Nick Offerman Answers Woodworking Questions From Twitter | Tech Support | WIRED
He’s so serious😂
I love this guy. He’s one of the reasons why I started
Why we woodworkers seem to love old fashioned shirts?
He considered his shows as conservative, I think I heard it in one of the question videos.
0:37 😂💀
“And your one hitter”
There’s a book on finishing😏
The drawer joint that remained unnamed is called a Knapp joint. It was popular in the late 1800s as machine woodworking was gaining popularity.
Is Ron Swanson Nick Offerman or is Nick Offerman really Ron Swanson?
Legitimately one of the most soothing things I’ve ever listened to
lol “and your one hitter”
How high is Nick here?
Aprons: ” and You can put your weed in there”
At which angle*
Better resource than I am*
Love you Nick but you asked for it
I love that his laugh, isn’t a ron Swanson laugh.. this dude is amazing
5:10 those are beavertails
u the president ron! 🎉
2:56 I would first address your grammar. next time try, “much better resource than I”.
False. Nick is the object in this sentence and not the subject, so “me” is correct.
@morothane1 no bc the complete sentence would be “much better resource than I am” not “me am”
@teddtheninja “Me” is used correctly here in place of “I am” since it’s the object and informal.
“Than” could also be prepositional and not conjunctive here.
Conjuctional: “this book is much better than I am as a resource.”
Prepositional: “this book is a much better resource than I am.”
“Me” is perfectly acceptable with his use of it here. Not sure why you commented this anyway.
Cheers
@morothane1 technically you are correct. i commented to be cheeky because offerman made a point of saying “i would first correct your grammar”; therefore the context is most certainly not informal making his prior use of informal grammar stick out like a sore thumb. you also didnt use “me” in either of your examples. i genuinely appreciate you taking the time to clarify and please know this is all my grandmothers fault for rigidly correcting my grammar as a child. if youd like i can send you her email so you can explain the difference to her as well😂😂
also i appreciate the “cheers” but i dont drink; perhaps thats why my grammar is correct.
^last part was 100% a joke, just poking fun. i genuinely appreciate your comment. im simply being facetious.
I’m glad to hear you say “I hate stain”. I’m a long time woodworker who never uses stain. If I want something that has the color of walnut or cherry, I use walnut or cherry.
4:45 that joint isn’t done by a machine.
It is done by a hand crank drill and a jig.
