The crypto jokes are getting old fast. So I added those terms to the blocked words. Feel free to post your funny crypto comment, it will now not bother me, nor anybody else.

[@VitaliySunny]

Why so serious, bro?

[@kvaks3000]

But getting upvotes for re-using easy jokes makes them feel ... clever, I guess?

[@deltafactory]

Did you figure out the vector used to compromise the second time? Would be good to know since I may have to support a client on this some day...

[@rodfrey]

Have you published this list anywhere? The last 2 times I posted comments they didn't appear, with no error message or indication of why. I assumed I'd been banned for some reason although I think I'm pretty friendly and courteous. Maybe I used a banned word.

[@stinkystream]

Glad you got your account back (again!)

[@ANDERU4YOU]

Did he mention if it was another email that he clicked on or did the scammers just manage to regain access somehow?

[@FrietjeOorlog]

Wat are the chances of a hat trick?

[@vulcanville]

I went looking for an update on Matt and noticed that everything looked normal but nothing new. Looks like we have to wait, or maybe Matt just wants to move on.

[@beefchicken]

He seems to want to pretend it didn’t happen. I’m guessing it was “operator error”, and he didn’t properly clean up his PC from the first hijacking. I used to love doing forensics on compromised servers. The root kits I would find would have modified versions of iptables, md5sum, top, ls, etc. that would make the compromise invisible to casual investigation. Really crafty stuff.

[@Jochen666]

Why „again“? Did he lose his account more than once?

[@Rickmakes]

Putting the piece in backwards and the tool falling on the floor is the realest woodworking I've seen on KZbin.

[@stamfordly6463]

I find that when I start doing the "Eff-up Fandango" like that it's generally time to go and put the kettle on.

[@gamertarians1634]

It makes me feel better about my own woodworking.

[@andrewsuderman]

Great to hear your son working in the background. I'd love to see what kind of stuff he comes up with.

[@dannyjepp985]

It looks like they're making a battle axe from something they found in the scrap bin. Love it!

[@TechnikJens]

Matthias Berger has some inspiring wood working with kids in KZbin. As a child it's the best that can happen to you to get into practical experience and using your tools/hands

[@kevola5739]

You got kids. Dad jokes are mandatory.

[@joe-edward]

Oh man, so glad you're okay. I was worried when you didn't give an update on your account. Re this video, thank you SO much for leaving the screw-ups in! As always, they are the funniest part AND they give us lay folk more confidence, since we all make these same errors all the time.

[@JPWack]

Excellent as always, love how you keep your mistakes in the exit and the dad joke elevated the content even more

[@matthiaswandel]

I now realize I missed the ooportunity to push the "up" button on the standing desk on top of it all!

[@stevenspmd]

Honestly, the screw ups are the best part, the shelves are nice too but the screwups are infinitely relatable.

[@zxhoon]

Came here to write, so good seeing mistakes made, items dropped, almost like we are all human haha

[@DaveKahn]

It's nice to be reminded he's human from time to time.

[@bradley3549]

This is one of my favorite videos of yours, recently for sure. One, it brought joy to me to see I'm not the only one where every project is a comedy of errors. Two, always a pleasure to hear the sound of children banging away learning their own way. And yes, with young children of my own I realize it's more fun to hear OTHER people's children making a racket.

[@deanrambler9006]

I am glad to see I am not alone when stuff goes wrong, falling off the bench, something assembled backwards...

[@davip5876]

fixing shelves to the bench instead of the wall can be a great idea ! 👍

[@matthiaswandel]

especially if the bench can go up and down!

[@TheCaphits]

Love this authentic Mattias content. ❤😂

[@Pallethands]

Im just glad that all of your old videos didn't get deleted

[@tracybowling1156]

Yay, you're back! Your desk looks just like my Dad's always did. He was always working on something cool. Man, I miss him!

[@Erik_The_Viking]

Love the dad jokes. I enjoy watching outtakes like your square dropping - that happens to me as well.

[@Antti_Nannimus]

Another charming, funny, and brilliant video! Welcome back from the edge of Hacker-Doom. Your generosity showing us both your mistakes, and your children becoming involved in your workshop are welcome and inspiring. And your frugality in reusing and refactoring all kinds of legacy materials, including especially varieties of wood and ply-materials, is also greatly appreciated. I wish there was a way to imbed your ethic into all the maker-crafts. Your example is wonderful though.

[@phrozenwun]

When is a joke a bad dad joke? When it becomes apparent! Thanks for sharing.

[@kevinbowker2385]

Always entertaining and informative. Thanks for showing me that I'm not the only one who drops what I'm working on.

[@etcher6841]

This is what woodworking actually looks like, that was a great watch thank you mate

[@kbr1887]

Those right angle drills do spend a lot of time in the drawer, but I wouldn't be without mine. When you need them, they're a lifesaver.

[@gr8dvd]

Same for my right-angle attachment, 5-1/4" (without bit)… a tad cheaper & less drawer space than right-angle drill.

[@kennnva551]

Right-angle bit driver from DeWalt ... has been flawless in much tighter spaces than this video.

[@PlatypusVomit]

@@kennnva551 Can confirm. Can't drill with it, but works great for screws. I keep a right angle drill around for drilling holes in tight spaces.

[@kennnva551]

@PlatypusVomit I have drilled with mine. Of course, that requires drill bits which come with the hex "bit driver" ends.

