Mistakes happen…they’ll never know

[@linklp5090]

For me you are the best furniture designer on KZbin .This piece is so progressive that there is no expression for it.

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Really appreciate the kind words! Thank you!

[@vikassm]

Likewise! No more dominoes for me :D

[@AndrewMcQuillen]

Agreed, its a beautiful piece and the mistakes...what mistakes, it looks amazing at the end.

[@VanGoodman]

Insane. I'm really pumped to see your channel revived and hope that others are entertained and find the value and inspiration in your vids that I have. This channel deserves a million+ subs as much as any creative channel on youtube. Cheers!

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Really appreciate you saying that! Thanks for the kind words, it is encouraging!

[@mascatrails661]

I love this new direction you and Chris are taking! Diversifying the content onto multiple channels seems to allow each of your personal touches on videos to shine brightly.

[@sethpittman2362]

What a fantastic piece to return to. I really am excited for your channel, and loved hearing your humor and story throughout the video. Super engaging and entertaining. Also, that piece is 😍

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Really glad to hear that! Thanks for following along!

[@SawyerDesign]

Love the cut-back and wrap-around drawer face dude! Really adds a lot of dimensionality. Beautiful piece ✌️

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Thanks, man! That is definitely what I was going for, glad you dig it.

[@MrBlakePratt]

@sawyerDesign love your channel too bro!

[@davidjowett8195]

Stunning piece, The brass accents and the pop of red, which you couldn't have done without the mistake, make a huge difference to the piece. The red certainly makes it pop. Thank you for sharing.

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Happy to hear that! Thanks for watching!

[@heresmyurl]

I'm so glad you're back to making videos on your own channel; dialogue I can actually enjoy.

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Really appreciate it, thanks for watching!

[@csipe5]

Glad I'm not the only bad salesman that has a passion for woodworking. Still rocking that full plum. Love it.

[@woogaloo]

That piece is a thing of beauty! So glad you're back to making videos on your channel.

[@JoshuaDStewart]

Shaun, great work! I'll say the same thing I said on Chris' video: I am amazed at how you turn "mistakes" into opportunities to tweak the design and make it look like that was the intent all along.

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Really appreciate that! Thank you!

[@meperson]

That is amazing piece that shows how much you have learned - another level woodworking. Glad your channel is back!

[@elegantmedia4652]

You are such a vibe...totally and completely fun to listen to that's what I loved most about the video.

[@HelloAnthony]

I like to microwave my dominos prior to doing a dry fit. Seems to help. I also sand down the ridge on the sides and keep a small stash just for dry fitting. Cheers!

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Both good ideas! Might have to keep a stash of sanded dominos for this.

[@JackMoskowitz]

I do the same, but I also mark up the trimmed dominos with a black magic marker so I don't confuse them with the full size ones.

[@meperson]

Was going to say the same - microwave/heating them shrinks them just enough to help with dry fitting and even glue ups.

[@thomlipiczky9021]

Learning to fix your mistakes is the sign of a good woodworker. Learning not to point them out to potential clients is the sign of a good salesman. Very nice design, execution. The brass inlay an other little extras at the end really made this.

[@noahbwoodworks]

man i think mistakes are underrated in general. not only do they push your comfort zone to find creative alternatives, but they challenge the design in ways you would never do naturally. Innovations often happen this way if you're optimistic. dwelling on mistakes is the only mistake lol so good stuff my dude, congrats on perseverance

[@DavidWoodwright]

So nice to see some classic Shaun Boyd design!! Looking forward to future projects!

[@henrysilver2134]

That end grain edge banding is dope! So pumped your channel is back.

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Appreciate it!

[@edolat]

thanks shaun, 100% satisfied after the milling section

[@chrisbmurphy]

The piece, incredible. You squeezed more than 10% with those final details. The video, shooting, writing… you hit a difficult mark of being light, yet inspiring. Soldiering on through mistakes that would leave me in a series of spin cycles. And frankly, the fact you are not doing slab projects and demonstrating new skills and designs - this is the direction making needs to go.

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Really happy to hear that! Appreciate it all, and thanks for watching.

[@twanti64]

It is encouraging that everything is possible. Thank you for sharing.

[@dougggiereid]

That's a super awesome build. You're a true craftsman. Oh and mistakes, they're just there to keep you humble and to prove you're human just like the rest of us. Oh and to challenge you to excel in finding workable solutions. I so enjoyed this video. You really inspire me to improve myself.

[@rulowth4815]

when i started seeing videos of woodwork, i repeated myself "that's incredible, but probably never goin to do something like that" and the more time i spend watching your videos i started to think someday i could, thanks so much for the honesty and the transparency, i greatly apreciated.

[@johnmorphew4859]

This video must have been a TON of work to make--all the different shots, angles, lighting, voice-over, music, etc. Your commitment to awesome content and awesome furniture is very respectable.

