This Old House host Kevin O’Connor visits the workshop of Rocky Canyon Rustic’s Sarah Nadarajah to build a custom table with Sarah’s favorite techniques.
SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse.
Sarah Nadarajah is more than just a maker and owner of Rocky Canyon Rustic. She’s also an inspiration to folks who want to tackle custom projects but lack the confidence to get started. Host Kevin O’Connor visits her shop to talk about her content, but also to join her in building a custom end table with some of Sarah’s favorite techniques.
Where to find it?
To cut the 3/4” plywood [homedepot.sjv.io/eKWE71] to size, Sarah uses a circular saw [homedepot.sjv.io/4P7669]. To shape the round edges of the shelves, she uses a jigsaw [homedepot.sjv.io/zNORYm]. She then uses a pocket hole jig [homedepot.sjv.io/g1E6dg] and drills holes for screws to attach the middle divider and back piece. To cover the holes, she uses pocket hole plugs [homedepot.sjv.io/WqkdoJ] and wood glue [homedepot.sjv.io/KjPqLn] and sands with 220-grit sandpaper [homedepot.sjv.io/Nkm047] to make it flush.
Sarah uses a hot iron [homedepot.sjv.io/4PNmV0] to adhere edge banding [homedepot.sjv.io/LXNmkV] to the edges of the wood to create a finished look.
To finish it off, Sarah applies a walnut stain [homedepot.sjv.io/PyDVxj] with a brush [homedepot.sjv.io/AWN3ZK] and wipes away any excess.

I'm watching this episode [4/13/24 @ 3:30-4pm, in MD] on MPT2, right this minute!😀 When she said she had a couple of channels, I looked her right up.😄

For those inspired by her to make, I say, GREAT! A quick few thoughts on safety. Power tools and long hair or long sleeves can be very dangerous. Keep your hair out from in front of you, and opt for 1/2 sleeves. Also, when cutting and when applying chemicals like stain, be sure to protect your lungs. A dust mask for cutting and a respirator when dealing with VOC. Let’s all stay safe in the shop.
