[@rodshoaf]

you should get some strap clamps

[@tk23606]

@@rodshoaf In a situation like that I literally just use ratchet straps

[@turnersparadise8368]

Man, I love the quiet videos but this voiceover is cool too. I loved having you explain the process. Not instructions on how to build but just your thoughts on the process. That was very good.

[@twowheelrodeo]

The squaring set-ups are the results level and plum because those joints are snug... That had always amazed me. Thank You for the demonstration, nice work.

[@danielgeng2306]

Have a bunch of my grandkids art hanging in my shop, always makes me smile ~

[@dannielfriedrichsen7226]

Absolutely prefer the narrated video. Hearing your thought process, design choices and reasons, along with the occasional screw up adds so much to the video. I also enjoy the silent projects. Now that I know you studied film and video, I understand why your videos are so compelling and satisfying to watch. Really appreciate your talents.

[@kylestokes1776]

There are a ton of videos on how to build furniture on KZbin (and I enjoy watching them) but they do not compare to your level of craftsmanship. Your mixture of modern and primitive style of woodworking is spot on!!

[@michaelcook768]

Just like in the 1800s...with modern components. This takes skill like folks at Clore Furniture in Madison, VA. They have made furnishings just like what you're doing since 1830. Andy, Google them, I think you would be at home in your mindsets. This is an exquisite piece.

[@Sepa9]

A workshop like yours, is my biggest dream! 👍

[@jamesnasmith984]

Very attractive piece. The camera shots give great exposure of the work process. And the narrative is clear and smooth. Thanks.

[@markjervis8558]

Absolutely top notch work .

[@erlpen2016]

I must subscribe!!! but not before i make a comment ...this dresser is such a beautiful example of what good craftsmanship is and yet it is only a small piece of the pieces needed in a room....

[@josephgray3232]

I really enjoy your voice over and your explanation as you build. The silent videos are good, but I prefer hearing you walk us through your process out loud. Thanks for the great content, keep it up!

[@donaldtrabeaux1305]

Awesome Andy about to watch the second video

[@freddofrog_]

I really like the commentary version and am glad you will be doing more of these. Thanks again for the great content

[@barryhansen6854]

You are a very skilled craftsman for sure that's a nice looking unit wish young people would learn these skills so that the trade continues to live on.

[@TheShavingWoodWorkshop]

I love watching the grain come alive when the finish is applied ! The dresser is looking great Andy.

[@kevinallard9804]

A work of art, love how you use the whole piece of wood all the around the dresser. Makes the differences in the wood pop.

[@helenaneumann1872]

I love the videos with music but with voiceover, too. Great explaination!

[@yijin4526]

Man, your joints can support an elephant! A very beautiful piece!

[@jimmcnett]

I like the narration. I can just watch the process without missing the details of the video. Thanks. I learned another great trick. Cut the large leg chamber after assembly.

[@scarmenl]

I have a passion for Greene & Greene myself. Having said that, excellent craftsmanship speaks for itself no matter the style. Thanks for the video.

[@patmcdermott8547]

Watched both videos, normally I like the silent version, but there was so much technique and detail in this build I got so much more out of this one. Looking forward to the finale!

[@kenstankiewicz6405]

I prefer people describing what they’re doing during a video. That S4S machine is absolutely awesome.

[@robjohnston8083]

Thanks Andy , keenly waiting for part 2.

[@kevinbowman22w]

Great work yet again. Looking forward to Part 2...

[@Chris-hh4ny]

I love this style of video! Especially for fine furniture builds. The piece looks beautiful, good job!

[@sdcofer52]

I had to stop two minutes in. What a great machine, that S4S! I'm sure it cost a mint, but well worth it. I do it by hand occasionally and each board could take 20-30 minutes all together. Wow!

[@straightshooter8443]

I know what you mean with the planer. That thing is golden. I have one in my shop and I have one outside that does top and bottom but goes much larger. It’ll cut thru Douglas fur and ask for more. The only thing that is time consuming is changing the blades on the drums. That is half a day right there. You have to change them and level them on both drums and on all four on the inside planer. I also have a band saw similar to the one you have. It’s a nice set-up. I’m not gonna lie. Nice piece of work you made for the client.

