Thank you for watching! Here are the most common questions I am getting: 1. *Some version of "You can see the bolt heads in the C-channel. You should have hid them"* I agree...it would be better if you couldn't see them. This would be an easy fix. Just recess the C-channel more deeply into the slab. Unfortunately this slab was already getting pretty thin, and I didn't want to risk bursting through the top. And also...this is much more noticeable in video than it is in real life. In video I tend to get a lot of lower shots to show off the details of the table. To actually see the bolts in real life your eye has to be equal to or lower than the underside of the table. So...not a huge deal in my opinion.

Yep, definitely a simple concept that might have been "dumbed" down a little too much. Having worked customer service for decades, I grew to think of it as "The customer knows what they want, and that should be RESPECTED; but, they don't necessarily know how to get it." And, it's the latter aspect where I feel most problems occur, often producing frustration and immediate "no"s rather than realizing it's a question to work through together-exactly the approach here! When a company prioritizes meeting a customers needs rather than forcing their priorities on a customer, customer service becomes a lot less difficult.

“If he’s not happy, I will eat the cost..” As a small business owner myself, this is just what you need to do sometimes. That’s how you build a solid reputation. Great work!

I think that is one of the most beautiful tables I have seen you make... I love the way the patterns of the wood flow together, the forms in the legs and top have a beautiful and lucious simplicity, and the float gives it just the right amount of lightness. Congratulations on a truly whole piece of art.

I really like how you attached the two slabs into one. I was bit afraid in the beginning when it was looking that there might be a lake of epoxy in between them but this was great. I also thought that the coffee table was nice, bit like what Shaun did in his riverless river table. The client doesn’t happen to be Cam’s Scott?

You made the right call on the tabletop layout; the overlap is a great way to utilize the smaller slab pieces while still making the piece look cohesive. Great work dude!

I really love the geometry of the tabletop. That's not to downplay the artistry of the other aspects that I know are a lot harder and more impressive, but seeing it assembled made the edge geometry really stand out as something I'd want in my home if I had the space for it.

As always i admire your work! Video/editing is always impressive along with your projects congrats on a million what an incredible accomplishment

Well Done! You’re humble, talented and real. You put so much effort into your videos and it’s noticed.

I’ve been woodworking for about a decade. My advice is “build something that matters”. If it’s a tiny box or an entire library, it doesn’t matter as much as if the project MATTERS to you. If you care about the project, you will stress over the details, and that’s what it takes to learn in this craft.

Great video. Thank you for the work, including the actual table and the video. Well done!
