I think beginners will appreciate this format. For anyone new who may be turned off by this 43-minute-long video, please stick around. Always much to learn from Jon Peters' videos.

[@ren.ventura]

Jon, Been watching your videos for years - since I first got into woodworking. Your style is exactly what I hope for in a teacher; no flashy intros or annoying music, just valuable insight from start to finish. On top of that, your builds are as high in quality as your teaching. You're a true craftsman with an eye for quality and design, and I am very grateful that you share your techniques with people like me. Personally, I really enjoyed this format. I don't often have the time for 45+ minute videos, but when it's from Jon Peters, it's must-watch entertainment for the evening. In-depth builds like this are gold. Thank you for all that you do!

[@hensleecalendar4525]

I agree with you, couldn't have said it better.

[@rickfitzpatrick4469]

Yes, please continue making these instructional type videos. I got started woodworking late in life and I have never taken a woodworking class, your step by step instructional videos are invaluable to me. I am very grateful that you take the time to make and share these video's.

[@vmoutsop]

I've noticed videos like this don't get a lot of views, I appreciate and enjoy video tutorials like this. Keep it up if you can.

[@mrbilldo4]

I love these types of videos! You are such a wealth of knowledge and a fantastic teacher. More of this, PLEASE!!!!

[@basementbrew]

I learned a lot of practical, fundamental skills here, as well as a few slick tricks. Thank you for filming this build step-by-step. Solid craftsmanship.

[@GunnyArtG]

nice blend of approachable but high quality

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thank you!

[@chrisriney6056]

I very much appreciate the extra time it takes to make these kind of videos. To me woodworking is a process and you break that process down so it is easy to follow and understand as well as entertaining to watch. I always come away with something new. Thanks for taking the time to share with all of us.

[@stephenmiinnich327]

Hi Jon - Thank for this video. I’m a retired hydronic heating contractor from Chicago and I just made my first piece of cabinetry based on your videos. It’s a kitchen island with a bookcase at the end of it toward the dining room. Wouldn’t have been able to do it to my liking without your videos.

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thank you Stephen, that’s really great to hear. Really appreciate your comment, Jon

[@douglasreybberido]

Thank you for the plans, Jon. Please keep this video coming.

[@ericward9468]

Great video Jon! I always love your simple classic designs and that turn in are tired and true well built pieces.

[@mrford116]

Love this format, the longer video both gives me ideas for project details/methods and lets me get some of the satisfaction of woodworking while I might not have the time to be in the shop. Really appreciate your work!

[@tonyb2760]

Looks great with the contrast of the painted surfaces with the natural wood finish. Thanks for sharing

[@dirtychevyful]

Love this format and all your videos. As a newer woodworker it’s very appreciated! Thank you for all the help all your videos provide!

[@pennyroyal3813]

Fantastic video Jon! Great detail, pace and, thankfully, no music other than for the intro. Earlier this year I made queen size bed storage thanks to your videos and am now building cabinets and drawers for a new kitchen. Again, thanks to your videos. A mobile kitchen island will be built after the rest of the kitchen is installed. This bookcase design, with dimension changes, would make a beautiful island. Of course prior to building the island I will need to rewatch this video several times. Thank you for the long video.

[@tjerkheringa937]

I admire your efficiency. You are quick, you don't waste any energy on making things look pretty. This is by far the quickest way to nail stuff together and be done with it.

[@CarlosTorres-nm8jf]

Woodworking takes time, is awesome that you take the extra time to make the videos. Explain how to is very important to all of us. Thank you

[@johnversluys]

i really enjoy your videos, Jon. They have a real good amount of detail and are quite easy to follow. Please continue doing these types of long format teaching videos.

[@colincrannis8712]

I love the detailed way in which you step through your videos. They are so useful and informative. Keep it up Jon.

[@cb3plus845]

Loved this format! Please make more like this. I think it’s also refreshing that you admit your mistakes and even show them. Showing that even craftsman at your level of proficiency make mistakes.

[@philcrannick7383]

I like the way you go about explaining the processes of your builds. Also adding in errors along the way let’s the rest of us know it’s not uncommon to make errors, which drive me crazy when I make them. Thanks for all you do to help this community.

