We also understand the need for privacy, so just let us know if this is something you would not prefer.

Our client list ranges from first time home owners to large commercial spaces. 95% of what we do is custom, so you will never have to apologize for wanting your piece exactly how you want it. Exactly how you want it is all we do. We hope you enjoy exploring our site and a get a chance to see our past projects, current inventory available for sale, or request a custom quote to start your own custom creation" (excerpt from www.blacktailstudio.com/about-us)

Been watching Cam since the beginning, it's been fantastic watching his channel and Cam himself grow

[@Acolytemedia]

Cam! If you read this - please do a series on the renovation of that big space you have! I'd be so interested to watch that. Vlogs are still a thing right? Heh ❤

[@mikegarvey1678]

100% agree with this 👍

[@suep9445]

YES!

[@therandomman6647]

Yes, please!

[@fnordeon1013]

Totally agree😊 But Cam is good at answering on his own videos. Why not message him there? Id love to see it, hadno idea he was moving until now .

[@Acolytemedia]

@@fnordeon1013 way ahead of you ^_^

[@douglasbrown3493]

Being a Med Flight helicopter pilot takes no small amount of intelligence, nerve and balls. Not a profession for the meek or timid. Cam has brought his experience, nerve and balls to this new chapter and I am thankful he shares it with us. Thanks Cam.

[@zuzu5175]

I love that this is not a podcast type interview! Showing Cam in his environment and splitting in footage from his vids is a really nice esthetic. Really nice video!! And Cam is fantastic, he has a natural artistic esthetic that cannot be taught. Can't wait to see what comes out of his new studio! Thank you

[@Butterfly_Girl1968]

I think the honesty and the mistakes makes the video more relatable.

[@matteoviewvoice1120]

Can we take a minute to talk about how gorgeous Cam is? Talented, good voice, amazing body and those eyes. Cam makes me swoon.

[@danmarinescu8525]

Great.Thanks Cam😅

[@kandiecandelaria3134]

Been watching him forever!

[@MrBuckaroo2014]

I actually hit pause to read the hater comments. Your replies were hilarious! Btw, I think he really meant 'doggy.' There's an industry sector for that type of furniture, in case you want to branch out. 😂

[@Ronnaferd]

"I just like projects" that really resonates with me 🤩

[@JesseJames-rq4ee]

All I can say is your neighbors will love you . Now that you're moving( No more noise and sawdust in their house Or driveways 😂 )

[@hp7093]

This guy is one of the few that is talented enough to make good$$$

[@greeneyes2256]

If we want really great Mexican style food, we go to the same place. The drive from South Salem doesn’t take that long, when the food is that good. Been watching Cam’s videos since the beginning, always look forward to a new one.

[@elmaestro35]

Great job on this interview of Cam.

[@ryanmeeker8587]

Lol I love the haters that leave comments. I think you're success with subs is barometer for how you are doing. I and some of my friends love your channel!

[@JeffFontecchio]

Another great video, thanks for sharing!

[@CallMeMabie]

And thank you for checking it out!

[@mnisou19]

love watching him and his videos

[@craigcostley4310]

Cam is awesome, his views on the beetles is of concern to me but we let that slide

[@scotthumes2633]

This was good. Thanks.

[@billvankuren3173]

Love Cam!

[@spydermag5644]

Thanks for the interview with Cam. I have been watching him for about 4 years. I find it interesting the N3 nano has been used on at least 5 channels that I watch.

[@Joestacemazjojo]

How incredible, your new shop, what you have built from ground up! Good for you man. Appreciate the videos

[@timstark3312]

My Blacktail marking knife just came in, and it's fantastic.

[@steveferguson1232]

Great story about Black Tail Studios. Justin so many people are missing out on what you do. Hearing the stories of how they got started, their life and work. They are humans like us and your channel is so refreshing. I have to admit I miss you working with April but I bet her support for you is unwavering. Keep up the stories and I’ll keep watchimg

[@CallMeMabie]

This is a great compliment to receive and I appreciate you taking the time to write it out. It inspires me to keep this train rollin!

[@siobhanvanderlinde5401]

Enjoy watching Cam just as a person as well as watching the builds.

[@Ivo_Serra]

Andy Rawls Nick Sawyer Tom Findgen Chris from third coast craftsman William Walker Jory Brigham Ben Prowell That's a list of a few incredible woodworkers that might also be interesting people to interview. Hope you can do at least one of them one day. Very good job once again!

