In this video I'm building a custom sofa table / side table / hall table/ bookshelf piece. So it's a bunch of woodworking projects all rolled into one. Kinda. I guess this piece is pretty specific to my furniture needs, but I'm sure there are other people in similar situations, so hopefully this video can give those people some ideas that they can adapt to their needs/situation.

The author does like to kzread.infoUgkxkNYRBJuiJ6EwD-tQSAlxg0eFKsnR2cgz from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. As another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us don’t have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we won’t be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.
Thanks for pulling back the curtain and showing some of struggles of assembling odd structures. The last half of the video had a very different feel from your usual style and helps us understand your process beyond story telling. It was nice to be along for the ride, not just a tour.
The "You're good" part reminded me of The Office. "Green means go. So I know to go ahead and shut up about it. Orange, means orange you glad you didn't bring it up. Most colors mean don't say it."

This is one now one of my favorite videos from you guys because of the part showing the assembly. The struggle is real and I'm glad you guys showed some warts. Hopefully the rest of us will feel better knowing that woodworking isn't just the look of the final piece, but the struggle to get to that point. Thanks!

I've had a table like this in my head for 5 years... I'm soooo glad you built it, looks awesome and is just quietly efficient. Thanks!
Loved seeing you trying to figure out assembly on your own, and installation with your wife. Comforting to know that even very skilled fine woodworkers go through this process of trial and error.
so simple yet so elegant, i think its the first time time i see some "behind the camera" material, it was fun and gave me a bit more confidence.
Great way to use some space that you regularly wouldn't, great stuff! =)

And the knockdown joints could be connected to a straight scrap with joints to keep them aligned during assembly, serving the same role as the clamps. The same scrap could separately be used to align the mating set of shelves. This would allow assembly of units while on their sides, so you're not fighting gravity. And they'd still fit together.
Love it 👍

Is that sofa a Hughes from Joybird? That's what reverse image search points to. It's gorgeous! I'm thinking about replacing my couch and this one is outstanding. And not all that expensive.

Wow, that looks really great. Great project. Is your sofa by Modway?
For design aesthetics, the sharp edges look great. For having kids running by, champfer the edges and corners.
Hi Chris, love the build. I just listened to episode 58 of the podcast so I'm not sure if anyone has replied to you yet regarding the tile things you used to play with they're called tangrams. Hope this helps. Big fan.
Great video. Where is that sofa from?
Cool stuff. Is that sketchup?
I'm sorry for commenting being only halfway through the video, but that melting plastic cup reminded me of when I went to art school and the teacher made a huge measuring mistake when mixing epoxy. It started smoking like crazy and he had to take it outside and pour it out on the ground. For a moment we thought the epoxy would catch fire and burn down the school! Alright, back to watching the rest of the video 😃
Great unit, Chris. Just one question. Why didn't you cut the bevel on the ends of the leg board before you ripped them apart? I'm sure there's a reason so fire away. Take care. Bill

Hi guys, nice work but let me give you a advise, with all my repect, try putting the bookshelf on the opposite side, because that kind of bookshelf is designed for that, it helps to delimit the space by creating a new area, the way it is you put loses usefulness, regards !!!

Since these shelves were designed to come apart into two individual units, I would have assembled them individually, each on their side, then connected them together into the L shape once in place in the room.
@Foureyes.Furniture
Жыл бұрын
I considered that. The problem is. The connecting ends need to be positioned perfectly in space, or when you try to make the L you’ll have gaps.
Next time instead of blocks to hold spaces could you not just reverse your clamps to push the force outward instead of contracting inward?
i am gonna fumble through and proceeds to complicate his own life after he made the two parts detachable via knock-down hardware :D - love you Chris
Did anyone else realize instantly that he didn't place the braces/legs the same as he did in the design? I don't know why but I feel like it would have been slightly more stable. Design. \ / Final product. \ \ Awesome project though. I may have to give this one a try at some point.
I think you could have assembled the one shelf to the legs, then pull the other shelves apart using your knock-down hardware to put them into the legs. Or have assembled the two shelves independently then assembled with the knock down hardware.
@Foureyes.Furniture
3 жыл бұрын
A version of that could work. The difficulty would be that you'd have to have the legs in the perfect position so that in the end you don't end up with gaps in 1 or 2 of the 3 areas where your shelves meet. Not sure if that makes sense. But it would be very hard to be that accurate.
