I'm almost 65. I still have ALL of my hair. My father had and Brother has, MPB. The secret was given to me by a barber 45 years ago. Tea Tree Oil. Massaged into the scalp once a week. Inexpensive and Very effective. Give it a whirl. All you have to lose is your hair. My 56 year old brother couldn't be bothered and now he's bald.

Love your work more than Blacktail Studio. Top looks great. Would like to see what would happen with the spiral base if done as natural wood instead black textured finish. Maybe the higher grade plywood to do that would cost too much $$$.

You would not believe how many folks tell me they love my work more than Black Tail Studios!

I loved the base... right up until you put the bondo on. It would have been waaaaay more beautiful if you had sanded it smooth (as you did) then stained it a natural color letting all the laminations show proudly through. I wish I had the money to commission you to do just that, I loved it.

The finished base looks like he just painted over some osb with water based paint. I'm not a fan of it either, but it's easy to ignore with a table top like that.

The base didn't even look like wood. I don't get the appeal either, personally. It was a lot of work to just cover up.

Normally I prefer natural wood. But I think the base needed to be painted rather than stained. The star of the project was the cottonwood and the black base really set it off. I think it’s stunning. I don’t care for the texture though.

It is a very good book for beginners as well as for those that are already into kzread.infoUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt A very good basic ebook to keep as a reference too. I like it and the way the subject matter is presented. It has humor and that helps with the reading.

Cottonwood is good. The top is gorgeous. I love the smoky contrast of the epoxy and how that ties in the base. The base design really adds the finishing touch to the overall look. Kudos.

Love the illusion of the black running up the base, into the top. Looks like a beautiful, shiney, black pool. Cottonwood is good.

I usually don't like the light wood finishes, but man!!!!!!!!!! That table is gorgeous!!!!! The two contrasting colors looks great together!!!!!!!!

I love this table, although if I was having you build it for me, I would probably prefer to not hide the plywood base with that "textured black" finish, which incredibly looks a lot like pickup truck bed liner.

This is exactly what I thought “ I got your proprietary textured Finish for half cost over here .”

I love when the cottonwoods release their seeds, it's beautiful to watch them all float around

Beautiful!! I do have a cottonwood slab planning for a huge dining table until the black walnut is the most sought around here. The project sat for over 2years. After watching this, I get inspired on work on it again. Thanks to you brother!

I thought the legs looked so cool when you were putting them together. But once you blended them, pow! Gorgeous. The entire table is great.

yea i wasn't too sure about the top until i saw it with the base really completes it.

Prior to the advent of all those cool CNC tools with high-speed cutting heads, cottonwood was hated because it was so soft and difficult to work decently. You really couldn't plane it into useable lumber for cabinetry. It's a royal pain to turn because you get so much tear out. Yes it looks nice but you can't get a decent surface on it. This, however, is spectacular.

Absolutely stunning, a marvellous table. Bravo!

That table is beautiful. Thx for sharing.

This build is STUNNING!! Gorgeous design and effect!

As a tip for pouring epoxy in a dusty environment, use a spray bottle and lightly spray around the area you'll be doing sanding and the dust will stick to the water and not fly back up in the air with a gust of wind

So happy I came across this video. I grew up in Central Kansas where cottonwood trees are in abundance. I've always been told they were a junk tree and couldn't be used for anything other than a bonfire. I'm happy to see your beautiful table showing off how beautiful theses trees really are!

Cottonwood is GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD! The table is a work of art.

A suggestion for the “bowties”. Have the CNC drill two ¼" holes in each bowtie; each hole should be the same distance from the exact center of the bowtie, say 20", and the two holes should be one-twentieth of that distance from each other. Call the two holes L and R. When you put the first two bowties on the center dowel and line them up, the holes will also line up. Rotate the top bowtie around the center dowel by 6° and now hole L on the top bowtie should line up with hole R on the bottom bowtie. Put a little wood clue on a short bit of ¼" dowel and pound it into the hole. Tack the bowtie in place with the nail gun. Repeat this process with every subsequent bowtie. Now, the twist of the table stand is EXACTLY consistent and cannot shift.

That base is epic!!! Such a cool idea.

Thanks brother!! One day you’ll have to teach me how to properly power carve!

I love this table....I even managed to figure out the base before you said it. Gorgeous!

Wow, absolutely gorgeous!

Cottonwood is good. Love this table. Super figured, super clean look. You’re super talented man! Can’t wait for the next one!

I agree this wood looks amazing, great base too, beautiful project that fits perfectly in the room you showed as well !!!

Simply Gorgeous!

Incredible! Looks so amazing!

I liked the base more without covering up the wood. I second the opinion that cottonwood is beautiful. Also, the cottonwood seeds are underused. ...Shoulda gathered them up and put them in a vacuumed epoxy to finish out the slab, maybe with a luna moth or other ornate Saturnid moth that feeds on cottonwood.

Cottonwood is good and looks great with the variation. I’ve used it to do book matching in builds and turned out amazing. Great work with this build and being innovative with the base! 👍🏼

Simply stunning!

I liked how the ply edges looked in the spiral. Beautiful.

14:30 I love this moment when I finally get a peek at his vision. This is when it all clicks and "the nod" of satisfaction hits. So well done.

Thanks for the build. I happen to live in an area that has big cottonwood trees, and I have been fortunate to get ahold of some very large logs. I agree that it can become absolutely beautiful pieces.

Beautiful. Thank you for sharing

this table is spectacular ...start to finish...

