He's a perfectionist. He sees every miniscule flaw as a major issue, which is one of the reasons He's that good.

It's the most beautiful. well balanced, and gorgeous table anyone could proudly own, I'm just happy that it's me who got it before anyone else!!!

Kid your commentary is hysterical. Love watching people like you working with wood and turning these slabs into works of art.

Nice to see a young man working with his hands and create beautiful furniture

A few tips for you from another woodworker - Bowties are only really functional if the grain of the bowtie runs in the same direction as the length of the bowtie. If they run cross grain, then when the table splits, it will just split the bowtie along with it. That is some weird grained wood you used for the bowties, but it appears to be mostly cross-grain in the orientation you chose for the bowties. If you could break the bowtie at the narrow part with your hands, it is doing absolutely nothing structurally. Most people never route to full depth on the first cut. You should really only take like 1/8th inch down per pass to avoid unnecessary heat & stress on the router bit. With the speeds they spin a broken router bit can be very dangerous. Water stones are supposed to be soaked in water for a while before you use them. You can put oil on a dry oil stone and lube on a dry diamond stone, but your water stones should really be soaked before you use them. They also get dished in the middle very (VERY) quickly so you should flatten them with a diamond plate or sandpaper on plate glass/granite every couple tools.

I'm a painter, 25 years experience. I recommend you use wood conditioner before staining your wood. It evens out your stain. And your work is awesome bro. I learned a lot.

We are our own worst critics. You accepted the challenge, you stuck with it and completed it, all while doing your best. Beautiful table, you should be very proud.

You did not make any mistakes. You just learned what works and what doesn't! Gr8 job!

I like how you're not afraid of admitting you made its good to see you do fantastic work

That project should fall in the 10,000$ + price range! Keep up the great work

Good to see a kid do real stuff with talent & passion.

Your attention to detail as well as your excellent commentary was so interesting - and I’m not even a wood worker!!!

Don’t sell yourself short. This table is worth 5-10k depending on your customer base. It’s beautiful my guy keep doing what you’re doing

For a young man with other plans in life ? You're amazing !! Your attention to detail WILL SERVE YOU GREATLY IN LIFE !!! No matter what you do !! The Important Thing Is You Care !! How many people your age, or mine which is older, CARE about anything ?? You're Amazing !! And Please Don't Let ANYONE say or make you feel any different !!. YOU MAKE YOUR LIFE !! MOSTLY !!!!!!! YOU MAKE YOUR HAPPINESS !!! GO OUT & KICK ASS !!!!

I’ve been a woodworker for over 45 years and I can honestly say that this work was of very good quality. I’m not going to talk about personal tastes as they are….personal but really about the woodworking aspects. I agree about the over use of resin in tables. The only saving grace - the only redeeming factor - is that adding some very non-green resin does make use of a slab of timber which would otherwise have become firewood or so chopped up that it produced a large percentage of waste. What does irk me somewhat is that the fashion-cost of waney edged slabs. They are currently much more expensive than square edged timber and yet have had no production cost associated with them. Just the laws of supply and demand. 2 tips and 1 fact of woodworking life. Firstly, that fact of woodworking life. I’m not surprised that you found it very difficult to marry together the centre joins of the table base. Each time you cut, it’s not 100% accurate straight from the saw - no matter what - and putting 3 slightly inaccurate joins together just makes that more obvious. There are 2 solutions; either hand tune everything or, as you did, simplify that design. I would always advise people that, when needing to make very accurate cuts, fit a new blade. Even a slightly used blade will produce enough resistance to skew the timber slightly. First tip is to put slightly raised feet on the base so that the 3 points of contact between base and floor are smaller. These can be wooden blocks or, as I prefer, just small blocks of rubber as these ensure that you don’t get a rocking table on an uneven floor. Second tip is on how to cut a 50 degree angle on the table saw - or any angle over 45 degrees. Adjust the blade so that it is 40 degrees to the bed. If the angle between blade and table is 40 degrees (or whatever), then the angle between fence and blade will be 50 degrees (90 degrees less 40). Having or making a tall auxiliary fence that will slip over the existing fence means that you can safely clamp the piece of timber to be cut exactly perpendicular and run it through. I hope that helps someone

Man the gold colors with the dark browns looks absolutely beautiful

What an amazing table! I just love the live edge, and shape of the wood slab.

