She Asked Me to Build This, I ALMOST Said NO 

As they are tirelessly and less accurately cutting all their pieces by hand, they are jealous that they can't afford such an amazing machine!

They also have never set up a cnc to know how not simple it is.

Jealous trolls is all. When you can afford them, better tools mean you can make money easier and quicker.

I'm convinced they also drive automobiles driven by steam. 😂👍

If you don’t fashion your woodworking projects with your bare teeth, you’re not a real beaver, uh, I mean woodworker.

I think the cutout design should have just been limited to the exposed area. No need to change the overall shape, and the reason it looks bad is that the visible portion is a clearly incomplete pattern.

You should have said no

❤ this bed turned out beautiful and the look on your daughters face. Priceless.

That is so sweet. That takes my lunch box and camping bag notes to a whole other level. They will appreciate those for years to come.

Ha "override her" I don't think that's possible by the looks of her.

I don't get why some people crap all over others when they find an effective way to do a better job. They whole "work smarter, not harder" is a valid methodology. Otherwise we'd still be a thousand years behind where we are today. Also saying "you aren't a real woodworker if you are/aren't..... " is just mindless gatekeeping and extremely petty and importantly, wrong.

"you were adopted"

@@icultivatebooks I hadn't considered that. Sneaky!

Agree. A little taller would be great

My thoughts exactly!

Agreed. I think he would have seen that in hindsight, but as he said, he wasn't able to do iterations. If a customer orders one, i bet that would be a consideration

@@boonjabby Well, since it's a knock down, he can at his leisure partially knock it down and add a base extension to raise that headboard into its full view.

@@Don.Challenger yeah valid point

Her many boyfriends will testify to its structural integrity.

@UCINLOfGtLqep_O5yyZfPbkg 🤣🤣🤣

An even better story if her dad involved her in making it

This is Nick Offerman's (aka Ron Swanson) approach to woodworking. He explained it on his episode of Hot Ones.

for sure those pieces will probably be passed down for generations! and with how well they're built they'll last the test of time for sure!

Pleeeease...that kid is probably a spoiled self entitled brat. She'll just go gold digging for a rich hubby later on.

Perhaps he could make an advert for fitted sheets ! And then get some free !!! Lots of lovely RU-vid money and free fitted sheets !!!

@@travisash8180 All products that are given from companies and do a good job needs to be acknowledged and can help other people starting up and it pays him a living as a sponsor and the internet just has a lot of wingers as well

Either new, selfish af, or just entitled in general. I mean... We all get it. Ads are irritating. but everyone deserves to be paid/the opportunity to earn. Besides.... Old school TV was waaaaay worse lol

It was halfway worth it just to see that lil adorable dog try to get up there.

same thoughts here

That's what I thought too and that the mattress will slide all over the place because of the flat surface.

The nice thing about making it yourself is you can make any edits you want later on

Yeah without modern tech, we'd still be using a wooden hammer and a froe to make shingles haha

Here's some hypocritical advice, don't offer advice unless it's requested 🤷

@@ThomasSawyers The first unsolicited advice was interesting and helpful for other viewers, and inoffensive if Jonny was already aware of it (and he says IN this video that comments can be helpful). Your unsolicited advice is not just unnecessary but unnecessarily mean, and offers nothing to anyone.

Neat! I might have thought to do the second set of lines but wouldn't have known that the resultant square was useful for anything other than telling me my dowel or measurements were off.

​@@ThomasSawyers Ew, you're one of the bandwagoners, huh? Someone who doesn't think for themselves and jumps on whatever bandwagon they think others are riding. He said he hated troll comments. He also said the good comments are helpful. I've seen other dummies hating actually helpful comments simply because they think any kind of advice is trash advice. Your comment is one of the absolutely weirdest instances of someone not being able to "read a room" I've seen today.

@@ElysetheEevee your comment is one of the best examples of some dumb loser thinking their opinion ACTUALLY matters, people wouldn't give a damn in two weeks if you disappeared from their lives💀

He don't know nothing about hospital corners.

Because that's what you want to teach your daughters equates to love....

That's not the only thing that put him on cloud nine if you know what I mean. You think she gets to live in a freaking many mansion Scott free? Asking for whatever she wants, She's got to pay the landlord 💦, dad's going to be like don't worry honey I have knee pads. 😉.

Ooops! Forgot to comment "OMG!" for making it to the end! LoL!

JONNY, YOU PUT YOUR FOOT IN THIS, MANN!! FREAKIN AWESOME!! LOVE IT!!!

Im the youngest of 5 i dont have anything my grandfather made. My older sisters have it. One has a bunch of stuff I made For my mom and im ok with that. I made somthing out of walnut for my brother, but my sister in law put it outside in the winder in a leaky cover garage. Insted she liked pair 1 imports crap I'll never forget that that pice of finiture was made special for her to place z microwave on when microwaves wave first came out for the genral public. Were talking walnut. And it made its way to the trash.

Also you still have to build it, refine it, etc and that’s no joke Same as those sayin digital photography is not photography

I agree. In the seventies they build house with nails and hammers know they use nail guns technology help improve the skills of the craftsman or craft woman’s

Agreed. It's a tool, no different than a saw or a chisel, it's just very powerful and efficient... as long as the user using it has the skill and knowledge to do so correctly.

Like back in the day they didn’t have power drills and now every woodworker uses em and some just have hand drills for nostalgic reasons

Exactly! Also often times people don't think about the fact that in this day and age where productivity is on everyone lips (which is not a concept that I like as far as craftsmanship goes but that's another topic) those modern tools are the only way woodworkers can keep up to the industry standards that are always changing, effectively making it possible for them to earn an actual decent living off of their work. I remember coming across an old newspaper article of a purist calling out "lazy craftspeople" adopting the newly invented domestic power tools holding a similar kind of point of view: if you're not a traditionalist, you're not a "real" craftsperson. Boy that didn't age well now that litterally everyone has at least one electrical power tool in their house and/or workshop 😅. Truth be told, tradition is very cool and 100% handwork is absolutely fascinating, but when the living wage is on the line, that idea is simply just not cutting it. And there's no shame to that. Living a successful craftsperson's life in a hyper-industrialized society is already a feat in itself, when you think about it. There will always be naysayers that don't care for new technology and trash those who embrace them, but the reality is that those people are not the ones who have to put bread on the table with hand tools.

It is very special isn't it?

Build one for me. Ill call you Daddy. 😁

My dad made beautiful furniture for his and my mom's home, and for the occasional project for a paying friend. It wasn't his job, just his passion. I never asked him, because he was so busy with so many demands. If he had ever offered, I would have jumped on it, but I would never have wanted to impose. And now he is gone, and I wish so much I had something that he had made in our own home. Maybe you could offer?

Agreed 100%! If "true wood workers" weren't allowed to embrace technological advancements you'd all have to be working with stone hammers and chisels!
