This Dining table uses sliding dovetail battens to secure the top which "floats" about an inch above the base. The base is joined with wedged through tenons. African blackwood is used for the wedges.

I usually don't comment but there's something to be said about how beautiful his work is, the presentation in the video, and the ambiance it creates. So extremely underrated

@FakeBob80 2 года назад

Like watching someone from 150 years ago ply their expertise, calm working environment and dedicated skill. I look forward to every video he posts, just as a relaxation tool!

@AndrewPace77 Год назад

Though the beauty of that table is astonishing, my favorite part of the whole video is that not one power tool was used. I love that the old ways are being preserved. Please keep it up!

@MrGeroth 2 года назад

You are THE best woodworker on RU-vid, and I watch hundreds. Your attention to detail is extraordinary. Please keep posting videos and thanks for sharing.

Mr. C is back. Outstanding craftmanship as always. The grain on that wood was absolutely beautiful. Congratulations to Mrs. C for the cinematography as well. A key part on these videos. Cheers.

Just aquired a bunch of old wooden planes, looking forward to getting them up to speed so I can get off the electric tools and do it all by hand. Great job on the table too. 👍

@mrchickadee been a minute since I checked in but holy your video quality has jumped 10 fold. Your dop (director of photography) is really on it. So much beautiful work. Please don't change the audio format ever. I find it so relaxing.

We have a 17th century farm table passed down to me from my Mum. It's still in daily use. I think that one of your lucky family members will be sitting at this table in 300+ years. Beautiful craftsmanship. Thank you. Good to see that the foreman also approves.

@ptbfrch 2 года назад

Always so inspiring. In addition to the incredible craftsmanship, there is not a single piece of waste in the process. No sand paper, no tool that cannot be sharpened, no wasted blades, and what remains is a stunningly beautiful table, and wood shavings that can be used to heat. And cat. :)

The way you were walking with that slab at the start of the vid, it looked like you were going to, or just finished, bludgeoning someone to death with it. Lol.

@bordenfleetwood5773 2 года назад

No words. There are no words for this. I've been doing some hand tool woodworking since right about the time this channel posted its first video. My projects... Work. They look decent, and function, but are basic and too rough to be anything more than amateur work. This guy has been showing me what master work looks like since Day 1. An absolute master.

@robertsnyder8159 2 года назад

I agree with all the comments about the great woodworking, but I also appreciate the wonderful videography. Great job!

@NicoHorridge 2 года назад

In a world overwhelmingly consumed with bigger, better, faster… Milwaukee power tools and Diablo saw blades tend to steal the show. But, this is real. This is the real stuff. What makes you want to make a family, move to the hill country and learn to use your hands and enjoy life. Even if this process is slower, it’s real. Not this fast, unnatural thing. It’s real. Thanks you Mr. Chickadee.

I also usually don’t comment but you’re just such an inspiration. I would love to see a video where you go through your hand tools and explain what they do and what scenarios you would use them in. So much appreciated!

@MrTresto Год назад

This is wonderful filming and editing, and outstanding woodworking skills. Very beautiful to watch. Thank you, I enjoyed it very much. I just bought a cherry slab to make myself a desk, and while I will be mostly using power tools, it still inspires me to continue working on it just from seeing the incredible grain and subtlety of this cherry table.

@nevillesmith9795 2 года назад

It is very nice to see that there are still some people who prefer to do woodwork the old hard-laboring and old school way. (Nothing wrong in using electrical tools. I do so at my place of work as well) it is just nice to hear a hand saw sound and all the sounds of manual tools...

@daw162 Год назад

Quartered cherry has so much visual interest to offer and it just doesn't get enough credit for it. I suppose people want light wood or dark wood, and not much in between, but it's a delight . I think most folks watch youtube these days for entertainment - to dream about what they could do rather than looking for things they will do. You've got the pieces of hand work together in a way that I hope some folks can appreciate - there is joy and physical stimulation in working that way. It's too bad there isn't a feel-o-meter. it doesn't by rule have to change what we make - working by hand, but it gives us time to see and discern that's important. And it leaves the work with more life. You know that I think the shavings from the try plane are just dandy - same with the smoother. Everything goes together naturally - the wood offers resistance to work, but it isn't a fight or exasperation and it doesn't have to be. no red face, no haunched over, no tools jamming...

