We need more genuinely good hearted people like you on this planet. thank you

You're one of these RU-vidrs where a 3 hour duration doesn't appear daunting up front. You've got this mixture of unexpected jokes/twists, smart editing and a way to explain complex subjects in laymans terminology. In my mind I'm always subconsciously looking for distractions, but your video format has a way of keeping me focused better than any teacher ever could manage to.

I absolutely adore the way you've turned interactions with other woodworkers into a part of your editorial voice. You're funny, but it also shines a light on some incredibly wholesome and supportive people. It's really lovely to watch!

WOW!!! The Pathfinder table almost made me cry tears of elation!!! Absolutely the most BEAUTIFUL sewing table I have EVER seen in my Life! I am a long long time seamstress (started at 11 yr old, now 73) and I am drooling over your jaw-dropping creation. I wish I had a special someone that gave me a table like yours. It's stunning!!!! You have real creative talent Jasper. 💯💯💯

Jesper, you've gone from being inspired to being an inspiration. You deserve every accolade that you get. Keep up the great work, mate, and don't let anyone tell you that your videos don't matter. 👍🇩🇰🇦🇺🍺🍺

The way you gave the path finder table to your mother in law was absolutely heartwarming. You give me hope in my own creative process!

At first I thought I got suckered in to watching a dude building pallets, luckily I hung with it and being a woodworker I really appreciate getting an inside look at people who take it to a different level. Watching visionary craftsmen work expands thought and takes my work in whole new directions.

Ignore those people who slate your work and channel. They just feel threatened by you because you’re willing to try something new, when they’re stuck in the past and doing the same old crap. This is the first video of yours that I’ve seen, and I’m horrified at how many other RU-vidrs are willing to slate you at the drop of a hat. Keep doing what you’re doing, “most” of us enjoy it. 👍

I'm not a woodworker, I'm a blacksmith but I couldn't help but watch this entire video. It's nice to see someone who works the way I do. Maybe it's because we are Scandinavian. Anyways I'm happy to subscribe, keep up the good work jasper.👍

One of the most inspiring stories on youtube while still staying so down to earth and humble. Wonderful.

Glad you left the mistakes you made so others can learn from them. Plus how you was completely honest means tons. Thank you.

You make me feel so much better about myself! I get ideas and people think I'm nuts but I do things the way my little brain thinks. They turn out good and sometimes crazy good, and in the end it's the hysterical memories that make the projects so good!! You're my new favorite channel!

Nature man, viking man, living in an awesome peaceful environment, your work is appealing on so many levels!

I just want to say that your pallet table is absolutely awesome! It is truly, a one of a kind, piece of art! It looks great in your office and I hope it gives you decades of enjoyment! Very well done! 👍

I enjoyed your story and videos. I watched for 4 hours straight and didn’t realize it went so fast because I was mesmerized. I love the humor and gentle tone of your voice. I wish you wonderful adventures in your life. 🎉

Sir, this is one of the best 2 hours and 48 minutes I've ever spent on RU-vid. Thank you :)

i just came across this video randomly and man... i still can't find my words how awesome this is. thank you for being you and letting the rest of us experience all from here. cheers!

Couldn’t stop watching! The mark of a good craftsman is fixing things when it goes wrong. Brilliant

Jasper is a ROCKSTAR. Entertaining and he makes his own rules. Keep up the good work J-Rock. 😅😊

Your videos are extremely inspiring! The materials you use, as well as your methods and homemade jigs, make this type of craft seem more plausible and more accessible to people who have little experience. You Sir, are a genius. Keep doing things other guys tell you not to! You’re obviously doing something right. 👍

Jesper, I can’t express how much I enjoy your videos. They are more than just woodworking, they are stories with passion. Your videos have given me so many ideas and most importantly, they give me motivation! Thank you for sharing the real side of learning.

Jesper, I love your work! So simple yet so elegant. Plus the stories behind making each piece is an absolute inspiration to me. Thank you for sharing your work with the world!!!

Everything about this channel is just so wholesome, your projects are awesome, the fact that your family always want what you’ve built is really heartwarming, your cinematography, humour and editing are all first class. So I really enjoyed watching this video, it was by far the best thing I’ve watched this Christmas and the only thing I’ve paid attention to all the way through it. Keep it up Jesper, you are fantastic. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was it. The other one I watched. Redoing your office, the wood block river table, Sharing what you worked on in the beginning. Good stuff. Don't take yourself too seriously, don't hide your mistakes from folks and approach it all with enthusiasm and joy. Go Jesper Go. Steady

A handyman's work is never done!!! These projects are pure genius!!!

