This is a video of woodworker Oleksandr Hrytsai carving a life-size xenomorph skull out of dozens of cross-sections of oak he glued together. I would have gone with a solid piece of oak myself, but that’s just me and I know nothing about wood, woodworking, or anything worth knowing in

These are a couple videos of Wyrmwood Furniture making a beautiful inlaid wood desk featuring a scene from the original Super Mario Bros. game using over 2,000 pieces of precision cut wood. Now that — that’s a quality desk. Way better than mine. Of course mine could actually be made

Months in the making, this is a video of KaplaBen building and demolishing an ~18,000 Kapla block tower. Ben says he began construction in November 2024 and completed it in April 2025. Amazing nobody snuck in and knocked it over in that time. The tower is the third prototype Ben

This is a video of a carpenter demonstrating his nailing skills while constructing a large triangular wooden frame. He sets and then pounds each nail in with a single strike, never missing a beat. If that had been me, most of the nails would be bent, all my fingernails would

Wormholes: they’re important to be able to identify if you want to catch nightcrawlers so you can go fishing. “Different kind of wormhole.” I knew that. I am an expert on space, after all. This is a video of skilled woodworker Olivier Gomis constructing a wormhole coffee table out of