[@galehultquist1469]

Love to hear you explain what you are doing, product use etc.

[@alphasails2]

You definitely have a rare skillset. Very nice. Thanks for sharing.

[@MathanielTZ]

Beautiful work!

[@tylerlee2833]

Great video and amazing craftsmanship. Well done.

[@TomokosEnterprize]

I love the Shaker style. Solid and simple and attractive. They last for years eh.Great visit once again Andy. Stunning piece !

[@AndyRawls]

Thanks!!

[@fcschoenthal]

Looks great Andy. I'm sure that the client will be thrilled. Can't wait to see the finished piece. - Chris

[@daveparker5569]

Just. Really. Beautiful. Work.

[@jmp116]

Came out really nice

[@mySelf-yx4hw]

wow a great video and i have subscribed love the calm commentary and the quiet way you go about things the kids get the best seat in the house :-)

[@jorgeconcheyro]

I can only think of what a fantastic tribute to an awesome tree. The dresser looks so so great, super old school... wow mate, you're so talented. Cheers from Buenos Aires!!!!.

[@bigdogmn73]

I love this style with the voice over as I enjoy hearing about some of the mistakes and how you fixed them.....perfect!!

[@worshipwatcher55]

Another great video. I enjoyed the wall art...yes, the woodwork is amazing too but it is the wall art that makes the video real.

[@MoscaWoodworking]

that wood is awsome!! and it's a pleasure to see your, working, combining machine and hand tools. really looking forward to see next part

[@jasonscheffler9813]

Beautiful. Love the Shaker style. Simple by elegant at the same time.

[@befmx31]

I prefer a voiceover explaining the process. First time watching one of your videos. I really liked it. Beautiful work by the way.

[@torinhalsey6313]

I like the new style. Great-looking piece of furniture.

[@paulheitkemper1559]

New to the channel, but after watching this, I am subscribing. Great workmanship, great commentary.

[@gomake7932]

This is an incredible thing to share. Thank you. Awesome shop too!!!!

[@Pancakes479]

Knocked it out of the park as always. I've enjoyed following this build in your stories, and seeing it all come together in these videos rocks. Hope to build something half as nice some day!

[@MrSzwedowski]

Like your new style learn a lot more great job

[@clintonemmert5184]

Love the video, with you telling what’s going on, I read slowly. Love the kiddos in it also. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@tomlagatol4448]

Good vid Andy! I like the talk...hearing about the problems and the progress of the build really works for me. Good Job, thanks.

[@BubbaLeroy]

Wow! That’s amazing!

[@derrick1125]

Thanks for sharing. That dresser is beautiful. The narrative is good, I enjoyed it.

[@lettersandlove]

Fantastic build and gorgeous piece. Can’t wait for part 2!

[@margeryk000]

LOVE the narration! Your craftsmanship and attention to detail is superb. Looking forward to Part 2. Thanks for sharing another great video. Keep up the great work. ATB : )

[@dburd58]

Beautiful. Show the kids, it’s nice to see how it “really” is working at home rather than a production 😊 I like both style of videos fyi....thanks for sharing

[@workout8317]

I really like the way this is coming together looks a lot like a baby changing table dresser I just built for my grandson

[@ASousaMakesIt]

Dresser for the ages and looks great! Good job. Cheers from Portugal!

[@N556ND]

Andy, I really like this style. As a novice I really enjoyed your explanation of your method!

[@ryanedwardking]

I like both styles of videos. Your quiet ones are my version of Bob Ross painting but I love learning along with you as well.

[@brucemartin5510]

You do good work, sir!

[@jacobbartlow7542]

Andy, nice work! I really enjoy your narration and seeing your techniques! It’s very helpful for me as a new wood worker. Plus I love drooling over your shop tools!

[@justinofboulder]

Thanks for the narration! Hearing all of the details that went into the project really help me to appreciate it even more.... And also inspire me to put more passion into my trade

[@bg73]

I love types of videos from you. Awesome work

[@TheTranq]

Great looking so far. As soon as I have more shop space I plan to start making larger furniture.

