omg f%^king brilliant. Ive just binged on too many videos as I have to get up in a couple of hours but i am grateful for this find its worth my destroyed day tomorrow. i cant wait to get home and watch the rest of your work. beautiful creative intuitive and unique with care and love and pride. perfect artistry sir

[@rdkraft7]

You’re too talented to do ‘simpler’ projects. You’ve found a specific niche and provide insight/knowledge of high level furniture making that you really don’t see often on KZbin. Stick with this path, it may take longer to build a huge audience, but what you’re making is a highly dedicated and engaged user base. While I’m not talented enough to replicate what you’re doing, I’ve learned some valuable methods and practices that I apply to my more mundane builds.

[@benjaminschlauch6576]

Do not change your videos. They are amazing. Seeing high level carpentry is by someone of your caliber is a gift.

[@steveferguson1232]

I love the series, not having everything thrown into one 40 minute video. This lets you get technical and explain the problems and how to fix. I’m a problem solver myself still at 64. I love watching your work and how you do your videos. I hope you don’t change it

[@russianbear2]

His designs are on another level. It's not just execution it's the whole cohesive idea to design to product that makes his staff exceptional and next level great.

[@mattelias721]

Nick, I love the problem-solving. In many ways, that's one of the biggest rewards of woodworking, so my vote is to defy the algorithm and put what you want into the episode.

[@sgcrso2230]

Nick, the QUALITY of your content is UNMATCHED on this platform. However long it takes to bring that to bear is worth every moment. Please continue to explore, expand and entertain at your leisure. Thank you sharing!

[@anthonyseiver7000]

I like the detailed complex build videos. The ones that show monotony and problem solving because that is at the heart of every woodworking project.

[@psguardian]

I enjoy watching fine detail craftsmanship from multiple disciplines; wood working, watch making/repair, welding, automotive mechanics/fab, etc. More regular uploads would be great, but that's just the nature of a consumer. We always want more. Do what sets you on fire (metaphorically), we'll be here to watch it unfold.

[@tanner6112]

Stay technical nick, its what sets you apart. No rushing, well thought out plans, with extremely high detail and craftsmanship - one of the best of our era that we get a glimpse at. Appreciate the videos and the content. If I make one single piece in my lifetime, that even remotely resembles one of yours, I will be extremely happy.

[@travismaxwell1358]

I appreciate the longer format and series. Problem solving is one of my favorite parts of craftsmanship and everyone approaches things differently. Never the less I will watch your videos no matter what style you record them in so keep doing you. I think as a design element the even reveal on all the tambours was a great move. Probably my favorite aspect of the project so far

[@richardducati]

Oh please, oh please, oh please, don't stop making video's even if my jaw is on the floor each time. Man, you're the best : absolute joy every time

[@airnashville3883]

Perhaps the most enjoyable parts of your videos are your efforts to take on new challenges. I watch other makers make more or less the same thing over and over. That can never be said of your work. Keep pushing the boundaries.

[@TheNIcolin]

Just wanted to say I loved this series. I know the KZbin algorithm may not reward you for going so in depth on the technical detail as well as taking the time to keep the production value of the videos so high, but as a fellow furniture maker I really got a lot out of watching this series and all the work that you're putting into both the woodwork and the videography is noticed and appreciated.

[@donaldadams5342]

It's been a while since I was last able to sit & enjoy your videos because of adjusting to home life changes. My wife came down with Dementia initially & if that was not enough, she was later diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. It has taken a bit of adjusting becoming her Primary Carer when I have been disabled for 36 years. The good thing is that we are still together at home as we have been for 60+ years now. This is one fantastic piece of work to come back to. Your skills are amazing & are matched by your commentary as well. Delightful video, cheers, Don from South Australia.

[@wheels2757]

Being an engineer (sorry) I love the technical details in this series. Keep ‘em coming. BTW. I am in awe of the design and results of your efforts on this table. It’s more a work of art than a piece of furniture.

[@joelw6215]

Freaking awesome. That last shot with the door shutting was the best view. It almost takes you on a ride. So smooth.

[@hebie666]

This channel would be my biggest inspiration for getting into woodworking instead of just watching. The "boring" details are definitely something that appeals to me personally. Seeing high level craftsmanship emboldened me to try myself and Im sure many others who watch your channel are like-minded in the regard.

[@sbrega]

Your style of approaching crazy hard projects that turn out amazing is why we're here! Would love more frequent videos, but not at the cost of that Sawyer magic

[@edmccullough1828]

The inclusion of the technical aspects of the build and problem solving techniques are much appreciated. You can find plenty of high level overview build videos, but unless you are making simple projects, problem solving and and adjustments are a huge aspect of woodworking. Allowing us to see and hear some of those insights and processes is very instructive. Thanks!

[@davidbuffington9644]

Everything they said, I came to say.

