عمل متقن كما العادة👏👏👏

[@nateknudson8500]

Glen, I don't know if you actually read these comments, but I wanted to tell you what these videos mean to me. My Father-in-Law lost his entire home and woodshop in the fires 3 weeks ago in Northern California. He's living with me now and we're using your videos to help him rebuild his tool capabilities one station, one tool, one build at a time. Thanks for making these.

Братка !!!!! У тебя клей сделан из радиоактивных отходов атомной подводной лодки ????????? Почему ты в маске ??????

[@DanielWilliams-ry6ub]

This guy does everything right. The music is cool, but it is appropriately 'background ' music while his voice audio is right on and easy to understand. Love his tips and advice.

[@Certified_Art_Teacher]

The "Where I'm At" part should be your trademark. Something so small makes a HUGE difference. Thanks Glen!

[@Jeedehem]

OMG. I’m 1.5 min in, and the guy just freehanded a perfect 12’’ straight line. My respect is immense.

[@advocatus360]

There is something comforting for a DIYer like myself to see you using harbor freight clamps and Worx tools... it makes this hobby seem more approachable than the Bessey and Festool videos.

[@jeffreychaffins3188]

Great job on the build. I really like the "Where I'm At" reference during the video.

[@scottdreitlein363]

"where I'm at" feature is awesome. Great job building this with basic tools that everybody has access to. No need for bandsaws, drill press, or stand alone sanders. Thanks for sharing what you would change about it too, like the outlet placement. Keep up the great work

[@TheyCallMeScifi]

Seriously this! I don't think I've seen anyone else do that as they are assembling their project. Super helpful to visualize how things are doing together as the build happens.

[@blackattack2469]

I live WISH and your channel! As a senior just learning your delivery is the best. Thank you!

[@3110luigi]

The "where I'm at" window is a nice touch. Great job.

[@MarkSmith-cd2bx]

You know when guys are good at what they do, they make it look easy, as does this guy. Best from the U.K.

[@christopheryale6867]

Your "Where I'm At" quick overlays are one of the most helpful video tools I've seen a youtube creator use. Great touch!

[@unclesunbro1577]

I really appreciate the model being shown in the corner of the video as you work on each piece. I wish more KZbinrs did this. These videos are so well done and projects are relatively simple and seem very convenient. Thank you for the high quality.

[@peterdejoseph5197]

I like the way you did your draws with no hardware. Nice build

[@michaelmartin1835]

The "Where I'm at" feature is great! A lot of KZbin creators should take note of that. Nice job!

[@jamesmaitino9581]

As a beginner wood maker I am pretty sure I can follow your directions. Thanks

[@marsmediapro]

This is the absolute BEST diy router table I have witnessed being built! You are such a skilled craftsman! Thank you for sharing!

[@larryweesejr1441]

I really like your diagram it in the right hand corner showing where you are in the build very ingenious

[@daveperrin9408]

Great job Glen. One bit of advice I like is don't make the hole to big you don't want your bits falling out ☺️ really like your ideas top man 👍

[@jjsdad4952]

Don't know what it is about you and your DIY videos but after tons of options, I chose your workbench about a year ago as my first real build, came out great! And now I'm choosing this for my router table. Thanks so much for the Dy-No-Mite content.

[@free-energy-systems]

Possibly what deters many people from getting into wood working is not having all of the tools. Myself, I use all cordless tools because I can't work at home. This means basically the only power tools I use are a palm router, drill, circular saw and an orbital router. Set up is everything and when I build something, once I know how to make the set up easier, it's kind of nice actually working outdoors. :)

[@Kucingkebun-o8y]

all the tools are sophisticated and really inspire me to be even better ... the knowledge is very useful, thank you greetings from jambi-indonesia carpenters

[@markandrews7116]

love the whole idea of Limited Tools and ESPECIALLY the Where I'm At" feature - really helps a great deal

[@shanewestlydano1142]

You have great idea to make a bemchtop router table. Continue to share your knowledge to us

[@thomaspigg306]

I like the design, layout and fabrication of this. You show that you don't have to have thousands of dollars worth of tools to get a very nice finished cabinet. These steps can be used by almost anyone to build a cabinet of any size, shape or design. Thank You Sir!!! (Next step is subscribe!)

[@blue04mx53]

Excellent instructions . I want to build one. I bought the plywood which wasn't too expensive about 40 bucks. But that single piece of acrylic would cost me $112.00 at Home Depot. (Or Lowe's) Because the smallest piece I can get is 18 inches by 36 inches in that thickness. That puts this project out of my price range as I can get a router table for about 100 bucks.

[@vettecurley]

I've seen a few other tables on youtube but by far, yours is the best! Thanks

[@elfpimp1]

Lol, this is the first DIY router table build video where the videographer ACTUALLY USES A ROUTER to build it!! Great Vid. Looks like this is my style to build.

[@christianbookter1016]

You do the best video that I have ever watched. Really nice work.

[@arnoldbernela304]

Superbe réalisation, bien pensée astucieuse et esthétique. GOOD JOB!

