I miss Steve’s project videos. They inspired me to start building things myself, you’re the best Steve!

[@jesseedmands9631]

Honestly, I love seeing the mistakes. Everyone makes them in the shop, even the good ones. For me, it's a motivation killer. It's nice to see someone push thru and complete the project anyway

[@washellwash1802]

I work in construction as an electrician. Every house and building I've worked on I've seen mistakes made by every discipline involved. It's all fine, the only thing that matters is how you deal with them. Where you see a perfect piece, the maker will be seeing all the repairs and coverups. So when you're the maker, keep that in mind and just fix the mistake and move on with the project.

[@bobhaare4576]

Very true! The person making the mistakes has a hard time not fixating on them.

[@edeaglehouse2221]

[@foamy2001]

The main reason I love this channel is because it never starts with running stock through a $5,000 planer and/or joiner. A close second would be knowing that no project is perfectly cut and dry. I've only been trying to make things for a very short time, but every project has featured a moment where I make the same face as what we see at 10:55. It's so great to know this happens to everyone and makes me much more willing to laugh at myself when it happens, rather than beating myself up.

[@AlbertTao]

Very true! These are custom, one of kind pieces of furniture! The only time I get "flawless" pieces is if I mass produce something. I made salt cellars/keepsake boxes for Christmas last year and the first few had a bit of character, lol. Prototypes I kept for myself.

I could not agree more. Steve emphasizes the "Mere Mortals" portion. Mistakes happen and you have to fix them. And the tool set he uses is so approachable. Some of these build videos from other channels are almost a "hey, look at the tools I have" video. Like using a track saw to cut a chunk out of a crosscut sled.

[@coygraham5287]

When I started watching your videos I owned a hand saw and used it in a 2 car garage. Now that garage is a finished wood shop with air conditioning, planer, jointer, routers, etc. Why? Because when you build your skills you can turn those tool investments into a 5-10x value in finished products (even if just for yourself). Then you start seeing mistakes builders make, then you fix them. Then you start helping your neighbors. Woodworking is absolutely worth the investment to learn and it's thanks to your Weekend Woodworker course that I was able to learn.

[@mariondorsett]

I made this stool last week, and it came out great. I'm testing it out now to see how I want to modify it. I think I'll make the seat 18" wide, and add one more slat so I can put cushions on it so I don't feel like I'm falling off the edge. I also put all of the bottom rails inline, but I think I'll raise the two on the sides a little higher next time. I found I kept moving my legs to the outer edges, and those side rails were just a little too low for me at that point. This stool is sturdy, and solid. It doesn't rock, or creak when you're sitting on it. Thanks for the plans.... and the video.

[@nancyward9783]

Your videos were the first I watched when I began woodworking. It's so refreshing seeing someone not working solely with high end tools that a lot of us can't afford, so I appreciate your tool choices. Sure, I'd love to have a "woodpecker wall" like a lot of other KZbin creators, but unfortunately I know that's never going to happen, and I'm okay with that. I was glad to see this video because I thought you were only doing voice overs now and am relieved to see that's not the case. I enjoy your personality. Also, thank you so much for not being pompous and editing out all mistakes. Seeing creators make mistakes and how to fix them makes woodworking less intimidating and helps us learn. Thank you.

[@RobertDWilson81]

I love that you leave your mistakes in the videos and show how to simply and easily solve the issue without worrying too much.

[@737smartin]

Agreed! The un-aligned dowel inserts on the sides of the back were cringe worthy 😬, but it’s a project for the shop this time…not for a deck or bar.😅

[@asbrand]

Nifty design. As someone who does a LOT of dowel joinery, a few suggestions: Use a forstner bit. Makes a clean hole with zero tearout. And, use a pencil sharpener on the end of the dowel going into the wood...makes it easier to insert. Finally, if you really want them to pop, use a darker coloured wood for the dowels (cherry, or walnut). And, yeah, we ALL make mistakes...even after years of doing this.

[@tredd_dude]

Agreed, wondered why Steve not using them..There are cheap brands that work and easy to use. It might be that Steve does not know how to spell that F - word...People in Cally are different.....

[@tsekubbaloyan2100]

Question: When using dowels should I put glue on them?

[@asbrand]

@@tsekubbaloyan2100 - absolutely.

[@tristanmartin9894]

A Forster bit does make a clean cut. However unless you’re doing it on a drill press, good luck trying to make a perfectly straight hole. The shank is smaller than the blade so it doesn’t self index like a drill bit.

[@gjforeman]

All my projects are "Rustic". I like that. Sounds better than "Crappy" or "Poorly done". And you're not alone assembling something backwards. Between mistakes and spending 50% of my time searching for the tool I just put down, my progress is often glacial in nature. Good thing I don't try to make a living on this stuff. Great video. Think these would work well as bar stools on my patio. Far sturdier and cheaper than my current stamped steel Amazon specials.

