Nice vid and setup Alex. Love the style and your presentation and camera presence are on point!

[@BevelishCreations]

Oh man thanks so much Brad!

[@WoodWorkLIFE]

Alex dude, what a video on such a simple project. I love it.

[@BevelishCreations]

Thanks! :D

[@MatthewEncina]

Great idea. I'm curious, how has this held up over time- specifically with heat? I know these docks and drives tend to generate a ton of heat once in use and wonder if stacking them like this could potentially damage them or if the heat syncs built-in are enough?

[@BevelishCreations]

Hey great question. I actually have not had any overheating issues at all, and I use this for hours everyday. I was thinking of cutting some slots to the sides of the holders for the dock if it became hot, but it hasn’t been an issue. By the way, I’m a huge fan of your content :D

[@MatthewEncina]

@@BevelishCreations thanks for sharing your experience, as I’m looking for under desk mounting options for my dock as well. Thanks for the compliment. New sub here.

First time viewer, and im at 3:43 at this point in the video. Im hooked. Im sitting through this one, love the production and everything as well as the humor. Then the iPad comes out and I'm like, this is something I could pickup rather quickly, oh theres tutorials, subbed. now back to the rest of this video and some tutorials/catching up to do

Wow! Super clean workmanship.

Dude knew I was new and was wondering about what app he’s using. Subbed!

[@jefgirdler7232]

Anyone else SUPREMELY impressed that the desk is able to keep raising with a person asleep on top of it? That was hilarious.

Got me too! Jaw was on the table lol. Immediately liked the video.

I love the panning shots while cutting!

You're the ultimate content creator. You integrate woodworking and technology so well. You've inspired a lot of new projects. Keep up the great videos.

[@BevelishCreations]

Thanks! That’s what I’m trying to do more of :)

[@andyfarmer759]

Pat on the back, nice job. I always look forward to your videos and the little humorous touches. It can be easy to forget sometimes that woodworking is supposed to be fun.

[@BevelishCreations]

For sure! Best way to avoid burnout is to make it fun :D

[@andyfarmer759]

@@BevelishCreations it is easy to get get stressed when jobs are mounting up, especially when family start asking when are you going to finish so or so for me. I do have a response to that though, I nip to my favorite tool store and tax my credit card. Super hobby if you like spending money friveously. Thanks for the reminder of the lighter side.

I really enjoy your channel. You are clear and precise. Your music choice is nice as well

[@Lessk69]

Cool footage and excellent presentation. Not your average country DIY content. I appreciate the extra effort to get that B-roll and setup for different shots. It makes a build like this take a lot longer than it otherwise would.

[@BevelishCreations]

Thanks :)

[@percent20net]

Great video as usual. What you designed or the laptop is really similar to what I have been playing with in my but better. I hadn't thought about the channel to slide the mac into the holder. I was going to cut out a whole and then plug stuff in through it. However, if I need to pull the mac out quickly for something I haven't unplug everything which isn't ideal. You solved my last speed bump to doing the project. Thank you.

[@BevelishCreations]

Nice! What u said was actually what I thought of doing at first too. But I was worried about pulling the laptop out in a hurry and forgot to unplug those peripherals, and end up shearing the plugs. This worked really well

Hey Alex, I’m also wanting to do exactly that! Well the laptop part only. I have a 2021 MacBook Pro 16 inch that I want to dock underneath my desk. Is there a way that you can design and create one for me? How much would this be etc. I have zero experience with the iPad app nor do I have the tools to accomplish this. Thanks again for your time!

[@BevelishCreations]

Thanks! You might be disappointed because this was the first time I did this style of video haha. I plan to stick to this style and do more in the future though!

[@andy_warb]

@@BevelishCreations I watched a few, they're really good! (but this one was definitely slicker!).

[@woogaloo]

Not first! But that's a very cool and simple design. I like the idea of putting it under the desk. I could probably utilize the same idea and do this with my M1 Mac Mini. Minimalism at its best. :)

[@BevelishCreations]

Yeah I was thinking the same when I saw someone with a Mac Mini the other day. Do you know how well it performs compared to a 16" Macbook Pro? I'm editing a lot more in 4K now, and have to convert 120fps 4K footage to proxies to edit smooth enough. Was wondering if there's a significant improvement with the M1 Mac Mini

[@woogaloo]

@@BevelishCreations - I'll be honest - I don't do any type of editing on mine, but the M1 is leaps and bounds ahead of what any of the Intel stuff was. I had a 3.2ghz i7 processor in my iMac w/ 32GB RAM and it doesn't even hold a candle to my 16GB M1 Mini. Depending on what program you use - most of the normally used one (Final Cut Pro and the like) are already optimized for the M1. I watched way too many videos before buying mine and most folks did 7-10min 4K video exports in 9 minutes or so.

[@BevelishCreations]

@@woogaloo oh man haha I am going to look into this then. Thanks!

[@woogaloo]

@@BevelishCreations - I've been using mine for a little over a month now and I couldn't go back! It's so smooth and fast. I play FFXIV some when not playing my switch and I get around 45FPS while playing a 4K video/movie on my other monitor. I think the 16GB version is worth the extra $$ in the long run.

[@BevelishCreations]

Niiice! Thanks for the info
