I went to a famous art school and I am sure they would consider this art. You are also a great craftsman, which I believe is essential to being an artist. As to your narration, I dislike totally silence, it is like keeping secrets. i prefer some explanation of your thought process from time to time , but i hate constant babbling. Your narration in this video was well done. Great table, but leaving the open slots in the middle triggered my OCD. I kept waiting for you to add glass to fill the gaps, but that is just my personal brain dysfunction. At least you acknowledged it as a possible issue for a buyer. In spite of my brain issues, it is still an exceptional piece , and thanks for not using epoxy!

As an American, I feel deeply respected for the dimensional translations. I laughed out loud at the washing machine and the Big Mac.

Honestly i like the combination of them both, but what you could do is release the video as a narrated and non narrated version. But my preference is discussing what you are planning what you are doing and then giving a break, while i love cam i do get exhausted at the endless narration, but i also get that a lot of people love it.

Freedom unit conversion (and post credit preparations) was excellent. It's a beautiful and brilliant table. You're right, enough river tables. I love the stitched look. Well done, friend.

Honestly, I think I’m in love! With your artistry, woodworking, commentary, no commentary, No epoxy! I just love it. I am a woodshop teacher in CO, USA, and I just loved watching you work and problem solve. I am definitely showing my students this video. Nothing in life this beautiful comes without a Ton of hard work! Most of the tedious work just isn’t shown in KZread videos, because we all have attention spans of goldfish! Your Joinery is beautiful. Your work is beautiful. Thank you for sharing with us! On a side note, I have never seen that larger router- it looks like a helical head of a planer or jointer turned to be perpendicular to the table. So cool!

Measurement in "Freedom Units" was the absolute best! Great build, thanks for sharing it.

I love the narration. It's nice when you can still hear the machines in the back like you did unlike some other channels where there is only voice with no breaks. Amazing table!

Letting the wood speak to you on what it wanted to be. Spoken like a true artist making his masterpiece. Jolly good show. OMG man you are so very talented. The Frankenstein stitches running down the middle of the top, & on the legs just makes this table absolutely amazing. Some may not see the connecring pieces like that, but i do. And i think it fits this table perfectly. Such beautiful work you do.

Well, I came to the comments to leave him a compliment but now I have to compliment you as well. Thank you for saying what I was going to say more elegantly.

Dude, that was amazing. Of course keep narrating. You're humble, hilarious, and absolutely brilliant at your craft. You mentioned being an artisan early in the video because you think in terms of solving problems. I had my doubts early on, but every step made me think - wow, that's a really creative and accurate way to do that. Awesome work, thank you for making the video!

To say I love the table and the workmanship is an understatement. It is obvious you have found and practice your life's passion. In doing what you do as you do it with or without narration, you add to the whole purpose of what life should be about and add beauty and grace to the world. By sharing it you bless us with your skills and express the example for those of us who care to see of honest quality and dedication to perfection. Absolutely gorgeous at all levels. If I had the resources and a proper place to display it, I would happily pay your price and consider it money well invested.

I shake my head and smile in amazement.. No one can have such skills. You are a master beyond words and not only that you have such a knowledge of setting up the machinery.

I can sympathize so much with the way you describe an idea not leaving your head until you make it, and it becoming crowded! It's tough when you have more ideas than energy to make them real.

Definitely agree. The "why" is missed when not heard. "Here, I applied this finish because... or cut like this because..." People often put captions after, and that's okay also but they don't catch the sarcasm or spur of the moment wit.

You are a next level craftsman. Keep narrating! You are also hysterical!

I loved your video. Of course your narrating was a plus. Of all of the wonderful videos I have watched in my 71 years of viewing. I love your table the most. If I could afford a table like this I would buy this one. Thank you for the pleasure of watching you create

Probably my favourite woodworking KZreadr. Great videos. Succinct and no horrible music. Much respect!

For a first time viewer from New Zealand, I found your video an excellent blend of commentary and production coupled with a great sense of humour. Loved it! And to me, you are certainly an artist with wood.

