@@FixitFingers 😆 it's awesome 😍

Do you know, they actually pushed back on my first couple ideas with the desk, as I wasn't going far enough with destroying their product in their eyes 😆 Quite refreshing to have a sponsor like that for once!

@@woodfather That sounds pretty awesome!

Thanks Andrew, I really quite like this one, using it right now even! 👍

Thanks PJ. No, the roll top is still definitely going to happen. The office has two desks, this one, and then the old tabletop I hastily installed when I built the room with is on the opposite wall. That tabletop is a junk magnet, and will be removed so that the rolltop desk can live there in future. The rolltop is going to be specific for another hobby of mine, so I'm taking my time and constantly tweaking the design to cater to my needs there. One of those, "I'm scared to start" builds, in case I do a disastrous job 😆

@@woodfather Good. I'm hoping to build one myself, so I'll be watching with keen interest.

In a right pickle, but also, right in the pickle! 😆 I made sure the power was out before climbing up there lol. The standing function is great, changes the whole day when you can spend a couple hours standing and stretching. 👍

@@johnhunter1262 Cheers for that John, great to hear from you again! 👍

Oh man that's a brilliant idea, I'll go buy it now 😆

He would have turned it on 😉

Just my regular. first friday of the month, manscaping session mate 😆

ahahaha, that was my favourite line 😆

Spot on Alex, I'm a big fan of both, though now you've made me realise that I've misplaced my Unicorn Project book! It should be on the same shelf, what have I done!? 😆

Luckily I now have a space to sit and read that book! 😉

"We're staying home tonight babe, Mario's got the moccasins out on youtube!"

Oooh, i've been eyeing off a couple under desk treadmills in the last week to be honest, I think that's definitely going to happen, though maybe without the monster television to undo all my massive space saving gains :D

I even cleaned them up before shooting the video, you wouldn't have liked the layout earlier! 😆

Thanks Manny, I'm a week in and loving it. I do need a mat to stand on though, the hard wood floor isn't very soft :D

ahaha, maybe I'll get myself a hot water bottle to sit on next time!

It's all tucked away now big fella, only one cord hangs down and that delivers power to the desk and all the equipment on top. I try to keep my desk 'cleanish', I don't always succeed, but I try at least. 😆 Also, GO BLUES! 👍

Thanks Tom, I'm loving it! It's making a real difference to how I work from home which is really cool, plus getting the books out of view has been great!

So glad to hear it Christopher, and the photo you sent through looked amazing, came out beautiful, well done!

It's been so much fun Vipun, that's the main reason I've kept going with the process, I just keep enjoying the new space and want to spend more and more time out there 👍

oh my god Matthew, thankyou, I've just rewatched this video and I've mispoke! 🫨 If the joint is too tight, your key is too wide; And if your joint is too loose, your key is too thin. I can't believe I've never noticed that before, I must have watched this 100 times when editing and seemingly missed it each time. 🤦‍♂ I've checked the plans and the build video, and they're all good, but yep, I've said the wrong thing here, you're correct, other way round!

@@woodfather Thanks for the quick reply. I just purchased the plans off your site. Do you have a straight pdf instead of that other file type? If you don't no problem. Love your videos and the great humor!!

@@matthewn2559 the purchase is a zip file, and inside that you get a PDF and then a couple SketchUp models. You don't need the models though, that's just a bonus for people who want to visualise changes before cutting wood.

@@matthewn2559 and thanks! 🙏

@@woodfather Got the pdf figured!!

It's all smoke and mirrors for youtube, nothing professional here KJ 😁

@@woodfather Well, your smoke and mirrors are obviously working! 😎

Many thanks! Let me know how you get along! 👍

hah, cheers but you'll have to go to the new owners house to see that 😆🎠

Thanks Ross, it's made a crazy difference to be honest, still surprises me how different I feel when I get out there. 👍

Cheers Mark, a little bit of a different style in this video, some parts I like, some I'll tweak in future videos & builds, but always good fun to get back into it 🙂

All you need is a load of free wood to fill it up then!

@@woodfather Oh I already have that. That's the problem.... 🤨

@@PrestosTimberFurnitureAU ahahaha, well, it's a good problem to have at least 🙂

🙂Thank you so much! I was a little concerned before I started that the bottles would be too ornate or stylish to go into a box and might look out of place, but I think in the end the box and bottle complimented each other really nicely. 👍

Don, great to hear from you again, how's things? Cheers for the kind words, very much appreciated. And yep, the little pony came out really nicely this time around. The only slight concern I have is that being that this one was made from a hardwood, it's quite heavy compared to the others that I've made. Not a huge issue as you don't normally pick these up and go for a walk, but I did give the new owners a long chat around making sure they're watching the little ones as they play, would hate for a small hand to be stepped on by this pony!

I'm incredibly lucky to have so much space, I know. Originally when we bought 20 years ago we were going to put a car in here, but after one night of "open gates, move car, close gates, open garage door, move car, close garage door", my wife and I gave up and decided to to use this space for storage only. 😆 I've always had to share it with non workshop things, so yep, all the bikes, scooters, mini electric ride on cars, lawnmowers, etc, it's only since this renovation that I've finally taken the whole thing over for myself. I'll cross my my fingers for you that one day in the future you get the same luck! 🤞

@@benjaqsonworkshop9974 thanks Ben, it's great to be back, two videos today and another in a few days I think! 🙂 a lot of the motivation has come directly from the rearranging, I literally smile when I walk in the shop these days!

@@woodfather That's great to hear and the whisky boxes look special and speak of the generosity of woodworkers.

Story makes the project Anth, and your story is super interesting. My story is all about how cheap I am. 😆 Although to be fair, my story is also super accurate to me and my life 😆

That's the way I'm looking at it Robin 😆 It may not be gorgeous, but it does its job, and like a birdy, it was cheep cheep!

It just builds up so fast doesn't it? I've spent the last two days making a top for a desk (future video alert), and man, both nights I've had to spend around an hour to ensure that everything is cleaned up and good to go the next morning. I need to learn to put things away as I go I think. Best of luck with your upcoming projects 👍

I might have broken the thumbsup inadvertantly! After uploading, I realised the audio wasn't too flash, so I took the video down and intended on uploading a new version. Turns out I can't fix it sadly so I just opened this one up again. (I used a new tool in my edit software to enhance the audio, it kinda worked, kinda didn't, but at the same time, it won't let me remove the enhancement, it keeps erroring out.) Next video won't have this issue!

Hi Henk, cheers for that. I used a new feature in the editing tool for audio, and kinda wish I didn't now. I've had a play around, it sounds to me like the problem is in the first minute, after that it's a little echoey but at least not bad. Well, to me anyway 😆 I'll have it fixed for the next video, promise you that!

Toit!

Hah, cheers Duncan, hope it works for you!

Oh wow, this is an older video so glad to see it's still doing the rounds 😄 fwiw I did this to multiple toys over the years and never had an issue, so fingers crossed for you 🤞👍

That's interesting if true. I've used the Makita trim router before and it felt a lot more powerful to me, but I've never used them side by side for a comparison. Having said that, I've also never a concern around the power level of the ozito, it's always smoothly cut whatever I've wanted it to. 👍

@@woodfather yeah I mean I’m I the Uk the internals could maybe be slightly or less powerful I’m not 100% but got both the makita and Einhell and they look exactly the same everything come in the box is exactly the same except the depth adjustment and the colour of plastic but in Europe they’ve got some tools that will compare on stats to the best of the big brands some that are still budget like you say
