This chair was VERY hard to make

[@vinnycordeiro]

What I love on Alexandre is that he isn't afraid to show his failures, so we can celebrate the success with bigger joy while learning along the process. Great job, man!

[@muddycontainer4241]

It's so easy to follow through the video, no need to pause and go back to re-watch.

[@mostrush4849]

I think you must soak wood in water for while before steaming it. furniture maker also use new wet wood or soak it before steam bending it. You should try that.

[@ExclemationMark]

Yes indeed. Because steaming without soaked up, means that not all the wood fibers have water. Soaking is better to have all the fibers soaking up water. 🙏

[@pauldubczuk2916]

The design and craftsmanship on this are very high-end bro. It's a shame that so much wood gets wasted with this process. Your final product is an extremely high-end piece. You must be so proud mate :)

[@jimlad01]

Great job and interesting to see the journey. I did wince a bit with the amount of wastage given the cost of wood at the moment and wonder if the seat could be laminated in the same way as the back rest supports. Cool chair regardless, thanks for sharing.

[@AlainPilon]

It does sound like a lots of waste is created, but keep in mind that (1) oak is relatively cheap (2) it is still WAY less pollution that anything you buy at IKEA!

[@Keechization]

@@AlainPilon wildly untrue on both counts

[@AlainPilon]

@@Keechization ? Oak is like 3$ per board foot even less if you buy it on marketplace. How can you call that expensive? IKEA furnitures use a shit load of chemicals for glue and finish. And dont forget all the gaz burned for transportation, packaging, etc... So please dont reply one liners without evidence to back it up.

[@madsenbaum]

When he said "THAT'S A CHAIR!!", I felt that.

[@BrilliantDesignOnline]

Two things as usual: an awesome attitude and even MORE awesome cleverness. (along with great production, explanations and demonstrations)

[@jonzmgnm]

Better, stronger, faster.....redemption for Alexandre! Loved the 'learning curve' aspect you shared with us rather than just magically producing a beautiful chair. Thanks for the honest and entertaining continuity, sir!

[@IggyJackson]

This kind of enthusiasm is what made me subscribe to your channel... Keep up the good work

[@MariusHornberger]

Nice seeing you work your way through trouble after trouble and getting better. How long was the delivery time on the A3-41?

[@achappel]

Thanks man :) we got lucky and got a display model from a local reseller, so only a couple of days :))

[@jasirek1732]

Hello, Marius. I am from Czech republic and we ordered some machines from Felder in June. Expected delivery time was 3, 6 and 8 months. We were told they have materials issues hence so long wait time.

[@MariusHornberger]

@@jasirek1732 ok, so about the same my delivery time. I waited 5 months when I got my saw

[@FrankTheTank417]

Love video. That fence on your planer/jointer looks like it has a lot of slop in it. Be careful with that. Either way the bending jig was smart. U don’t cease to amaze me bro.

[@AlainPilon]

I have the same combo machine, mine does not flex near as much so I think he was pushing WAY too hard to something is loose.

[@Quintenboss]

A chair is one of the hardest products to design. Great job on this one Alexandre!

[@TheSerious28]

I will never be making a chair or most of your progects but i just live to watch your vids. They are so positive and uplifting and full of energy.

[@Britney.J]

So happy for you! The chair is AWESOME!

[@vladomie]

Thanks for showing us your missteps and mistakes ....and for having a good attitude about it 😄

[@LlessurHterag]

Practice definitely makes perfect. Your never-give-up attitude is inspiring and I’m so glad you finally got the chair you wanted. The joy you show throughout the process (even when you fail) is infectious and it’s easy to see that you absolutely love doing what you do. Thanks for another excellent video Alex! 🙌🏼👏🏼

[@mrskwrl]

The ONLY channel I turned notifications on for.

[@Batendor]

There’s so much talent compressed into this video it is overwhelmingly inspirational. You are now my favorite crafting channel. Amazing job on all counts, presentation and work.

[@archys7]

found Your channel last week, and all i do in my workshop is watching Your videos in free time, so cool, nice inspiration maybe to open my own KZbin channel. Great videos.

[@tingae]

Always lovely to see you enthusiasm, Great work Alexandre.

