"Relatively small shop" not that I am complaining but I work out of an 8 by 8 shed that only stores my tools and lumber, I actually do all the work outside with a single outlet. I also happen to love your videos.
I'm in a 12' × 24' and it sucks!!!! And my beautiful wife tries to help me, BECAUSE IT'S ALL 4 HER!!! All she says is SWEETHEART YOU NEED A BIGGER SHOP!! GOD I LOVE HER❤😂
I’ve found from working under similar circumstances, that it makes me a better woodworker, more than better tools do. It forces you to be innovative and find creative solutions for issues only a super small shop has. Those skills carry through to make you better when your shop and tools do finally match your skill set. (I could touch two walls at once in my first shop… I’m 5’ 6”)
Right there with you have a 7×8 shoop and a driveway. Only thing that stops me is the Florida weather. Just glad I have something where I can make a thing.
I come from germany and love to watch your videos in english. But since you said to try it out - I listend to part of it in german. It is quite amusing to hear your voice in german, haha. Nice for people who can't understand english... But I will keep it in english. Keep it up!
The AI is really good! I tried the German out as well and it even gave you a bit of an American accent! (I wonder if that’s a natural consequence of the sampling that the software uses). But it’s quite good, but I’ll still stick with English as well.
would say the same, the small parts I tried the German translation, it sounds good, a bit choppy but definitly good enough to get everything you say. But as the others, I will still prefere the english version
I really love the product placement that Foureyes, blacktail, and Jon the big guy. It is so nice to see you guys supporting each other. I actually bought a few things from Jon Maleki's recent video.
Around <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1818">30:18</a> to probably <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1945">32:25</a> I didn’t understand a thing you said but I had a hearty laugh hearing all the various languages you can now speak in. That’s some crazy cool stuff
I’m from Georgia but recently visited family friends in Bend, Oregon. Was so thrilled to hear our friend being successful working at Neighbor Impact with their food bank in the Bend area. Could be super symbolic. “When you have more than you need, build a longer table, not higher fence.” Happy to provide you with the connection if you believe it to be a good home for this. Love your stuff, Cam.
I love this suggestion for your table's home. I second this idea. Love the work... more gifting projects like this please. Here's a "throw your hat over the wall" idea... coordinate with builders across the world so that a meaningful build: table, sign, something I can't think of is built and donated. First thought was a long table like this at every state capitol. Then I thought, why limit to state capitols. I propose every country. And like the Voyager has the golden record with clues to humanity, you can include a placard dedicating the gift to sharing, friendship, or whatever message inspires you.
I chuckled when you talked about the Fir being the 2nd hardest wood "think about it" Your work is always great and the commentary and humor makes it so much more enjoyable to watch. Awesome job and thank you!
Softwoods like pine are horrible to work with for fine work, your tools need to be sharper and it's more prone to tearout and cutting / chiselling endgrain can be a nightmare.
@@rafezetter8003 - could not agree with you more on fir. Possibly pine. Built five solid closets using both materials. The tear out can only be prevented by using chisels to prep the wood for the cuts (I used 2x3.5 beams to get a solid structure) . If you 'break' the top structure of the wood meaby 1/7 of an inch, you can get away with a nice cut.
It's the difference in hardness between the early wood and late wood that is the issue. The early wood is like Styrofoam, and the late wood is like iron. When the chisel encounters the late wood, instead of cutting through it, the early wood behind it just crushes. Makes precise chiseling a nightmare. I find soaking the end-grain in denatured alcohol makes the process better, but still pretty miserable. The first time I ever tried chiselling a mortise in anything was when I built my Roubo workbench from Douglas Fir. I had a brand new set of Narex chisels, finely sharped to the internet recommended 25°, proceeded to place the edge onto quarter sawn grain- gave it one whack with the mallet, and immediately dented the perfect grain imprint into the edge of my chisel. that late wood is hard. Hardwoods have a more "homogeneous" hardness throughout. Walnut cuts like butter in comparison.
I'm a joiner and whilst I do love it, I dont really wanna watch it on YT when I'm chilling out. But you guys make great videos. The fact I'll sit thru 45mins of someone doing what I do everyday, but still be entertained... That's testament to really well made videos! Good shit guys! Love you work
Appalachian State university would love to display your piece. With all the destruction from the storms the community needs a hint of beauty reappearing in the area.
