Not only did this guy make a chair for the first time on a huge time crunch, he also did it while recording and filming to make this into a 30-minute video, AND the chair looks great too. Literally incredible, I doubt many people could produce a similar outcome (especially with the fact a woodshop wasn't used!)

[@mobyhuge]

Bro the filming part is not that hard

[@jamesoniris2647]

@@mobyhuge I would love to see you film a video like this under a deadline. If it’s so easy- make one.

The amount of effort you put into your editing does not go unnoticed. Your editing is beautiful.

[@fishbarbeque8540]

The editing in this video is world class tier, INSANE editing, and yeah the chair is SICK.

There's a reason the left arm "fell off"

Good to see you again

You are so cool, your sense of art and creativity shines through in your editing! Keep it up!

I’m really happy to see a new video, I’m learning from you to really dive into details

[@Ideal_Idea]

Genuinely extremely happy to hear that. Details is where all the fun is

[@maximroabes9740]

@@Ideal_Ideamy personal idea it’s to make a floating desk (L shape)

[@maximroabes9740]

I have a 3d model of it. If you can take a look at it

[@ThePlatinumFox]

Give this guy a real workshop, lean back and see him take over the world! A result like this, clearly with limited space, stuff from the kitchen cabinets and powertools that look like they were born in the 80´s, is pretty damn impressive!

[@kiwigurn]

A good prototype, would love to see a V2

[@Templar-Chan]

this is the most top tier editing ever

[@kiradurbin480]

Honestly, it's a really nice chair. As someone who has done a lot of upholstery, I was screaming to cover the chair before mounting it on the frame but you did not hear me lol The fabric makes it look a little off, but the chair itself is extremely impressive, especially with the lack of tools and work space. I actually love the modified design more than your original, it looks so sleek! Overall, gorgeous build, and it was very fun watching you! New subscriber for sure.

[@dodsg]

It's a fantastic looking chair (if you kind of squint when you look at the fabric). I'm very tempted to go with that style for my own office chair. I hadn't even thought of using my laser cutter for something like this.

[@gabrieldinix]

Man, you’re a true artist! You made a chair (manual skills), used multiple 3D softwares, used many drawing programs (from what I could tell, procreate on iPad, photoshop on the computer), learned to sew, shot the whole video (even doing artistic angles like the one where there’s sawdust falling on the camera), and even edited it wonderfully! Amazing job, subscribed

[@maximusjet5412]

holy crap, the editing is insane, this is million sub-worth production value! I honestly love this, it's like a more chilled out michael reeves, and I am here for it!

every time I see one of your videos it gives motivation to go and work on my own projects and videos. then I remember that its late at night, I need to go to sleep, and I have homework to do for tommorow. hopefully I will still have that motivation tommorow. great video though! cant wait for the next one!

Awesome sauce Btw, fire transitions

The design is pretty good IMO. You should definitely pursue it further I think. With a custom 'stand' for the wheels and new fabric it could look really rad. graet video as always-

Well done man, great little project that actually looked like it involved a heck of a lot of learning and it’s always scary working to solid deadlines like that of the competition! As someone else said - you’re juggling all that with actually producing a quality 30 minute video. Very entertaining - thanks!

The editing was amazing, and the chair looks super cool too!

Epic video! Awesome editting with a lot of humor

[@Blackfirelife]

Your videos are absolutely amazing, keep going!

[@notme222]

I think the best design is when the back support goes directly into the base, rather than both connecting through the seat. But that's a limit of the hardware you have available.

[@RitoKenden]

Hey really enjoyed the video, loved the editing and the comedic commentary. Glad I stumbled across the channel.

[@trashman7072]

thats what I've been waiting for

[@makeandcode]

what a great day ideal idea posted a video

[@dragade101]

@2:49, ways to measure the angles: 0) Bolt/pin a straight edge that will now be your reference for horizontal. Buy/make/borrow an angle finder. Thicker is better so you can reach both surfaces (of the horizontal straight edge and the chair’s support). 1) You could also do some trig by measuring the triangle that the two supports are part of. CAD (cardboard added design) will be your friend here. Again I would reference those holes by bolting or pinning your CAD model to the chair. Either you have protractor or can use trig to find the angles.

[@AttemptedMaker]

Now that's the sort of deadline I would absolutely crumble under. Beautiful chair, great story.

[@SenselessUsername]

For that dowel-connection at 5:10--5:15--, I recently learned of a glueless way there --- the dowel is a harder wood and drier than ambient, and barely passing; it gets wedged in and swells to keep hold. This way environmentally friendly, safer-for-the-worried-and-affluent-well, wood panels get made in Germany.

[@Razoth0815]

[@matthewlister1042]

[@NiksSofa]

Did you consider turning the fork that holds the back rest around, and mounting the "arms" to the bottom of the chair and the plate to the backrest? It looks like there would have been enough space between the arms to fit the foot of the char between.

[@Ideal_Idea]

Cant say I ever thought to try turning it around, could have been another solution.

[@NiksSofa]

@@Ideal_Idea Happens when you spend too much time with your project and don't have people around that ask annoying questions :D

[@saravananjeeva5258]

love the editing

[@pufthemajicdragon]

That chair looks really great, actually. Yes it has flaws and clearly shows it was done by a beginner - but a beginner *builder*, not a beginner *designer*. The maple veneer is fine, but I actually think the sanded plywood would have looked great. I mean, you'd want to do it all over from scratch so you didn't have all of the extra seams from the multiple redesigns, but I like the idea of showing off the lasercut plywood as a feature. I know from experience that as frustrating as much of this build was that the last thing you want to think about now is chair, but a version 2 integrating all of your new knowledge and skill would be amazing. Maybe enter the competition again next year?

[@Ideal_Idea]

One of the original ideas was to keep the plywood edge like you mention and I think that it would have looked nice but when I rotated it to construct it I didn't like the idea as much, if there was a way to keep all the grain together I think it would been better. I definitely want to try another competition now

[@OneTrueCat]

11:00 To be quite honest, that's the only way to install threaded inserts if you're not using absurdly high grade forged stainless ones. I don't think I've ever made a piece using them where at least one didn't break if I tried to put them in with whatever drive type they came with.

[@znoppen]

[@Zortan12]

Highest quality, as usual.

[@stefanguiton]

Excellent

[@dragonslayergeorge898]

Out of everything you've mentioned, I still can't understand why there's been no note on why you didn't have the body and frame separatable, so that you could just stitch the fabric directly onto it, then have inset screws to make it detachable? All in all it's very cool, and really an amazing effort. Let's see a chair v2 with more improvements!

[@joritos21]

The real prize was the subscribers we made along the way 🤣

[@Mitch3D]

I think this video shows how optimized chair production has become. Designing a chair is so deceptively difficult, that's why we have design competitions like this. Also if you're in the midwest, I have access to a woodshop and CNC if you ever need parts made?

[@miachristensen5444]

i loooove ur videos so much:))

[@tomerabitbuleizen4992]

you should have made all the joints from metal and then just add covers with the wood after the fabric that would have been easier and looked a lot better either way i really enjoyed the video

No criticism but what happened to the arm-rests? Nice work the chair looks good 👍

[@Ideal_Idea]

It is in the final notes at the end but essentially I don't really use armrests so I was going back and forth on if I should make them and I just ran out of time to complete them so it made my choice for me. I think it would look better to have made them.
