Hell of a job!!!!!! U GOT THIS

[@jmuller86]

Thanks. You guys have some good products

[@B2GOG]

Amen! StoneCoatCountertops are so amazingly beautiful and will certainly be trying to use this concept on our countertops and probably many other projects too! ❤

[@user-yo3cm6qx9l]

Вы покрывали лаком!? Ведь смола сильно царапается!😊

[@TpetPlayr]

My ONLY question is how durable are they? That's the one thing that holds me back from doing it.

[@Rockport1911]

Certain design decisions will never please anybody. But the fact that you build a complete kitchen on your own in the ICF- house you build your own is amazing. Normally getting a kittchen made from a company costs a fortune, and they seldom deliver that quality and unique style. Thanks for the video, has been a great series so far :)

[@maverickgood5204]

Jesse is the man! He needs to do classes to teach the rest of us who don’t know anything how to do something.

[@Bob_Adkins]

Jesse's a contractor, so I'm pretty sure he's built a few kitchens on his own before.

[@SaltyVibrations]

Peak 1994 vibes with a waterbed in the bedroom and a pontiac firebird in the driveway

[@INORBET]

Although invented in 1962 , they weren’t “common” in house holds schools til 2005-2008 , but I’m sure some gangsta in 94 knew about LEDs 😂😂😂❤❤❤

[@matthew568]

Yea. This is really trashy and ugly.

[@MistressOnyaCox]

@SaltyVibrations ❤❤ i totally wanna Bang THAT guy 😂😂😂

[@joshwiederholt5965]

Extreme "not if you could, but if you should" moment

[@marquisethomas5611]

Yeah, my mom had a table with this pattern when i was a kid

[@rogert.winemiller40]

Man it's got to be super gratifying to know that you made those cabinets like literally from scratch

[@michaelfraser5723]

...but what about the work surfaces ?

[@henristephens9406]

Beautiful job

[@fml5910]

I agree those cabinets are gorgeous.

[@KennySmith_AKA_JerseyKid]

By the way it’s cool seeing the little guy wanting to watch. What he learns now will be retained by him for decades to come. I had the experience of working with my grandfather when was younger

[@doomprophet]

To each their own I guess. I appreciate the work that went into this and I like the night light idea of it. Its cool that the theme matches your bathrooms.

[@victoriaahlbrecht9715]

I'm in my 70s, and I think that's the coolest kitchen ever . Your boys are going to love it. I hope you put a bookcase on your island with lights . Awesome job. Pat yourself on the back. You have such neat insight .

[@larryhopkins6023]

Definitely love the high gloss look. It turned out beautiful.

[@bruceross102]

Spectacular! I am thinking about attempting a dining room table and this was truly inspiring. Nice job! Got my brain gears turning as to what I want to do with my first project. Thanks for sharing - learned a LOT of techniques as well.

[@cassthompson3386]

I have no idea why this was in my recommended, and i *really* have no idea why i just watched an entire *Hour* *and* *a* *half* video about countertops lol but im glad i did! It turned out so good! At first i was pretty skeptical about how the cutouts for the LEDs were gonna turn out, but they turned out AMAZING! Job very well done 👏

[@WendyRichards-uq3cu]

Extraordinary detail & skills! The part that I noticed the most was your little boy wanting so much for you to examine & be proud of him for his turtle catch. You praised the little one about his bullheads. That turtle was beautiful with the red markings. I think your comment was "back to work". And for sure you are an adventurous & devoted craftsman/artist.⭐✌🏼

[@markbaudino8879]

Outstanding, those spalted maple cabs are beautiful and you nailed it with the tops. Pleasure watching this video. I have done a lot of the epoxy. You made it look easy. Guessing you are an electrician by trade.

[@MrZzyzxx]

Beautifully conceived and executed !

[@Spraygunsablazing]

1st time seeing LED lights in countertops. I have to say...pretty cool 😎 Great job!! 👍🏼

[@singleshot2218]

Those countertops are insane! What a beautiful job! You’re an artist Jesse! Take care and stay safe! God bless! ✝️🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@xanthonyjamesx]

This is one of the most beautiful countertops I’ve ever seen 💯

[@marquisethomas5611]

It was a couple times throughout this video where i said "wth are they doing" but you guys proved me wrong

[@johnbarberio4370]

Jesse I have to say your cabinets came out top-notch. The recessed LED lighting was one hell of a great idea. They set those dark colored countertops off big time! Can’t wait for your next video and you and your family getting fully moved in.

