I had a guy cut a set of wooden benches in half.
He spent the next hour trying to figure out a way to fix um.
Always enjoy your work. 👍👍
I made it by myself. I used Stodoys woodworking plans for that.
What is name tools by which you marked.
I think the problem with the apprentice is that he doesn’t have a good journeyman to take him under his wing…. And you calling him out like that makes you a dick
Tough oldschool framin fucks drinkin n smokin in the basement listening to deep purple
Omg, Ben I watch your skate videos! Jack of all trades! 💀🤙
Could you do a video on where you use drywall backing?
Badass tips!
Woah, I just started woodworking couple of days ago and building drawers for my Paj and look at what I have stumbled upon: my fav skateboarder!
What kinda glove you use
Do u have a video were u teach how to cutt all sorts of triangle methods cause im having difficult time figuring out a 90 inch angle but with different sides
If the women don’t find you handsome, they should at least think you’re dangerous!
Can you please explain how you use plywood strips for drywall backing? Inquiring minds want to know…always searching for drywall hacks.
Hey Ben, you know an Apprentice is only as good as his/her Master…….LOL, just kidding Dude……GREAT WORK as always. Actually there are lots of people in many different career fields that lack the necessary basic skill sets for the job they "think" they want and should rethink their career choices.
Great Job passing on your skills and experiences to help inspire others to achieve greatness within themselves!!!
I got so confused thinking that Ben Degros has a Canadian brother who does woodworking, only to realize that it is Ben Degros… lol cheers from Toronto!
Jeez, this guy is a handyman. That’s a big difference between carpenter and handyman. Period. Not even close to carpenter.
That is a good way to do it!!
How to cut degree cuts? DoI use a protractor? thanks
The wood costed him his whole YouTube career
Good video. I thought Canadians use the Metric system?? These Hoody cords as very unsafe, cut them off mate!!
I thought they used the metric system in Canada?
Mount some 2×4’s to the top of your benches and avoid them or you doing that.
Keep it tout.
Also in Vancouver, did not notice till you started ragging apprentices for some reason. Use the hand to guide myself but liked the tip for pencil inside instead of outside for marking. Keep them coming 🙂
thank you i do flooring this definitely helped .
Apprentices are great as an extra set of hands. As long as you treat them as an extra set of hands without a brain. Every movement they make should be shown and described in full detail. Ultimately any mistakes they make is our mistake in not giving them guidance. You can’t really get mad at them. Because of course you won’t tell them. But we’ve made stupider mistakes…
Keep it taught lol
What is the best way to skim a popcorn ceiling?
Yo, I love you for this!
You can also use a speed square by placing a pencil firmly at a 45 degree angle in one hand and pressing down on the ledge of the square with the other hand up to 7 inches.
my apprentice got his hoodie drawstrings caught in the saw. I was waiting witness it again at 6:30 😉
Safer using ur hands as a guide than clamping a vise grip to ur saw imo
Ben, I’ve been watching you for your drywalling skills but I haven’t found anything on what kind of mud you use for an initial coat and then for final skim coat. I’ve just finished doing quite a large basement in my home. I filled, sanded and the scanned with lights until I thought every repair necessary was complete. After primer (which is white) I paint . Then when I start on floor or the drop ceiling, being on my knees or ladder, respectively, that’s when I see bubbles or sanding lines that were missed. It drives me nuts and, to be honest, makes me admire the artistic skills of you dry wallers. Should I be buying separate types of mud or should I mix?
I hope the apprentice is still working with you. Stuff like that make for the best stories at coffee break….lmao.
I like the videos.
The teasing of the apprentices…. meh. As a professional trainer making fun of folks that haven’t done something before actually slows down the learning. It’s all on the trainer, not on the newbie. Just now you were 30 seconds from showing us a method that is dangerous till you remembered the rip guide. Just saying. The pro almost did a pretty bad thing that could get people hurt.
I like your videos ‘cuz you have a good demeanor, good demo skills, and speak clearly, not too fast. All of us can be better trainers. If you’re gonna tease a newbie do so privately, only after you & them have a good, strong trust factor going, and remind them what it was like when you were a newb as well.
nice tips, thx a lot m8
I bought a rip guide. Costly but once it’s set up right, you don’t even need to measure. Now I need a good way to make triangles for a corner cabinet. Guess i’ll just clamp a straight edge.
Imperial 🤢
do a kick flip
I always fuck up/flabbergas when I have to cut width and length off of a full uncut board. So do I measure the length first than cut and than cut the width? I sometimes find myself kinda confused when cutting board🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️

Hi bro amazk
Love your videos man. I’ve learnt so much from you.
Thanks Ben!!! You look so True skater and hard worker.
Yep, I’m an apprentice cabinetmaker and it is amazing the sort of stuff that is only obvious once a journeyman yells at you.
Are you Canadian? Why is this not metric?
Dude that last tip was instant suscribe material
Why don’t you attach a plank across the top of that "horse"…….. Then your "apprentice" wont cut the metal…. 😉
Really enjoying your videos, I’m currently refitting my kitchen, I in the middle of making a decorative free standing style base cabinet, I can’t believe I measured the original cabinet to 1040mm/41"ish and somehow wrote it down as 1400mm/55".
I wished I still used inches like yourselves, I was taught to use inches in school, some 35yrs ago, but trying to keep up with the times I try and use metric. I guess if it isn’t broken, don’t fix it.
not to put too fine a point on it but your apprentice was brain dead
