The Dr. Seuss Table

- I made this end table from an old burl chunk I had and a stack of burn pile recuses I got from my local wood supplier. I fashioned the top into a 4-way bookmatch and power-carved the base with an angle grinder and a special disc by Kutzall. Let me know if you have any questions on anything!

The only thing that would have been better is if you had shaped the table leg like the lamp base in the movie A Christmas Story. You were pretty close though. Missed it by that much! Take care, great project!
Our vision is impeccable
That’s perfect 😂 might be too fragile’ though
@@BlacktailStudioYou could ask your wife...
I like the alligator char idea
@@wtjohnson3765 LOL!
The first half of the th-cam.com/users/postUgkx3ICSK6nSknaL_45CU2NmFSoXjarGMDiJ book is everything about wood: types, tools, finishes, setting up shop etc. The second half is all about doing projects for inside and outside of the home. The color pictures are helpful. After reading a dozen of these types of books, this is probably the best overall (layout, color photos, plans). Only detraction is that many of the projects use a table saw/router/planer, which are usually expensive and take up space, so the plans are less friendly to newcomers and the budget conscious. But I know I can use a drill, circular saw or a jigsaw to make the projects.
The "burn pile" hurt my soul. There was so much potential in there!
Exactly! That pile looked better than my entire hoarded collection of wood for future projects - clearly I have to upgrade the quality of the dumpsters I dive in for cast offs
Right??
@@BlacktailStudio Id love to have that burn pile end up in my fire pit. a match would never hit it.
You should be a Goby Ambassador for the offcuts. They are setting fire to an entire sub market that could benefit from their “trash”!
I almost cried watching that!
I watch a bunch of different woodworking videos and yours is by far the easiest to watch. No cutaways, no obnoxious music, and a project that’s in my scope of ability! Subscribed
Agreed. I love hearing the process and all the tools he uses for his projects!
@@burhanameen absolutely! I really appreciate people taking the time to explain things. It’s a huge help, especially having autism and adhd.
Most youtube videos make me feel like I’m having a seizure with all the random cut scenes and spastic nature, but not these
I agree.
Yes what is with music. I guess I am getting old. Silence and commentary is gold.
When I first started watching your videos I figured I would just watch 3-4 minutes and maybe skip to the end, but I have never done this. I find for some odd reason your videos and your craft completely riveting to watch. I truly can not say more to emphasize how captivating your videos are. Keep up the great work.
that is me every time.
Oh, let me see the start, then I'll jump the end and see the finished... 15-20 minutes later I am watching the finished piece, and going "how... why... how did I just spend 20 minutes watching this"...
Hard to describe, but it is really awesome. I've watched other woodworkers, and I'll see some of their stuff, then get bored...
Blacktail is the best :)
I'm at the point I usually already know what he is going to say next, but I keep watching anyway 😂
I like the finished product a lot, but I would have been really tempted to let that table top stay as big as possible. It was some really nice material.
100% agree 👍
Seemed like a lot of waste
Yes I was crying as he cut it down.
I would love to see a dining table or similar larger table where the top is a 4 way book match like this. Broke my heart to see you cut off so much!
I'm drooling over the burn-bin haul you filmed. As a woodturner, that's gold...
My heart died a little when the tabletop kept getting smaller and smaller. But still, such a gorgeous project. Great video.
my heart ached when i saw you cutting off the beautiful burl into small table..
I know I know
Me too! I would've liked it bigger.
My career was civil service with the air force. I was a radar and electronics technician. I retired in 1986. my wife passed and I took up bowl turning and i have made some band saw boxes. Enjoy your work.Your tables are great. keep on keeping on
I liked it so much ... I came back a year later to watch it again. Thanks Cam for all your content.
Unmatched. Like a breath of fresh air. Talented, opinionated, fearless and, selfless. What you see is what you get. Bravo!
You’re artistry never ceases to impress me. I love the compilation of the base. Your narrative is relaxing and soothing in addition to being educational. You have a great talent, Cam.
I love the shape of the leg and the pattern of the book-matched top. I might have drilled a big hole in the underside of the base and put in a big lead or iron weight. Reason: if you have a cat, that table is going over!
DONT HAVE CATS
A cat would definitely see this as a scratching post!! 😬
No preference on next project. Always fun to watch what you create!
3:30 am insomniac. I enjoy the small projects as much as the large slab dining tables. Thank you for sharing the details that result in a high quality product.
I think it's great that you're so involved with your community. Don't see that much these days
Thanks man!
