Building a Collection & Obfuscation Device

[@jackleg693]

Everything about this was hugely enjoyable. The box is incredible but the editing, music and your sense of humour was just superb. Thank you so much for sharing. I get so much enjoyment and motivation out of your videos.

[@SawyerDesign]

Love to hear it! Thanks so much!

[@bluemalamute]

200 board-feet of walnut = $1,200? sheep and balloon fart sounds from opening vacuum bag = priceless

[@bando404]

Seems like you were in a happy mood when you made this video. That positive energy transfers through the screen. Regarding design there are some basic concepts. It’s not all taste as one may think. You have successfully identified some of those basic concepts through intuition it seems. Very enjoyable.

[@ElementONE15]

Haha! adderall and psy-trance.

[@littleeaglewoodworks]

Split top with a solid, removable insert. The curves will be a welcomed design.

[@smithe53]

Seconded.

[@wysestone]

I don't know if it's just me but that gap between the top of the arch and the box looks off.

[@c.a.g.1977]

0:06 Not many people know that "Macassar ebony and Borosilicate glass" were the original lyrics to the well known Paul McCartney/Michael Jackson hit song, but it did'nt fit into the meter of the song. Jackson only sang in imperial, and McCartny in metric.

[@SawyerDesign]

😂 wow! What a fun fact! Lol

[@SD-eu7ht]

Very interesting until just after 6min. The argument "not your fingers not your problem" is not only ignorant but dangerous to those who try to learn from professionals. You should set an example.

[@SawyerDesign]

Too many good examples out there. I’m admitting that I’m a bad example. Not ignorant at all. Ignorance would dictate that I wasn’t aware of the danger. Thousands of hours of operation inform my decisions, not the opinions of the safety police ✌️

[@nathanielsnyder1323]

man you at these angled/curve designs!! Ad yes...Psytrance nah. Phish, Medeski Martin & Wood, Goose

[@dustinhenderson8324]

Bro, as soon as you said "Psy Trance" I subbed. Your the only woodworker on YT that plays EDM in your videos.

[@brianjordison2910]

LOVE your work....can't stand your music! Is there any other way?

[@SawyerDesign]

Thanks! Sure is. The mute button + subtitles. Nobody wants to hear me yammer on for 20 minutes, nobody watches w/o sound, and I can't stand to edit to rock or whatever you're into.

[@PaleRider559]

I was NOT listening to that crap in the '80s... 100% 70s Rock n Blues for me :D

[@robertrapisarda5126]

Awesome build as usual. I dig all your content. But I am wondering what music did you use for this vid with the hard base? It got my feet moving in the shop, n wood love more. Thanks!!

[@liquidrockaquatics3900]

You could buy some random brand of greens, or get moringa olifera leaf powder. Then add a little ginger, turmeric and black pepper. You’re welcome.

[@bloater5706]

That’s one very beautiful cabinet. But fact checkers say that Pittsburgh Pennsylvania is the city of bridges with 436 bridges.

[@chriswitek9455]

the fact that you arent at 2m subscribers and over 300k views on every video is criminal. theyre stunning works, intricate methods that people dont even attempt much less pull off, theyre handmade, theyre creative, and mostly theyre clearly made with pride. everything you make is awesome, hopefully one day i can get to this level or even close.

[@tomasjosefvela1]

Well stated, I feel the same!!

[@linwoodnymph6113]

That is really cool!!! I love the veneer! And those angles! That's amazing! 🙂 FYI - There is some dispute over which city in the United States can claim the nickname of the City of Bridges. Portland, Oregon, claims the name in honor of the 12 bridges in the city limits that span the Willamette River, according to Open Oregon. While Portland's bridges are well-traveled, those 12 bridges pale in comparison with fellow contender Pittsburgh. The Pennsylvania city disputes Portland's claim to be the City of Bridges. They want the nickname for themselves, according to WBUR, because of the 446 bridges crisscrossing the Pittsburgh city limits.

[@elonf6164]

This channel is certainly evolving, and I'm enjoying the ride. The middle part of this video was just awesome. I'm loving that you're letting all the weird out. The music, editing, and jokes were all a blast. Thanks for letting us in on the eggs. That would have had me up all night wondering.

[@SawyerDesign]

Hey thanks so much Elon! Glad you’re enjoying as I learn more how to video

[@chrisstearns10]

Awesome job!!!! You keep pushing the bar higher😁 After 25 years of smoking I stopped but definitely still a fan, might pick it up again later. If I get cancer a third time I will definitely be smoking through Chemotherapy again. You got me to laugh with the fart noise🤣 I like your humor Nick😁 the 90's had the best music of course 😉 my jaw dropped when you presented your workbench sketches😛😛. Put rubo it the title if you want but I wouldn't, might need some time to think of what to name it but it's definitely deserving of a new title in my opinion😁as for the split top or solid top my vote is solid top👍go massachusm😁👍👍👍

[@Volksaholic]

Awesome video and project. As others have said, your videos are well produced and the music is tasteful and adds to the transitions. I like your design aesthetic. I came to your channel after you posted the McDonald's... uh... I mean Bridge Arch Roubo on the r/Workbenches subreddit. I'll say I"m an old guy and I love it, so you're not pissing all of us off by breaking the mold! I love your use of arches. Straight lines can be nice but tastefully done curves take it to the next level, IMHO.