I love the narrative. Not only do I think that you are good at it, I learn so much more. And you’re fantastic!

I totally agree about the epoxy trend, it was cool and new for the first couple months/years then everyone kept doing but it was still cool, but now it feels like every “woodworking” table is just sanding a live edge piece of wood and pouring epoxy in it, then leveling and polishing it. I really appreciate the commitment to making a table that requires real skill and creativity.

Part of it is that a lot of people are buying the epoxy tables because they look really nice so they are what sell the best for the price they have to ask for the hard work and cost to make the tables so it is just the smartest way to make the money they need to continue

So far, it is one of the finest, most creative and engineering project I've ever watched. Congratulation man. What I enjoyed most about the video is that you know when to sh*t up and let us enjoy the creation of that master piece. Thank you man!!!

Beautiful craftsmanship! Your work speaks for itself but the narration aids our understanding and adds quality to this content.

Aesthetically this table is not my style. That being said, I am in awe of your vision and artistry… amazing 😮

This is one of the most inspiring videos I have seen on the YT. You are not only a skilled engineer but a very resourceful craftsman without forgetting a fabulous orator. Please keep your videos coming.

Beside the spectacular crafting process and the fascinating narration (please do more), I really appreciated the rant about the modern art. That word has been hollowed up quite a bit indeed.

I used to love making jigs and tools. I once spent most of a week in the shop making jigs for a hall table project, and came out with nothing but sawdust and some cool jigs. Wife smiled and said, "worst carpenter, ever". I did get to the table a month later. It has stood the test for almost 15 years now, despite looking somewhat whimsical. African Rosewood and oil. Wife approves. That was the last project I did before travel and life took over. I just dusted off the shop last weekend and made some preliminary sawdust. We'll see where it goes.

I stayed for the video, I subscribed for the freedom unit measurements. Great work, this build was awesome to watch

I loved having this video narrated. It made it even more enjoyable to know what you were trying to accomplish.

The table is stunning, the craftmanship outstanding and the commentary engaging. Your love for what you do is evident in every step.

The Narration was engaging and humorous. The table design is absolutely incredible. Le savoir-faire est magnifique!

Narration 100%, c'est le fun d'entendre votre intention des movements. Merci, bien fait!

I wouldn’t eat on that table. I would eat on my table next to that one and constantly wonder how good my wife’s dinner would taste eating on that table. That’s a beautiful piece of art man.

Olivier... so much to agree with and I greatly enjoy listening to what you have to say and explaining why and what you are doing. Please keep it up. Some of us are miles away from having such equipped workshops and thousands away from the equipment to do such wonderful things as you do. 🥰

Absolutely gorgeous, a great display of craftsmanship.

In a world of epoxy BS, this is real craft. Totally gorgeous and a great making of video. New subscriber.

You are a true and master craftsman. I reserve this title for you because you are humble and open-minded enough to know that you can still learn new things! Your videos are always fantastic, and your commentary audio is a welcome addition. Thanks for your many hours of work, and keep it going!

Absolutely amazing work, not one second was skipped on my phone. Can’t wait for more videos.

First video I came across of yours. Great humour. Love the line "not by essential oils and windchimes" 🤣🤣😂😂 Great video, and love that you give credit to other creators!

That table is beautifully designed and fabricated. Glad it was not just another epoxy river table - it seems to celebrate the wood even more this way! Kudos!!! I much prefer narrated videos but will be watching either way.

I don't dislike epoxy as a tool, but when I seek out woodworking videos, it's to enjoy the woodworking, not just epoxy creations that have some wood in them. It's a tool for bonding, not for cheating and getting what you want out of wood. It's why when I watched your stuff, it was hard to find other woodworking videos I enjoyed because they were so heavy on the stuff. Also without proper PPE. (I also love watching dicemaking videos sometimes and those usually use epoxy resin and go into how to safely use the stuff, which these people weren't doing). I also appreciate you talking about using proper safety, cuz again, that's not something I see often these videos.

