My wife and I love your channel. We know that you are not a woodworker who is a Dad. You are a great Dad that does woodworking. Thank you.

"this is why we spend time together, for moments like this" amen
-
The best part of this project is the memories you and your daughters will always cherish. I have pictures of my son pounding on 10 inch stakes on a retaining wall "we" built when he was 3. The extra time that my helper cost me were well worth the memories we both have of working on it together.

I sketched up some plans for a workbench of my own that combines some elements of a few different types of well estalished bench designs, and I was pretty proud of it. I even reached out to a realtively well known wood worker on here for their thoughts, where I was met with "nice try, but don't mess around with the classics." This video is all I needed to realize that there isn't one person out there who has all the answers and that my bench is going to come out great. Well done, man!

after watching many corkniffing woodworking youtubers with all the fancy woodpeckers and festool toys while they press buttons on a cnc half the time, its great to see theres actually a few channels that actually show the blue collar woodworker struggles. that being said, i wont get too made once your channel blows up and you get all those fancy tools lol

10-15 years sounds like a long time... but it goes past so quickly, spending time with the kids & later the grand kids is more precious than anything else in the world...Keep creating memories❤ & things from your workshop.

This channel is always so much fun to watch. Love the girls being involved. We raised two, so I know how it is. I've been remodeling our entire house for the last 3 years, including a new roof. I'm dying to turn my attention to my workshop, but don't have time yet. I've watched a lot videos on benches to get ideas on how I want to build it. Not one of the great workshops came up with the brilliant idea the worst workshop did. Making an extending apron from an old garage door track is freaking ingenious!
-
I love the family connection you have and the appreciation for those moments with your kids, and love the velveta humor.
-
Absolutely great video seeing your girls out there helping you making them memories the workbench turned out great. Glad you are doing ok 🙏🏻🙏🏻
-
It’s awfully sweet of your girls to help out. I know my 5 yr old would try really hard to help too cause she just loves being with people.
-
I too suffer from the dilemma of formerly being 20 and thinking I still am.
-
The expandable apron is ingenious! You can use it to support sheet goods while ripping them down without damaging the tabletop! You must have felt really proud when your daughter decided to stay and learn how to make a mortice. Even if nothing else comes of it, it was a great bonding moment.
-
Love the extending apron idea. Even more, I love your comments about time with your daughters. So true. People talk about quality time vs quantity time but it's the quantity time that leads to the quality times. I have memories about working with my sons. They're grown now and tell me about significant moments that they remember that I either didn't make note of myself or have forgotten. Good job, Dad!
-
You are one of my YouTube faves. I have two daughters as well, strikingly similar to yours. I joke with them like you joke with yours, and drag them into my projects every now and then. Thanks for keeping it real. Your common sense approach to problem solving is inspiring.
-
very touching scene of you working with your daughters. I built a little boat with my son when he was 7 or 8. The boat was nothing special, we only took it out once, but the memory of doing it with him is something I am sure that we'll both remember for the rest of our live. He's 24 now and I hope some day he'll build something with his kids.
-
your "rule of thumb joke" coupled with the "please dont unsubscribe" remark is exactly why I just subscribed! lol im here for those kinds of jokes!
-
Your helpers are the best.
-
Love the way you made the workbench to suit your personal needs instead of conforming to "rules". I am quite tall so my workbench looks crazy to most people. Also great to see you sharing the work with your family.
-
I love the bench! Especially the expanding section. Awsome combination of multiple designs.
-
I don't think i was going to like a random video that shows up in the middle of my tech videos, i'm not a woodworker anymore due to my horrible vision at 55, did just get a cornea transplant that still has 16 stitches in my eye, mixed about that right now. But you're easy to listen too, and with a couple girls of my own, much older, if you can get them at that age to help you must be doing something right, so i like this video. I have several work benches i have built. Good work.
