[@MrGibbie2210]

Stunning, pure outstanding craftsmanship. ... not a plan in sight, not a word spoken, no fancy powertools and cnc machines, just plain woodworking skills. Hats off to you man, you are the real deal Saving the forests one project at a time

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks very much :)

[@jimchik]

As for his plans… I keep hoping to see at least some sketchings on a bar napkin or something… anything. Otherwise to keep it all in his head from conception to final coat of varnish is simply genius.

[@gbwildlifeuk8269]

MrGibbie2210 - agreed 👍👍

[@jmg71276]

It is not because you don't see it that there is no plan. Good woodworkers have detailed plan to avoid mistake, it is the first thing teached when studying woodworking. In french there is a proverb in woodworker world saying more or less "Who's singing while drawing, will cry when assembling".

[@wolfparty4234]

I build like that. When you see something in your head and you basically know how’s it going to look, the math part just works itself out on its own..

[@thistles]

The Battle of the Drying Rack killed me 😂

[@SayaShinigami]

Most intense battle I've watched in my life 👌

[@MsCookiemonster0]

Who needs flowers and a dinner out for Valentines day. I would be elated if I got this for Valentines day. Your wife is very luck lady. Beautiful craftsmanship.

[@PetroicaRodinogaster264]

my thoughts exactly.

[@ernabueing4250]

What every quilter would love to have for all the different threads/colors. I can think of so many things that could go into that cupboard for quilting projects. Needles. thimbles, machine needles, bobbins and so many more things. Loved the work you do and cutting all that window glass for every little square, you are amazing and you have a very lucky wife to have you to make these things for her.

[@bradyrichardson918]

You are by far the best up-cycling woodworker on KZbin. No outrageous price tags or annoying voice overs. Just pure high quality craftsmanship

[@ebkawadler7904]

I can just hear your wife saying “ I just need something for my pins and needles “ and you come up with this masterpiece. One very lucky lady 😊

[@mdunn4555]

I know as a crafter and person who sews, the person you made this for is truly blessed. Not only is this functional is is a stunning showpiece.

[@mr.bufffarof3948]

I was speechless How can you keep making furniture and create a masterpiece in every project

[@teacheme]

I agree. It seems that every new build is better than the previous one. Those doors are incredible.

[@chrismoose64]

Ditto

[@jt9498]

My sentiments exactly! I'm always amazed at what he creates from pallet lumber!

[@dcruicks1]

And still keep your fingers 😅

[@charlz0616]

No music, no talking, just pure genius. Perfect.

[@abrei]

I love the parts in these videos where I think, "Wait a minute... what is he up to now?" And then you make something that's already awesome even more amazing. Thanks!

[@spittalmusic]

Multiple drawers, homemade mouldings, and a load of wood saved from the skip by a quiet patient wood rescuing hero. Another Epic project has landed, and made the world a slightly better place. Thank you.

[@SparrowStockwell]

She’s a quilter! What a wonderful piece of furniture you made for her. 🩷💛🩷

[@ajablonska82]

This is just outstanding work. You're not a wood worker, you're an artist. Beautiful craftsmanship.

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks very much :)

[@stevebettany8778]

Always a real pleasure and inspiration thank you

[@talking_to_trees]

Loved how you just made sure the dry rack was really dead before you stripped it of parts 😂. Absolutely love what you did. Now I am off to ask my husband why he doesn't love me... 😅😊

[@cabman86]

My wife came up behind me and said, "Ooh! Build me one!" I'm in trouble now!

[@thistles]

I think I commented on another vid of yours that if you have a son, he’s incredibly lucky. The same is true for your wife!

[@henridejong2013]

Let's face it... The thumbnail says it all. 👍💯👍

[@judihopewell2499]

What a blessed woman has a man like this. We are all jealous…

[@chayacuevascohen2219]

This cabinet represents true craftsmanship. This man possesses amazing skills and you can tell how much he loves to work with wood.

[@chayacuevascohen2219]

👍🏽

[@BadlandsGecko]

Epic! Most folk would have put a design over a single pane of glass, you cut little squares and rectangles of glass to fill in the design. Your wife is a very lucky woman!

[@damogranheart5521]

Any sewer/quilter would be truly blown away by a gift like this! I'd probably cry 😂my face off. It is so very beautiful and so well thought out! I stand all amazed!😮

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks very much :)

[@damogranheart5521]

@EpicUpCycling May the coming Holiday Season bring joy to you and your bride!

[@wolfparty4234]

Maaan!! If had made that for my mother or wife back in my day, I think I’d still be married and invited over for supper on weekends at moms house..!😂🙏🏻❤️ Beautiful piece Sir!