[@jacquesvictor4232]

I got my router mounting plate from Wish. Comes with those centre hole inserts for different size bits. Works awesome.

[@majorbloodnock4281]

This is the first video on this subject that I have found where a safety/cut off switch was included in the build nice simple instructions clearly stated well done nice video

[@mec_nyc]

Glen, you're an absolute gem! All the best.

[@DIYCreators]

Thanks Friend!

[@arnoldkokonya]

Glen, you are not alone. I have never heard of that app in my life. I actually never thought there'd be such an app. So we sail in the same boat. Thanks for the video. Very detailed.

[@idiotluggage]

Really cool build. I liked the image of the table identifying what you were currently working on.

[@karendavis6838]

Great build. I'm going to use your drawer design..... Multiple projects!

[@MsRellaBee]

Wow! I stumbled on your video when looking for router table DIYs. Your's is not basic but it's elegant and functional. I love the "where I'm at" feature. I won't download Wish again, but I will subscribe to your channel. Thanks.

[@jeffkushen5586]

Well explained and I love the little diagram that shows 'Where I'm at'! Very nice! Thank you!

[@jameslund221]

Wow , I really need this. I’m a little intimidated right now, not so sure of myself. Awesome job!

[@wehaveasaying]

The "Where I'm At" graphic was a fantastic addition. I really enjoyed this build and look forward to attempting it myself. I just have to clean out my garage first...

[@kenty2831]

Well done sir, I am looking forward to learning how to use routed as well, this station will make it very convenient.

[@chrishousholder4831]

I’m getting ready to make a router box myself. Your design is genius.

[@roberthampton7360]

Thanks for doing this video. I have been watching tons of videos for a diy router table. This is a beautiful piece. Right size a d has storage. I'm making this.

[@seanposkea]

I have no opinion on Wish or thumb drives, but I've been looking at a lot of DYI router table designs and yours is a great balance of function and simplicity. I think you've come up with a nice design.

[@JPToto]

Nice work, Glenn! Simple but effective. The "Where I'm at" callouts are a GREAT idea. That's helpful.

[@Rick_Bagnall]

Nice design! I like the fact that it can be clamped off the edge of a table also.

[@will8257]

Great build! And HUGE props for the "where I'm at" addition! Also really appreciate the minimal tools needed approach. Subscribed.

[@kitcarson9047]

Mr. Glenn thank you for your time and effort for showing us tricks of the trade the router table is very nice... good job brother.... As for Wish.... Perhaps some day they will wish they had a company!

[@DiZZiEntertainment]

You have no idea how excited I was to hear the classic DIY Creators song as the first song. You my man are the real MVP for bringing it back.

[@RockingWomble]

I love this video, but most of all the fact you make a point of giving tips for people who do not have every tool ever created in the world. Keep up the great work!!!

[@ShinobiAlphaOG]

Not sure what wish you were using, the one I ordered from still has pending order from 2 years ago. Love your work through. Dig your style

[@MrBlink666]

Dude, the 'where i'am at' feature : such a good idea for us to follow you even better : great job on your videos I love it

[@jamesdugan3835]

Just starting to learn woodwork, and that was just simply Awesome! But probably out of my reach for a while....thanks for the inspiration.

[@Knifemaresama]

Very very nice "where I'm at" thing, never seen it before, it really helps when building

[@dragonlee4065]

I came to look for how to build a kitchen island but kept on watching more of your interesting videos. Great work you do out there and helping others too, keep it up bro and thank you for sharing it

[@ronemtae3468]

Nice right angled plug replacing that street plug will give you a significant amount of room nice job

[@dondale68]

Great idea to bring an E STOP right out to you! I will be adding an E STOP to a couple of my machines!

[@marklloyd3536]

Excellent video, thank you very much very clear and informative with minimum of pointless verbiage. Can’t use Wish here in the UK

[@rebeccaboyette866]

Glen, thanks for an awesome build. I believe I could do this. Your instructions are da bomb!

[@mcorrade]

Your not alone my friend. I very often forget to shim with paper. Sanding is my best friend :\

[@ManCrafting]

Turned out really nice Glen. This is on my todo list. Right after about 50 other things.

[@John316Ross]

Images in the corner are on point man!

[@anjledube7026]

Glenn this is genius absolutely amazing but that's the way you roll. Glad to see you yes it has been a while. The State of Florida has now deemed me disabled man that took a lot I never thought at this age that I would be but after the fall a year ago it didn't take him too long of a Time to get in touch with me and let me know I cried I worried what can I do what I can't do it's always what I can do and that's how I'm trying to live my life with that being said I thank you for always being here for me always saying an extra prayer and always making things that are amazing! PS I am still waiting on my tiny house now come on Glenn please?! God bless peace be with you much love and respect have an awesome day!

[@BossSpringsteen69]

Beautiful work!!!

[@claudeelliott3993]

Nice design and craftsmanship.