You almost got there! What I would have loved to have seen is a "root" structure at the base going up and into the column. The base is structured almost to look like a living tree stump and a added feature such as the root structure would put this piece over the top. You do fabulous work, can't wait to see what's next.
Gary
Not that I'm skilled enough to even try this, but I was thinking the same thing!
Thanks Gary!
A Maloof root structure like the ones on his pedestal tables ?
I love how you build all these beautiful works of art. Reminds me growing up with my Grandfather in his woodworking shop.❤
Wow! Love the table! Just a little dash of Dr Seuss in there! Excellent!
I'm a great grandma. That's why I'd know about the look...
I know im never going to make a table but im still watching, good stuff
Same here brother
Absolutely beautiful! Love the offset stand. Always watch to the end as I'm always inspired by your work.
I love this build. Such an excellent video. I enjoy your work and explantions of what you are doing, My wife loves hearing you talk, she says you have a nice voice. This table is one of the best I have ever seen. Thank you.
Your wife is so fortunate to receive pretty wooden things.👍 I would buy that piece , would like a bigger one too.
Man. I'd love to have access to that "burn pile" :'(
Any store that sells exotic lumber like that, even Woodcraft and Rockler, typically have a box of off cuts that you can go through and pick out what you want. One of my favorite parts of going.
More off-cut firewood to beautiful furniture. It’s amazing what gets thrown out and/or burned. The walnut is beautiful. The table looks like it came right out of a Dr. Seuss book. I would love to see more of that. As an amateur woodworker, I feel like we get stuck in the mindset of straight edges and 90 degree angles. It’s nice to see a furniture creation with angles all over the map. Love your channel.
the wood in that burn bin was probably worth more than all the materials I've ever used
A wall clock project in the Blacktail Style would be awesome! as always really enjoyable and inspring to watch!
Shop tour and how to start financially.
I really appreciate that in every video you never assume we have watched any other video, really keeps it accessible.
As always, great work!
When I make knife handles, sometimes there will be very fine voids that need to be filled. Instead of mixing the sawdust with the glue i found that packing the void with the dust(overfill it and something like a needle works well to really get it in there) and then using a drop of very thin CA glue on it. the thin stuff will wick in and set up nearly instantly. After sanding off the excess, it seems to work better at keeping the void filled. Give it a shot sometime, see how you like it.
Very nice!
Love this table. The top wood was so beautiful, I would have tried to use it all and just make a larger table.. seems a shame to cut off so much lovely wood.. 😊
Absolutely love this design!!
Facebook recommended that I check you out, so glad they did. Even though I don’t do wood working, I loved seeing this piece of work being created!!! Great job!!!
Don't care! I love just watching you work! You're a true artist! Cheers from TO!
Loved the stacking wood base look! I would love to see you make a head board with an interesting wood grain.
Looks great!
Love the idea of trying to use anything and everything, like pieces from the burn bin! Zero waste is the goal.
Table gave me palm tree vibes. Pretty neat! Digging the scrap piece build
The next project is like to see you do... I’d like to see you get more abstract and really out there with some standing art pieces that combine various wood tones and shapes from scrap wood.
Beautiful, reminded me of a Dr. Sues tree
Total Lorax table
今天如何？
Cam, you truly are an inspiring artist
Another video that I enjoyed while eating breakfast this morning. This is a great looking table. Thank you for your work and sharing!
❤❤❤ love that you used scraps to make the table looks great😊😊😊😊
Dude that 4-way bookmatch is fantastic, I've never seen anything like that before. Also that burn bin hurts my eyes to look at. There's better wood there than my 'good wood' shelf in the garage.
I really love this table. Only one thing, I would like to see it in a bigger size. The wood is gorgeous, I like the finish and the way the different pieces of wood shows thru just enough.
Just wanted to say I appreciate that you respond to us on the regular!
This is one of my favourite projects you have done, creativity seems to come naturally to you and this kind of result shows that you know your stuff.
"I made the mistake of asking my wife what size table she wanted." hahahahaha
The worst
@@BlacktailStudio 😂
@@nuttibuddy he said by mistake…
Been subscribed for a while now. You’re an inspiration. I haven’t worked wood or built furniture in years, life has a way of distracting you. After watching your videos I’m going to start again. I remember how good it made me feel, and how satisfying it was to complete a project. Thank you, Cam!!
I am going to ask hubby to make a table like this for my youngest 4 yr old) granddaughter. I think she will love it. Each of my kids and grandkids have something made by Grandpa just for them. I love the Dr Seuss leg. Thanks.
