Oh god, this is so true. I used to site-build storage sheds. My guys are shed ninjas. Two of them can level, frame, caulk, paint, trim, roof, and hang the windows and doors on one of them in a day. It was all they did. It takes even skilled carpenters three days to build something similar. And it's brutally hard work. It never failed. About three o'clock in the afternoon when it was 100 degrees, a grandson or nephew of the customer would tear himself away from Halo long enough to treat himself to a well-deserved beer and come out to observe the progress for a while. Invariably he'd tell us he and his buddy had built a shed "exactly like that one only a little bigger" in a couple hours less than it took us - armed with nothing more than a hammer and a twelve-pack. I used to ask them why they hadn't done this one and saved granny $5,000. And they never once took me up on the offer to help us finish it up.

I checked the price the table went for. $12k! Absolutely amazing result. Well done mate! PS, love your work 😁

I just had a conversation last night w another guy (who likes tools as much as I do, and he’s a science teacher/ geologist rather than a woodworker like me), we were talking about this subject for fifteen minutes or so… He was telling me a story about a trip to AK where they were taking core samples out of the Tundra. the bits they were using would dull and get bogged down bc of the silica and rock in the frozen earth, so they carried w them (while hiking to remote places) a bit of concrete in a small bucket, when the bits got dull they would run them against the concrete to expose new cutting material and it worked like a charm. he said he also uses old lawnmower blades to run grinding wheels against at home, to improve the cutting action, refresh the surface of the wheel when it gets glazed by grinding against the hard steel. anyway, good thing to keep in mind, don’t throw away that glazed, or dull grinding/ sanding tool run it on something to refresh it!

@@benjaminherr5247 i used to cut a specific type of brick that was hardened ceramic. It was used to line piping in coal plants as pressurized coal would be sent through them at 200 mph (so they claimed). Anyways the giant 20"+ diamond wheels kept going dull and come to find out if you applied too much pressure it would heat up the steel and the sparks being sent flying were the diamond chips. Other times it would further imbed them leaving the steel exposed. A quick/cheap and easy fix was to grab a paver stone and run it back and forth a few times and it would expose new diamonds extending the blades use. Ran an pneumatic bandsaw for years as well and a a cheap way to extend the blades life (if not equipped with cutting fluid) was to cut/drag a candle stick on the blade for a few passes. If cutting multiple pieces at once it kept it from binding on me, ran quieter, and imo helped cool the blade.

Cam, top tip for the glueups when doing M & T's that are so snug it's essentially a piston fit, and that would be to either drill a hole about 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch into either the mortice or the tenon, OR (preferred method) to have at least a couple of shallow vertically cut channels in the loose tenon to give the excess glue someplace to escape from - this is why wooden dowels and domino's are ribbed, it's not to increase glue surface area but to allow a way for the excess glue (and air) to escape so you don't end up with something called "hydraulic lock" - a phenomenon that occurs when there's too much glue and air in the void below the tenon and no space for it to escape from, so the loose tenon cannot "bottom out" to full depth and sits above the pocket of uncompressable glue and air. (For the readers) Hydraulic lock is pretty much the #1 reason why a M & T / domino / dowel joint that is 100% snug and good when dry fitted, just will not close after glueup without applying excessive pressure (like ratchet clamps), that normally leads to joint failure. If the joint won't close with clamps using hand pressure, you've got hydraulic lock, DO NOT force it, fix it. If you fit a loose tenon, dowel or domino into a mortice or drilled hole and as soon as you push it in, it slides out again - that's also a sign of hydraulic lock - too much glue and air stuck in the bottom, remove it, wipe some glue off and try again.

One thing most KZread wood workers don’t address is the cost of bits and blades. You can get away with a 3,5hp Porter router for $600 but you absolutely MUST be using blades that often cost more each than the router itself. Our shop table saw blades run almost $300 ea. but they can be resharpened for almost a decade while getting professional cuts every time. If the fit and finish is your goal…great bits and blades should be a priority over the ‘best’ tools.

Hi Cam, in regards to gloves: My first career (15 years) was as a welder/steel fabricator. I wore gloves almost all the time. I worked in Central Oregon and the winters were cold, steel has very sharp edges when cut, and nasty burns can happen. These were all reasons to protect one’s hands with gloves. The key is knowing where your hands are in relationship to a spinning tool and keep your distance. I then spent the next 25 years as an anesthetist in Portland. Now that I’m retired I’m doing woodworking and sometimes steel furniture making. I’ve watched dozens of your videos and thanks to your tutelage my first river table came out fantastic. Just sold it last week.

