Mid Century Modern Stool with Leather Seat - Woodworking

[@HiroProtagonistak]

You keep everything so clean, no tools everywhere, no saw dust everything in it's place. Good.

[@TwoBitLife]

You know Chris, we're pretty good about keeping to ourselves, but I just wanted you to know, that you are a HUGE influence in our channel. We are technologists who love breaking from our norm, to watch some old world craft, and you are one of our favorites! Please keep the content coming! We're huge fans! We love your philosophy and design, keep it up!

[@scooppralines6428]

I dig the style of your projects. I could watch your videos all day! Your killing it.

[@superhall229]

Taste of leather, great satisfaction. You one cool drink of water dude.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

haha...thanks!

[@prabjotmatta]

I can watch these videos all day. That's how good they are. Keep up the work

[@EvanAndKatelyn]

1) I love that you said nincompoop 2) Thanks for having us, it was so fun! 3) Profit! Wait I'm not sure if I did that right...

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Question...would you have enjoyed the video even more if I described you guys as "numb skulls" ??? I toyed with it.

[@EvanAndKatelyn]

Chris Salomone hahaha. It would not have been an inaccurate description! We also would accept buffoons or hooligans

[@erisnam4051]

This is awesome; great value for cash [Link Here==plus.google.com/u/0/b/103507540490143379040/103507540490143379040/posts/F3tU5zSVtoX ]! Such a vast set of plans in so little cost. I know something like this would go higher on the parallel market. This plan have done as such much in making this available to be purchased. Much thanks to you to such an extent.

[@thedrizz1913]

Best dado ever.

[@modustrial]

This is your best video yet from the storytelling perspective. I really enjoyed the narrative, going beyond saying "I did A, then I did B, then C"....but at the same time you provided enough build details that the audience knows what you are doing.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks :)

[@WilliamLutesMaker]

Chris. Its not the channel I love. Or what you build. Not that both arent awesome. Its you. You are amazing. The voiceover is phenomenal and Zen like for me. I Love You. That is all.

[@WorksbySolo]

Bill, well said...very well said.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

You're too kind sir :) Much appreciated

[@46reyalP]

Crafted workshop recommend I come here and not I don't watch him because of your reasoning

[@danielpotter828]

I love the sense of humor (the intro to your first video had me hitting subscribe before I'd even seen your workmanship). That being said...the Country Crock reference has to be my favorite yet...lost my coffee all over my phone and work bench. Keep having fun!

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Yeah....it was pretty subtle. Most people will probably think "huh?"

[@maehay4065]

This is a beautiful chair with a lot of charm👍😍I'm glad you had help with this project and shared your experience with your tools in your shop! 👍👏☝️🏡😍

[@tonypalmer4360]

Any video that contains the words 'nincompoop' & 'veiny-armed beefcake' must be worth watching. Great work as usual Chris!

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

check and check :)

[@SeanEvelegh]

Hey Chris. I love the chair. especially the half lap joint on the corners and the use of material (Leather!).

[@africancichlids3011]

i also noticed that ,.looks sweeet

[@JTWoodworks]

Laminating the two pieces with the nylon webbing was a great idea. Thank you for sharing that tip!

[@TommyKronholm]

Excellent Chris! Your videos keep getting better and better and I really like the way you've used this leather for this seat. Having Evan and Katelyn join you was a cool bonus too! Thank you for giving us such top notch content man :)

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks Tommy :)

[@WorksbySolo]

Chris, this is so soothing and comfortable to watch, yet exciting and inspirational all at the same time. Keep the recipe going!

[@YouCanMakeThisToo]

Came out fantastic! Loved the cameos in the video and glad you had a good experience with leather your first time. -Caleb Harris

[@seanson6401]

The overall look and soft curves of my favorite style. That's why I like Chris's design. Thanks for the video Chris.

[@Camsdjksjd]

Man I would love to see you make a couch and chair in this style! Totally in love with it

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Might not be in this exact style, but I do plan on making some chairs and a couch in the not too distant future :)

[@JorgeMartinez-bw7nl]

Very nice job Chris Salomon. It ia always good to see how we can mix different materials in one piece of furniturw and get an outstanding result.😉

[@brianbuckley998]

I've really gotten to like the 1/8th inch round over on everything. You get the benefits or having the piece rounded over and smooth edges, but it still looks sharp because it's such a small radius. Stool looks awesome!!