[@psterdactyl7253]

Jesse, I suscribe to not only your channel but dozens more on KZbin as a Google/KZbin paid subscriber. You are doing an incredible job and the videos of your concrete home are first class. Please keep up the fine work as we are all learning from you. Noah is a heartbeat away from being America's favorite son. He WILL walk in your footsteps.

[@jamescole1786]

8/11/23; ..ahh yes Jesse, another A+ video on very artistic kitchen counter tops. Nobody else on the planet has counter tops that glow in the dark + free form illuminated curves built into the tops! Little sons & their recent pond 'catch', turtle & baby catfish, were added visual treats! Adding your kids in yur videos give us older 'grandpa's & grandma's a very nice 'warm fuzzy'!! Another great educational experience from you & your little 'helpers'👍👏🧤🤗

[@darekradulski6213]

I’ll honest and will say that I haven’t seen mdf that looks like cypress pine,very nice. An idea is getting born in my cranium. Thanks.

[@markbrown6236]

Totally agree with you on what's too busy and what's not. What a beautiful outcome. I know you are proud of the result.

[@basecom70]

Very nice job! I love how you explain your thought process. I also admire how you handle your youngest boy. Very chill around him. Thanks for sharing the whole process of building your home. Can't wait for the geothermal stuff for your HVAC.

[@cjm6271]

I told Jesse on one of his earliest videos how much I admired his interactions with his son. And how included he was in his endeavors. He is a natural at fatherhood. Heartwarming!

[@chuckmolisky9373]

Love to see you change out the drawer pulls and knobs to a flat black. Awesome video. Thanks.

[@michaelbyrd9551]

That would be bad ass!!!

[@elsievelazquez840]

Oh…. Wow, I loved the concept with LED light great idea. Will play with. Thank you so much for sharing. 👍👏

[@78jog89]

And, they even glow in the dark! Thanks for sharing. You are gifted with great talent, and I envy you.

[@JamesLeatherman]

I had my doubts when you gut those slots, but wow - that really did come out looking amazing.

[@guillermohernandez4493]

The job is so well done and the counter with black epoxy looks wonderful and Essey on your eyes! Glossy finish looks fantastic. Good you brother’

[@maxdystopia674]

we used to mix cooking oil and charcoal dust, then spread on our cattle and horses in the summer, as well as soak our rub ropes with the mixture, its excellent at keeping the blowflys and other biting insects away.

[@bobanderson2807]

Your quality and complete explanations are “Super”. I look forward to everything you work on-wood or metal! TY for such a relaxing view.

[@iamnotguilty]

Love the spalted maple! That's exactly what my cabinets are going to look like. Waited 6 1/2 years for my logs to spalt and I started sawing them on my sawmill last week. Great job on the counters!

[@art1muz13]

That came out really, really nice!! Thank you for sharing ''REMBRANDT''. And the lost footage....... Well, that's just go-pros new 'catchphrase'. Blessings to you and yours!

[@allanblackburn175]

It just gets better and better Jesse, a master of all trades. One word Brilliant

[@Lala-up3ib]

Wow!! Every time I see you work on a project, you blow my mind! Great job on your home. I love how you take your time to get it how you want❤❤❤❤

[@MarkSmith-vb7ym]

You did one hell of a job on those cabinets beautiful keep up the great work

[@disziaq2828]

ITS SO GOOD YOU LET YOUR KIDS STAY FOR SHORT TIME TO WATCH. THEYRE LEARNING you’re inspiring them and me. Thanks ID LOVE TO HAVE BEEN ABLE TO WATCH MY DAD DO THIS STUFF. KUDOS SIR BLESSINGS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY

[@jeorgeortiz5501]

For me is beautiful and unique don't change anything is perfect the way it came out love it

[@_RocketRooster]

You can say what you want but I would definitely consider you as a master craftsman in wood working! You pay so much attention to detail! Those cabinets are gorgeous. I love the spalted look.

