Thanks for showing the mistakes Brad, and how to fix them. You took the time to show the errors, and demonstrated the steps to overcome them with viable solutions that all of us can follow, which shows that you're a great instructor with masterful craftsmanship. I look forward to many more of your builds! :)

@Road.to.recovery 5 лет назад

Love your work. I'm in the process of building up my workshop and I will use some if not all of your techniques. You make it look so easy haha look forward to more videos. Love and peace from great Britain 😁

Awesome job on the stool and video! 👍 Nicely done Brad! 👊

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

Thanks, Fred. It was a fun change.

@John_Malecki 6 лет назад

Really dig the tips on how to do the dowels for the stretchers. Great video bro!

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

Thanks, brother!

@oojagapivy 6 лет назад

Cool build Brad, I like the variety of joinery used and the design being 2 stools that can work as one lends more flexibility than a usual step stool. Thanks for showing the mistakes and problem solving too. Some people, like my students, would go "crap, start again". I work every year to get each new class to realise "all is not lost, how can we fix/modify our job"

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

Love that mentality. Sometimes, you start over but mostly it can be saved.

@kennethturner7942 3 года назад

@WayWoodworking 6 лет назад

Nice work. Thanks for showing your mistakes. It helps woodworkers like me understand that it's just part of the process! I would get too frustrated with my self in the past.

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

Oh yeah, it's gonna happen no matter what. Just learn to fix them when they do happen :)

@jus6681 6 лет назад

Totally agree. Also make it more relatable/accessible. Not some polished off HGTV sh...stuff. ;-)

@LutherBuilds 6 лет назад

Dude, I'm sold on this. I'm going to build this for my kids. They are constantly needing a snack or drink and can't reach the bowls or cups. Honestly what sold me was the demo at the end.

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

Thanks, Josh. It’s been a hi and now they fight over it 😀

@jasonbailey9139 6 лет назад

Nice job and congrats on landing the sponsorship! I just discovered the MFP podcast a week or two ago. I'm about 14 episodes in and wanted to congratulate you on moving to full-time. I'm only 1/2 a year late. :)

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

Thanks, Jason! And better late than never :)

@matt_williams1015 6 лет назад

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

😂😂😂 thanks, Sam!

@stevegronsky8904 6 лет назад

Nice job Brad, including "fixing" your error.

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

Thanks, Steve. I think it' important to show what happens when things go wrong too!

@balancebringer7888 2 года назад

I've downloaded these plans and a couple others and I love the simple designs but I have to ask how tall are you? The furniture came out very nice but it seemed kinda low "I added 6inch feet to the outdoor sofa" and I started making adjustments to the builds to make the seating taller. This meant more wood than expected but store isn't that far away but you've got me curious now lol. Keep up the good work I plan on downloading a lot more as I go and thanks.

Great idea. I appreciate showing your mistakes. For a while I thought I was the only one that made them. Now you've gotten your 1 mistake taken care of for the year so you're good to go now.

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

Good for that hour at least 😀. Good to meet you this weekend!

@Thom4123 6 лет назад

Awesome video and sweet build. I like how you show if you make a mistake from rushing how you can still recover from it lmao.

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

Yeah, Thom, I make a lot of them so figure others do too 😀

@khalidanas9623 6 лет назад

good work

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

Thanks!

@Tarheelbf 6 лет назад

I love this build. What drill/countersink bit are you using to attach the bottom stretchers?

@DavidEricPrates 6 лет назад

Very sleek!

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

Thank oyu!

@samuelhaworth2173 6 лет назад

Cool project! I will have some left over poplar from some trim work I'm doing, I think I will try it and stain it dark walnut.

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

That would look great!

@samuelhaworth2173 6 лет назад

Fix This Build That l made a full sized football out of poplar a couple of years ago, my brother in law stained it with dark walnut, looked great.