Oh how times have changed. Sixty or so years ago our favorite scout project was making benches. One of the dads had a shop we could work in. Our benches were basic but functional. We never had a problem finding places (schools, parks etc) to take them and we could get community projects signed off. Ours were nothing like your heirloom quality and it's so sad that places weren't fighting to get yours. . .
I love the way you talk about your Dad in this video. I just lost mine unexpectedly, so all things "Dad" related really get me, but your story of "I'll just figure it out" really hits home with my about my own father who would just "figure out" how to plow the road with a tractor or how to bring down a giant tree, or fix a water pump or whatever (and he was a computer guy by trade who just happened to by 15 acres in Montana without knowing what to do with it!). And being the father of 2 sons (16 and 22) that is one of the best lessons I think I can impart to them. And yes, they spend too much time in sleeping and playing video games, but in the past few years, due in no small part to your videos, I have started my own wood working journery to get myself of the couch. My younger son and I just finished turning boards from my dad's old hay wagon into an electric guitar. We watched RU-vid videos and just "figured it out"... I am very far from the wood worker you are Cam, but your videos keep my looking forward and trying things. And when you have the occassional screw up, it reminds me to not be too hard on myself for ALL of mine! Thanks for all you do and all you share!
Cam, your dad sounds like a lot like my dad, which means he's awesome! I lost my Pop last December, and he was the epitome of "I'll figure it out." And for the 39 years he was in my life, he "figured it out" more times than I can count. Thank you for paying homage to good dads. They're priceless.
Cam, I'm just realizing now, after watching your videos for years, that your random ramblings are the most entertaining part of what you're putting out. Don't change, man! ❤
Gotta love how he takes shots at himself and really doesn't take himself seriously. "The fan of the week" at the end of the videos is always entertaining as well.
I really love the relationship you have with Scott, even though he's not really on screen , I can feel his presence in the way you speak and behave, he definitely keeps you in check and does that in the most kind and fun way!
Hey Cam, I've been following you for god know how many years and this is my first time commenting here. This video just made me realise you're my all time favourite youtube channel, I think you're the most authentic and honest person I've ever seen on the internet. You always were, all those years and you still are. It's just amazing because lately I feel like its a quality rarely seen these days. There's a lot of honest creators here on youtube but no one is close to the pure honesty you give us. Please never change, unless you want to ;). Thank you for all those years of inspiration in my own projects, lunch times and falling asleep to you yapping around. Lots of love, keep up the amazing videos! Thank you for everything!🖤 (forgive english)
My wife and I spent our first anniversary up in Rockport, ME and on the return trip through the back roads of Maine we happened upon Shelter Institute. I'm an architect by trade and something about their sign was appealing and so we detoured in. I was very early in my woodworking journey (still am, really), but was overwhelmed by the selection of tools and products. Their staff was awesome and they still hold a special place for me, as does the saw I bought that day: my first Japanese hand saw - a Silky Pocketboy 170. Always cool to see them get shoutouts.
I love that u admit to not knowing everything all the time, and explain the how and why u chose to do things the way u did. It shows that there's not always a precise and perfect way to do things. I love ur work man keep it up. Inspirational AF.
I am a fluent Russian and English speaker based in the USA. I write in both languages for a living, with English being my primary language. The translation is excellent, much better than I was expecting. The speech itself sounds a bit like a voiceover, which is also expected. On a scale from 1 to 10, Russian is 8+, which is quite amazing, considering how complex Russian is. Thank you for the great content and a sense of humor and irony; this is the most endearing part of your videos.
It is surprisingly good. Russian is my native language so I can notice all the weird bits, but it doesn't feel too bad listening to AI generated voice.
Main problem in russian translation - stress in some words. About 87% translation is perfect. But when talking about prices - here problems. 2k dollars is insane for translation)))
As someone who works at a homeless shelter, I know a lot of shelters have outdoor spaces that would love something like this. Mine has a daycare, and we’d love a nice table like this to let the kids eat lunch at. You may ask around.
Enjoying where this channel has been heading the last year or so. A greater variety of projects and skill on display. Rebuilding my own table at the moment and is constantly reminded that everything is always harder then it looks on youtube.