Finally! Wifey and I watched this over the course of a week during dinner. Some she had not seen before, others brought back fond memories of Jesper stuffing things up, and we played many games of _Spot the Fixit Fingers Shirt/Sticker/Cameo_ 😆 I am glad to see this experiment has worked well with many people enjoying reliving your greatest hits to date. Here's to many more - James & Zhaomin

As an American who lived a year in Denmark, this video makes me very envious of the life you have in the land of Tubby Gold!! I am going to send this video to my friend Thomas from Nørre Snede. I love to see the Danish people prospering... You are truly an outstanding society who live the truest expression of democracy and equality. I am proud to be connected to your country, and admire the entrepreneurial spirit of what you're doing. **Keep Going**.

Jesper, love how you started out and built your skill levels up as well as your tool collection. I really like how you reuse old timber and mill your own timber from logs rather than buying new. You’re showing the world to repurpose as well as how to think outside the square. Your videos rock! Just subscribed, well deserved!

The difference between a good wood worker and a bad woodworker is a good woodworker can hide his mistakes 🤠👍

Watching this very very long compilation with you just being a regular guy being yourself has earned my subscription 😁

Fell asleep watching RU-vid... woke up 15 minutes into this video ended up watching the rest of it... was genuinely impressed! held my breath, felt his sorrow on woodworking mistakes and was sad myself when he said one of them didn't sell only for him to give it away to his mother inlaw. Then you see him rush home only to see it had sold and hes back outside the inlaw's I verbally laughed and was really happy for him! I subscribed :) Anyone reading this should also.

It was fun watching your story unfold, Jesper. Kudos on your success!

You sir, should be the Danish entry for an Academy Award. Thank you for doing what you do, you're an inspiration, a humble and kind human, and you make me laugh every time. And man, you're videos are well made! Keep it up, you're changing lives.

This is the first time seeing Jesper’s channel and like his sense of humor, although it’s a bit tame for my taste, but that’s probably a good reason why I don’t have my own RU-vid channel. His entrepreneurial spirit is very inspirational and hope they find a talent to feed and grow to follow a similar path. Too many channels out there in the DIY universe without humor. There’s no reason we can’t laugh while we learn and nine out of 10 woodworkers agree that humor helps you retain knowledge.

I hope you get to 1 million subscribers, I came across your videos a few days ago and I have been hooked on watching all of them. I absolutely love woodworking. I grew up watching my dad and grandfather building stuff from scrap wood and always loved the thought of creating furniture or anything from wood. I started using tools to build wooden fences at 16 but I later ended up becoming an electrician in my mid 20's and now I do electrical and telecom work but for the last 3-4 years, on my free time I try to build all of my furniture out of scrap pallets that I get from work. I love it I've been saving for my track saw and other wood tools, and one day I wish I could finally get to your and other woodworker's level of expertise that I see on RU-vid. I am truly inspired by your story and it has sparked a fire in my soul that I could possibly make a wish and a dream become a reality and one day I could become such a woodworker like the rest of you in this community of woodworkers. I look forward to the ongoing inspiration that you deliver.

Hey Jesper. Really inspirational video! I'm not really a big commenter on RU-vid but I feel that this one deserves some love. I've been slowly getting in to wood working myself but just like you when you started, I have no real direction, limited knowledge, very littl starting cash or tools and bills to pay. It's not easy starting something like this while worrying if it is going to actually be semi-profitable or enough to cover the bills and not end end up being a waste of time that could have been spent elsewhere. Your video has given me a little spark to the start of my day so thank you for that! All the best on your future projects and your life journey. Looking forward to your next video!

You're a really down to earth guy, a real inspiration and an example to a lot of us. I really enjoyed watching your videos and thanks for being such a great inspirator to the DIY community!

Jokes over guys he locks his doors now. I checked 😢

Wow this is an incredible compilation of projects with a solid dash of humor sprinkled throughout! I don't normally comment on videos but this gentleman deserves more exposure.

This is my new favorite DIY on RU-vid, I love Jesper's sense of humor, it's even better with his accent. It didn't feel like 2 and a half hours, it went by way too quick.

I watched this in its entirety over the course of 2 days. I have to say, I honestly loved every second of it. This video has been very inspirational. I really appreciate how beautiful your handcrafted items are. Magnificent!! Yes, I liked and am now subscribed.

Jesper, Thank you. I have wanted to get into woodworking for years. I'm kind of in the same situation you were. I'm moving in this direction. But regardless of that, I love your videos, your humor, and your humility. Be well and be strong like a Viking.

