We broke our old router table, so we build this super simple Easy Router Table. This project goes super fast, and is very easy to assemble. With basic joinery and and techniques, a heavy top, and tons of storage, it would make for a great addition to any shop!

You know why this video is great is because we see all your mistake and the fact you didn’t edit them out. It’s just a great reminder that no matter how good we are mistakes do happen. I believe this is what is missing in a lot of wood working videos today as sometime it’s better to see the error yow guys make so we can use that as a guide line for other projects in the future . I love your channel enjoy the build and looking forward for many more like this.

Entertaining build. I appreciate that you understood your audience, knowing (hopefully) that we know which side of the tape measure to read. Also appreciate that you left a goof or two on the video...makes you mortal, and not some perfect woodworking gawd. The table itself is as good as any I've seen or built. Solid construction, stable materials and my personal choice for tabletop material. I do tend to use shellac for sealer...on all surfaces, top, sides and bottom...using a half-strength wash (equal parts shellac and alcohol) for the first coat, then two more coats straight from the can. Wax hell out of it, and top it off every now and then and that top will last as long as you will. Great job, crew. Thanks!

JM, watching you rolling the glue to laminate the MDF with the teeny weenie roller made me shoot coffee out of my nose. They do make larger rollers to expedite that process boss.

@morgan0179 3 жыл бұрын

True, but it was just a simple glue up, and he wasn't gluing multiple pieces, so why waste a longer roller for that? Unless you meant larger in diameter, in which case those absorb more and aren't as good for glue ups...

If he switched the sides, the drawers would have to be flipped vertically which means he would lose a shelf of bit storage as it would be on the top where there is not enough room...