[@gedreillyhomestead6926]

Hi Jason, your skills with wood, metal and glass are at a level that are so far above most KZbinrs as being called 'epic' is an understatement. You really are showing the rest of us what can be achieved by re-using scrap materials. Yet another beautiful piece. It looks like Mrs epic is also skilled, maybe a collaborative work in the future.🤔 👍🏻

[@carolbuzelim]

Wow even the glass is recycled, thats awesome. Nice of you do something for your wife

[@rhondakennedy819]

The cabinet is a work of art!!! I wish he lived by me. I would have the craft room of my dreams. Be kind to each other. Stay safe. Love to all

[@juliaslife565]

Sooo beautiful... Your wife lucky, having a husband with golden hands is happiness❤

[@carollsbostwick9683]

Now your titles expand to include glazier, as well as a machinist, woodworker, expert carver of metal and wood. You are just amazingly gifted.

[@melissataylor5494]

Your wife must be thrilled. This is a work of art and a family treasure. Are you interested in adding new family members? 😂 thanks for letting us watch the build. Totally enchanting. Happy Thanksgiving.

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks very much. Happy Thanksgiving :)

[@bernardmcmahon7434]

I really cannot let my wife see this video ha ha. She has wanted something like this a long time but cannot find one to suit her. I tried to find an old cabinet to refit, poor woman thinks I can do anything. Looking at this masterpiece, I doubt myself, ha ha. Thanks again for sharing your skills with us.

[@peternicholsonu6090]

I’ve been woodworking since the carpenters at grade 1 of my school gave us all the offcuts pine bucket of nails and hammer each. I well remember sorting the off cuts for 3 pieces same dimension. I carefully crafted a stool whilst others just banged nails about....that was 1953. In my shed now ( shed I built beside the house I built) are 2 caravans (camper trailers). 1 is all but done and the other almost. One aluminium Airstream copy the other Pino 2010 copy I built onto the trailer I made years ago. This Christmas I’ll take one of them up or down the coast (Australia Qld) with a for sale sign. Then take the other n do same they are built as weekenders or coffee kiosks. Why am I telling you all this? Because men like this inspire me. Give me reason to keep trying. Your workshop is so clean and tidy...mine is not. I have multiple measures sic cos I keep losing them. I am unable to make what you have done here. Hey, I’m only 76 so got another 20yrs or so to learn....after I start and finish a special camper trailer that is already in my mind. Please keep inspiring us...I plan on living way beyond a 100yrs maybe a 1000 so I’ve got the time....

[@josefinematildehansenvonki2384]

I would like to see some "behind the camera" like cleaning up or how you find the scrap wood and so on❤

[@annglowacki7475]

Bet your first shop birdhouse looked like a mansion complete with porches, shingled roof and fine details above the door!

[@chrismoose64]

This was beyond brilliant. I'd be honoured just sweeping up after you 😆

[@denisemorrison7616]

Your wife definitely has bragging rights. That is absolutely, phenomenal. Well done.

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks very much :)

[@user-wh5co5go9j]

O.M.G. There are no words to describe just how absolutely beautiful that craft storage cupboard is. All the hours and love you put into this one piece you wife will use it for many years to come

[@donniewillis2926]

I have come to love the simple, yet elegantly thought-out details of your woodworking. I also have come to be inspired by how you look at many things society has deemed trash, but with your craftsman's eyes, you see value & beauty in it. I am trying to do much more of this because of you albeit nowhere at your level. The blending of hand tools and modern machinery is fascinating and much appreciated. Lastly, your approach to how you work and the steady even speed is so underrated, so many channels are only about the finished thing. The joy you obviously have is well worth the journey! Don't ever lose your love of what you do here! By ANY MEASURE, you sir are a MASTER at your craft!

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks very much, Donnie :)

[@tnmcru2153]

Somebody is an overachiever... LOL But seriously - looks great.

[@DrPsyc71]

Jason, this is fabulous. I'm sure your wife is thrilled with all of your work, but, yeah, as a craftaholic myself, I see the appeal of this one!

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks. My wife really likes this project :)

[@prute62]

WOW, perfect craftmanship from start to finish

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks :)

[@SayaShinigami]

The amount of patience and love that went into this! My goodness! Absolutely stunning!!

