I'm only 2 years into my wood working adventure and it was youtubers that triggered this new found passion(and thousands of dollars that my wife isnt fully clear where I have spent). Some youtubers and their influence on me has come and gone rather quickly. I saw your videos early on, but they weren't the ones that hooked me or particularly interested me. Not flashy, not sensational, and most egregious, no promises of "make easy money with pallet wood". I wanted to make easy money and I wanted it to be easy. Well...

However, as I progressed and got more serious about what I was doing I quickly realized where true value existed. Your videos by contrast were down to the point, well reasoned, and you explain not just what to do but WHY you would want to do it/not do it and what to look out for. Something I have grown to greatly appreciate. So many times as someone getting into this environment you literally don't know what you don't know.

Out of all the youtubers out there you have consistently been the most informative. When I scour youtube for answers to a question I have and your video turns up in a result--it is the first one I click on now adays. While it may not be the highest praise; I consider you amongst the best out there.

You just spoke centuries of wood wisdom. In less than 7 minutes. It is official. I am old. Because I loved every second of it.

Thank you.

I really appreciate how articulate your presentations are...no filler, just useful info...a real delight...the best!

You're the guy we all want next door to help us on a whim, but glad we all have youtube and you're here.

I'm never calling myself a perfectionist again

I think I learn more here than anywhere else. Clear, concise, well researched. Nice work.

The brown paper bag works great, use it all the time. When I sand, at least after the first coat, I find I can actually feel and hear a change in the sound when the finish has become smooth.

Man I wish every teacher I ever had taught the way you did in this video. I love the way you present the information here, never change! <3

[jimtinter]

Outstanding video! Everything about your video was top notch. Excellent quality audio, lighting and background. No jokes or side comments. Got right to the point. Explained things in a clear, coherent manner with no vocal ticks (ahs, ums, so, etc...). Thank you and keep up the great work!

What a nice guy, so articulated. I dont even speak english and I understand every single thing the guy says.
I would pay for your friendship
Love your videos, you'r the man James

You are the goat of woodworking information on YouTube

[cagecatchum]

Excellent video. Perfect pace. No annoying background music. Excellent speaker. Thank you. It is very helpful.

[chrisammann]

I learn so much from these. What I appreciate is the logical and sensible reasons given behind every tip.

Mr. Stumpy Nubs, your GOOD! I watch a lot of how to videos. Your good. Your very clear, concise, and give every thing you need to know to get a process done right. You don’t go too fast. You don’t bore with needless minutiae. Thanks all the great tips and great product and tool suggestions.

For my final rubdown, a piece of wool sweater provides the right amount of abrasion to the finish. Thanks for the paper bag suggestion too. After reading many of the readers comments, I am probably the only person on earth that that had never heard of the paper bag trick!

This guy is just amazing. So much clarity in his presentation. I am not a woodworking guy. Just needed to finish an unfinished butcher block for a desk set up.

Such an informative video. I'm refinishing a wood floor in my house and couldn't figure out why on earth I'm supposed to sand between coats of finish. Every instructional video or article recommends sanding but doesn't give a reason why. Now I know! I appreciate the time you put into making this video so clear and informative.

[arehay]

I've been professionally staining for years and learned a ton from this video, thanks sir!

[nazpasfred]

Thanks for this tutorial. I’ve struggled understanding the process of so many coats of finish. Now I know the why as well as how to apply the finish. Thanks!