[@RCW-Designs]

I'm loving the way this dresser is taking shape. New matching dressers, bed frame, and side tables are on my to do list for next year. I'm really hoping to sway my wife away from the metal frame stuff so I can practice my joinery and trim making skills.

[@williamellis8993]

Great build. Can't wait to see the rest of it. I also like to finish panels before assembly. The is no way to finish the portion of the panel inside the groove. This way there will be no unfinished area showing if the panel shrinks.

[@mrwoodwork5097]

Unbelievable! Fantastic job 👍🏻 I’m very much looking forward to part two!

[@johnpadgham9771]

Nice job - great video.

[@bobwoodhams7242]

nice job... looks great

[@howesfull8]

I like your work, but your kids are the best part of the video.

[@gregroberts875]

Great work.. thanks for sharing

[@jerrystark3587]

Best shop elves ever!

[@Ray_Sellner]

I turned on CC as soon as I saw the video. Looks great.

[@262cmb]

Extremely nice piece. I like to use the dominos for that apron. Then you don’t have any nail holes to care for. It if you aren’t worried about it that’s fine too. It takes more time to use the dominos. Again, very nice work.

[@raymontella2251]

Great job

[@brianturnbough]

Narrated video! SO MUCH MORE INFORMATIVE!!!

[@hanleyka]

Love the narration. Beautiful piece! I love the attention to detail everywhere but especially at the transitions.

[@airuiz2]

Beautiful work Andy! Your talent is inspiring.

[@theinternets7516]

I really like the narration. It helps me understand what you're doing and why. Great video.

[@msmith2961]

Sweet build Andy.

[@darrelltannahill4877]

Awsome build Andy!! I like the quiet videos, but the voice over is great to hear your process and problems

[@petergibbins4930]

Absolutely beautiful work my friend 😀

[@henrybotha]

Masterpiece! Your video style is really cool. Your workmanship is superb!

[@dennisdownes9319]

Spectacular piece! I love the narration; It is encouraging to know to "newer" workers like myself, that everything doesn't always go perfectly for the highly skilled and has to be worked out. The shop is impressive; beautiful sliding wood door with window, wicked cool S4S machine, smiling children and a surfboard............ surfing in Texas, who knew??? Hahahah ! DD

[@paultay23]

Great job and i love the new style of video... Paul in the UK

[@gnomacide07]

I loved this video. I have watched all of your videos, but this detailed, “big” build is excellent. Helps make me a better wood worker.

[@MrSbenn69]

Thanks for sharing and the commentary, really insightful🙂

[@brownyboy252]

Love this kind of video Andy, awesome work!

[@joshhoward1464]

Beautiful

[@PowellRoadDIY]

Man that’s some awesome work. I’m an aspiring wood working by hobby. I be ready for my Saturday and Sunday off to hit the shed to do whatever I can come up with for a project. Just completed building my daughter a TV stand out of some spruce I got from our local lumber yard. I’m working out of a run down 12 x16 metal shed. My goal is to one day have a decent shop to work in. In the meantime I’m picking up a tool here a tool there. This weekend I’m grabbing a set of dado blades or a hand plane..... love your content

[@rich3398]

Looks great. I know this video is old but I just found your channel. A tip, for the angled clamping. Save the offcut and tape it back in place then use a clamp to keep it from sliding up. This will square up your corner for more clamping pressure.

[@bradbusch9585]

Beautiful great video

[@CanadianMang]

Well this dresser is going to be around for centuries.

[@clydedecker765]

Really love this style of video... the others are fine but this is great.

[@joelthoenen3733]

Pumped to see this build

[@philipwarren7335]

Tanks for the narrated version

[@Mthompson2100]

This thing is stunning. I really love the commentary, I felt like I have learned a lot from your videos and the commentary only makes me learn more.

[@timeverett5482]

Great video enjoyed the build!! God Bless.

[@bryanthreet6761]

Beautiful man!

[@MJ-nb1qn]

Great Build, great narration, and such Beautiful Children you raised. You should be a Proud Man for all! You are my favorite craftsman. Please keep it up. Thanks! I also was curious how your mini splits are woking out. My HVAC guy advised me not to put one in my wood shop. Your ceilings, and thus placement is higher than mine would be.
