- In this video, I show you how I made the ultimate coffee table from a white oak cookie, a sewing machine base, lava resin, and dimples. It was one of the most challenging and rewarding projects I have ever done, and I want to share with you the whole process, from start to finish.
You will see how I got a 33" white oak cookie when it crushed a car in town, and how I cleaned it, sanded it, and filled the cracks with red lava resin. You will also see how I stumbled upon a vintage sewing machine base on the street, and how I restored it and attached it to the wood slab. And you will see how I added some dimples to the resin to create a unique texture and look.
But it was not all smooth sailing. I faced many issues along the way, such as resin leaks, bubbles, cracks, and equipment problems. I had to improvise, experiment, and learn from my mistakes. I also had to use various tools and techniques, such as a router, a blowtorch, a CNC, a chisel, and epoxy.
I hope you enjoy watching this video as much as I enjoyed making it. If you do, please give it a thumbs up, leave a comment, and subscribe to my channel for more DIY projects. And if you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to let me know. Thanks for watching!

I like it a lot. The dimples in the top match the pedal on the base. Making furniture is always way more challenging than you expect it to be.
I didn't even notice the dimples and pedal. Thanks!
All that work definitely paid off - it is absolutely beautiful! The base was the perfect touch too!
Thank you so much!
Step 1: remove goat from shop; step 2: remove second goat from shop; step 3: repeat steps 1 & 2 as needed 😂😂
😂😂😂 Now I have four and those two pigs from the beginning.
My favorite line “boy this thing is costing me a lot of money”. I say the same thing every time I get halfway through project 🤣. Appreciate the honest video.
So true!
That coffee table looks incredible. A sand blaster is convenient to have, but even with the nicer models you will get fine abrasive dust everywhere!
My buddy has a cheap one, but I thought the wire wheel was faster and a lot easier too. Thanks
Looks great. You definitely earned that beer.
Thanks
Nice touch with the dimples! Love that white oak too.
I love your comment about those individuals who feel it necessary to leave comments about what you're doing wrong. Actually, I like those of you who post your entire video without edits, wrong or right, especially when it comes to resin. Anyone who works with resin knows that 7 out of every 10 projects has something go wrong. It's not about the "wrongs" it's about what you do with it in the end to make it come out "right". Thanks! And your project is awesome!
I have found resin is very unforgiving. lol I think a lot of people have the idea it is easy to work with. I blame it mostly on creators on TH-cam not going over their mistakes. Thanks for watching.
Good evening, Ken.
I've been away a while and ready to catch up now. It's late but all the best to you on Veteran's Day. Thanks for this incredible project video. It was a very ambitious undertaking. Your adapting and moving forward yielded a beautiful outcome. Well done, my friend. See ya next time.
Man that wasn't just a battle that was an entire War but it sure turned out gorgeous nice work
The relief when it was done was so great. Thanks
Ken, the dedication to your craft is commendable. Awesome table!
Great job, and mammoth effort to get it done! That beer at the end was well earned.
Thanks 👍
This was a great piece Ken ! Turned out great, even with the booboo and the the goats!!
Thanks. I really thought this would never get completed.
Great Work!! That’s Beautiful!! The Goat’s were a plus😁👍
Haha, life with goats is a laugh a minute. The chases when they get out of the pen are the best though. lol
Very cool table and really like the vision you had for it. Your perseverance and persistence are admirable. How much does that finished project weigh? Definitely won't get blown over by the wind. 😄 If it does, you and Leanne better be seeking shelter.
Yes, it was a helluva lotta blood, sweat and tears, but you got it finished (with a little help from the goats...)! It really looks fantastic, Ken. Thanks for another great video, and enjoy that beer...You've sure earned it!
Thank you. The goats are not the best helpers. 😂😂
Those goats!!! They are so freaking cute!!
What you call cute I call a pain in the butt! ❤
Awesome👌…the burnt finish effect turned out great, and the large round over on the edge was a good move.
