In this video I'm going to show you how to build a high quality farmhouse trestle table! If you've always wanted to build a trestle table like this one but aren't sure where to start, BE SURE TO CHECK OUT THE PLANS ABOVE! In the plans I also cover alternative building techniques since I know we don't all have the same shop setup.
This dining table is designed to be easily disassembled and transported. It breaks down into 6 pieces and can be flat packed for shipping. I also show how to add breadboard ends

Hi Mike, the plans don’t talk about the setting you use for the Festool. Are you using the tightest setting for all dominos?
I found this, how deep did you drill the foot for the risers?
After starting to watch this video my attention turned to all those badass expensive tools rather than the table!
Sorry to have distracted you 😂😂 🤦🏻♂️
90% done with this build using walnut on a job commissioned by a church. Plans are clear, thorough, and professional. They also include a couple of updates not shown in the video. Thanks Mike for taking the considerable amount of time to document how you built this well-designed, well-crafted table! I'll be looking through your build videos for other projects that I might want to build.
Oh man, this table in Walnut would be awesome! Glad you found the plans easy to follow 👊 Happy building!
Thank you so much! I've built a few tables and this video taught me so many techniques that I can use to make future builds go more smoothly.
You're very welcome, I'm glad the video was helpful! Happy building!
Sou apaixonada em diy de móveis 🥰 great job 🤌
Great video, Mike! Really helps us understand what's needed for a table like this to turn out so great. Definitely going to work some of your methods into our production process!
Thank you very much! I'm glad it helped y'all out!
Wow, amazing job on the table!!!
Thank you so much! That high performance epoxy is always coming in handy! Can't wait to do a deep pour accent on an upcoming project! 😃😃😃
Sou apaixonada em diy de móveis 🥰 great job
Loved seeing this build come to life Mike! Well done. Thanks for using Rubio!
Thank you so much! It was a blast to build👍👍 Absolutely! Thank you for all of your advice while my client and I were trying to get the perfect color!
Just got a plan, excited to build a few. Looking forward to reading the plans.
Plus your video is extremely helpful. Thank you for the extra effort it took into making it.
Thank you very much! Happy building and let me know if you have any questions 👍🏻👍🏻
Great build Mike! Love these videos man!
Thank you so much Justin! The encouragement is greatly appreciated 👍🏻👊🏻
Awesome Mike! A bit to advanced, since I'm a amateur woodworker, but i know i can modify your ideas/suggestions to fit mine. Once again, your work is immaculate and an inspiration to us rookies. keep up the great work!
Thank you Lupe! So glad to hear the build inspired you 👍🏻👍🏻
We are currently looking into either buying or creating our own farm style table. Thanks for you inspiration!
That's awesome! I have plans in the description if you choose to build 👍🏻. If you opt to purchase one I'd be happy to build it for you! Shoot me an email at mike@woodshopmike.com if you go that route 😃😃
@@WoodshopMike hi Mike. I m interested in purchasing one. How much would it cost? Thank you
Absolutely gorgeous! Well done!
Thank you very much!
You have a well-equipped shop for carpentry projects like this. Your design appears very thorough and you added all the construction details to ensure this table doesn't begin to loosen over time. Very nice radius feature on the feet of the table and I like your attachment method of utilizing two boards on either side of the centerline of the table. Very professional look and construction. Outstanding job and final finish.
Thank you so much! It was a fun build 😃
Lindíssima mesa arrasou. 👏👏👏👏
I've been struggling to find a style table I like. I think you're video sold me on one.
Glad to hear it! Happy building👍🏻👍🏻
Gorgeous work man.... loved this. Will “try to build this” 😂
Thank you very much! Best of luck 👍🏻😃
Belíssimo e Impressionante Trabalho. Simplesmente Perfeito. Sta Catarina - Brasil
Awesome table!! I just bought your plans. I’m going to work on this for my dining room!! Going to be fun!! This and your screen door! Need to make one of those too!
Thank you very much, I'm glad you like the table! Happy building!
One of the Most PROFESSIONAL workmanship I have seen so far.
This guy is like a Machinist, but works on Wood.
Excellent job....
Thank you very much Raymond!
A farmhouse tressle table fit for Buckingham Palace. Wow! Great job.
Thank you very much!
Great looking table Mike!! Really love how you designed and assembled to base. Planning on purchasing your plans in a couple months when I have time to build this for my kitchen.
Thank you very much! It is a fun one to build 👍🏻
Wow, that is absolutely beautiful.
Thank you very much!
AWESOME JOB!
