I really like the design Bob! Good job man!
Thanks man!
I Like To Make Stuff can u make rocks with holes for candle or something like that?
Great idea Bob. I have an Apple Watch and I was going to make a stand, but I like yours. I have to alter your design so I can charge my iPad instead of my phone.
If you had painted it glossy white, it would have been an original Apple product ;)
Simple shapes, clean, cool design !
I was a little worried how it was going to turn out after seeing some of the "guts," but it looks great! I like how you don't really pay attention to parts that will not be seen. I need to learn to do that more.
I think I like this project and will likely make a variation of it for myself. Thanks for the inspiration!
Very cool! It's amazing how a little lacquer can make it so beautiful.
nice one Mr Clagett, loved the podcast this week
I love the design Bob! Really awesome!
Thanks Doug!
Awesome project!!
Some LED strip would be super awesome (but if that will sit at your bed side table, you probably would not want that).
Great stuff as usual!!!
OMG, I would really like to have all these machines in my house
Making this kind of projects must be awesome
Amazing design! If I were you I would add some felt at the bottom so it wouldn’t scratch your desk. Otherwise, great job!
haha, as you were using that big chisel, I was thinking "he's going with the grain, that's going to split".... and then you split it ;)
:) Yeah, I was just trying to break top surface but got a little too excited I guess :)
It looks so professional! Great job!
Thank you!!
good charger bob
if you could splice the wires together somehow, you would only have to cut a single channel and it would look more professional. I know the purpose of two is so that you can change them out if/when needed, thats just my opinion though
Hi Bob, you've mentioned cables could be removed if you change your mind; I wonder how can you separate them from hot glue without damaging, do they come off easily or there's something to keep in mind? Thanks!
I would like see you make a snare drum 🥁!
This video makes me want to buy a smartwatch so that I can make a dock!
man, that's pretty nifty
Well done!
Great job. Love your work.
Thanks!
Very cool idea !
Thanks!
You should make a 3D print of Master Chief's helmet from Halo
Really cool I like the idea
make a review on the watch
I made one long ago with my dad and all I do was pick a small block and cut it 2 times (am Dutch my English sucks)
Awesome
I wish you would make more furniture
Furniture takes up space, so I only make it when I have a need for it. :)
this is interesting
looks mint mass produce ahhahha
Love this project!
I love everything you make! Its all simple, easy enough to attempt, and AMAZING!
Thank you!!
Symantha Hennlein try to make this then
Ojus Singhal
I don't have an iwatch.. But I reference his videos for a lot of my carpentry projects. He's awesome!
Damn it Bob, stop making such amazing videos, I can't keep liking vids before I watch them.
Hahah, sorry? ;) Thanks!
Your projects are always so easy to follow and I love how you include any mistakes, makes us lot feel better if it happens to us too! Simple yet so effective!!
Thanks! I hope everyone realizes that stuff like that happens to all of us!
I enjoyed watching it. I really enjoy the iPhone. :D
Nice project Bob, looks great.
One cheat for fixing splits etc etc is right after you add glue to repair it, hit it with a random orbital sander and the sawdust that isn't pulled in with dust collection will actually add the wood color to the glue, so it will blend in nicely.
Good stuff, keep on keeping on.
Good call!
How many tries to get the watch to hit just right in the intro? 😉
At least 10 ;)
you should of made the phone charger slot wireless, it is possible to charge your phone wirellesly with sometype of coil below.
rapolas st why don't you do that?
i have a youtube channel relietuvis, but it is about lego
I was thinking the same thing lmao
Don't let Apple see this idea. They will find a way to overcharge for it. Nice quick and easy project Bob.
Hahah, too true :) Thanks!
You should really charge Apple for this video. They're gonna make a few mill off this when they release their $500 dual charge stand that'll basically be this heh
Rowdy Penguin yeah sell it to them before they catch it im serious .. its only fair u get the cash for the craft .
Rowdy Penguin Ikr
Or u could say that it had been copyrighted and fine them
Awesome build, Bob. Simple and super effective, and I love that the cables are removable.