[@gregmize01]

LOVE CAM! ALSO, I'VE ALWAYS WANTED A SHOP I COULD PLAY FETCH WITH MY DOG IN!

[@lackingtoes121]

Based on the history of the building, I would say there is definitely “room to grow”

[@sgsax]

No idea how Cam managed to stay off my radar all this time, but I've corrected that error. A great addition to the collection! Thanks for sharing!

[@DerekFromMalden]

Great Job

[@CallMeMabie]

Thanks so much, Derek!

[@LiveEnd06]

I've genuinely been watching Cam for years. I wish I could say I've been around since the begining but it was close enough! He's seriously a phenomenal woodworker, as much as he doesn't want to admit it, and even past that a great youtuber, again as much as he doesn't want to admit it. Keep up the great work Cam!

[@Stan_the_Belgian]

Time flies, also stumbled upon those vids and they are addicitive, learned a lot

[@PeterSmith-rc9ve]

Another great video guys Thank you

[@Papa_Chad]

Another good video Justin. 👌

[@CallMeMabie]

Thanks so much, dude!

[@jamesmitchell3767]

Aw man we need a build video on the new shop setup 🙏🙏🙏

[@CWdobro]

By far my favorite woodworking you tuber!! For lack of a better term, he seems like a regular Joe that you could easily have for BBQ cookout

[@richardcary978]

Excellent video!

[@CallMeMabie]

Thank you very much!

[@earlkarow1342]

It'll be great to see Cams vision for the new property and some new projects . Great video

[@philvale5724]

Hi 👋, BlackTail studio, I wish you all the success for the future, congratulations on buying a piece of property, as this is the best way to run your business is from where you live and your workshop all in one place you can control your finances a lot better, when I started working for my self, back in the 70s , all you could do was advertise in magazines, papers, word-of-mouth, which I found, was one of the best results, Congratulations blacktail studios. All the best for the future. , Phil from the moulin

[@rachelbernhard3334]

Great update, I’m cheering for you & your wife! Nice to see Riggs. Can’t wait for more on the property 💯

[@MrsGump]

I've been a Cam sub for ages, I love his videos & his projects, but his witty comments to the haters at the end of the vids are my fave part, that & his un-pc jokes n commentary. He's absolutely one of the best YTers I sub to!

[@simon_ghost_rilley252]

next "who is Mable? documentary maker "

[@einsteinbpc]

Great video. Praise to both you and cam for what you guys do, both amazing and I can’t wait to see what the future holds.

[@CallMeMabie]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@RayMrRobert]

Cam, watching you for a long time. I am in heaven watching your growth. Just awesome my friend. I pray you have the best success. 5,000 sq ft? That’s a dream come true. Blessings.

[@waterboy8999]

Hey Cam if you're here, I just want to say you are the perfect example of can do attitude. Good luck with the new workshop, I wish a could come along and help, its right up my street but unfortunately not on it! Best wishes from Scotland David

[@hansangb]

Very well done with top notch video/audio edits. And Cam's sense of humor is very underrated. His comments to some of the haters is a must read! LOL.

[@bsw051]

Cam is pretty cool guy for being in Oregon

[@MyScreenNameIsTroubledOne]

Been watching his channel for about a year now. Had no idea he was a heli colter pilot. Makes sense. Seems like he’s very intense about his work, but a jokester in his free time. Lol… love his channel. His “hater of the week” comment at the end of each video is hilarious. 💪💪😂

[@Double_Wood]

Looking forward to seeing your new place man

[@jimrosson6702]

Cam is the first wooding channel I startled watching and have watched every video he’s made love his style and a sense of humor . Great success on your new property in Congratulations. Can’t wait to see what you do with it.

[@eHex-iled]

Been watching/following Cam for a few years, really cool to see the new space coming together for him! Great video!

[@GibClark]

👍👍👍👍

[@robertzarfas9556]

Just for the record I’ve had that carne asada and it is indeed phenomenal.

[@jo_himself]

Danke!

[@CallMeMabie]

You're the best. Thank you for constantly supporting me!

[@christopherday8687]

Great inside look. Awesome vid!

