My 7 Plan Bundle: paskmakes.com/the-pask-makes-7-woodworking-plans-bundle/ This was a great project to start the new year. I was excited about it as soon as the design came together and I really enjoyed figuring out how to make the corners. :)

[@asdf35750]

Delightfully retro, Neil!

[@shoshinwoodworking459]

What a great project. Now I know the right way to make those corners. I did it the wrong way, but knew it at the time. My grain directions may end up fighting each other at some point. Time will tell how much. It was still quite the problem solving just figuring out how to get those nice rounded corners. I just didn’t go the step to glue up the blocks first. Thanks again. My next one will be better.

[@chocolateearrings]

Are the plans in paper copy or digital only?

[@matthelevi]

the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. kzbin.infoUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we wont be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.

[@aserta]

When the world needed him most, he returns,... with a Scrapwood Challenge!

[@youtukang]

👍👍👍

[@user-jm5pf5zj6d]

I am very thankful for the kzbin.infoUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO that has been a tremendous help to me in building a perfect outdoor shed. I have been facing many challenges and difficulties for a long time, but this plan has guided me to correct the mistakes during the process. I am impressed by the projects and I express my gratitude to the creator of this collection of plans.

[@Craftlngo]

this "scrapwood" you use is more beautiful than the most woods we can get here in Europe. Brilliant Work Neil!

[@kz.irudimen]

He calls it scrap because he gets it from a business that makes cutting boards and those are their "scraps". Definitely great looking wood that's for sure.

[@AnthonyBowman]

I would love to see Neil do a bigger piece with camphor laurel.

[@Craftlngo]

@@kz.irudimen I know. I've seen every Scrap wood challenge so far

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much - Camphor laurel really does look good and great to work with too. :)

[@FishersShop]

Looks fantastic! And so does that push stick! 😉

[@williammoore4101]

That push stick makes me want to create a KZbin channel and get nearly a million subscribers just so I can get one too!

[@JJ-db8jw]

Great looking push stick. Perhaps made from your neighbour's door or something?

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks Drew and thanks again for the push stick - it's awesome! :)

[@LostWhits]

The solution for drilling the mortices for the angled legs was really clever.

[@Greentrees60]

I didn't really understand how he did it - it looked like his holes were drilled at 90 degrees but obviously that isn't true. Could you explain how he did it?

[@LostWhits]

@@Greentrees60 the drill press table was at an angle. But by using a diagonal. It didn't require the hole to be drilled at two angles.

[@tech99070]

@@Greentrees60 That little red box he used let him set the table under the drill press at 10 degrees tilt

[@sbushido5547]

The shape definitely reminds me of a vintage radio. Looks great.

[@ThisRandomUsername]

Nice job making the comment stolen by the bot! Edit: Well it may be a bot, who knows.

[@nerop]

I've missed that intro - its almost always a sign of an interesting vid!

[@zyamadeadborn1785]

Same story here.

[@PaskMakes]

Glad you enjoyed it! I'll try and make more Scrapwood Challenge videos this year - I just need to think of some interesting ideas. :)

[@jebstuart8036]

Never worry about the length of a video. They can never be too long. Great project.

[@brucewelty7684]

I agree! I watch another Oz guy (CEE) machine and weld for 45 minutes.

[@ConcreteLand]

If I had access to a big pile of scrap wood like that, I would have a really big pile of scrap wood. Great build. Love it.

[@Vickie-Bligh]

That is going to be a piece of furniture Jess will love all her life, especially knowing it was made with love. It isn't childish but grown-up and will grow with her. I wish I had all of the things my dad had created. Well done, Mate. Well done indeed.

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much Vickie! :)

[@rushley5813]

Even with the "chunky" corners the cabinet looks great its got a really nice 1960s mod style look almost looks like a small console record player cabinet with the kumiko another brilliant design bravo

[@catey62]

To me it has a very 50's futuristic vibe to it..but the 60's theme suits it well too.

[@groreistad5234]

My husband thought I’d gone mad when I started jumping up and down with joy by your new upload. The jumping hurt my back though. The sacrifices we make for you… 🙄 Oh, and what an adorable little thing you made there, I love it every time you incorporate kumiko in your work. Thank you for sharing your beautiful projects with us 😀

[@PaskMakes]

Glad you enjoyed the project Gro! Hope you didn't hurt your back too badly. :)

[@die_rabenfrau]

A really beautiful project. I envy anyone who can create something like this, because unfortunately I have two left hands (as they say in Germany when someone is completely untalented). But it still makes me happy when I can watch such a pretty piece of furniture being made, and I say thank you for letting me watch. Kind regards from freezing cold Germany.

[@jamesa7506]

Just use your right foot to compensate for your two left hands! Should work, wouldn't be any worse. 😁

[@kori_snw]

Thanks for that. Sincerely, Lefty McLefterson :-)

[@JOSEPH-vs2gc]

i have two right hands, our kind should not have prejudices towards your kind. btw, having two right hands doesn't make me talented, it just gives me the feeling like i'm actually talented.

