Ian Made This Table A 10/10!

[@Thelotekk]

Honestly Ian, this looks like a topographical map. Beautiful craftmanship. Way to elevate the signature series.

[@denmoore92]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I could watch videos of Ian and Crazy Ed crafting the most beautiful timber products forever

[@jpham2]

They need their own channel just for woodworking and product development

[@joltman81]

Jason too. I love watching that video of him Making Mat Mercer's DM Screen.

[@afk_82]

[@briansaben5697]

Enjoy them while you can. Rarely do companies survive massive layoffs without government intervention despite the optimistic messages from management.

[@connorlee2011]

​@@briansaben5697 Listen I hate Layoffs as much as the next person having experienced and been through 5 myself. Most of the logic to do such is bullshit and often the wrong people get laid off so the company can better support the short term goals Wall Street has given them. This is the first time it's ever clicked and made sense as it really does have to do with their long term goals and business model. Shit timing though will never forgive people who lay off during the holidays.

[@dragonettiification]

Ian, Bennett, Jason, and crazy Ed are why I watch wrymlyfe

[@afk_82]

and Jay 😉

[@zombieno1]

And then.. Big Tony shows up. Wait.. did he make the cut?

[@LanceKirkman]

Truth

[@karamabee]

THIS is what Wyrm Lyfe should be all about… more woodworking, less corporate stuff. Ian > Doug.

[@merlin2890]

I saw this in person at Paxon unplugged. It's one thing to watch these videos. it's another to actually see it in person. It came out so beautifully so perfect. Great craftsmanship guys.

[@saltmanz]

Watching Ian practice his craft is my favorite WyrmLyfe subgenre.

[@FJMiller14]

Ian is the reason I keep watching Wyrmlife

2nd topper was so much better than the 1st.

It was nice meeting some of you! Keep up the great work. Looking forward to what other accessories come out for my MGT.

[@itsworth76]

I was totally not into the previous iterations but daaaaaaang, that's one beautiful table.

[@John-lo2wn]

Great video! Sad we didn’t see more of the finished table after all the build up!

[@danmur15]

1:55 CGP Grey sighting!

[@DanJVennard]

I was at PAX Unplugged! It was great to meet Doug, Bennett and Bobby. Loved to see both the Rogue Prophecy and Signature Burl Hex Table. Video doesn’t do the tables enough justice. 🤩

[@matthewderezinski8103]

Impressive work and well done; the final piece is dynamite!!! Because of its size, this table can get into more homes. I hope it does well!!

[@Legolas15989]

Wyrmwood need custom pins for PAX/GENCON or other conventions. Just the Wyrmwood shield, made in stainless with gloss enamel, or inlay-ed woods, different per presenter, and clear coated. Imagine Bennett with a Steel and Oak pin

[@robcampbell405]

I remember you, Ian, doing an inlay piece a bit back. Great to watch a craftsman. Thanks!

[@maxpowr90]

Ian, I wish you were at PaxUnplugged. I asked Doug if your dad was still making homes; he was coy.

[@TioMostFrio]

Glad to see a happier video

[@StudioSokki]

Loved seeing this beautiful table in person at PAX!

[@avroarchitect1793]

YOOOOOOO someone send this to CGP Gray he has finally converted Wyrmwood to being next level believers in the hexagon being the best-agon

[@benjaminzale6803]

I had the chance to see this table in person at PAX, and the videos really don't capture how impressive it is.

[@FTRSheppard]

This wasn't at Gen Con this is Pax Unplugged

[@DarkenSeyreth]

Surprise Saturday video?! Amazing craftsmanship? This is what i stick around for.

[@stpatty3310]

That table belongs in a study full of books and rich mahogany, with a snifter of brandy on it.

[@sconnellyjr]

I saw the hex table at PAX yesterday and it was amazing!

[@TheRaptorJezuz]

Does anyone know, or could someone ask Ian what the knife he uses at 4:00 for the veneer? I've seen him use it a few times and have no idea what it is!

[@Anthony-H]

It's a veneer saw.

[@DeaconClash5000]

That burl topper is such a show stopper that it made me rhyme on accident.

[@RoximRox]

When he said Jason mentioned hexagons, I was expecting smaller burl hexagons inlaid into the toppers. I still think that would look slick, but this just looks class.

[@temojin9489]

The patience of Ian. Looks awesome!

[@50plymouths]

This is absolutely beautiful Ian you Sir are Amazing..

[@curleygumbo1487]

Yes. Yes. YES! That table is just beautiful. Good call not putting in a center distraction. I could justify the high price in purchasing it and showing it off and never using it. Well done sir. Well done.

[@alexandermesiti]

I love Crafting With Ian segments. Great episode.

[@lordorigami]

Love this table. Saw it at unplugged and it blow me away.

[@LabTech41]

Hey, as someone who likes to go into the old episodes and binge, I've noticed that some older episodes are no longer present; is there any particular reason for that?

[@HonestAuntyElle]

Are they still available in the playlists? Best guess is they contained people who were let go recently, so for their privacy (especially while they are job hunting) they got made unlisted.

