You should not use your miter gauge with the fence like that for cutting those small pieces, if you screw up pushing it there is a high chance of kickback if the piece gets loose. You should setup a block at the beginning of the fence, so you can reference off that, and then there is no risk the small parts get pinched against the fence.

@@jjeshop It would not take longer, you just need to setup a block against the fence before the blade, that you can butt up against, this way there is more room between the fence and the blade and the pieces can't get stuck. I'm sorry if I'm not clear, english is not my first language :/

I'm seriously amazed he didn't get kickback, that was a truly dangerous setup. I taught shop for 7 years with no injuries in my classes, and would never have let a kid make a cut like that. That's how you become a 9-fingered human, or in Morley's case, get an ice pick in the stomach when the piece kicks

We kept finding we needed a folding table. This is so easy to store. kzread.infoUgkxStL0QRChBju4aQlnTrRgBZvafFog0KU3 Opening and closing is easy as well. It has a great handle for carrying around the house. Its pretty lightweight and slides around easy. We bought it for our daughter’s first sleepover. Breakfast was a blur - but 12 7-8 year olds fit at the table with room to spare. We used it at thanksgiving and 6 adults fit comfortably on each side plus 2 on either end for a total of 8. Super easy to clean up afterwards as well.

I love that you take us through the whole process of making and selling! I think for a lot of newer creators and makers they expect things to sell quickly. How fast a piece sells isn't always a good measure of quality or desirability. I still think this piece sold quickly but others seeing how you changed up the marketing of it when you didn't get your initial desired results was great!

Please be careful with epoxy. I found out the hard way that you need to be using a respirator if around it, and you need to let it cure in an area you aren’t going in. It’s a dangerous chemical. Sawing it is the same, incredibly dangerous if not being careful. Fabulous work though! Just be safe

​@@Acacklingrugbug resins give off VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) aka a "smell" or gas (that sometimes can't be smelled) that is dangerous to inhale for long periods of time. So that's why it's best to work with it outside or in a place with lots of continuous ventilation. Also, because while it cures, it gives off heat (exothermic) as it reacts and the VOCs increase. That's why you're supposed to wear a respirator if you're working with it inside with poor airflow

With Deep pour epoxy you could have just poured in one go. With Total Bot Thick set You can pour up to 3” in one go. Also just pour the whole lot from the bucket like you finally did. Epoxy is like water and will find its own level.

Great video Morley! I like that you're showing people what can be accomplished without a huge professional shop.

This project was great. I’ll sound like a broken record, but I’ll say it again. Please try to sell this anonymously first. I know you want to sell these projects ASAP, and you go to your social media first, but PLEASE try selling it anonymously first for lets say a week, and if doesn’t sell - list it on your socials. When you did these projects first, that’s what you did, and it was much more fun.

I thought the whole point of showing cost break down and “seeing” how much he can sell it for is for us, so if we want to do the same, we can expect around same result.

@@WolfCatBirdPigMan The chief problem is that he can sell it more because he's trading on his popularity more than the work itself. If I make a drawing and sell it, I'll probably get some money for it. But if a famous artist made the same drawing and sold it, they'd get a lot more for the exact same drawing. I wouldn't care, but in these videos when he says "I turned free wood into a $2000 table", there's an implied "...and you can too!" in saying that. But that's just not true unless you have a somewhat popular KZread channel. That's why I dislike when he makes videos like this. I love seeing him make stuff... I love seeing him solve problems... I just wish he'd stop acting like the reason he can sell them for so much is because of the quality of the work itself. And let's say I'm a person who doesn't understand that he's "trading on fame", I make this same table, and can only sell it for $300 (just over cost). That would dissuade me from wanting to try again, and make me seriously doubt my capabilities.' The reason I think he ignores comments like this is because he's afraid that we'd be right.

Love this. The contrast between the wood and the resin really works. I’m planning out a oak and white resin herringbone table. Similar idea to this.

Nice video, but be careful when using white epoxy, it might begin to turn yellow over time. I have no personal experience, but I have seen videos where it happens to white dye and pigments in several different mediums. Most people recommend adding a slight blue color to combat the yellowing.

Fairly, though, that router sled wasn't cheap and his track saw set up is like a grand. You **never** need "big, expensive" tools for 99% of what you see on these channels. All the good tools let you do is whatever you're capable of doing, just faster and more efficient. Trash or treasure in minutes instead of hours. It's never the tools.

Great build! I admire your creativity.

What a beautiful table, you are really talented.

Amazing video. Thanks for sharing. I've watched some parts multiple times. Only now I noticed that I didn't give the video a like/thumbs up and that i didn't write a comment. I want to thank you for the free file for 3D printing. I don't own a 3D printer and I don't know anyone who has one in my neighbourhood, so I decided to have it printed out by a commercial 3D printing company. Including postage I paid 18 Euros (aprox 20 USD for it) Maybe way too expensive, but It gave me already a lot of fun. It was a challenge to make triangles exactly fitting into the template but in the end I managed. The template taught me to be patient and work precisely. Now I have about 200 triangles (I didn't count them) so I can start to be creative. I'm not going to make a table-top with it. I'll start with some small items. My head is full of ideas now. I only need the time to realize them.

Awesome project and it turned out amazing! Quick tip...use a bit of CA glue in your threaded inserts. It will ensure they are nice and secure!

That router sled is more of a jointer than a planer. A planer makes the two surfaces parallel. A jointer makes the surface square. Joint first, plane second.

One of the best table creations I have seen on KZread. I do have a question though: Why not wait longer to sell the table? You could work on other projects and then leave it listed for 1-2 weeks before trying again. Is there a reason to wanting to sell it so fast? Seems like you could make some extra money if you wait for a good offer.

Not sure about a kid using the table saw as common😂 but yeah that was probably the most risky cut I’ve seen on KZread as kickback only requires touching the back of the blade and he was creating a pivot point by using an ice pick.

Dude this looks amazing! Such a cool design. Next time you want metal legs hit me up, my husband makes them. We know a powder coating guy in town who can paint them any colour you want!

Definitely helps to widen your market. The big thing that sells this kinda stuff I feel like, is when it happens to go perfectly with someone's interior design/decor theme. It's also unique and has a story behind it which is really cool. Like if someone has a lot of wood and white/light colors in their home, this could go perfectly. But if they have black and darker colors then it just won't work even as much as they might like the design. So it's basically a combination of finding the right person who it's perfect for, who can also afford it. Not saying to get greedy, but your work is unique and you should be able to determine your own worth. Also when something is perfect for someone and one-of-a-kind, and they already have 2k to throw at a coffee table, it's quite likely they would spend more. You sold that within about a week was it? Definitely could get more than 2k out of it if you waited a bit longer. Another way I feel its reasonable to justify high prices for one-of-a-kind pieces, is that your work is limited, and the person willing to pay the most for it is likely the person who wants it the most. So by setting the price higher you are giving an opportunity for someone who really really values it, to have a chance to own it. I know that's not true in every case but I feel for the most part it is.

GRAND-TASTIC ! Now go split the frame and make a rectangle version . Thinner piece means less resin on next one. Don't forget to give your friend $79.99 for the teak wood 😄😉