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks Brian :)

[@LulusBeans]

Your work is beautiful. And even though I know absolutely NOTHING about woodworking, I really enjoy watching your videos. I always love your finished product.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks...I take that as a great compliment :)

[@Vmay]

Beautiful stool. Like the way nylon stripes show through. And as always: love your work.

[@drmrossing]

You got my like with the "dontcha think?" line. Keep up the great videos

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

:)

[@yvanmettraux9502]

First of all, I love your videos! They are some of the best out there in woodworking. There was one thing I would change for another piece or project. I would have turned the corners the other way, so that even if the glue would break it would hold the pressure of the lether. Letting the top piece run on the outside would provide that support. Even I am a swiss carpenter I am always astonished by your work. Same for @EvanAndKatelyn. Thanks a lot for doing this!

[@FardeenIrani]

Very neat and really great to watch your videos. Enjoy every one of them.

[@BruceAUlrich]

I agree with you...the webbing/strips actually add a nice effect. Also, I think the nails/tacks would look good on the front and rear faces, just opposite of where they are on the inside, as a design element. Enjoyed the video!

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks Bruce...I could see that. Then I'd have to pay way more attention to not putting them in so wonkily :) ...on a side note, spell correct finds no fault with the word "wonkily"

[@AndrewMcQuillen]

Beautiful piece and lovely video. Always a pleasure watching your videos😀

[@craftedworkshop]

Awesome work, man. Love leather and Walnut together, they're a gorgeous combo.

[@zacherygaddy5236]

Beautiful design as always.

[@VENKOwood]

Good job

[@CharlieHamilton]

Love the leather!!!

[@ilyaivanov1745]

I liked this project!

[@KyleAndersonSkates]

That was a great way to plug your instagram. Awesome project as always Chris!

[@africancichlids3011]

be cool if u made a coffee table with a leather top . same design just taller and longer , looks cool

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

I thought the leather could be cool for some drawer faces maybe. Lots left over so I'll do soemthing

[@slotsize]

Wow.... they were more than 4 hours late.... and you waited all those hours before starting 👏🏻👏🏻

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

haha...no. I waited to make noise to be nice to my neighbors

[@RobinCoomans]

Really like this one Chris!

[@Jonas4747]

really liking it! As you like walnut so much (me too) you should try to combine it with metals like brass or copper.

[@realjester]

Another beautiful piece of furniture 👍👍👍

[@Thmz2006]

You had me at the Alanis reference

[@MrTallman83]

Great idea to plug your instagram! Really cool project Chris!

[@mrburtenshaw8610]

Did notice you were growing your guns... Looking buff. Also nice design, nice work.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

haha...not really. But I am really veiny for some reason.

[@jayyc4486]

“I am, in fact, a nincompoop” the most pure thing I’ve ever heard

[@MakersMadLab]

As always awesome video, I strive for your precision.

[@g-rothahero5351]

Once again.. nice, can't wait for my shirt to come in!

[@andrewroberts8217]

great job as always A true wood Artist

[@jean-pierreferreira6477]

Hi. I absolutely love your style! Videos and woodwork. Keep up the good work. 👍🏻

[@perryingto]

Great job sir truly enjoy your work

[@juliacasey6974]

I’m a beginner woodworker and have really enjoyed watching and learning from your videos! I love the simplicity and look of the legs you have for this project. I’m having a hard time telling by eye, and maybe because I’m a beginner I didn’t follow it in your video, but are the legs tapered on one or two sides? Or more? Awesome project and channel! Thank you for sharing!

[@Jade-zx8md]

I love your videos... even though they have been distracting me from my college homework. But hey. You win a little, you lose a little. Right?

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Indeed you do :)

[@bearbailey007]

Awesome!

[@FunwithEBR]

Excellent content!

[@TheWoodWerker]

Another Awesome Video Chris! I def enjoyed the journey Buddy! Have A Super Week!.....Gus

[@ScratchAOE2777]

I lost it at Veiny armed Beefcake.

[@jasperrogers7887]

excellent!

