the curve you do a 45 degree angle on the bar front but still do the curve on the top. You could build something very similar with just a sander, jig saw, skill saw and 4 clamps ( 2 c-clamps and 2 Bar). I built many things in my One bedroom condo last one was this cabinet with just basic hand tools: www.instructables.com/Covid-Cabinet-With-No-Workshop/
(I just looked at his other products and yes those are a lot fancier and need more tools)
Almost all his fancy tools are about saving time because he's trying to make a living at this and time is money. Look up Paul Sellers who makes amazing stuff with only hand tools.
Perfect Result, Perfect job!!!
I like how you burnt the edges to give it that antique look. The stain made it pop! Fantastic work as always
288 dislikes? 288 people upset they don't have that many clamps. Kudos to you sir, craftsmanship at its finest.
You Sir are a great craftsman, and I love your sense of humor.
Even the wood dust getting used brilliant what an absolute joy to watch
Wow great job. This is a Master Piece that your client will love for many many years. This deserves a subscription.
I know you don’t need me to tell you this but you are really talented. I used to always use pallet wood. It may be considered garbage but it really looks beautiful for the right jobs. A friend of mine was a farmer so I made her a small farmhouse jewelry box out of pallet wood, it really looked amazing with all of the typical farmhouse grain. I wire brushed it. Thanks for sharing.
Simply outstanding brother!
Just amazing my friend. It's very satisfying to watch your videos and see your techniks. Thanks for sharing this wonderfull work with the world. This is a great class about how to do things and how to try new stuffs without being afraid. Really amazing. Congratulations.
Perfect work! Perfect video!
This is incredible to watch. I consider myself a jack of all trades and I've learned many new tricks. I wish I had all the equipment he has.
My guy you look like you have a lot of pride in your work. I fully enjoyed watching this video. Big up yourself
that is some beautiful woodworking. Makes me miss my Dad and I's workshop we had
Beautiful project,with pallet wood no less.I enjoyed it to the last.❤
Thank's for bring us this pearl, man! You're amazing!!!!!
Honestly, this is one of my favorite TH-cam projects I have ever seen, because it is so similar to projects I have build coming from the printing and wood working industry. Very cool, I identify myself with It... great job!
Fantastic. With the price of wood now these are great ideas you come up with. Thank you.I can not remember the last time I saw pallets with wood so thick.