"Cottonwood Is good" ... and an amazing piece. Unsolicited tip from an ol' "plastic" boat builder - I had to check out what Odie's oil is and I may just try it on the teak trim on my boat (tired of teak oils with no UV resistance). As far as the epoxy fill finish; most poly plastics can be buffed to a glass smooth surface using car buffing and glazing compounds - the non wax types. Putting a sheen of organic carbon based oil, especially oils that use a thinning agent like styrene or acetone, on the plastic bits to shine them up, over time, will react chemically to most styrene and vinyl, and most "esters" and epoxies, causing them to either pit or haze over. It can take a while but it will happen. For the size area you have, you can start with 320 dry sanding, one pass of red compound, one pass of white compound and a final glaze. If you use a 200 to 300 RPM, 7 inch buffer it would take all of 20 minutes to finish with 5 minutes to spare for a smoke and a cup of coffee to stand and admire how shiny it looks.

Gorgeous table. Love the pedestal, it is so cool. Also it goes really well with your floor. Love this look. ❤😎 Hi from sunny Florida!

Stunning design, stunning execution!!! A beautiful AND unique piece of furniture.

COTTONWOOD IS GOOD. I absolutely LOVE the table, especially the base. I would be so proud to have this in my home ❤

Very well done. Consider the same base using a high quality plywood and leaving it natural or a light stain to see the layering or different woods layered, like the wood seen in cutting boards. Purples, browns, and lighter woods for a cutting board colored table and base too.

Very nice indeed young man. I am a carpenter/sculpture from Scotland. Unfortunately, in my day we didn't have CNC machines and had to do it the old fashioned way by carving from a solid chunk of real wood. By the way, if you are interested, if you want a textured look like your friend did, get yourself some textured artex/plaster rollers and then cover your creation with bondo/cataloy then go over it with the textured roller and you have a textured piece.

Simply beautiful.

Wow!! Absolutely amazing work!!

Dude that base looks like truck rhino liner, I love it!! Also glad your on keeps, you don’t want to have Komar hair lol 😂

Love How it Turned Out. So Curious What That Original Step Pattern Would've looked like possibly for a piece with a bigger glass or epoxy finish.

The title gripped me. Most hated tree … Most beautiful wood. That said, I’ll Like, Listen, and Watch. 😊

Cottonwood can be beautiful but man it stinks up the shop.

Rub paraffin wax on your jointer table and fence (and other tools) to make pushing pieces through much easier. I always have a small block of paraffin within reach of my table saw, planer, jointer. You don't have to cover the entire surface, just rub a zig-zag or other scribble pattern.

Wow, this is stunning 🤩 great job

Little SketchUp tip here, when you pull up the arc or circle tool, you can change the number of segments in the circle to be higher in order to get smoother looking circles instead of the standard 24 segments which tends to look a bit rough kzread.info/dash/bejne/nH2Jo9d7Zru5eqg.html

Out of all tables I have seen made with epoxy resin this is the one I want and like the moast.

I have some cottonwood that I was planning to make a table with. I wasn't sure how it would turn out because I've never worked with it, but since nature provided it for me to work with, I thought it would probably turn out amazing. After watching this, I'm sure of it! I also have a great idea for that build now. Once I finish it, I'll tag you in the video. I need to finish building my website before I get around to building that table. I'm also waiting for better weather since I don't have a shop.

Beautiful just the way it is, your design

I use a down cut spiral bit with a ramp and I no longer need tabs. Saves a ton of time. The down cut lets the sawdust keep the part in place.

SPLENDID work! Congratulations!

Wow it's beautiful. Great job

wow, final piece is gorgeous 👌

Changed my mind about cottonwood. I’m already running ideas through my head for a project.

That is gorgeous, so striking. 😍

Beautifull! Outstanding work!

Wow! Just stunning!

WOW! That looks amazing!

Brilliantly beautiful

Looks good the second time as well. Thanks.

Cottonwood is good. That base is great! Thanks for an excellent video, Jonny Makes Sawdust.

Great work. Love it. Thanks for sharing.

A very beautiful Table, I do love top of the Table but I was pleasantly surprised how lovely the base is, the finish is overwhelming. UK.

The cottonwood pops really nice with the oil!

Stunning piece ! ! !

Absolutely Beautiful

ABSOLUTLY BEAUTIFUL !!!! I really enjoyed you video.

Beautiful table, and beautiful wood! I'll have to check out Cottonwood in the future for one of my table projects.

A lovely work of art amazing.

Wowwwww the table is great but de base is creative in big words, awesome, A+!!!

Amazing. Great work brother.

Turned out BEAUTIFUL! Cottonwood is Good.

Absolutely beautiful

Truly beautiful!

so lovely....perfect in that room!

When stabilized it makes beautiful knife scales too.

I love the way you made the base for that table its a beautiful table just like all ur other projects

Love the top! That wood is beautiful.

Natural color of the wood is the Best, with combination of Black!!!☝☝☝❤❤❤

Your table is gorgeous !

Totally awesome looking table!

I really like this table and the wood is beautiful

Fantastic, I wish I had access to cottonwood slabs like that. Be proud, it turned out spectacular

Amazing beauty. I love how you created the double helix.

Stunning.

Absolutely beautiful !!!!

The base is an amazing idea

Beautiful table! I love the grain of the wood! Cottenwood is good. I have mimosa trees, they’re beautiful, but they shed their flower and then you have million tiny trees trying to grow all over your yard!

Amazing table!

Very unique and stunning!

Hated the thought of using ply with such a good project, but it looks AWESOME!

Cottonwoods are gorgeous trees. We have one here in MN that is over 5' diameter at base. Such a beauty. Towering. Shimmering. Graceful.

I love cottonwood trees. Reminds me of home.

That is a beautiful table! Great job! Cottonwood is good.

Stunning!

Wow! That is a nice table. I usually despise cottonwood, I'm from Colorado, but this table has me rethinking that. Nice job!

Especially like the nice base. Good work.