A lovely piece of work. Good Luck.

Absolutely beautiful work! It’s fabulous.

Yes nice work, I am an certified arborist of 34 yrs, from L.A. 7 uncles 1 grand father + 4 cousins with 2 sawmills. Great work, keep stepping out past your comfort zone. Great Job!

Gorgeous, beautiful, and great job!!!

It is beautiful I love it thanks for making videos like this ❤️❤️❤️

That table turned out beautiful.

Absolutely beautiful workmanship. I have only just found your channel and subbed immediately. Sir, you are a genius. Absolutely gorgeous work.

These videos are a “twofer”.. First I get to enjoy watching the creative process (& the exquisite results.) Secondly, they are super relaxing. Thank you for posting.👍🏻👍🏻

Beautiful job...love the results. Keep it up!!

Great carpentry job!! And your production of the video is fantastic with narration, camera work etc. Just subbed.

You created a beautiful table and clearly earned this new subscription! The retired teacher in me says great job showing your work, mistakes and all.

Thanks for adding the miter joint issues. Good learning points.

No need to be disappointed in your craftsmanship...you did an Amazing job! You are only going to get better! Off to a great start!!!

I'm impressed with the job you did.

Absolutely INCREDIBLE

Beautifully done and I enjoyed your frank commentary. Certain this will sell for a good price and make someone very happy.

The beauty of the base complimented the beauty of the wood!

Beautiful table.

Good call on the brass. Perfectly compliments those golden grain highlights

Made Burrell wood & Manzinita root and limb cocktail tables years back in the 70,s . Love watching you make your artistic creations. I will keep on watching & subscribe!

Very enjoyable video. Impressed with your skill and patience

Great job, hope you got a good price for it in the end. Look forward to more projects from you 👍

I believe you did a great job and ended up with a beautiful table.

Great job man. Thanks for sharing your mistakes and corrections. It helps all of us woodworkers get better. Great looking table.

love the shape and burled wood...but would love to see the crevases allowed to show and fill with a clear epoxy...seems like the prettiest parts.

Nice creativity. You must VALUE yourself, your contribution to the art. Thank you for sharing. Can't wait to see your portfolio of buildings. 😊

Absolutely awesome. Turned out so well and really enjoyed your video. Looking forward to many more in the future

Beautiful work!I learned so much from this video. Please keep making and building - and showing us.

Admire your honesty. As Jimmy D. says .. the first one is always a learning curve .. thks.

A very nice video demonstrating high skills & great efforts coupled with immense passion. Great job indeed.

Beautifully done! ❤

Nice job on the table and filming and commentary. I look forward to you next project.

Gorgeous piece of furniture!

Beautiful work. Very lovely table

I thoroughly enjoyed watching you do this project! I'm a fellow woodworker, and even at 66 years of age, I continue to learn with each new project. I can tell you are passionate about your work, and quite talented, so just keep enjoying what it is that brings you fulfillment! As far as putting a value on that table; it's priceless! You will never be able to put a monetary value on something you enjoy. I can't tell you how many of my projects I have given away to relatives and friends, and their appreciation is ample compensation. You seem to want to compete with yourself, trying to better your time to flip that slab over. That's fine, as long as you don't hurt yourself or have an accident and damage your project. You'll learn that old saying : "Haste makes waste" the hard way. Well, keep making nice projects and putting them on KZfaq for all of us to enjoy!

Looks great boss ! You understand the natural grain and how to them shine. I'll bet you could do wonders with colored apoxy in 100 year old wood. Keep sending videos, damn good work son and keep learning...oh ,I'd put a $5000 price tag on it

Great video!! Please keep showing your mistakes, it educates us and makes us remember that we learn as we do.

Excellent job young man. 👏 Thanx for sharing. GBU

This is quality work. Love the base. Nice job. Hope you make a tidy profit.

