This table is really well designed. Every piece is clearly labeled, kzfaq.infoUgkxn94T8Mu1iMnsLCMNOI9srXSsLkI4JXKW and the instructions are perfectly displayed, so it's really hard to mess up the assembly. The hardware is likewise clearly labeled. If I had a power driver, assembly time would have been cut in half, but I didn't mind the light workout. My only qualm is that is that the lift top is wobbly in between its open and closed positions, but that's really a minor complaint. For the price, you really can't get much better than this, hence the five-star review. I use it primarily for my wireless mouse and keyboard so that I can use my PC from the couch. Storage is nice. I'm totally happy with this purchase.

Your Segway to square space was hilarious. Just so nonchalantly thrown in there

This is the best Squarespace ;promotion I've ever seen. Please bring this version back

Was cool hearing the back story of this on MMP and then seeing it come to life here. Awesome!

Great realistic woodworking for those of us with small workshops (ie half of a garage) and modest tools

I like the simplicity and yet I got the feeling of modern minimal design. I will add this to my to do list.

I love the ratcheting band clamps. Harbor Freight sells them individually for $6 and they work very well.

Nice to see you are getting more portable equipment.

Love the Michael Scott quote on the whiteboard!

Mike Montgomery makes DIY actually seem possible.

This guy is why I started making stuff. Approachable fun video with great tips. Anybody can do it if you want to.

Nice, wish I had a plainer, wish I had doweling jig, wish had had a pocket hole jig, wish I had a table saw, wish I had a truck to haul wood 😁

Great to see the two of you working together!

After hearing about this table on The Modern Makers Podcast I was stoked to see it.

I do really like that stain. Good job on the table...the little lifts on the underside are a nice touch.

Saw this same table at ikea. Great build !

Beauty. Favorite part of your videos now... the ads.

Slowly filling your house with all the stuff you've made? Another great project you've done, nice and simple! :)

Uniquely like. Simple and beautiful!

SO now we can see the video of you making the matching benches :)

I know I’ll never do any of this but I enjoy watching it

I like how you got ellen to help you stain it X)

nice warm Dining Table Goodjob!

the office reference in the background though 👏🏽

I need a desk this long!

I would really love to see you make a light weight easel. I’m an artist and I used to have a beautiful full size wooden easel but I couldn’t take it with me when I moved because it was gigantic and heavy. I’d really love to learn how to make a cheap and light weight one!

As an Aussie I imagined this with an ice tray, of sorts, in the middle for those hot, unbearable heatwave days. The tray would need drainage holes and be big enough to supply all those never ending mates who would be wanting to come around to help you enjoy your new table. 😉

Great video Mike! A buddy needs a dining table and this may fit the bill perfectly! Can't wait for the written article.

Nice build! Looks pretty close to that IKEA one.

Really really nice, you’ve out done yourself again. 👌🏽

I love the table. Definitely going to try. How inspiring!

Love the early American stain on pine. I️ always make sure I️ have some of it in the garage. Might be crazy, but I️ actually like the look of it on pine better without the pre-stain conditioner. Especially if you’re going for a rustic type of look. I️ think the blotchiness gives it a more aged look. That table looks great with the conditioner though, so you might be changing my mind on that one...

Nicely done Mike! 👍👊

Great table, Mike!

I'll copy that when I go my country for my own use...... Help me a loat that's...... Awesome sir......

Ok, folks don't laugh too hard at me, not with me. Well, I'm new to Mike's channel. Soooo,I'm sitting here thinking, "this is carpentry ". The kind sold in stores, duh. BUT, much more solid. Wish he would let us know where he will put these items. Save for his new property in Joshua Tree?

Fantastic project! Think a lot of people might even attempt this one. Merry Christmas.

That Kendrick quote. 😂 Nice table man!

Wow very cool

This turned out awesome Mike!

Keep up the good work. I mean keep up the quality work your videos are truly inspiring.

good one Mike ! Thumbs up !

Great project as always mike - really motivational to see somebody make something amazing out of standard dimensional pine boards!

i don't know what these words or measurements mean but i cant stop watching!!!

I'm 👍# 192 and For Some reason the thumbs up that I give all videos whenever I use my phone never seem to stay so just so you know it's number 192 ..Lol I like the risers. Makes the table top look like it's floating..good stuff Mike matching benches are definitely a good idea.

