Funny story, I made a side table for a client that I had to hold onto for a bit. My daughter used it for a nightstand after she got home from college for the summer until my client picked it up. I tell her find a design she likes and I’ll build it, and she sends the thumbnail from this video. I’m like I know who that dude is, I watch all his videos lol. She wanted 1x for the top instead of 2x, but that’s the only design change we made. She’s loving it in her room.

Great color mix with the Thompson. What color stain did you use on these.

They would look amazing painted.

I've always herd this but thanks for confirming it . I just paid for the real one (for extra battery) for my new Z8.

How much do you charge for the planter when you sell them

Stopped watching cause i dont have $5k+ in tools.

How was that table finished? Maybe if it were completely encapsulated with good quality polyurethane varnish I would have prevented any wood movement

If only I could afford the table saw, ive been collecting tools for about 4 years and finally just bought a miter saw.

I love your job. Thank you for teaching us.

Maybe the most obvious question here, and one I'm sure that's been asked quite a few times already.... I'm pretty sure there are different LENGTHS of 2 x 4's, eh? So ... How long, brother? Yes, I'm that problem child who thinks I may not be able to build that nightstand out of a 6' 2 x 4.

Wishing you good health and many creative works

2 fence pickets I put 4 together over the weekend. Posted them on marketplace. I put my twist on them and painted the legs and top trim black. In 10 days, I sold 30 plus 6 custom planters. As a hobby, this was easy money, $1050. Thanks for the awesome video.

You never said how long the 2x4s were that you used

Easy breezy, thanks Buddy know what everyone in my family is getting for birthdays and Christmas. 😊

3) 2x4s and a wood working shop full of tools

what's the best way to make a stopper for when the drawer is pulled so the whole thing don't fall out from the front

I like the project overall. I just think saying making it beginner friendly then immediately onto a tablesaw is 2 massively different things. I see a table saw and immediately move onto the next project

How long should you let the pickets dryout..I let them dry for a couple days but gaps are now showing between the two horizontal pieces, some as large as 1/4 inch..it even separated the glue. I like to glue the two pieces together before putting the sides on..

look's solid! nice work!

if you could find a way to compress that pine wood on a roller press, pretty sure you can make a nice tight wood grain look! light hard wood!

Just made one for the wife and it turned out awesome. I passed all pickets through the planer multiple times to make it smooth, which made a HUGE difference if you’re going to stain like I did. Tks!

Nice idea how to build an awesome table with minimal expenses. Thank you for sharing 🙏👍

Why skip over the drawers?

Very well done.

RU-vid is being weird and won't let me like this video. I hope it will let me later. Thanks for the great video! New subscriber!

Where are you from? I keep thinking you're saying "lags" for "legs" confused me the first time but I giggled after that. I'm from New England so we sure give you enough to giggle at. 😂

Wow! I sure thought they paid way more than that! I just found you today. You are a great teacher!

excellent video

I love this build. Any recommendations if I don't have a table saw? Is it possible to use a circular saw?

Very nice and a good idea when you don't need to explain. Thanks and have a great day.

Does anyone know what brand of table saw was being used?

Thanks for posting - I appreciate you taking the time to explain the process.

Thank you for making this. A simple project, simple process. 😊

@BradyHommel Are these KD pressure treated ? I trying to stain new pressure treated it was a pain unless its been dried out.

That looks AMAZING

Ive sold over 200 of the planter you taught me to build last year. I get pallet off cuts for .10$ a board. Im into the boxes for like 1.25-1.50$ at most. Its been great. I might dabble with these. Lots of cuts but the profit margins are silly. Thanks alot!

Come visit the great freedom loving state of South Dakota! Best wishes and safe travels.

Really great video man. Keeping it simple

I would love to see you make tapered planners. You make very nice planners and so easy to understand your videos. Let's see you make tapered videos on planters

Awesome Brother!! Thank you!!!

I cracked up seeing the little guy run from out of the picture over the board. Too cute. Nice that they are helping dad.

Great video. The table looks awesome and the finish reflects your kids help. I haven’t seen a lot of your videos but the new Mike seems to be good. Thank you for sharing, have a great adventure and enjoy Fathers Day with your crew.

That’s funny, you were in the Orlando area where I live now, and now your in Utah, where I moved from 2 years ago

Nobody else makes instructional videos like this guy does. He could care less about hiding certain dimensions or aspects of the build just so you’ll buy the plans. Very straight forward and beginner friendly. Well done my friend

Really like the technique for the top. We were looking for an affordable way to do a desk top and will have to remember this one.

You are one of the best instructors anywhere! I love your videos.

Nicely done! Btw, I'm in SLC..and knew instantly that you were in Utah.

Great instructions!!

Just curious, are you using no rusting screws?...ie. stainless screws, silicone bronze screws or decking screws

Not crazy at all! My wife and I found a property in Florida last year that we couldn't pass up. Huge barn for a shop and a few acres to homestead, also going the home education route! Keep crushing it!
