I’m a mason myself and done a lot of stone projects over the years, but seeing this video makes me think that I haven’t done everything yet, maybe a new sink is in order for myself
Reading this I was really hoping you were going to say “makes me think that I haven’t even “scratched the surface”” 😉🥁
Que tipo de rocha é essa?

I was just thinking the same thing myself!! Bathroom reno is coming up and this looks like a great addition
@@MTNJOHN You won!
That sink rocks!
Nice piece of work. But because of your cuts, someone could miss the very important part - to spill a bit of water before draining the sink hole, to find out the curvature of the inner of the sink and where to drill the hole (it has to be the lowest point of the sink)
Yours right. I didn’t notice that.
He absolutely had water in there while he drilled the drain, though it wasnt quite as minimal as it couldve been. All in all, it worked with the amount of water present.
What type of pads were you using to buff out the inside of the stone?
I mean surely that's basic knowledge tho. If anyone who attempts this has plumbing knowledge then I'm sure there's nothing ro worry about.
The first thing I notieced when he started drilling the sink hole seemingly randomly xd
Very beautiful. But if you used a band saw with a diamond blade you could cut the rock in half and make two out of one rock and save some labor(and save on blades), also a larger concrete saw would help to make deeper cuts, reducing time on carving the bowl
This. 🤝
Just assume a diy'er doesn't have those tools.
@@c.5376 No, that
@@cyborgar15 maybe then, as well?
Agreed this guy so dumb
As a concrete cutter u just helped me find a side gig for the summer
Absolutely beautiful, lots of hard work but well worth the effort. If I walked into you’re home and saw that immediate Conversation piece. But keep under the cabinet clean because I’m definitely looking to see how you have it hooked up 😂
I am building our house, and our building location has nothing but round stones from glacial erosion. I finally know what I will do as a tribute to my battle with the boulders ranging up to 8' nuggets. Thank you, cheers from Canada.
Probably better to split it in half, then start the dig-out process. Save your self some time and wear in tear. Also you would have a potential second sink to work with. Very beautiful sink 🤙🏻🍺
I would cry if someone built that for me.
I can just say a word AWESOME I can assure you it will last centuries n centuries lol.
Thank you !
I love sinks, counters showers etc made of stone. That's one cool sink!
We are manufacturers & exporters marble handicrafts
Wow, just beautiful! No "But..." comments to add. You built it and put it out there! Thanks for the video.
Hope you're using a respirator lots of water would help reduce that dust that can cut up your lungs, regardless of being outside.
Beautiful stuff such a great watch. These basins cost a small fortune, I can certainly see why given how labor intensive it is.
I’m sure there is a quicker way to do it but the tool costs would likely outweigh the labour. Thanks for watching!
a true art congratulations
Next level craftsmanship and patience! The thought of just grabbing a stone from the wild and turning it into a masterpiece is really worthwhile. If I got the skill to do this I would make a wooden faucet from scrap woods or a bamboo one.
I wouldn't recommend wood for a faucet, as wood rots quickly when wet. But bamboo might be a good alternative 🤔
@@davida6146 lol you wouldn't just leave the wood bare.
@@BlakeGibbons so what would you do with the wood?
@@izzimichaels2892 It obviously gets treated. There are wooden sinks. Lol 🤯
@@BlakeGibbons oh i thought you knew. thanks anyway
Funny thing, people will see this and say, hey maybe I can do that! Maybe, maybe not. But what you've done, was motivate people with your craft. Motivation is a great thing.....
It never hurts to try something new, worst case you will gain new knowledge 🤓
I am very inspired by your greatness, can I sit here while studying? ❤
You made it look easier that the Samurai Carpenter an only using an angle grinder.
Wow so beautiful. You are really creative. So elegant and classy. Unlike the usual factory made white sinks that make you feel like you at the dentist.
Thanks for the comment! 👍
Wow... Now that is painstaking work and commitment. Bless your patience and skill. Beautiful work 💜💜💜
I feel like you should have used plumbers putty on the drain and not silicone but I’m super inspired. Might have to do this for my bathroom. 😍
I'm very very impressed. What a beautiful thing you've created from a chunk of rock.
I literally coughed twice and sneezed once while watching this lol. Really neat idea, I don’t think there’s any better way to do it.
Good man, watching sports while working in the bathroom. That's the kinda multitasking I can do
Gorgeous. Just like the Egyptians and Romans.
This video proves what I have said forever. "If I only had one power tool at my disposal it would be a 4" angle grinder". You can get a chuck attachment to drill the hole. Well done
😳wow... this is incredible. My video shows machines doing this process, but watching it done by hand BLOWS ME AWAY! Awesome video!
That is just awesome! Fred Flintstone, eat your heart out!!
At first I didn't think that rock was gonna be big enough, but the end result looks great!
Peace Family, Beautiful, excellent work bro. Respect
Personally I would always use a corded angle grinder for a prolonged job like this, just gives you that much more power and no need to stop for battery changes. Nice video 🤙
He did switch to corded lol
And back to cordless for the delicate work shaping the sink.
@@Alexander_l322 It's always great to have several tools of the same kind; saves having to change blades etc. all the time - I think this guy is a great craftsman
@@rasmusdanborg7803 this isn't really an issue anymore but older/lower quality tools overheat so there's another good reason to have multiple
im 55 and it takes something special to impress me now this is sublime f#cking gorgeous brother well done man well done .. anciently inspiring
Now I am inspired. Thank you very much. What a great idea.
I feel like I need to make one of these now. It looks like a lot of work, but fun work! I forgot to say how beautiful it is. I love the water fixture you used. It fits right in!!
Thanks Tracy! It was a decent amount of work but worth it on the end
@@DrewBuildsStuff I agree!
