BrainPick - Live Q&A with Frank Howarth | I Like To Make Stuff

[@jasons4882]

WOW! I never even remotely thought Frank had a stutter. This is amazing to see him speaking in real time versus the videos he produces. What an amazing mind! This is the clearest example of don't judge people based on first glance. Frank is by far my favorite person to watch on KZbin.

[@TerryPullen]

I have a serious Frank Haworth addiction.

[@Polsnulspace]

He discusses it in one of his videos. I can't remember which one though. I think he was making a piece to auction for a local stutter charity....or something along those lines.

[@thesergeant3524]

Frank is the only woodworking youtuber that my wife will watch with me. After watching one of his segmented bowl videos she turns to me and says "I think we need a lathe". DEAR GOD THANK YOU FRANK HOWARTH!!!!

[@paulprice]

thesergeant lolol this is soo true. I showed my GF one of his videos and she was like "can you make something like that?" and I said I didn't have a lathe and that's what I'd need to to start learning wood turning. she then replied "you need to get a lathe'

[@thesergeant3524]

Paul, do it, you won't regret it! Seeing this comment was such a throw back for me. I left it two years ago and since then I've learned to turn and so has my wife. In fact, I think she's done more projects that I have. She calls the wood lathe "her lathe" whenever she refers to it or talks about it with friends. Once again -- THANK YOU FRANK HOWARTH!!!

[@modestmaking5314]

My girlfriend also watches Frank's videos with me, but she also watches Bob's because she's a geek. That's it though so I guess that means these 2 are doing it right!

[@guernica69]

Oh my goodness! What a sweet, genuine man. I adore Frank's videos, and am impressed that he agreed to speak live here despite his slight stutter. Great job, men.

[@iainbrown4945]

Frank has a unique style His overall delivery ( and his little laugh) is something that connects with lots of people In addition his projects are really interesting and cant wait to see what he does with the CNC machine

[@rippermcguinn]

I am a Johnny-Come-Lately to this video, although I follow both ILTMS and Frank Howarth. I have major respect for both channels, but I have to tell that my respect for Frank is 10X based on this video. I am a "stress stutterer", and for Frank to put himself out there is so strong. It just goes to show that what we are so much more than what we appear to be. SO strong.

[@JoeMastersonsgoogleaccount]

Great show Bob, each episode of BrainPick gets better and better. This has been my favorite so far. Frank is an absolute genius. Thanks for the insight and the inspiration from both of you.

[@Iliketomakestuff]

Thank you so much! I'm SO SO glad he was willing to do the show! It was great!

[@jimmydiresta]

Question frank; who do you draw inspiration from? frank thank you for sharing with us ! and bob thank you for making it possible !! Wish I could have been here live. Was driving all evening xoxo

[@ThatOhh]

frank howarth Thanks for taking the time, you're awesome and a great inspiration.

[@djAnakin]

Found this channel when searching for Frank, very cool. Frank is the man. His videos are AMAZING! My 5 year old daughter LOVES sitting and watching them with me.

[@theanimalmuppet]

Frank is the best woodworker on KZbin.

[@Mitch-zr4wb]

Without a doubt

[@adamb2619]

Frank is brilliant. What I have learned from his videos is indescribable. Would love the honor to meet him one day.

[@thewoodenwonderlandco.7667]

i love Frank even more after watching this what a guy. :)

[@Iliketomakestuff]

Yeah, he's very awesome :)

[@gusaleman5474]

The Wooden Wonderland Co. Thank you Frank for sharing your life with us. 😎

[@SteveFrenchWoodNStuff]

I'm just now getting around to watching this episode. frank howarth , I had no idea you were a fellow stutterer. I actually got more into making videos for KZbin a couple years ago as a way to exercise my own speech therapy. Oddly, my only fluent video is my one telling about my stuttering. Honestly, my normal speech is no better now than then. But at least it helps me cope and show that people who stutter are just people like every one else. Only some of us are especially talented (just not so much verbally)! I'm proud of you, Frank. You, your work and videos are ask amazing and inspiring.

[@SteveFrenchWoodNStuff]

Also, I want to thank ***** clagget for being so kind and patient. It's difficult enough when your stuttering acts up. So it really helps to deal with someone who puts things at ease. So, thanks all around to Bob and Frank.