[@jobkneppers]

Do you actually smoke the wood you're using or is it just ganja in between? Nice work! I'm a "mechanic artist" and recognized some of your vibes. If I like the solution I go for it. Building it is another challenge and sometimes pretty difficult. But oh so satisfying when it all works. Clients get confused in the meantime but the final result gives them a big smile too. This helps getting your bills paid as a minimum. As a maximum I discovered; new clients are in cue! ;-) Stay safe and all the best, Job (one tip; draw your design first in CAD. When a project get complicated it's a great help for finetuning details and showstoppers or bummers upfront. And you can start working right away in between with the parts you're confident about you need anyhow. You can also retract printed templates for your parts with it. A3 is a comfortable size for the not so big parts and I print them in my shop. I also used banner sized paper templates but they where printed for a few euro's/dollars in a shop close by. I guess you are using a cad model but you don't show it in your video's or at least I didn't get it. But why not mention it. Oh and I'm an ocd (?) person too; sorry about the cap in between the top curve and the top of the drawer... But maybe this is why you made it this way... Let me know

[@romlyn99]

Taking AG-1 is a great idea. But the symptoms you listed suggest more is going on then just lacking certain vitamins. You should also look at your diet and do a food sensitivity intolerance test. Sometimes you can vastly improve your health and mood, by removing foods you have a high intolerance or sensitivity to.

[@BillManiotakis]

Great video and project but I don't like to wear my Rolex in the shop. Ha Ha!

[@maartenstraver3737]

what a joy to watch! do you perhaps have a vid where you show that vertical jig for your Domino DF500? That looks like a awesome jig to make. Thanks for your awesome vids, keep up the good work 👍

[@ericthomson6518]

Pretty sure that's 'Italian' aka engineered ebony made from a composite and not legit Macassar but beautiful nonetheless! Awesome build and video.

[@bjornkarl5753]

great channel, very informative, keep it up. Nice greetings from Germany!!

[@tmcgoyne]

Great video, the music really kept me on your video... i typically don't last past 15 minutes but before I knew it the video was over.

[@J4Julz]

When you have a sweet glass collection such as that, you need the proper case/box. Your box beats the pants off the glass industry standard issue plastic gun case. More blowers should take the hint!

[@faylock7693]

Eggs, easy over, on top of corned beef hash,,,,,, thats what I had for lunch! Just incase you wanted to know LOL

[@VC-uo3pj]

That little mistake on the dovetail, that’s what you get for digging on the old fart 80’s groove….🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jedrinck]

Wouldn't expect the average user of glass pipes to bother with a fancy box for them. It's a great box and I hope it doesn't end up in a homeless guy's shopping cart.

[@shanebrown2404]

What is thae name of that small dovetail chisel with the beveled sides you used on this project? Thanks for the content!

[@aaronneubert2583]

I literally watch every single one of your videos and there has always been something about your personality that I find similar to mine but I could never place it until now. When you answered the question of how you get so many things accomplished, it made all the sense. That thing makes a world of difference for me and also allows me to elevate my design process, and then execute my over zealousness. My wife hates me during the building process but always comes around when she sees the finished piece. Thank you again for yet another entertaining video that is also packed with inspiration. I can't wait to see the Roubo build. *Please don't incorporate an epoxy river into it.

[@SawyerDesign]

Haha I would never! Dude that’s one of the better things that’s happened in life. It’s nice to have the drive. The more you do, the more you want to do.

[@peterst6906]

Dope box. Split top, but with an insert that can make it a solid surface

[@kyorising]

cool design.. not super impressed with the finish.. the top arch isn't straight on the sides and doesn't appear to sit flat against the top? And exposed screw heads on a project this nice, bleh.

[@liquidrockaquatics3900]

What is the top of your table saw treated with, or is it something other than cast iron? 10:13

[@telefrag93551]

15:18 - when the Doom music kicks in 😎

[@OleGraci]

Great work! Where do you get your veneer from? Looking to ease the learning curve with a good source.

[@jakefromstatefarm9721]

Back in my day we put our weed in a plastic bag and smoked it out of beer can. Times have changed.

[@PaulSmith-fg8sz]

I know you were taught to cut away from yourself. Lol. Truly enjoy your work. Keep it up!

