I really appreciate these Start To Finish videos, they are both inspiring and very enjoyable to watch. I really like the way you edit and the upbeat music you serve us. Awesome build, looking forward to seeing your own table come to life!

Amazing project! Great work! Thank you for sharing you skills and ideas.

Beautiful table! Thanks for sharing and taking us thru the process

The butterfly keys really add another level to the visual beauty of the piece. I didn't think I'd like the contrasting colors very well. I love it now. Great work. And the nail story, nice touch for the story of the build.

Love the tables and the nail story, I like that you have such passion for what you do. It keeps it real. Cheers Samurai. watching from the UK.

Thank you Samurai. Inspiration. Talent. Pride in work. Rewarding work. Beautiful things that last.

Love watching you work. You are a true craftsman. Thanks for uploading.

You are a joy to watch work. You are SOOOO talented and I really do enjoy your channel. Keep up the good work. And you're right... that story is TOTALLY worth a broken bit. Not only are you a phenomenal carpenter/craftsman, but YOU GET WHAT IT"S ALL ABOUT!

Another Beautiful project. I love seeing the quality you put out.

Great video! Fun and entertaining to watch, and LOVE the story about the owners parents putting the nail in the tree! I'mma like this video all day long!

I love you treat the wood and also how you take time to craft such beautiful pieces of work

Beautiful work! I finally have the inspiration to start working on my live slab

Mad Skills, Bro-tato chip!!! Inspired me to use a live edge on my next table build. Thank you!

Those a beautiful tables and a great conversation for the clients to tell there friends and family.

What a tree, what a story, some beautiful tables. Wish you a great week

That's so awesome I'm now subscribing

Awesome work and awesome video, I just got my own tree two weeks ago to do my own live edge project, thanks for the help and inspiration

This is what I want to do for a living. Commission slab tables and bar tops from home. Gonna be checking out more of your vids and learning quite a bit, thanks for sharing this.

Beautiful work. Thanks for the video.

That is an awesome story glad to hear it there's always something good that can come out of any situation

Such a beautiful work of art & a family heirloom - a two'fer!

Absolutely amazing!

Awesome work, nature becomes art showing how beautiful nature is. Legendary

Talent! It takes time and skill to develop. And it takes time to create a remarkable product.

These turned out beautiful. Rustic yet modern!

You, sir, are incredibly awesome!

Thanks for the stoke and awesome tips. Was stoked to find out your in Vic...Port Alberni here and just beginning my woodworking journey.

absolutely perfect! very good job mister

Great Job Sir.... Thanks for the Help !!!

Loved the tables! Great job sir.

great build, well done,

How can people dislike this video? Blows my mind. Great content man!

Fantastic build. Looks awesome.

As a boat owner, I've used epoxy plenty of times on various projects. It was cool seeing how you used it on the slab. Beautiful work, great story behind it too.

I had a couple of fairly large black walnut trees milled into lumber this summer. Thanks for the video. I will attempt to recreate something like this at some. Largest slabs I have are 6' x 30" z 2". I particularly like the legs and how you created them.

The Carpenter can weld, very well at that. Beautiful work of art, well done.

Loved the fusion of wood and metal in this project. Hope to see more in future? Try playing around with aged metal, rusting, it'll add another dimension to the piece. Keep up the great work 👍

That nail story will follow that table wherever it goes, that is so awesome!!

Oh man i would love me a desk like that, beautiful !

It's great to see this style of video again

Sam, great video with great content! Very inspiring

Super cool story about the nail. Nice job on the table!

That came out insane wood is so timeless and beautiful.

Très belles tables et du beau travail comme d’habitude. 👍🏻

Killer video. Great story. Beautiful tables. Thanks.

I learned about epoxy a few years ago, while making cubicle tops for the GC I retired from in 2010. I edge glued old ceiling rafters for this project the material was full of knots. using cheap blue painters tape worked for me to plug the holes in the underside. Good Job Samurai

Love the tables, i need to get going on some slab tables of my own. I finally have a router, now i just need a big ass bit, router sled and space to create dust!

