Building a large mirror stand

[TheEvanovitch]

d'archh, thats so annoying, i keep fooling around with drill bits and chisels and files and stuff, and create sloppy tenons and mortises, and he creates a machine, wich creates perfect ones, and really really perfect, and then he says ''meh, close enough''

[XxaphextwiniscoolxX]

@eried he uses normal wood glue (i think)

[eried]

Hi Matthias, which glue do you use?

[mateyvelican]

bob builder! :D

[razorpayne13]

thats tight,,,

[killaxKidx]

you gotta love this man your flipping smart dude :D

[petarbojovic07]

awesome craftsmanship !

[tombatom]

Matthias,

Next project: mirror stand with wooden gearbox for convenient tilting?

Or something even more elaborated nobody ever thought of?

[3PIASTY]

niesamowity gość ...

[parawizo]

great job

[kode1303]

Just a suggestion: post a film abot projects (if any!) that DIDN'T work ... just to boost the self confidence of the rest of us ;-)

[Matthiaswandel]

My next video will be about a project that I abandoned, but you will have to wait until I have the video and article all ready.

[allesmedvesek]

This copy/paste machine is just awesome. Thank you for sharing.

[Nardypants]

You never cease to amaze me!

[lordi03456]

Why couldn´t you cut off the part on the legs on the talbesaw??? Doesn´t make really sence!!

[complexpower]

Matthias gets da honies by building them next-level wooden artifacts.

[grannysvids]

I love your home made tools

[ChrisBowlas]

Were the wooden pads or feet merely glued in place, without even a brad or two to improve the mechanical strength of the joint?

[Matthiaswandel]

The glue is as strong as the wood, and a brad would only serve to scratch up to floor.

[ChrisBowlas]

@Matthiaswandel How could a brad or pin scratch the floor if it had been driven below the surface of the wood, using a nail punch if necessary?

[XavSch]

you deserve a nobel prize :D

[Plloppers]

I am in awe, good sir.

[4micaman]

Problem > Reaction > Solution - A master engineer/craftsman you are!

[Error081688]

well done as always

[NOLAMarathon2010]

Great video production. Great use of a ScreenCam plus Sketchup to show the components. Personally, I think Sketchup is underused by engineers and craftsmen.

[cometkite]

How did you determine how wide the base needed to be for stability?

[awsomecrossing]

...Made of wood.

[yacrafter]

The camera mounted to the sled is a nice shot. Created a solution instead of a problem, nice work.

[kratosjlv]

How much money do you spend on wood a month?

[oddmanelf]

>Putting pads on the bottom to stop it from rocking if the floor is uneven.

GREAT IDEAS'. GREAT IDEAS' EVERYWHERE.

[ratchet1freak]

I heard the glue bubble out at 3:10 a testament to the accuracy

but maybe if you made a small hole in the bottom of the mortise for the air to escape it would have been easier to insert (and created less glue squeeze out)

[igbhd]

i known you for 10 years and never knew you had a twin 8:55

[Kanikkl]

you are the wood man, luv your vids keep em up :)

[Kratax]

Made in basement

[wesellsex]

Are you a Wizard?

[EmperorAst]

I think you should have made it bigger. It looks small with that mirror in place.

[T4nm4y]

Best at world of woodcraft , and none of your videoes have gone below 95 like! DYUAM! Nice :P

[vincentleest]

finally,,, i see you using nails...

[Matthiaswandel]

where?

[vincentleest]

@Matthiaswandel

7:30.. welll technically they are screws...

[vincentleest]

@Matthiaswandel

7:30.. well technically they are screws...

[PATRIENIX]

@Matthiaswandel Sir, you are a damn genius, congratulations !! You can build you own things without buy them.

[SimTune]

@vincentleest he uses screws

[Demoman42]

awesome! build something useful with tools you made by yourself :]

[lordi03456]

TAADAAAA!!!

[qopti]

Did she like it? :D

[tagi3d]

what kind of life do you get out of that router bit before you need to sharpen or replace?

[fremag123vif]

Mr. You are just pure awesomeness.

[GreatInca]

Excellent skills if you find a peaceful settlement to live in after America's societal collapse.

[jubjuber1]

oh u want me to mount this mirror... one second while i invent a stand...

[robot797]

when are you making a blender or free toys for us

ps can i buy a raindrear from a previus video :P

[iAMsoBEAST1]

nice



[Xskillna]

So Matthias, what's it feel like to be the God of woodcraft?

[Sully800]

SCREWS?! Just kidding, excellent job as always!  Very informative and easy to follow.

[IIGaMeSlaVe540II]

amazing.

[JamesHaskin]

Your cinematography is great man. I never feel bored during your videos which is an accomplishment on your part because they're so informative.

[manx1324]

i love watching you work!

[gaussman08]

hi geppeto nice to meet you

[11heman11]

Do you make your own wood glue? why is it always in a little bowl

[leannaramadingdong]

Fancy is not a strong enough adjective for your jigs. Awesome idea. :]

[RDJim]

Do you do much with finishes? I noticed you had your new T&M rig finely sanded and clear coated. Do you work with stains and oils?

[thethethetheluis]

lol it looks a little goofy tho don't you think? I mean it wasn't that fancy of a mirror that went on it anyways but it just looked kinda weird

[ttk1opc]

"I couldn't find studs" Ya right, you were just thinking "Hang it? How am I supposed to use my homemade pantorouter and general wood kungfu?"

[BigBlack81]

@ttk1opc Damn right! Any techno-god would want to do such things. :D

[plumbersteve]

it just occurred to me that mathias looks like michael bolton from office space. 

[Akademee]

Bit of a tense moment at 8:39, eh?

Very good video, it is a nice way of showing off a lot of your useful jigs!

[igehring]

engineer way to do stuffs. Great jigs

[theCIAguy007]

You like wood ^^

[CRITZKRIEG]

everyones calling you in for favors

[specialks1953]

Good work. I hope you were nicely rewarded by your friend ! !

[Freshman000000]

@specialks1953 With sex.

[baldcarrots]

i wish you were my dad

[MrLeonard55]

Really nice.

[Bluematerial5]

Would you do a chair or a table :O?

[EuroPowa]

Thats no mirror stand, thats a lauch pad for you soon to be wooden space shuttle.

[MatthewTS22]

Does this stand only fit that certain mirror or is it a 'one size fits all’ device?

[barakuda1111]

hehe... gj 

[slinky211]

when u were doing the box joints u looked like a robot almost reminds me of tron

[ToiletMaker]

kewl.

[jvcrules]

hurray for sketchup. Its awesome for drawing out plans.

[hairbear47]

@jvcrules ... Evil Plans! muhohaha

[jason99uk]

Looks awesome.