Thank you very much!
i know this vid is older, but heres a tip for anyone else that may do this is for future - for the center mortise on your vertical post, mill up a piece matching the mortise dimension and wrap in packkng tape and place in there, will keep those boards aligned with the mortise and pull out easily 👍
That is a solid tip! Thanks for sharing 👊👊
I have some of the lights that you used @4;27 and they're fantastic. I just found some smaller, square ones that have magnets on the back and love those too.
Yeah those lights are awesome!
Ohlala.
So expressive and perfect design for me..
I love it that Dinning table..
Thank you! It's one of my favorites!
I reference to keeping the boards from moving during clamping, I suggest sprinkling coarse salt into the glue when you spread it...you can still align the boards but they won't move when you apply the clamps.
Paying attention is better than salt
What a great video awesome job documenting the process
Thank you!
Très belle table merci pour cet vidéo
Dude you are an All-Star .... All your work is impeccable ! :-) Dennis
Thank you very much! I really appreciate you watching and commenting. 😃😃
My god that looks sturdy. I love the technique using the long c-clamp to drive in the dowel at 24:23, never seen that before.
Yeah it's a stout table for sure! Yeah that or an f style clamp would do the job well👍👍
Really super table - I mad the mistake of showing my wife and she wants one. Thank you so much for sharing
Thank you very much! Sounds like you'll have a project on your hands 😃😃
Woodshop Mike thanks, yes looks like it once I get the kitchen bookshelves done
Wow that's beautiful! Well done! Lots of attention to detail.
Thank you so much! It's one of my favorites to date 😀
Grt Build.... keep up!!
Thank you very much!
Really beautiful table! I had a question about the bread board. Wouldn't gluing that peace to all the boards of the table top restrict expansion and contraction?
Thank you Ryan! Yes that would restrict movement and potentially cause the table top to split. I thought I mentioned only gluing the center 3rd of the dominos into the breadboard in the video... If not my bad 👍🏻. Thank you for watching!
@@WoodshopMike did you leave some space on the others dominos holes you didn't glued, for movement?
@@robrey468 it looks like he adjusted the domino to cut a bigger hole
Great work guys!! Keep it up.
Thank you very much!
Don't know too many DIYers that have all this pro equipment
This was masterful craftmanship here. Thoroughly enjoyed watching this. Thank you very much, indeed.
Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed the build!
I love this table. Do you also have matching plans for a bench to go with the table? Thanks
Hi Lyle, thank you very much! I do not have plans for a bench, but thank you for asking 😃😃
Great build Mike. Any suggestions for us who don’t have a Domino, jointer or planer? I really want to build this table. Thanks and keep up the great work.
Yes absolutely! As far as the Domino goes, I cover alternative joinery options in the plans. I built furniture for years without a jointer. You can take several skim cuts on the tablesaw flipping the board each time to systematically true up each edge. Assuming you want to build from something other than pine, you can build a planer box to use with a router (what I did in the highschool days) to thickness your boards or just buy surfaced lumber at your local supplier. If you're wanting to build with dimensional lumber then I'd select only working from 2x6s or larger as these are almost always straighter than 2x4s.
I hope that helps! If you have any other questions fire away 👍🏻👍🏻
Pretty nice sir!
Thank you very much Jeff! 👍🏻😃
Amaizing table great job👌👍
Thank you so much!
Awesome table and excellent workmanship
Thank you very much!
Sweet .. nice job.
Thank you very much!
Beautiful table Mike! I love how you did the breadboards. I noticed you did them reverse of what a lot of other TH-camrs do... You locked all the tenons on the breadboard side and left the table end for floating? Is that better than the reverse? I also just bought your plans because I'm desperately trying to learn how to do the Domino on those mitered pieces.
Thank you! You can lock them in either piece, honestly. Thanks for purchasing the plans! Hit me up if you have any questions along the way and happy woodworking!
Nice well made project.
Thank you very much! 😃
Nice music video, love your work and table.
Thank you very much!
Awesome table
Thank you very much! 👍🏻👊🏻
Well done. Nice design. I really like how you mounted the top.
Thank you very much Bob👍👍
Stunning table new sub
Thank you very much!
Carpenters are smart people ,beautiful job.
Thank you so much!
Hi Mike, great content and a lovely finished project. I've never seen that "restorer" used before, what do you find it excels at/where is it most useful in the workshop? Many thanks!
Thanks Adam! I mainly use the restorer for distressing wood. Another big use for the tool is stripping finishes and doing restoration work on cars.
Mike, what wheel or grit are you using on the table top is this video on your restorer?