Jesper, nothing stops you. I admire your tenacious free spirit!

Enjoying this video,, 🥰🌳Jesper,, thank you for making that amazing river 🏞🪵Table,, and for encouraging us to keep on going!!!! Never give up !!!! Dreams can come true if you keep at it !!!!💪🙏☕ Jesper thanks again !!!!

Your adventure with wood is wonderful. You've come a long way. Your talents deserve it. Dear friend, I am very glad that you mentioned me at the end of the video. I was very touched. You are truly a loyal friend. And one day I would like to host you in my country. You are always invited as my special guest. I truly congratulate you on your personality, talents and friendship. You are the man of success. And thanks to you, I learned how to drink cider. :-) You're amazing, my friend. Congratulations. Big greetings. All the best. Stay healthy and happy. Kind regards. Your friend Mehmet who is proud of you

I found your channel by accident today. I was so caught up in your work, your narrating ...your personality! You're a Dynamo! Great story and thank you for taking your viewers along with you on your journey!

Wonderful to see such an honest and humorous video. I’ve only had time to watch up to the end of the adjustable height desks, but the section on sealing the floor and knocking over the jug gave me a good laugh as that’s exactly me all over! Looking forward to seeing and learning more ❤

Well done Jesper, take heart. As a Brit I much appreciate your humour & honest wit by revealing that things don't always go in a straight line and its the risk of trying that bares fruit. I hope people also appreciate the sheer effort it takes to produce a seamless professional video content that sadly is taken for granted. Cheers Bob

Hey there Jesper! Thank you for your videos, you (and a few other creators!) inspired me to make my first cutting board, and now have requests from other family members for more! Thanks again, and keep up the fantastic work!

He is the type of person I will support.. good story and great job. Lots of inspiration.

What a delight watching your videos. The interactions with other wood workers, the jokes, the clumsiness, etc...really funny and beautiful projects. You were telling a story, not just presenting a video on woodworking and that always works best. You my friend has gotten the right recipe for this type of story telling. Keep going. Wishing you many subscribers and success. Hello from offrgrid in the mountains of British Columbia, Canada

Being a woman raised around 9 noweigin brothers & male Cousins > this RU-vidr hits the spot. Your humor is exactly how I was raised to communicate! Lol ❤️ > your humble wit is amazing along with your natural talent. You deserve 100 million subscribers at the least🎉 Best site to relax/smile & be inspired! 🎉 Blessings Nordic Brother & wife.

Oh my goodness... you do amazing wood work. Never stop what you are doing.

I love your 2h30 movie, Jasper. Thank you for being a human being. Your hard work and dedication motivated me. Your honesty, mistakes, pumping music, good English and jokes made me what's the whole thing. You should become a movie director too! Well done Jesper... (and wife).

Well done Jesper. I enjoy your videos and have shared them with my 88 year old dad who lives in Nebraska. Appreciate your skills, hard work and talent.

