I’ve been planning on getting a 3x3 jig but I have SOOO much other stuff to get before that. Hey JKM - when are the router planes going to be back in stock? Thanks! Love both you guys! Thanks for the inspiration.
People forget what dedication filming takes. It’s not just the woodwork, it’s moving a camera or three, talking to the camera (and sounding fluent in every take), and just, well, having a life. Chapeau, Mr J. Two beautiful cat perches, ahem, tables. I’m always a sucker for a sliding dovetail joint.
Boy I know this is true. I took like 45 hours of video of a couple of my projects and I got everything I needed for making TH-cam videos and I started with a short to get me warmed up and I think I had 3-4 hrs into my 1 minute short and I haven’t had the guts to tackle a long video yet. Respect
@@dreambuild2022 The struggle is real. It's always best to have too much footage rather than not enough, but it can be overwhelming at times. Just take it one bite at a time!
RE; threaded insert install. Since you drilled the holes for them in the drill press, chuck up the approprite size Allen wrench in the drill press, and use the chuck to install the inserts. Machine shop trick!
You can certainly do that, but I also find using a T-handle Allen wrench works very well. And some drill presses don’t have a deep enough throat to accommodate the position of all inserts since the back post limits how far you can push your material back on your drill press table. 👍🏻
Sleep is productuve because the brain consolidates memories, and resolves issues. It like a plane blade. its never going to be in use 24/7, but sharpen it, and look after it and the plane it sits in, and when your ready to use it, it will be productive to use and cut well. That's my 2 cents doing nights and rotating shift work for a couple of decades.
Great workmanship as always Keith! And I absolutely agree that the fillet at the top of the table looks nice, and protects the edge. Love seeing Jerry taking an active role while Lola observes from her thrown.
Oh my Garsh, when the cat threw head back and coyotes howled, my German Shepherd took off out the dog door and went running to the hedgerow, where she expected to find mama coyote and her babies.
Your tips were all gold in this one, man. I always walk away from your vids with a few new tricks stored in the memory bank. Thanks for the effort and killer work as always!
Thank you for the video Keith. What do you do with the center cathedral pieces once discarded? Do you have a good use it? If so, what do is one example if you don't mind.
I love all your content Keith. Having the right tools for the job goes a long ways. That being said I’m slowly collecting the good tools. Keep the great ideas coming.
Look into the jasper hole jigs. Not very expensive, extremely accurate, you can make circles/holes in 1/16" incriments, and it would be significantly faster than building a jig everytime. Highly recommend!
i think this was a good challenge for you as you're used to taking your time with client work. looking forward to your non-client work content this year!
@@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking another question, I am building a fliptop cart. I wanted my router table to be on one side. I thought about cutting in dog holes and using dog clamps to hold the router table in place. I am not sure if dog clamps work upside down though. Any thoughts?
I would love to see you build some walnut speakers for a vinyl console, I think that with the quality and dedication you put into building each piece of furniture they would look great you should consider it 😊😊 i love watching your videos keep uploading more pleas😁😁
Thanks for sharing Keith. Learned some things and got a really good refresher on some other things. They came out awesome. You are right about using the original wax paper. When I would run out of dry mounting paper I would use Reynold's wax paper. Always held everything in place. Now I need to talk my wife into making some cookies.
You should get your self a can of woodslide from wurth, spray on the planner bed and wipe of any excess if needed. I also spray the spiral cutter block with it as is stops pitch building up on the knifes. Fast easy and convenient especially if needed half way through a project.
@@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking I don’t know how you do it! It’s one thing to build for a living but to film too! I’m just so glad you do though and I learn a lot so thank you
Keith, I love that walnut that you used, but I like more, how you played with the cuts, to fit the grains. You have some beautiful little tables and Jerry seems to have passed a good quality and comfort check. I will not tire of telling you that that monaco blonde looks beautiful, to see a beautiful grain in the wood. Although you can't do it with a paint gun. Happy new year and a big hug.
Wouldnt it be easier to make the upright out of one piece then cut the angled sides? Even if you had to glue a few pieces to make a big enough piece for the solid upright.
@@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking I hope you do. There's great power and learning when we challenges ourselves to do things we don't normally do. And it's good entertainment too!
Keith here is a tip I hope you will use next time. Use some thin strips of cardboard in between your hose clamp and your material, it eliminates the marring of your material.
Fantastic video Keith! On the timer you should have stopped it when you weren’t working. Then you would have built them in 48 hours! Anyways, I learned quite a lot. I have never thought about grain direction and how to cut the boards to get the grain to match on the legs! Thanks for sharing this!
6:57 - wait, isn't it the opposite? (if the sharp edge is under your fence, you will be cutting slightly bigger than expected, so you'd want to compensate by making the fence read a bit tight?)
Damn Keith you've gotten so darn good at this Woodworking thing. Those would have taken me months 😂. Great looking final result, I love the straight grain look as well that technique you used to achieve it is a good one.
I do color samples. Buy i typically only work with walnut and white oak, so it's Walnut or Castle Brown for walnut and some sort of white variant for white oak (Cotton white/Mist/White 5%)
Hey Keith, What’s the run down on your dust collector hose adapter? I have the same one and have been trying to find a better solution than the one it came with. I have limited space so your 90 up looks ideal

