Building a Dining Table That Will Stand the Test of Time

[@zacharydavis7186]

You should make some videos fixing electronics and stuff ! That would be awesome

[@dtacklind]

Your story about taking things apart when you were younger is just like what my brother did with his two boys. He would rummage through dumpsters in Silicon Valley for electronics to take apart. Very soon they started to put them back together and make them work. They are now brilliant engineers. I have no doubt that your future kids will grow up to have your curiosity and be brilliant at what ever they choose .

[@jkey2u815]

I was that kid growing up. Thanks for bringing back those memories.

[@jcpenwell]

I was that same kind of kid. I think I disassembled and reassembled my Millennium Falcon no less than a dozen times. My son is 3-1/2 and he is already taking after his dad. No toy is safe, but his fine motor skills are already crazy developed.

[@angiegargano7624]

I completely love love love the idea of encouraging kids to fiddle around with stuff…I did as a child (being a girl I was never encouraged) yet ended up with a degree in electronics. Of course there’s my love and passion for woodworking :) Keep up with all the amazing KZbins and all that you both do!!!

[@Woodbrew]

That is amazing:) So many of us share such similar paths to woodworking. Electronics seem like the perfect introduction for kids.

[@randywright7933]

I first started building speaker boxes. Thanks for sharing guys

[@gabrielcaro5665]

I too started my making journey by taking random things apart as a kid! It is a great way to learn!

[@Woodbrew]

It really is!

I'm still trying to get the courage to fix my macbook pro lol... I know they have a kit to repair the keyboard, however, it looks daunting. There is an iFixIt Repair shop like 20miles from me so I may just take it to them. I can change the battery, which I also need replaced. But the keyboard repair scares me 🤣 As a kid, we (my brothers & I, but mostly me) would watch "The Ne Yankee Workshop" with living legend Norm Abram. Growing up watching him build amazing things, definitely contributed to my love of woodworking. Norm & Bob Ross but who doesn't enjoy watching Bob paint & hear his painting stories 😃 Thanks for sharing your process Woodbrew. Keep them coming guys 👀

[@Woodbrew]

Norm is the goat🐐 I think you can handle the keyboard, but also don't blame you for being nervous😕

[@CrossCutCreations]

This is such an awesome build! I've been following your journey since it first started and its awesome to see how you guys have grown and evolved.

[@sarahgrecu4070]

This turned out so so beautiful....Also, I started learning to build when I was younger to help my dad. He would always put a part on backwards or upside down so we started doing projects together so he could teach me to catch his mistakes before they happened :)....I miss those days so much and I hope my dad is up in heaven watching as I grow my love for building and now that I have started to put things together backwards and upside down its time to start building with my kids. I hope my daughter will want to pick it up so I can pass on the woodworking to my beautiful daughter as being a woman and a woodworker is so empowering! Anyways love the video once again you guys killed it!!!!

[@Woodbrew]

haha that is awesome! I am sure he is grinning ear to ear:)

[@devils30hockey]

I did alot of that to as a kid and learned a wealth of information that I use to this day to fix items for friends and family. They say it's not broken till I look at it because 90% of the time I can fix it.

[@Woodbrew]

Lol this is me too😂 Mr fixit of the family.

[@jimrosson6702]

Started a love of making things that start when I was a kid working with my grandfather just sorry it stopped for so many years and now I’m feeling the need to return to making things in my grandfather’s memory. The table turned out absolutely beautiful so many little details amazing job you two are such an inspiration to myself and so many others. Keep up the amazing work. Can’t wait to see it installed

[@Woodbrew]

Thank you very much:) You should get back into it. Making things is so incredibly rewarding.

[@jimrosson6702]

Yes it is I’m slowly starting to buy a few tools when I can and set up a little shop it just takes time being on disability so I just have to look for tools on marketplace on sale. But you are right for sure it’s an amazing feeling. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@jefftrout2743]

Very unique design. Very cool.

[@calebtyner1890]

Been loving y'all's videos recently and what it is like owning a woodworking business! I will say that I tried taking my laptop apart this past week because the battery stopped charging out of nowhere, and I did not have the correct bit to be able to take the back panel off and investigate it, so just having that opportunity in the future would be super nice.

[@Woodbrew]

[@delandbrooks3291]

I started with Model cars. I guess I kind of learned backwards since I started putting things together first. I have since rebuilt almost every system on a car and rebuilt and sometimes built industrial machinery. Now that I'm retired, I'm going back to all the hobbies I never had time for. I'm also restomodding a 68 Chevy truck and starting to learn a few new skills.

[@carataylor7681]

That is beautiful!!

[@chashint1]

Your skills are already quite good and still improving. I am very impressed with both of you. Looking forward to seeing your continued success.

[@Thig706]

I got into fixing stuff just by being curious as to what makes stuff work. I also enjoyed taking stuff apart that was broken and repurposing the parts in other things. The IFIXIT kits seem to include a lot of the tamper proof screw bits which I like.

[@Woodbrew]

I knew we weren’t the only ones who take things apart! The iFixit Manta kit has even more than the kit we showed

[@cliff5240]

I started my pathway into making stuff when I started taking shop classes in high school, many years ago -- do they even offer them anymore? I was also fascinated by my dad's ability to fix anything!!

[@Woodbrew]

Our community fortunately still prioritizes trades to some extent. We have a shop class and off campus trade programs at our local highschool.

[@JustinDepew]

Beautiful build! Wondering how you find your clients? Do they come through KZbin or do you advertise locally?

[@Woodbrew]

Usually local advertising and word of mouth from previous clients!

[@davidgelinas8460]

Nice Build ! Great Team !

[@jylekones8]

I just found your channel a couple weeks ago and I’m loving everything about it!! Inspiring

[@Woodbrew]

I'm so glad! Thank you!

[@markduggan3451]

That looks amazing.

[@Woodbrew]

Thank you!

[@michaelborio956]

Hey guys! Where did you get those half round pieces you used to get the fluted pattern?

[@jameshorrocks2939]

As a child I was very good at finding my own ways to fix things.

[@Woodbrew]

😁

[@dojmike]

How deep in the wood does the moisture meter measure? Does that matter on thicker woods?

[@Woodbrew]

It has a 1/4" and 3/4" depth reading and it is better to use the deeper one on thicker wood.

[@Tiggger99]

Did you make the flutes? Where did get them and how wide?

[@Woodbrew]

We made them!

[@markwatters6875]

Stay true to yourselves. 👍🇦🇺

[@jasonfaulkner3215]

Awesome

[@Woodbrew]

❤️

You two are transitioning from woodworkers to wood artists. We are going to have to come up with some cool French style names for you. You know . . . names with accent marks in them such as Salvador Dalí, Thérèse-Mirza Allix, or Louise Abbéma. Then add a bunch of extra letters to make your names impossible to pronounce, like Adolphe Bouguereau or Antoine Ansiaux. We don't need to go so far as to cut off an ear like Van Gogh, but maybe just a piece of finger or toe. Then finally, mix up a gallon or two of several paint colors that don't match and slop it on your furniture with a mop. I guarantee you'll be a famous celebrity in no time at all.

[@Woodbrew]

Hahah appreciate that!