[@flexispotus]

wow, even wanna add this to our desk accessories option🤩

[@daveydacusguitars9033]

This video was very enjoyable to watch! Some people take things super seriously, and that's cool at times, but it's also a breath of fresh air to see or be around someone who is just there to have fun.

[@Sofia_Princesse_magnifique]

Genuine nature makes your channel a pleasure to follow. Well done.

[@thomashverring9484]

That was an awesome video, Matthias! And I'm glad you got your channel back :^) Glue-ups are always stressful. By the way, many use a white rubber mallet for assembly because it doesn't mar the work. I have a wooden mallet with leather on its faces. It was just a cheap one. I glued a piece of leather on one face, drilled out the other face, and put a rolled up piece of leather in that.

[@TheMorfeus2]

i love the screw-ups in this video, as it reminds me that people on youtube make them too - and they don't just magically get things done perfectly on the first try. Thanks

[@tmuka]

You crack me up! "I am so glad I made those through tennons, i don't know how else I would have gotten them out." Thanks as always for sharing your projects, and including your fixes along with your insights! love the dad jokes too!

[@16ats]

Yeah, you're back!

[@moe8024]

Thank you for being so genuine and straightforward.

[@andyjbauman]

7:24 Every time a hear another KZbinr talk bad about threads in wood, I think back to all of the times you have made practical uses of this method. Nice project. Glad you have your channel back.

[@kenhuynh2474]

I'm happy you got account back! and Thank you for leaving the part where you messed up. reminds me that even pros mess up from time to time

This is pure entertainment. I love it!!!

Great Job!! Thanks Matthias for Sharing!

[@OpossumPiper]

The chaos is magical! I'm glad that I'm not the only one that has things falling over in the workshop!

[@joethompson11]

Great advice for teaching kids, reminds me of times with my Dad. Cheers Matthias

[@harveyellis6758]

Great video. It gives me ideas to tidy up my own electronics hobby table. Dewalt has a right angle drill attachment for tight spaces. I purchased it on sale at Xmas and have used it a few times. It works well for taking stuff apart.

[@ro_yo_mi]

Very timely, my kid has been asking for shelves above their desk... This is an excellent idea.

[@thomask4836]

Thank You Sir! That was joyful ! ! ! ! !

[@christophergolden4713]

love when Matthias busts out all his wild machinery to make "simple" project pieces. just a happy man making happy pieces with happy wood gears.

[@jsjs6751]

Nice to see a new generation of woodworkers 😊 Just make sure they can't hurt themselves on the equipment.

[@simonrussell4986]

I always love how you make things out of what's lying around, it's inspiring. Also, I personally like to hear kids making stuff in the background, and I'd be interested to see what they come up with. Grew up with grandparents, and my grandfather would let me loose in the shed. Not before pointing a drill at a rag and turning it on. From 5, always had a respect for tools. I'm a clumsy idiot, but I've still got all of myself.

[@MirekDvorak]

Very nice. And I had fun. At least I know I'm not the only one with things falling to the ground 😁

[@nicobogaard2315]

I really enjoy the way you radiate pleasure in your work. I return to your vids because they are always educational, practical and just that wee bit beauty in what you make. Greetings from The Netherlands.

[@cypherdras]

I might have a go at this, I've never thought of just putting shelves on top of a table like that.

[@eh42]

Ever designed / built a 3 position chair? Dorm/student study chair that has a quantized set of 3 angles on the "rocker" to permit flat, recline and tilt/edge forward seating. Crazy comfortable!

[@quirtdrozario856]

Excellent idea. I think I'm going to make a small shelving unit for my desk.

[@maxwang2537]

[@aaartisans6467]

The way you explain how you work is simple.

[@owendodman3037]

I do miss the wooden bandsaw days and your quick time lapses of doing all of it

[@avibank]

Been needing to do something like this for my 3 meter desk, that is just covered in electronics. Now I have a Matthias build to reference, making it slightly more likely I'll get around to doing it

[@ddutton0]

glad you got your channel back! Kudos of the dad joke

[@tracybowling1156]

We don't mind hearing the other woodworker in the shop. I think it's really cool to hear!

I only thought if that one as I was about to film the shot. can’t plan these things.

[@Alexander84129]

@@matthiaswandel well I enjoyed it none the less. I just became a father so I’m new to the dad joke lifestyle.

[@acanadianwoodworker]

4:28 The backwards move! Ive done this so many times. I have some sort of light dyslexia or something where I chronically arrange things backwards. Most of my time woodworking is taken up with labelling components to defeat that tendency

[@Noble909]

I can relate so hard to being a scatterbrain in the woodshop. Sometimes I wonder how I'm able to make anything at all!

[@sdavidleigh6642]

Lovely fun to watch. thx

[@artursmihelsons415]

Excellent video as always! 👍 Great to see all mistakes included in video with entertaining comments! 😂 I'm need to make shelves too, but I didn't want to drill new holes in the wall under bigger hanging shelf, between TV and monitor. This video give me some ideas how to achieve goal. Frame, probably, will be similar and will be screwed to PC table, but, instead of wooden shelves, I put plexiglass with RGB LEDs behind.. Thanks! 😇

[@gregwmanning]

Does video mean you survived the hackers for a second time?

[@matthiaswandel]

yes, but this time it took 8 hours instead of 6. I got on it faster this time, but it was a weekend evening, so took youtube longer to respond.

[@BarneySaysHi]

It's amazing how easy it is to glue something facing the wrong way. Even checking twice it's foolproof if the fool is capable enough. :D