[@MrPortdaven]

hot tip, if you use two even level sticks under the wood and use the bessy clamps ontop, much cleaner easier clamping and wont risk getting glue on the bars

[@shabanabader2948]

Your videos are definitely a treat. Thank you for making them. Even though I'm not a woodworker myself, I still look forward to your uploads and impatiently wait for them. It's just that you have such good craftsmanship, skills, knowledge and an ability to display all that in a very charismatic and insightful way, that not only helps us learn new things and strive for perfection but also possibly inspires many to make and create things. You're amazing, please keep doing what you're doing for as long as you can! ALSO, I HAVE AN IDEA/SUGGESTION/CHALLENGE For you: Can you try making a piece of furniture like a Sofa or a Bed, just by using 1 (or 2) sheets of normal plywood? With the same rules as the rule in your original chair project; It has to be DIYable for most people, should look good etc. I think it would be a fun challenge and I personally would love to see what and how you come up with something.

[@aadrick3174]

Gosh I love this channel

[@robertzarfas9556]

A proper review of that planer jointer combo after you’ve had it for a while would be cool. I’ve never seen a tool like that before.

[@monsieurjfgingras]

You are a true inspiration, thank you for the entertaining and educational content. Good work kiwico for sponsoring such fitting figure.

[@mplussant]

…thumbs down?…really?…I wish I lived next door to this guy…super impressive!…

[@xagvsx1521]

Awesome work. I suggest using the previous chair as a footrest!

[@Creative_Electronics]

Beautiful chair! Nice job Alexandre!

[@DubidQuack]

Really enjoy the troubleshooting! Great stuff!

[@Latubiful]

What a comeback!

[@ocpbmuse]

Nice. I’d love to see your cad process on this!!!

[@ggyun]

You showed the perfect way to waste material from CNC, good JOB!

[@neevdesignandconstruction5919]

hello from India, brilliant work would love to see something made out of all the waste(made by the cnc machine) into something useful!

[@JohnUllrey]

Nice job, looks really good.

[@3dfymyworld484]

you are a really good example of not giving up until you get it right!! nice video

[@Zackmex]

Very nice piece of furniture

[@DominusFeles]

I’ve got the exact same steamer, for the exact same purpose! 😄

[@LarsDunemark]

Greate video, can you make a video on how you create the CAM for dualsided machinery, handling tabs and pin location and Axis position.

[@twarit24]

New video yayaya. Such an awesome video. Finally the chair is finished.

[@mlefe09]

Excellent! Good job!

[@cayde7469]

That looks awesome! Great video man. 👍

[@woodworkingprocess]

beautiful chair good job

[@patrickyork2975]

Amazing work!

[@hsjawanda]

Congratulations!!

[@makethepart]

Fantastic job!

[@UNVIRUSLETALE]

That steam bending jig looks really easy to make, nice

[@Daweisstebescheid]

Please reduziert your Coffein Consumption , 2 gr. per hour is to mich 😂

[@oglaucio]

This is a Masterpiece, man. You should be proud of it! Cheers!

[@SirRasel]

You can also save some wood if you also laminate the back and the seat of the chair. I am almost sure that is the way school chairs are done.

[@falkaimark4799]

Nice to see that you listened to the advice under your last chair making vid :)

[@bobd.]

Very nice. It's a good feeling when you conquer a challenge like this. Now you just have to do that 3 more times to make a set of chairs.

[@GT0NY]

Congrats! Good job!

[@LEGENDoha9876]

I love that you show your failure too. I really enjoyed the video :-)

[@loopinnerthe]

Glorious

[@carstengad9158]

Absolutely beautiful work and what a good upgrade from the last one - Keep up the good work :)

[@Rouverius]

Great job! I had no doubt you could figure it out. Hey, and it looks amazing!

[@fredmartinez933]

nice job..Alexandre..

[@KimbrellBrad]

So glad to see that you were able to get a very nice jointer / planer! That brand is a really high-quality one. You will open up many new options now that you have most everything a woodworker needs! But surely you need some 3-D printed containers on that chair! LOL

[@pincraftgaming4327]

Hey man, love your videos. Informative and full of energy.

[@timdurham9091]

Definitely have shop envy.