[@bingitbaby]

You just inspired me to get back into my workshop. It is so nice to see a professional as your self making mental errors while building projects. I about gave up this weekend due to making several metal errors while building a production build. I cut half the boards wrong and didn't realize it until I went to assembling the projects. I took of my apron and tossed it on my bench, closed the garage door and went into the house. I told my wife I was putting woodworking on hold and going to concentrate on my 3D printing hobby. After watching you go through the process of realizing your mistake and correcting it, I've decide to go back into the shop and correct my mistakes and continue with my production project. Thanks Steve. I sure do miss your builds. Your lock down videos are the reason I started wood working in the first place. I would love to see more of these types of videos again.

[@JeffRL1956]

I agree that pocket holes aren't pretty, but they sell plugs in different wood species and they also sell a plug cutter so you can make your own from offcuts of the same board. To stop boards sliding around while clamping them, sprinkle a little salt or sand into the glued area first. It will have zero effect on the joint but the added friction really helps during assembly and clamping. To glue end grain, dilute some glue about 50:50 with water and brush that on the end grain. Let it (mostly) soak in and then glue the workpiece in place. The glue that soaks into the end grain helps the joint bond better because less of the "real" glue is wasted through absorption. Great project. Thanks for including the plans, too.

[@Ravvick]

Great to see projects again. I always get inspired when I watch these videos.

Loving the new style of video without music. Very calming and reflective. Really like the design of this stool with all the dowels. Very excited to hear about the new finish.

[@Rusty_ok]

I built this shop chair and it turned out great. There are a few things I would do different next time. I used pocket holes but reinforced each joint with 5/16” dowels. The seat is to deep. I would shorten the seat area by about 3 inches. That way you can sit with your back against the backrest and place your feet on the foot rest without the seat cutting into the back or your legs. I would move the lower foot rest from 6” from the floor to 8” from the floor. FYI my total cost in materials was $26.56.

[@JonnyDIY]

Great job Steve, good thing u didnt use glue on the frame. Hey I do the same type things all the time 🤦‍♂️ PS- I've found I need to make a jig for doing dowels just like when drilling shelf pins. Seems like especially with softwoods the bit wanders more when drilling and holes get all out of line.

Thanks for being as smart as Einstein Steve ;) Always love that you show your mistakes and explain how it is just part of the process. I haven't been woodworking very long but when I started I thought I was horrible because of the mistakes I was making. Then I saw Steve and a few other long time woodworkers explain that mistakes are a part of woodworking and you shouldn't feel bad about them. Learn from them and get better because of them.

[@MrGibsn1960]

Semi-pro tip: When drilling out the dowel holes, make a jig with the drill bit you want to drill the holes with, but with a drill press. Use that to keep the tear out/chatter by using it to help guide the bit. In other words, put the bit through your jig and line up the hole, then press that jig down to the surface you are drilling out and hold it in place. It'll keep your drill nice and straight. Love the video, subscribed!

If you need a weird tool to access your fasteners, you're either not planning ahead on assembly, or using the wrong type of joinery for the situation. I do like the tip with the dust and glue, that's good for anyone not just beginners to know you don't have to buy a special product for everything. In shop I learned it with either shellac or lacquer. Another tip that's important is to mark your parts more, pencil erases and sands off. Indicate the important face orientations and both sides of a joint to align.

[@thedevilinthecircuit1414]

A cool trick I learned from a 90-year-old cabinetmaker is this: keep a salt shaker in the shop. When clamping glued surfaces, apply the glue and then give it one or two small shakes of salt. The salt granules bite into the two opposing surfaces and prevent it from creeping as you apply clamp pressure. Sugar works just as well, but it tends to cake up in the container.

For use in my workshop, I wouldn't have an issue with using inexpensive construction grade lumber, but for outdoor use, such as patio furniture, I would use cedar, redwood, or some other lumber that is much better suited for outdoor use. I also wouldn't use pocket holes for the joinery for this project, because, they're rally not strong enough for this application, especially if someone who is built like me, checking in a 6'2", and 275 pounds is going to be sitting on it. Floating tenons (Festool Domino......which can be very affordably rented) or even dowels, are a lot stronger. I personally do not own a Festool Domino, but I do rent one, once or twice a year, for about $35 a day, plus a refundable deposit, which is MUCH MUCH easier on the wallet than the Festool's $1200 price tag. Construction grade SPF lumber for this stool would be great for a beginner to use as a "proof of concept" project, especially if for only a shop stool, but like I said earlier, wood that is better suited to handling Mother Nature's temper tantrums would be much better for outdoor use.

[@criscrisan8569]

You were so far along in the video without making mistakes, and I was like "something's not right, no mistakes?!". Seconds later the first, then the second 😅 Recently made a stool myself, made almost the same mistakes 😂

[@ivotouart]

A really easy way of getting equal spacing is setting the first and last slat, then bunching all the other slats up against either of them so you have just one big space and putting as many playing cards in that space as you can. Then count the cards and divide the number by the number of spaces you have and use that number of playing cards between each slat.
