00:00let's make it ugly just or less ugly so i can charge somebody a lot of money for it

00:05hello are you gonna help me or you're just gonna sit there hello yeah you i'm talking to you

00:09fine lazy i'll do it by myself i did it now let's destroy this thing

00:22then let's go ahead and remove these pokey sticks so don't accidentally jab myself in

00:26the hand later not that that's ever happened to me before and then dispose of them immediately

00:29so they don't put holes in anything for that matter again never happened to me before it's

00:32just called being responsible and honestly it makes me feel very adult but now we're left with

00:36this someone take the hammer away please actually don't it's chaotic and i like it honestly i feel

00:40a little bit more enthusiastic about life now but obviously we have to fix all that which i could do

00:44if this drawer would come out it's stuck on something but i can't see what's back there

00:47can you see what's back there please tell me i'm not grabbing grandma panties what is that

00:50phew just a scar or at least it was a scar rip your sacrifice will be remembered but now the

00:55repairs can truly begin starting with removing the glue

01:00and now we can see all the damage we did yep we that means you too you witnessed it that

01:04makes you an accomplice you and your eyeballs are guilty but don't worry nothing a little blue glue

01:08can't fix the only con is you gotta work fast so once you put the magic sauce in there you better

01:13hustle go go go fill all the things and while that dries let's start working on the base which

01:18first needs its bath a little scrub a dub dub honestly for a pine dresser this thing wasn't

01:22in bad shape but it's still getting a major makeover just because i feel like it

01:27for my wood lovers you'll be happy to know we will be staying the time so this old finish has

01:31got to go also for my wood lovers we will be painting everything else sorry and if you think

01:34that's a crime just remember millions of americans cut down a pine tree put it in their living room

01:38hang shiny things from it and then two weeks later leave it on the curb to rot which honestly

01:42is very on brand for americans but if you still think it's a sin to paint this wood i think jesus

01:45will forgive me and i'm willing to take that risk however the unfortunate part about painting pine

01:49is that pine has a lot of imperfections wow that's a lot of boobs and while waiting for this

01:58to dry i did make a panic purchase because if we're not doing the most then what are we doing

02:01we're gonna go pick it up get in loser we're going to lows mission accomplished now i just

02:10have to cut it up into a million pieces okay fine not a million more like 42 plus six just

02:14in case you can never have too many just in cases and how did i figure out how many pieces i needed

02:18dad he's got the tools as well as some mathematical calculations we're ready to apply pew pew and

02:24then repeat 42 more times plus six and that's why you always cut just in case pieces hide the

02:28evidence with more filler it's like nothing ever happened sand the new addition flush and then it's

02:33time to get out the power tools because i didn't want the old skirt competing with the new design

02:37and i didn't really like it so then it's prime time

02:44and then of course one round of filler is never enough filler so repeat until it's perfect then

02:48caulk all the seams make it even more perfect then it's on to the paint what color do you think

02:51i'm gonna pick did you say smoky dope by benjamin moore if you did i'll give you a million dollars

02:55and last but not least we're finishing the top with toxic chemicals glug glug glug glug glug glug

03:00and now that that's clean precondition wait 30 minutes pick a stain color i chose this one say

03:04a little prayer to jesus dear baby lord jesus please make this dresser look good so i can make

03:08a lot of money and wow my prayers came true it's beautiful i guess you really do get whatever you

03:13pray for life hacks so what do you think was all the work worth it would you want to put this in

03:17your house look at it every day and be like wow that dresser makes me very happy the only

03:20appropriate answer is to say yes and if you're wondering if it's sold yet no it hasn't but that's

03:24because i won't list it until i finish the matching dresser yep it's a set so come back

03:30next week to see how rich i am who knows maybe i'll even buy a boat
