How I built a huge 12.5' conference table for Gary Vee's new LA office. I linked up with Urbn Timber to create a Live Edge table top from ash slabs, then welded up a base from 1/4" plate steel. Thanks to Bernzomatic for sponsoring this video, be sure and check out all the links below!

We kept finding we needed a folding table. This is so easy to store. ru-vid.comUgkxStL0QRChBju4aQlnTrRgBZvafFog0KU3 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.

@JonnyBuilds 6 лет назад

The slabs are are gorgeous, but man I love that steel base. Gives the piece a super sleek, modern, but industrial vibe. Well done!

@kareldc2 6 лет назад

Cool but you fixed the wood directly on the base with screws that are fixed and can't move as the wood expands and contracts. You need to compensate with oval srew holes, otherwise the screws will crack or the top.

@zaneh6224 6 лет назад

Correct, especially on a table of this size, this is the difference between DIY and professional, DIY doesn't understand the finer points of timber and the importance of executing these small details correctly.

@neoxochitl 5 лет назад

@@zaneh6224, Can I please ask you to further explain? So the holes themselves have to be oval or special screws? Where can I buy them if possible?

@zaneh6224 5 лет назад

@@neoxochitl The holes in the base connection plates need to be oval shaped, this allows the fixing screws to move along the oval slightly when the wood want's to expand / contract

@reidsimonson 5 лет назад

Zane H could you just drill larger circular holes? Or I suppose the oval screw holes keep the top sturdy so it doesn’t move but allows for expansion.

+Modern Builds BESIDES LACK OF IMAGINATION I LIKE THE VIDEO YOU DON'T TALK STUPIDITY TALK FAST DO GREAT QUALITY VIDEOS I MADE THOSE TABLES BOTH SIDES YOU CAN FLIP EASILY WHEN YOU GET BORED ON ONE SIDE YOU FLIP EASILY THE BOTTOM SIDE WITH MICROPHONES CAMERAS BLUETOOTH SPEAKERS ELEVATOR FOR BETTER COMFORT GPS FOR LOCATION OF CONFERENCE FOR EXAMPLE YOU GET TO A BUILDING AND CAN'T FIND THE ROOM FOR REAL CONFERENCES!

@bstiger6482 4 года назад

Great looking table top, but don't understand why another company did the majority of the work on the top. The bottom looks unfinished, like you didn't have the right equipment to finish it. Although it was a clever solution for someone with no welding skills.

@emilylindstrom724 6 лет назад

Looking forward to the torch projects! I have that same little one you used, it's super handy to have around for lots of things. And I like the base on this table.

@dougharkness6776 5 лет назад

Get a gas welder and use c 25 gas. You will have far less spray and your welds will look really smooth. Stop at your local welding supply shop and they can point you the right direction.

@Nickporter17 5 лет назад

Idk if anyone has said this already but socks and shorts is not a problem in San Bernadino County. Bros been wearing it since the 80s.

@ryanblanco5866 4 года назад

Cool build! Why not give a plasma cutter a try? You’d save a lot of time cutting those steel plates.

@jasonscramlin7825 3 года назад

I noticed you didn't add any bracing to the wood. Is there a general concern with cupping of slab wood when joining?

@803brando 6 лет назад

you should think about doing petinas on your steel bases. uses acids, salts, and heat to achieve different colors & patterns. its a lot of work but worth it. sculptnouveau.com/

@VitaliySunny 6 лет назад

Steel plates? Looks like shit. Imagine how you hit the edge of the plate with your little finger.

@williammartin2593 4 года назад

What a horrible table. Ugly, all gimmicks, and the the steel edges are dangerous.

@soccerlover9999 6 лет назад

Isn't the steel going to rust after a few days/weeks just from air humidity?

@otrookie 5 лет назад

Should’ve put in wireless chargers in the table especially one for Gary, he loves his media gotta stay plugged

@Appolyon99 5 лет назад

@GoSloSho 5 лет назад

Looks great! I questioned you screwing the table directly to the table instead of using "buttons" or a different way to secure the table to the base while making sure seasonal movement wont be compromised. Other than that, excellent job man.

@ciaranallen5883 6 лет назад

Should have cut slots for the screws attaching base and top. Allows wood to expand prevent cracking in the future

@rayg436 2 года назад

Try a torch Finnish on the wood instead of stain looks great.

@slightlycrookedworkshop 6 лет назад

One thing I would suggest people do is buy a MAP Gas torch rather than a propane torch. It also works with propane so if you ever need a higher temperature you can use MAP gas you won't have to buy another torch.

@theshadow1559 5 лет назад

Two beautifully machined, sealed and polished Ash slabs, ended up unconscionably and unforgivably disrespected by being attached to (IMO) an asininely ugly plate steel base !!! How could you ???

take the shielding nozzle off and put some elec tape around threads if you plan to use gas remember to break off the wire every time you want to strike an arc it will save you a ton of hedache

@Fracturedspleen 6 лет назад

Your welds look a tad cold there. Don’t be afraid to rip the hell out of steel that thick. Also when you’re verticals like that make sure you weld UP the seams. That way you have control over how fast you move your puddle. Might not matter on a small bracket like that but longer beads it will help a ton

@JohnMadeit 6 лет назад

Looks good Mike. Have you tried mig welding with a gas setup?

@ModernBuilds 6 лет назад

I have.. it definitly is a little cleaner and easier, but not worth it to me if You're not welding all the time. It's a lot more expensive and you have to deal with gas.. I've got enough gas as it is lol

@NorthWalesCampers 6 лет назад

A little tip for you. Remove the nozzle cap on your mig torch . It will produce better welds. Mine did. Great build and awesome looking table. Till next week have fun & stay safe.👍👍

This was great, been searching for "building a dining table" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Fenadelyn Esteemed Framework - (just google it )? It is a smashing one off guide for discovering how to improve your woodworking skills without the headache. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my partner got excellent results with it.