1 year layer - is it worth it? Have you had any issues arise since? Is it difficult to clean the sink? Is the sealer you used holding well? I've wanted to try this for so long but I can't convince myself it's worth it. So cool though, thanks for sharing your journey on this project!
Anything you build for yourself is always worth it. I haven't built one yet but sealer ti water proof is easy to find and apply. The rock will never leak and the water drain should last for years.
What a joy to be able to wash your hands in something you made with those same hands. 🥳
Wow amazing super cool 👍🏼👏🏻
Thank you 😊
For similar sorts of things out of wood, normally you would just drill a bunch of relief holes to approximate depth and then chisel out the waste. Could then use the grinding disc for the final like 10-15% before the final sanding and polishing.
Exactly what came to my head when he drilled the drain hole with that tool towards the end. I was like, “should’ve used that since the beginning!” 😂
the angle grinder doesn't need to have water constantly poured over it to continue to function... air can keep it cool. and you don't have to stop to remove dust.
A beautiful creation. Bless your talent/ skill.
This is a great example of why you should use the right tool for the job. Could have saved yourself so much time
What's the right tool?
Good job my friend have a nice day 👍
WOW! Artistry at It's finest.
Thank you!
I just started carving my basin last week. Ran into this video by accident while looking at bathroom design. Using power tools sure seems to make it look easier than what I'm going through. 🤔
Just beautiful ,like everything from Mother Nature and the hard work of the artist ! Thanks
Imagine having to do all that by hand… 🤯 Power tools are a blessing!
Man that was awesome 👏🏾🙌🏾, But should have made the cupboard black that way the plants and scenery really pops… just my opinion anyway
Imagine the efforts they would have put without power tools
Ready to start my project. Thanks!
that’s a beautiful sink :o
Thanks to KZhead for recommending this. Subscribed!
Only a real Canucklehead would be watching hockey 🏒 while renovating a bathroom Drew 😆😆 love it 👍🏼 The sink turned out pretty cool buddy 😎
A great piece of art
This was really good. I ducked down to see if the drain pipe would make it through the hole, as if I was with you, haha.
What a beautiful succulent planter!
Wow that is cool, so natural with a piece of Earth history
absolutely stunning! I love it. never really realized what went into making such thing
Just remodeled and watched hockey on my phone the entire time just like you hahah awesome sink!
This is Indian art beautiful ❤️
7:56 Love the enhanced colors those couple of seconds. Very nice work and fantastic video, well done!
Thank you Kevin, appreciate it!
Sencillo, exquisito, hermoso. Felicitaciones 🎉
Awesome project. My grandma had a pool that was carved into the side of mountain. Full size pool 10' deep with steps really cool. I'm assuming similar to this but 1000x the labor lol
Fruits of your labor are beautiful👌
Amazing work m8! Put a amber glass soap dispenser with black nozzle there and it's perfect! 👌🏼
Какая красота и сколько труда !!!!
That is really amazing. Thank you for sharing. I wish more people would do this, instead buying garbage from China.
They tell us the Egyptians used nothing more then a stone hammer and a copper chisel...or perhaps the people before them had power tools like us. Nice nice work...I like its organic natural look.
Увидел тот камень и подумал - а не сделать ли из него унитаз? Отлично получилось.
Really hard work, end product looks great. Only problem is all the algae and soap dirt that's going to accumulate in the pores on the outside of the stone sink. Should have polished smooth outside as well, I know looks would have been compromised
Потрясающая работа! Молодец!!!
A work of art. I love it. I wouldn't look forward to trying to clean all the little pores and nooks in the stone when my kids got tooth paste all over it though.
Haha good point, it’s our main floor sink so haven’t hand anything other than soap and water in it.
Dude. You've got good hands on diy. I'm a jack of all craftsman and I like the content.
That's brilliant!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Комментарий в поддержку канала и ролика, а также труда мастера.
dude this is awesome. love watching your work from start to finish. you're very talented and i'm glad to have subbed when i found your flowing water table. when i retire from the military i want to do stuff like this
Turned out really beautiful! Wow
Now that's a sink bowl that will last a long time
Heading out in yard to find me a rock😃 love it! Will have to borrow tools tho.😬 think I will start with making a shallow water basin that can be used by the birds.🌱🪨 🐦🐦
Great idea!
Very hard work and highly skilled work
Love, love, love 💕
Awesome work! Thank you for working so hard on this and thank you for sharing.
I like the way he spends water just for filming
my goodness what a awesome work of art this sink of stone it surely deserves a much better base
Reminds me of SamuraiCarpenter! Nice Work!
That’s awesome / this would make a great outdoor project
👏👏👏👏. Master Craftsman 👍
Muito bom irmão, Deus te abençoe! Que belo trabalho!
Great content, thanks for sharing💚🌍
Super good and eco friendly
Good looking work Drew! ❤
so wonderful beautiful i love that so nice
Nice. Now you need a matching toilet.
😬 that would be sweet! Not sure I have that many free hours to take in that project haha
Splendid job..! 👍🏻
Definitely the best thing i watched today, thank you 👍, subscribed
Thanks Tux! Appreciate it
very nice . i especially like the live edge vanity top .👍
Thanks Pappy!
Would be cool if it was recessed a little in the vanity
It’s pretty heavy so didn’t want to compromise the strength of the wood. Thanks for watching!
This is eco friendly better than those plastic sinks.
I would have just used my wet saw to plunge cut it after grinding the rim . I’ve done this to make bird baths ashtrays sinks ect it literaly only take 30 mins
Haha might have saved me some time 👍
Very cool project. And amazing result.
Thank you!
I absolutely loveeee this!
