Making Adjustable Height Bar Stools

[@tharemyhopkins5873]

From several perspectives (technical, artistic, and entertainment, among others) your videos are just fantastic. Thank you Neil!

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much Tharemy - glad you're enjoying them! :)

[@SauceOnDough]

Agreed! Absolutely love watching these videos!

[@bmartel88]

Can't agree more !

[@Nighthawkinlight]

I'm always impressed by how a woodworker can cut different geometries with such ease. Simple stuff here I know, but it still melts my mind.

Sounds cool to me! :)

Pask's woodworking skills are superb, however his videos are so pleasant to watch, the light is always impeccable, nice work.

[@boncamino5195]

The black wattle is gorgeous. I think a lot of people think this wood is rubbish. But as always you show otherwise. I think all wood is useful to some degree just need to be mindful of what you use it for. Well done as always 🎉🙂

[@andicacciatore9279]

Gorgeous results! I have a pine “screw stool” I bought at least 40 years ago at a trendy furniture store in Miami, FL!! Not nearly a nice as yours, the screw has much thicker threads, but is still with me in one piece through the abuse of my 3 kids over the years. Your craftsmanship is so inspiring! I just started following your channel today after looking for a design for a Murphy desk - found yours - another excellent creation, and well beyond my ability, though I’m going to use laminate on the desk surface like you did. My 9 y/o grandson asked me to “help” him make one for his room - can’t say no to that. 😊 Looking forward to watching more of your videos.

[@tobyroberts6571]

I really appreciate that you admit that you aren't sure if things will work, and will go back and fix them later if you need. Too many KZbinrs etc. act like they know exactly what they are doing and every decision is perfect. Nice to hear someone admitting that's not how things work and sometimes you gotta take a punt, then come back and fix/improve it later if you need to

[@RAMi-q9r]

An excellent channel for the presence of Arabic translation, and we learn a lot about the matter of carpentry, and we follow you from Saudi Arabia. Thank you, Mr.

[@rsramanujam]

There is nothing more calming and humbling than watching you make something, sir. It’s like spending the entire night at a remote beach watching the night sky while listening to the waves roll and crash.

[@cjzx325]

It's always a good day when you upload a video! The threading box is brilliant. I'll have to que that video next.

[@traceyosterlind14]

I 2nd that!

[@nrml76]

Amazing how much work goes into making what at first glance appears to be a rather simple (but elegant) piece of furniture.

[@nick666809]

the thought and detail that goes into the project, filming and explanations are top notch. Love the attitude towards creating quality tools & jigs. I always learn something. thanks for sharing!

[@dr.skipkazarian5556]

One of the best things I have gleaned from your videos is learning, understanding, and appreciating the "art" of the jig. Your work is very high quality and your skills are inspirational. Many thanks, best wishes, and stay healthy.

[@Skizze37]

Gorgeous, I love these videos- all the fat trimmed out. Talking only when necessary to describe what you're doing, no annoying background music, and gorgeous designs executed skillfully.

[@robertr4193]

One tip that I have seen used to help keep glue off the outside edges where it squeezes out when gluing thing together is to put a strip of take right along the outside edges. Then the glue squeezes out on to the glue and you just peal off the tape and squeeze out is handled.

[@MRrwmac]

You recon right! They are great pieces of art which especially show off your expertise and craftsmanship! Lots and lots of tips here that fall over to other projects! Those spindles were absolutely perfect!!

[@thomream1888]

There were some difficult angles to work with, at least for us mere mortals! You, on the other hand, just sailed on like no worries. It really is fun to watch you tackle those issues. Those stools are simply beautiful. Thanks for taking us along.

[@robbiemer8178]

Beautiful design/construction! Complimented very well by the black wattle! Definitely would love to watch you make more furniture with that wood. Thank you for sharing this.

[@PaskMakes]

I bought a whole pack of it to make a kitchen island. I just never get around to finalising a design to get it done or started. I have been talking about it though this last week. :)

[@oh8wingman]

I had an interest in carpentry years ago but it faded. The problem was two fold; First, the only commonly available materials in my area is limited. It's limited to spruce. That's pretty much it. The second reason was lack of talent. I truly suck at woodworking. That's why I became a welder.I can literally cut it twice! (If I mess up I weld it back on and recut it....LOL) In any event, I truly enjoy watching how you build your various projects. You have a remarkable talent and a great degree of craftsmanship in your work that is seldom seen these days. I wished I lived closer to you so I could purchase a thing or two from you but Australia to Canada freight would be a killer and there is no guarantee that anything would arrive undamaged. A project you might want to consider is building an arbour press. When you make your dowels you are hammering them through the dies. If you had an arbour press it seems to me that it would be much faster and simpler than hammering. Another thing I noticed was when you applied glue down into the dowel holes, you poked it in with an artist brush handle which is kind of messy. I would suggest to you that you make a special glue bottle end with an empty plastic refill from a ballpoint pen. Simple drill out an old glue bottle top so the refill fits it tight and then affix it with hot melt glue. Because it's small enough to go into your dowel hole you can inject the glue into the hole from the bottom up ensuring a more complete surface coverage. Clean it out after each use so it's ready for the next job. Just a suggestion.