I don't care how long it takes you to bring out a video. Just sitting there watching you yapper over a long video where you create something beautiful out of wood (NOT DENIM) is so satisfying and relaxing.
Hey Cam, I speak Hindi and I've listened for a few mins on Hindi audio and I must say I'm pretty impressed. The accent is spot on and sounds super casual. Definitely want more people to start enjoying your content!
Greetings from Georgia from a Russian, thank you for including my language in the list for translations at this difficult time for the whole world. I've always liked doing something with my own hands, so it's a pure pleasure to watch you do such high-quality large-scale and unusual things. The Russian translation is really good, there are small oddities, but 95% of everything is clear and very quickly forget that it is just an auto translation. Thank you and good luck. Всем мира и добра
Holy fucking shit, Russian just sounds amazing. My English is very good and I'm not gonna use it. But I think it's even better than Yandex video translation
Great content as allways . Man as a 70 year old woodworker in England it is impossible to get walnut of your quality even your offcuts would keep me working for the rest of my days wish i lived closer .
Best Sin City reference ever! I cannot, for the life of me, fathom why anyone would turn down a free park bench like this, it's simply wonderful, looks solid and durable but still really nice to look at. Once again you got bonus kudos points for showing the major cock-up and highlighting the fix. I really appreciate the humility and humour you have with both your mistakes and your triumphs. It's also good to see you branching out more and more from the epoxy builds, I have nothing against them but it's great to see more traditional styles too.
Brazilian fan here. I genuinely was surprised with how close to your voice tone the ai voice got. It added a country accent from Minas gerais and são Paulo (southwest region of Brazil) that matched perfectly. Greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷
Sotaque paulista muito forte kkkk (I'm from the far south of Brazil and there was definitely a regional accent, but that makes it sound better, I think! I speak a little Russian too, and while the voice doesn't sound as much like you, the Russian itself sounds pretty good!
I don't think you need to worry about the Hindi track, it sounds very good and natural like we speak in India day to day. I was very surprised about the quality though, it even got all the technical and difficult translations correct.
Jove the Johny Sinns woodworking videos! But this audio thing just blew my mind. I speak Russian and it's quite impressive how it's almost your voice and it's of a really good quality.
I worked for a log home builder in the mid-2000s. On all the log homes we built there were large beams in the ceilings and metal gusset plates. I drilled a bunch of the holes for the plates to be joined and almost never drilled straight through. What you did with the drill press would have been a great way to give us a quicker, better fit for the lag bolts uses. I love these videos!
“Saw!” Love it! Table looks amazing, no surprises, and your monologuing, I’m sure I speak for everyone when I say I could listen to it all day. Combined with impressive timer work, easily one of my favourite subscriptions on YT. Thanks for the video!👍 Have you considered donating it to a local hospital? If it has an outside space, I’m sure patients and relatives would be able to put it to good use?
I really love the product placement that Foureyes, blacktail, and Jon the big guy. It is so nice to see you guys supporting each other. I actually bought a few things from Jon Maleki's recent video.
There are Moose lodges in Portland. Give it to them, if they are anything like their east coast lodges I’m sure they sit out back during the nice weather enjoy themselves. That table would get a lot of use.
Pls don’t stress yourself. Good work need time. In our time we don’t have time but it’s so good things to make like in old days. That helps your mental health
Your Russian AI voice and translation are very good) I used to watch you also translating your voice with the help of our local Russian AI, but now it has become much better. Keep going! Thank you for the content!
Вау, дружище, ты начал делать то, что могут делать только настоящие Столяра!😊 Уже хорошо! Так держать! Удачи тебе! Кстати, русский перевод вполне 👌 вполне сносный!
I can't believe the parks didn't want that piece of art, it would add to any decor, I would gladly have that in my yard. Been far too long without content.
Yeah, that really shocked me. I can't imagine offering a table like this for free and being turned down, or just straight ignored. Hopefully he finds a suitable place for it where it can be appreciated.
I have been in and around the Entertainment industry my entire life...and if it came down to it and it was my life or put something together with a hammer and nail...I'd be dunzo. I know absolutely zero when it comes to woodworking, making things with my hands, etc. If I have to put up a shelf, I call a friend. But sweet hot damn it if I'm not enthralled every time you roll out a video. You make this stuff fascinating and so fun to watch. Some of my favorite content on RU-vid. It is QUITE noticeable in my feed when it's been a few weeks since you've posted. Keep up the great work, man.