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much - glad you enjoyed the video! :)

[@stanleydenning]

Freaking gorgeous piece of furniture. I love it! It would also make a sweet speaker cabinet.

[@catey62]

Lol..that needs to be his next project..a matching of speaker cabinets in the same design.

[@darksquirel]

check out the channel make with miles, he made himself a guitar amp and guitar with kumiko

[@economyofmotion]

This is more than furniture. This is fatherhood. Wonderful.

[@tummy_fritters]

Clever solution for the legs. Those rounded corners give me a 60s 70s vibe, sort of like a vintage TV. Very cool project

[@dmaifred]

I've been building a circulating room filter as I have three cats and the hair drives me nuts. I am building a box with a fan inside and routing out a pattern in the panel that covers the filter. This looks perfect from the outside to house such a build. Plus I love japan, been 4 times pre c*vid. Lovely work.

[@rafezetter8003]

After 6 weeks as a Brit in the mayhem of New York City, coming back to watch you work is a blissful and most welcome change of pace, plus I get a "lightbulb" moment as a bonus.... I consider myself to be a fairly practical "common sense" kind of woodworker, but why oh WHY have I never thought to screw a hinge in place FIRST, then knife around it, instead of fiddling trying to hold AND knife it? I was just like "oh my god, why did I never think of that ????".

[@pirakoXX]

As so often before, a first-class handcrafted and astonishing piece of art. With so many details we can use in other projects as well. 👍 Thank you SO much, Neil, for all you give us!

[@samanthadean1083]

Scrapwood Challenge? And it’s Kumiko? Thank you!!! ❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@Vikingwerk]

Reminds me of a console TV from the 1970’s, and that is a good thing!

[@OriginalRaveParty]

5 Star attention to detail. Awesome work.

[@boryscholewinski4370]

Love the compass corner trick. Pask level of ingenuity. And the lathe-wrench-gauge.

[@jonathanking4107]

Thoroughly enjoyed this, what a beautiful piece of furniture. I really appreciate how you don't edit out your mistakes, as we can all learn from them. Thank you.

[@PaskMakes]

Glad you enjoyed it Jonathan! :)

[@BERNDWERK]

There he is again! I love your projects and the scrapwood challenge is always a highlight! Again a beautiful result!

[@PaskMakes]

Thank you - glad you enjoyed it! :)

[@thegroove2000]

G.DAY. YOUR EXPERIENCE/SKILL IS THE TRUE WORTH AND VALUE. WELL DONE THAT MAN.

[@georgecunningham9175]

While woodworking itself is a teachable/learnable craft, design, innovation and execution are talents - and you excel in all four of those principles. This piece has presence and personality and of course you created solutions to possible roadblocks in achieving your vision. I stand open-mouthed in admiration........................

[@ManieVerster]

Delightful to watch you! I learn from you a lot. I do not do woodwork but I learn to better myself as a person. Your meticulous way of putting things together makes me want to be better in what I do whether at work or at home. Thank you for your videos.

[@andrewgalbreath2101]

Love the corners! And mounting the legs on the diagonal is a really great idea!

[@davidwright640]

Using the open end wrench for sizing the lathe diameter is quite a new idea for me. Worth watching the whole video just for that. Thank you for all the good work.

[@nisamja7424]

You did exactly the same curved corners and tied them with biscuit joints like I did in one previous project (mine was a larger TV stand with drawers and glass doors). I did the inside bevels with slightly lesser cuts, but still ended up with a great piece. Nice to see the design approach is shared amongst woodworkers as I hate to see exposed endgrain on corners. Makes me feel like I am doing a chipboard project. I am yet to give kumiko a try and I hope to come up with a piece that integrates it very soon. Practice first.

[@PaskMakes]

Sounds great Nisam! :)

[@silox250]

Finally! Missed these, best series on youtube

[@dessertman1181]

A MASTERPIECE BUILT BY A MASTER PROFESSIONAL

[@kzookid2051]

A beautiful piece your daughter will treasure. Thanks so much for sharing it with us.

[@chodgson]

Beautiful design, flawless execution. I cant believe you have the patience to continue making kumiko... after all the work to make the rounded corners, then you add the kumiko too! I always enjoy watching you work!

[@IanSmithKSP]

Exotic work as always. It’s amazing that mid-century style furniture, which evolved to be made by machines, is so damn difficult to make by hand.

[@professor62]

Gorgeous, Neil! While I love to watch all your projects, I must say that Scrapwood Challenges are my absolute favorites. Please keep ‘em coming!

[@slipps74]

Neil I have to say that you are my favorite maker on KZbin. The thing I love about your videos is that you tend to make mistakes and you own up to them and that shows us even the greats can mess up here and there. Thank you and yes I have been waiting for a new video and got excited to watch it.

