Obviously everybody has a different background, but it does seem like the most common story involves Dad, Grandpa, or an uncle having a workshop. It seems a lot of woodworkers out there had a childhood of swinging hammers or building something, but that’s not you. I was lucky enough to gain the attention of a few notable podcasters who helped by featuring my work and giving me some encouraging words - and that really gave me that initial boost that I needed.ĭesigning and building the Foureyes Record Player Cabinet. Luckily, I found my tone/style pretty quickly, and for the most part, people seemed to like it. But my philosophy, or mentality was always on controlling what I could control, and that was just making the best videos that I was capable of making. When I put up my first video, I really thought a lot of things were out of my control, and I guess to some degree that was true. I imagined that I would spend the first several months making videos that only two-hundred people would see. When I put up my first video, I really did not expect things to move this fast. I feel really lucky to have gained the following that I have so quickly. Speaking of your YouTube Channel, it seems your video and design style have really struck a chord and been very successful. Is that a one-legged table? Yes, yes it is.
