In a youtube surrounded by table tops costing 5000 in materials alone, this kind of video is refreshing to watch. Even the mixing tools are janky as hell! Love it! Instant subscribe.
Thanks for the sub! You can do woodworking without spending a lot of money...
@@marmotaworks thanks for the reply. Yes, I'm getting started in woodworking. Currently making a table top for a shared computer desk with the wife. I already bought some 12 inch hardwood planks and I'm getting ready to glue them up.
Unfortunately I'm not planning on being a dedicated woodworker so forking out thousands in equipment is something I cannot justify... yet.

yeah man i just watched a guy make a table and said it costs 17-18 000 . i nearly puked. and unfollowed his channel. he thinks im born yesterday. most of us like to watch some random DYI stuff. but its also insulting to tell me some wood cost 18 000 dollars.
It`s not fraud unless you tell people the table is solid wood. Beautiful work.
Of course... Thank you!
Make it from solid burl walnut and you’ll need to charge thousands.
It is solid wood, just not solid walnut.
@@GoodellsamMDF is not Wood 🤦♂️😂 Medium Density Fibreboard
@@leprechaun7667 Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF) is an engineered "wood composite made up of leftover hardwood or softwood" - and what does that tell you???? Its wood!
Just stumbled upon this video and it has inspired me to attempt something similar. I love the look you were able to accomplish without spending thousands of dollars and with equipment that many of us hobbyists have.
What I like the most is when someone tells me that I have inspired them. Thank you very much!
Wow! Wish we had had this th-cam.com/users/postUgkxKkYeOoCV_w2vPX0CSyVWkhew2c4FYk0d info 3 years ago! In just the last few hours our sibling boys have lowered the intensity and length of barking episodes by at least 50%! ! ! I can't wait to see the results a month from now! !
Looking up, I suppose.
I’m blown away by this! I’m making a new desk but don’t have the budget for anything fancy but this looks perfect!
I'm glad I could give you an idea.
That's stunning the fact that it's veneered.
I can easily make out it's veneer though by the look at the side.
You did phenomenal in the finishing. Great work and I trust this is some sort of experimental.
Yes, that was an experiment
Stunning work. Beautiful end result. I’m really enjoying watching all of your projects. Inspirational indeed.
I'm glad to hear that
This is brilliant! Most people wouldn’t be able to tell the difference and it’s a fraction of the cost.
Thanks!
I really appreciate you! You do AMAZING work. Thanks for the less expensive process of creating an awesome product/project! Continued blessings to you and yours!❤
Thank you very much
Thanks for this tutorial… my girl been wanting a new coffee table and this look great by the way. i think she’ll love it.
Sure! Go for it.
Hey. I liked your video and I especially liked they way you threw in some fun with the cameras and making it look like the pieces were moving their self. I like it when people throw in fun on their videos too.
The table and the wood is just what it is. You get what you pay for.
Great job and some great skills. Thanks for teaching some of these people how to make a cheap table so they can maybe try it for the first time to “get their feet wet” on their first epoxy table. I’m sure you will be helping a lot of people with this video. 🙃
Thank you for appreciating those details. If you have ever edited video, you will know that doing those things consumes a lot of time.
Yes, the idea of this video is that people who are going to make an epoxy table for the first time don't spend hundreds of euros on wood and epoxy.
And yet again you blow me away. Tremendous job on the veneer!
I really like your style too. It's modern and simplistic, yet at the same time also warm.
Thank you. I sincerely appreciate your comment.
I'm afraid people won't like this kind of project...
I hope there are more like you!
@@marmotaworkszWell they can get stuffed
I worked for a high end contract office furniture manufacturer that sold exclusively through designers. Typical executive desk list price $5000 (early 1990). Tops were HDF with either black walnut, red oak or Honduras mahogany veneer. Pretty much the standard in the industry. Like the vid.
Thank you for watching! If you know someone willing to pay that, please pass on my contact information to them... 😁
Yooooo,fantastic work. This is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks for sharing your fantastic work.
Thank you so much
Te quedó buenisima!
Tambien el video muy bien editado.
Un honor haber heredado tu mesa.