That is just beautiful.. I love when the resin is added and brings the wood to life. An amazing talent.

Beautiful piece! ❤

Great job on that table dude, the issue you we're having with that glue up was you were glueing end grain to end grain witch is very difficult without some type of mechanical joinery because end grain absorbs the glue before it can bond to itself. The cool thing is you kept at it and these are things you will learn, we've all been there!

BRILLIANT BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF ART.I ENJOYED WATCHING YOUR VIDEO.

The table turned out fabulous. Well worth ten grand. First time watching but I am backing up and watching others. New subscriber also

Beautiful work. Most of us woodworkers have had re-dos. It's all a learning process. Keep on keeping on.

It is when we mess up we learn. You did good 👍🏼 😊

I wouldn't know a good table from a bad one but looks like productive use of time and energy 👍

Absolutely beautiful.

You are a fine woodworker me boy! I’m 69 and learned from my dad! Have the same issues with joints! Nice job!

Beautiful work I sincerely enjoyed the video

For the makeshift track saw, I recommend finding something thinner like a T-Square, taping the down with double sided tape, and then using the circular saw in the other direction so you can have the larger area base be supported.

Good looking work, mistakes and all. Don't beat cha self up, you did a full disclosure as you did the video explaining when you wasn't certain... Great job and thanks for sharing.

Don't criticize yourself ! Perfection isn't real .....its an elusive thought ! Your work is beautiful ❤

You’ve done a fabulous job. I’m a 70 year old lady, from London, UK. I think you’re great and I hope you’re really proud at what you’ve accomplished. Well done! I think the table is worth between 4000 and 5000. You’ve put a lot of work into it

Absolutely Beautiful

As an interior, trim, carpenter very nice job on the table.

This looked soooooooooo good.

You did a beautiful job

Beautiful. Pat yourself on the back. Excellent work young man 🍻

First time viewer here. I gotta say your production value is wonderful - great editing, soothing and crisp narration. The table is beautiful, too, of course!

Really enjoyed the video and your work mate!

It’s beautiful!

Can't wait to see the new layout.....you always do a great job ,...thanks 😊

Just - WOW!

Good work. Good commentary as well. Certainly agree on the blacktail vibes. Mistakes happen, but important to show them like you did. We are all human. Might have sanded down some of the burl nubs slightly to prevent catching clothing or trauma. But great job overall.

I have never watched a video like this before. Very nice job.

Beautiful Table. You got a nice price for it. Loved watching the work. I subscribed. GOD bless

Excellent results!

My second thought on this. I have a friend who does similar work and was paid $10,000 for a table like this. It was a live edge slap as yours and similar legs. I know this because I helped with the project.

Beautiful work

Nice job youngster that is a beautiful piece of work. I'm an old guy who can't cut a straight line with a brand new saw. My says you've the talent and the want don't give up you'll get better and master it as you go. The old timers in Quartzsite Az.

Don't worry about your mistakes..you are learning something from them...I know your next project will be a much better 💪👍👍👍 good job

Beautiful table

Watching your video miss my late husband that’s his trade saw. You using all that tools brought tears to my eyes/// enjoy it God Bless// hope to more videos

Great video. Nice project. Enjoyed it.

Guess that was a little heavy, huh? This is magnificent and I am impressed with your craftsmanship. Cheers!

I get blacktail studio vibes, and I'm a big fan of his work, that's a really great video and a really beautiful table, I'd say it's worth 3500$.

Beautiful table!! New subscriber. Keep em comin!!

You did very well!

I have a cookie from the former Oldest/Largest Hollytree (Eastern North Carolina) which I acquired after the tree fell during a storm. From about 6' above the root section, the cookie is approx 32" in diameter. Your burl 'cookie' looks amazingly like mine from which I made a side table. Wish I could post an imagine. Best regards!

Shane my mom & i really enjoyed your commentary & sense of humor 😂 what amazing things you create!

Omg love your table your channels awesome and I would price that anywhere from 4-6k probably. You gained a subscription today!! THIS IS LIKE Blacktail studio QUALITY!!!! ❤❤😊

Absolutely beautiful...🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇨🇦
