ABOUT THIS VIDEO
There were a lot of firsts with this project. First ever Carob Wood slab, first time using Iron Bark Eucalyptus. Even some of the woodworking techniques I used were firsts for me. Plus, I do something that might make woodworkers unhappy with me in how I ultimately treat this wood. But don't judge until you see the finished result!

As another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us don’t have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we won’t be able to practise the full stack project, is still great.

Hey Chris, Just met you through the past 4hrs, in watching your videos. Thank you so much. I'm appreciative of all the knowledge and wisdom you bring to the "table", lol, back at you. Your work is exquisite, so well thought out. Your process of building ties into above thought. I catch you, your approach, your reasoning, your ability to understand the problems that come up, and how to remedy them in a Simply Genious way! Much respect! Like "high five shit". Truly it shows, that you've been through the miles, the hrs, the dedication, that all leads to success. I'm so happy to have found your channel. It's all at the level of my experience, which is to simply say; you give much value to all levels. You make things understandable, creatively, as well as practically. You do this in a manner that teaches "all types". The world of carpentry/woodworking, holds many levels of understanding, techniques and personalities. There's much wisdom on all levels for all types! Its incredible to me, the amount of knowledge, and,technique, you are passing on... just a big high five! Way to go! Keep it up!

Thank you for another great video. Your artistic capabilities shows well in your videos. To the question of the table, it doesn’t matter if I like it or not. This isn’t a commissioned piece. The only one that has to like it is you. That’s the great part about doing non-commissioned builds. I will say that the fact you took the time to think about that grain coloring and find a way to make it more appealing to you speaks a lot. That’s a level of detail that you don’t always see (and one I’m guilty of ignoring). Your joinery is at such a high level. Thank you for the inspiration!!

I hope you don't mind a little suggestion to save a little time, but for those aluminum mounting brackets you might just cut the corners (no pun intended) on the brackets to the routed shape so you won't have to chisel the sharp corners. This might also in the future prevent the wood from splitting in those sharp corners from any stress between the table and legs.

I’ve had thoughts and even sketches nearly identical to your support system for this table. It’s meant to be a dressing bench for the end of our king bed and has been ready to go for many months, I just haven’t pulled the trigger on the thing. I don’t own/use dominoes and I’m primarily a hand tool only guy; only using jointer, planer, and on occasion a bandsaw to mill my timbers so I can do more of what I enjoy with the hand tools. The only way I can see this working for me is with bridle joints where the stretchers meet the legs, but the air gap between the seat and the slab is exactly what I’m aiming for. Thanks for emboldening me a bit on this and maybe it’s time to take the project back up. After all, the slab isn’t doing anything for anyone sitting stickered and ready to grow legs in the shop 👍

Stunning. It's very therapeutic watching an artist at work. He's very talented and smart and love his ethos on life.

I believe that this is the first time I've ever commented on a you tube thingy. I really enjoy your work and in particular your attention to detail. I recently bought a cnc machine and have been making waney edge tables for a while before that. Epoxy isn't to my taste and yet you certainly do a wonderful job of your tables. I've been joining waney edges along the grain structures and matching adjacent planks to one another with wobbly lines rather than butting straight planks. It works really well. More than anything I'm impressed with your charitable affiliations and since you asked, I really like the combination of drawings animations and the excellence of your video editing.

Huge +1 for the slow down tip. I've been a hobbyist woodworker for almost 30 years. I improved a lot over the frist 5-10 years as I added tools and learned new techniques, but then the quality of my work kinda' stalled. It was good, and there were few things I couldn't make, but the overall quality of the finished product was stuck. I had seen lots of really nice furniture, so I knew it was possible, but I couldn't pull it off, and I didn't know why. Fast forward 10 years, and in my 40's I simply grew more patient. I didn't know much more about woodworking than I did a decade earlier, but I was making fewer mistakes, doing fewer touch-ups, and getting noticeably better results. I didn't slow down because I thought it would make me a better woodworker, but because I was in less of a rush. Even then, it was a couple years before it occurred to me that my projects were consistently better and not really taking much longer, all as a result of slowing down. Maybe I'm denser than a block of chechen, but I eventually identified the secret sauce.