Thanks man! I'm getting a lot of use out of the lathe after all ;)
omfg believe it or not, i was thinking about too for my moto 360 + Sony... maybe extra usb port too (for gopro etc)
and again, you made it so good! good job Bob!!
holy **** i got so many likes.
I always love how you incorporate wood but also electronics in your projects!
Thanks!
I like it! Great design choice with that taper
Thanks man!

Could you make a DIY flexible tripods for a camera?
Great video as always Bob!
Hey, where do you buy large walnut blocks? I’m struggling to find any
not first!!!!!
Bob, your projects are so fun. Inspires me to keep working at my channel. Thanks for the great ideas.
Awesome to hear! Thanks, keep it up!
Perfect! I'm doing this. I have a Samsung with Gear watch. Thanks Bob for the great idea.
I don't even have an Apple Watch, I just like to watch you make stuff.
I dig it! Easy build, looks good, and gets the job done. What's not to like!?
Thanks Matt!
nice job man and yes that's the famous diresta icepick cheers
Great design, it looks really slick!
I was in and out of this stream a good bit, great to see how great it turned out!
kyjeepguy couldn't agree more
I need to make one of these for my nightstand, been putting off too long. Nice build man!
I love this! If only I wore a watch. Might make it anyways and just put something decorative in the front instead. Thanks for another great tutorial!
Very nice. I need to make one, my cable keeps falling behind the dresser. lol
Which wood did you use?
that is very cool! It's a great idea and not only looks great, it saves space and time! #High5
#high5 back atcha! Thanks!
I wanna make this so bad but I don't have a lathe
going to steal this idea for a Mothers Day gift.
Go for it!!
Awesome project, Bob. Be careful, the lathe is addicting! If you're anything like me, you'll always be thinking how you can incorporate it into your projects.
Hey Bob! great video! I make a phone dock that I sell on etsy and I've found the easiest way to carve out the notch for the wire is with a dremel and the round carving bit and a straight edge and a few passes is the perfect size for these wires. The chiseling worked out great, just an extra option. Keep up the great work!
Stylish, Bob! :D
You could even add a raised bit at the back if you have one of them "qui" wireless chargers in the cellphone :)
Love this man, Ive been pricing out prefabbed Amazon stuff and Id rather take the time to make one. Love the video and your approach. Awesome finished product! ALso the hot glue was sweet..never thought of that
No case on your phone...how do you sleep at night?!?! 😳 kidding of course...nice project.
Can you teach how to make homemade bar clamps? The tutorials that I found isn't very helpful!
DAMN IT! looks like I'm going back to the wood supply store for some more turning blanks. I've been looking for a nice holder, and since I just got my wood lathe, perfect!
Hi Bob! Have you thought about doing more of you Maker 101 videos? I've learned a lot from watching your channel and am excited to see some more of those! Thank you for everything you do with your channel!
P.s- have you ever thought about doing a Star Wars headboard ? I'm thinking about building one for my son.
It looks really nice
Crazy! I just built one a couple weeks ago. Yours came out great. I love the circular design.
Subbed to this channel when I came across it randomly late one night a few months ago and proceeded to forget about it, boy am I glad I found it again now! I havent done anything woodwork related in about 5/6 years but I've got the itch to get back into it now! Time to get me some tools, Keep up the good work man!
Awesome!
Dude Can U Build A Table Tennis Set Like For Example
1) Table Tennis Net
2) Table Tennis Table
3) Table Tennis Bat
Thanks For Reading :)
Nice simple design Bob! I like how the top piece is tapered and off center a bit from the bottom. - Jim
I like it a lot, maybe a good project for the future, but right now, need to finish my King size bed (with storage)
So Bob, maybe a challenge maybe a dud...ha....would you think there would be a work around for phones with cases the cover the charging port? Maybe an orientation difference or something else....again or maybe it won't work. Any thoughts? I have a otter box commuter case on my iPhone. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Great looking project. It would be cool if you added like a felt lining or something soft so that the phone and watch doesn't scratch. 👍🏻
Nice you are using the Metric System :-) Kind regards from Germany
Very nice! I would love to do something like this with my fitbit.. not sure how I would mount the charging cable for that though. Good job with that thought it looks great!
