Thanks for the very kind words! I have been woodworking in some capacity since I was a child, around 40 years, and I’m still not a master yet, but I really enjoy it. Keep at it. This project was a once in a lifetime opportunity for me to give back to my hero, and I loved every minute. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@thetennesseetinkerer Thanks for the reply. Can you make a video on table saw safety at some point? I know there are dozens of videos on TH-cam that discuss it already but was curious to hear your input.

Hello my friend, Very nice design. You've made a wonderful table out of cherry wood. I love the working technique. You did a great job. A decorative and ostentatious table. Congratulations. Thank you for sharing. In my latest video, I made myself a work table out of yellow pine. See you soon. Stay healthy and happy. Big greetings. Kind regards.
Thank you my friend. I enjoyed making this. I just watched your desk video. It turned out very beautiful as well. Thank you for watching mine and commenting.

@@thetennesseetinkerer You're welcome. see you anytime. Thank you. Big greetings.
I started off watching this video thinking that it's just another cherry table video. I was surprised by the things I learned. 1. Making a bigger top by using table saw rip cuts instead of bandsaw 2. Awesome idea about clamping a vertical board and spacer for leg to apron pocket screws 3. One of the only videos I've seen using flush drawer slide runners to use steel slides instead of making things complex 4. Pencil holder inside desk. And finally you topped it off with a story about your hero... Overall awesome job on the video and I'm very happy to have seen it and will save it for coming back for reference.. awesome work. One question is the table top looked good but was it just 3/4 in top or more like 1in thick?.. thanks
Wow thank you so much for all the kind words! I’m so happy you enjoyed this and found it useful! As far as ripping the top with the table saw, I do this because my band saw is old and not powerful or accurate enough to resaw thick boards. The table saw in the video was my old contractor saw that has since been replaced with a larger cabinet saw, but it gave me 20 years of excellent use. By first ripping the wide boards down to narrower ones, it allowed me to resaw them using the table saw. Plus as I said in the video, it also made the widths uniform and made the top more stable. That top was thicker than 3/4”. Probably closer to 1-1/4” but it’s been so long I don’t remember exactly. As far as the skirt spacer, I’m always looking for easy and accurate ways to get the job done. I’ve used both wood slides and metal slides on drawers in the past, but for this I thought metal was most functional. Anyway, thank you again for watching and taking the time to comment. It means so much.
Thank you Larry! It was a fun one to build and it meant a lot to be able to give it to my woodworking mentor. Thanks for leaving a comment and watching! I can always count on you to leave me kind words. It is greatly appreciated.
Ronny, I am not familiar with Jeffries, but the next time we are in town for a UT game or passing through going to the mountains, we will have to stop. Thanks for the comment and the kind words. It's good to be posting videos after a few months. I have several filmed and edited, so you should be seeing more coming out in the near future. Thank you for watching!
@@thetennesseetinkerer They have a good web page and if you want to check on what they have the best thing to do is IM them on Facebook. Not open Sun or Mon. Well laid out and they encourage just going through and looking!
Honestly, I don't know. I was waiting on help from a metal fabricator friend of mine, and that has never panned out. Eventually I will resume it. Thanks for the question and for watching.
I assume you meant to say mortise and TENONS, not tenants. Regardless, I’m confident my desk will outlast us both, even though it is assembled with the dreaded pocket screw. Thanks for watching and being disappointed in me!
Mark, I watch plenty of videos with mortise and tenon joints, but I’m not sure what that has to do with anything. I could have done that joint, and I know how to do that joint, but for various reasons I chose not to. I still will never understand someone’s need to take the time and post negative comments on a video. I understand if you would have done it differently, but to take time out of your day to specifically point that out in a negative way is confounding to me. I make videos to share with people because it brings me joy. I hope to spread that joy to others in sharing them, and I hope that you can appreciate that. Thank you for watching regardless.
@@thetennesseetinkerer look at as constructive criticism. It wasn't meant to be negative and I apologize if you took it that way. I really liked the table and was into watching the video until you whipped out the pocket screws. Again sorry if it upset you.
Beautiful desk!
Thank you!
Wonderful work! Am a brand new woodworker, hopefully I can eventually be able to do a project like this!

Nice looking table ! Good job!
Thank you Kevin. It was a special project for me. Thanks for the kind words!
Have you checked out Jeffries wood works in Knoxville? Worth the drive over here! Good seeing you back in the YT!

When are you gonna make more adult power wheels videos

Pocket screws rather than mortise & tenants? So disappointed

@@thetennesseetinkerer good, you can spell. Hopefully you can read as well. Plenty of examples on the proper mortise & tenon joints
