Hackers tip: you can download for free the instructions on Ikea furniture and it comes with all the dimensions.

[@the_jonathan_o]

Thanks. This is very helpful.

[@neveehall4495]

Yea you can if you don't want it to be customized to your space and stain/color!

[@isoko7]

Awesome!! Thanks for the tip!

[@vexxxgaming7303]

@@neveehall4495 Huh? Making it yourself makes it easier to customize and match your space. You aren't limited in any way.

[@mcattack2009]

Very good idea, make it out of what materials you want.

[@brettfullmer8914]

Dude, can you build a wooden laundry pedestal/stand for front load washer/dryers? That would be dope - keep up the great work.

[@zmay8533]

Awwww what a cutie that baby is! The smile made my day!

[@rosecityremodel2015]

I used the Sunbleashed stain on the shiplap walls in my laundry room. It’s gorgeous!

[@coolmandza]

Best and nice job

[@cjoarder]

Liked your presentation very much. This project is great for a beginner to try on. Thanks for sharing this.

[@graceisNERD]

I love how upfront you are about cost.

[@McNuggetStL]

Good work on the video, I appreciate how you broke it down with the lists of cuts and dimensions and then crossed it out when done!

[@PizzzaBoy]

Fun tip with sanding...Grit of paper will change your stain. You can always use 120 on veneer but be cautious of your passes. Low grit will get you darker color and as you go up, your color will become lighter.

[@timrose3072]

These are the perfect videos. As cool as it is to see some of the wilder things being built on occasion its nice to see something i could actually accomplish

[@donnygrahambuilds]

Admittedly this level of building isn't for me - but I can totally appreciate the audience you're trying to reach. And always happy to throw your videos a like and view *thumbs up*

[@mdhennessy]

Great project and really well presented. It was clear and interesting and I think I can actually build it from these instructions.

[@andrewshaneyfelt4789]

Love the open back for wiring purposes!

[@ernestor.salazar1619]

Great content .y friend

[@MrJinga27]

Man l love your energy and 'can do' attitude. Great channel.

[@David_Phantom]

Tad surprised you didn't embed the wireless charger into the nightstand. It looks amazing! I really love the stain. That baby has really good taste!

[@marybethduke3263]

Color is baby-approved! 😂 So incredibly cute!

[@tygjaykin]

They came out looking sooo good!!

[@neveehall4495]

Love this! I'm redoing my room and your videos have given me tons of inspiration and helpful tips for my room. THANK YOU ALEX AND IRINA! 😊 😊 😊

[@cecileferrier3611]

Gosh, I wish this video came out before I nought my nightstands !! Ahah, great vid as always

[@macsmith2092]

Those came out great! I like the finish on that grain pattern.

[@TreyJustice]

Can you show easiest way to cut plywood straight without table saw and jsut circular saw?

[@maksymmaksym2161]

Just discovered your channel and I love them! Great job!

[@matheushamancio]

I'm watching you in Maceió - Alagoas - Brazil! You're a real image of man. Thank you for yours videos. Have a nice day!

[@TheLawnSensei]

I would like to ask you why you set the pocket hole jig to 3/4 inch while the board is 1/2 inch! Thanks

[@spbias07]

Because what he didn’t say is that the stand is built out of 3/4 inch wood and the DRAWERS are build out of 1/2 inch wood. I found that out the hard way when I tried to build this.

[@TheLawnSensei]

@@spbias07 thanks!

[@harronfn4845]

If you wanted to make it even more modern you could add an led strip to the underside to get a nice additional bit of light

[@exodus9620]

can you make a video of you making a clean wall mounted corner shelf that can hold about 25 kg. keep up the good work

[@briannekrumins9371]

Thank you!!! I will be building soon!:)

[@JaykUS354]

Are you listening in to my phone or something?!? Just finished a bedroom bathroom remodel and now a king bed. Your videos keep popping up at the perfect time. Gotta go build some night stands now I guess haha. Keep up the awesome work.

[@OtikaOtikaOtika]

Nice night stands 👍 Just wish you'd match drawer fronts so the grain from one front would continue to another.

[@ftnirish74]

Love the videos! Great idea for simple solution build series. Looking forward to future videos. 🇺🇸

[@justgigit55]

Nice loveevery play mat! Oh yea the tools and wood are cool too lol

[@mikethomas8000]

[@philabot]

[@JCSchaefer82]

[@roejoganscastpod4928]

“Girthy”...damn I felt that.

[@MrZmann14]

"Pocket holes and Maple Plywood" should be on a shirt.

[@MrHarleyreinke]

Instead I'm taking the joints can't you use a damp cloth instead?

[@TreyJustice]

would be cool to integrate a wireless charger into the stand. I'm gonna try and build these for my gf for Christmas.

[@joeburkard5034]

Very nice!

[@tejalpatel2052]

Thank you sooooo much! Love the tutorial!! If I were to purchase a table saw, but beginner, how do you ensure perfect dimensions?

[@floydcarroll6722]

Love ur vids. Keep doing what u do.

[@MrVangoo]

Great Video :) I'm a french beginner in DIY and I Love IT. Can someone please tell me what is the name of the tool @4mn30 that make inclined hole? I saw that there is a little blue tool showed by Mr Built It in addition. Thanks in advance for your help and take care :) Sincerely

[@ivangutzwiller6929]

Love this Video 😍😍

[@markadamarnold]

Harper obviously liked Flint better...... LOL!

[@jsharkey5738]

Love your vids! What was the total cost per night stand? I know the sliders were $34 each but wood, stain and materials?

[@abishnaavelrajan6791]

[@DedaLGaming]

Beginner friendly but homie has a $50k shop hes working in

Imagine being this guys neighbor. You would never get sleep.

[@FullRythym]

Great content, need to update your intro music

2nd to like and 1st to comment

i feel like ikea would give the same thing for way less money

[@Recovering_Californian]

Joe Rogan on the TV ... good podcast choice.

[@yilmaztosun4858]

"buy yourself a nice blade" uuh I don't even have a table saw 🤣🤣

[@grupith8310]

13:21 Listening to Rogan I see

[@monkeysheep]

Good to see the wife in the kitchen..............joke guys come on its not the 1970s

[@antoniocazarez7369]

Bro i need your help if you can make me a night stand

[@masterchrisww]

Why do you cut out the sound of your drills

[@DeevonWesLaRue]

2:12 that’s what she said

[@shantelguetgen4157]

Mine works too. I used the Woodglut plans and performed it without any problems.

[@jamesmoreno4155]

"A bib if you will. We have a baby" lol

[@eddieherrera1990]

Great video! But how is this for beginners? Unless the requirement to be a beginner is 4 grand plus of woodworking tools then I’ll never be able to get into wood working... I would say if you going to title something for beginners maybe show us how you would tackle jobs with tools we would use. Otherwise great video!

[@RoyalSnickers7]

Home Depot or Lowe’s will cut all of the wood for you if that helps!!

[@streetryderchick]

Lots of wasted space under that lower drawer. Secret storage maybe?

[@PrettyGoodShot]

I read how to build a one night stand. AYOOO

[@djpat5998]

Lol he opened that new tool up like a little kid.

[@lynjermey6423]

What's the issue with you and John Malecki!
