I dont normally comment on TH-cam videos, but I thought I'd make an exception just to show my support for a decent, honest bloke, doing something he loves and putting himself out there in pursuit of his goals! I've just finished watching (and subsequently unsubscribed to their channel) a video from over the pond in which the makers were using their "creativity" to build things using CNC machines and such like, whilst being given everything for free from various manufacturers in return for selling their credibility and basically churning out adverts for their sponsors. Keith's videos are honest, achievable and more importantly, he uses actual "creativity" and skill to achieve his results..... nice work fella. Rant. Over.
A lovely piece of work, Keith [Your muse was smiling down on you - its a lovely feeling when that happens!] The mixture of retro features knit nicely together, promoting that sweet herringbone pattern with its delicious curlovers around the edge. Please don't complain that the lap joint was a bit tight - I've made loose ones and that ruins everything!
For a table that you didn't have any plan or an idea of making in the first place, i would say you did a Brilliant job with the build, love the Pattern the Herring Bone design really stands out. Well done Keith. Barry (Wirral, ENG)
As a fellow woodworker I understand what you mean about the MDF edge lol everyone finds it almost sacrilegious but I quite like the way the MDF edge contrasts the solid wood grain , and the way you built it it should last a lifetime . I think it gets a bad reputation because of all the cheap store bought furniture they build out of it but I have quite a few things built from MDF that I made years ago that are still in brilliant shape. Amazing work Keith cant wait for the next installment!
A very nice result from random cuts in the workshop. Funny, I sometimes start like that with a vague idea and see what the finish result is. Nice use of the table saw to cut a round...
A nice Theme from Mahogany. Between the lines a lot of helpful tips and tricks. Thanks for sharing. Ebony combined with beech should be nice as well. Then you can make some zebra waved patterns.
Keith, did you consider putting a bevel on the underside of the table top?, That would have lightened the top up and minimized the amount of MDF showing. Nice table.
👍Nice, impromptu project. Using scraps, off cuts etc is always satisfying. I have a few sacks full of reclaimed small grade oak parquet flooring that Im looking forward using to get 2 similar side tables and a small coffee table from, time permitting.
A really nice project, well done. Did you chamfer the edges of the feet to prevent tear out when the table is dragged across the floor? It would have been nice to hide the screw heads with a plug even though they are out of sight IMHO...
Mate . I've followed your vids since the beginning and honestly mate you should be proud of how much and how far you have come in your woodworking and video making. Well done buddy good on you. The table looks great mate . How are you finding the Freud blades?
Thank you! The Freud blades are excellent but I’ve not tried many different ones to compare with. I think I’ll keep buying them though once I find something that works well I tend to stick with it
I would probably have used a chamfer or round-over router bit to minimize the MDF substrate when viewed from the upper angles, also minimizing the apparent thickness of the top. Nicely done though, really good use of scrap materials to make a classy looking project.
Turned out to be a really nice table. I think a shallow champher (like a pannel raising bit) would also have been good on the underside to give the table a slim look and hide the MDF. I dont mean this as a critisims of your work just a point of discussion.
Nice work mate. U must come across some decent scrap wood. All seems to be hardwood. Any tips I may not of thought about for getting good quality free wood
Using mahogany to make a step-stool because it's sturdy/tough is like using Uranium to make dumbbells because it's heavy. Both are nice looking and functional projects though.
The only thing that I didn't like about the table was the fact that the top and bottom of the legs aren't lined up. But other than that, it looks great!
I'm on the fence about this table. Positive criticism: I like the design of the table. The herringbone pattern with the round of the top gives great visual appeal. The MDF base for the top works like you said, but it also adds needed contrast. For scrap wood this turned out great. Where I am unsure about this project... Not negative, but hopefully it is constructive: the gaps you left in the herringbone stand out too much and distract from the overall appeal mentioned above. This can be solved through the use of jointer. (Not sure if you have one, haven't been watching your channel long.) Also, I think your miter saw is off a few degrees, that might have added to the gaps. As for the router bits, you can sharpen them if you have good stones that are thin. I do it to mine. I can usually make a cheap bit last longer this way. It eliminates most of the burning you see in the wood.
I really like it Keith! This would be a good companion piece for the Jewelry Box I made my granddaughter a few years ago. This started out as a bandsaw box but I changed it midstream. lumberjocks.com/projects/114481

That's the best explanation of the circle cutting technique I've ever seen. Thank you for that!

The herringbone pattern is always classic and beautiful. Sometimes the best projects are the ones that come to you as you're doing them.
Really nice! Love the look of the table, great use of off-cuts!
Your craftsmanship and imagination are amazing!