You've just made my life easier. I was in the process of making notes on the top videos playlist, and you went and put 'em all together for me here. Thankya, neighbor! 1. That first "not very good" video is one of the first of yours I watched, and I think it's pretty great (MUCH better than what I can do so far). 2. I think the "breaking down pallets" was actually the first (after finding @DainerMade's pallet breakdown video-thank you, sweet algorithm!). 3. That workbench will always blow my mind. Wooden art. Pure. Definitely not simple. 4. I bought a vise (still not set up) after seeing the europallet pull-apart technique you use. Smarter, not harder. 5. Have we had the appropriate moment of silence for the pallet-buster board (1 or 2) that ended up in the big workbench? 6. "Nail-free pallets"? Believe it or not: I've got a source for exactly that! Video pending ... 7. That adjustable-height, multi-faced, dogholed table was "just" a side-project, and it's genius (and beautiful). 8. I've got new mask filters, too, and forget to put it on most of the time. "I'll see myself out." (literally?) 9. Still can't believe that you included me me in that video. Thanks again for "being excellent" to me. "We're not worthy!" 10. I bought a dado stack (still not installed ... a theme is developing) because of the bench video. 11. I'm trying desperately to put off buying a jointer. 12. Math = Magic (this equation adds up to me) 13. I'm inspired by @MorleyKert, too! 14. @DainerMade made me want a de-nailing gun, too. 15. "Why not unite the whole world?" Exactly! 16. I can tell that I haven't been doing this stuff long enough because I don't yet hate sanding. 17. That slab matrix rig is amazing. 18. Juice groove cutting intimidates me. Someday ... 19. Mom is having a Maple tree taken down, so I'm planning to try some "cookie" projects. 20. The sun-and-sea table project is another early-watch video. Almost decided I should give up and sell all my tools. It's THAT good. 21. I've found some curb-alert chipboard, so herringbone projects are in the offing. 22. I've tried a burn finish. Fail! Good thing it was just an experiment. 23. The Hobbit-esque table is great! 24. Epoxy tragedy? Yes, that is my fear, especially since I'm not good yet at editing montage sequences. 25. I now know to save the spool bolts from the spool by my rv that is now too weather damaged to be turned into a vise-bench. 26. What is the technical name for the workbench leg tenons? Quarter-lap?! 27. Rest in Power: PALLET BUSTER boards! 28. You don't need me to tell you how beautiful those drawer-fronts are, right? 29. When I try my pallet block table, I _can_ miter saw them to uniform height with a stop block set-up, right? I don't have a flattening rig (or the work space for one) yet. 30. The music cue timing on the time-lapse is excellent. 31. I love seeing the "rubbish wood" come back to life. 32. I hadn't noticed the handmade bench dogs until this video. Very nice! 33. I forgot about the scraps for bonfire bit. I actually made a video I didn't post asking about "how scrappy is too scrappy to actually trash?" I've got my answer! 34. Shorts in tall grass?! Are there no ticks in Denmark? 35. I've got a chainsaw-mill rig. Haven't used it yet (yes, again). Hoping to harvest some walnut trees on a little piece of land I own. Not in the budget quite yet. 36. I showed Mom the bench video to explain what I want to try when her Maple tree is taken down. 37. This long vid is a great experiment! Do you get the same credit when I watch at 1.5 speed (and have RU-vid Premium [no ads])? Cheers!

You my friend are as talented as you are entertaining! I loved your narration as much as your creations. 👏🏽👏🏽

The Path Finder Table is brilliant. this name with your narrative sells a story.

This wood-centric video is seriously eye-opening! It's amazing how a simple material like wood can be transformed into stunning works of art. Your insights and techniques truly showcase the beauty and versatility of wood. Can't wait to see what other surprises you have in store. Thanks for changing the way I see wood! 🌳✨🎨

God video, God redigering, God humor, Godt Engelsk + Kreativitet = God underholdning ! Alt succes velfortjent 👍🏻😉

Normally not a big epoxy fan - especially from "wood workers" - and river tables probably even less so. But this isn't a river table. It's a magical item. It looks like a wizard's library. You must therefore be the wizard. Absolutely the best use of epoxy and wood in combination that I've seen to date. Love it. 👍

An amazing collection of projects that all turned out really well. Good job for overcoming all obstacles and also showing us how! One of the best evening filling woodworking videos out there for sure. Impossible not to watch in one sitting... subscribed!

Hey Brock, do you! I love your videos. I’ve picked up quite a few how to’s from you. Keep living the dream and enjoy it as long as you can. Thank you and God bless!

I love crafting and diy. Have seen a lot of videos without wanting to subscribe. But this guy’s sense of humor and self irony disarmed me ) Godt gået fortsæt Jesper 😅

That river table is so beautiful, I almost cried... after all the desperate measures to contain the unexpected, it turned out great!

What a truly amazing office you’ve made. Beautiful tables. Blessings, from the beautiful hills of Tennessee.

Incredible story Jesper! I wish you continued success. All the best from the US!

Mistakes sharing is the one of your attractive parts in your videos. Thank you.

Took my students to Japan in 1999. Saw lots of Shou Sugi Ban wood burning. Glad you discovered the technique. Love your story of resilience and thank you for your recycling! You rock!

Incredible! Great story and great pieces of art ! Awesome

This was absolutely amazing! Every second of it. Thank you for this. I wish I had a talent for woodworking!

Hands down the longest video I have ever watched, and was intrigued the whole way. Sub'd and liked. And indeed this changed the way I look at wood! Keep up the great work!

Hats off for showing the bobos. We all have them and usually try to hide them. BUT it's part of the process and shows people WHY creativity can be so painful AND time consuming.

It's like watching the past 3 years all over again. Great video.

Superb video, Jesper. Enjoyed watching it and the narration mate 😁👍. Very inspiring

Awww! ❤❤❤❤ your projects, your video (great laughter, excitement, entertainment. I'm completely drawn in), and chosen music! Respect!! Hälsningar från Sverige 👋🤗

That was the best, most complete, video I have ever seen on RU-vid. I am delighted to see someone displaying so many diverse skills to such extraordinary results. Thank you so much, from an old greybeard !