Hello. French viewer here. The French audio is good. It's a Quebec accent which could sound particular for some. Love the details on this table❤ I'm jealous of all your tools 😮
The accent isn't always a Quebec accent too. Sometimes it switches to a french accent. Some other times to an primarly english speaker speaking in french sort of like people from ontario.
Hola Cam, vengo siguiendo tu canal hace tiempo ya, pero ahora con el doble al Español he podido disfrutar muchos más tus vídeos y tomas tus consejos con más precisión. La traducción es buena.Gracias y saludos desde Cuba🇨🇺
Very nice table and good job learning new things. Two things I would do differently: with the chainsaw, cut a little bit from underside first for no tearout. And with the pegs, offset the hole in the tenon just slightly and it will pull the join even tighter together.
I'm watching from Russia. The translation is pretty good. Sometimes it sounds a bit strange, but on the whole the meaning of everything said is clear. Thanks for the good content!
@@BlacktailStudioI concur, RU track is good just like the ES and DE tracks, can't speak regarding the others. Might be interesting to learn the statistics in a year or so - how many people watch your videos in foreign languages. I suppose yt interface can provide those. And generally I think it would be fun for your audience to know the breakdown of your viewership across various countries, and any other statistics that yt might provide.
I grew up in Germany and it's my first language, but I have been in the US for 12 years so I'm fluent in both. Your German audio translation is really spot on actually. I only listened for a minute because I left Germany for a reason, but it sounds authentic!
Bonjour de Belgique Cam, depuis que je regarde tes vidéos, je l'ai toujours mis en français, c'est un accent un peu Canadien, mais très agréable à entendre. J'ai lu un commentaire qui explique aimer ta franchise, ton humour, ton humilité et je le rejoins entièrement. J'attends toujours tes vidéos avec impatience, merci beaucoup pour ton contenu toujours super intéressant et super agréablement filmé par ton acolyte qui t'est devenu indispensable. Merci d'être là et longue vie à ta chaine 🙂.
If you were in Canada, I would suggest donating it to Jasper Alberta. Since the fires this summer nearly wiped out the entire town, and part of the national park. Would be awesome to see a big, natural wood, hand made, picnic table in the Jasper National Park.
That beautiful and sturdy table would look perfect at Timberline Lodge, which has historical artisan woodworking, metal crafting elements, and traditional construction details throughout. Thousands of visitors could use it each year, and it fits the immense scale of the lodge. Great project and video!
When you talked about your dad saying he'd just 'figure it out' it reminded me of my little brother. My father started a mechanical contracting business when we were boys; schools, hospitals, apartment buildings...stuff like that. Eventually, he retired and I took over, later my little brother also joined me in the office. One day some of the guys called from a job site and told my brother about a problem they were having that they couldn't figure out. My brother turned to me and asked me who we could call for an answer and I had to break it to him. "Us. We are who gets called. There is no one else. We will have to just figure it out." He looked at me slightly alarmed as he realized that all the decisions he had been requesting from the office for the past while had been made by me. "Every time? We have to solve every problem?" I just nodded. Sometimes you just have to figure it out. It becomes a mindset. Not that you know everything, just that you do not automatically look for someone else when a problem arises, before at least taking a shot yourself. As for a tool with a high WAR rating, it is actually a metal working tool but a metal brake is virtually irreplaceable when trying to make accurate or crisp bends in metal.
My journey started last Saturday where I had to build some steps off the front porch to the yard of the house my wife and I just bought. The man at Lowes convinced me to save money and to not buy the pre-cut stringers. It took me pretty much all afternoon to figure out, but I wound up building beautiful stairs and I'm so proud of it. Perseverance is all it takes (oh and some power tools)
My Dad had a physical disability that made home improvement projects even more challenging than otherwise they would have been. He would always say that you will figure out how to do what you "NEED" to get done. It's about how much you want it.
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1020">17:00</a> - Just FYI Ebony is not even close to being the hardest wood in the world - not even in the top 10.