Beautiful table
Thank you very much!
great job!!
Thank you!
Great video, Love all of the equipment in your shop!
Thank you very much! 👍👍
Highly professional done. I like it. It is inspiration for me. Good luck!
Thank you very much!
Can you share how you found out your angles? I have the hardest time figuring them out! Thank you!
I cheated and drew it up in CAD 😂. I have plans that are linked in the description if you're interested 👍🏻👍🏻
Have you ever used clamping cauls for table top glue ups? Do you find them useful or necessary in some situations vs. others? I'm doing my own build and I'm reading about using them to keep all the boards flush during glue up. Thoughts? Appreciate it.
I've used them in the past mainly for gluing guitar tops and other thin materials. For a table top you can put clamps on each glue seam or use cauls. If you have a biscuit joiner or domino cauls aren't necessary
Wow...I really enjoyed watching it.....
Keep uploading good stuff...
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it!
hey Mike! retired Corpsman w/no carpentry experience but good w/my hands. was looking for something to keep me busy and making a few bucks won't hurt either. starting w/basics - flags, corn hole boards, blanket ladders, cutting boards, etc... the day I can make a table like this will be a happy one and I'm an optimist so will let you know. Beautiful video... I'm subscribed, joined and rang the bell... God Bless
Thank you so much Thomas! I'm thrilled you enjoyed the video and look forward to hearing when you build a table! God bless you too sir 🙏
@@WoodshopMike Happy Fathers Day -- if it applies
It does, thank you. Same to you!
artistry work . thank you for sharing.
Thank you very much! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent work
Thank you!
Magnifique table
Thank you so much!
That was a great work done! I enjoyed watching your videos. Do you provide any workshops?
Thank you very much! No, I don't offer workshops at this time, but thank you for asking 👍🏻👍🏻
That is super gorgeous!
Thank you! It's one of my favorites👊
beautiful table, looks very strong and heavy! just one question, but without any screws on the 'x' legs, wouldn't the strength only relies on those tiny wooden dowels?
Thank you so much! The pieces that make the "x" are mainly decorative. They're joined with dominos though so they are very strong!
Great video man. Very helpful. Random question for you, do remember about how many board feet of lumber you had to get in order to make the table? Would that be in your build plans?
Thank you very much Heath! Yes that information is in the build plans! I honestly don't recall how much I ordered 🤦🏻♂️
Awesome. Just got the plans. Thanks man.
Thank you very much for your support!
That’s such a nice shop you have for a master wood worker you are a true craftsman! Tom R
Thank you very much Tom! I'm certainly blessed to have the shop space that I do 😃
Beautiful
Thank you! 😃
Very nice build, looks like Ash? How wide is the stretcher? Looks like about 6”. Im building a trestle table out of Ash 72”x40” expandable to 102” via two 15” leafs. Top is 1 1/2” thick and heavy as hell lol. Great looking table.
Yes it's made of Ash and crazy heavy! I believe that stretcher is 6". Thanks for the complements 👍🏻
Beautiful BUILD!! Your Shop is giving me a serious case of Envy! I was curious about a step you did and was wondering if you help me understand the mindset. 6:22 of the video, you use the plunge saw to clean up the Bread Boards. I am wondering why you didn't clean up both the bread boards and the side of the table at the same time to avoid having to get the bread board trimmed up perfectly?
Thank you very much! You can certainly trim the breadboards and table to size at the same time. That's actually how I do it most of the time but for some reason I didn't in this build 😂
Very good table. I don't think I'd care to live if it wasn't for woodworking.
Thank you very much and I totally agree🤣
@@WoodshopMike I went to a funeral in FL today and I saw a huge fallen oak. I wish I could've taken it home.
I know the feeling. I sometimes regret not bringing the chainsaw and trailer on trips🤣. sorry for you lose.
Man that came out nice!!!
Thank you! Client loves it 😃😃
Absolutely love this table and watching this video. Most of us don't have a workshop like you have. Do you plans work for those of us with the basic tools?
Thank you so much! Yes you can build the table with basic tools it just takes a bit longer. Happy to answer any questions you may have 👍
Amazing!
Thank you very much!
Great build! I’m just starting mine and I’m using ash just like you did. I’m starting by building two matching benches, so I’m learning all the tricks before I do the big table. I’m doing classic breadboards and using all mortise & tenon joints ( no Dominos or pocket holes). What stain & finish did you use?
Sounds awesome, have fun! I used Rubio Monocoat in the color chocolate
The table you made looks very solid. It can be used for life. It's great that you shared the plans. Thanks. Lastly, I was wondering how many kg is this table?
