✔ DiResta Vintage Sign ReMake

I re created this sign from old photos. Long ago it hung in the Sittzel-Weller Distillery in Louisville Ky. Home of Bulleit Bourbon. I had the graphic printed from an Illustrator file I created. Enjoy.

I can just see some guy holding this sign up at the 'Antiques Roadshow' a hundred years from now saying, "I found it in the basement of an old building with other unique antiques." And being told by the Appraiser it's worth millions.

[@daly5]

What a ridiculous arse licking comment!

[@vfgzhejdtfyguhj]

daly5 What? You think it's too much? I was trying for funny/clever. I did a comment similar that was well received. Can't you imagine the Antique Road-show appraising some of his work?

[@robertsheffey8894]

Always a pleasure to watch your bandsaw and drawing skills in action.

[@TYPE1TEEZ]

What a great build and even better quote. I heard you say that you enjoy what you do. I want to say thank you for taking the time energy to share your many skills with your videos. You answer so many questions without saying a word. You are as fine a teacher as you are a maker/craftsman. Thanks again.

[@johnhamilton57]

Jimmy - What an incredible artist and craftsman you are...I will forever be in awe of your boundless talents. Thank you for sharing!

[@Antihobutt]

Jimmy DiResta you truly are a master of mixed media. No matter what the project, probably even watching paint dry, you always make it entertaining and informative. Another great video thank you sir for sharing.

[@fasfan]

Simple but elegant design. When putting the molding on the top though... all I could think was, "Save the clock tower! Save the clock tower!"

[@Frankallen12]

You Sir, are a Master Woodworking Master! Thanks for posting!!

[@woodkraftsfwi1999]

Nice one Jimmy. Your videos are so easy to watch. No rambling for 5min before the action. Thanks for sharing.

[@hyland1984]

haha... who needs to spend 4 years doing an apprenticeship when we've got jimmy.

[@ShortwickCreations]

Watching you run the board across the table saw diagonally.. "WTF is he doing??". Shows bevelled edge... "Holy shit!" Bravo!

[@phlav0r]

Brad Woodfield My head exploded.

[@beeseebee_]

Lol. Agreed

[@jkunderwood3291]

The amount of knowledge you possess is astounding. Truly amazing work.

[@RobertEchten]

Although there is no separate tips video this week, this one is just filled with awesome little tips and tricks. Excellent work, Jimmy. Thanks!

[@rastaraj191069]

Wow!! Another great project. Thanks for sharing.

[@SpreadsFire]

I love the fact that you make these wonderful items while listening to the Stern Show! Thank you!

[@sawyerchristianson]

Your tricks for making patterns continue to amaze me! I just don't get how people like you can freehand such attractive design elements. I would have sat there for an hour with a compass and ruler, futzing and re-futzing until I decided too much time has been wasted. Thanks as always for showing how to GET SHIT DONE.

[@jalen441]

The words don't do much for me, but the craftsmanship is impeccable. It's always a delight to see the process behind the art!

[@SlowlyLosinIt]

Im infatuated with your channel......just wish I had your skills. Like that paper thing you did at the beginning. You drew out half of your design.....traced over that, flipped over the paper, and had your mirrored design......SO simple......yet....I would have never thought to do that. learning new stuff every video I watch.

[@DiHandley]

You see...there you go again. I would never have thought of using a table saw like that! And even if I did try it, I'd just end up a bloody mess on the floor missing one hand. Great work. Two thumbs up for this one Jimmy. "bd"

[@NateCougill]

David Handley look up Izzy Swan's channel! He turns a bowl on a table saw with a jig he designed!

[@singJJBplay]

I like it when you show the labels on the different finishes and perhaps not-so-known chemicals you use in your shop, Jimmy. I'm filling Mod Podge away for a future project. Awesome build. Thanks. JB

[@vigilante004]

Thanks, Jimmy. This is a great video. I am now inspired to go out in the garage and make some cove molding.

[@legare_15]

I am always amazed with your creativity. Nice job.