I'm not sure why - but I find myself watching SO many of your videos! There is something about how you explain things and show things that is really engaging, and watching what looks to a layman's eye like junk wood turn into a magnificently beautiful creation by your hands is truly captivating and enthralling. I am not a woodworker and I don't think I would ever undertake a project the likes of which you do because of the enormous amount of time, complexity and attention to detail. I've built a treehouse for my kids and a treehouse cage for my bird, and other very simple things like that - but I am simple AMAZED at what you are able to create! Also, I VERY much appreciate that a) that you never ever use foul language and b) you never show sexually suggestive scenes. Some of the best youtube content that I've seen often has at the very least a "throw in" of some foul language or sexually suggestive scenes that really are completely gratuitous and have nothing to do with the video's content and are thrown in "just 'cause" , and I always come away feeling from things like that like "Uch, why did they have to go and mar an otherwise amazing clip." Your videos are great content, pure and simple. The "Real McCoy". Keep up the GREAT work!!!! And thank you for providing truly enjoyable and genuinely valuable content!
This is awesome! And its lovely to see creators bothering to reply to questions and the consultations are above and beyond. Thank you!
I appreciate that!
Thoroughly enjoy watching and learning from your videos. They always are easy to make it through without getting bored. While not passing by important parts of the build in the process.
Roll Top Desk is what I want to see next. I *loved* this one. very cool. thanks for sharing.
I love the epoxy tables you do and I have learned a lot about epoxy from watching your videos! I would like to see some smaller projects for the new to epoxy woodworker! I am newer to woodworking and would like to try my hand at epoxy, however I am a little hesitant because epoxy can get expensive if I where to try and do a dinning room table. Any suggestions on a good first project to try epoxy on, so I can become more comfortable with epoxy before diving into a big epoxy project?
Coasters and cutting boards wouldn't use much epoxy.
Coasters is a great idea!
Hey Ethan - you ever make anything? Can we see???!!!
@@thomream1888 Hey Thom - My wife and I bought a house shortly after this video, so no woodworking but lots of remodeling in the last 8 months. Hoping to make something this summer now that the house is done!
Hey Ethan - Congrats on the new house! I hope you have your woodworking area all set up, right?! Besides, how can you complete all that remodding without a workshop?! Ah, you are a clever man! "But hon, I can't paint the bathroom today - I've got to go pick up that (insert name of most-needed tool here) and set it up so I can finish the (insert another boring job here). Thanks for your understanding, hon! Can I get you lunch while I'm out???"
Ethan, have you thought about starting your own channel? It's not too hard, yes it does take some time, and you do need some gear, but I for one would like to see what you're up to. Thanks for your time, now go make some sawdust!
I would love to see more of the resin covered charred wood. I tried this technique and for some reason my resin turned purple...ish?
You didnt get enough of the loose charred wood out
Oh weird! Not sure
@@austinhorsley1751 Before covering it with epoxy, after burning it i cleaned it 3 times during 48 hours. Paper towels and than microfibre. Wood texture is flat and not too bumpy so i think its not like there was a lot of carbon dust between the "cells".
@@Igor_Zdrowowicz what wood did you use
I second this request... that charred wood table is amazingly gorgeous!
I love everything that I watch you make. I haven't found a favorite yet. Except I love this little table it is unique and will fit in a small space beautifully. I watch you because I miss watching my dad and my husband, and they are both gone now. I love beautiful wood and beautiful glass, so in a way, you do both using the resin. I wish I could afford a small table but not on my fixed-income. I will just keep enjoying the beautiful work you do. Thank you for the beauty that brings Beautiful Memories.
Next project: coffee table. Love the detail in the wood, not only the top but also. The base.
Woodprix has very good and accurate plans.
Beautiful table, I have to agree with some other comments about cringing at how much of that wood you ended up cutting off.
Loved seeing the process and the end result. Beautiful table!!
I love watching the creative process throughout the end of your builds.
Thoughts during this video:
- YES channel dr seuss with that base
- “I’m banking on people not setting their drinks on the SIDE of this table” 😂
- Sponsored by bud light and bubly
- I NEED THIS TABLE 😍
😂😂😂
Yup. Dr. Seuss is exactly what I was thinking. Gorgeous piece.
I thought one of the earlier versions of book matching that you showed looked better to me. I thought it was a little more concentric, but maybe you were trying to avoid that look.
For table bases, I think this is one of my favorite I've ever seen! It's just so unique!