Beautiful work my friend! Hopefully one day my talent will be that amazing.... been in construction for a lot of my life and now I'm looking into doing wood working as a hobby (started my own channel as well to share) so it's hard because the construction thought process is TOTALLY different than from a wood working thought process! Again, amazing work... very talented and inspirational.

as usual amazing video and very cool project!

It looks so good!

Love the table. Love the sawhorses to lol I need to make me a set of them

Excellent as always!

That’s a stunning table. The bow tie joints are as near to perfection as it’s possible to get 🙂 also, cool story bro.

Beautiful build as usual.

STUNNING.

Love that story! Lucky to have that kind of history:)

great job friends, finally I see you welding very well👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

Stunning!

Amazing work !

Great job. As always ! Your videos are so motivating, thank you. Every piece of wood has a story which make our job awesome :)

Just beautiful!!!

Next up, you should do live edge side-panelling on your car, 70s style.

Wow...nice job...really liked it :) Keep up the great work. Have a good'n & be safe.

I just saw your series of videos on these tables and hats off to you! They are gorgeous! And also, I’d like to thank you for sharing your experiences while building these tables. Should I ever do something like this, what I’ve learned from you will be a big help. I’ve also noticed a number comments, from, what are undoubtedly master craftsmen with years of exceptional experience! They’re all entitled to their _sshole opinions. If only they had the intestinal fortitude to put their work out for review......... Keep up the great work and channel!

Glad to see you do a commission project!

I saw where Norm Abrams used a metal detecting wand on wood slabs to check for embedded nails. Nice job and you are an inspiration to me.

Simply lovely

Looks sweet! 🤩

I love the camera angle when grinding down the welds.

You make me smile 😊 PS : great job with a superb "slab" of wood.

Thank you, Sensei. I am just starting my own project using a piece of Sapele. The whole plank is 4.6m long and it's 80cm wide and 7 cm thick. It weighs well over 200kg (probably around 500lbs) which is my first problem. I am going to use half of it for the top and the rest for legs, so I should be able to manipulate it, once it is bifurcated. It has one large-ish crack which I will keep as a feature and use the solid end for the legs. I am going with big slabs (70cm x 50cm) for the legs and putting a bar between them for stability. My wife tells me I need to do more weight exercises. Anyway, it was good to watch you do this. Thanks again. Most interesting, though, was just watching the transformation of a tree into a table.

That was pretty good story thanks for sharing in the entertainment

So baller. That sure came out nice! Great story to go with the nail!

Great project and video.

Awesome table and story

Lovely work! Plus, you've turned this table top into a "sir" with them bow ties. You've made this look so easy too, our table build was a learning process to say the least haha.

Nicely done!

Can't wait to see your own dining table build video!

Super nice work bro!

That table looked AWESOME bro!!!! SIIIICCCKKKKK DUUUUUUUUDE!!!!!!

bad ass table! awesome build!

Great Job man, I didn't know Macklemore was so good at wood working!! :D Cheers from Italy

Отличная работа! Вы настоящий мастер!

MASTER of the UNIVERSE !!!

I appreciate how you didn't finish it super glossy. Looks great just the way it is.

Thank you for the blow torch epoxy trick :)

This was the best of the best!!! But in weeks to come this comment will be meaningless compared to your next projects! Keep it up man - insanely inspiring 🙌🏼👏🏼

Great video for all woodworkers with advanced degrees in mind reading.

You inspire me!

That. Was. Awesome.

Very cool very talented God has giving you awesome skilled gifts to use your hands Crafting wood and metal. Thanks for sharing. I have a large piece of maple that came out of the back of a floorboard of a semi truck trailer. Beautiful piece of maple he has the countersunk holes in it From the old carriage through Bolts. Very cool looking. Just want to get some ideas watching your video broadens my thinking. Thanks very much take care brother

Pretty Cool, hopefully going to make a few live edge (waney). Thumbs up, make it look easy and worth it¬ . Thanks

Amazing Beautiful

Absolutely gorgeous. And the fact that there was a story behind the nail really made it worth the blown bit IMO. Question, and i hope you get this. But I recently bought a few slabs of beechwood but even though beechwood is used quite a bit in furniture/cabinets I can’t seem to find a whole lot on finishing of this particular species. Any suggestions?

really nice!!
