The table looks amazing; but even more amazing is that the workers have all ten fingers - and ten toes!!!

I guess when their lungs give out from exposure to dust and finishing materials they get discarded and no one counts how many toes, eyes, fingers they have and checks if they hear well or not.

I bought this as a gift for my friend kzread.infoUgkxcZqgZ8Ynkiz5n_LxIWRlAicuzmz5kCHG who is just starting out in the world of wood work. He loves it!! There is a great section on different wood and what to use for what kind of job and a similar section for tools as well. The projects in it are things you probably would have a go at with clear instructions, pictures, videos and diagrams throughout. Great for a beginner/amateur wood worker.

The level of personal safety protection is astounding. 😮

Beautiful table . It’s probably just a cultural thing , but I’d have filled those holes with epoxy rather than leave them like that , but still a lovely chunky piece 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

@@ibgeorgeb A lot of craftsmen will use C-Channel metal that you then have to router into the base of the table. It is fairly complicated and will look bad if not done accurately…so the idea of using the kerf of your saw blade at 45-degrees and inserting the angle iron is a great time saving idea.

A beautiful table, but it is not made of old railway sleepers but of wood obtained from the dismantling of old wooden ships. The holes visible in the boards are left by the screws connecting the hull planks with the frames, there are also visible holes left by snails, known as shipworms, which are eating wood submerged in seawater. Kudos to the carpenters :-)

I agree with Gary--these guys are definitely craftsman. Did someone treat these pieces with creosote? If so, they should keep in mind that creostoe is carcinogenic and wear protective gear. My grandfather was a cabinet maker who worked with a variety of solvents and finishes along with repurposed wood. He died from a brain tumor.

I think these are old boat timbers, and by the look if it Red Lead would be a bigger issue.

Great job of reusing old wood, not letting it go to waste, and not cutting down fresh wood. First rate workmanship -- mix of traditional techniques and modern power tools.

Ehm... not sure how old those are supposed to be, but if that's the wood used right under the train tracks, you are working with some of the most contamonated materials you can get your hands on as a woodworker. There is a reason why they hold up so long. It's not only the initial treatment, but also tons of fungicides that are used to keep the trainlines free of wild growth. The table is kinda nice, but... heck no, I wouldn't want that in my house.

Bonjours Messieurs une magnifique table en bois recyclé 😮 bravos à vous soyez fières de vôtres super travail ❤ Bravo d'un français qui demeure à Toulouse 🎉 en occitanie👍

Is the wood treated? The train track ties here are treated with creosote. They wouldn't be safe to use at all. They must be from something else. Maybe ship docks or something with boats. There was boats and docks at the used lumber yard.

Reclame wood, looks great and very rustic. Many in the UK would love that table

Luckily no train sleepers, the creosote in them would make them totally unfit for usage indoors. I am always amazed that no people are injured while making those vids, watching the total disgarding of safety measures.

Making Table From Old Train Sleepers Wood, and jet all the work is being done on the ground... But beautiful product👍👍

I saw some holes that were ahapes made by an aquatic worm in the wood (sure to be nice and dead now), so I doubt that this wood was from railway sleepers, more like a marine environment. Still I did not see any deep cleaning or pesticide treatments which might have had me worried. Good strong table and the wood has plenty of character. It looked good and seemed to be built sturdily.

I wonder how many nails and metal anomalies are in that wood, and how many hours are spent to locate them and remove them, or how many tools/blades etc are destroyed when "finding" hidden pieces of metal. Hardly seems worth the trade off - unless they are getting the wood for dirt cheap - and I do mean pennies ...

power tools and flip flops....LOVE IT

I want one....with chairs to match.

Nice work! Did your friends think you were crazy when you came to the shop with a pile of old railway sleepers? Lol.

Very very impressive Its a sad day when you don't; learn something new. Love the angle iron fillet.

The table might not be pretty, but it will serve it's purpose many, many years to come. Nothing cheap about it. Job well done...

For the dining table you should have filled the holes to make it neat.

Beautiful!

Fantastic jigging in that shop. They could trim off the edges off of whole tables😃 Beautiful❤

Paráda! Už budu ve Vietnamu, taky si takovej udělám.

Nice result, but this kind of old wood take a hard toll on the tools as it is likely to be full of sand and there is always the risk that you missed a nail. The table will stand for hundreds of years and you can always seek refuge under it in case of earthquakes.

So much lighter and softer than Australian railway sleepers, we would almost consider that soft wood.

It’s a beeeaauutiful table. Love the added ironwork too! Well done👏.☘️👍

Railway sleepers are the best! I used to make clocks put of it

I like the Health & Safety compliant flip flops

I prefer this to an epoxy filled in table any day of the week. Would have liked to have seen how the top is ultimately affixed to the frame or is it just keep in place with its own weight and a couple of guide blocks.

Not teak. These are Vietnamese fishing boats. In northern Vietnam most fishing boats are often made from Dipterocarpaceae family, like hopea, shorea and vatica genus. Ta-khian wood is commonly used for boats.

I love wood, and that is a beautiful, functional dining table. I would be very proud if I had created that table. From unused scrap wood to beautiful furniture!

Amazing work! I just finished filming a video where I refinish a painted mid-century table. Keep up the good work 🙏🏻

Hi guys, I love witching your work. I think you could make twice as much of products of the same material if you cut it into thinner planks, like 3cm. This is old weathered material so I gues it will not deform afterwards. Moreover you'll be able to expose the most preserved material from inside.

Bravissimi falegnami !! un cordiale saluto da Luciano il perugino (Italia) 😀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀

This is recycled ship timber, not train sleepers. Looks like white oak.

This Dining table could be much better if the wholes were filled properly

It amazes me that they all have complete sets of fingers and toes. That shop looks like a death trap. Flip flops, salvaged wood full of rusty metal bits, no blade guards and sanding creosote soaked wood with no masks.

Não eram traves de comboio.... se notarem no inicio do vídeo era madeira de barcos!! Isso sim é do melhor!!

Muy buen y bonito trabajo,saludos desde MEXICO.

Could make a good work bench. I’d probably drill out all those holes and plug them with some of the scrap. I’d sand it all down with at least 4 different grits of paper. Just uneasy with the reclaimed wood, unsure on what’s been treated with over time. Looks good

Great job congratulations only thing boot needs to be wear no sandals.

Are the holes part of the charm? makes it look authentic!

Excellent job with great skills shown by the various craftsman . The look is called distressed timber . This is very much sort after , by the Wokey Hipster Set in the west .

Those aren't RR ties, which are square in cross-section and much shorter (~6 feet). These may be bridge timbers, though. Nasty stuff, as most are treated with creosote.

RU sure those are sleepers? Why are all the existing holes drilled lengthwise & why all the bolts?
