[@VACatholic]

Good on you for ripping it out and putting it back to show how much you've learned and how much faster you've gotten! Respect!

[@andrhamm]

Turned out way better the second time with Festool tools 😂

[@jennifurzoe1302]

Dude's always been topnotch,just getting better as hands on will do that

[@christophercasey8833]

Funniest comment lol. I think this went over a lot of peoples heads hahaha

[@catphonics]

😂😂😂😂

[@wilahinely]

If I had built something that nice, I’d have a hard time getting anything else done due to spending all my time looking at that beautiful creation. Anyone that builds something they are proud of knows they go out of their way to admire it.

[@dustinthewind814]

I admit

[@moneymakingmikeg.9555]

This is the 3rd. time I've watched this clip now. I think going forward I'm going to drop a comment every time I decide to pop back in & watch this GREATNESS take shape!! Blessings, Dirty Jersey out!!

[@hansangb]

You've come a LONG way Richard! Congrats on your success and finding your passion.

[@Jacob_Dwyer]

It is literally 16 work days and so satisfying to see all of your hard work and skill paid off. Especially in your own home!

[@kevinlucas8437]

Beautiful workmanship !! Every time you look at it, you'll be so proud of the accomplishment !!!👏 👏

[@Greg_Gatsby]

I watched every episode of this mantle build and I still find it amazing. 👍

[@toddy_d]

probably one of the best YT series ive seen in awhile

[@wayneyeo186]

Exquisite work, thank you for recording and sharing !

[@jeffwells8646]

I also watched all the episodes leading to this masterpiece of finished carpentry. I particularly loved the flash of the Parthenon at the end-nice touch.

[@texascraftsman7215]

Custom millwork is so much more fulfilling than just being a trim carpenter

[@espltdrcart]

Agreed!

[@benhennekam5345]

Absolutely beautiful work, brother. Big shout out from Australia

[@daviddiehl8523]

I'm glad to find your channel bro. You're crushing it on these videos!! Thank you for making my life a bit easier!🍻

[@PabloEskimofo]

Those shadow lines you created are out of this world. Work of art man, I hope you are proud of yourself!

[@christianvachon2235]

Wow! What EPIC craftsmanship and artistry! Bravo!!! Cheers!

[@CARyan08]

Remarkable design and work effort. You are elevating the trade one job at a time. Give this man an award.

[@jimfeaster4837]

A piece of art! A true craftsman....😊

[@migdi242424]

Why did you stop recording the progress? Love watching all the details.

[@theunambiguous]

We have nothing like this in the UK, it’s all preformed moulded shite that people want out of the tin, absolute credit you do beautiful work.

[@Jacob-sn4hk]

Saw some triglyphs in the Kentucky House of Representatives Chamber during my swearing in earlier this year, immediately thought of your mantle, especially the part right behind the judge's seat

[@dh6140]

The shadows are superb

[@rowlandprinsloo7287]

Could not have chosen a better song, great work - top class

[@powderdescent]

Any progress on the window installs? Curious to see how all the elements of your living room finally tie together. Keep up the great work.

[@shakeeshakee9457]

Your a true artist and so skilled in your craft awesome job

[@JoshDub78]

Some of my favorite parts are the final coat of paint or finish…caulking, filling, spraying. What do you use for caulking? Just latex? Or something else?

[@choimdachoim9491]

Who is compiling and editing your videos now? Well done and I know it takes lots of time. It was nice reliving this build.

[@moiphy.]

this turned out absolutely beautifully. well done my dude 💪 💪

[@dredhead117]

damn that's beautiful. Good work Wish some of the architects on the projects I work on asked for this kinda stuff. All I do is basic square stock one by. I make it look nice but its repetitive and pretty basic looking. Would love a challenge like this

[@freddyleon1331]

Beautiful work!

[@duartepaintinghandymanservices]

I'll give you props bro as much patience you have to do carpentry you have that much more to make this editings.

[@sbdude9]

Beautiful work!!!

[@espnmk]

It looks as good as the real thing. Thanks for Sharing!

[@gregoryc5989]

Magazine quality... Great work.

[@jefferyholland]

A masterpiece you get to look at every day.

[@kookiethebear]

I'm more of a Craftsman vs Colonial lover. Since it's your house, I guess you can keep it. Great craftsmanship...as usual.

[@Conanbroman]

A monument to taking pride in ones work.

