Technically, its not hardwood. lolz

I worked for an unfinished furniture store doing custom finishing for 8 years. We only used 150 grit sandpaper for pine and 180 grit sandpaper for oak prior to staining and clear coating. The finer grit sandpaper ends up polishing the wood and doesn't allow the stain to soak in as much. Your clear coat will level out any imperfections in the wood. Your table came out great!

What table

It's awesome that you're both involved in every aspect of the build. Very few couples are open enough to each other to work on such projects together in such an efficient manner. #respect

I’ve been working with wood for over 7 years now and one of my projects is to build is a dinning room table. Sharing your project has made it a little easier for someone like me to actually have the confidence to do it. Thanks for sharing!

You guys make a great team. Also I just started sanding in between poly coats a few months ago like you did and that was a game changer for me. Table top is beautiful.

You guys seem really nice and cool, and I love the effort on this table! As a professional table maker, I can give you a few pointers for next time. Pocket hole screws are ok but you must use glue or else the table will begin to separate within a relatively short amount of time. By sanding up to 800, you closed the pores of the wood and made it unable to accept stain, next time, stop at 220! you cannot feel the smoothness of the wood anyways, because poly is a topcoat and rests above the wood. By the way, make sure you do at least 4 coats of poly on the top and bottom equally! Finally, when you attach the base to the tabletop, make sure you have slotted holes in the base to allow for wood expansion because if you do not, the table will bow or cup within a short amount of time. Please let me know if you have any questions and again, you guys seem great and good job for your first time!

WOW!! You guys do some absolutely amazing work. The cedar/ressin boards were gorgeous. Love the videos.

I love pocket hole joinery, and use it whenever I can. But in the case of a table top, I think I'd go with offset double row biscuits and glue. (and lots of clamps!) The primary reason, being to minimize any chance of splitting , warping, twisting and cupping that softwood framing lumber is famous for.

Who cares what they get views with if they are doing the job right anyway! It a crazy table.

Let me start by saying great job, especially for your first time. Also, I’m extremely jealous of your whole setup, (now) you’re able to mill it, dry it, build it, and soon be able to sell it all in one place. I agree with everything @Nathan says below, he would be a great source of intel for any future projects. I graduated with an art degree, specializing in woodworking and really started getting into furniture towards the end. I actually ended up making my bedroom suit(dresser and 2 bedside tables). I would’ve used biscuit joiner w/glue and biscuits vs screws and definitely would’ve only sanded to 220 since you’re using poly to finish it. Good job sanding in between coats of poly, a lot of people miss that step and it really helps with the final smoothness and durability. I also would’ve done at least 4 coats on the top, but that’s always something you can go back and do later. My dresser is 3ft high by 6ft wide, and after I did three coats I thought it was enough. A classmate said, “ok, how about I toss my keys on it and see if they scratch it or not, then you’ll know if it holds up to normal wear and tear.” that’s when I decided two more coats. Now, over 10 years later and still not a scratch. One last thing, since it’s a table, why didn’t you router the edges? Most table tops have at least a 1/4”, or a more decorative edge, rather than leaving it straight. Just a couple things to think about the next time you do a “big build”. Oh yea, good choice on finishing materials, that’s what I use. Some may not agree, but when I’m applying the poly I use the super cheap foam brushes. You don’t have to worry about brush strokes, bristles possibly falling out, or cleaning them. Still, great job‼️

I'm with you on the pocket holes. Much more solid platform and little to no seams. Good job guys.

I remember seeing you both have your home build. I am so happy to find out you have a channel. We just went under contract for our first home and already my husband wants to change some things😂

The table looks great and compliment the decor in the room. I personally put tarp down when staining over concrete. I understand that it is a work area and superficial but if you stain a lot it really makes the area look run down after a while. I would have done any different with the stain. It looks real good with the sorta two tone effect because of the different sanding grit. It adds just a little character that isn’t distracting at all but adds a little dimension. I would have been nervous about using pocket holes instead of biscuits and glue. You took a chance and it worked out very well. I’m inspired to give it a try.

That table turned out great! I like the way it looks with the flooring.

Looks great! I always use glue. I’d use a biscuit jointer (because I have one), or a Domino over pocket holes with the glue simply to avoid all the pocket holes under the table. I’m also a big fan of real breadboard ends. They add stability to very large tables and they are fun to make, I think they look cool too. I’m not too particular on the brand of stain, but I do like to use the staining pads during application. On soft woods (pine or alder), I use a homemade Pre-stain.

@joshportelli

Ай бұрын

Agreed, pocket holes are never the way

To answer your questions: I would have used the Kregs with glue. I also would join the pieces together upside down on a very flat surface. I think 800 is overkill but it can't hurt! I like Minwax products best. I also plug all those Kregs holes and I'd especially do it on the base pieces where they are visible and also will eventually collect dust. Beautiful table and your floors are awesome.

Used the same table top joinery on my bar top. Came out good and sturdy. Keeping the boards lined up is tough on your own. Good thing you had help. Looks great good job.

First off, Great Job!! as for the table: The stain I have come to love is Rustoleum Stains, they seam to be easier to apply and look real good. I also would have conditioned the wood prior to the stain this prevents blotchiness. The pocket-hole idea I like and its less messy than the glue-up.

^^^no doubt, the guy must work out! I’d keep him if I was her! It’s a joke people.

Just happen to come across this video and I must say that table came out great especially for never doing it before. Just a side note, there’s no need to sand to that high of a grit, depending on the wood and what finish your using 220 is usually more than enough. Your top coat will determine the smoothness of the final product. And as far as pocket holes or biscuits or dominoes, there’s no need for any of them. Glue and clamps is the only thing you need. The pocket holes are good if you don’t have clamps but it’s really just holding it together until the glue dries. And biscuits and dominoes are only used to help with alignment(which does help quite a bit) but adds very little strength to the structure. Not sure if you mentioned how you attached the top but make sure you used something that allows for expansion and contraction otherwise the top may crack or warp. Hope this helps for your next project. Great work.

It has a great handle for carrying around the house. Its pretty lightweight and slides around easy. We bought it for our daughter’s first sleepover. Breakfast was a blur - but 12 7-8 year olds fit at the table with room to spare. We used it at thanksgiving and 6 adults fit comfortably on each side plus 2 on either end for a total of 8. Super easy to clean up afterwards as well.

Wow, incredibly smooth and accessible. Oh yeah, nice table too.

The ONLY thing Id have done differently, would be fill the holes with wood putty, and probably go two tone with base and too.. but thats just me. Great job guys.

Thank you very much for the feedback. I wish I had hidden the holes on the base.

Have you considered using the Kreg plugs to fill in the holes left on the legs from the pocket hole joints? They will glue into the openings, can be sanded off then stained to match the rest of the wood and you almost don't see anything afterwards.

Thanks for the comment Stan. I do wish I had used the Kreg plugs to hide those pocket holes. My lack of wood working knowledge failed me there. I will use them on the next build.

Table came out spectacular, guys!! Great job!!! 👏

Looks great, I would have used biscuits and glue with metal C shaped bands on each end to keep it square. I also would have wood filled the seams and only gone to like 180 or 220 on the sanding. Yours looks beautiful and I hope it lasts a lifetime.