@anthonycraig274 3 года назад

This is very nice and so simple. Pity I cant make one. I just don’t have the equipment

@winner1604 2 года назад

Great job. Love your videos. How do i get the plan with dimensions. Kevin

@uterghj Год назад

great work ! I just wondered if the plans are also in metric for us who are not familiar with imperial units :) thanks :)

@luiscervantes8639 6 лет назад

Brad you have amazing singing skills 😂

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

oh boy....there will be no video on that :)

@kwiknikk 5 лет назад

The dowels on the cross members run into the other dowels on the small stool?

@GBaby-lq3hi 6 лет назад

coooool

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

thanks!

@GunflintDesigns 6 лет назад

That's a great idea to have a more modular stool instead of the traditional one trick ponies out there like the one I made.

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

Thanks, Mark! Was going for something unique.

@pedge001 6 лет назад

What forcener bit set do you use for hand drill? I’ve only seen them with the instructions to use with a drill press.

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

I used Brad point bits for the doweling jig. On the drill press I used a small 3/8 Forstner. I think they were from woodcraft

@robwhoa 4 года назад

Brad - great video, I just finished gluing up the sides and sanding. The pocket hole screws for the aprons sadly split the legs : ( any tips on how to avoid this? I used the fine thread, 1,1/4” kreg screws. I guess now it’s time to learn how to repair a split cherry leg!

@Fixthisbuildthat 4 года назад

Dang! I'm assuming the grain line was running exatly the line the screw came in. Try to run them acroos grain lines vs with them

@robwhoa 4 года назад

Fix This Build That many thanks for the reply! To fix the leg I used some dental floss to bring glue through the crack (wedged open), resanded like new. In the absence of a drill press, I used the self Centering dowel jig, clamped on top of the target, and used a Brad point bit to find the mark.. worked out great! Thanks again.

@jus6681 6 лет назад

Great project Brad but I'm wondering when you'll be incorporating your own karaoke versions of popular 90's ballads into your videos? It just might be the one thing that helps your channel take off.

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

Somewhere in my archive I’ve done that already. I’m not pointing you to it though 😀

@kemixn 6 лет назад

Hi Brad, which counter bit did you use in the video? Thanks

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

Mohamed, it's this one. No-mar Countersink Bit - amzn.to/2H8NKbe

@kemixn 6 лет назад

Fix This Build That thanks Brad!

@zachhudlin6362 6 лет назад

What countersink are you using?

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

Zach, it's this one. No-mar Countersink Bit - amzn.to/2H8NKbe

@b.j.castaldo926 6 лет назад

I have a question, and I’ve seen this before in other videos you make, why do you run your tops on the table saw and do a bevel edge on them instead of using a chamfer bit in a router? The router just seems easier but I’m sure you have your reasons!

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

I like the softer angle. This is 30 degrees and a router bit is typically 45. Also the router but bearing marks up the surface that you then have to sand out

@wahabhamrit4214 3 года назад

bonsoir est ce qu on peut avoir les dimenssions merci

@zacklee921 6 лет назад

What connector pieces do you use for your rigid sander and rigid miter saw? I can’t find a way to connect my shop vac to either tool.

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

I use this one between the back of the sander and the port I have on my hose. amzn.to/2GJz7Kr . But you situation may be different depending on your hose connection.

@zacklee921 6 лет назад

Fix This Build That I just have a regular ole rigid shop vac, So is that orange hose your have a specific 4 inch hose from rigid?

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

It’s 2-1/2” and it’s called the pro 4x hose or something like that. The fittings it came with worked out of the box. And yes, it’s RIDGID

@reforzar 6 лет назад

How many coats of finish? I always lose track.

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

Exactly...thus 4....or 5 :)

@markushensel7712 6 лет назад

Very cool idea ans design. But there is one thing Ireally dont understand: How was ist possiblie to drill the dowel holes in the angled joints at 90° ? The whole thing would be out of alignment...

@Fixthisbuildthat 6 лет назад

the dowel joints align with the face of the joint. so as long as the joint is flush then it works great

@matthewvera9702 6 лет назад

This was my initial thought too, but since both pieces should be cut with corresponding angles, the dowel holes end up being drilled at the same angle (but not parallel to the ground)

@markushensel7712 6 лет назад

After I explained the problem to another person, I realized there was no problem : )
