I'm glad you did not use wire legs. I saw a few with wire legs and they do not look proportionate to the scale of the table. If you ever build another one, I did see a build where they used a plexi-glass panel for the support leg. From a distance, it looked as if the open end of the table was floating...…. great job April!!

That is such a great tip to match the angles of the leg pieces to your drawing rather than trying to figure them out separately! I love the way this table came out. The bowtie leg is inspired!

Loved the coffee table. Have your hubby buy a 14 inch metal chop saw. They cut quicker and cleaner. The Rage 2 by Evolution, Itron or Dewalt dw872. They cut clean almost no heat, faster and work a very little dust and no sparks. Kirk

Brown paper bag is an excellent way to get the kulls to come off easily. It's an old trick used in woodturning to make unusual shaped turned pieces. Just strong enough not to bust while turning (if you don't get too aggressive) and breaks ones you wack it with a mapat to separate the pieces.

At 8:07 when you are pouring the clear coat April, if you will turn your can 90 degrees or laid over on the wide side, the contents will pour easier without splatter. I remember my dad teaching me that when I was such a young boy and have never forgotten it.

Wow, that was a really involved video. By the way, I prefer "West System to "Total Boat", not because Total Boat is inferior, it is a grat product, but, because West System is mor transparent than the other. Ecellent coffee table.

Very nice work April. I have viewed countless videos that you have posted and this is one of the best. The design just looks amazing, about “cheating”? This is why engineers make full sized additions to blue prints,, especially in the boating industry.. you have come a long ways in a very short period of time. I/we as your collective audience are thrilled to see your success. Just thrilled. West systems also makes pump style epoxies along with thickening powders to keep the epoxy from running .. To date, your Entry way table, your clamping rack, and the shop fold down table are among my favorites. Best of luck with new projects. Consider making bow ties to insert into bigger cracks,, they may add some strength to cracking wood.

👍 You can also make clamp-on culls . When you making waterfall table or bench and you want the joint to be closest as possible two lined up but removing the least material first cut on 90 degree the blade is much thinner then on angle then measure 1/32 along the top edge on the end-grain that's where you want to make your 45 degree cut after glue up and sanding the corner you should end up with just about perfect as you can get corner

Love how you are always trying new things. Not seen you use epoxy (thanks for working the coupon deal...gonna need some for my boat project!), do a waterfall effect or demo that cool clamping trick. Might you want to rotate it 180 degrees when setting it by the sectional? Everyone can more easily see the matching grain pattern that way! Cheers!