[@imqqmi]

15:53 YEET! Very nice build! The bend wood turned out great! Did you use an extra thin saw blade? The band saw should also be able to produce thin strips but with less waste, though it needs to be perfectly adjusted.

[@marvinmaurer3116]

Awesome!

[@arifcd200]

Glad to see your success man, Awesome piece of work

[@CutTransformGlue]

That's so cool!!

[@Mikhaiel111]

Amazing job, I’m looking to get a CNC machine too. Chair looks good, but for a guy your size maybe a little higher back rest for the next one? Just a thought.

[@cristianvildrik8405]

Gratz. Thats a Nice Chair. 👍

[@EngineeringSpareTime]

Nice work!

[@fredflickinger643]

Just imagine those of the past creating chairs that have lasted the ages without all the machines.

[@mortenmoulder]

4:25 is there a more efficient way to cut those strips? If the strip is 3mm thick, and the blade is also 3mm thick, I'm assuming you lose 50% of your wood, if you use the whole piece (because you cut away material with the blade). I'm very curious

[@peterkuhlmann426]

Bandsaw?!

[@mauromusso9915]

You are amazing!!

[@MiroslavObrtel]

well done dude! well done.

[@MariusAraujo]

inspiring work, Alexander, as always. Question: what happens to all your sawdust, wouldn't it be an interesting project to make it useful again? (not burning)

[@Daniel-yc2ur]

Never seen someone be so happy from a chair lol

[@infomoizermekanik3223]

very pretty

[@FuzzeeDee]

If you are using kiln dried wood you need to add ammonia to the water. For the size of steamer you are using I think a cup would do it, but you may want to research it.

[@-7F]

You are the best man 👍🏻😊

[@Produkt_R]

Success!

[@lesumsi]

It has become already quite obvious, that you're skilled. But what I really, really like is your choice of wood! (in many projects so far) It seems like you're really paying attention to a lot of details like this!

[@g-dog100]

Charles and Ray Eames would be proud!!!

[@cr4nkk623]

great video! thanks for sharing :)

[@janmartens7954]

Fantastic effort. Makes you realize how difficult is is to work with “living” materials like wood… also really really expensive chair this way. Next time take some wood with maybe longer fibers, to gain additional strength

[@decomputerleraarable]

Very well done. BTW: How many amateurs do you think can make this the same way? Rob

[@patrykprzybyek3792]

Super

[@JerkerMontelius]

Please use wooden dowels to fix wood blocks to the CNC router spoilboard. In that case you never have to wory abour running into a metal screw and breaking a router bit.

[@H3xx99]

The only thing I would have changed on this would have been to add either dowels or biscuits to the legs on that long glue seam, just in case. But other wise, VERY AWESOME CHAIR!!!!

[@wesselwenneker1057]

You should make a flip top cart.

[@Markus-fw4px]

Amazing! Now without the CNC.

[@samc505-f4z]

Your office is looking nice!! When did you do that

[@etusax]

I really liked this video with the redemption arc. One thing that I think atleast I'd enjoy with this process of designing a chair: Create a spare, or two, of the pieces that hold the back. Then stress test them (without attaching them to any other parts of the chair) and see where they break. Then device a setup where you test what kind of force is applied to a back of a chair by sitting on it (sitting carefully, really going at it, etc at different speeds). Then you'd "know" for certain if you can trust your parts!

[@luizhenriqueromanholferrei6610]

its a really nice chair

[@Vollcar-bohn]

Oh you made it! Best news for 2021!! :D

[@aidennymes6335]

so glad you've made it :D absolutely love your videos !

[@XxHeManWomenHaterxX]

Great job as usual!! Always come back stronger and smarter. Also, the last time you had just made stool :) no problem!

[@kevinsete1992]

buen trabajo! jejej

[@mystertyie]

Do you have a link to feeds and speeds you used when cutting on the cnc?

[@muhammadyusri6955]

Have you ever tried the greenwood technique?

[@pashabulker12]

Do you have the cad files for this project on your website?

[@MCsCreations]

Pretty fantastic work, Alexandre! 😃 Really amazing looking chair!!! What are you going to use as finish? Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@BeTooKids]

Yay!!! victory this time 😊

[@bikermatz]

Great! Same word in Norwegian and English...
