3x3 Custom Channel Intro

Hi! My name is Tamar, welcome to my channel, 3x3 Custom! I am a mother of 3, DIY'er and Woodworker who loves to share my building process.
I am NOT a professional, everything I have learned has been from KZbin, Google and Instagram. Oh yeah and a little trial and error too ;)
Building is so much fun and it really is so easy. If I can do it, so can you!
Follow along and hopefully you can learn something new!

My kids are grown, but hearing those voices at the end was so sweet. I've enjoyed your channel and I've learned a great deal. I too am building out my tool inventory, making tables, 'stuff' for my kids, grandkids. It's a lot of fun. Keep up the great inspiring work, we all really appreciate it.

[@brib_brib_brib_bri]

I owe you a huge "thank you". I'm a novice woodworker and I've learned so much from your channel. I find you to be a model of patience when you are trying to be precise. I struggle at times with wanting to take short cuts and then end up regretting it. Now, when I feel the temptation to rush my mantra is "What would Tamar do?". I try to channel your penchant to take your time to get the setup right, use test cuts, etc. You've had a huge effect on the quality of my projects. So... Thank you!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

That’s so awesome to hear! Thanks!

[@pinksoulstudios]

Omg. The bloopers at the end....amazing. 🤣😂

Now I realize that you are self-taught! That encourages me a lot because I only saw older men trained in expensive academies. Thank you!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Awesome

[@gwbuilder5779]

Video #1. Look how far you've come Tamar.😊 The same smiling face, cheerful kids (probably 😜🤣😂), a temperature controlled shop full of fabulous tools, and still a bright shining light here on the Tube.😉 I thought I'd seen all of your videos and this randomly popped up this morning. What a great reminder.👌 Life tries to swallow us up, but when we close the door, tune out the noise, and be still for a while, perspective returns with a fresh way of thinking. Tamar, You are a light on a hill. When the sun is out it might appear that you cannot be seen, but you can, just have to look a little closer. Like a candle, you can see the flame even in the brightest sunlight and as the sun gives way to evening the brilliance grows and the flame can be seen from far away. Finding the time to do everything you want to do is hard, kids, family, life, and then KZbin when you can. You got it exactly right. People look forward to seeing your posts whenever you can because you inspire and motivate everyone to give it a try. Thanks for the sunshine.😉🤙

[@qualidadewmetal3592]

Hi Tamar! The years for you do not pass! It's in 2022 the same thing as 2017 or even more beautiful!

[@JohnWilliams-dy5dz]

Obviously not a beginner anymore! I’ve watched a lot of woodworking videos over the last 5 years I think your work is second to none.

[@jamesyarusso4467]

I'm not sure how you do it but being a Mom in and of itself can be exhausting. You do a great job of explaining and crafting, as I've now seen several of your videos. Your enthusiasm is contagious. I especially like your mini mortising jig.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

It’s a lot. Ha thanks!

[@kevinb6102]

Very cool to see the start of your channel

[@xXSCARECROW19Xx]

As someone who has just gotten into woodworking this year I love this channel. Very inspiring.

thank you Tamar. i predict in the future you will have an amazing work bench and shop hang in there . yup your a mom , good for you . yes i am psychic. from here i can predict the future . just hang in there .

[@woodprojectswithalex2692]

I really didn't see this funny part of your channel!! I even didn't know you're the mother of three children!! wow!! I just saw a little girl in some part of one of your clip!! It will be funny and so difficult to take care of the three children, usually in school time! wow, you're a hero! I Hope you're doing well every single day Tamar. Thanks for sharing this, Alex

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Haha! Yeah. We have fun over here 😉

[@lynnettequick]

Don't you just it when you kids announce that they went to the bathroom! But truly Tamar I love everything about you, you're so real and that is so refreshing! I always look forward to what you're going to build next! Keep up the videos!!! 🙌🏼

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Lynnette Quick haha thanks so much Lynette!! You can't make this stuff up... 😂

[@anubhabasabat1544]

Exactly....I was wondering what is different about her but not getting the words...she is real and refreshing....smiles are a bonus...I am great full for seeing a person like her... Lynnette Quick thanks for the words...and Tamar thanks for you being you

[@lightstreetcreations]

your channel has really grown and you have made some amazing stuff over the years.

[@bokrantzsimonsen1791]

Hi, I just love your attitude and the fact that you so clearly point out how fun and creative DIY build projects can be. Another reason why I love your channel is the fact that you show that it's not a "man thing" to use drills and other power tools etc. It's a shame that especially many women still stand back from this type of activity (even in a quite gender liberated country like Denmark, where I live). It is a thing for everybody. - It is simply having fun being active and creative. Yet another good thing is that these types of builds usually last a long time so they can be nice souvenirs reminding us about the good experiences for many years. When (if) I get old and doze off in my "rocking chair" I expect to blink at the pieces in the room and smile. :-) Note: I'm 61 y.o. and self-taught starting looooong before the Internet/KZbin came into existence, and as you I have gained a lot of knowledge over the years just by DOING. It is such a giving process. I found your channel through this French speaking guy giving credit to you: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZWUnJ1ugrSAqqM

[@bigviper64]

I like your style, you’ve already taught me a lot..