[@WorldOfWoodcraft]

Frank has been a hero of mine for some time, watching this video makes him more of a hero to me.

[@dougaduncan]

Frank is the best! Love your work!

[@MarkLindsayCNC]

I can't wait for this one. I've been a big fan of Frank's work for a long, long time.

[@stevecollins9450]

Really enjoyed the show, Bob. Thanks so much Frank for taking the time.

[@Iliketomakestuff]

Steve Collins Glad to hear it!

[@just.some.dud3]

Holy crap! I can't wait for this one, Frank is one of my favorite KZbin woodworkers, if not my favorite. Thanks for doing all these Bob, they are fantastic. Izzy was great tonight. :)

[@MRrwmac]

Frank I know you have been hearing it a lot but I just finished watching the show and had to tell you how impressed I am with your work! All of it! Not only is there excellent design in the builds themselves but in the design of the video itself. Both entertaining and somewhat cliff hanger experience in what you come up with next in each segment of a particular video. Art on many plateaus. You're an amazing person and father. Thank you for sharing that with us!

[@cameronempey8350]

I've always struggled with a stutter also I love Franks videos and he seems like a really nice guy makes me like his videos even more what talent!

[@AndreaArzensek]

Great show! I love Frank's work, especially bowls and videos...damn it, I love it all. He inspired me to make my videos on YT!

[@DesignBuildExecute]

Frank was my driving force to get into segmented bowls. A true craftsman!

[@jppatlorn1]

Frank is one of my favorite woodworkers on KZbin.

[@الموسوعةالعسكريةالمصرية-ط7و]

after this video and the way he talks...I can say that Frank Howarth has all the characteristics of a genius

[@rossjlee]

No offence to this channel. I'm a new subscriber and I think all of the content is well done. But frank is the wood zen master. I'm always excited when frank uploads a new video.

[@Iliketomakestuff]

No offense taken! Frank absolutely is a master!

[@ThePotomuss]

Frank is an amazing guy! His style of video production is polished and entertaining, and the topics he covers are a perfect blend of creative and practical. Thank you both for doing this interview!

[@toddallaria5469]

So glad you were able to get Frank...huge fan, both of his woodworking and his videography.

[@shroboy07]

I am glad to hear that your bosses are calvin and clair! I really enjoy how you make things for them and incorporate them into your films.

[@TerryPullen]

At first I thought Frank was pulling our leg with the stutter, you know stop motion talking. His videos are incredible, I love his work and I really like his voice. I'm a big fan.

[@constantinosbagropoulos7914]

Frank is a complete artist is every term and aspect of the word. The design, concept, craftsmanship as well the execution, the content and the presentation are so beautifully balanced that make you a part of his projects. Thanks for the interview. Keep it up :)

[@TheCHRISCaPWN]

I originally listened to this on the podcast feed when it dropped, but wanted to revisit it again. Frank is so interesting, and such a unique maker. Definitely worth a revisit.

[@dgnytes]

What a great interview Frank! We need more. There was some awesome questions too! Big fan.

[@clmillard97]

I always get excited when scrolling through my KZbin feed and see one of Franks videos pop up.

[@TheMarellimad]

oh man, wish I could have seen this live but very good questions. Love Frank's chanel. It is just all so well put together and his way of showing his craft is amazing.

[@seandunlap1743]

I'm glad to catch it this morning. Appreciate what you each are doing. Thanks guys!

[@daniboi79]

Frank, love your videos, filming style and projects. Really enjoy the way you break down your process. Keep them coming. Bob thanks for the pick.

[@andyw5150]

Frank, this was amazing! Thank you for taking the time to share your insight and wisdom! I'm so inspired by the KZbin collective of makers!!

[@TheOomgosh]

I wasn't able to catch the live event, but I was looking forward to this one. It was great to hear from Frank. Thanks to both of you.

[@TeeGiang]

great job guys...i had no idea frank has a studder. in his videos he sounds perfect. how did he manage to sound normal in the video is amazing to me. i have a slight studder myself.

[@sahlind]

Maybe something resembling the technique from "The Kings Speech", a movie with Colin Firth.