[@Erikdidit]

Nice video and build Chris!

[@frankingram3382]

Hey Chris, next time you tell someone to check you out on Instagram, how about telling them your Instagram address. Oh yeah, I love the soft lines on that stool and I enjoy your channel. You know it doesn't hurt so bad to get out of our comfort zone of WOODworking. God Bless my friend.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

I do....the graphic says "foureyesfurniture" and it says "link below"...and then there is a link below :) Thanks Frank

[@WatchMeDIYIt]

Been waiting for it since I heard on the podcast you were working on it. Thanks, Ben, for sending him that leather! :-) Great video again, Chris.

[@jacksoni349]

why didn't you stain the wood before applying the leather? and also, why didn't you tuck the leather under itself? could probably help reinforce, but awesome work

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

1. I knew it was a really small section, so I figured I'd just be careful...b/c we were doing everything while Evan and Katelyn were over, didn't have time to finish before applying. 2. I thought about that, but worried it would start looking weird where it tucked under. Was afraid you might see a line, etc...

[@tooljunkie555]

"A little too ironic,,and i really do think"..lol another great video and project chris!👍👍🍻 #ilovethe90s

[@theflava]

No way! Evan is my cousin by marriage. Small world!

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Then it's like we're related too :-)

[@matthewde2512]

Love ur vids. Keep up the good work

[@albatrossoflife3416]

Any tips for someone with router table anxiety? Idk why but my router table scares the crap out of me when it comes to using it. A palm router doesn't scare me, but my router table is so much stronger and just makes me nervous.

[@KSFWG]

Very nice! I enjoyed the video very much.

[@Joe-dt7wp]

2:06 - "I just wanted to make sure I was being precise". Isn't that what you do all the time? I've never seen someone take more care over cutting a piece of wood than you.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

I suppose I do...but I was extra quadruple careful here :)

[@Joe-dt7wp]

Chris Salomone only quadruple?!

[@Snaffer01]

There are other youtubers like this... :)

[@chrishachet8622]

Actually so nice to see something other than a saw stop making sawdust....

[@CraftsWithEllen]

Love the look of this! I hope you'll go out on limbs and branch out more in the future, it makes for good projects and good jokes, what's not to like :)

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

The leather's bark was worst than it's bite...ok that one was a stretch. :)

[@EEHubbell_Official]

Hey Ninkompoop! Haha, great video! Keep up the good work

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

hi :)

[@finlayrodgers343]

Chris are there any woodwork projects you would suggest to someone that has never done it before and is just starting up

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

build something big that uses boxes. That's a core component that can be expanded out and built upon for so many things.

[@bassamfattahalturk1381]

Hi Nice work and good job Thank you so much Bassam alturk Baghdad , Iraq

[@andreaairaghi9590]

Nice project, well done. I saw, while you where showing your living room, a couple of chairs by Charles Eames. Have you made it?

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

I did not make those. I wish. They were a family member's and they gave them to us

[@AdityaAserkar]

A very well made video!

[@moneymakingmikeg.9555]

9:07 mark you looked so much like ET from the side view!! I chuckled to myself. Nice little humor in the video. Another cool ass build bud!!! Hope all is well, and Dirty Jersey out!!!

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

haha...I just needed to be in a bike :)

[@derekroetzel]

I knew this was coming! I saw your Reddit post in r/leathercraft!

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

haha...nice

[@ShaunGuthrie-CaskWoodworking]

Chris, what kind of pencil do you use? I know, not the most technical of questions or glamorous like what kind of tool is that. I ask since I have some mechanical pencils but the lead always breaks. Need something a bit more sturdy or thicker. Love the videos as always!

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

I actually use a really thin lead, and they break if you use any real pressure. Luckily I have about 60

[@ShaunGuthrie-CaskWoodworking]

Chris Salomone well there goes that idea of you were using something fancy :)

[@motalinda]

Hey, I love your channel and all your videos!!! so happy ive found it. I was wondering if you could make a cool projector wall shelf/bracket thing or something like that? It'd be so cool to have something like that with your style and creativity! :D

[@redneckgrammarcop9205]

You need to get some shoe molding on that baseboard, bro.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

I would...but I'm too lazy

[@Patricksworkshop]

nice👍

[@WildmanDesignCo]

Beautiful stool! Great job. ps. I happened to notice a CNC machine. Any plans to use it in future videos?

