DIY #5 | Mid-Century Modern Lounge Chair

[@ibceej]

Now I understand why I’m spending $1000 for that chair.

[@MichaelAWhatchaGottaSay]

If you got that for $1000, that’s a steal!

[@pepegalego]

Most stuff is mass produced to drive down costs. You wouldn't get a hand-made chair for 1,000 these days...unless it's badly made.

[@yuchenliu8769]

@@MichaelAWhatchaGottaSay In the UK, yes, it costs around 1000

[@Zwaags1]

Depending on the quality of the cushions, this would be $3500 USD. No doubt. And there's no way you could get this chair for $1000 in the UK. Good luck

[@willd2609]

this has to be your best cinematography and editing yet, never mind the beautiful chair. Wow.

[@AnaGBSA]

this is such an incredible, charming and beautiful build, the way you designed and worked on it made it seem as if you have 30 years of experience in woodworking, a true talent.

[@autumnwind2699]

I hope one day you show us your house with all of your "diy" furniture. Simply gorgeous

[@S7tronic]

The only problem I have with this video is I can only give it one like, beautiful work!

[@AustinEsmond]

That little brass piece in the back is just 🤌🏼

[@markdesign1354]

Wow! You're doing "wood whisperer" level work using "wood working for mere mortals" level tools !!

[@robslifting4life]

The woodwhisperer is a joke.

[@humancorrector-473]

cant say that those are mere mortal tools, but can be thone with those. if it was done withoud festool domino doesnt mean that those tools are for "mere mortals" :) for example this bosch router price from 700 usd or above

[@MrSatchelpack]

@@robslifting4life Why?

[@McFlysGarage]

HumanCorrector - That router does not cost $700.....

[@rm709]

HumanCorrector - that Bosch router is $350 at any Big box store in the US and online....

[@gavinkitchen581]

The craftsmanship of this chair, as well as this video, is extremely impressive. You just got my vote!

[@tylerbrooks5545]

i have never fell in love with a chair before, but my breath was taken. I'm not lying when i say i teared up! Thank you !

[@Ride1098]

Your taste in chairs and jazz is exquisite. 😊

[@irritablearchitect]

Always worth the extra effort in the end. BTW, I LOVE your taste in music, and I don't even consider myself much of a fan of jazz, however, the pieces you pick are consistently outstanding.

[@lemon_boy577]

do you use elevators to listen to music

[@altaydogahan342]

@@lemon_boy577 loll the disrespect

[@phialinfernandez8387]

Wowan, Woman, Woman ---More detailed than a man's inventions. Of course, it would be an excellent creation. Perfect! My style, my chair, my music. I love you already.

[@exalmed]

Am Speechless! Can somebody makes furniture like this!!! Awestruck!

[@nespiritu09]

I was like OMG she is going to do loose tenons without a domino! Love the video.

[@McFlysGarage]

I was thinking “this calls for a super expensive Festool domino tool” Oh wait...niceeeeee

[@drewsimms]

Most calming thing I have watched in a long time. Great video

[@chuckbogart9382]

Absolutely wonderful. From the woodworking, the music, the pacing. Everything first rate.

[@shoshinwoodworking459]

Just wow. The craftsmanship, attention to detail, design aesthetic, everything. Just wow!

[@tristesskartoffel8677]

I like people that build things with love! High Craftsmanship 👍

[@danfarbecker2441]

You could teach David J Marks a thing or two :). Seriously, the chair is simply amazing. The videography matches the elegance of your design.

[@stephanemaciejewski7861]

there is the art of sitting down, but there ..... we sit down on art. magnificent

[@TannerChung]

I keep coming back to this every month since a few years ago! future goals. Just started my woodworking journey this year :D

[@johnwhitley2898]

Beautiful pair of chairs! Excellent design as they look rather comfy......(might need a matching foot stool video.......LOL!!)

[@rmacdonald286]

A perfect woodworking video. No talking, the music was subtle and didn't intrude, the camera work was excellent. Thanks for this! What beautiful chairs!

[@crabolsky]

Awesome video for those that like power tool noise mixed with their jazz. Fortunately I do like!

