[@BlackPeagas]

@@Samstrex but the table is way more destroyed then a simple and elegant punch through circle. I use 2 punch through holes as my cable management. The insert he showed did look ugly, but you could build a different looking one, wood looking if you wanted.

[@erictheboringone5292]

Lukas A hole thru your desk isn’t simple or elegant. Routing out a small area underneath the surface of you desk in order to place a large wireless charging unit that you sourced for a great price on the other hand is simple and elegant in every way. You are an actual moron so you’re at least simple, not so elegant though.

[@BlackPeagas]

@@erictheboringone5292 What he did was simply vulgar destroying the woodworking of the table. I would never in my life destroy my custom 2 piece L shaped desk like that. Making a punch through circle is like 10s job with the proper equipment and what actual wood workers do. It makes a clean and elegent hole. This diy solution is as elegent as hiding wall damage behind a painting. Nobody will most likely see it, but it is a vulgar destrction.

I am a woodworker and a plunge router was a good choice for this. Also free handing anything with a router is never easy. For precise shapes and lines you really need a hard edges guide/template for the routers base to glide against. That would be a bit overkill for this application though so I’d probably have done the same as you. It’s hidden so who cares if it’s ugly. Nice practical video!

The plunge router was a PERFECT way to implement this plan. Getting the router from Harbor Freight was also perfect, especially since you aren’t planning on using this router on a daily, weekly or probably even monthly basis. The cost of the router compared with how long it will last considering your usage is as good as it gets. Cool video and great implementation of a DIY tech solution.

[@OmairArif]

You should make sure that charger supports 7.5W Qi if you want to fast charge your iphone. When a charger advertises 10W, most of the time it is referring to Samsung's 10W fast wireless charging, which is different from Qi. Samsung only supports the basic power profile of Qi, which is 5W. Anything above that is their proprietary wireless charging. So if the charger doesn't advertise that it can do 7.5W charging on iPhone, it won't. Even if it says it does 10W. Personally, I am fine with 5W wireless charging, as the point of wireless is more convenience rather than speed. If I really want speed that is what a 18W wired charger is for.

[@ArefinDipto]

So as an Editor, I started looking back at your early videos and progressed on to now. The evolution of the logo, animation, cinematography, video editing and sound and audio equipment and intro were a great looking through context. It does make me feel better that it took u years upon years making a lot of mistakes to come to this spot in your videos. So this motivates me, on working on my editing. Thanks Snazzy!!! Also, if u see this, i used to edit 30 min long vids on i3 first gen and 2 gb ram. It was my cousins pc. But thanks to your 70$ pc build video, I was able to get a used hp oem with i7 3770 and 8gigs ram. Although im a bit bottlenecked with a gt210 gpu, im saving up to buy a 750ti. Because of this now i can now use my editing skills to earn a bit of money. So I thank you.

Great idea, much better than recessing a charger into the top side of your desk. I know you might not could care less but for anyone that does, if you use something like some scrap 1' x 2" lumber you could double sided tape them to the surface you are routing on and create a "fence" for your router to run along and router any shape perfectly for a cleaner hole in the surface then remove the "fence" when your done.

[@DeathTempler]

Using same coil from eBay. Not sure how the other tutorials people did(mainly around August of last year) were stupid or too advanced. Make a hole under the desk close enough to the top to maximize charging capability, run a channel for the wire. You kinda did exactly what they did, just messier. I do agree on using a coil without an enclosure.

[@diplayball]

I actually just used a 15w wireless charger and put it in a nightstand and it works perfectly fine. I was going to get the one you mentioned but if a piece was broken or missing I didn't have tome to return it nor I don't have the right equipment to fix it. especially since it was for my husband's birthday. Also I used a router and I did pretty good with. My next one I do I'll try it your way 🤗

You should have first built a template of your desired shape as guide for the router. That’s how wood workers do it. Like you said it’s impossible to see the pencil line when using the router. That’s why wood workers build templates so the router wouldn’t veer outside the template guide.