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks very much :)

[@cayjadoobirsingh2519]

Oh mercy I am so jealous! My sewing room is a disaster! Your wife is very blessed! ❤

[@michaelpuritz4514]

One can only marvel in awe. We all know that Obelix fell into the potion cauldron as a child and has been incredibly strong ever since. You must have fallen into a cauldron of magic potion as a child and have had this incredible talent and skill ever since. There is no other way to explain it. I wouldn't even come up with the idea for such a work of art. ❤

[@cleopatracatra2097]

You're absolutely correct in calling this a work of art!

[@VeganAtheistWeirdo]

I love that your work highlights the true meaning of "quality." It's not necessarily about the base materials, or the tools employed. Everything you do has the ultimate attention to functionality, thoughtful design, and careful finishing. Most of us could probably never afford what your work should be worth. Thanks as always for sharing.

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks very much :)

[@manonmassari7771]

Wow....that is one very lucky wife. I'm quite green with envy.

[@valerietenaglia4887]

Now you have his and hers work benches made with true love and talent.

[@NavyCopMA1]

And, as usual, the finished product does not disappoint!

[@jonathangreenwood793]

Absolutely fantastic. Loving the doors - very Mackintosh. Great to see a shooting board in use. Mrs Epic is a very lucky lady to have this made for her. Brilliant and inspiring as ever.

[@ImpyChan]

I was fine, just regular impressed, up until you started working on the doors. Then I started being SUPER impressed about how much you love your wife. That is the best thread and findings cabinet I've ever seen.

[@Elin.Noller]

The Stephen King of scraps

[@gods_soldier971]

Every project is jaw dropping. You have an unbelievable God given talent sir. God Bless

[@eightzerofour9957]

Your work is the literal definition of art and precision, every video is an inspiration.

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks very much :)

[@debbipriz]

You seriously gave that collapsable metal rack it's comeuppance! This is the first of your videos I have watched, and I am now a new subscriber eager to get caught up on your previous work and looking forward to your next project. The way you repurpose and recycle what many would consider trash and useless is inspiring, and your work is nothing short of art. Thank you. Oh, and wonderful ASMR!

[@rachelunderwood4868]

I'm still jealous of the sewing box you made a couple of years ago, and now I have to start hankering over entire furniture pieces?!?

[@JuJuBerry75]

Oh, WOW!!! I was super impressed with the cabinet already - then you got to the door panels. AMAZING! I know you were working with scraps you had on-hand, but something similar, using stained glass, would be breathtaking.

[@huskytail]

We need more arts and crafts furniture created! Excellent 😍

[@pebblesthecat3625]

No wonder you're wife likes this - the whole thing is just so beautiful, it's simply stunning. The detail and craftsmanship are second to none. You really do spoil us with these videos - is there anything you can't do ? Once again a remarkable piece of woodworking and an excellent video for us all to enjoy and drool over.

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks very much :)

[@lauristandley4359]

Your wife is one lucky lady!!

[@angelalai1409]

Incredible and amazing!!! You always turn trash to treasure 👍👍

[@bnhietala]

I don't blame her! This is the arts/crafts supply cabinet of any craft artist's dreams! What a lucky lady! Also, your epic battle with the metal drying rack was hysterical! Sometimes I'd swear those things are inhabited by the vengeful spirits of the "darned". I bet it felt so good to clip that thing into little bitty pieces!

[@groreistad5234]

I tried to find fitting words to express my admiration. I couldn’t.

[@kellykitchell9534]

A true labor of love that will withstand time well after we are all gone. Fascinating an beautiful.

[@Suzieq5446]

I look forward to your designs.

[@astridgarcia888]

My admiration Sir and congratulations to your wife!

[@jenxu2]

Absolutely stunning! You are one blessed wife. 🤩

[@deeringkendrick8388]

He needs to be signing these pieces.

[@tezthornton8770]

Mrs Epic is a very lucky lady to have a very clever hubby, I just designed my raft area at Ikea. Hand made is so much nicer.

[@talbech]

I am simply blown away by your craftmanship every time I watch your videos.

[@thewol7534]

Every time you use your wooden mallet with the carved knotwork, it makes me smile. Any idiot can fit a block of wood on a stick and hit stuff with it. So easy to spot a true craftsman. Continue to tap with elegance and style, Mr. Epic. What too many folks don't seem to realize is that before you can actually set about making something, you have to figure out HOW to make it. That's the part that separates the men from the boys.

[@dbljdblc]

Dammit man. I get so immersed in your videos that I find myself wanting to blow dust off of your projects 😂

[@peterisemann2299]

I have now gone through all the videos of you and I have to say, I also build a lot and thought I was creative and have imagination, but your projects take the whole thing to other heights. Building these projects with the simplest means is already fierce and ingenious. I would like you to have plans to download for some of the projects, of course not for nothing. Otherwise, keep it up, it's just incredible what you're building.