[@deejohnson5163]

Everything you touch is beautiful. Still adore the t.v. stand you made.

[@robbswain]

INCREDIBLE design, attention to detail, music choice, and just WOW.... also loved the DIY domino router.

[@jgarard111482]

Very impressive!! Beautiful design and finish. People who give you a thumbs down are a special kind of person...

[@tagwagley1864]

I’ve been restoring MCM lounge chairs for a couple months now and this video is just beautiful. I love seeing these chairs designed and built. I love your use of Brass, and also how you don’t hide the woods natural grain! Every single time I restore a piece it feels like the original grain is hidden behind cheap toner, I even made my own method to make it pop out! You on the other hand do an amazing job with wood choice and also your finish process!

[@0oYCRo0]

Oh wow! This is perfection. Your house must have a collection of amazing furniture- a dream come true.

[@philanintuli817]

This is not woodworking....this is art 😍😍😍

[@JazonHart]

There’s so much skill on display! The design, the woodworking, the camera, editing, lighting, and music! Awe inspiring stuff!

[@BangBangNinerGang415]

The tapering jig is cool. Another stunning piece. Bravo.

[@Landruman2002]

This chair is spectacular. ( and the soundtrack i fell in love with.)

[@richardbullock2113]

A-maz-ing... So chilled after watching and listening to this superb video of you making a beautiful chair. Inspirational, if only I had a bigger garage!

[@priscillaberger7055]

Great job, Jenn! My hubby introduced your mid-century modern cabinet video to me and I'm hooked! U inspired me wanting to try woodworking too! Kudos on your works including filming, editing, music (love jazz especially the kind u pick), plus your cooking as well (love Korean food)! Just amazing!! Keep up the good work and look forward to your next masterpiece!👍👍👏 👏

[@jennsmistake]

Thanks❤️

[@shayanibrahim4127]

Hey jenns, I just want to say thank you for making these videos, I really hope you continue and grow, I will definitely keep an eye for your future creations.

[@BillWomack]

Wow, the chairs came out gorgeous! Of anything we can build, chairs frighten me the most because of the engineering involved. You make it look, if not simple, then at least doable. Very well done!

[@innmortal1]

Awesome work (it’s like play music over the wood) & perfect video edition, you must be proud twice. Congratulations!!!

[@elpepelucho]

I find your videos to be a great way to unwind right before bed, as relaxing as a gurgling brook.

[@infinitelyexhausted]

Please keep making more of these videos - that was inspiring to watch!

[@infinitelyexhausted]

Can I just ask - where did you learn to woodwork? What resources have you used to learn etc?

[@SLEE914]

This is exactly what I needed to see in my feed after a stressful day

[@mycustompaintedlife502]

This makes me stress more because I just KNOW that I have absolutely no chance whatsoever of making anything like it! I don’t even have a single one of your tools or the room to put it

[@dongbang9pae]

와우 ~~ 정말 멋들어진 의자. 비슷하게라도 따라 만들고 싶지만 시작할 엄두가 안날 정도로 정교하군요.

[@ThirdPlanetStudio]

Wow, everything about this is amazing! The shots, the lighting, the workmanship, the design, the music... I loved this!! Thank you so much!!

[@ecoBearDen]

Just wow! Beautiful craftsmanship, chairs, jigs, music and cinematography. So many techniques displayed. I have a long way to go but just know that you have inspired this old man.

[@Aoudhubillahi]

Great vid. Great skills. Great Jazz selection. Just an outstanding presentation. Continued peace.

[@clawrence034]

I'm speechless. Have you been watching tally ho? I noticed they did the same recesses around the joints on their deck beams. Those little details make your chairs really special.

[@crenshawshank]

I'm so happy I found this channel. Please keep making videos! Everything about their aesthetic and quality is perfect.

[@calvin2681]

Absolutely love everything, the two-tone colors of woods, brass cylinder accent, and wonderful music! and Jenn! Always calming as a beautiful autumn.

[@eighth08]

I've been drawing and redrawing designs for a lounge chair of my own when I stumbled across your video. It is a really good design you have and the video is very inspiring. You gave given me a few new ideas for my own design. Thank you.