[@wb_finewoodworking]

That small router table with storage came out great. Something like this would be super as an extra router table when a project requiems the use of multiple bits or setups.

[@mamarrachopunpun]

This one is fantastic, man. Just discovered your channel, and I am already planning to build some of your stuff! cheers from Spain.

[@chrisfach4]

Very nice job, the "where I'm at" illustration was really cool too!

[@MichaelSmith-nk4yq]

Really enjoyed this build as I am just about to make a Router Table 👍🏾👍🏾

[@vespa2223]

Wow, this is cool, but what it really did for me was help me think of how to make an easy work table for my small garage. I am going to buy a used desk, flip it upside down and add a 3/4 (maybe one inch) plywood "top". If I flip the drawers upside down....well, tool storage. Thanks.

[@fredackrill]

Lovely clear video, thanks for your hard work.

[@weekendwarrior9570]

Excellent video and process. Thank you for sharing.

[@TotoGuy-Original]

very nice build i been looking at several router tables lately i cant find one i like fully so im going to take idea's from several creators

[@fredmuehter3307]

Glen, love yr creative approaches to all your designs without breaking the bank! One question: why not just use the plexiglass you have rather than sheet metal for the router plate? Would that be less effort (and you could look down the throat easier)?

[@hgtydjdjdgh67889]

I love the new graphics on the top right

[@carolinaoverload327]

Been watching your videos all night. Wish I had skills like you...but now I'm motivated to go make some saw dust. Thanks!

[@mrfaw7530]

Thanks a lot for the wonderful idea and the video I want to build the same. I like your work and the minimal tool approach, awesome and this video is great for the ones like me who are learning. Thank you so much and keep it up.

[@FinallyMe78]

You are very creative. Keep up the good work.

[@jondavis2206]

So much thought and detail. Very impressive!!

[@SecretStashBrosBuilds]

Agreed

[@stuartschnare152]

Like how you keep things relatively simple yet provide many features. Great concise explanations in your videos.

[@cj5782]

You do excellent work my man. I think your ideas are convenient, easy, and practical. I appreciate the tips and plan to continue to watch your work. Thanks!

[@barryquinn5840]

Really enjoy your videos, great presentation and nice projects. I'm glad you're using a proper table saw these days, the homemade circular saw ones are great to build but can be really dangerous.

[@dennisreichert7688]

I love the where you at screen!

[@christiangibbs8534]

Thanks so much! I love what you have done here. You've given me some great ideas for my own table.

[@kennethturner7942]

This is such a great video man! I've been looking at buying a router table, but I think with your plans I can build it, and build it cheaper than buying one with the added bonus of making it mine and customizing it to meet my needs. I appreciate your videos, keep em' coming!

[@16minimonster16]

I loved watching this! Your work is mind blowing! Jaw was on the ground! Looks very professionally done, stain, paint and design!

[@jbb5470]

Great addition to your shop! The project turned out great and really looks good. I would like to add that I found this video very good as well. The music you included in the background added to the enjoyment of the production!

[@jackkolnerhoeck8210]

I'm very greatfull forma your proyect it's amazing how simplicity you explain it all....thank you very much ... saludos cordiales desde Chile 👏 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@napnapnop]

Great great great!!!!! keep up the good work and bring us more videos!!!!!!!!!

[@AK-de3ej]

Awesome project and great work. I appreciate that you share your knowledge and experience. The way you use router is very smart. Many thanks to you.

[@galland3496]

Yes I like the "where I'm at" in the video. This is a really good and absorbing video, Thank you.

[@georgepatton9744]

Beautiful craftsmanship!

[@tareqidan6684]

Your work is amazing man , I like it ... well done

[@mikegtsd]

Thank You. You always have great designs and your instructions excellent.

[@jessiejacksoniii6471]

Nice project!!! That would very useful project for I myself am on the path to being a DIY... I'll be sure to be making this table for it is very simple to get a big design done. Thank you.

[@lfcbpro]

Fantastic video, great explanation but the brilliant part is the "where I'm at", often lose track of where the instructors are talking about on vid, but this makes it super easy to visualise :)

[@1980JPA]

I watch a lot of woodworking vids on KZbin, especially being a home remodeler by trade, but somehow hadn't seen your channel before. I'm now binge watching your projects. 🤣 great job man. love the "where I'm at" diagram on this one. never seen that and it makes so much sense. keep up the good work man. I have a truck and shed full of tools, but i love the way you take into account the beginners possible lack of tools, and still manage to make a great product. though very simple, your vids kinda hit in a different way for me. don't know if it's your earnestness it what, but I like it. also love when I see my brothers spreading positivity. keep up the great work man. I'll keep watching. 😁👍🏾

[@loonyknight-1]

Excellent craftsmanship!

[@noneofurbusiness1464]

Thats awesome! great job! I am definately building this.

[@45bossdog]

I have been using Wish for about three months now it’s great highly recommend it

[@artagnan2061]

'where I am at' feature is great!

[@bryanstevens7785]

Love all your builds! You're a great craftsman and creator