Wow, Rod. I can't think of two completely different professions than a welder/metal fabricator and anaesthetist! 😯😊

What a gorgeous piece of work! And the winning bid amount was astounding also. Thanks for your contribution to Make A Wish. A trick an old master taught me years ago when making tight-fitting repair plugs. Once you have it milled to the size you need but before you glue it in place, pop it into the oven on low temp for an hour or so. It causes the wood to contract just enough to make it easy to pop into your work, and the moisture of the glue will help expand it again once it's in place. Makes it a lot easier to put the plug in and be sure it actually seated all the way to the bottom of your cut without jamming partway down. Try it out on a piece of scrap and see if you find it as helpful as I have. Results will vary based on the density and moisture content of the wood, so experiment a bit to see what works for you.

To all the novice woodworkers out there: When it comes to glue, it really doesn’t matter whether you add the glue to one side or both. The important part is that you add enough glue. Either add a thin layer of glue to each face you’re joining, or a relatively thick layer to one side. Also consider the wood you’re using because some woods (usually soft woods, but not always) soak up more glue than others. End grain will also soak up more glue than edge grain. It’s better to add too much than not enough. If you’re getting a ton of squeeze-out, dial back the amount a little. You’ll get a feel for what enough glue is as you do more and more projects.

You might make fitting the tenon a little easier with some shallow grooves on the sides of the tenon. The reason it was so tough to remove the tenon after the dry fit was air pressure. With some shallow grooves you provide a way for the air to escape when you push the tenon in, and to relieve the suction when pulling it out. And of course it allows excess glue to squeeze out too.

Don't ever stay on one kind of woodworking, I like how you expand what you do, as in round tables, one-piece shelving, and tables as you did with this, split level desks. I wish I would have thought of doing what you do when I was in college wood shop, I would have gotten A's everywhere. I didn't stay with you today because I have seen it already.

When I went to school (I studied 3yrs to become joiner and specializing in furniture making) and we had actual theory lessons. The argument of adding glue to only one side of joining faces is based on some studies which show that more thinner the glue line/joint is, makes the bond stronger and therefore stronger joint. However, when making good glue joints you have to consider the joining faces themselves too. One sided glue joint applies better to faces which are jointed/planed which theoretically makes the best joint. If joining faces are sanded, then the glue can be added to both sides or alternatively more liberally to one side. And then there's always the cost factor. But that applies more to industrial or larger businesses. And also I don't remember how this actually applies as global dogma compared to my domestic woods here in Finland. But that's my input on this issue.

We always called that wood grain fiddle back. Really nice table, love your videos. I used to make burl and slab tables with my dad. I still do some slab tables.

The teacher in 8th grade wood shop said you only add ample glues to one side and the pressure clamping it will spread it out evenly with little spillage. If you glue both side you alway use glue than you need and there is more spillage. He said that does not sound like much buy when you work in a job shop and it takes an hour more to finish each and you use twice as many consumable. When you make 100 or 500 of them it makes a big difference. If you don't learn to be efficient now you won't get better at scale.

Great cause; well done! For those interested, the curl in the figuring of this wood is often referred to as “fiddleback” for obvious reasons. It occurs in areas of the tree that grow under stress, such as where a large bough branches off from the main trunk. The gorgeous 3D effect that occurs in fiddleback and other like type effects in wood grain is also referred to as “chatoyance”, a term used in stone masonry and gemstone parlance, for similar reasons.

do you have cheddar cheese on you?

Hey Cam, You could probably afford to lose some of those people who don't enjoy your humor. We love it. Some day I want something this beautiful!

Stunning table. I like the humor of smaller and more intimate dining. I grew up in northern Appalachia and walnut was used a lot. It, red oak, the chestnut are my favorites for nice furniture.

$10,000 or more. Hey I’ve been watching your channel for a while now and just want to say that you’re a great woodworker and I love that you’re doing this for charity. I personally don’t mind watching similar builds to previous ones and think they all turn out amazing, for what it’s worth. I hope you have an amazing rest of your day and can’t wait for the next video!

I love the figuring on this table top! Years ago, I saw an antique rifle in a shop, with a tiger maple stock. (My husband was checking out the business end of the rifle - I was looking at the wood!) That wood grain looked like you could reach right into the stock! It was amazing. This table is outstanding! Thank you!

Those end tables are fabulous. I just I've your designs and your sense of humour. Your pieces will be much sought after way beyond your lifetime. Thanks for sharing

What an amazing piece. The way the beauty of the wood jumps out at you. Excellent results and for such a great charity.

