This was perfect as a vanity desk for me. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxMAlHv7-BBWMrPRm5-uEoD6rtdT7SG2Qr Especially the glossy finish. Easy to cleanI was looking for something that wasn't the traditional white and with more of a modern feel. This fit the bill beautifully. I put it together with no problems, by myself in under an hour.Make sure you double check where you place the drawer tracks before screwing down. I had one track that needed to be aligned with different holes than the rest.
$15,000 or bust...I'll be building again this year and my daughter will love helping and using the table. Great project again this year Marc. Thank you!!!
I wish i could of made this project 10 years ago when my grand kids were younger. Really loved the video well done Marc.Maybe I'll make it sometime after I get rid of this lung cancer i got. Good luck to you and the family hope you raise a bunch of money to fight this disease.
I seen the long version of this, planning on starting this project today, but I am not using ply, I have reclaimed lumber from pallets so a bit more work but already have a worthy set of brothers to give this table too.
Great vid, Marc! Thank you for the idea for that wonderful table. As a cancer survivor, I fully support your enterprise. But I am clumsy as all get out, so I will have to appreciate it from a distance.
at 2:21 it looks like the framerate of the camera lines up perfectly with the stroke of the jigsaw blade and the blade appears stationary even though the saw is on.
+DesolationRobot That's actually a property of the saw itself. The built-in light has a feature where it increases visibility by giving it that still effect. It's pretty weird.
Great video Marc! As always! Thank you to Guys for all you do in the fight against Cancer! I hope Mateo is feeling better. I know he was under the weather last week! Have a great weekend!
This is just superb, been searching for "woodworking router table accessories" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Yiyli Yeyavid Booster - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some super things about it and my partner got excellent success with it.
Looking to start this project,i know i am a few years late but,I wanted to know,if you pause at 1:46 what is the width of the chair legs,the part that your left hand is on?
You are awesome, thank you for all your videos. I had a step-grandfather that helped me make a jewelry box with a hidden storage drawer slide in the bottom back when I was 15. Since then I have always dreamed of having my own woodworking shop just to build things for my family and friends.. Your videos have really helped me understand more about .. well.. everything. I am on a limited budget right now, and am only working with tools I have acquired for general remodeling along the way.. but I hope to slowly acquire tools. Currently I have all the basics from your #42 except a router.. Ive always wanted one, but like you said in that video "most people" think they are only for fancy edges.. I had no idea how much use I could get out of one. So that might be my first purchase. But you might advise me differently. Say I have $1000 budget to purchase tools (I know Ill be spending far more than this.. but just to start) , and I currently have: -Basic Craftsman circular saw -drill/ impact driver set x2 -Dewalt dw745 table saw :/ -Craftsman 10" miter saw, non sliding -craftsman jig saw So, pretty much.. all new tools is what I need.. May I ask.. What would you do with $1000 initial budget? Or a little more if I can get more bang for my buck by spending more. Thanks again! Also: just because.. I can tell you aren't a painter, but I love your choice for painting this table.. as far a the lacquer and tint. But.. be careful of overspray and painting out doors. I would get an enclosure at the very least to protect your work from any random things that the wind can carry. You dont have to do alot, even one of those pop up canopies (ones commonly seen at outdoor events/ tailgating etc. 4 legs, about 8' tall, with only the top covered by default), with a tarp wrap would help. Then, to help with over spray. I would predrill a small hole in a joined side that will be covered up after assembly, and temporarily put an eye hook in, or use existing holes that will be used for screws/ bolts later, improvise something.. then use a wire or cut up a coat hanger to go through the eye hook.. handle the pieces that way, and hang to dry that way. :) I know you already know all this, and probably I havent gotten to that video yet.. ha.
what plywood is that you are using? it has a lot of plies for a standard plywood. when I saw the first images, it seemed like Baltic birch but the plan uses a 4x8 sheet. Where do you find decent ply like that? I'm here locally in Arizona too and usually use timber hardwoods.
Great idea Marc! I'm starting to put together my table project for my niece's birthday. Could it be possible to top-coat the table's surface with dry erase paint such as Rust-oleum?
my child have that table but the cover which is coated with green colour sheet is tore how to get that and whare to buy that sheet or we have have to paint?
Great video! Thanks, Marc. It's great seeing your son in there with you. I'll be looking for your new shop "helper" in future videos. OK ... you answered the question about the wood filler--what about the spray adhesive? I'd like to see a short video where you show the various adhesives you use and when you typically use them. I see Izzy Swan uses a product called 2P-10 for quick assembly. Do you use anything similar? Thanks! The Woodworking Chaplain4Cops
awesome build! will put this on the to make list. just have a silly question, how did you put corner index marks on your printouts? I want to try the same technique to print out large images or templates using just a normal printer.
Marc, love the set and a great build. However, the pull pin to release the top may be too small when it comes to kids. For safety, if the item can fit through the cardboard toilet roll, a child could choke on the item.
hi Marc, nice project! I will try to make one set of these but bigger, do you think this design of chair in a bigger scale is a good design for adults??? I have to make a set of chairs for my living room and as I never made chairs before this design looks like something I could make, I just don't know how the bigger chairs will handle the use of adults...
+Tiago Jorge It will work for adults but you might need to add some additional reinforcement: more dowels, maybe more bolts. Now that doesn't mean it's going to be comfortable. So scale it up and build a mock-up. I think the key with this furniture is that it's easy to batch out and can be flat-packed. Comfort is definitely NOT one of its strong points. :)
Looks great, our family has a small hall table that my daughter put hand prints on when she was small with different color paints. It is a simple pine table which will not last forever so some day I will cut out the painted hands and put them on something else for her kids, many years from now.
You crack me up Marc. Yeah, I'll keep my boogers in there. Great design. I like how you have the plans available to help make this project easy for your viewers. And its for a great cause too! Well done. Douglas
Can someone help explaining to me what english speaking woodworkers refer to as just "paint"? I'v seen tons (metric) of videos were they aply "paint" and that's all they say... I really want to know what kind of paint to use on my furniture

