This Was Humbling, But Well WORTH It

My grandfather was into woodworking. He made a stool out of walnut and turned the wooden pieces. Then he use this technique and cord to make the top. I’m 61 years old. I remember it from my childhood. It is still solid.

[@skipjames8437]

Pretty cool. I guess I should probably make something for my cat.

[@mattmayes599]

I think it turned out great 👍🏻 I'm not surprised by the cats reaction. "You built me scratching furniture" 😸

[@jhtrice]

Hey Chris, good to see you in "build mode" I've always enjoyed your build videos.

[@garymiller5937]

It looks like a pain to make, but that bench is so, so cool Chris! I mean just awesome! You did a great job, perfect or not. If you don't point it out I don't think anyone will notice. And it's just incredible what you are doing for St. Jude's Hospital! You are truly being a good servant. God bless you, my friend! 😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤

[@fdort3971]

@AGlimpseInside thanks for the lesson. You have far more patience than me my friend! I've worked with various strings over the years. I will point out that as you wrap with firm pressure...it's going to put pressure on the wood itself. Too much will make a weak structure snap...I've had it happen.

Chris brother, "Tight blonde" I think your mind wondered off there for a min! lol j/k j/k.. That was funny as hell though!! Titebond, oh yeah of course, I'm still laughing over that! Anyhow...... That bench seat is awesome!!! I'm gonna have to try making one, at some point!! Anyhow, well done brother!!! Nice work.. until next time, take it easy!!

[@mentalneil]

I used to do square stools with this effect, only I never used the nails, I was taught to fully wrap cord above and below, and then to tie off the two ends

[@RYwoodview]

I think you did a great job, Chris. Just hope you can find a way to use it inside now!

[@tom.coomes]

They came out amazing! I know that would have taken a lot of patience. I made a small stool by weaving small rope back when I was a kid at summer camp. I never wanted to do that again 😂.

[@mikedurkee7296]

Cool project. Not sure if I would have the patients you did... I like the honesty about the learning process.

[@truckguy6666]

Yeah I feel like it would finally "click" and you'd get really good at it after about the 3rd project. At which point I've moved on mentally :) Whats better than seeing a project thru? a dozen or so unfinished ones sitting in the back of the shop.

[@jodilea144]

That is so cool! I’ve got a little stool frame sitting in my shop that I saved to eventually do something with. This might just be the perfect seat for it! Hopefully I can find a bit of extra time between all my other projects! I always enjoy your videos, Chris - thanks!

[@jamesbrunk9817]

Nice bench! Looks too tedious for me to undertake. Glad to see a project video.

[@lindsayatlmrtransport8118]

Tidy Chris, well made as usual. Another 'string' to your bow

[@MCsCreations]

Stunning work, Chris! Really well done!!! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@edpotts4316]

Great build Chris! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family

[@FearsomeWarrior]

Chris Tribe’s last KZbin videos before retirement are danish cord chair tutorials. Really fun project.

[@jimrosson6702]

So very cool Chris you have me interested in this I have made stuff from para cord for years now dog leashes. Dog collars, Belts , wallet chains,key chains, so I know how much time it takes to make stuff out of it never tried a bench may have to look into this. Thanks for sharing. Also it an amazing thing you are doing to raise money for Saint Jude it’s a great cause🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️

[@mindyhall4638]

Chris-cool project. What were the two little hammers you used for this? Thanks!

[@celticcraps]

Really cool chris

[@ianpearse4480]

Nice one. Built for the job. Done.

[@LYTOMIZE_Woodshop]

What a project. I'm not sure that I have the patience to make one of those. Good for you, Sir!!! ❤

[@AGlimpseInside]

Thank you sir!! You should try it

[@bw162]

Is wood quilting next?

[@jimthesoundman8641]

2:40 Speaking as a former Boy Scout, a taut-line hitch is far better for this application than a truckers hitch.

[@davidkendrick3158]

Good morning! It’s been a minute since I made any, but this reminded me of making potholders as a kid for Christmas one year!😂😂. My fingers were sore just doing that - I bet you were tired after all that weaving and stretching! How would you flat pack one of those????? Hope everyone is well. Happy Thanksgiving! OPHS Class of ‘87!!

[@markduggan3451]

That looks amazing.

[@exotictones1054]

Ash is a hardwood.pretty cool table buddy but to much time for me.lol

[@tinydragonlabs]

I'm curious about the comment that you don't have a jointer or planer in the shop anymore. Is that on purpose? Was it your intent to replace them with the CNC?

[@stlwoodworking]

Just ordered a push stick Thank you.

[@AGlimpseInside]

Thank you Greg I appreciate it so much. I know they do too.

[@stlwoodworking]

@@AGlimpseInside absolutely. Stand by for an email lol

[@mcmathwoodworks]

Toasted ash and tight blonds... hmm 🤔 Lol this was a cool project Chris! Is there a way to put a protective finish on that paper cord?

[@johnfithian-franks8276]

HI, I would love to get two of these, but my problem is that I live in the UK and my the time you add in postage it would be costing you money to send them, if after that you still make something let me know and I will bey them!

[@raydriver7300]

Nice job, Chris. I made something similar, but smaller, many, many years ago and it’s taken me back. You can make things foolproof but, for me, can you make them idiot proof? 🌞

[@darryllozinski3086]

I always unplug and remove batteries from power tools. I have two young kids as well.

[@TwoSierraEcho]

Nice job! How much cord do you think was used? basic dimensions?

[@AGlimpseInside]

The role had 1700 feet it looks like there’s probably 1400 left. Maybe 300 feet worse.

[@AGlimpseInside]

Worth

[@shahbazkh2885]

Very nice ❤

[@wittworks]

fire your ash. Got it.

[@truckguy6666]

Careful with the drill bits though. Nobody likes an ash hole.

[@christian8s]

Tight blonde, took me out 💀