It’s a beautiful coffee table…🐐 🐐🤣
Thank you very much.
That's beautiful, Ken. I'm glad you were able to finish it. You have MUCH, MUCH more patience than I do. Those early hours just remind me of why I never got into making TH-cam content.
Bill
Thanks William 👍All this work....It's even more work when videoing. lol All this work for the small amount of views is why I'm looking to get out of making TH-cam content. lol
Oh my gosh! This was so fun to watch, & the result is amazing! Everyone needs a Clark🤣😋😂
You can have mine. 😂 Well, I don't think my wife would approve though. lol
I was reminded of Clark today as I talked with a lady who was getting her car fixed after a 150-lb goat had jumped all over it & eaten the antenna!
Glad you show the project challenges. Seems like other videos imply everything goes perfect.
Glad you like them! I think knowing it's not as easy as some make it look is important. Thanks for watching.
That turned out absolutely fantastic.
Thank you very much!
Amazing work, what a challenge, but the end result was worth it. Love the heat gun tip.
Thanks, I still haven't figured out where I learned it. Would love to give them credit, because it saves me so much time.
WOW !!! That looks amazing. Sometimes when one gets into a project like that, it turns into more than one can imagine. Thanks for sharing 👍.
It does! Thanks
Man this thing would have me thinking it would have made a better bowl months ago. Good for you for keeping on it. Little thicker than I'd want, but over all this thing looks great!! I like that you went with the old sewing machine stand.
Thanks 👍
Cool 😎 table top Ken. I haven't been getting any of my wood turners videos so I specifically looked you up & noticed that I have quite a few of your videos to watch to be caught up again. I hope, one day that TH-cam leaves my notifications alone 👍🏻😊
I haven't been doing many over the last few months. But even when I do I get hardly any views. Just doesn't seem worth the time. I appreciate you watching.
@@MoonpieCreations
I don't think TH-cam is putting out your notifications 🤔 bc I used to get all of them & now I get none. TH-cam just had an update & I'm not liking it 😒
Great job Ken. That table came out really cool. Ingenious repurposing the sowing table base as legs. And the dimples in the top match the base very well. I also thought it was a great call on the round over. Overall awesome project. I will apologize now for all the laughter on my end at the goat trouble! Thx and take care.
Thanks a bunch! Those goats drive me nuts. But now the male pig keeps getting out. lol
@@MoonpieCreations LOL!!!
An incredible piece, Moonman!
Thank you Shaun.
Wow! What a lot of work that was. Lots of frustration too. But, beautiful result Ken!
Thanks 👍
Great job Ken.
Thank you kindly
Incredible. Gorgeous table.
Thank you very much!
Nick with all the trouble you had the table came out great I just love how it looks, thanks for sharing the good the bad and the funny with the goats,
Thanks 👍
Beautiful table
Thank you!
Awesome job. Hard work paid off. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Nice! Glad you stuck with it.
Thank you
After warching this I'm not sure what was harder: building the table or getting the goats out of the shop.
Really impressive table for sure. I know in several projects I've done I figured out better ways of doing things after I finish.
The goats are a pain, but they were only out of the pen because I was redoing the fence that day. Clark is like Houdini though. No matter what I do he gets out of the pen. lol
I love it! You work so hard & are so dedicated. I'm sorry to hear that you take shite from people on here. Makes you wonder why they ever bother to get out of bed. Cute goats, I like their names.
It came out beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you.
I think it worked out great, Ken. Really love the outcome of this piece💜. And btw, goat goes great with Christmas🤪
Hahahahah mmmmmm goat.
Really awesome!!! Love it! You did an excellent job!
Thank you
WOW, that was a lot of work but it came out great. The sewing machine stand is a nice touch. I’ve been thinking about doing one of these and building a router sled since I don’t have a CNC. Which me luck
Router sleds work great and are much easier to use and cheaper. lol Good luck with your project.
I like it. Great job! Really different. I found your channel, because Jim Sprague, of Sprague Woodturning mentioned your work.
