Diresta: Bandsaw Biplane

[@chandu527]

Am i the only one who noticed how he wrapped the sand paper around the body to get the perfect fit for the cockpit thingy.. Damn that was really awesome. Never ever in my 1000 lives would i have thought of that

[@dave5194]

I know right? Lateral thinking at it's best

[@bezerranono]

Is It in 3:45?

[@AlfFisher]

You're not the only one, such as at least 18 (now)%)))

[@Bigbrank]

yeah i notice the same thing, it's so simple and clever that amaze me

[@CrankyPantss]

I noticed it and thought it was very smart. I don't think I ever would have thought of doing that, but it makes perfect sense.

[@johnconklin9039]

This is what makes Mr. Diresta so amazing to watch. He can see what that biplane looks like in his mind and create it. I could have photos, plans and full patterns and still not have it come out as good.

[@alsmith1025]

i can watch Jimmy D on the band saw for hours. He's living proof what experience and talent can do.

[@ptstrong3]

Mr. Diresta, I know you have practiced and honed your skills since a early age. I think you have gotten even better in the years I've been watching you. hats off to you yet again. I think out of everything we have watched you build this is for sure one of my favs. great work

[@pauljoseph8338]

I don't know what to be more impressed with...your incredible bandsaw skills, or that you still have all your fingers! Nice work.

[@blank5390]

I love this guy..infact my entire 150 personal staff love watching him! So I made an office rule to have Jimmy time. Jimmy time is where we all gather in our meeting hall and put on Jimmy videos. It soothes our stress levels. Thank you Jimmy!

[@akquicksilver]

Love the sound of a radial engine, the wood mellows it out nicely!

[@jaywest4102]

Love this video. Made me remember watching helping/hindering my grandpa make toys for us when we visited.

[@aintgonnahappen]

The freehand propeller was just awesome. Great work Jimmy!

[@EngineerBrunS]

I need return to childhood and play this biplane

[@EngineerBrunS]

[@AlfFisher]

[@roberterickson77]

Never a dull moment in Jimmy's world. Great build and video.

[@bobduck1951]

Awesome bandsaw work. And great job. Retired USAF and flying enthusiast for most of my life. You got it right.

[@springwoodcottage4248]

Magical! Such symmetry, smoothness & proportion all free hand, just incredible skill & then the lovely animation, just so beautiful. Thanks for making me smile.

[@danielburnett753]

This was a great build. The best part was when the motor turned over and the plain took off. Great touch.

[@ggcarpentry7924]

Just Gold Jimmy, I've watched everything you have done and I'm still seeing new tricks. Thanks for sharing.

[@andyandnancy]

Mr. Diresta, You are my hero! More importantly, my 11 year old son loves the bandsaw, and you're also one of his hero's!

[@andyandnancy]

ps. I liked this video before the ending, and after the flight around the shop I wished I could like it twice.

[@veronica5896]

+Andrew Kavanagh Me too!

[@CrownMountainWoodworks]

I didn't read the description until after watching the video. The whole time I was thinking... this would have been awesome for Steve Ramsey's fundraiser. Cheers to you, Jimmy! Awesome little plane too.

[@jeff41768]

Wood carving with the bandsaw. excellent work ! You are by far the best video woodworker/maker on KZbin. Your videos inspire me to go and make something. I really mean it. Thanks again

[@drummerboyz55]

there is something just so pleasing about your videos

[@PeterOConnl]

A man at one with his tools. Superb craftsmanship.

[@eflizotte]

Your skill with a bandsaw is unparalleled!

[@gsilcoful]

Very very awesome. Bravo. You deserve a standing ovation.

[@AmusementLabs]

It seems Jimmy has returned to his childhood by making the last part of this video into a Red Baron-esce biplane stop motion adventure! Bravo! :)

[@GiacoWhatever]

Ok the end made my day!!! :)

[@MarcSchaefermeyer]

Totally agree! I was hoping for something and he totally surpassed my expectations!

[@Xyienced]

same :)

[@juneseopark1403]

Me too! : )

[@500agk]

woodworking memes :D

[@DougKeeling]

What a fun build! I totally wasn't expecting the flight - that was a great surprise! And as always, those bandsaw skills are just insane.