@@Beardwhip it’s actually quite a bit harder then both with a janka hardness rating of 3220 and hickory and white oak are 1820 and 1360. It’s hardness is why it’s used as a cover for end grains on things like rifle stocks.
i can honestly say I'm really glad you made the legs too tall on purpose just so you could share that satisfying clip of breaking out the kerf cuts :) Not everyone can think that far ahead on a project and line things up in such a wonderful way.
Best "Sin City" reference ever... made even better by the final shot. As an aside, Shelter Institute is just over an hour away from where I live. Always neat to hear about them getting involved with projects like these!
I love those little bits of Oregon history. I cant even begin to tell you what a joy it has been making this wonderful state my home. Really enjoy your work, its fantastic to see the native trees come alive as functional pieces. Cheers from Eugene!
that AI translation thing is INSANE! Obviously it's more natural in english but honestly this is one of the best AI voice translation i've heard so far! Sounds near perfect in german, just from grammar and pronounciation it's damn close to 100% perfect, mindblowing!
My first thought for where to send this project was maybe a museum. That type of company is probably used to having things donated to them, so they might have a process for accepting contributions. Only thing with a place like that is that it may not end up outside like you want. Translating videos is an excellent use for AI in my opinion. There are so many controversial uses out there that it is nice to see someone using it in a productive and actually beneficial way, good on ya! I love the little diagram in the corner showing which part we are working on, it really helps me to follow along with the project and keep the big picture in mind as you show the close up details. Definitely an excellent inclusion which I'd love to see in future videos :)
Ok I hadn't realized that you not only have 8 different language audio tracks in your videos, but (from what I can tell) YOU'RE the one dubbing them all?? Man, if you didn't have my respect already. Well done sir.
I listened to the audio track in German and as a native German speaker I have to say it's not bad. The over-all rhythm of the language is off but the words used are mostly correct. I'm thoroughly impressed by this AI *and* your table 🙂
What's up Cam? I've been following your videos for a while now, even before the translation software. It really was an excellent upgrade. Even though Portuguese from Portugal sometimes appears instead of Brazilian Portuguese. Thanks for the support to understand and learn more from your videos. A big hug.
My father fancied himself as a inventor true fact when I Googled him turns out he was an inventor when he was 16 years old he invented a machine to make mops cool right He never taught me anything and he was a guy that could figure it out carpentry, electric, plumbing, etc., etc so when I hear you talk about your dad I’m jealous When ever he had a project I was sent home to watch tv I lack confidence and that feeling has followed me everywhere So thank you. Your father did a very good job
Native French speaker here, the audio track is pretty impressive. The intonation and some vocabulary use can be a bit awkward but overall very much understandable, that's a very nice thing to have!
I like how modest you are about your abilities and skill level, but you have demonstrated a level of expertise of craftsmanship on your channel. Just because you haven't built a church, doesn't mean you couldn't. I bet you could.
I took a couple of timber framing courses at the North House Folk School. They had cool chainsaw-based mortisers that made making mortises easy. Those classes were a lot of fun.
I was a timber framer here in Germany and most machines we used were by Mafell but we would not have bought a jigsaw by that company! But the mortiser is fantastic, the giant circular saw also. There is also a machine with a big cutter head that we used to cut all the birds mouths at once. Clearly, most ppl don't need those tools! They are production machines.
Hey, Cam. Interesting to see that your accent is from Sao Paulo, Brazil when converted to the Portuguese audio track! So funny! My wife is now incredibly happy that she can understand your videos without me having to translate everything. Big fan from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil!!!
Hey Cam, I work with steel and my fave tool with a high WAR rating is my mag base drill for sure. Similar reasoning to moving the tool to the big workpiece.. Thanks for your videos!
Love this video. Always wanted to build a timber frame house, but for health reasons need to live in a metropolitan area with major hospitals and timber frame homes do not fit. But a table I could have. Another builder of a small timber frame used a metal mirror with a hole drilled in the center and watched the reflection to drill his holes.
I recently started woodworking school and if you want to come across as a real woodworker you would do that chamfer with the chisel in a slicing motion where you hold the chisel at an angle and use your thumb to push it sideways instead if just jabbing it forward. That technique gives you a lot more control and minimizes the risk of going too deep.
Cam, you probably know already but you can get mortising bits for your drill press. They come with a clamp that attaches above the chuck so they stay vertical. They work well.