[@troybayham5723]

The detail is what I most appreciate. It allows you to show case your craft as much as the piece you are working on. Let's everyone see how much of the mental game is needed for this. Your work is amazing, and although I'm not into the "modern" type projects, I never miss one of your video and I learn from you all the time. Don't know if you ever watch the Sampson Boat Co. rebuild of the Tally Ho, I'm certainly not into boat building (though I would love a new boat 🙂), but the incredible craftsmanship that goes into that keeps me coming back. Again, really enjoy watching you work.

[@Jacksterific]

Your channel reminds me of the early years of FineWoodworking Magazine. Highly original - highly technical - well explained - exquisite execution. I learned woodworking from that magazine. It inspired me to stretch, to design, and to think things through in order to create what I saw in my minds eye. 40 years later, your channnel does the same for me again. Thanks! Stay the path you are on.

[@royunderwood7514]

Your problem solving skills absolutely make your work stand out and above. Damn fine work.

[@mikehitchcock3850]

I love the way you present your woodworking. I came for the stunning work, but the in-depth description is what I stay for. I hate it when people just show off their work. Your explanation of your thought processes and techniques inspires me to try to do things myself. I may never be able to work at your level, but your videos encourage me to keep thinking and to keep trying.

[@rhythmguru1]

I'd say you can get milage out of both versions of the build videos and gets you more milage out of your filming and editing efforts. One high level video at the end for people who just want the zen. But the build series for us who constantly struggle in the work shop is great too. We get to see your problem solving skills, which happens to be the key to a lot of building (even just the low level stuff some of us put together). It provides the "think outside of the box" and since you seem to hate boxes (at least square ones) it works!

[@toddharris9466]

Keep being a nerd! I watch you to learn and get inspiration. Maybe do both, do the series and when done edit out the nerdy parts for an overview vid

[@typicalthrill]

I enjoy the technical details because they stick in the back of my mind and you never know when they will be needed. The simple stuff is good too, and I still learn from it, but filling in the gaps with the details is very helpful.

[@bluecurlygirl]

I'm salivating looking at that table. Is that wrong? Don't care. It's a thing of beauty. It's a joy watching it come together. Well done young man.

[@amydpnw]

Congrats on finding a really nice way of integrating ads into the content. I find that I don't mind the sponsor message with the content. I even listened to it. Hats off!!

[@Grey_Area570]

Just keep doing what you do, its the reason we are here in the first place.

[@scottsingley3198]

I personally love to watch how you tackle these really complex builds. You do an excellent job narrating the whole process, bringing us along for the ride. It's interesting to learn how you approach each step and then adjust when you need to. I learned about high-end furniture and the huge effort it takes to build these magnificent pieces.

[@carlosmaraviglia2513]

I think the technical details of how you approach the challenges in this beautiful project is incredibly instructional. I see from the comments that there are other engineers and techies who really love this approach. I am also an engineer and hobbyist woodworker for the last 35 years. I get so much out of your videos that I end up watching them three or four times and taking notes. Keep up the good work.

[@yinyangloko]

It's not possible to enjoy more than when you get technical AF and my brain short-circuits and melts. The complexity of your projects is a duality thing, as it motivates in an amazing way while making you feel absolutely humble. I only know that I don't know anything, as "that guy" said.

[@TabAtl]

Nick, that’s the prettiest piece of furniture. You’re such a talent.

[@johnmoody2042]

Jesus your narration is almost as god tier as your craftsmanship

[@markcummins8061]

Like the details. Also the "gaps" look better in my opinion. They add a level of detail themselves

[@CherrieMcKenzie]

For a lot of people the table saw is the go to for a lot of projects. I fell in love with the band saw after using it as my default from the scariness of the table saw and it opened up a whole new world. I'm less afraid of the table saw now but picked up a whole new way of doing things with the band saw. This video has given me tons of new ideas for things to try. Thank you!!

[@johngayer7835]

I enjoy the technical problem solving and walking us through your thought process. It has helped me look at issues that occur during my projects is a different way, aiding in solving those problems.

[@hask9033]

My only complaint about your videos is that they don't come out often enough. Always something worth waiting for

[@nyshanelson2252]

I agree with you about people with high levels of skill and aptitude. Even though I am not a woodworker I really love your approach to your work, problem solving, the problems and successes and especially the beautiful results. I vote for geeking out, but bottom line - You do YOU!

[@barnamadau7857]

The, "I'm doing something really hard that I don't know how to do," is the best part of this channel. One thing I've learned in life is you have to do the thing you don't know how to do in order to learn how to do it. Often times that means learning how not to do it the first few times. I get really burned out on so many KZbin channels that feel like they need to constantly teach at you. Watching the road to discovery is far more inspirational.

[@ragnoon]

it's always a good day when a new video comes out from you!

