In the latest addition to my epic deck-building video series, I create an INSANE outdoor kitchen. For this awesome outdoor kitchen, I build a full BBQ STATION with a stone veneer and a griddle. This might be the final video. Or it might not. I’ve been having some hiccups with my door build. But you’re about to witness the build of an incredible grilling station for all my BBQ needs.
It’s finally time to get into part 4 of my EPIC deck series! For this part, I installed the stairs and railings onto my deck.
For part 3 of my epic deck-building series, I dive into my waterproofing system. But as I continue to lay down my decking, I come across the consequences of my own poor planning.
Because I love yinz so much, I dropped part 2 of my EPIC deck-building series as fast as I could. During this build, I dodged some rain, used some huge tools, and had a total blast framing up the deck.
For my latest video, I am pursuing my biggest and most ambitious project yet — building a deck! This epic deck build will take place over a series of videos. In my first video
A few months ago, Winchester Ammunition reached out to me about doing a project together. So for this latest video, I’m going to build a HUGE desk and Epoxy sign for one of their shooting

The other weekend, I was filling my face with the best comfort food around and binging hours of YouTube videos when I came across this wild build by the Slovenian Woodworker.
There are some projects out there that seem to be hellbent on breaking your spirit. For me, it was almost my crazy Epoxy waterfall river table build. But instead of letting the constant obstacles..
When it comes to woodworking, it’s all about the details for me. I think a lot of people can build functional pieces of furniture, but what shifts building for necessity into building for the love of the process is the craftsmanship that goes into the whole ordeal.
After watching a lot of TV from being stuck home in quarantine, I realized my workshop needed a new addition. Something great. A never-before-seen item that was cool and exciting.
In my newest build, I will revisit my last Impossible floating table and build another IMPOSSIBLE Tensegrity Table. This time I test out how much weight it can hold! I use metal and wood in this one to beef it up and help it become more structurally sound. This project does come with a few hiccups