Please keep creating videos. You’re such an inspiration to those of us hobbyists. I always learn from you every time I watch. Thanks
Thanks so much! More videos on the way! 👍
I like how you show the little things that didn’t go quite right and how you work through the problem. Thanks for another inspiring build!
Glad you enjoyed it! And thanks for the comment. 👍🏻
"I'm going to use minimal tools"...Here is my 9000 dollar jointer/planer combo....
😂 your dealer is ripping you off.
So good Keith. Love all the stop blocks! a 3x3 trim router jig is on the way so you don't have to make those circle cutting jigs every time ;-)
THanks JKatz! And yes, the 3x3 jig is perfect, but wanted to show people how to make a quick down and dirty one 😜
I’ve been planning on getting a 3x3 jig but I have SOOO much other stuff to get before that. Hey JKM - when are the router planes going to be back in stock? Thanks! Love both you guys! Thanks for the inspiration.

@KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking you're right, my little bench top drill only has about 6".
you're the man Keith!
Thank you sir!
I would still call this a win. You can't count sleep in productive time! Not even big businesses do that. You earned the win!
Thank you! I agree. I am still happy with outcome, despite being a few hours past my self-imposed deadline. 😜

Bahahahaha...that had ME howling! I'm just glad your dog didn't tear up the house looking for that coyote 😜😹
Wonderful job Keith. Good to see that Jerry thinks so too. I think you may have to let him present the next one.
haha. Maybe I will! He's definitely not camera shy 😹
Great job, Keith. I've been watching Joe Thiele for as long as I've been enjoying your videos. Great to see you working "together".
Awesome, thank you Eric! Joe is a fantastic furniture maker…just wish he lived out in the east coast so we could do a build together!
Fantastic video, Keith! I always appreciate the details in your videos. Keep up the great work and can’t wait to see more of your content this year!
Thanks Chris! That’s very kind of you. More videos definitely on the way! 😹
I like using rubber strapping or thin strips of bike tire tubes for clamping pressure.
👍🏻👍🏻
Beautiful work. Man you've got some tools Dude.
Thanks! 😎
The tables turned out amazing Keith great job building two tables in 50 hours. Would be a great table to build thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much! I greatly appreciate it 👍

Thank you for the video Keith. What do you do with the center cathedral pieces once discarded? Do you have a good use it? If so, what do is one example if you don't mind.
Thanks John! I give those scraps to a friend of mine. He uses them in cutting boards or his fire pit 😬
Parabéns, maravilhosas.
Thanks! 😎
I love all your content Keith. Having the right tools for the job goes a long ways. That being said I’m slowly collecting the good tools. Keep the great ideas coming.
Right on, Brock! Thanks man. Building a workshop takes years so enjoy the process!
I really like the look with having the small flat above the 15 degree bevel. Even if tooling wasn't an issue I would still want it that way.
Right on! Definitely a matter of taste and preference on that detail. I like both, but it’s a total coin flip for me 😂
I've watched Keith's videos multiple times always learning something new.
Thanks Steve! Glad you find them helpful. Thanks for the support!

Many thanks! And the furballs thank you, too! 😺😺
Where did you get the deep clamps? Thanks, great video.

See I would have done 48 hrs minus sleep, meal, and bathroom breaks so you definitely finish way under time by my accounting.
Now that’s a technicality I can get on board with 😜😂
30:00 Jerry breaks the 4th wall with a "Who the hell is he talking to?" look. 🤣

Beautiful as always Keith. Love the 'speed build' - I'm sure that wasn't easy for you given your normal insane attention to detail. ;)
Thanks Bob! Definitely out of my normal speed (or lack of) comfort zone 😂. I did enjoy the challenge, though. Might have to do another one!

Wonderful video for today ☺☺
Thank you! 😃
Great looking tables, I know what a pain it is to move a camera around, and takes any job 2-3 times as long to finish. Great job
Thanks dude! Glad to hear you can relate! 😜👊
Great vid. I'd bet you could have done it in 42 hours without the shooting.
Sounds about right!
Very simple but very beautiful
Thank you!
Keith here is a tip I hope you will use next time. Use some thin strips of cardboard in between your hose clamp and your material, it eliminates the marring of your material.
Great tip! I love it. Thanks!!
Keith, could you tell me what brand or type of dust mask you are using and would you recommend it? Thanks
RZ mask. No, I wouldn’t. 😂. Velcro is weak and it’s just uncomfortable
Thanks so much!

Hey Keith, Awesome stuff! Was that setup bar a one time tool from Woodpeckers? I can’t find it anywhere! I want one for myself!
They aren’t a one time tool anymore… Just search set up blocks on the Woodpeckers site
Love your videos. By any chance would you know the brand/model of the mitre gage that you use for tenons? Thanks
Thanks! Jessem.
Really Nice job !! 48h … lol
At the price of the hour in carpentry it is not saleable.... It's sad.
Well, it wasn’t 48 working hours 😜
6:57 - wait, isn't it the opposite? (if the sharp edge is under your fence, you will be cutting slightly bigger than expected, so you'd want to compensate by making the fence read a bit tight?)
Maybe...😂. Either way, I guess 1/32" makes no difference in this case 😜
Great video

Is laying everything out for straightgrain an aesthetic choice, or a quality choice in terms of twisting or seasonal swelling?
Both! It looks great and it’s more stable