[@michaeldoto4673]

Nick, I absolutely love seeing the technical details of the design and building of these projects. Problem solving is key life skill that everyone must acquire to be a successful human being and we must continue to develop it as we grow, so yes, please continue to include this aspect in your videos. Moreover, this cabinet is gorgeous!

[@nickyt3269]

HONEY HURRY UP, THE NEW SAWYER DESIGN JUST DROPPED!!! I havent seen one of your videos that I didnt like, the passion and artistry always comes through. Make the things you like to make, and i will watch em!!

[@scottb.2022]

I'm a woodworking geek - so I like the technical stuff (don't see it on other woodworking channels).

[@padkins1986]

I like this style series. The more challenging builds with deeper explanation are the best

[@JS-hu7pv]

Gotta give you some hand claps for using the THX logo sound at the start of the video. And freaking incredible build.

[@drukilkelly8599]

Dude - definitely keep rolling with this type of video - it's amazing to see the quality of work in minutia and totally worth the wait.

[@hamishkirkness6933]

Massive understatement but... Nice build!!! As for "wood nerd" details - that's what I watch for. Problems solving ideas and different techniques are pure gold. I have wondered about power feeders for table saws but never gave much though to using them on a band saw. Vacuum bagging has been on my radar as well so really nice to see how you fit it into the order of operations - beyond just a simple veneering.

[@johnnyb8629]

I like long form multi episode projects. The more challenging the better, its the problem solving that's the juice for me. Sure, art is important, elaborate creativity and function but the road to success gives it value.

[@EspMaster]

I'm really enjoying the technical builds and narrative! It's motivating to see you tackle these difficult challenges and learn how you went about taking on projects like this. Looking forward to part 4!

[@patbryant4610]

I appreciate your projects for the craft, the artistry and the sheer nerdiness and detail you present. Please continue to share your passion and process.

[@MCsCreations]

Stunning, Nick! Really beautiful work!!! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@cliffkelly7613]

Keep them details sawyer! Thats why we watch your channel. Great work as as always.

[@woodbyrd]

I think the detailed, technical build vids vs the broad stroke build vids all depend on the build. A lot of your builds are like this one where their much more unique/artistic/sculptural than a 'typical' furniture piece, so the more detailed vids where you go into techinique and thought process are fitting (and enjoyable!) but others like your textured walnut cabinet, while awesome as well, is closer to a tradional piece that you could pull off (as you did) a single vid. But either way, always enjoy watching... and don't stop with the awesome soundtracks lately!

[@benrudman3917]

Nick that grain work is absolutely insane. You just keep raising the bar man. Long time follower. -Ben

[@adamkirkland4348]

Bring on the technical. Also don’t ever stop making content the way you do. To many talented people have gone commercial. You are one of the only ytrs that I look forward to your videos comming out. Because you are still making awesome furniture and not a commercial for some brand.

[@dannielfriedrichsen7226]

Yes, please. More videos with more details, thoughts, decision-making, reasons why, and mistakes...if any. Boldly going where I sure as heck can't go. Thanks.

[@donnysarvis]

Gorgeous! The pattern on that veneer is freaking perfection. Love the minutia and technical details

[@elonf6164]

The technicals, the complexity of your projects, and the attention to detail are all reasons why this channel is one of my favorites. Now if we can just get the sucking sound of the bag back and a few more jokes again... ;)

[@greggoryrandall4355]

I may not find myself attempting to build your level of furniture, but sure do appreciate and respect your craft. I do enjoy your commentary and humor. I wouldn't go simpler just for the sake of videos for others. If you have upcoming projects, then film, edit and produce. Godspeed.

[@tektrixter]

I love the more technical side of things. It is great to see all the detail in your work.

[@Ivo_Serra]

Nick, there's no doubt you're one of the best woodworkers on KZbin. I just wish you had the recognition you deserve! Having said that.... I kind of miss the older projects. Less veneer, less engeneering, more joinery! If you could give us some of that back, it would be great. It might come the day were my level of woodworking will make me want to do something like trying veneer, but because I feel I'm pretty far from that, I still prefer more traditional technic to do the amazing things you can do. Still, always mandatory to watch every video. All the best for you.

[@briannelson4122]

I'd keep on doing what you're doing! I know that's a pretty simplistic way of putting it, but your builds require a more in depth explanation to really convey just how cool the pieces are. If you were to just look at them it would be "that's an awesome piece!!" After watching the complete build video ,I know I say, "geez! so many things to go south! That's some craftsmanship!" Your format is why I look forward to your builds. I'm a retired construction guy and I like seeing the process! I appreciate your pain!

[@MyDabblings]

I enjoy watching your videos and you make some amazing pieces. Please keep going with what’s in your heart and mind. I don’t need simpler videos, I enjoy the complex and detailed.