[@SuppaflyZSM]

I bet he does several takes of the audio, that and probably can work around it somewhat when he's just recording himself vs answering questions on the fly?

[@TeeGiang]

Zach M ya im kinda the same way, i feel more comfortable when theres no pressure on responding to questions.

[@HUNTINDUCS]

Thanks for doing this Brain Pick. I enjoy watching both of your channels.

[@TheMarcball]

Thanks Frank and Bob for this shared moment !

[@daveweber1331]

Well, I guess this is indicative of my style - always about 2 years or more behind! I didn't know this video existed until it showed up in my YT feed today... Frank has been a real inspiration to me over the years, and watching & Listening to him struggle through the challenges of a live video has only endeared him further, to myself. No, I don't stutter, but have other issues that have kept me from expressing my talents, and fulfilling my dreams... I have just gained even more respect for a fellow human being, who HAS found a way to connect with others - and has ended up being hugely poplar, even, hear on You Tube. Thanks, Bob, for doing this. 2+ years later, you've earned another sub. :-) - Dave

[@NaluRash]

Wow. I'm so glad I live in this day and age. Seeing all these wood workers come together is like my version of the Avengers. Woodworking super heroes. But to my wife and many others, you dont even exist, lol. Thank you Bob for putting these together, and thank you to all of your guests.

[@waiakalulu3501]

One aspect I like about Frank's videos is when he free draws his concepts figures and shows the creative process of how he ends up with his final design. He makes his sketching look so easy and casual. For someone like me who can't draw his scribbles are singular works of art all on their own. Then there's Mrs. Howarth's cello playing - have not heard it recently, but it's awesomeness.

[@whippetz000]

[@DLM7576]

Good work Bob. Love Franks work!

[@timthompson3817]

I love this series. I'm amazed at Frank's abilities. His videos are just awesome.

[@JonHowes1]

I had no I idea he had a stutter. His videos do NOT convey this at all. Nontheless - one of my top favorite wood workers on KZbin! Keep it up Frank!!

[@Castle6064]

What a wonderful guy. Really enjoyed this video Thanks to both of you

[@WoodenCreationz]

Great video Frank and Bob! It's nice hearing Franks aspects to film making! My 5 year old and I enjoy watching your videos together Frank!

[@JosRitter]

Thanks Frank and Bob - really enjoyed this QA.

[@DarinBeard]

I love these brainpick videos. I just have recently found them and love to hear what you guys do and how you think about things. This one made me relax a little that you also worry about making mistakes in a video. I love Frank and have such respect for his abilities. Bob, you ain't no slouch, either. :)

[@thewavemaker]

What a combo! Great Q&A ! Keep up the good work , guys .

[@hanobester]

Not just a great woodworker, but a great person as well. Thank you for organizing the interview.

[@CharlesLi1]

Best one yet! Thanks to both of you!

[@Shaka_Vibe]

Frank Makes! One of my favorite KZbinrs! Frank, You rock!

[@Dont_Poke_The_Bear]

Frank's work is absolutely amazing!

[@kennypatchett9613]

Great show. I've recently become a fan of Frank and his amazing videos.

[@mikegregory8536]

Thanks Bob, Frank's videos are great and he is a super interesting guy. I also love your new podcast. P.S. The pocket notebooks I bought from you are great, my wife likes them too...........Mike in Canada

[@Iliketomakestuff]

Thanks Mike!

[@robc4798]

Another great show Bob, I love both of your channels.

[@gregaltenhofel7326]

Frank is one of my favorite woodworker as well as one of my favorite videographer. I have architect and design background and because of my dad have been around film since I was a kid in the 60's when it really was film. His videos always seem familiar to me. Sort of a homey feeling

[@bradpolkinghorne5282]

Been looking forward to this one Frank is great, I watch all his videos

[@SoldierDemps]

Amazing guy, Amazing Talent, good Job Frank, I love your work.

[@phishy96]

[@EDCMatt]

Great show Bob, Thanks for sharing with everyone Frank love your videos!!

[@ot0m0t0]

When Frank Howarth makes a video its a instant like, must wach :) Love our stuff man.

[@anthonydesantis8000]

Frank got me into wood turning and now he's got me into this channel. I guess I owe him twice now.

[@Shopbuilt]

Great show guys!

