This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection ru-vid.comUgkxkNYRBJuiJ6EwD-tQSAlxg0eFKsnR2cgz I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seem to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.
There aren’t many woodworking videos that make me literally laugh out loud (though Jackman woodworking comes close), but that cat was brilliant. Can see my cat doing that.
Those who watch this video in 2x really do not understand the beauty and poetry of this wonderful work in wood and also in audiovisual. It is much more than just a tutorial.
Anyone else struggle with getting their jigsaw cuts to be as straight as this guy? Lol that is the one tool that I have used forever and yet still can't seem to get my notches to be even close to perfect.
I not only would be happy to have such a fine table but I also would like to be able to build one by myself. Thanks for sharing such a calming creation process.
Absolutely Sensational! The cinematography style, lighting, audio and story line was fantastic. In a short 10ish minutes you managed to encapsulate what took weeks to build and edit, a short film, a piece of knowledge and a service to the community. Its greatly appreciated. We wish you good fortune on the adventures to come ~ Frederick & Jennifer
Fantastic job! Great video, too, although adding narration explaining what you're doing and your design decisions would take it to the next level. Thanks!
I agree. While I don't think something of equal value could be made, I think it's still possible to make a table that works practically the same. It's basically three parts; the frame and legs, the raised platform, and the cover (sleeves). So with some tweaking, it could be possible to make one and you'd probably really just need some basic stuff; a saw, drill, maybe a jigsaw cutter.
I love Arcadia Quest! I wasn't feeling great one day so I suggested to my wife that we play a game of it. Ended up doing a complete scenario that day, only stopping to order food :D
The best part of this design is that it can easily be made with basic items and industrial-level, woodworking equipment everyone has just lying around the house!
Oh yes, I see how this is labelled with 101 level and tutorial... Other than the domino (not necessary, could have used dowels) and the drum sander (not necessary, could have used preveneered plywood or commercially bought veneer), nothing is out of the ordinary for a "medium to advanced" hobbyist woodworker shop.
Paul, please know that I think the table looks amazing, and I wish I had remotely the skills to make one. My comment was purely a bad attempt at self-deprecating humor.
but to be honest I had the same thought. "My god how many things I would even have to buy to even get started with this!" I imagine you're doing way more than one table though ;) Good job!
Kind of my thoughts exactly. Well except for the sarcasm. If I had access to that well stocked a woodworking workshop I'd build everything myself. Edit: and the same day I write this I read about an open workshop nearby where I actually have access to pretty much all I need. So I guess I will see if I can build such a thing.
I really just wanna come over and play games on this table its beautiful i wish i had any kind of woodworking or handyman skills to make it honestly. VERY BRILLIANT VIDEO!
How and why this popped up in my feed only the RU-vid algorithm will know. But what I do know is that I liked and followed and I'm looking forward to visit more of your content! This is bloody brilliant!
OK, when you vacuum sealed the veneer, you were just showing off. What spices did you use? I see you also have a resident building & projects inspector (cat) too. Good job on the details and making it multi-functional.
Great build, but you can save yourself a lot of time making the tenon on the bandsaw as well. Just set the table saw up to cut the thickness of it 3:10 and then the bandsaw for the depth in one cut like you're doing for the veneer 3:18
That looks very nice. I only wish that you would have talked/explained the steps for those of us (me) who are not as well versed in wood tools. Thank you.