Cool, thanks! Jim as a fantastic turner and resin artist.
Well done!
Stunning
Thank you so much.
great work!
Hearing your struggles with removing the corrugated plastic - try a coating of sheathing tape - in my experience nothing wants to really stick to that, comes out real easy.
props to you for having the guts to do videos and show some of the challenges you faced!
That's a great idea! Thanks
Nice table top!!!!!!!
Great idea on the base!
Great video loved all the trial and tribulations you went through but in the end great table and it just makes you proud to step back and say look what I created 😊
Thank you so much!
Beautiful!!
Thank you! 😊
Beautiful.
Thank you.
Very nice Sgt.
Thank you Gary.
Looks nice. Bravo !!!
Thank you.
VERY NICE 🙌❤️🥰
Thanks 🤗
Very nice. Love you videos keep them coming.
Thanks. Glad you like them!
Great job!
Really nice work 🙂🙂 Nice table top 😍😍
Thank you so much 😊
Great job
Thanks!
I really enjoyed the video. The finished table looks awesome. Great choice on the base. It came out looking good. I think i am pretty much like you and if i haven't bled on a project then i haven't put my heart into it. I'm getting closer to retirement which means more time to put into projects. I enjoy watching your clips and don't mind at all the occasional brain fart when you get the words or quantities wrong. Means you are human. If people have to pick up and correct you on those mistakes, then their opinion doesn't matter. Keep up what you are doping buddy. Warts and all. Cheers
Bruce
Thank you so much Bruce.
I love it Ken! All your hard work paid off on this for sure! Thank you for sharing
this! One love to all!
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.
Very cool, I like it a lot
Thank you! Cheers!
Very cool
Thanks
Very nice
Thanks
The larger round over was the right choice. I find when I start hurting myself when doing a project, I need to stop and walk away for few., because I am either frustrated or tired or both. And when I am that way I do dumb thing. Also breaking tools really sucks. Like the table.
It's always a good choice to walk away and let it sit a while.
Hi Ken. All that work and angst paid off. It’s lovely. As for those pontificating, proscriptive, punctiliously pedantic detractors with their vituperous tongues, go tell them to go find someone else to attack 🌞
Haha, it took me ten mins to look those words up. It's all in a day of being a TH-camr I guess. It's funny to me to see how many people are emboldened to talk trash when behind a key board. I guess when you life is so sad you need to do something to liven it up. lol. Thanks for watching Ray. I appreciate it.
@@MoonpieCreations So good of you to respond, Ken. It took me 10 years to make up that sentence 😂🌞
Nice looking table Ken. The base is nice fit .❤
Thank you kindly
I like it.
Thank you
damn this is pretty cool, sir
Thanks. I appreciate that.
Neat project
Thanks
Mucho trabajo la mesa pero quedó muy bien👍👍
Muchas gracias. A la esposa le encantó al final.
The only difference between a hoarder and collector is if your stuff is cool and if it’s well organized 😂
I think it's cool, but well organized...........not so much lol.
Definitely worth the wait! Always lovely creations, and always an entertaining video to go with them.
Thank you.
No punching sharpie things Ken
Haha true dat!
Trolls are hitting all the creators, regardless or their topic, hard for some reason. It's easy for me to say, but ignore or block them. The vast majority of subscribers enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work and keep the videos coming.
Nice project, lots of work. Have you tried using mold release on the corrugated plastic before attaching it to the project and pouring the resin? It should come right off.
Hey Todd, I do use mold release. It is really weird and a pain in the butt. lol
Sometimes going down on a cookie can be more difficult than you'd think...😂😏
😂😂😂
Very nice! Sometimes things just go wrong and you have to keep at it until you get it right. Well done. Does your mini split drain directly outside? Probably just a clog in the drain line. A quick suction with the vac will clear it out. Had a similar issue and it was an easy fix. 😊
Thanks, it was a clog. Only took me two months to get my wet vac out there to fix it. lol
@@MoonpieCreations Get’n the mini split professionally cleaned once a yr or every other yr is extremely important too. You won’t believe how much disgusting growth/germs/mold builds up. So every time it’s on you are breathing 😮💨 it in.
