The actual measurement of milled lumber like you used is smaller because it is rough cut to 1” then “milled” (planed and edged or ripped) so that the lumber is in a more finished state.
I made this exact table with your help. Same outlet, measurements and everything. Thank u so much for doing this video and your lip stick is Poppin!!! 💋💄
LOL! I loved the bug following you! My grandmother said when she was a little girl she'd catch those bugs and tie a string on it and she'd have a flying pet lol!
Girl you are awesome I love that you shared the trials along with the triumph everyone always makes it look like it so easy and nothing ever hose wrong as a newbie to wood working I find this extremely frustrating. So thankyou for that . The bee fight though girl had me on the floor I would have been the same way lol
Great project! And what a nifty gadget, that pockethole thingy. Never seen that before. Another "Schnitzeljagd" (treasure hunt) at the home improvement store, trying to explain to the guys there what it is that I want 😁
I think you did a great job, warts and all. I don't even know how to use power tools still despite my husband having a quite a bit of them. It looks simple enough to even do this with a miter box and hacksaw to build a basic one.
Wood is measured before it goes through a scalar and planar. A scalar makes one side flat and then makes one right angle, and then the planar will square up the opposite sides to make the plank of wood nice and square and even. So if the 2x4 originally cut is warped, putting it through these machines will shave off the concave/convex sides, just keeping whatever portion you can cut a regular squared off shape out of
Awesome idea, I have an awkward small living room that I'm trying to figure out how to arrange. There's not enough space for side tables and stuff so a behind the sofa table may be the answer. Thanks!
You are so talented and Awesome !! 👍 you just inspired me to start my sofa table . I make flaws when doing projects and I just have fun with it!! I also liked that insect moment 😁 all is going well until I have to run Lol !!
Really like your take on this! Looks good, good support and functional, but you didn't over complicate the crap out of it either, like a lot of folks seem to do. Didn't make it so simple it was ugly, either. My only two cents would be: Be careful of having the outlets on top, they are exposed to either food or liquids getting inside of them, causing all sorts of problems. They are safer on the side of the table, which is tricky with yours since only one side is exposed, so naturally I see why you chose to have outlets on top. Just more risky that way. Also if the inside of the table is going to be hidden, no real need to stain it. Just added work and leaves you with less stain for the next project.
ok why do you have to do the screws sideways and one went over, couldnt they have went straight in on the side, i dont understand, i been looking and dont see why that would have been a problem and it would have looked fine?
Shouldn't all the screws be 2 1/2 and when connecting the 2x2 to the 1x? Then on the 1x to the 2x2 use a 1 1/4? Also I believe the reasons why the wood thickness isn't a true 2x2 is because of the milling process and wood shrinking.
Kreg has has a lot of valuable info on their website. They have a chart that tells you which screw to use depending on the thickness you are driving in, and a video on how to check without using a chart. www.kregtool.com/about-us/news/kreg-tool-tips-joining/always-use-actual-thickness.aspx Also, they have a handy right angle clamp that allows you the clamp the leg board to the top board using one of the pocket holes you've drilled. www.kregtool.com/store/c46/corner-clamps/p389/right-angle-clamp/
HOW GHETTO, yall should of cut it so it sat flush with the back wall :D That shit sticking out way too far you need to CUT IT! Cut it, cut it, cut it, cut it.