Great build! So.. I can make one for my Samsung S7 and Samsung gear S3 right? Also, if I wanted to have an extra support on the back of the phone, should I glue a piece of wood or cut it out right from the beginning?
I love the design of this. I have tried making one out of cardboard but it did not work very good l.
Giving the phone no back support seems risky considering the lightning port is the only port and there's no wireless charging.
Apple does this in an even more extreme way with the docks they sell. The port is small and sturdy enough that the cable connection would break way before the phone was damaged in any way.
First time on this channel. I don't press Like on many videos, but this was worthy of my click.
I am really looking forward to seeing more use with the lathe! I've never actually used one but I just find it really satisfying!
I really like this! Keep up the good work👍🏻
Thank you!!
i have galaxy A3 6 and gear S2
Hi bob, I used to have an USB stick that I could open (it was very cheap). And I didn't like the design because it was too wide to fit other USB's next to it. So I opened it and made an wooden "case" for it (or whatever it is called). And a cap. I challenge you to do it as well. I only used a small hand saw and a small chisel but you have more tools so it probably will be better quality. I learned how to use a chisel better and it was fun, so if you try it I hope you have just as much fun as I did.
Ps English is my second language so I hope I explained it well
Damn I was just looking for a dock myself, haha. What might make it better for your phone is a little magnetic connection, I bought one from aliexpress, there is a male that goes into your phone and sits flush on the bottom, and then the connector has a female you plug your cable into, then they join together to make a circuit. I like it because it keeps your power port closed off and free of dust. I'd like a dock with a passive speaker so I can play music or have my alarm made louder if charging my phone, and for me, I also would like a dock to charge my gen2 iPad, but ideally I'd like it all wired so I can just plug in maybe a USB mini or micro and charge all 3 at once, but that's in a 'one day' pile. I think I'll end up buying a few cheap ones and modding them until I decide exactly what I want, but cool to watch your idea on it, we must be pretty alike as I want/need/make a lot of your projects!
Hey Bob, I really enjoyed this video. While that is usually the case with all your videos, I especially liked seeing today's video with cool technology like the Apple Watch being mixed with a custom wooden charging stand.
Very cool project! Love the look of this!
Thanks Peter!
So. Still using the charger? Did the cables fail from the bend over time?? I just got a watch and am considering doing a similar idea. Maybe add a wallet catch too.
Thanks Bob!
Really like the design. I'm thinking about doing something similar, but they have magnetic USB cables. Little thing plugs into your phone and when it get close to the charging cable they magnetically attach. Have you seen them? If so what are your thoughts on them?
What size Forster but did you use for the Apple Watch charger? Was it 1 1/4”? I’m needing to make something like this and need to buy the bit first.
Gonna be honest. I watch all your videos, but I almost didn't watch this video because of so much apple product. however I do like the concept, looks great Bob!
More lathe projects! Awesome! It turned out really nice
I'm going to make this myself I've been wanting to make a doc for my Apple Watch and phone. I could buy one but I love to make stuff myself.
Sad thing is that docking phone scratches the bottom of the phone badly, because we don't do it every time taking care that it's going in connector and not sideways.
This way you can't get your cables back to normal but if I were to make this, I'd make sure only one wire would come out at the end.
This is perfect, I can't stand the apple watch charger by itself it always falls off
I like the creativity of this design but I really think you botched it too much when making this tool, a bit more careful planning would make a much better job. It's totally fine if you make one for yourself like that but as a video tutorial, that's not what I'd expect
Hi Bob you should really sell one of these for the people like me that doesn't have the equipment to make on because ill buy one if you put one up for sale
Great project, I think few people might be put off by thinking you need a lathe but an old round baton/strut off a stair banister would work really well I'd say.