I have just one word for your table: awesome. I love it. I love your work, your tools, your skills, and your products. Really just so cool. 👍😃. I nearly forgot: thanks for supporting the Make A Wish Foundation. As a parent of a child in remission from leukemia, I know their value to the patients who get to go out and get gifted by them. They are just amazing and it is all built on donations just like yours. So thanks for that too. ❤️

For what it's worth: I'm not a woodworker, but I love watching your videos and the process of DIY-things like this. This is a skill that not many people have and it blows me away every time when I can see professionals like yourself create beautiful things from what looks like scrap. Well-done!

Funny story. I use to use the flap sanding disks on my grinder to shape my kids derby cars. While I was shaping one car, the back of the finger of my glove got caught on the back of the flap sanding disk and it pulled my finger right into the sanding disk. Got my knuckle skinned up pretty good. No major damage. The gloves I had were leather but a mesh back. I still wear gloves with work like that but I am careful of what the material of the glove is.

It's two years later, but shared it anyway. Luv your talent and attitude

Love your work and this table came out amazing! Can't wait for your next project.

$80,085 Beautiful table signed with a sharpie is kind of funny to me

@@frankierzucekjr No it's still up for auction. The bid is over $10k so far, I think.

Honestly the way you respond to your haters is kinda fantastic.

Even if I didn't like wood I'd still love your channel for the DIY engineering and social media insight. Thanks so much for sharing your work!

$4300 what a beautiful table! Also, that wood grain effect so desired by guitarists is called Chatoyancy. Have you ever thought about putting a steel rod through or sandwiching one before a glue up of two halves in order to add strength to thinner table stems?

$2200.00 minimum, that should be a starting price. After all the fine work you’ve done and for a good cause. Great job Cam.

I love your work, it's captivating and your results are stunning.

Just a suggestion, when you're doing a patch (it's actually called a dutchman) the best way to hide it is to make it organic. Meaning have the long part straight but the ends rounded, it make the seam less noticeable. Like I said just a suggestion, having worked for 15 plus years with wood I've learned how to fix my 30,000 mistakes....

I was taught to glue both pieces 60 years ago and the technique has done well for me. The only thing that’s changed are the clamps and the glue.

So much work but absolutely beautiful!!! And by the way, I loved the base as a small table before you starting shaping it. I loved the chunkiness of it. It would make a great stand alone table for a plant or a beautiful display piece!!

I know it’s two years after the event, but I really like the look of this round table. I enjoy your videos. 😊

Wow. What a great cause! And the beautiful woodwork!! Well done, SIr!!

The wood is beautiful, I'm looking forward to doing a few of these myself.

I have no idea how much a table like that will go for, I noticed it takes a lot a work and final results are top notch 👏👏👏

I _was_ going to comment that I'm sure it sold for over $2,000. Found in another comment that it went for $12,000! CONGRATS! You are such a lovely person to do this. Let alone a full 100% for charity. I would've happily bid for such a nice table. That ripple effect on the one side of the table ... just wow. Too bad it didn't cover the whole surface. :)

I hope you get at least $50K for this beautiful table! I love your sense of humor and attention to detail. I grew up in a family of perfectionist woodworkers and carpenters. Our kitchen cabinets, tables and bedroom furniture were all hand built by my Dad, so watching you work brings back many happy childhood memories.

Love this table. The texture under the foot is going to be really special for whoever gets to own this table.

$10,000.....I know this is an old video but I have to say that it looks amazing. I am a HUGE fan of your work from the North East of England, in a town called Gateshead. Please keep the videos going as long as you can, I think that your a magic worker with wood.

I really enjoy your videos and am amazed at the beauty of the wood in the finished product. I have done quite a bit of fine furniture from red oak in the Mission style. I am a 90% disabled veteran from my time in the Air Force from working on fighter aircraft. Long story short... if you ever have any of your scraps left over that you are willing to part with I would treasure having them. Let me know, if you have the time. I live in Texas.

I am bad at pricing things, so I'll say it's probably worth more than I'd ever want to spend on a table, but your craftsmanship and talent deserve every penny you can make off it. I'm just starting out with a cnc router, with a world of possibilities, specific limitations, and a tiny shop, I hope I can create some things that are at your level of quality. Keep up the good work.

Im out of my element on pricing it, BUT Id love owing it! The grain is stunning! This is something to be handed down to your kids. Priceless!

Love watching your work from all the way over here in OZ. I’m experimenting on a lot of speaker boxes designs and your videos are often a source of inspiration! Bloody beautiful stuff!

I think you should sign your work. Total works of art.

Gorgeous table. I hope it fetches a pretty penny for the foundation :)
