This table is really well designed. Every piece is clearly labeled, kzread.infoUgkxn94T8Mu1iMnsLCMNOI9srXSsLkI4JXKW and the instructions are perfectly displayed, so it's really hard to mess up the assembly. The hardware is likewise clearly labeled. If I had a power driver, assembly time would have been cut in half, but I didn't mind the light workout. My only qualm is that is that the lift top is wobbly in between its open and closed positions, but that's really a minor complaint. For the price, you really can't get much better than this, hence the five-star review. I use it primarily for my wireless mouse and keyboard so that I can use my PC from the couch. Storage is nice. I'm totally happy with this purchase.

I love your videos on a couple of levels. With the sound turned down they are just beautiful to watch. With the volume up the commentary is great for pointing out some of the finer points of the build. And NO thdump thdump inane dance music to spoil it all. Thank you for sharing your work.

That little trick with the dust and super glue for the corners was so clever, I loved it. Thanks for the video!

Was suprised to see that subcount.. Was expecting 500k at least. Videos are well constructed, educational and organized. I really hope you get the exposure you deserve. Amazing work.

All your vids are a step above most maker build videos. Especially like the tips such as blue tape vs tyvek tape, and to remove tape after setting but before curing. Have spent sooooo much time fixing builds after that issue. Your tutorials are rich in that stuff and the details show in the final vid. Kudos. Also, keep choosing phenomenal wood!

Hey Cam, very nice videos. Have now seen almost every one you made. Very spectacular tables you make. Hope that you will continue to make videos for a long time. Just a small sugestion to this type of waterfall table, you could have made the "long" legpiece flush with the top as well as the "short" legpiece. Then you would have had 2 in 1 table. Tall w. small tabletop or Low with larger tabletop. Really enjoy to watch your videos. Greetings from Denmark.

Second piece will be a epoxy river coffee table. Never worked with epoxy, so curious how it will look. I let my wife choose the design and color because see wants one for us. hahaha.

I have, it’s pretty cool! And super hard.

When you have a woodworking workshop bigger than my house, I do not think you qualify as DIY. But still great quality videos.

Didn't hear a question during this video, so I'll just start off by saying thank you for sharing your craft and that you do really impressive work! I wanted to ask about your use of the track saw to cut your 45-degree bevels on the larger pieces. I have yet to get a truly great 45 bevel cut out of my track saw, and wanted to know was your 45-degree bevel stop on the Festool perfect out of the box, or did you have to adjust it so that when you move the bevel adjustment all the way over it hits a perfect 45? Or, do you just move it over and then tinker with the blade until you can get a perfect 45 (or slightly greater than 45*) and then lock it down? I can get close by using this second method, but never really perfect. It's hard to get the 45-degree side of my square into the short angled area created by the blade and base of the track saw, so it can take forever to get the correct bevel angle and it's definitely not repeatable after I reset the saw blade to square and try to get the same angle again. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks again.

Very nice. you should be pleased

@BlacktailStudio

Can you explain more on using the dowel technique. What tool(s) would you need for the angle drill?

@meperson

3 жыл бұрын

This might be too late, but here is my experience. There are few doweling jigs that support 45 degree miter cuts. If you want thru/exposed dowels Rockler has affordable one. Pretty cheaply made and doesn't help with alignment, you need accurate miter cut and clamping solution. I used it for small miter and it is just OK. There is Doweling Wizard but I have no first hand experience. When I had to make six foot miter I found Dowelmax jig. It is not cheap but still way cheaper than domino. It worked flawlessly even with my not very accurate circular saw cut. I put eight dowels with perfect accuracy. It showed me where to sand to fix my inaccurate cut. Final miter is as good as it gets despite using very simple hand power tools only. Highly recommend.

Just thinking about different finishing oils - have you ever tried Sam Maloof? Ever since I discovered his products, I've used nothing else. I made my black walnut bedroom set over 20 years old now, and still looks great (this reminds me though, it's about time to refresh it with a coat of oil/wax ;-). Great content as always! Cheers.

Cam, I'm thinking I might want to do this similar build in Eastern Cedar since it's such a small piece. I think cedar may give it a bit more appeal for my location.