[@lukemartin9037]

Wood movement comment had me giggling before 1min mark! Instant like

[@TheWoodenHobbyist]

This is the part of the series I’ve been waiting for 🎉

[@BlueSkiesUnlimitedBlogspot]

I am loving your multi part, technical series. Please do more of them!

[@mkdrivingzone]

Michael Alm - King patterned plywood. Nick Sawyer - King of patterned veneers.

[@JoshVDW1234]

This is exactly what I want from your channel. You are extremely knowledgeable and technical, I want all that. Maybe just maybe some of your knowledge will seep into my brain and come out in the shop. THANK YOU

[@keatonbeyerwoodworking]

I enjoy the technical videos. It shows what's possible and you have a great cadence and way of explaining it. Most of your viewers won't make what you make, but they may be inspired to try a new technique they never knew existed

[@walterrider9600]

thank you . i like explanations

[@seanhanlon5867]

I love watching skilled guys using those skills

[@TJ-vv9dl]

As an intermediate woodworker I really enjoy the details. Awesome build!

[@lesthomas4606]

The technical is awesome! Thank you very much. This way you teach our craft and not just supply entertainment. thank you very much for sharing your knowledge and skills

[@hacesconhyconc]

Hermano. I really love the technical details. It's the first thing that kept me in your videos all this time. I'm a huge fan!!!

[@mjfister]

To your question from the video... I appreciate your imagination and really like seeing the techniques used. Keep making extraordinary things as too many of us get stuck doing more mundane commissions... Best, Mike

[@ennisventer8038]

Soon they will be talking about one of the greats in woodworking ! I’ve said it before . It’s humbling watching you work 😢😂😂

[@bronsontaylor7333]

I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your son. That's devastating. But I appreciate your openness/honesty. I really like the in depth explanations/detailed videos. And I'm not good at segues. Cheers.

[@davidhammond8049]

Am I allowed to say "sod the upload schedule - this is so good it's worth waiting for!" Kind regards David in the UK

[@jamesneylon7335]

Incredible, I have been a cabinet maker for 20 yrs, coming from an electronics background. I therefore love both the technical aspects as well as the artistry and beauty of your work. Thank you

[@theeggman1341]

I’ve seen you produce some amazing work in the past. But this one has blown my mind. We’ll done.

[@make-somedust]

I enjoy problem solving issues as they arise. So this style works for me. Nice work!

[@nathangeringer9147]

I wish there was an option for the very detailed videos, more frequently. But I get that your just one man crushing it in a garage shop.

[@kdavidwhite8376]

really cool Nick. Myself, I'm kind of a math nerd, and my primary job is that of an engineer, so I really like when you dive into your design and problem solving. keep cranking it out.

[@judestewart3955]

It looks amazing - well done. I love seeing the “technical stuff “ as I’m just in awe how you do it.

[@annettehawkins8467]

Dude you are so freaking amazing! That was such an incredible piece! Don’t change the format. Great video

[@nathanpegram2312]

Good video, I definitely prefer the detail. If someone doesn’t want detail just tell them to mute the volume. I like the epic videos and spectacular projects like this. They help me personally become a more intelligent woodworker. As I do more projects, when I make an error, I usually have an idea of how to fix it because I’ve seen so many videos. Thanks for good content

[@alanr745]

Dude. So cool. Nice work, patience, innovative thinking, jigging, and explanations. Not to mention, real humility. Such a treasure in a person nowadays. Well done Sir.

[@c.a.g.1977]

Those tambour doors looks so goddang good, Nick! And yes: show all the detailed stuff, love it!

[@kendallbelletti5974]

Man this turned out awesome! Also agree with some other comments, you’re too talented, technical, and sarcastic for short form videos. Gotta let that shine

[@BuiltKnotBought]

Good stuff as always nick, that sunrise veneer is so stunning

[@josiecapps2555]

Just found you. And I love, love what I see. I’m not a wood worker, but I appreciate great lover of perfection and taking 😊

[@rbpeders]

Hobby woodworker - keep it technical and loved the series🤘🏼 thanks for putting in the work for us!

[@coffeeguydave8149]

Absolutely love the more in depth series. It’s amazing to see how complex these pieces truly are. Love it!

[@klceve]

Wow... Its one of a kind.... Very good woodworking skills. 👍👍👍

[@KAYAKN]

Love the technical and talking your way through it.

[@thewoodworker106]

Love watching you build this. Great build series. Love watching the problem solving. Awesome job. Keep up the great work

[@barrychristian4050]

I am really enjoying this beautiful build, the more technical the better for me, the kinda disappointment of well that's not what I wanted to the one finger glide of happiness 😁 that's the drug right there! You are an artist and a craftsman! So much better than a 2*4 or a river table build

[@erichraudebaugh]

Please don't simplify the process or dumb it down at all. All the details are what makes these projects fun to watch.