[@jmuller86]

Thanks

[@tinageorge8058]

I’ve been seeking ideas for my kitchen remodeling and I have to say, I love yours a lot. Those cabinets are everything 👏👏. What exceptional workmanship 👏👏👏👏.

[@johnsmith-qz4bv]

Wow they look amazing great job all u need is an imagination and u can do just about anything with epoxy.. plus I think the leds were a great touch to . Great video

[@Adwena1]

Congratulations, job well done 👍. Loved your video, love from Australia ❤

[@green5sing]

One of the most amazing and detailed videos out there for anyone who wants to do this! Thank you so much!!! ❤❤❤

[@timothypirnat3754]

I like the gloss look. Looks like polished marble.

[@patronfr9975]

Отлично получилось. Я не верил что будет выглядеть так красиво из-за разнообразия цветов, у вас получилось.

[@ccw12021]

I’m going to be real with you as I watched the pour I thought what a mess and as the epoxy began to take its form I sat here with my mouth dropped 😮wide open with a smile… man y’all did that. Y’all did an amazing job. I ❤it

[@skitzochik]

really unique would be an understatement... that powder blue mixed with black is truly stunning. youve got this pegged Jesse, youre a pro.

[@peterarmstrong8613]

There is so much to learn and discover on your channel Jesse and you show the process in superb detail. Your skills and versatility combined with the ability to educate others is admirable.

[@Andronik_Metlin]

Очень круто! Настоящий мужик всё делает сам, мебель, дом и даже виски ))))

[@robertbennett7393]

Countertops look awesome , then the lights look incredible

[@marcelw223]

I have seen many of Stone Coat Countertop videos, and you knocked it out of the park! They turned out amazing, I agree with you way better than a 10 grand natural stone would have cost. I'm with the crowd on the gloss finish, like you said you can change it later if you want the matt finish. 10/10 👍👍

[@janellbrown75]

Super impressive! I’ve done kitchens and I do acrylic and resin- I love the way you combined the two in what seems like your own home. Nicely done! I’m sure the kiddos in the video are gonna love it too

[@hadassafrancis1585]

Love this design! I would make the cabinet doors frosted glass so the lights filter though the cabinet doors as well.

[@preacher1775]

Superb imagination, blended with master skills, produce an incredibly beautiful project!

[@AW-Services]

Bravo Jesse. After seeing your Facebook post this morning, I couldn't wait for this video. The level of finish is professional, high-end, and bespoke. The led effect is awesome. You should look into addressable led as you can create a slow moving motion effect across the whole countertop. The boys and their care for wildlife, along with Kaiden saying how beautiful the turtle was, just highlights their fantastic upbringing Keep up the great work Austin in the 🇬🇧

[@HamburgerAmy]

i'm happy i'm not the only one that thought about addressable led lights... even with the first generation stuff it looks so pretty tho

[@csehszlovakze]

44:33 phosphorescent and fluorescent pigments are usually labeled with two colors around here: the day color (in this case white) and the night color (blue). phosphorescent emits light after you turn off the lights, while fluorescent shifts wavelength and reflects in a different color, e.g. UV light goes blue.

[@ianmoore525]

Good to see someone using silastic/ silicone sealant. There’s is almost nothing it can’t do unless you are in a hurry. 👍🏻

[@Kburke905]

Turned out nice!! Great job!! 👍

[@ponymanr]

Beautiful job on the counter tops, and the cabinets as well. I really enjoy your videos. Thanks

[@JenMarco]

You got me with “built in LED lights”. I didn’t see it yet but I can envision it and I want it.

[@3cl1]

What a relaxing video to watch. There's no way I'd tackle that level of work. Chicken's for Sunday lunch, Turkey for Thanksgiving, pig for Christmas? Cabinets and tops look great.

[@krex585]

Jesse you should add light diffuser so you will not see individual LEDs. Great work.

[@abpc1x905]

Your spalted maple cabinets are pure eye candy! Looking forward to see how they look once you apply the final finish on them. Super nice work overall!

[@theSeaHag]

I'd never heard of spalted maple, but....Wow! 🤩

[@demigodcustoms]

I believe is spalted beech what you had in mind

[@ruthhaught4296]

Beautiful just beautiful.