Beautifully done Marc - I love the idea of preserving the doodles!
I built it for daughter she 5 years old. She love it and very happy. Thanks Marc.
$15,000 or bust...I'll be building again this year and my daughter will love helping and using the table. Great project again this year Marc. Thank you!!!
Brilliant video.
The wife is looking at table and chairs for our kids and your set would be perfect
Thank you

Beautiful project. Some very lucky kids indeed. That plywood looks expensive and cuts to perfection. Looking forward to the next project.
I really enjoyed this build Marc. That is a cute little helper you have also.
great video and project. cant wait to start it for my little girls

+Jeremiah Schwenger Thanks Jeremiah. The boy had Salmonella apparently. Lovely! Fully recovered now so all's well. :)
Good to hear! Never a full moment when your a parent!
Thanks for all your charity work. It's really awesome!

Love this. I think I'll do the tabletop in chalkboard paint. Kids'll dig that!
Love how you preserved the art work. Thanks for sharing. Hoping to make one too.

-Dewalt dw745 table saw :/

So, pretty much.. all new tools is what I need.. May I ask.. What would you do with $1000 initial budget? Or a little more if I can get more bang for my buck by spending more.

How long was the trim bit you used?
Cool build, cool program...guess I'm buying some plywood!!
A great work of a great dad...
Great video mark can't wait to get started
hey mark I just found a carbide tip radius plane at good will in the package for five bucks not sure how its used have any ideas
what plywood is that you are using? it has a lot of plies for a standard plywood. when I saw the first images, it seemed like Baltic birch but the plan uses a 4x8 sheet. Where do you find decent ply like that? I'm here locally in Arizona too and usually use timber hardwoods.
very nice marc! your the man for doing this.its for a great cause! and out of one sheet?? even better!
Great project Marc!!
I can't get .75 plywood in my area.
Can I use solid pine to build it?
+Andrea Arzensek Sure, you can use pretty much anything you have access to.
Excellent, thanks!
To good please send dimensions and how much hight length
I'm going to build this! Hopefully I can find good plywood at the big box store
Great idea Marc! I'm starting to put together my table project for my niece's birthday. Could it be possible to top-coat the table's surface with dry erase paint such as Rust-oleum?
Great table, Marc! I can't wait to get mine built and get the link submitted.
+Braxton Wirthlin Thanks for building along man! Much appreciated!
my child have that table but the cover which is coated with green colour sheet is tore
how to get that and whare to buy that sheet
or we have have to paint?
Great video! Thanks, Marc. It's great seeing your son in there with you. I'll be looking for your new shop "helper" in future videos.

+Randy Tucker I use whatever I can get from Home Depot. Usually 3m 77 or 90 or the similar stuff in Loctite brand.

Marc what supplier did you buy the 4X8 birch plywood from?
+SYL THECRU Spellman Hardwoods in Phoenix.
Nice idea to spray over the art work.
Just wonderful!! thanks a lot for sharing.
woah how work pays off! Great video. I actually just made a 3 minute review video of the Melissa & Doug Table and chair set myself :)
This is a pretty cool build.
Not sure a table saw falls under simple tools :)
+Kostas Pagratis it does in my book! :)
+The Wood Whisperer I like your book hybrid woodworking
actually a lot of folks would buy that table set for kids. i know i would, it's called creativity.
this is adorable!!! I'd love to try this!
Большое спасибо за проект!!!
Best video ever.
You crack me up Marc. Yeah, I'll keep my boogers in there. Great design. I like how you have the plans available to help make this project easy for your viewers. And its for a great cause too! Well done. Douglas
its a mini big idea!!! great project!!!
Hey Marc! Where do you get the U.T.C from? I'm having a hard time finding it. Thanks in advance!
ill give it a go on the cnc i think
Прекрасный проект! Спасибо!
Very cool! -- What wood filler are you using? Looks easy to work with. Oh yeah .... Boogers, LOL!
+Peter DeFazio That's Timbermate. Best filler I've come across.
+The Wood Whisperer - Thank you! Going to order some.
Great idea

+Joe basementwoodworking November 30th
+Andrea Arzensek awsome thanks bro.!:)

As always, simplistic and yet very informative vid and builds. Keep them coming, thanks>
Can someone help explaining to me what english speaking woodworkers refer to as just "paint"? I'v seen tons (metric) of videos were they aply "paint" and that's all they say... I really want to know what kind of paint to use on my furniture
You made it really easy!
love the wow shirt
nice job
That's some weird looking Bultic birch but great little project
I like the little guys shirt
"Boogers!" LOL
Especially funny because a younger me may have thus indulged, once or twice!
sorry, just ready further and saw someone else asked the same thing.
Kids? Hell, I'd put boogers in there!
That is really awesome. I think I'll have to make one, albeit a bit late!
+UsernameFECKLE Well, November 30...maybe I can make it by then! :)
Brad nails? Okay, Norm. :D
I always need a place to store my boogers!!
Boogers... Lol!!!
