In this episode Jimmy (DiResta) shows us how he duplicated the dimensions of his favourite stool, then built a far sturdier version. He manages to incorporate some otherwise useless but still-pretty walnut that he reclaimed from a scrapped project, and uses a don’t-try-this-at-home table saw trick.
Always remember to heed Jimmy’s warning: “I have been using tools for over 40 years. I have developed my comfort level with tools through years of experience. DON’T DO THE DANGEROUS THINGS I DO.”
He also explains and shows you how he gets a fantastic weathered finish on the steel, among other things; there are tons of clever production tricks here.