@MrChickadee Год назад

You know I had a prof slab sawyer angrily proclaim that had to be sycamore wood, I guess many people dont know the lovely rays many woods can have if quartered. I work by hand for the enjoyment and practicality of it. I can make anything I need in this 12x15 workshop, without the noise, PPE and expense of power tools. Yes it takes me longer, and no I dont care. No one NEEDS to make their own furniture, and if you do, work the way you enjoy, is how I feel. I get great joy from these tools, and none from power tools, though I understand their utility to those pushed for time. I truly love the gift these planes give, that is, the ability to dimension and finish a piece in one process, regardless of the grain or knots, and never needing anything like sandpaper, scrapers and other BS. Just plane the wood, and its done, feels like polished marble and shines like a mirror. All this cherry came from one tree a neighbor gave us, it all had this nice curly wavyness to the grain, real lovely stuff to work with. Thanks for the comment sir.

@cafecybernz 2 года назад

Prior to watching your video, I had spent 30 minutes on another channel following a young upcoming RU-vidr using a circular saw, a table saw, a jointer AND a sander to make a desk out of pallet wood, while modern music and non-stop talking filled up the blanks when per chance a noisy engine was not running. And then here I am witnessing the making of a dining table without even the shadow of a power tool in sight, where all the cutting and planning is done 100% by hand, completely built in religious silence. It was like jumping from a gridlocked central business district packed with cars honking their horns and sidewalks jammed with shouting people to sitting down in a spring meadow where butterflies caress flowers kissed by a soft breeze alongside a gentle brook... the contrast could not have been more extreme. Simply the best RU-vid woodworking channel for Asperger viewers like myself, absolutely no contest. And your tools are so sharp! That big chisel working close to your fingers gave me shivers haha.

@sergedurand9905 2 года назад

There are two moments of grace: when we see you doing the object and when we see the finished object. Never the feeling of work as there is respect for the wood and the tool. Thank you for these beautiful moments.

@fngrusty42 2 года назад

Dear Sir, I started carpentry in 71 we used the stair router like the one you were using. The cutting edge is tempered to hard very difficult to sharpen . Heat the cutting edge just a bit to soften it ,, then sharpen the tool. They work so much better after that. Great work wonderful video

I am an old school master carpenter, but at my age now, I could not do all completely by hand, I am very spoiled to using my power tools, I still do a lot of hand detail work, I just love seeing real craftsmanship.. That had to have taken at least a weekend to do, doing it all by hand... Thank you so much for sharing.. And reminding us, old fashioned carpentry is awesome..

@sydneyevans2637 2 года назад

Your videos are always worth waiting for. The clamping jig for the table top is great. Simple and effective. The table is beautiful and the splayed out legs give it a lot of character. Best to you and your family!

@PatNetherlander 2 года назад

@TheWolfster001 2 года назад

@@idontthinkso666 I watched the video when he built it.. Hands down, he is very skilled, My hands are way too old to do real old school carpentry.. I have to use power, air & battery..

I could seriously , being an ex navy guy enjoy doing some serious fret and clockcase work with a fellow ex leatherneck . yeah , i do believe i could . i enjoy Handwork much as you do with older , original tools , as well as some finer machine tools as well . i've been building grandfather , regulator , and shelf type clocks and furniture since 1986 . i am a retired aviation cabinetmaker and finish carpenter by trade . i enjoy blacksmith /machinist work as well . Recently i've gotten a bug in my brain , wanting to build a new home . in the japanese antiquated post and beam style , with modern insulation , wiring , etc . but remaining , structurally as original as possible . i enjoyed your other video on the japanese type building addition. quite informative . i have ordered several sets of blueprints from Japan on Samarai type estates . This is the direction i am headed into .

Many thanks for allowing us to watch, learn and be inspired. I wonder though, if sometimes you just want to turn the camera off, make something just for yourself, be by yourself - without up to 300+ thousand strangers watching you. Personally speaking, I feel self conscious when customers or strangers watch me work.

@nathanbowersox1234 Год назад

Lets take a moment to acknowledge the self control while he was chiseling out the kerf cuts. To stick to chiseling out his cuts he already knocked out while he has all of those longer pieces further down. Wow I would have been in a frenzy. Another thing is when that joinery goes together super tight I have been waiting for him to turn towards the camera with a huge grin and do a huge nod “yeahhhhhh”

21:36 - Never seen it done that way before but can see no reason why not :-) Many of you Americans seem to have a penchant for pretending to live in the rural 18'th century, it has a certain air of 'cosplay' that might come across as affected - but is perhaps a very understandable reaction of distancing & disgust at the state of contemporary America ? What do I know ... I'm just a woodworker on the northern outskirts of Western civilization. In many ways I feel grateful to be 'far from the madding crowd'. Let me be clear: I have nothing against this. I'm watching this with great interest while marveling at the skills demonstrated.

Yet again, another beautiful creation from wood by Mr. Chickadee. I like everything about the table, the curves, joinery techniques & finish. I used the same brand tung oil on my pine floors, but I chose their dark mixture & cut it with mineral spirits for deep penetration into the wood. Thank you for another fine presentation!