[@nevadacool]

Ever heard of using too many ingredients, I think this is what makes or breaks a piece, and I have learned that the more you learn along your journey, the greater your expectations. Truth is, onlookers, rarely understand the complications that were overcame in the creation of their work,- the wright brothers come to mind. Keep moving, build, and reflect.

[@shaunboydmadethis]

You're whistling the Rob and Big theme!!!! "People let me tell you bout my best friend. He’s a warm hearted person who’ll love me till the end..." RIP Big Black

[@LeeHalford]

Shaun, I recommend talking to @BlacktailStudio. As he was previously a aircraft pilot, that only just started in woodworking on KZbin, and in a very short space of time already has a wait list of clients. He might give you some tips? Would be cool to see you two do a Collab or something in future?

[@agn855]

Very nice (video too). The only thing I'd thought about to change was making a gap along the brass in the sliding door that would match with the gap between the top/bottom drawer. JMHO :o)

[@MtlCstr]

Shaun, Try sanding down some dominos so they aren't as tight a fit and use those for dry fitting, then replace them for the glue-up.

[@jcrbuilds]

Shaun- I’m sure your aware, but there’s scammers appearing in your posts. I have of course reported them.

[@markcogan9002]

I've watched hundred of hours of wood milling and drawer making and I never get tired of it. I don't know why.

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Hey, whatever floats your boat. I get it.

[@ericpatterson8794]

Idea for a domino puller: get someone to weld a slide hammer (or just a nut that you can thread a slide hammer) onto a pair of vice grips.

[@shaunboydmadethis]

I think you might be onto something, I like it.

[@MaxShaffer]

@@shaunboydmadethis Honestly, just the vice grips work pretty darn well...

[@mjc0704]

@@shaunboydmadethis I was going to comment this. Amazon sells a "Vice Grip Slide Hammer". They work great!

[@kevinbowman8259]

A true woodworker always stands or lays on his furniture at the end of a build. Love that you kept this OG reference to your earlier work. Can't wait for your next vids. Cheerios.

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Truth! Thanks Kevin!

[@clifismith3377]

Shaun - great to have you back! I learn so much from your work… Thanks for being YOU.

[@SpikeMorelli]

second video since you restarted the channel and I'm realizing only now how much I missed it. I had kinda stopped watching most ww videos, but found joy in it again since you started posting. thank you! To a thousand more of these and a million subscribers one day!

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Really appreciate that! Thanks for sticking around!

[@williamellis8993]

Really nice, Shaun. You're right - the mistakes are something that on one will notice. Two things I'm happy to see. One is the return of scrapsketball and the other is you planking on the piece to show it's strength. See you next (outstanding) video. Bill

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Thanks Bill! Glad you enjoyed and glad I could bring back some of the old favorites.

[@larpbusters]

Your dry humor is excellent. Glad to see your four eyes on your own channel again.

[@rawr2u190]

Oh gosh that's so beautiful. And the pop of colour is a really nice detail.

[@cliff0weird0]

Awesome video, awesome piece. Best “reboot” I’ve seen in a long time.

[@Adsjabo]

Yes mate! Good to see you're back, youve been missed!

[@ellmannvictor]

Simply amazing. I watched this in my phone, but will watch it again in TV so I can have a good look at all of the details.

[@homie817x]

bro… this piece is gorgeous, just wow

[@JMC8415]

Turned out killer, MISTAKES AND ALL!!!

[@verbidextrous]

Simply beautiful. Complexly beautiful.

[@AquaPeet]

23:59 I think you should photograph EVERY piece of furnature with Ghost Shaun in or on it! That effect looks so awesome. You can see how it looks with a person there, without interfering with the main focus of the photo: showing off the furnature.

[@andrewsimmering9471]

So glad you're back. You're a great narrator.

[@bjorncj]

i love your level of detailing. But what I admire you most for. Is your heart to share us the methods and tricks you adopt to build such beautiful pieces. Its very rare. This certainly makes your work and you, very unique. Thanks a lot. For composing this video.

[@henriramert3030]

Great piece, love that you‘re starting your Channel again. I learn woodworking in Germany, and in school you learn that there is no right or wrong way for the order of operation when edgebanding. The two ways are just called diffrent and look diffrent, in the end it‘s just personal preference. Keep up with the great Videos.

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Totally agree! Thanks for watching!

[@zoma-art5676]

Man what u said at the end about mistakes at the end hits really deep, wise words ❤

[@FrankLepore]

Shaun, really glad I found you through Foureyes. Wishing you the best, and glad to be able to keep up with you!

[@AKGatesway]

I'm so glad you're back on YT! I enjoy your creativity, craftsmanship, and your willingness to share difficulties. Thanks for being real. Looking forward to seeing more!