I rarely comment on videos but yours has captivated me and inspired me into expressing my thoughts - and for what they are worth, also my opinions. First off, THANK-YOU for an amazing experience. Seeing the creation of such harmonious beauty is a joy in and of itself. IMO, a craftsman is a person with the technical know-how and the corresponding skills to implement that knowledge to a very high standard. An artisan possesses that same level of knowledge and skill and then expands upon them with the addition of imagination. Using those definitions, you, sir, are truly an artisan who creates beauty and marries it with functionality in a wonderfully harmonious manner.

When they call you an artist, tell them Alan told you to tell them you are a Master, if they ask who is Alan, tell them if you tell them you will have to make them disappear. Nice piece, just got recommended your chanel, great place for inspiration, thank you!

When I first saw the picture I clicked on it to make sure he was going to do glass or something to cover the open center but I really like it actually with it opened. It’s a classy look i think

Please continue to narrate, I absolutely loved watching as you crafted this beautiful table and explaining the various steps was very helpful. Watching you reminded me of watching my father. He was a true artist and craftsman, like you, and the similarities between the two of you were remarkable. Thank you! I look forward to watching more of your artistry.

I actually enjoyed hearing your narration. I watch Blacktail often and really like the way you both describe your process and thoughts. Great video!

Dude, this may be my favorite youtube video. Love the piece, love artistry, love your sense of humor 🤘🏼 and much would be lost without the narration. Very admirable work, sir!

Words cannot describe how great this thing came out. Just breathtaking. Wow wow wow wow

You are extremely creative. I have never seen anything like this on youtube before and I really like what you have done. Congratulations on making such a beautiful table. Thank you for showing us how you made such a beautiful piece of furniture. C'est Bon!!

Keep the narration. You are very good at talking us through a project. You seem a natural. Thanks!

The jointer/planer combo makes the most sense ever! Loved the table! Fantastic work! You and I share the same sentiment about epoxy.. love the more natural looks from using just the wood.

Amazing craftsmanship sir! It gave me so much pleasure watching your work narrated with such a great sense of humor. Thank you !

absolutely beautiful; i appreciate the narration to understand more fully each step. Thank you.

So beautiful... enjoyed watching a craftsman at work.

Loved Loved Loved watching the video. You're a magician (with great tools). The Lace table is a thing of beauty. Thanks for the inspiration! Bravo.

Stunning! I liked the mix of explanations at times and simple quiet video at other times.

Just wow! This is so elegant! I think the shape and the criss-cross of the centre is vaguely reminiscent of corset strings...so there is a mystique and femininity to it that hits the subconscious with a certain je ne sais quoi!

Truly a work of art with a huge love of wood. Many thanks for sharing the making of this table with us and the talking is most informative.

Such good attention to detail. I see a lot of these videos. This is one of the best...!!

You aren’t an artist. You’re a fecking woodworking and creative genius! Subscribed! What a lovely table. I hope it sold for a lot of money, and I’m sure it did.

The table is quite beautiful, but man those legs are GORGEOUS. The whole time you were making the table I thought the legs would be mounted the other way around like ʌ. But making the legs into a V shape makes it look even better.

Beautiful work, I really enjoyed listening to you explain all the details. Thank you for sharing.

Oliver, I've watched only two of your videos and they are the two most incredible and original woodworking projects I've ever seen! Thank you for your contribution to the craft!

You got it brother!! Perfect measurements!!!! What a wonderful table you created. And hello from Texas!

It's a nice addition you started to narrate your videos, and you are definitely and artist and an engineer, your work is truly brilliant

I have been watching creative contents on youtube for well over 8 yrs now, you are the first channel I subscribe to, I think you know why. Manifique!!

I realised that I'm a good woodworker but a master jig maker. I end up enjoying the jig making for me and my friends problems more than the project.

You are awesome asset to the wood working society. Not everyone that narrates is as good as their wood working skills, but you my friend are good at both.

Great watch, good narrative also love the sounds of tools working. Keep them both and keep being original!