[@jarryd8153]

I wish I had as tolerant neighbo(u)rs as yours! Nice work as usual Chris, thanks for the video! :) I also enjoyed that cheeky Instagram page plug.

[@BrandonsBees]

Country Crock because of just hands, right? Nice reference. Also, E&K are legit.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

:) It was a subtle one :)

[@lcrazyjeff]

checked out instagram page, doesn't show what happened when you sat on the stool?

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

You beat me too it. It's up there now

[@thomasclarke7611]

Lovely stool! Do you sell the plans for your designs?

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks. I don't...but someday I hope

[@chrisf7178]

Awesome video man! One question though. I always see you useing that fancy marking tool for your lines. What is it called? I have never seen it b4 even in stores.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

I got it on amazon. It's the incra. If you go in the vid's description you'll see a link.

[@chrisf7178]

Chris Salomone awesome thanks man.

[@masterofnone]

I watched it. It was a good video.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks man :)

[@jmakes3745]

Another amazing project Chris, I really like the design as always! If I could make one criticism of the video though (not really that I'm in the position to do so given your videos are so much better than mine but hey ho) please can you limit the number of ad's in your videos. I appreciate the hussle but 5 ads/promos in a 13 minute video is too much... it ruins the flow of the video, making it feel less like watching an amazing craftsman at work and more like you're trying to be sold something. Maybe just try 1 ad in the video itself + patreon and then put the subscribe/Instagram/promos in writing at the end? Just a thought :)

[@hoangtran95]

JMakes I actually agree with you but I didn't get any ads on this video and usually 1 per video. I'm on mobile by the way so no AdsBlock. I just double tapped a few times to skip over the Patreon thanks and any part of the video that I don't enjoy as much. Compared to other criticisms, I appreciate your manner!

[@jmakes3745]

Are you talking about youtube ads or the ads in the actual video itself? (the patreon ad, grisly ad, subscribe promotion, Instagram promotion & evan and catlyn promotion. I don't see how ad block can stop the ones in the video - you're right the only way to do it, is to skip over them, but again it ruins the flow/feel of the video constantly having to go to the computer and clicking along instead of just sitting back & enjoying the video.

[@hoangtran95]

Oh I thought you meant the KZbin Ads. I agreed with you there. Most channels do like a sponsor ad at the beginning and 1 or 2 more at the end of the video so we have the option to just go to the next one without having to go through more ads. He can have ads and promotions but the key here is allocating them so that the video is his main source of attention.

[@jmakes3745]

Exactly, you've nailed it on the head. It feels as if the video is just a way to tie the ads together as opposed to the video being the main source of attention and the ads added on. I 100% agree - one sponsored ad per video max, a short patreon spot as an overlay to a repetitive part of the build, and then all the subscribe/Instagram/ promos etc just at links in the endscreen. If people want to check those things out they know to click, they don't need prompting.

[@hoangtran95]

High five! I hope Chris sees this and consider our constructive feedbacks!

[@Nicholaskids]

Hi Chris 😊

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Hey!

[@Cactusworkshopchannel]

another beautiful pieeeeece :)

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

:-)

[@zachpw]

Why'd you make the stretcher go under your thighs instead of have one on either side of you, and nothing on the front and back? Looks great though. I love Eames' wood and leather stuff.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

I liked the way it looked better...and it didn't need to be as big this way. The stretcher goes under the back of your leg if you're sitting up straight. Kind of like the way there is usually a gap between your legs and the front of a chair. If you lean it's still comfortable since it is rounded over and you're not putting weight in the front (since you'd be leaning back)

[@nshimala]

Very nice. Good video, too, as always. What part of the US are you in?

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Southern California...and thanks :)

[@Icyblade01]

wondering what font you used for the Modern Maker logo :P

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

I think it's based off of a font called ADAM

[@chengchetao4503]

What app do u use in some videos showing structure in 3D?

Is that pencil @3:45 chalk or something?

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

White colored pencil

[@1gryphus1]

What is that white pencil you use? so beautiful.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Probably just a white colored pencil from an art store. Thanks :)
