I figured as much as well, but wasn't quite sure... cuz the girl seems quite confident when she starts talking.

[-] bazus1@lemmy.world 33 points 7 months ago

I feel like they broke into a random house to do this.

Right... cuz no sane person does that on the marble kitchen table in his own house.

Wear Personal Protective Equipment, please: Respirator, glasses, maybe gloves. We don't need rock dust in our lungs or eyes.

Dull knives, dull minds, dead from silicosis.

[-] ElJefe@lemm.ee 8 points 7 months ago

Or maybe, y’know, just don’t do stupid shit

“Perfect” as the steak knives jut at random angles.

This take up so much more space than a butcher block and I’m sure those holes are going to smell great after a few months of crumbs mix with wet knife drippings in the dark zone beneath the counter. Luckily it’s completely inaccessible to any kind of cleaning.

Yeah.. I could smell the mold when she went and shoved a wet knife in the slot 🤢

[-] Donjuanme@lemmy.world 21 points 7 months ago

Because maybe I like all of my knifes chipped, errr, serrated! Yeah, maybe I like all of my knives serrated, definitely not chipped

Cutco knives tells me all I need to know ....

This is an early stage meth addiction kind of project

[-] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 12 points 7 months ago

That tool has an attachment with a provision to accept a vacuum...

[-] AnalogyAddict@lemmy.world 11 points 7 months ago

I bought my house from people like this. Thank heaven this idea didn't cross their little minds.

[-] aarRJaay@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago

Why are the knives so far away from the food prep area?

[-] tyler@programming.dev 17 points 7 months ago

Because they’re replacing the countertop and this is just to troll people before the installers get there.

[-] douglasg14b@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago

Brought to us by the bozo who drilled. Hole in their counter and drawer for waste disposal?

[-] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

Trash chutes in counters is a luxury feature, but there is a right way to do it.

I get the impression that their entire channel is redneck DIY.

Some will use their power tools for good, and some for evil.