[@braindamage730]

awesome build Jimmy always doing something awesome

[@Braeden123698745]

Told you he could do anything on the bandsaw.

[@disabledwoodworker]

Your bandsaw skills are awesome!! Especially on that propeller!!

[@0kAndrew]

All i can say is thanks, keep it up jimmy; vides may seem simple but they are a joy to those who appreciate the art.

[@WildmanTech]

I love watching you work.

[@gastonb8596]

What a great display of craftsmanship, I was so anxious to see how will jimmy do the propeller that I will have to see the video again 😁

[@55dougie]

Crazy skills with the bandsaw....... awesome.... Very nice build.

[@awesomeinprogress4189]

Wow, you Jimmy are just an awesome wizard. If I gain only a tenth of the comfort level that you have with the bandsaw, I know I can do amazing things. Keep up the Great work. Lots of love and respect from Norway 🙂

[@DOODLEND]

The propeller is amazing. Such nice work

[@Nermash]

One of your best makes Jimmy.

[@SkullyWoodMetal]

You are the only bandsaw wood carver I know of. Awesome work as usual.

[@rationalicthus]

Been watching for years. Best video yet! You are a MASTER on the bandsaw.

[@javajoe8980]

Loved the end! And the build, of course!

[@shaunbarrickman6339]

It's insane how easy you made that look!!

[@SteveRamsey]

Never too late to make a plane! We will have another fundraiser this fall making something else. Hope you can join in!

[@GeekBuildersNet]

Love seeing those bandsaw skills...

[@liawensink]

Again an awesome video from my favorite KZbin channel! Thanks

[@SuperYtviewer]

Its always awesome to watch someone carve with a band saw. Stretches the mind to see the possibilities of a tool. Not to mention its one kewl bi-plane. - thanks for the video. - Annie

[@FarmCraft101]

Awesome as always Jimmy! Got a real lol out of me at the end when it "started up". Bravo!

[@TransientMobile]

Jimmy isn't just a maker, he's a bandsaw artist. Very nice work as usual Jimmy!

[@fedrooster]

Jimmy Diresta, master of the bandsaw. Awesome!!

[@protect.your.digits.creations]

Jimmy you have perfected the art of carving with a bandsaw craft , It is now called DiResta-ing from this day forward...Protect your DIGITS

[@johnnydam5730]

Great work Jimmy. This was a fun watch and you nailed the ending!

[@greyg142]

That's great Diresta. My daughter loves snoopy and had asked me to make her a Red Baron plane. Now I can! Thanks!!

[@gavinhill4121]

Loved that Jimmy - esp the animation and sound effects at the end. Awesome

[@kevinwalsh6450]

You are an absolute wizard on the bandsaw

[@DeaconWoodworks]

Nice bandsaw work, Jimmy. I also love the stop motion ala Frank Howarth!! 🍻

[@Philpro68]

Love this! Can't for the life of me figure out how ANYONE can give this video, or ANY of Jimmies videos a thumbs down?? He's the kind of woodworker we should all strive to be like.

[@lylekobberstad8571]

Great build. You've become quite the skilled artisan with the bandsaw.

[@felixfromnebraska8648]

Awesome Build!!! You are so talented, you must see the plane inside the block of wood... Thanks for sharing!!! Felix

[@jboyers1]

Beautiful work. I really enjoy your creativity.

[@joeldunn334]

Totally amazing, going to make one of these ,Diresta you are a timber genius,and enjoy watching your videos,keep up the good work.

[@ImranKhan-kq3nw]

Awesome. Great job on the biplane.

[@alooshalshammari5915]

goes along nicely with your sculpture resin figures

[@Jout2989]

loved the special effects!

[@fasfan]

I was thinking how funny it would be if after you spun the propeller a couple times it started up and took off. And then it did. That was awesome. I did not expect that in a Diresta video. Your bandsaw skills are incredible.

[@AaronVozzolo]

Awesome as usual...never get tired of watching your bandsaw work! Loved the ending with the airplane sounds...unexpected and so good!