Gracias nuevamente ;)
Gracias, disfrutala!
I think it's a great idea for a cheaper version of a river table as long as you let people know what it's actually made from. Great looking table.
Thanks! Of course I tell that
Great looking, alright - but I'm not so sure concerning the economical side. You save on the hardware costs (wood), but increase labour costs (veneer cutting and glueing ...). Provided you tell customers what they'll be getting, will they pay as much per hour of your work as they would for a solid river table?
Amazing! Totally new idea, I never see that 😮 I love it ❤❤
Thanks for the nice words. I'm glad you like it!
Truly splendid work, bud! It isn't "fraud" unless you try and fool people. I did the same for myself using simple pine wood.
Thanks!
Great idea and excellent execution!
I'm glad you like it
This is by far the best river table doupe I have ever seen! Almost makes me believe even i could do it
Sure you can!
Really smart way to bring the cost down to something reasonable. Great work.
Thanks a lot
Viola! Excellent job. Turned out beautiful. Thanks.
Many thanks
This come out much better than I expected! Great job!!!
I'm glad you like it
Awesome work, the result was amazing. I will try a similar table using reclaimed pallet wood instead of MDF. Thanks for the tutorial
Good idea!
You are an artist !! Excellent work ..
Many thanks
Amazing, it looks so natural to me! Great job! Viewing from Guatemala, C.A.
Thank you!!
Brilliant, budget epoxy build 👏
Excellent video, excellent music, excellent planning for trying a veneer!!!!
I liked the base epoxy, the build pour, hand scraper, and your faith and skill that you wouldn't bust through that walnut veneer!
Amazing
Thank you very much! You also like the music 😀
It most definitely is a budget build but not for $75. The mdf alone that is like $100 and the last time I bought veneer which was like 7 or 8 yrs ago and being walnut would cost around $75 and not but least the cost of epoxy. You can't estimate what each price of material and product would cost if you was able to buy them in the exact sizes you used. You have to calculate buying a whole sheet of material and he used 3/4 and 1/2 material
really enjoyed watching....i loved the stop-motion while you were doing the legs
Im glad you like it, it's hard to do...
Beautiful table and a great idea! But, the best takeaway for me was how you used a cheapy wooden stirring stick in your drill! No more tired arms mixing epoxy... Thank you!
I'm glad to help!
Sincerely amazing. I am doing this in a larger scale for a diner table. You gave me the inspiration and momentum to do this not that complicated project!. Thank you very much.
I'm glad to read this!
@@marmotaworks also, how do I look for when searching for the pour out resin? I want to make sure is that type and not the other one. Thanks
@@yoemichelp_yoe deep pour epoxy
This is actually so cool and would love to see some more similar "hacks" to make mdf furniture look high end...my understanding is that old furniture especially in the 60s used lots of veneer
You're right, in the 60s, veneer was everywhere.
Love the build. The plastic spoon as your mixing paddle is amazing hahaha
😁
Excellent work! Far beyond expectation👍🏼
Many thanks
This is actually really nice, thanks for sharing.
Thank you for watching.
Stunning work! Such a great video!🎉❤
Many thanks!
I’m very impressed ! Top job.👏
I'm glad you like it
Super clean!
Thanks
Great job. Looks amazing.
Glad you like it
I enjoyed this process, well done!😊
Many thanks!
Impressive use of MDF! Great looking outcome.
I'm glad you like it
Beautiful ❤ love it!!
Thank you!
Awesome. My only concern would be the bare mdf underneath may absorb moisture and cause bowing. That has happened to one of my projects before.
Don't worry, the underneath mdf is sealed too
That is a good point 👌
@@marmotaworks Did you leave the underneath like that (1) to make it obvious that this was not a real walnut table or (2) to cut costs?
@@dachickenlady because of both things.
Great job brother. Give an honest input. Does it really feel like wood upon touching? I am really inspired. But need to know this
Thank you! It's finished with an epoxy coating, so it doesn't feel like wood. I don't usually prefer using epoxy as a finish, but for this project, it was the safest option.
Goes to show what can be done with little equipment and big imagination…well done this is nice!