[@jenniferwhite6089]

i have to agree on the plans and combination squares and sit them one i go very tired of people asking me for tools too kind of decked the owner of the company for thinking i should share my tools with others it is his company he should be the one should have company tools i am busy with my own furniture building for my house now all of the CNCs i have are now set up and in operation mode too

[@Laserdiscrepair]

Where did you get the macassar ebony veneer? That specific pattern is beautiful and I want to get some for a rosewood matching project.

[@bennykirksey9776]

There is no shame today. I like ceremonial glass flutes and love the music they play!

[@Angusrox01]

Loved the clip and am interested in getting one of those vacuum bags. Any ideas where these can be had.

[@JARMade]

very nice very nice! i love me some bent wood lol

[@bennykirksey9776]

At the 2:40 mark, a nod to AMC/GME? Sorry to be so short though it is time to blow this joint!

[@robertgarrett9204]

Very nice box. Looking forward to the Solid to bench.

[@Richard.Dawson]

Hey man, can you do some patterned plywood??? Please believe me when I say I was joking!!! Great job! Another piece of art. Since I'm not a designer, I can't tell you how many good ideas I've gotten from you by watching your videos. Thank you for sharing so many different, complicated projects. Your use of complex angles & curves is a welcome change from all the other cookie cutter channels.

[@jgonzo1995]

Man, where are you getting that macassar veneer? Is that echowood/reconstituted?

[@jgonzo1995]

p.s. - split top ftw. The bridge has traffic going in both directions, right? You could inlay some lane markings in the top if you want to get literal with it...

[@SawyerDesign]

It’s from certainly wood. They’re pretty much the only option for raw 1/16” veneer.

[@tylerryan3797]

Split top, with a hand tool storage insert in the gap. Then you can have the best of both worlds

[@1320crusier]

Sneak peak looks more like a Moravian meets English joiners bench.

[@bradhayes1482]

Are you serious? You have been only woodworking for a couple of years?

[@loneevergreenwoodworks3199]

Super dope video and box man. I have to say The Sawyer bench should be a solid top.

[@dwayneattard5265]

Split top. also the arc feet need to be flush with the outer edge of the table for better clamping

[@mikesionu]

us 80's people also had Real Metal and so some of us missed the main steam garbage.

[@Xanderbelle]

Vacuum. 15 psi what ever way you cut it.

[@CheveeDodd]

Us 80s kids listened to 70s rock. 🙃

[@chrisallen2594]

Nick: I am curious where you find your roll laminate?

[@neilphillips3193]

That is one dope build. The angled dovetails are blowing my mind! Love the workhandling solution for the drawers to get the piston fit. Might steal that. Do a solid top, with a slim tool well added, but use a spacer to get you the split. Hope that makes sense. Just recently found your channel, but quickly became one of my favorites. You have some amazing pieces and your video production is on point. Great work!

[@SawyerDesign]

Hey thanks so much Neil!

[@m.m.7511]

So you use methamphetamine...? Lol. Amphetamines...

[@dougivan100]

You can borrow my drum sander if I can borrow your vacuum press 😄

[@ryderscustomcreations3665]

Adderall and psy-trance isn’t “real” woodworking! Like a CNC you just push a button (or pop a pill) and the woodwork just happens… cheater! Try some handtools Nick, like a true craftsman…. 😂 haha JK Another great video! You have me wanting to do some bent laminations myself.

[@SawyerDesign]

🤣 I mean, that’s a fair argument. Thanks man! Go bend some wood!

[@jimjames6287]

Any links for the glass blowers or the wrapper?

[@BandSWoodcraft]

we 80s people dealt with that music by using MOUNTAINS of nose candy...so we don't remember it anyways.

[@SawyerDesign]

Hahahaha fair enough

[@MrWaldorfian]

What are those glass thingies in the drawer? Hash pipes?

[@MrBiddo]

all VAC PUMPS do not SUCK THE SAME AMOUNT, what an misinformed statement to make...

[@SawyerDesign]

Should have clarified, *All the vacupress pumps pull -.8 bar

[@glencrandall7051]

It looked like it was going to be a good project but I bailed at 12:07 because of what I suppose is called music. All the banging and whistling. Sorry. I would have muted the sound but then I couldn't hear your comments.

[@SawyerDesign]

Sorry sir, I’ll take my music and get off your lawn. Damn kids, amirite?

[@justinvellier6220]

Beautiful box. The roubo bench, if you build it so you can see the arch through the split that make it a split top. If not than go solid top with a different color wood in the middle to represent the lines that divide the road since it looks like a bridge.

[@bwhite220]

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!! That fart dub had me dying!!!!!

[@ZRYO]

Please, stop this annoying ''music''

[@renancarvalho719]

So aside from being my favorite woodworker you also listen to Psytrance. What can I say, hell fucking yeah