Excellent! Subscribed!

This is amazing. I love your videos. I really appreciate that you show your mistakes and how you overcome them. Keep making these awesome videos!

It is awesome how each problem you face, not only do you keep going but, you work through the issue and try different things. There is more than one way to fix things normally.

the goal is 1 million subscribers....get to it!!! thank you Jesper.

I have been mesmerized for nearly two hours and can hardly wait to see the rest. You are so inspiring! Thanks for sharing all your mistakes as well as solutions. Keep it up!

Jasper….Hey I just stumbled onto your channel! I’m only been doing wood working about 3 years and have been messing with epoxy art and cutting boards . Really enjoyed this video and your projects are very cool! You are really inspiring ! And you really have some great tips and tricks! Thank you! Really looking forward to watching more of your projects!

Cheers! Amazing work and presentation! Flawless!

Absolutely love how this video is done. I loved working with wood when I was a teen. This video makes me want to get back into as I haven't forgotten anything.

Hi Jasper! I've just finished watching your video and I must admit that I haven't been so hooked on any commertial film for a while 😳 Congratulations! 🎉 I hope that your passion for woodworking brings you a lot of money, so that you can comfortably do what you like most. Just don't forget to drop a viedo or two for us here 😜 I wish you all the best!

If I could subscribe again I would, you are awesome! I have been doing professional woodworking and furniture for 40 years and in some of your projects you make me seem a novice. Please keep it up and thank you for sharing your journey!

I think you're doing a fabulous job and I admire you for your candidness! And just remember, YOU'RE NEVER A FAILURE IF YOU LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKE! You've got this 👍🙏🙏

Jasper, I don't know how I stumbled upon your channel. My guy, you are an awesome individual, I absolutely enjoy your channel, you are a teacher and an inspiration, don't stop doing what you do bro, thank you and God Bless!!!

Epic video. Watched it in one go. Respect & admiration of your effort, achievements and inspiring resilience. Kudos for the editing as well.

Well done on not only reaching but blasting past 100k subs, you put lots of effort into your projects and the editing for videos is great, glad to hear you have had plenty of sponsorship because you have earned it!

Just started watching your documentary 14 minutes ago, and I'm instantly a big fan!🎉 I dont say that often. So I'm excited to explore your wood... Projects!

11 Minutes longer than the Napoleon movie I watched in the theater last week, but just as suspenseful, with very little bloodletting, and with true good humor. Thank you!

You know, I just had a thought. I’ve just discovered your channel. My father probably makes most of your other mates here look like novices. My father is a Master Craftsman Carpenter and one of few left in the world of his caliber. He rebuilt the Red Bridge and The Zig Zag Bridges in the Memphis Botanical Gardens. He worked for DisneyWorld and not only rebuilt the Old Train Station, and a lot of interior work at their world resort. He built many cabins and houses and even put up SkyScrapers in Houston. It’s an art form that is being killed off by the DIY generation, but the point is my father is in Somerville Tennessee and he has a huge workshop, and he even bends his own wood, and my idea is that maybe you could do some videos with my father and learn some techniques from him. Maybe it would be mutually beneficial, and keep the Art alive. His name is Conrad Vincent. Maybe he could learn something from you. He never filmed his work, but maybe he should have. He just built some beautiful nailless windows for a Gentleman in Tennessee. Another quick story. My father used to work with another Master Craftsman named Charlie Mix. That name may or may not sound familiar to you, but his Grandfather was a Silent Movie star named Tom Mix. Tom Mix is mentioned in the movie “Tombstone” as he was the one who they say Wept at Wyatt Earp’s funeral. My father even took care of Charlie once when he was ill. But he passed away a few years ago, and was another artist gone now. Charlie used to brag on my father, and tell him he was the best. My father thought Charlie was one of the best. You can definitely learn some cool stuff from my father. ✌🏻

I'm having a deja Vu moment, I could swear I've seen this already.

Jesper, this is one of the best videos I have ever watched! You are such a beautiful, kind and awesome story teller. The way you talk about your journey is one of the best things I have ever viewed. Your work is beautiful, courageous and long lasting. I am so very glad I found you on RU-vid. I would sure like to somehow message you and have a small chat. Thankyou so much for sharing your artistry!

Dude you ROCK!!! One of the best videos and motivational life lessons stories I have ever seen!! Thank you for the experience!

Shop tour

My friend got robbed in Denmark, it was a group of refugees from a certain community. I'd suggest kindly lock your workshop atleast, now that you've shown this to the internet. Denmark isn't the country as it used to be anymore.