[@SaffronMilkChap]

Agreed! And after all, everyone will make mistakes, so it’s super valuable to learn strategies for recovering from them. You don’t get any of that if you never see mistakes being made.

[@apdj94]

I love the mid century modern look of your furniture projects and that camphor laurel lends itself nicely to that style especially once you get that hard wax on there

[@carolinefreeman4546]

I love all of your kumiko projects. You did this one so quickly you made it look easy. Just beautiful.

[@JDKempton]

The sound of the wood plane working is so satisfying

[@romyaz1713]

the style of this furniture piece is exceptional even without the door

[@lorainesteyn7445]

Lucky girl to have a dad like you. My dad did the same for me and I am forever grateful. The furniture he made is still in my home long after he passed away.

[@szcustomwoodworks6401]

I love those corners! And I am also very happy to finally see another Scrapwood Challenge.

[@tobiasbostwick9002]

A fine project, a striking outcome, and satisfying to watch. Thank you for sharing, Neil.

[@benjaminquist2011]

Thoroughly enjoy watching you make kumiko, what s fantastic use of scraps for the kumiko to go into! Always enjoy your videos, keep up the great work!

[@rickrudd]

Absolutely fantastic! Just incredible to watch come together.

[@woogaloo]

I'm still waiting for the second channel: Pask Makes Jigs. You have sooooo many! Awesome piece.

[@bfudge]

So glad these are back!

[@chems4369]

Constantly impressed by your projects, this one was really beautiful and so well made.

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much! :)

[@smsucks7174]

I’m sure Jessica knows she has a very, special Dad. Lovely piece 👍🏻

[@DocMicha]

Wow. It looks like an 1960ieth TV set my parents had at that time in their dining room. The rounded corners, the same feet with the angle and the blocks to mount them. The filling in the loudspeaker was a braiding. There were brass liners all around the front edges. And brass cups down at the feet. This tv was painted like a black steinway piano. And I remember it was made by Telefunken. And of course it was black and white.

[@dnngskn62]

This one displays your talent and skill. Big thumbs up.

[@guitlee]

One of your best project. Love the look and design.

[@nd9950]

What a beautiful project. Watching your problem solving was very helpful.

[@nabilgrimoult5514]

Very good job as usual. I will never be fed up with kumiko's job. Thanks a lot for your vidéos from Paris, France.

[@BernardSandler]

I love watching how skill builds on skill from project to project. Your own abilities are this channel's greatest build.

[@roncooper6302]

Brilliant as always. 28 minutes of brilliantly presented video flew past. Thank you.

[@glacialblueberry]

Wow this is an absolute heirloom piece! Masterful work.

[@nathantron]

looks amazing. Reminds me of old TV Sets.

[@pw.70]

You always make it look so easy! Excellent work - thanks for sharing.

[@motari6249]

Amazing work absolutely love the look and the craftsmanship ❤👍

[@rayzugar4776]

Really enjoyed the video. It's good how you can make beautiful furniture out of scrap pieces of wood. Nothing like recycling. Especially like the way you use a spanner to determine the diameter when turning. Looking forward to the next video.

[@R.Craig.Collins]

Yeah! scrapwood challenge returns!

[@peternewman9713]

Your daughter must be very proud of her talented dad!

[@JPToto]

Beautifully done, Neil! This helped demystify corner construction on furniture for me. I've never seen a good concise demonstration besides bending the wood. Thanks!

[@mumblbeebee6546]

Love the corner work, very neat! And yes, you have some stonking good wood down under!

[@saveriog.825]

Ahh... Scrapwood Challenge! I was missing that, happy to see it again. Love your projects!

[@makermarc70]

Love scrap wood challenge!

[@jacobhall1059]

Always love these Scrapwood Challenges!

[@RickMeasham]

Beautiful work! The proportions are so spot on in every way. But now I will have "scrapwood challenge" stuck in my head all day.

[@thealicemonster9217]

25:26 It really looks like a retro TV here. One of the ones that had a door in front of it to protect and hide the screen when not in use. You did a BEAUTIFUL job!

[@jowallace-blaker8202]

It looks absolutely amazing

[@frattman]

Wonderful as always. I had a hectic day and, short of having the energy or will to woodwork, watching you has helped me settle down :)

[@PaskMakes]

Glad it helped. :)

[@VeretenoVids]

Wow! This was another epic project. I'm glad your daughter loves it as much as nearly a million people on the internet. 😁 And I still crack up every time I hear the Scrapwood Challenge jingle--thank you for a bit of silly joy in my day.

[@JolienBrebels]

What a masterpiece, I love the way it looks!

[@beeleywood7796]

Stunning piece of work. Thanks for sharing

[@JDnBeastlet]

[@gonzobuilds6854]

Always great to see how your scrapwood ideas manifest into beautiful work equivalent to show pieces. You really demonstrate that it isn't the tools, it's the craftsperson and their creativity.
