First time I see one of your videos, beautiful work and impressive! Thanks for the ideas. Hope you have recovered!

[@HomeBrewedVapesReviews]

Absolutely beautiful. I work as a machinist and love seeing what you can do with whatever metal you have. Always wanted to try my hand at woodworking. Just looks satisfying and rewarding as well.

[@AydDesignCo]

Hey thanks so much! I feel like I’ve only scratched the surface of metalworking. You should give a woodworking project a try! Thanks for watching!

[@endwatcher]

Love it! Like the fact that your coating wasnt to shiny and more of a matte type of finish also

[@apriljohnson421]

This is one of the best videos I’ve seen on this type of raw material bench making. I love it!

You are so amazing 👍 Thanks for sharing 🙏

Hey thank you so much! I’m so happy to hear my videos were able to inspire you to take it up a notch!! 🙌 🥳

Приветствую ! Где ты тут увидел мастера, Рукожоп сдает экзамен на умение пользоваться инструментом и тот провалил Лучше бы он это не вставлял, никакого полета фантазии ,показал что умеет пользоваться инструментом и варить только не то что надо , боковины надо бы деревянные для легкости , долговечности и меньшей травмоопасности конструкции а подножки (копыта) узорными стаканами сварить чтоб "ноги" защитить это просто мнение )) ну видно старался

Открыл для себя новый и интересный способ отделки древесины.Текстура получается обалденная. Автору уважение и здоровья.

[@wladimirantonov4252]

А обжечь не проще было? И к тому же экологично и защита от гниения.

[@user-mv2tg3jd1i]

А на мой взгляд ножки нужно покрыть позолотой чтобы на века.

[@tvi12]

@@wladimirantonov4252 вы уверены что если обжеч то не будет гнить? Сами пробовали? Я сам пробовал. Через месяц все смылось дождем и древесина осталась чистой. Так что из собственного опыта могу сказать точно что обжиг без лака это херня полная