[@ajablonska82]

I don't like the led lights but it's not kitchen. The most important is that you're happy. Amazing job on the rest. Well done

[@MakeSushi1]

its a cool idea, maybe too large cracks for me, smaller light fractures would IMO be cooler

[@user-yo3cm6qx9l]

Это мрамор а не трещины😉😊

[@Guysm1l3y]

The embedded lighting details aren't my style but it's awesome how you made them!

[@waynepennington2769]

I think you just started something that everyone is gonna want in their kitchen an bathroom. That is awesome

[@seansysig]

StoneCoat came out beautiful and the backsplash is spectacular.

[@ESPSJ]

Looks really good. Even though the island is kind of busy with the design, at least you didn't spend thousands on stone only to be disappointed in some way. Sometimes marble isn't the nicest and it costs so much. The LEDs are a nice touch too. You could honestly make a whole career out of doing just epoxy countertops and showers.

OUTSTANDING. !!! TOP TIER , GRADE A . Me like very trendy good work . Glad to see my girl pearl my favorite criitter on the Muller Estates .

[@rhondasweeney7271]

You have worked very hard on the counter tops and cabinets and everything else. To be quite honest, not my cup of tea, but for a young family spot on. Love it when the interaction with your sons, I think you have more patience for the youngest than the old oldest . Everyone that I've seen the boys in I notice the difference. I am a Mother and a Grandmother, and i've always noticed that. Just being honest.😊

[@ianmurray9201]

Every top is a work of art and although you think the Island is too busy I like it the most, hang it on an art gallery wall and somebody would buy it.Hey Makita! sponsor this man!!!!!!!!!!

[@foreignflava9666]

Leave em glossy bro.. it's the most unique artistic work I've ever seen amazing job man and the LED's just make the entire countertops pop!!💯👍👍💖

[@luisaguiar857]

I would went to quartz... it's too mutch for my taste

[@fredrikg120]

Usually love your work but this is just too much. Those countertops would maybe fit in a night club or something. In a kitchen? No! Looks like something a 15 year old would dream up.

[@richjames7948]

Are we not allowed to have an opinion that's different to yours? What a shit comment to leave after he spent so much time and great work. And it looks great. We all have different tastes. Only you seem to need to voice yours. 😂

[@fredrikg120]

@@richjames7948 indeed we all have different tastes. I expressed mine and you yours. You ask ”are we not allowed to have different opinions” and then go on attacking me for having my own opinion? Are you alright my man?

[@sammyglo5354]

⁠@@fredrikg120your the one who said "in a kitchen? No!" Then proceeded to insult everyone that had a different opinion on liking it in a kitchen with that last comment. You can have your opinion but keep the insults to yourself. That's like me saying 24" wheels on a muscle car?? No! But people do have that taste. Honestly with the hard work they put in on this is amazing but for me I would rather have something natural like marble or wood grains etc. but that is some nice work.

[@simontillson482]

No need to be insulting when expressing an opinion. Also, you’re no fun. I bet the kids love it.

Watching how nice it is to have a router. I remember when we did it manually rounding the corners. And a load of sanding also. I love the epoxy look on countertops. So much I’m seeing with it. I saw a channel her he used the heat from the sun outside to slowly bend a several inches thick piece

Bad Ass! I love it. I can't stop watching your

[@DingleyDell]

The woodwork and those counter tops look awesome! Your skills are on another level.

[@gorak9000]

They "look" awesome, but how do they perform as counters? Epoxy is relatively soft - I'd worry about it getting scratched up and looking like crap in short order. Also I don't think it's very heat resistant - put a hot pot or pan down on it, and it'll probably bubble. Even the LEDs - they're cool for a youtube video, but I bet after you live with them for 2 weeks, you'd hardly turn them on

[@jmuller86]

​@@gorak9000the topcoat that we use on these makes them almost impossible to scratch and totally heat resistant too. I already tested that stuff on my shower

[@RobTuck1475]

Truly amazing concepts and designs Jesse!! One a kind for sure. Top notch craftsmanship as always. Thank you again for taking us along on the journey of this awesome build. Lots of love to y'all. Please stay safe.