Glad you were able to take scrap wood and make such a fine base - looks great. I keep learning from you in each video. Thanks Cam
It’s beautiful. Small and yet elegant. As always a good finish process. Great work
Really nice table build!! Very beautiful.
Oh to have access to a burn bin like that!! You have a fantastic talent to make what you did with that material. Your table is a masterpiece! Would love to see a large table with black walnut. I figure , if one is going to drool, go big!
Love the videos and sharing your talent.! It makes us really old woodworkers realize we’re never too old to learn something new. Keep up the great work! Many thanks!
I really love this table! It’s unique and the lighter/darker wood combo is stunning!!
I am enjoying watching this type of creative experiences. To answer to your question; size does not matter, at least not in this case.
Love that base! Do anything, I’m easy, I’ll like it !
>comment saying what i want to see next, which is simply Anything You Want.<
What a fun project! I love the wonky, Dr. Seuss-ness of it. Putting the cans on the edge of the table at the end was very informative! Thanks for doing that.
That Burl is amazing! Such a gorgeous colour and so much character.
The next project I would like to see you make is another 4-way book match please. I'm researching to see how you do a 4-way book match and you came up and after watching you I have a more of an understanding how it's done and I look forward to getting down to my workshop and having a go. So thank you!
Love your videos , gotta tell ya, when I saw your table base stacked laminations I couldn't wait to see you finish it. That technique is about 80% of what I do. Lots of sculptures , free form , manta Ray's, wall sculpture and laminate bowls. I have 7 side grinders with dedicated sculpting wheels on them. One man's heaven is another man's hell. The hrs of sanding to get it butter smooth is meditation for me. I want to thank you so much for showing this piece to us. It was absolute pure pleasure to watch. Beautiful finish! Keep doing your videos. I love your craftsmanship. Well done 👏👏👏
Hi Cam, Just wanted to say that you do beautiful work. I don't have these abilities but enjoy watching you work. Cheers, Larry
You have an extraordinary gift in wood working! Thank you.
Couldn’t have made it nicer. I absolutely love this. I have a couple slabs of small scrap and tons of small fire wood scrap as well. My wife is gonna love this.
Awesome table! My knees ached watching you do that glue up.
I absolutely love it! The wood and the table are beautiful...
Wow, I mean wow. What a great idea. Love this video, please do more. Unusual builds are the most fun.
Your work is like an addiction I think i am watching your videos from consecutive 5 hours now no break just came across your Chanel and by far its the best one and this table its awesome great work
Frankly, I could see this table with a clear top so I would get the full impact of the satiny patterning of the base whenever I looked t it.
The top turned out well, but, for me, think I'd prefer to allow top, base to stand on their own.
Watching you make finishing decisions to bring out the beauty of each type of wood, especially the unique wood pieces you chose to use, is the pinnacle of each video!
Enjoy your table builds
Best base out of all the tables on this channel!
I have watched most of your videos now and honestly this table is one of my favourites, I’m not sure why! But it’s absolutely gorgeous, has a slightly childish spin, and I just love that
The base was the best part, absolutely beautiful.....
Dude your work is absolutely amazing. I've just started making cutting boards and eventually hope to move up to tables, you have at least inspired me if not hundreds more. Keep up the good work.
I love the way you created the appearance of circular patterns on the sides of the base, by careful arrangement of the end grain! Good work all around.
This is absolutely beautiful.
I love what you do. I think a dining room table would look beautiful with legs like this or whatever shape you decide to make them them.
This is inspiring.
Thankyou.
You are a professor, and every video is a top-shelf education! 👍🥰
The base and stand are GORGEOUS. I think I agree with you assessment that the top was a lot more work than the final product would suggest. Overall, it's a keeper!
Stunning Table, one of my favorites.
Incredible… I own a construction/real estate business now and I’m 38 hope to be retired by 40 from the day to day grind , and can’t wait to start my wood working journey. Your pieces make me look forward to it more and more every time I watch your work !! Thank you !
Absolutely a beautiful table. Wish I had seen this video a few years ago.
Love the grain in this wood! It looks beautiful and the book cut (or whatever it's called) is a really nice way to display it. Love watching your videos.
Love the bookmatch. Looks amazing everytime
Very innovative. I feel very inspired the way u work alone without any helper Or support. Very correct usage of the instruments u r having in your workshop.
As soon as I saw the 4-way flip at the start of this video it was WOW at first view
A dog of course! Love these projects, So beautiful - I like the way you bring cracked up messy bits of timber to a beautiful project.
Another shop tour ... for sure. This is a beautiful piece.