[@Triplecherry]

Wow my mind is so blown. I just got into furniture restoration and this video came up in my algorithm AND I AINT MAD.

[@loudqa]

OMG! this was your first chair? you're a pro man! Watching you build that chair make me wanna do DIY projects with you😅

[@BeckiandChris]

Oh wow everything about this was perfection! 😍

[@Animatedron]

That's bloody beautiful. Excellent craftsmanship. 👌

[@jacobsherf6572]

Best furniture design on YT. You should post affiliate links for your tools to get some $$$

[@yusufbilge3415]

Probably my first comment on youtube. This is wat youtube should be. Quality videos. The chair makes me think of giorgetti furniture.

[@peepawhebert6479]

The project was tastefully designed, and well executed. The music was great and volume level was perfect to hear the work being done. Overall, well done!

[@mutchmedia]

Beautiful chair, crafting, design and documenting. So well done. Thank you.

[@jackknows6509]

You make it look so easy. I now it isn't, but your methods work well. Thanks

[@sanchezryno]

LOVED this video. It's so soothing and informative! I especially love as your hands come into frame and slowly almost as if you're unsure and pull away the next portion of the build. I found it very funny. Not sure if that was your intentions but it was. Thanks for this video!!

[@bradlyf]

Digging the metal rods. Nice work. Do you a video of your router domino jig?

[@brandonk5932]

This was super therapeutic. You are immensely talented.

[@AlandelMundo1003]

This was an excellent video in all ways of production. Your joinery and design is so well done. Can’t wait for more.

[@TheSmartodd]

Beeutiful. I'm not usually a fan of mid century furniture, but the subtle, smooth curves really works well. Thanks for posting.

[@hellakitty2]

Wowsa! Would love to learn about how you started woodworking and the training you have undergone. I could go on and on! Thank you for making these videos.

[@kavehs2548]

I loved the idea of your home made domino router

[@thespacesbetweenstudio3346]

where are all these people finding perfect cushions that fit their home made chairs? ha ha. Nice work!

[@SGDrummer7]

The Spaces Between Studio I think the idea is to do it the other way around. Find a cushion you want to use and design the chair to fit it.

[@juliatrykacz8932]

Sean G Or make your own cushions 😊

[@kencutrer8052]

So I recently paid about $800 for a similar chair with not nearly that high of quality. What a great talent you are.

[@zenesis2k]

Outstanding ! Beautiful Work ! 👍👍👍👍👍

[@7R15M3G1]

Nice way to get around buying a festool!

[@BigfootLives19]

The fact that April Wilkerson has 1.2 million subscribers and you have 44 thousand is a joke! You are infinitely better in every way! I’m so glad I came upon your channel. Your skill level is off the charts and I love your approach to making videos. I wish you nothing but success. Keep up the tremendous work.

[@hinduspl]

Look at the amount of videos. Only regular uploading of new content give you bigger audience. Sad but true.

[@dayv1d0]

That was incredible. A masterclass in stylish woodwork!

[@phunphil00]

The only problem I had with this video is that it ended. Amazing work!

[@Hal-el7cy]

How beautiful. Such focus.

[@tylercaton6145]

after watching the patriot, i've always been afraid to make chairs. i've always wanted this mid century lounger - now i think i'll give it a shot. incredible video!

[@danielhanawalt4998]

If you were looking for bragging rights, you found them. But what? No screws? Good precise joinery and glue? What did they use before screws? Good precise joinery. And it worked. And lasted. Above my skill level. For now. Enjoyed the relaxing made me sleepy music. Of course it's about the time I call it a day so...Nice work and video.

[@davidwilson990]

Awesome craftsmanship, music and video work! You’ve motivated me to give a try at making chairs now. 👍

[@NickTree90]

Excellent job! Very soothing to watch too. Inspirational all around.

[@SamFuller1989]

I don't know why it's taken me this long to find your channel, but holy crap is this chair beautiful! It's easy to see how thoughtfully you produce each piece, I cant wait to see more!