[@opmdevil]

That is so nice sign for the whiskey factory

[@rodneytransier8847]

opmdevil The sign clearly states that it is NOT a whiskey factory! :)

[@thelyingscotsman7993]

opmdevil I got the joke mate lol

[@VikingShorts]

Great Build and Great Bourbon

[@jaytomes2856]

It is nice to see these projects. The fact all of those distilleries are in my back yard helps that cause too. Great work as always Jimmy. My shop is open to you whenever you are in Louisville and need a place to work.

[@brendanc7629]

Saturday night victory! New Diresta video. A true master

[@ChrisGeddes13]

Very nice! Loved the table saw cove you did.

[@Backyardwoodworks2014]

out of all the woodworker video channels i subscribe to, this is 1 of 2 i never fast forward through!

[@censusgary]

Jimmy, I'm impressed with how you made that concave molding using only a regular table saw. Who needs a router table? That was pretty slick.

[@billdiehl156]

I realize that this is an old video but I love going through the "Diresta Archives" as I always learn something new. This was a great build, but while watching it I muttered to myself, "can't he just go to Home freakin' Depot and BUY some pre-cut molding instead of making me feel incompetent!!" LOL! Loved this project!

[@PLaTerra]

Jimmy- your tricks and tips are the best! Simple but super effective. Thanks buddy

[@SkullyWoodMetal]

Cool sign both the sentiment and the construction.

[@atrider84]

I dig the Stern audio in the background. Solid addition.

[@Gamingthrone]

Awesome job Mr Jimmy, I love the moulding cut from the Table saw it turned out great and the Gold knob was also a very nice touch.

[@davidcornwell9045]

Very cool. Like the classic look.

[@willosmensshed9296]

Great work Jimmy. I used to be a patternmaker and we did a lot of 'Coving' on the table saw, exactly how you made the mouldings for the sign. Well done!

[@symonf1966]

Top notch job there Mr Diresta.

[@TheShavingWoodWorkshop]

Great re creation Jimmy

[@Kris_at_WhiteOaksFarm]

Cor, I wish I had a Band saw. The things you make look so effortless. That cove molding thing though. I did that once, it was a great feeling to make that work! Keep on keeping on, you rock!

[@DarrenBoss1984]

Very impressive. I like the curved sanding block you made for smoothing the inside of the top of the sign. Another tool to add to your collection :D

[@FrankWeichmann]

Nice work! The gold ornament makes it pop.

[@crosenblum]

Amazing visualization and articulation of your vision skills. Mad Skillz, Jimmy. You are truly the DaVinci of this era.

[@daveyfus1]

I always love your videos, you make it look so easy. Thanks for sharing.

[@dinamboyz]

I loved how you done the moldings on the table saw lift the blade a bit at a time. Well made Jimmy. I was in a hotel bar in Milwaukee Wisconsin last weekend I flew in from the UK and there in the bar was your brand of whiskey.

[@peggyt1243]

It is fascinating to watch you work. I watch your videos 2 or 3 times to see how you do all the steps. Your basement workshop is a cave and you are Creativity in a Cave.

[@ViewVideoNow]

Another great video, Jimmy! I feel bummed that i didnt know you and your brother John did a few TV shows together until recently when i watched your shop tour video and heard you mention Hammered and Dirty Money.. i'm just about finished binge watching "Trash to Cash" - finished "Hammered" and "Dirty Money" already.. you are a true creative genius! Thanks for sharing!

[@marcus460]

A man of great talent.

[@DanielVilarino]

[@Kroonag]

[@bobmcbride7058]

Beautiful work. Thank you.

[@SpeedysWoodshop]

That is a slick way to duplicate the pattern on the other side of the wood!! Beast mode!

[@phukincack1]

Awesome work Jimmy!

[@Frednecksbored]

As always, great work. I almost always learn something watching your vids, Jimmy. And when I don’t learn something new I still feel inspired with new ideas. Thanks. BabaBooey!!

[@kaceesavage]

[@ismaelhaiderco]

Fantastic , It looks nice .

[@freitasllc5312]

The turned detail was cool!

[@StevenPitts]

I've never seen that with the table saw before. Also, that might be the first time I've seen you use a jigsaw. Great video, can't wait for the mini distillery.

[@iviedbymightymt]

Great work as always. I find it particularly interesting how you make those cornices using the table saw.

[@leapinglemurcraftworks6426]
