There are a lot of designs - such as that one - that I'd have to say are in the public domain based on how frequently and likely they are made and used by woodworkers the world over. It is always fun to see someone deliver their own twist or take kn a classic. Now, if it is a thing which someone has absolutely created from scratch and never publicly shared a video on, then you're likely splitting hairs. If someone shares a video of them making a thing, they'll likely inspire others to attempt it.

I made a couple of those in '82 so my wife and I could use them when canoe camping. A guy I worked with had a couple made by his grandfather and he let me borrow one for a weekend to get dimensions. They were originally made with straight stiles/legs so when 'folded' the chair would lay flat in a canoe. You could put your tent and sleeping bags on them, keeping them out of the water that always finds its way into canoe bottoms. Then use them to sit around the camp site at night. While our canoe was sold when we could no longer lift them onto the roof of the van the chairs are still fine.

Awesome video again! I hope all is wonderful with you and your family. I liked Little Bit's boots too! I've been complaining about it getting over 100 here for the last week or two, but the temps up here aren't nearly as bad as they are for you. I had to use a trencher a few years ago, I had to board up the windows and I found myself wishing for full body armor and a helmet to protect from all the rocks it was flinging at me. If you are interested, I'll try to find the website address that should have the parts you need to permanently fix your 'new' table saw. They carry a lot of stuff, and they were able to get me parts I needed to fix my Craftsman jointer that was built in 1981, so I'm guessing they would have the parts you need.

April Wlikerson is a awesome content creator as well as many others. I watch content creators with small shops because I could relate to them. Then what happens? Their channel blows up and they start getting sponsorships, getting all the fancy and expensive tools, and of course....a much bigger workshop. Now, I can no longer relate to these content creators, because they no longer have to be limited by their shop size, tools, and whatnot's. Please, don't get me wrong. It is awesome they were able to grow their channel and I wish all of them much continued success. However again, I can no longer relate to them. Also, now they portray a celerity status demeanor (which is sad). I still watch some of them now and then if it is of interest to me and/or I can relate to the subject matter. Go back and watch some earlier videos of your favorite content creator, and compare to them to their most recent videos. Again, I do wish them all much success. I have been told if you don't like what you see on TV....Change the channel. Which I do. By the the way....I enjoyed your video. You have a good sense of humor and you make your videos interesting.

It's a little bent but is ok for cutting stuff you don't care about gluing up. Then I acquired a used Delta contractors saw - from the dark ages. I discovered (or should I say my son discovered) quickly that there were NO safety features on this puppy. I had to clean the rust and paint off it but it cuts a lot truer. It is heavier than all get-out and with no wheels, it doesn't go very far, very often. A new saw? Now that would be nice!

never let a child flip the breaker for the first time. for real, professional electricians who are more safety conscious usually stand to the side and look away when a breaker is turned on for the first time. there is always a chance of a life changing explosion. even if it is a tiny chance.

I think the first time I saw this chair designs was about the time you bought your death trap that died in this video. There was no KZbin and the WWW was pretty new. I saw it in a woodworking magazine. There really are not many new ideas I’d woodworking.

You and her are both awesome woodworkers. I see a lot of hate for her and Tamar both on various social media platforms, and I don’t get it. One person called one of them woodshop Barbie and a hack. I mean the barbie part was funny lol, but them being a hack is just stupid.

She's a MUCH better woodworker than I am. I hope you saw the end of the video when I gushed about how great she is. I've watched her since she first started almost ten years ago, and have tremendous respect for her. I don't poke fun at any creator I don't love.

May I, with full respect, kindly ask you to upgrade your table saw with a riving knive? You are much to valuable for the workers community to stop yourself eventually with a piece of wook shooting back into your stomach...

@@worstworkshop That is the solution I am pursuing with my old Craftsman saw. Was never happy it didn't have a riving knife (don't believe it even has that as an option to easily mount one), but adding a splitter to a zero clearance plate should do the trick. Micro Jig has one, Kreg does too I believe.

My 2 cents if they matter, is that it’s not about stealing. I guess if you’re creating content that’s a different story. But as far as making something to sell? They don’t live in my town. So if I use either one, technically I’m stealing too. But they aren’t here. And why put it on KZbin if you aren’t expecting people to be “inspired”?

There is nothing amazing about her other than she spent money on tools she doesn't know how to use properly😅 I can and have designed and built this. The one thing all these youtube "Woodworkers" are missing is BASIC MATH SKILLS! Show me how to build a basic tapered cup with only the table saw, glue and some sandpaper and have it not fall apart than we will talk about saying youtuber "Woodworkers" are actual 1st year carpenters

You're not wrong. There are actually some amazing woodworkers on KZbin, but most of them don't have big channels, because they're not very good at making videos. April is a content creator first, a businesswoman second, and a woodworker third. But it's also interesting to see how much better she's gotten over the years. At first, she really wasn't any good at all. She's gotten much better.

@@worstworkshop any of the "bigger" channels that climb fast and they are only "bigger" because of the views they have being "content" based and not actual skill base, is mostly women because it is a male based audience viewing this "content". The actual good woodworkers that know what they are doing and have actual skill and the most important is knowledge of the subject matter are the smaller and older channels. This DIY stuff in terms of woodworking is a mockery of actual skilled tradesman that have real honed skills everywhere on this planet. These DIY woodworking channels are exactly why good skilled carpenters say no to can you fix my failed attemtps. Thus the birth of the unskilled handyman

Of course! I actually have nothing but good things to say about both these creators, whom I've followed forever. Watch the video and you'll see. The stealing thing is just a joke, and clear it all up at the end of the video. FYI, the nesting chair goes back at least a hundred years. That's part of what made it funny to me. If you find it offensive, accept my apology. I was just poking fun at some of my heroes.