[@MattMeidenbauer]

really well done documentary, and Cam seems like the best guy to know

[@chrisbender1614]

Love Cam. My whole family watches his videos now.

[@felicidade1899]

Can't wait.

[@vigilum]

Big fan of CAM new sub to Mabie...... bravo

[@CallMeMabie]

Thanks so much for the sub and following along!

[@woodworksbygrampies1284]

👍

[@shamaneslife]

Great work! So happy to see how far Cam has come and excited for the future.

[@maryolmstead3183]

Congratulations on the new space!

[@DudeSawdust]

Great doc as always. I'm surprised it took you this long to get to Cam. Can't wait to see who's next. BTW, I saw you at the Total Boat boat build competition in Komar's video. I''m curious what you were working on?

[@Everythingisgoingtobealright]

Cool.

[@thesplinteredfinger]

Another great video Justin! Cam, can’t wait to see what you are going to do with this new shop! Consider coming to Maker Camp this year, it would be great to see you there!

[@CallMeMabie]

I’m trying to get him to hit Maker Camp sooner than later!

[@susanchurch3974]

Cool

[@kingoftowns]

Please fix the outlet just below the KZbin award @ 7:46

[@user-qj9cl8yi5f]

Thanks!

[@CallMeMabie]

Hey thank you so much for the support!! That means a lot! I appreciate you

[@wholesomeengraving]

Step 1. Start out being bad. Roger that!

[@Rufio1975]

Keep making these videos! They are awesome and motivating for me to get mine going.

[@CallMeMabie]

More on the way!!

[@James-wf1wm]

First of your vids I've seen, been watching Cam for a while. Great convo and interview! Even though you aren't clearly asking the questions you get them to answer in a way that we know what you are going for. Would be fun to even see how friends and family take their KZbin 'fame' and how that has changed people as well.

[@CallMeMabie]

Thanks for watching and I appreciate your feedback!

[@theofarmmanager267]

It’s far from a criticism but I would suggest that he and his team are batter business people than woodworkers. I’ll try and explain my view. What CA builds is fine; it’s not cutting edge, it doesn’t break moulds but it’s very competent. However, to build a business base as he has in a relatively short period of time is a big achievement and he has my admiration for that. I know many woodworkers who I would say have greater skills than CA ( and much greater than I) but struggle to make ends meet. Why? Because they are excellent at woodwork but don’t have the skills or the aptitude to make that a successful business. I come to this view having been a woodworker for over 45 years and, before retirement, I was a MD of a business employing 3500 people. So,perhaps, I know something about both woodworking and business.

[@pk.finger]

You know that you made it, when Mabie calls for the interview!

[@CallMeMabie]

Hahaha I don't know if that's the case but I definitely appreciate the sentiment!

[@G.I.D.CustomWoodworks]

Cam is the goat!

[@wittworks]

I’ll have to check this cam guy out …

[@ukr4ever]

Blacktail Studio is an amazing interesting and entertaining channel :)

[@jamescole1786]

9/3/23; congrats on acquiring 14 acres & an old wood structure needing... lots of...creative content for many YT videos far into future retirement.👍🪚🔨🍷😊 Stay safe & carry on!💪

[@robertwhitehand3692]

I fully expect to see tube content on the renovation of you new drug lab, ah oops, your new work shop. I enjoyed the video, but…… you didn’t introduce the dog! If your ever in Australia, I’ll buy you a beer

[@GrampiesCorner]

I as well have been one of his early followers!! I love his content as well as Cam!! His wife is an extremely women, as Cam has something about him that makes him sexy as hell!!

[@user-kg5en9wk7t]

Cam is THE SHIT

[@rickcimino743]

none of my business but I am curious.....how did you get him to do this video?

[@CallMeMabie]

We’ve known each other for a while and were both mutually down to make it happen 🤘🏻

[@robertzarfas9556]

Oregon is well known for our high end drug labs 😂

[@guysk8r1717]

The fact he thinks Marijuana comes with needle use scares me.

[@TheTreedodger]

Marijuana is legal in Oregon.

[@ktstudebaker]

Your job IS a “real” job! I know it’s a ton of work lol. Just bc you mostly like it doesn’t make it not a real job 😂

[@michellesmith3516]

I really wish he would do those think out of the box video’s. It shows his vulnerability and transparency. I love watching him create anything because I honestly have no clue to woodworking. 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