ELLEN dropped by at 5:30 ???? nice work mike.

Beautiful table, and my favorite stain happens to be early American!

This is so awesome. I haven't spotted it if it exists but You should def make a vid about possibly good starting equipment for those of us who want to start woodworking!

I love your guys diy! So much stuff I can totally see making. This is simple and awesome looking

Good idea

Great Build!

Built this table...has a wobble both length and width-wise. Will have to add some type of cross both ways, which will probably take away from the look

Love the design mike! Great build

dude, you are the best! exactly what I was looking for, thank you!

Good job buddy, great as always. Loving your time-lapse portions in your videos. It's nice to be able to watch you work and see all the little steps

Nice build man! I like the round cuts for the risers

I also did not know this corner connection yet. Great guide. Thanks for your regular video's. Greetings Mr.Handwerk :)

niice!! i am going to biild my new desk like this, but may use a birch plywood for the top! thanks for the video

How is this ~31" wide if you're using four 2x12's as the top?

Cool table, thanks for sharing!

Very good! I Love. ..

Hey mike, all wood has a natural curve, known as the crown. When combining boards you want to make sure the crown or curve of all the boards are the same way. Usually the crown goes up in the middle so you don't get a negative bow in the middle of the table. Planning helps but over time the natural expansion and contraction of the wood will warp the table top slightly. Just another tip to help your get to next level production! Have a great one!!!

Love it man. I also have been wanting to say, I really loved your remodeling videos you have done. I hope you keep doing those as well. Thank you for sharing your work.

Beautiful 👌🏻 I’d love to see you collaborate with The Sorry Girls.

Lmaooo loved the commercial. Nice classic table!

Nice looking table, Mike!

Good job on the ad, fun and well integrated :) Oh and great table !

so nice

Wooooow I love this chanel

Amazing

I love the separation effect on the table top! Also. Were you able to get stain in between the two top pieces? That gap looked a little light but it could have been the lighting in the video! Cheers man!!

Hahahaha that ad was perfect

Make the benches too. I mean might as well

Hi Mike. Good looking and simple to build table, but I am concerned about wood movement. You screwed the top directly into the stretchers without elongating the holes. I think this may present a problem later on.

Loved this when you 1st posted and built a coffee table sized proto. Had built a few dining tables for clients but there was a lot of back and forth movement lengthwise. Did urs come out rock solid? I ended up having to apologize and go back and add V shaped stretchers connecting the bottom stretcher to the top. Thankfully the clients were gracious and tipped🙏

Its nice to see how the channel has evolve man, looking good!

Great Job DUDE!!! Love the Channel

Saw this in IKEA ;)

Hi Mike How are you? I liked so much your project easy and beautiful too. Congratulations as always.

Awesome! I would love to build this but do not have the thickness planer...lol

LOL your ads are amazing Mike #favouritemaker

I would like it if you listed everything you used such as the clamps and screws too.

Hi, I see you use water based finish over oil stain. Did you ever have problems with that combination? I was told just today that I would need to cure the minwax stain for three days before applying the water based finish, or go with the oil based finish. What's your experience? Thank you!

Really like how clean the joints came out. Table looks great! Although I would have liked it more if the legs and supports stood a few inches off the floor #giveitup

That would look amazing with a LED strip in the split. Maybe flush cover the split with diffused plastic.. Me just being weird.. :)

simple but nice :)

Could this be done without a planer for straight edges? If so how would you recommend doing this without an expensive planer?

Nice bro

Please make benches to go with the table!

Cool video. You might consider crediting Ikea for their table design, though. PS: love the channel!

That hair *swoon*

Do an outside sectional!

Mike, Ive watch a LOT of your videos and now I have to know... HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN LEFT HANDED? I never noticed! XD oy and nice table BTW...

MIKE PLEASE BUILD A MID CENTURY MOD SECTIONAL.... THANKS IN ADVANCE!!! 😉

@6:00 looks like you missed a spot when staining =) (pssst it's in the middle!) -- Table looks great Mike

Hey great videos! What would be cheaper, buying all new furniture or building it your self?

I am actually building this table. The questions I have is how high is the table and the square supports what is the measurements? Thanks and thank you for the videos.

the big problem is your end stands prevent chairs to be tucked at the long ends

Great video #giveitup #giveitup

dat office reference tho