[@c.brooks7199]

is there anything you can't do on a bandsaw.......love watching you work !!!

[@RaycoRedFox]

Made one of these with my dad years ago, I loved it. Now that I've seen this Video I want to make it again.

[@hermannstraub3743]

Awesome! You win that competition.

[@rajivjadav3294]

This guy could make a Christmas dinner with a band saw 😂😂😂😂 keep up the amazing work !

[@igorkrstic8060]

Freehanded style ... You're the best ! Very nice video.

[@ranjdall]

Now I need a bandsaw. Or maybe try this out on my coping saw? In any case the chipmunks singing country on the plastiwood scene gave me a laugh. Awesome work jimmy 👍👍👍

[@Apesmedia]

Freehanding the propeller was quite amazing!

[@eln74]

Awesome video Mr. DiResta, tnx for sharing it!!

[@FliteTest]

Very cool project!

[@mistersmith3986]

Another amazing job. Thank you friend!

[@TheHandystanley]

Jimmy, the plane is so cool. Just loved how the propeller moved as if there was a real engine in it. I can just see you with a WWI leather aviators helmet on. BTW, really enjoyed hanging with you at Windy City my friend.

[@ChicoMillion]

OMG you are a master with the bandsaw, awesome project!

[@nickvoebel6424]

Very cool, loved the ending!

[@claterpult]

I love that you listen to the Chipmunks while you make a really classy toy. Great ending!

[@LynnLaceyLLWW]

Some pretty good band saw work there my friend, with great results.

[@crolodon8024]

Haha dude, this is a chill plane & the sequence at the end with the engine noise was chill as well.

[@MattDiresta]

great project! love the stop motion and ending!

[@magnificentcharter1586]

Nice tail dragger! and good job managing through the low ceiling. VFR, I presume.

[@Syncubus]

Band-saw Samurai! Nicely done!

[@MarkChapnell]

wow! stunning craftsmanship Jimmy. I don't think I'll ever be that good even if I had as much experience as you. got confused at the end though,almost thought I was watching a Frank Howarth video

[@ianciborowski2983]

YES, THAT ENDING WAS AWESOME

[@jamesnichols7583]

Awesome as usual love watching your work you do such cool things

[@motzemog]

The special effects at the end were top notch! Ha!

[@timsway]

how the heck did you get that fly to land on the propellor? 8:17

[@MarcSchaefermeyer]

Haha! I didn't notice it and checked it. Awesome!

[@timsway]

my time mark is a little late. go back a few seconds and you'll see it land

[@MarcSchaefermeyer]

+tim sway yeah I did!

[@GiacoWhatever]

AhahahAh they do what he says...

[@grahamefreestone5309]

It wasn't a real fly. It was a "prop". (groan) I'll let myself out. Lol.

[@BradleyMakesThings]

This was pretty rad, Jimmy! Buddy of mine is having son born any day now. Wanted to start making toys for him so I might get started with this one!

[@DigitalSwagg]

Super Cool! Nice Job Jimmy

[@StirlingLighthouse]

Wow! That wood alcohol engine fired right up! She runs great for being so fresh! lol Nice build.

[@bilalhafeez9188]

The last part was the best and i see like everybody can do this progect it just needs a saw and sandpaper cool thinking DIRESTA btw Thanks A Lot!!

[@alonzosanchez8577]

That Was Awesome Jimmy, Great Video!!!

[@80Facepalm08]

[@LizMatzelle]

[@DimitriMasson]

Nice, I love the tory you have told in this video

[@Makebuildmodify]

That thing sounds soooo real!

[@kendon81]

[@fast_n_fowledlife8603]

[@MartinLegare]

I was about to ask : Yeah but does it flyes ? Your ending shut me up ! LOL Nicely done... again !

[@iDeviceChgr]

Nice work Jimmy!

[@BrianSmith-rz3uf]

Way to go Jimmie. Now I'm going to have to make one for my grandsons. BTW, I love watching your videos, and learn a lot from them. But since I'm a high school woodshop teacher and you break every safety rule ever invented, I don't tell my students about you:)

[@SuperiorEtchworx]

hehe I wouldn't show my boys this either