[@bassamrizk9877]

Frank's creative woodworking videos were my inspiration to roll up my sleeves and start playing with wood and tools...

[@spacecat86]

thank you both for sharing. awesome stuff. you both are inspirations to me.

[@BeastIt9]

Firstly...thanks for posting this Bob. Frank Howarth is AMAZING...and that stutter is perhaps why he's the wood whisperer... Because perfect imperfections only enhance beauty. #frankrocks

[@louisphillips4811]

FRANK you are a true inspiration!!

[@charleyandsarah]

Love Frank's videos! One of my favorite channels. And really enjoyed the interview, Bob. Maybe something that would help with the questions is copying and pasting the ones you want to ask into a separate document so they can't move around on you.

[@ybaggi]

I'm such a fan of Jimmy DiResta. I think I watched everything of his on YT over the past 2 months when I discovered him....

[@kato78290]

Frank, u r my idol! I come from Argentina!!! We love you!

[@valleymount]

Franks work is Amazing!

[@OneWoodAuwoodworking]

A big thanks Frank and Bob, i really love your Videos Frank and your design is amazing. Your videos have given me a lot of inspiration i hope to add some stop motion to my upcoming videos for a bit of fun, keep up the good work guys.

[@Spartakips]

I'm very excited to see this interview! :D

[@gustavo13k]

Frank is a great guy, and a great woodworker as well

[@whitewolf8758]

I have always said to people in architecture type work they should spend some intern time in the building world at various stages from digging to cement to building to sheetrocking to finshing the project to understand what the meaning of every line they draw to see how simple to complex the project really are. For instance drawing a circle room with triangle inside to divide each room is easy to draw but building this hands on is far more complex than lines on paper. It can be done. Thanks again!

[@ChazSingh01]

Huge respect for Frank.

[@ComfortablyNumbMusic]

Frank, love your work!

[@Shangirala]

Fantastic. Excellent show Bob (they have all been). frank howarth - Huge Fan. I am planning on making a trip to Portland, to check out your work at the Japanese restaurant in person.

[@kftb7183]

What a talent! If you are here, you probably watched Frank's videos already. If not, you have hours of entertainment ahead. Enjoy!

[@wesleybrandon1906]

You guys are awesome!

[@MatthewWebb62024]

my first BP episode. Hooked. Two of my favorites.

[@just.some.dud3]

Awesome so far. Frank is a fascinating dude. :)

[@MarcGriffies]

Frank is one of my favorites and would love to get the full benefit of understanding this brainpick video with Frank except it is not closed captioned like with Mathias Wandell. I am deaf and would appreciate it if you could edit this video and turn on the automatic closed caption generator for us guys in the hearing impaired community. Hats off to both Bob and Frank!

[@zizzle8472]

Frank the detail Master!

[@ecstaticbanana1063]

Great videos man. Been enjoying them lately. I've been watching since you had maybe 1000 subs. Keep up the great work!

[@Iliketomakestuff]

Thanks Langdon! I really appreciate you supporting me!

[@williamhayden7711]

Love ya Frank and your stutter! You rock!

[@dessertman1181]

Frank Howarth My absolute favorite KZbin guy he’s awesome he’s just a cool dude

[@woodsprout]

Thanks Frank for your videos. I enjoy your projects and methods. Thanks for doing this Q & A. I hope more people will understand the minds and hearts and skills and people behind a stutter. I'm with you on the introversion aspect. I loved Architecture, Drafting, Electronics, and Woodshop in highschool, but I wanted nothing to do with the school vocational club and extracurricular activities.

[@websurfer44]

Frank is awesome!

[@SpeedysWoodshop]

Frank is awesome!!!

[@AdamBen115]

I had no idea that frank had a stutter, I myself tend to stutter a little. I love all of both of your videos.

[@kercmerk]

Bob AND Frank?! How have I not seen this video until now?!

[@letholnor]

Frank! Love your movies!

[@NighthawkNZ]

How is the french cleat cupboard working out... Oh I can never find my pencils either... and I have them spread out around the shop... still can never find them...lol

[@Popsy1972]

Hahaha, the woodworkers curse, there is NEVER a pencil around when you need one!...

[@42fontenator]

Frank is THE MAN.