YAY! 🙌😀
Thank you
I’m sure you figured out the mini split issue already, but mine did that when the condensation drain was clogged.
Yes, a clog it was. Although I turned it off and let it sit for two months. lol It's working now.
Really nice video, Ken! The table is epic! I would have used my Kutzall grinding disks to remove the plastic mold pieces, lickety split! :) I thoroughly understand what you are saying about editing. It is interesting to me that you do it daily but it's probably way more efficient than slogging through it all at once, like I do :P
Yeah, the videos are taking so long these days that I have to get my thoughts down when I do the video. Other wise life takes over and I think to myself "What the hell was I thinking there?"
Personally, I appreciate videos from people that explain the trials and tribulations, over the ones that make ( or try to ) you believe that it's any "easy" process. Chances are that those who mock, wag fingers & spit general negativity in your direction are jealous that they will never be able to work through a stubborn project themselves. F em. They're not worth your time.
Thanks Todd, I like the way you think
Hi 👋, That was a pain Butt or could of been 🐐🐐 or could’ve been, 😂, 😂, a small fence across doorway, 😂,
Dimples I think should of been done on CNC , It looks to dark, from when you filming it, BUT ,
BUT the overall effect looks good, and the sewing machine lake framework, set it off for a nice, 👍🐐🐐👀 they’re back.
Haha, thanks. It's not as dark as it looks on video. You can see the dimples well. I did some testing on making the dimple on the CNC and I just couldn't get them right. But yes I sure could have used it.
Hi 👋, don’t get me wrong, I do like it and the way you made it, obviously given you some serious, but your video didn’t do it justice,
Look forward to seeing you next one. I suppose you started at two years ago ha ha , stay safe keep up the great work done at the buggers get you down, Phil from the moulin France.
Looks great!
Just curious why you didn't use the cnc for the dimples?
I guess I could have, but there is a great chance I would ruin the piece as my CNC skills can be less than Steller.
🤣@@MoonpieCreations
That’s fucking awesome brother ❤❤
Thanks you. I appreciate that.
SHUTUP CLARK! I'm still laughing!
Haha, he's a smart mouth.
Hello Ken, great work. Just curious, though: is there a reason you opted not to use the CNC to make the dimples? It would probably have been less stressful.
I tried a few test cuts for the dimples and I just couldn't get it to work well. My skills on the CNC aren't great and designing cuts even worse. lol I have a plan for another cookie and the CNC. I'm hoping I can find the time to try it and maybe I can even pull it off.
I see. You'll get there, and I'm sure the result will be worth the learning process.
Now for another table from another cookie……..fill cracks with copper color resin, then drill shallow holes and stick a shiny new penny in each hole. Finish with resin.
Neat Idea......what do you think about something similar except I lay the pennies flat and have a top of pennies? I could cut out an insert in the top. Now you got my thoughts going.
My son made the floor of his basement bar of pennies that were close packed and then just poured resin over them.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you Connie.
Yummy a nice goat curry 😂😂😂
My wife has strict orders that I'm not allowed to eat the goats of pigs. ☹
The corrugated cardboard that you used has a plastic coating on it doesn’t it 10:52 ??? If you used regular paper-like cardboard, would it soak up the resin and leak through(just asking because i am curious as a fellow crafter and product creator; not trying to judge or demean in any way)???
It does have a plastic coating. You can use regular cardboard but you have to put some sort of film on it such as Tyvek tape.
Hahaha clark!
Clark is a Jerk. lol
Silly goats, you can't do woodworking, you don't have thumbs!
I laughed way to hard it this one!
Gotta love goats cause otherwise....hmm
lol, truth!
That flattening cutter is way too big for a 1/4" shaft...
The two that got messed up or only 1.5 inch.

Oh man these goats are spoiled. Almost as bad as the dogs. lol.