[@Fhoulghoul]

They took down a bunch of episodes that made the company look bad. Or rather Doug look bad. So anything regarding OSHA and any other embarrassing things

[@LabTech41]

@@Fhoulghoul I think that's wishful thinking on the part of people who had it out on Doug; there are episodes missing that in no way were as you suggest. Really, the people who wanted to make hay out of their misunderstandings of the layoffs had their time, they're already going back under their rocks, and they should stay there and look in the mirror before they pop off again. I think HonestAunty had it right: they're probably involving people who've been let go, and are being vetted during the transition period. Most will probably pop back in once a certain span's elapsed. I think November 5th should've been a lesson to certain people that there's a lot of people out there that are sick of the politically correct tropes of the last 15-20 years, and that these tropes need to go away. You don't have to like or agree with Doug, but nothing short of reasonable discussions with open minds and steel-manning arguments will be taken seriously, period, end of.

[@Fhoulghoul]

@@LabTech41 lol ok edgelord. What does thinking they delisted videos that make them look bad? (Which they just did with the tariff video) have to do with political correctness? Or Trump? Who cares about that? OSHA and layoffs aren’t political correct stances just basic law and decency. Remember to get the hard to reach spaces when you’re licking their boots, buddy

[@LabTech41]

@@Fhoulghoul They delisted the tariff video because all the wannabe socialists came out of the woodwork, just like all the wannabe CEO's came out of the woodwork on the layoff videos. Sometimes, you have to pick your battles, especially when it's energy vampires like that ilk. Honestly, I'm glad this whole politically correct BS is going away; it just sucks all the joy out of the room to hear the undeservedly self-righteous types spout BS. You lot are going to strut and fret your hour, and then you'll go away and find something else to make you miserable; you won't be missed.

[@shawrictube]

Saw it in person, it looked amazing!

[@olivierlar]

That's an insane redemption arc for the table!

[@benedictfletcher4210]

Ian time-lapse glam shots... video wise that worked really well... oh the table looks good too.

[@bitteroldjoe]

"please ignore the horrendous HR decision, here's some crafting in an emergency weekend post to distract you!"

[@Jacob-W-5570]

it was upper management who made the decision, HR just got the orders, as is perfectly clear in the video.

[@dealbreakerc]

It wasn't a horrible decision though. They needed to cut staff and they did. That's business. And before you start saying that it was before the holidays, stop and think what it means to keep on a bunch of staff who you don't need for another month and a half? A waste of money.

[@hjewkes]

This video really needed some more detail shots of the final table. You only see it done for some quick shots.

Yooo CGP Grey cameo!! Love that guy I think his videos are what radicalized me years ago. 😂

[@social3ngin33rin]

How TF did he get the ends to match each other after cutting?!

[@cgnefarious5785]

If you watch the video closely, you can see he layered the two pieces on top of each other and cut them together. That way one side will always match the other.

The real question is who’s pumping out the best crokinole table.

[@jasons.9389]

Crazy how empty the shop looks.

[@peter65zzfdfh]

They cut a shift, so I think people are just attuned to noticing shots with few people in them that they wouldn’t have noticed before. Either the shop would be basically 100% empty because Ian’s working out of hours or almost as busy as before.

​@@anaesthetics You know, in retrospect, I actually feel sorry for your ilk: I personally might get annoyed from time to time, but the perpetually offended like you and yours must be so miserable; buoyed only by the brief moments you can blame others for things you don't understand and could never do. Doug's in Philly right now, securing business that'll see WW stable for long after you guys give up and move on to the next target to fill the void inside. You think he cares what you think? He's got much better things on his mind. It's cliche, but you should go touch some grass, find interests that can fulfill you, and think for yourself... or don't, I'm not your parents.

[@christopherbouget1169]

Hexagons are the…

[@TheCardboardWarlord]

Saw this table at PAX yesterday. I hate to say it but I did not like the topper. I know it's real wood but it resembled the kinda table you'd find at a discount furniture store with a fake laminate top. I may just be too white trash to be used to seeing that kinda wood used in furniture but it was not for me. I also noticed quite a few imperfections in the decorative inlay samples (those 4 designs that look like they are meant to go in the corners of a table topper). Not to continue this negativity train but I also noticed the seat of one of the chairs with the built in storage wasn't mounted center when I went to pull the seat closer to the table, I could feel a difference in the overhang with my fingertips. The complexity of the work you do is mindblowing but if I paid $30k for a Prophecy and chairs only to find imperfections like those in (what should be) your BEST work samples... I'd be pretty upset lol.

[@jonevansauthor]

I still think you should be monetising the channel, and taking sponsorships and indeed, sponsoring videos on other channels to publicise your product. If it even went at all well, you'd end up being able to do a lot more marketing and re-hire more people. You're under using this channel.

[@NV-xw5ok]

Can you breakdance on it though?

[@madhawaiian9732]

I'm just waiting to see what leadership in the C-Suite is going to do about their personal failure to the company. I assume the cause of the failure (marketing, projections) is being let go, without their stock options and no golden parachute. As a failure of that size is not acceptable in anyother business. I also assume the entire managerial staff took paycuts to the lowest paid employee, so they can keep as much staff as possible. Or are we just another heartless company these days?