Many thanks!
Amazing job, excited about doing my first epoxy project
Go for it
Wow, this is brilliant. I am very inspired to do something similar.
I'm glad to hear that
Very impressive. Not many of us can afford the £5k in black walnut lumbar to start a home project. Nice to see a real life option in a garage rather than wall to wall Festool 2000sqft workshop fantasyland with endless supplies of premium materials
Thank you! But if I'm being honest, I would like to have one of those dream workshops...
Wonderful and inspiring work! 👍👍👍
😄
Awesome video, all around! 10/10 ❤️🔥🦅🪇
😄
Beautiful work!
Thanks!
Love this! Thank you Miguel for sharing a very detailed DIY. I have one question, where did you buy the wood veneer?
Thank you very much.
I bought it from a German online site
quedo preciosa y muy elegante me encanta
Muchas gracias!
Amazing job!!! Great skills!!
Many thanks
great job on this man! genius to use mdf and veneer
Many thanks
Soul satisfying! Art using what the creator selected!
I'm glad you like it
Amazing Work!!!
Thanks!
Thank you very much ! Your video and very good ideas
Thank you
Awesome! Simply Awesome!
Thank you!!
Stunning!
Thanks!
Great video and great work, you should narrate them as well, I think it would make it ever better 🙌
Thanks. I'll think about it
Amazing job!!!!😍
😀
You'll get many compliments on your table. Nice work and video.
Thanks a lot
You're very welcome.@@marmotaworks
I couldn’t resist i subbed
That’s so dope
Thanks for the sub!
Amazing. Definitely on the (to do SOON) list. Never thought go so big with veneer.. subbed
Thanks for the Sub!
Wow it's beautiful looks like something bought in a fancy expensive store you outdid yourself. I do pieces where I glue real pine craft wood from Dollar Tree over particle board people think I bought solid wood furniture, I'm a happy cheapskate 😉
😁
Truly exceptional video and a very nice looking product.
Thank you very much
Hell yeah!! You definitely earn my thumb and subscription!!!😊
Thanks for the sub!
Frickin awesome!
Thanks!!
It seems like for the work that goes into it finding a walnut slab might still break you even. Great craftmanship though!
I like challenges
looks great. kudos!
Thanks!
Cheap materials but AWESOME result. Thanks for idea.
Thanks for watching
@@marmotaworks Please, more videos like this. Making real great stuff out of almost nothing.
Love this video…Thank you for sharing ….
Thanks for watching
Wow that came out way bettwr than i anticipated
Nice to hear that!
Super nice finish. Once you cover it with epoxy, we can hardly tell it was edge banded
😀
EXCELENTE TRABAJO 👏 SALUDOS DESDE ARGENTINA
Muchas gracias. Saludos desde Berlín!
I love this table! Affordable to make, and doesn’t seem horribly difficult to do! How much would something like this one sell for though, being it’s mostly mdf and not actually solid wood?
Thank you!
This table is made to sell it.
Muy bueno, lo haces que parezca muy facil
Cuesta un poco, pero casi todo el mundo puede hacerlo si tiene las herramientas
I would paint the underside black as well to hide the MDF
Yes, I could did it
Nice build 👌
And a nice little earner too I bet !!
Many thanks!
I have about 1k bf of dried 2x4 black walnut wood (un plained rough cut from a mill) and was wondering what its worth per bf and if you were me what is the best/easiest thing to make & sell for a beginner? I really appreciate it . Thanks in advance
You can start with cutting boards.
Sehr schöne und ganz andere Art, so einen Tisch zu fertigen. Preislich unschlagbar, optisch ebenfalls 😁 Video ist schön gemacht und gut erklärt. Mit einem übersichtlichen Maschinenpark, der sich auch preislich (Maschinen von günstigen Herstellern) von anderen Videos und Kanälen abhebt (auf denen man oftmals nur teure Marken zu Gesicht bekommt) Weiter so. 👍
Danke für deine schönen Worte! Es ist schön, dass jemand diese Details bemerkt
Die Werzeuge habe ich auch bemerkt. Solide und schöne Arbeit
Bro thats freaking good work.