[@susannah4Him]

This creation is spectacular! Any craftsperson would be thrilled with the thought and detail you put into this. How you must love your wife!

[@robynw6307]

Your wife is one lucky lady. Stunningly beautiful.

[@johnphilippatos]

There is no such thing as scrap wood for a craftsman of your skill. Kudos.

[@pamelacain2541]

Wow.....every household needs one of these. Beautiful work, thank you for sharing.

[@ej558]

i agree Every household deserves a Jason!!!! lol

[@dannraff]

Simply amazing nobody does it better.

[@nmbr6kid]

Such attention to detail and focus on quality. I’m wowed so much by this gift of love for your wife. AMAZING 😍

[@greatboniwanker]

Your wife is a lucky woman!

[@Shae_Sandybanks]

That is so beautiful! Loved the doors! And the added roundover for the swivel doors was cool!

[@mandyleeson1]

Love the way your mind works Jason, and think you've gone up another level for Mrs. Epic. The pivot drawers, the intricate glass panels and the recalcitrant clothes horse. Genius.

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks Mandy :)

[@SMcCaskill]

I'm very sure that Mrs Epic is quite the happy lady now! What an awesome piece!

[@lyndacarter4586]

In the words of the late John Denver, this is farrr-out! Your patience, your planning… now, are you a whiz with the fabric medium, too? Another piece to be proud of 😊.

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks very much, Lynda :)

[@debgamble8368]

I have furniture envy now. Just awesome. Functional and beautiful 💕💕

[@TonyT-lo2sz]

I never get tired watching you make great creations. You are very creative. Best part all work no talking.

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks very much :)

[@paulpalmer9970]

I think we all agree, you take carpentry to the next level, i say again i wish I had half the skill you have,i would be a very happy chappie,well done once again.

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks Paul :)

[@jeanniedreemer1944]

I would really like to know where you came from? I was married to a master carpenter and never saw the likes of this work. This is way beyond a sewers dream and I am just sitting here watching here watching with my jaw hanging opened. I don’t have adequate words to say my amazement. Thank you for sharing all of this with us.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@sarahjoyce5041]

Well you did it again. I'm never disappointed when I watch your videos. The detail and craftsmanship that you bring to each piece is stunning. Thanks again for share it with us

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks very much :)

[@swirlgalaxy]

Howdy Maestro!! Totally ingenius Jason!!! Love how you did the doors, mission Or arts & crafts style if I remember correctly! Simply stunning as always!! Hugs from Kenny Ohio USA!!!!!!

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks Kenny, glad you enjoyed it. It was a lot of fun to build :)

[@carlogle6207]

My favorite part of your videos is the squeeze out from knocking the wedges in. Cool vid, brother!

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks :)

[@MelbourneMaker]

Your ability to create beauty in combination with function is an artform. Thankyou for sharing your talent and giving me ideas on how to improve.

[@DinneratDorsia]

Lo de este hombre no es normal, es un genio absoluto, un artesano único!

[@michaelpuritz4514]

Tienes toda la razón. Uno sólo puede maravillarse con asombro.

[@bobbi4122]

Stunning and beautiful a true master at work

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks very much :)

[@masassin58]

This is gorgeous! It's perfect for crafters, sewers and so many others. I would want at least two of them.

[@An_Eclectic_Mind]

Thank you. This brought so many memories back of watching my mother before she passed. I would sit and just watch silently as she would make these wonderful treasures with no nails. Just chisels, a saw, different hammers, sanding, dowels and glue. Wonderful!!!

[@MichaelCarroll]

Another work of beauty! Once again, you've managed to turn scrap wood into solid gold (metaphorically!).

[@EpicUpCycling]

Thanks very much :)

[@Easy_Going__]

Your work is unbelievably magnificent. You have true, master woodworking skills. I love all the jigs you’ve made. Your posts always amaze me and make me smile. Thank you for sharing your incredible talent. 🇺🇸 ❤ 🇺🇦

[@wallaceknifeworkshomestead]

Your creativity and your craftsmanship are second to none, always a pleasure watching you work!

Thanks very much :)

[@suzanneschneider7560]

You are truly gifted. Are you an engineer in your daily profession? I am continually amazed and at your beautiful works of art. Happy Holidays!!

No, I'm not an engineer by trade, but I've always enjoyed making things :)

Absolutely 💯 percent gorgeous.True craftsman.

This is incredible jason. Words cannot describe the attention of building such a wonderful unit. Absolute genius. I can't wait for your next video my friend 🙂