[@ralphlivingston894]

You and your family… Are so charming. It’s really not fair to all the other people who are doing videos… You are loaded with charisma and Artistry on your projects.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much 😊

[@ralphlivingston894]

I’ve learned a lot from your channel but... that one may still be my favorite?

[@paulnfoley]

I really like the live edge coat rack project. I have some black walnut planks that are seasoning and I'll try this as soon as its warm enough to work here (Ontario). I've been thinking a lot about the attachment and think that I'll try a 'built in' French cleat with the mate to be attached to the wall made out of black walnut as well. Since the slot for the French cleat will have to pass through the pivoting parts, that will be a full dado. I've got a few details to work out I'm sure. I enjoy your videos. Keep up the great videos. Also appreciate your choice of Scotch on the bar cart. Paul

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Awesome! Have fun with it!

[@paulnfoley]

@@3x3CustomTamar I'm also thinking of trimming the bottom edge straight to avoid the complicated geometry and use a continuous long rod as pivot.

[@38ohone]

Thank you for having the courage to start this channel. I'm a builder too but haven't mastered some tools. One is a table saw and the other is a trim router (well, any type of routers none the less). Could you please make a video on using the Rigid trim router because I just picked up the same one and I'm lost as how to use it? Thanks again and welcome to KZbin!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Dorayley Rae Ramses thanks! It really did take a lot of courage and deep breaths to actually press the publish button on here... but now I’m happy I did it! I can try to work on one. But if you even have any questions feel free to reach out to me. I usually answer all DMs on Instagram. ☺️

You learned from being a mother too. Your careful language, your attention to detail, is very motherly and kind. If you deal with your kids the same way, they're probably very well-adjusted kids. Who's your old man? You should get him out there from time to time, show us who the lucky man is.

[@eternalfizzer]

I literally had to look up how you learned your incredible skill after watching your video on the charging end-table. This gives me hope I can aspire to your level by my bootstraps (with a lot fo practice!) Thanks so much for the positive intro!! I think I'm going to have to start at your first video and follow thru trying every method :-D

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Ha! If I can do it you can too!

[@ManCrafting]

Haha. That was awesome. I totally have the same philosophy. I've learned a ton. I'm no pro, but when I share it's to give back and to show that if I can do it anyone can.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

The online woodworking community is just so amazing. We all learn and grow from each other. Community over competition!

[@tenderlovellcare]

[@douglasmurray1829]

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks! Nope. Never made one

[@free-energy-systems]

Have always wondered where 3x3 came from. It's a cool graphic.

[@Anders_pa_landet]

Hi Tamar! Love your channel! I would like to see how you organise your workshop and what machines you use. Last year my barn burnt down and I lost all my tools and machinery. The upside is that I get to rebuild and replace everything. So now I search for inspiration everywhere. //A

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Oh no! Maybe I’ll make a video on that

Hi Tamara, I loved this video, you are a breath of fresh air. I am in the process of changing my career from a professional back ground to DIY here in England and so have been watching many many you tube vids on making things. Your channel is fabulous so far. Thank you. I do have a question, what advice do you have for setting up a you tube channel to get me started? Thanks in advance. Alan

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! DIY life is super fun! Setting up KZbin channel advice.... hmmm.... Just be yourself and be consistent. I’ve only just started myself. So I don’t have all the answers!

[@chailee6060]

I admire you, Mama! I'm a mom with a 20-mo-old and a fetus, and I yearn to be a woodworker so badly! How has your journey been from a Mom into a woodworker? Sometimes the dream seems so far out of grasp. But I could use some down-to-earth advice--good, bad, and ugly, you know?

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Hi! So I didn’t even start to think this could be a reality until my youngest was in school. I would sneak in small projects during nap time and all that. But I couldn’t really focus on it until he was off to school. Now that the kids are in school it’s just all about planning. I spend the mornings taking care of the house. Prepping dinner and all that. Then I have the afternoons to build (and now edit videos) once the kids are home at 3 all the tools go down and it’s all focus on the kids again! It’s a lot of hard work and juggling. But it’s all worth it!

[@tomgeary7850]

Hey, Tamar. Super impressed with your waterfall table. I've been trying to get better at wood working, but you've gotten to a top 1% skill level, seemingly really quickly. Really impressive. Beyond YT and so on, have you taken classes? (The kid / bloopers are charming as can be, also). Thanks, Tom

[@3x3CustomTamar]

[@afafz6743]

Hello, entering my fifties I recently took up woodworking and discovered your videos. I am very happy that I did, because I have already learned quite a bit from you. Thank you! I do have one question though. In your juice groove/cutting board video, you smoothed the cutting board with your DeWalt thickness planer (a very good planer I hear), but then sanded over it. I have understood that planing is superior to sanding, so I am wondering what advantage you see to sanding after planning. Thank you and I look forward to more videos.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Hi! That’s so awesome to hear! Sometimes I get lines or snipe from my planer that need to be sanded out. If I were proficient with my hand tools could prob use a handplane to get a super smooth finish
