Jimmy DiResta's Brownstone Birdhouse

Added on by C. Maoxian.

Unsullied by a fire escape ... no idea what a ShopBot is but it made the "brick" facade.

In New York City, brownstone apartments are some of the most desirable places to live. In this episode of DiResta, Jimmy makes a brownstone that's for the birds, complete with brass poles and brick facade. See the full video: http://makezine.com/video/diresta-brownstone-birdhouse/

Jimmy DiResta Makes Bookends

I love watching Jimmy DiResta make stuff. Here he is free-handing the bandsaw again.  Take note of the shape of the pinkie finger on his left hand.  It met the bandsaw up close one time.  

I first learned about Jimmy DiResta from his TV show "Dirty Money," which is still the best trash-to-cash show I've ever seen.  It ran only one season which proves that the TV gods are not just.