[@jacktyler7599]

What a wonderful Thanksgiving present to this audience. Great project, clearly presented, warts (small mistakes) and all. It's great to once again see a project that's completed with Waterlox finish, probably my favorite of the finishes I've chosen in the past. Thank you, Jon.

[@chrismoore9997]

I love the teaching format. It makes me feel like I could use the video to build from even without plans. Thank you for your work

[@mpl624]

Love your work, Jon. Your videos helped me gain the confidence needed to put a small shop together and start making furniture for my family. Thanks for what you do and keep it up.

[@carbonfe]

Love your projects and I've made a couple that are in my home today. Making build videos seems to be out of vouge right now, but it's what I want to see regularly. Thank you for the extra effort and time you put into your work. Personally, I've learned so much from your content. I'm very grateful for the knowledge you've passed on.

[@MuddFlappRanch]

I like the long form content. I know it does really fit the KZbin algorithm. You are a very good teacher.

[@Chadmw]

Great project! Thank you for showing your mistakes too. A lot of folks edit them out and it's nice to see that even master carpenters are still human!

[@SuperWingman69]

Jon, thank you so much for your time and effort in bringing us such great and useful content. You are a very talented and skilled craftsman. I look forward to utilizing what you've taught me and so many others. All the best!

[@joekosak9131]

Please more videos like this one. Awesome looking bookcase. I love the painted base and finished top.

[@tedsobocienski787]

Yes to the format. I can watch and build step by step. You have a great way of presenting your projects.

[@ecarrillo71]

Always love it when you teach like you did here! Please more videos like this!

[@hammer12354]

I am a great woodworker ( wannabe). You do a great job and explain how you do it nicely. I’m glad I found your channel. Thank you very much.

[@JS-ct5jn]

Start to finish videos are right up my alley. Love the process and the result.

[@michaelheaton478]

As a new woodworker this format of video is amazing to me!!! Everything is explained clear and understanding, as for me thank you, bc of these videos my skills are growing with every project I take on!!!

[@rongarnsey3263]

Jon this video and the format of teaching is perfect. I am in Australia and watch on KZbin and it is refreshing to have a woodworker like yourself show the way to achieve nice work with a no fuss attitude. I have been building furniture for a long time now and i am 74 years old but your approach to the task is refreshing.

[@bridwell34235]

Very much enjoy these types of videos. I have been what I call a 'fantasy' woodworker for many years - wanting to be a woodworker, ut having no time, tools or shop. Now that I am retired, I hope to actually begin to build things for my home. Thanks again.

[@Jeremy_810]

I like these builds. Simple, elegant, high quality, functional pieces I can accomplish in a reasonable time frame without a ton of setups. I only get a few hours in the shop each week so a lot of complicated joinery can make projects take months as they always tend to get put on the back burner when something else takes priority. I think we can tend to forget a lot of custom cabinetry built in a similar fashion goes out of style long before any sort of failure.

[@Bernardgrubb]

I would really love to see you make something out of all lumber not just plywood. I am just getting back into woodworking and I avoid using plywood if I can. I realize the price may be an issue but my clients prefer solid wood and I market it that way; no plywood used... Thanks and I really do love your videos and look forward to seeing much more. Thanks

[@carlosc.8707]

Excellent video Jon and good format, the bookcase was excellent. Congratulations ¡¡¡¡¡👍

[@s.kreusler5081]

Definitely getting some ideas here on how to build a better bookcase. I salute you, sir! Thank you for your videos.

[@me.es.1023]

Excellent...Excellent...keep them coming. I sincerely appreciate your effort.

[@troydale2656]

Love it! I learn a lot watching your lesson videos. Mostly making cuts a little heavy, then cut to size for assembly. Very nice!

[@streetkombativesystem4704]

Outstanding! Thank you. Will be making this!

[@jfinaz99]

The format is great, project choices great, teaching skills great. Thanks Jon.

[@moneymakingmikeg.9555]

Absolute BESTEST part of this video is the fact I got to kill 43+ mins. while on the clock at work to watch it!!! It was a nice change of pace to essentially watch an entire step bye step build Jon!! Hoping all is well Bud, Dirty Jersey out!!