[@xclusivekid123]

Definitely like the pop of orange on the drawer when it’s opened.. 💪🏼🔥💪🏼🔥

[@FrancoisTerblanche]

Wow! What a beautiful piece! Mistakes and all. 👏🏼🙏🏼👍🏼

[@elizabethlee6077]

So happy you’re back on this channel!

[@ronniegigante2547]

This was an awesome cabinet with a beautiful design. Remember you learn the most when you make mistakes, however a good woodworker knows how to not only build a project but repair his mistakes so no one sees them. You did just that. Great job.

[@erwinvb70]

That turned out very nice, absolutely beautiful

[@cflynn2726]

I love that first piece so much I now have it in my house… glad to see you back.

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Oh man, hope you're still enjoying it! Thanks for sticking around!

[@kristianaltmann7721]

Boy do I like that table. Mistakes made or not, it still looks great and that’s what it’s all about in the end.

[@DarwinsElite]

Excellent choice giving us two perspectives to watch- double the knowledge and entertainment. Thank you

[@dgpieterjan]

As a mediocre woodworker, I've actually started embracing my mistakes and loving the fact that most touch ups are still visible and tell a story. Recently caught myself showing all my mistakes to friends on the last chair I built, and their reaction was possibly even better than seeing the finished piece itself!

Gotta say that going "full plum" was probably the best way to end a video I've seen ;) Thanks for the vid Shaun, and keep building awesome...mistakes and all!

[@SuperCruelworld]

Years ago I used to work with this craftsman /sawyer who really knew his stuff. But boy could he make mistakes. What he was really great at was fixing them. As a result, I have always believed it isn't that mistake that ruins the piece. It is the repair that makes the craftsman.

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Couldn’t agree more!

[@valentinobrose]

I love this Furniture and i love that you Show your misstakes. We all do misstakes but Nobody show this. But If you Show it, i can learn. 👍

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Happy to hear that! Thanks for watching!

[@dragade101]

Brilliant. I think of mistakes as personal inside jokes or secrets. That you worked through something and what someone doesnt notice is recognition that your work reads correctly.

[@jasonwest2064]

Forget about the minor mistakes you made. You do amazing work. Most of only wish we could half as good as you. Great job

[@aliciadietz4686]

Beautiful design, Shaun. For dry fitting with dominoes, this is a trick that works for me.. . Buy the domino sticks. Rip off the tapered edges to make them a little narrower. Run the stick through a drum sander or planer, taking off only a hair. This makes them just thinner than the mortise. Draw a sharpie line on the flat part of the stick. Now you can cut them to lengths as needed, and the sharpie indicates that these are your dry fit dominoes. I have a box of these of various lengths. They are much easier to remove when dry fitting. The cost of a few sticks has saved me hours of frustration. Thanks for your videos. I always enjoy watching your process.

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Great idea! Thanks for watching!

[@samwallace7313]

Outstanding working, a beautiful piece of furniture

[@kenkioqqo]

KZbin recommended this after watching a video by Foureyes Furniture. Didn't know Shaun had a channel too. As a beginner woodworker, I'm excited to watch the rest of your satisfying walkthroughs.

[@Narrendor]

That pop of red you see on opening the drawers is rad, and the whole piece is cool as hell. Well done for soldiering on!!

[@callme.oti.s]

I don't know much about this channel... I only recently started watching Foureyes and was sent over here. looking forward to growing with this channel.

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Thanks for coming over here too. More to come!

[@essirockarmen9799]

This piece looks so good!! And full plum is probably the best look anyone can where, anytime.

[@stephane4487]

Glad to see you back on your own channel. You are one of the first woodworkers I started following on YT and I enjoyed watching your videos for your design, tips and sense of humour. Exactly what you are back with. Lovely piece, well done 👍

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Happy to hear that! Thanks for sticking around!

[@jonathanlambeth3464]

The mark of a master isn't that he doesn't make mistakes, it's how he deals with them. Awesome piece of furniture and an awesome video.

[@vanmitchellsr.5735]

You are so right! Don’t use the word mistake but opportunity to reach a higher level of professionalism!

[@designxyz5007]

Shaun, I keep a set of each size domino aside for dry assembly. I just rub down the ridges on the sides which makes it a lot easier to pull out.

[@danbarrett6113]

Hey Shaun, I'm glad you are back to your own videos again.

[@kendallnkrumah9962]

Loved watching this. Guess mistakes are really part of the process. Well done

[@adammarriott8302]

Cool piece and great video. Thanks for showing the mistakes and how you fixed them, very valuable to me as someone who spends half the time on the project trying to "hide my crimes".

[@shaunboydmadethis]

Thanks for watching! Showing all of the mistakes is tough, but I'm glad you enjoyed seeing them!

[@tldwoodworking1962]

Absolutely stunning and fantastic watch!
