[@ricog8209]

Great craftsmanship. Satisfying ASMR. Who said you couldn't have it all. 🖒

[@Madebyraphael]

Thank you very much Rico😊😁

[@rrssantos]

Amazing work my friend . I’m so impressed. Congrats

[@pdjkmiller5684]

Is it art? Is it music? Or is it an instructional video. At one point, I closed my eyes and just listened to the sounds😊

[@Lordblasphemer]

love your work, simple yet elegant and timeless.

[@donnapalaussie19]

Again simply beautiful 🤍 Raphael, I’d like to mention how impressive your workshop is also. So well organised, neat clean and tidy 👌 🌟

[@lindsaymunro7791]

I love your videos!! This one was amazing. Not too much music, not too much camera movement. Everything about this was amazing. I have a tv stand I made similar to this last year and it was cool to watch you make this. Thank you for having a youtube channel because it is amazing. Don't stop making videos!

[@Madebyraphael]

Wow! Thank you very much Lindsay! Thanks for your time and lovely feedback! Really appreciate it 😊

[@Madebyraphael]

Wow! Thank you very much for kind words 😉👍

[@aussieronnie]

Awesome project and really well shot 👍🏻 All the other jigs are Kreg, but what is the dowel jig you used?

[@gregstee]

It's a Wolfcraft one I think. I have the same one, very useful.

[@stevedockery3534]

What a great looking piece of furniture. You're a craftsman with a good eye for detail. I wish I could figure out your curves on base. Fantastic job. Steve in FL

[@Madebyraphael]

Thank you so much Steve👍😊

[@michalso9398]

Great. I d consider making some notches where shelf is resting on metal pins, so shelf wouldnt slide back and front, because there is no back plate in the middle section

[@cherellemcclelland4223]

What a pleasure to watch, the final product was stunning. Absolute talent 😍😍😍

[@Madebyraphael]

So glad you like it! Many thanks 😊

[@mariamontana1575]

Beside the spectacular woodcraft, I got to say whoever is filming and editing is doing a fantastic job!

[@Madebyraphael]

Thank you! Filming and editing myself 👍😊

[@davidtaft1180]

Raphael, love to see this side of your work. You are very talented.

[@Madebyraphael]

Thank you so much David😊

[@440ChryslerV8]

You didn't say a word, but I learned a lot! Subscribed. Thank you.

[@woodbutcher]

I'm obsessed with your videos mate!

[@DineshKhemani]

Awesome work ! What is the brand of the doweling jig you're using to align and center the dowels?? Keep up the great work.

[@shirleycranswick8476]

Raphael i could watch you work all day. I love your way with the wood and showing it to it's best advantage. This Media Cabinet is absolutely stunning. There are people out there making furniture and it's ok, it's really ok, but yours takes it to another level. I love that you designed and made this whole thing yourself. I think it's about time now to give up the day job and be the wood genius that you are. From furniture makeovers to your own design and made line. Truly remarkable. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Take care. Shirley.

[@Madebyraphael]

And again😁😉😁😁😁 Thank you so much!!! Have a lovely evening 😊😊😊

[@wut255]

I'm curious why after such beautiful dowel work on the top piece, you went with pocket holes and screws on the bottom?

[@paulfenton734]

Beautiful work. I'd love to know if you have a recommended supplied for your birch plywood. Subscribed.

[@fgkhristan]

Woooow. More plywood furniture please!!

[@Madebyraphael]

Haha thank you so much 😊

[@sternenpolizei]

[@alexg19751]

Прямые руки + хороший инструмент = прекрасный результат.

[@dhrwlsdn]

Great work! What kind of oil do you use? Any brand in particular? Your finish looks really natural. I have hard time finding videos for finishing birchplywood. It might be a great idea if you make a video on how to finish birch

[@rclazienki]

I wondered as well what kind of oil or maybe poly have you used. Looks amazing.

[@Madebyraphael]

I'm using transparent oilwax

[@rclazienki]

@@Madebyraphael osmo?

[@andyfreiman4266]

Amazing work! I may have missed it in the comments but what finish did yo use?

[@eternos_yt]

[@dominicbageeyo]

Hello what was the white stuff you put on before completing the project?

[@laureenreavey4900]

[@siskse]

You never disappoint! Fabulous cabinet!

[@Madebyraphael]

Thank you very much Susan😊😁

[@manu-phatak]

You made this look easier than putting together Ikea furniture.

[@reaper060670]

I love the little touches when u do the close ups with the camera.. It's classic bro. It's the Birch Plywood I absolutely love. Is Maple Ply as good and how expensive is an 8X4 sheet of this stuff. I'm a question guy so I'm about to apologise ahead of time for this.. Do u do plans for all ur builds? How thick is the Ply for the outer shall and is the shelving and doors the same width or do u use 2 different sizes/width/thickness of Plywood when building a piece of ART like this. I love how u make the legs on this piece. Also was there a reason why u didn't cover in the pocket holes on the under side of the cabinet?? I get it make's things easier if ur moving?? Again my apologies for so many questions bro. I love the work u did and the peaceful way in which u make ur projects. U make it about the woodworking and not u. A few words at the end just to explain where u got the inspiration from or whatever would be great man. I never read the description of any videos so I don't know where u live. I'm watching from Ireland and will be an avid viewer of ur work from now on. I love Plywood. I caught the bug only a few months ago. I have no experience of woodwork except for minor nits and bobs in the house. I want this now at this stage of my life. It's like I found my passion at long last bro. I'm 50 this year too.. LMAO. It only took me a half century to find something I was really into doing as a hobby/ lifestyle choice. I love working with wood now. Take it easy pal and keep cranking out these sick projects.

[@gailynrorie4669]

And by the way excellent carpenter skills the stuff is legit