Cheers Barry!
Great work, that turned out beautifully!
Very nice
All in all I'd say that is a nice little table mate. Even if you stood a vase of flowers on it, it'd stand out... nice job
That is a beautiful table top.
Very cool!!! Almost 3-D looking.
Incredible piece of work 👍🏼

Pretty nice build! Well done.
That's a lovely looking table. Well done
Beautiful piece of furniture👍
The contrasting wood colours on the table top look superb. What a wonderful accident :)
Nice one Keith, looks brilliant!
Beautiful. I’m loving the herringbone pattern at the moment. Very elegantly done.
Cheers Matt 👍
The table looks great! Super job. Best wishes
Keith, did you consider putting a bevel on the underside of the table top?, That would have lightened the top up and minimized the amount of MDF showing. Nice table.
That's exactly what I thought
Nice idea, didn’t occur at the time
Nice table Keith. I use the same table saw method for cutting circles. Your right you do need to be very carefully when doing it 👍
Yeah I wasn’t sure about putting it out there but hopefully people do as I say and not as I do!
Excellent work!
Thanks for your efforts, very nice coffee ☕ table.
Great job Keith 👍🏻
Thats a great looking table. Well done!
It looks awesome
Nice job, Kieth!
Are accidental tables like occasional tables but a bit more dangerous? LOL.
That turned out pretty bloody brilliantly, mate👍
It's so cool
I love the idea. Thanks bro
looks good Keith.
It's beautiful!
Nice Table Keith good job really pops that herring bone pattern !!!
Nice job I like the 3/D affect on the top nice job 👍👍
👍Nice, impromptu project. Using scraps, off cuts etc is always satisfying. I have a few sacks full of reclaimed small grade oak parquet flooring that Im looking forward using to get 2 similar side tables and a small coffee table from, time permitting.
I really like this. Good work
Keith, you did it again!
Great job. Looks really nice.
Nice job Keith, the table looks really good!
Nice job 👏 I'm gunna have a lot of mahogany off cuts and this is a grate way to put them to use tanks 👍.
Great job, Keith! Love how the table turned out!
Christmas is coming for those router bits Keith.
🤞
Verry nice 👌 great job!
Hi Keith,that is a neat little side table,and made out of your favourite material scrap wood,well made and earns my 5 ☆ rating
Lovely table Keith! Thank you for sharing it with us.👍😎JP
Really nice. 🐟🦴
great vid kieth
Would you consider doing a tutorial on using your circle cutting jig on the table saw?
Couple of bar stools and a pitcher of beer and bob's ur uncle! Great job! Thanks for the video.
Great use of odd bits of wood
Very nice.
Thats a stunning table for an accident
Badger Workshop love your channel Matt
Thank you Henry
Enjoyed and gave it a thumbs up also
A really nice project, well done. Did you chamfer the edges of the feet to prevent tear out when the table is dragged across the floor? It would have been nice to hide the screw heads with a plug even though they are out of sight IMHO...
Another thumbs up video!!
Very nice love the content keith
Love this design 👍
Love it! it is beautiful work, again ^^ Love your videos
Great job! I’ve been using that same epoxy for a while now, works like a charm ££££
That's brilliant. Nice job.
Can I ask where you got your makers stamp from?
eBay
Nice Job, i like it! But please consider to change the router bit :)
Nice job 💘look
Mate . I've followed your vids since the beginning and honestly mate you should be proud of how much and how far you have come in your woodworking and video making. Well done buddy good on you. The table looks great mate . How are you finding the Freud blades?
Agreed 👍
Thank you! The Freud blades are excellent but I’ve not tried many different ones to compare with. I think I’ll keep buying them though once I find something that works well I tend to stick with it
It is so accidentally beautiful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would probably have used a chamfer or round-over router bit to minimize the MDF substrate when viewed from the upper angles, also minimizing the apparent thickness of the top. Nicely done though, really good use of scrap materials to make a classy looking project.
Agree, that’d have been a good idea
Nice one dude. Looks good.👍
Thanks 👍

Nice accidental build Keith. Its amazing what doing something off the cuff can produce
Excellent!
Very good. I’d be interested to see Why there are some thumbs down. 👍🏾
Nice work. Just an idea, next time maybe a large round over on the mdf part and just brake the edge on the real wood part. Looks great
Good job 👏
Classy build. What is your table saw blade of choice?
Thanks! Details on my website and in description box re blades
Subscribed. Best wishes.
sei mitico! 😎😎
Dang! Well done my friend! Good job Keith!
I presume you have run across the channel “Pask Makes”...just FYI.
Yes I love Neil’s channel, it’s among the best - love his innovations
Figured, you had, addicted to both you guys!
Nice work mate.
U must come across some decent scrap wood. All seems to be hardwood.
Any tips I may not of thought about for getting good quality free wood
I’ve got a video about it, I think it’s called how to get wood for free or cheap
Great project out of scrap wood..
Using mahogany to make a step-stool because it's sturdy/tough is like using Uranium to make dumbbells because it's heavy. Both are nice looking and functional projects though.
Just goes to show "If there's a will then there's a way"
Wont the mdf get swollen with time and mess up the herringbone upper?
Swollen with what?
@@RagnBoneBrown water or moisture, kitchens made out of laquered mdf panels eventually get swollen from cooking steam, water etc.
The only thing that I didn't like about the table was the fact that the top and bottom of the legs aren't lined up. But other than that, it looks great!
Out of interest how do you come up with the price for the pieces you sell on Betsy?
Day rate x no. of days + cost of materials + shipping
👍
Brilliant mistake mate
The tabletop looks awesome but i think the foot doesn't fit the style of the top

didn't burn yourself on the hot angle grinder offcut this time =)
Learned the hard way