[@donwilliams3626]

I think every craftsman should take a minute to watch this mantle masterpiece.

[@calvinloi8413]

Wow. That’s a mantle. Curious how much did that cost.

[@Porkwhitemeat]

just material cost he built it himself

[@secretweaponevan]

Did you design that yourself? That is gorgeous!

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

Thanks! Yes, of course I stole ideas from the Greeks and classical architecture but ultimately yes I dreamt it up.

[@larrybuckner8619]

Wow! That’s some damn good work.

[@Mike-dy8bq]

Way to set the new record. I knew it could be done faster than those 1/2 hour DIY shows. Now my wife wants to know why it takes me forever to get something done.

[@markpalmer5311]

The Parthenon! Next project…

[@mplussant]

…next:…’Texas Versailles’…

[@josephdarosa4122]

Beautiful job.

[@vmoutsop]

So this is an easy weekend project? 😂😂😂

[@FB-111A]

Love your work

[@krisboucher37]

Looks awsome great work

[@radadbuilds]

looks amazing bro!

[@davec7299]

Truly stunning

[@dennisholton9640]

Fun to watch all the details.i hope you get moire cleints 😀

[@devinteske]

You’re living the dream! But you are not complete. To truly finish this masterpiece, you now need to make it a place of gathering for young and old alike. Thus, the young will think fondly of this place in their later years and seek to preserve it. It is in this way that your effort, your forethought, and your desire to give to future generations will last. Endurance is not just a testament to the quality of materials and attention to detail, no matter how daunting, but in the stories we tell one another over time in beautiful places. Just be mindful, that now that you have become the master of great works, it is now forever upon you to act in a manner within those spaces and in the presence of those works as to exalt them in celebration. I know you are religious, and so I do not mean solely in service of others on this Earth, but in celebration of the greater. I love your work.

[@RoscoPColtrane17]

That ending was badass.

[@markfialkowski4388]

Beautiful work

[@robertlaird6746]

I could have built that in one long day. You've managed to stretch this build out for like three months.

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

😂

[@dublinf4477]

Lauhable

[@HeyMichaelLeo]

Stunning

[@mplussant]

…my output rate is one minute’s work in 128 hours…

[@BigJohnson1566]

Slick work, now onto the rest of the house 😂

[@BHandy000]

Absolutely beautiful my friend

[@tonyhuynh874]

thats nothing we waiting 128 days for this

[@chocol8milkman750]

Richard, Are you ever going to paint it? ha!

[@gp992]

Awesome, excellent

[@warrenthompson3896]

Way too busy for me, but hey so long as you guys like it that’s all that counts

[@christravis481]

I think Richard may have designed the Great Pyramids.

[@glenncallahan9037]

Nice brother udaman!

[@mandyleeson1]

Beautiful.

[@HemiNO1]

great work

[@cryptonymsslc]

Great video!

[@UnkleBen]

😮 the things you do for love

[@PlugNuster]

Amazing!

[@beverlyboys73]

With your talents, I would love to see stained wood and lots of it.

[@michiganporter]

Your a pro bud

[@doug2078]

Nice !! 👍

[@Bman1221]

It’s okay, I would have done it in 30 years! JK, beautiful work!!

[@rossboyd2272]

Did you get all your stolen tools replaced. And did they catch the person responsible.

[@jacobfaso5517]

How much would you charge for this? I’m guessing atleast 10k if it’s 128 hours of labor

[@marklaffey7972]

Quality takes time

[@timmernator1]

purty...👍👍

[@philipmiller5202]

music is great

[@PacificCoastHobbies]

👏🏼

[@jprz3837]

Damn that shit was sexy bro. Keep doing what you do man.

[@eagl3ye]

Finish carpenters from the 80s would be in shock that guys are becoming pseudo video celebrities doing the same work they do.

[@JuanSanchez-bd3fi]

That’s beautiful young men

[@stevehastie4951]

ADD ? 😅

[@harvey_weenstain8857]

Did that all wrong bro

[@JJ-gq1se]

You are one bad mother father sir 👍

[@joshjosh575]

Yeah, how to scam your client. This project is a 24 hour project broken in 3 days. You must be really bad at cuts, or you just don’t know what you’re doing.

[@QWERTY7773]

This is getting boring

[@Paul-IE-Repairs]

hopefully you didn't bid this job and it paid hourly

[@jamiefors5062]

It's his own home ! ffs