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thanks Mike!

[@elmargoble5164]

Love this project and the format. Also you proved that even you are human by making the mistakes and how to resolve and move on! ❤

[@simpleyeteffective233]

This is my next project! Please keep these videos coming - they’re incredibly useful!

[@alonzohollingsworth7712]

Great instructional format video. I get a lot out of your videos, from the approach to the execution as well as the tips sprinkled in between. Keep them coming👍👍

[@jimcwerenz9185]

I really enjoy your videos. You’re a very good teacher. Keep this format going forwards.

[@jscook54]

Love this format. So helpful and I learn a lot for my future builds. Thank you for your work.

[@ronaldspeier4024]

Hi Jon, these was again a very good video. I liked the format very well, especially that you also left the imperfections in and explained what went wrong. Please continue with the format and many thanks for the invested time!

[@luigiseli2552]

Love the format . . . Thanks for your time

[@user-zk4eb6hg3w]

Спасибо, Джон. Просто замечательно! Немного природного материала, много старания плюс философия созидания и получается гармония - искусство из под рук мастера. Традиция в мастерстве, традиция в истории.

[@howler5000]

Great video format and please continue them. I really appreciate seeing your entire process.

[@briang5307]

Wood accent at base is a nice touch you don’t see too often. Looks great! Thanks for the great content.

[@fredkoch1109]

Thank you John. I really enjoy you instructional videos.

[@frank_jk]

This was great. I’m just getting started but your build is great inspiration. I’d certainly watch more of these. Thanks!

[@chrisp7957]

Beautiful piece of furniture, I really enjoyed watching and learning from you. Hope there are more in the future like this.

[@djbrown8900]

Love your videos and especially this type of format. Please keep them coming.

[@robinganzel1082]

Excellent video. Completely enjoyed. Please continue with this format.

[@truthymchurtsalot7188]

Absolutely love this format. You explain every step you’re making with ease and clarity. Your furniture designs are stellar. Love the bead moulding at the base in white and the sapele natural. #noepoxy 😂

[@nils1953]

Very educational thank you! Greatly appreciated that it's all in one part.

[@keith7630]

I’ve just come across your channel and have watched a couple of your long build videos. I have to say, your presentation and skill level is top notch. It’s almost as if I’m watching a modern version of The New Yankee Workshop.

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thank you Keith! That’s really nice to hear. Have a happy Thanksgiving 🍁

[@keith7630]

@@JonPetersArtHome You’re very welcome, Jon. I call it like I see it. 🙂 Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family as well!

[@jaymond80]

Great tutorial video! Thanks Jon

[@fishhead1108]

Really a great video Jon, thank you so much for the detailed build.

[@dominickmendoza7813]

Great video and project, Jon. Thank you for the concise instruction, from cutting and assembling to finishing. I enjoyed it, and will get to work on one or two for my granddaughters.

[@thinkpad3220]

First time to view your video and you seem to be a cut above the other how to videos. You are an excellent teacher. Maybe its my preference but you address so many of the questions I would have. Thank you for your investment into the videos

[@kenc2257]

Nice. Enjoyed this "teaching" format. That bookcase is incredibly sturdy--it will be holding books and electronics (or something else) in another 100 years.

[@DavidBishopinc]

Another excellent project and video from a master of his craft. Happy thanksgiving Jon.

[@genejarussi3731]

I appreciate this format and look forward to more. Thanks

[@funvideos2633]

You make it look easy. I always get a few tips from your videos. Thanks.

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Really nice to hear! Thanks!

[@DennisDillon73]

Love the show and tell aspect of your videos.

[@David-ew9rg]

Great video and project. Love the terrific instructional format. It may be a longer video but very in depth and simplifies the entire process.

[@cdinusha1]

Great lesson Jon, really enjoyed a true craftsman explaining all the thinking behind each step!

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thank you!

[@ericpetitclerc5519]

Thank you for showing a cool project, and leaving the mistakes in the video... I learn a lot more by seeing what can go wrong.

Clean, sturdy, well proportioned, that's a beatiful piece

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thank you!