[@philgray4780]

Neil , Absolutely Beautiful . Simple , elegant. You are a Credit to Australia and more than hold your own in the Makers Mob. Very Well Done.

[@negotiableaffections]

Phenomenal, and gorgeous. That wood 'tap' is incredible. Well done, well done.

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much Keith! :)

[@rowing-away]

i showed my dad your channel while he was in the hospital & he fell in love. now hes out & we still talk about your videos. keep it up

[@anderleof]

Very satisfying......threads look perfect, joints fit perfectly, dowels fit perfectly. Well done.

[@sethmiller1357]

I have a pair of curved jaw cable shears that I use for cutting short dowels (both for joining and plugging). They're quicker than a saw and crush the fibers at the end making a bit of a radius for easy insertion.

[@andriesmatthijs1215]

You are definitly my favourite woodworker on KZbin! Greetings from Belgium! 👍😁

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much Andjis! :)

[@Heseblesens]

[@clydebalcom8252]

That's beautiful wood, and the use of shop made tools makes it even better.

[@ttBCH]

I am fully addicted to your videos. I've only found your channel recently after looking for some simple projects to do and have spent the last few weeks watching the videos in whatever order the KZbin algorithm suggests them to me. It's been a true pleasure watching you work. I've been watching your subscriber count steadily grow and I can't wait until you hit 1 million. I can't think of an artist more deserving. Keep up the great work and thank you for the inspiration!

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much! Glad you're enjoying the videos! :)

[@tobiassoltermann]

Amazing project, Neil. In addition, you're setting a good example for safety, especially at the tablesaw, always using clamps and pushsticks. There are a lot of others these days... I like.

[@dg50484]

As usual Neil, you make the complicated look easy. I have some homework to do before I attempt this. Like learning the thread cutting box, which I’m going to watch next. I would have really liked to have seen how you made the tapering jig. Thank you Neil for another great and challenging project. Can’t wait for the next one.

[@staxter6]

Stunning work Neil, just stunning. Did I mention you are genius? Very classical looking stools.

[@AdeAhmat]

Those are beautiful stools. And the way they were built, amazing! I love both the process and the result.

[@MSI2k]

Dude you're not a wood-worker, you're an artist. Every single project of yours is a real work of art.

[@Kaniauthentic]

I just want to say that, this is an excellent creative video. Very well done.

[@JV-it9pm]

What! No boiled linseed oil??! The hard wax oil looks amazing. It's nice to see black wattle being used like this. I mainly see it going into fire places and the BBQ here in South Africa.

[@elainehiggins7544]

That black wattle lumber has such lovely color and figure. I was tickled to see that it looks much like the mesquite from Texas that I enjoy building with. Info on Wikipedia indicates both trees thrive in semi-arid temperature climates and have a similar growing habit, even to the bearing similar leaves and flowers. Many thanks for your inspirational and educational videos.

[@ConorMakes]

Like these mate nice job. A glue clean up tip I got from Marius Hornberger (on youtube) was to use the "Unspeakable" plastic straw, push the end into the new glue joint and run it the length of the joint. The straw scoops the excesses glue squeeze out, when ya fill an inch/25mm of it snip it off start again. Your native woods look amazing btw

[@RestoreMoreMCM]

Brilliant. Thank you. I love this style of furnishings but the antiques market is ludicrously cost prohibitive. Again my thanks and admiration.

[@LogHouseFarm]

There are a lot of little tips and tricks that you use that I will find very helpful, thanks! Now I just need to get a few more of the essential shop equipment - Like a bandsaw, a lathe, an edge planer...

[@andreassiegenthaler1373]

Thank you so much for your great work and videos. I'm really impressed of your talent and learned a lot of you. This video inspired me so much I built the same stools made out of reclaimed Rimu. A lot of work but they're stunning. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!

Fantastic video as always. Love the jig making since you continually reinforce that it isn't all that hard and produces great results. I would have thought about biscuit joining or using dowels to hold the two pieces that make the seat.... just because kids want to sit on the edge of things or rick them back and forth. Interested to know how well that glue joint holds up.