Thank you very much, the table is solid indeed! It weighs about 250lbs.
Do you have a beginner video for the various tools, cuts and joins?
I don't, but it's on my list! Thank you for watching 😃😃
Fantastic build. Any idea what the finished table weighed?
It's around 350 😬😬
Nice vid and pro work. I'm interested to know what that brush or buffing machine you were using? It looks like it really raises the wood grain.
I guess its called a restorer after reading some of the comments
Thank you very much 👍🏻👊🏻
Yes you're correct, it's the restorer. It does an awesome job adding character to wood. It doesn't raise the grain though. It actually removes the soft wood in the grain. 👍🏻👍🏻
Great job! Awesome shop, what size hole did you drill for the Threaded inserts? I usually use 1/4 inch inserts and epoxy them in. If you did not use 1/4 inch do you know the drill bit size that I would use to drill for a 1/4 inch insert?
Thank you very much! I did use 1/4-20 inserts but I don't remember the exact size I used. The way I determine my drill size though is by measuring the shank (solid portion "inside" the threads) and using the closest drill size. I've never needed to super glue or epoxy them in fwiw. Cheers!
@24:56 i literally laughed out loud, yeah sure man lol Looks freaking amazing and enjoyed the video :)
Glad I could entertain ya! 😂😂 Thanks, I'm super happy with how it turned out!
Nice job, do your plans include how to finish the table the same as you built, if not would you be willing to share what products and method, thanks!
Hi Claire! The plans don't work that out, but I'm more than happy to answer any questions you have! I used Rubio Monocoat "chocolate" (I think it's linked in the description).
Awesome job! I love the thickness of the wood, all around. I love pretty much all of the ways the base comes together. The only thing I would do differently personally, I would round the table top corners about 4" to 6" radius. And, I would give most all the other edges at least a 1/4" radius. I do NOT like sharp edges. The more I look at this table, the more I would say this is my dream dining table, including the stain. Again, awesome. I want something that adults could comfortably get up and dance on it. Thank you for this video! Peace.
Thank you very much David! I think an entire family could dance on this table 😃😃
12:41 is so satisfying lol
LOL, I know right! 😃😃
Also. what kind of lumber are YOU using for this table. Really nice work btw.
Thank you so much! I built this from Ash
Wow Amazing job and beautiful shop. #wheelzwoodworking
Thank you!
Beautiful table; what was the hydraulic lift thing you had to get the table up on your bench? I definitely need one of those!
Thank you! It's from harbor freight 👍🏻👍🏻
It’s a bike / lawnmower lift. Works great for lifting materials in the shop
So true 👊🏻👊🏻
Great job. You're an artist. What kind of wood did you use?
Thank you very much. This table is made of Ash.
Mike Great Video... I am not a seasoned woodworker so I will need the plans for the build I am planning as soon as I get my kiln up and running so I can dry the lumber since I will be cutting walnut logs for this. How do I go about getting the plans ? didn't see that anywhere so far..
Hi Dale! Sounds like you have some fun ahead of you! The plans are linked in the description👍🏻👍🏻
@@WoodshopMike found it ! ordered them already!! :) Thanks! Yes this will be a lot of work but fun work!! it's for a close friend!
Good tutorial and beautiful table. When you were hand sanding the top, in one part looked like you were using a random orbit sander in a later part it looked like a small drum sander. Can you identify what it is?
Thank you very much! Yes, the tool you're referring to is called the restorer. It's linked in the description👍
Very nice
Thank you 👍🏻👍🏻
great job
Thank you!
Amazing. What was your overhang? Thanks
Thanks Leon! My plans have all the details 👍🏻👍🏻
Hello mike. What dimensions are the center posts with the mortise? And how did you cut them square? I really like the thickness of all the pieces not to skinny not to beefy. Again great video.
Thank you very much! I have plans linked in the description that give all of the details!
Hi Mike, Great stuff. I wanted to ask about the rotary brush tool you use after sanding. What is it? What does it do? Cheers, Tim
Thank you so much! The tool is called the restorer, I believe I have a link in the description just so you know👍
I use the wire brush and nylon brush drums to give the Ash lumber a more intense texture.
Easy money with the right tools 👍🏽
Good tools definitely make the job faster👍🏻👍🏻
By any chance are you able to make one of these for my new bride and I? We’ve been looking all over for the perfect table for our new home and we’ve had no luck. I made a dog gate for the side yard today, but I don’t have nearly enough tools to make this for her.
I'd love to! Shoot an email over to mike@woodshopmike.com and we can discuss!