Thanks!!
Nice work-made me smile...
I'm glad to read that
Great job with the veneers! Although I have to say that the ends don't look natural. You can see the edges on the corners and there is no end grain on the ends. I think most non-wood workers would be good with the project though 8/10.
Obviously in the corners it is impossible to completely hide the veneer... But 8/10 is OK 😁
Thanks!!
Looks like end-grain veneers are also available. Probably best to buy them in a set alongside the regular veneer, to make sure they match. Then not even a woodworker would be able to tell the difference, unless they were specifically looking for flaws.
Nice work.
Maybe I'll try to make one for the first time... 😁
Go for it!
Outstanding work!
Many thanks!
It looks good, but let's not go on thinking that it can be compared to a piece using original wood. Excellent cheap option.
Of course it can't be compared. As you said, it's a cheap option
I love this! great work. My question is, do they make an endgrain veneer? If yes, why not use that for the ends?
Indeed they do. But for it to match the color, it would have to be from the same tree as the rest, and that's not possible.
You sneaky snake ....LOVE IT!!! 🤘😎
😀
Genius awesome table
Thanks
That finger in the middle really needed the water bottles. Clamping at the ends risks the middle being bowed up.
Looks fab but epoxy the underside so the table won’t cup too easily.
Thank you!
That is a beautiful table.
Thank you!
Pretty interesting project and it turned out beautifully. I would, however, and IMHO, reconsider the choice of music.
Thank you! It's not easy to put on music that everyone likes...
awesome!
Thanks!
That is a lot of work and much harder than if you were to make it from solid scraps of wood. You have so much care and hard work in the edges and not breaking through the veneer when sanding. Well don’t that’s a hell of a lot of careful work
Thanks
Gorgeous results! Would it be possible to do this with rounded edges?
I don't think so
Holy crap this is amazing
I'm glad you like it
Nice outcome for sure. I think using solid walnut in those lengths would not be that much more expensive especially when you consider the time it takes to veneer and the very critical margin or error. For me I always have to consider the time and with that over sanding one corner and the project is essentially ruined. Great craftsmanship for sure. Great job.
Thank you!
Of course, this is a project designed for someone with a lot of time who wants to save some dollars.
I hope you’re still answering questions, as this is several months old.
In your expert opinion, what are the absolute necessities, in tools, when just getting started? And then, what would you add, as you start making a profit?
The majority of what I’m thinking I’ll make, are charcuterie boards and cutting boards. (However, I’m just about to start my first project, so of course, that may change, as time progresses.)
I have: an orbital sander, belt sander, portable table saw, a jigsaw, heat gun, torches, mica powder, and saw horses. (I also have the typical “girl tools.” 😂)
Industrial glue gun, uv lights, pyrographery, drills, hammers, etc…)
I watched another channel construct a featherboard (which was really cool!)
I know being as prepared as possible, is important, so for making wood/resin boards, trays, and small tables, is there anything else I need to start? I’m planning on most projects being the pour over style, for now. If I try to make my own everything I.e. molds, I think I’d be in over my head, and it’s possible I just say, “heck w/ it” and give up, or throw in the towel. ☹️
So my plan is to do as many projects as possible, getting a better grasp on resin, and then making my own molds.
Cutting boards are a good product to start with. I recommend buying the specific tools you need for each project, so you won't purchase unnecessary ones. Second-hand tools are a good option. The only thing I can tell you is that at the beginning, you will make mistakes, but they are necessary for learning. Don't get discouraged!
@@marmotaworks I’m embarrassed by how obvious that was. 😂 But, it’s easy to get completely overwhelmed, when learning a new craft. So thank you for reminding me, to take it slow, and just focus on one project at a time.
I do have one other question, that I thought of while watching a totally different project. Do you know if resin would break down spray foam, once it (the foam) has cured? I was thinking how well it seals, and there are probably some really cool designs by using it.
@@OnlyJalenPhd I have never tried it. Give it a little test to see what happens; perhaps you'll be the first to try it...
Excelente trabalho e economia de recursos. 👏👏👏👏
😊
