Great ❤
Hi, Morley!
1) I went to Morley Elementary School.
2) If you need a helping hand to volunteer, then let me know. I might be able to help. I live in Surrey.
I don't know what's more entertaining, watching your process, or your interactions with your family.
That's awesome to hear!
you're probably going to hear this from a lot of people, but one of the beautiful things about floating tenons is that you don't have to glue both sides at the same time - you can glue the tenon in on one side, and come back later
lol fantastic point.
@@MorleyKert thanks!
i love the wholesome bond between you and your wife bruh. hope yall flourish
ngl i feel so alone lmao
You are the definition of love. The fact that not only does she put up with your antics, but also helps you is such a refreshing sight. Not to mention that you made the “eyesore” of those bulky beams into a beautiful side table for her favorite beverage is so considerate. Keep up the good work, I love the vibe you put out into the world!
Ahhh so stoked to see how the table came together! Lovely work. And thanks for featuring my butt so prominently 😂
Haha thanks for the help, man!
You have a gyatt ngl

@@Cheezzychip24true on goood bro
It's nice to see someone show their mistakes and "break the third wall" when you talk about you reading the comments.
To see something genuine like this is what makes me sub and watch all new videos.
I have the same experience when trying a new project. You make mistakes, you move along and learn something on the way.
Keep up the good work 👍
Man I just want to say...
1. Your VO is excellent, and your voice has a relaxing quality to it!
2. I love your work man, like the full editing process, video composition, and your DIY approach to all your projects!
Glad everything went well!
Thank you so much!
@@MorleyKert anytime. Even though I've never touched a piece of wood to do woodworking, I live vicariously through all the woodworking TH-camrs that exist.
Eden spelt out LOL rather than just laughing? And Morley called something “clutch”? FML I’m old.😂
Actually… these are dead giveaways that Morley and Eden are old!
@@IAteFireis saying LOL out loud a millenial thing really?
@@bok.. It really is, I ain't heard someone say that in ages, aside from very niche interactions
Its a nice table. It fits really well into a modernistic style while still holding its rustic charm. I can see that in place in both new and old home/apartments and hotels. I love pieces like that that make the place look more welcoming and "lived in" rather than just for presenting.
Congratulations on the new studio! Can't wait to see what you are able to accomplish in it. The table is beautiful.
Whaaat, that studio looks amazing. Can't wait to see what you're going to make next!
I think these two gotta be my favorite TH-cam couple tbh like it ain't even the main focus of the channel but like just watching videos back to back its honestly so sweet to see them interact with each other and just thw wholesomeness in how much she supports him and even somtimes seems to enjoy helping him just for the sake of it.
I can just imagine how much more content and amazing creations you can do in your new studio! Kudos Morley! Congrats Eden!
The clear barn doors on the 3d printer enclosure, freaking GENIUS!!!!!
Ever since Morley lived in a van there has been a 300% increase of him climbing onto and standing on tables. I'm not sure what the correlation is ... but I'm sure there is one lol.
Happy to see you back in a studio making beautiful pieces!
Dude, y'all are the greatest. Couple, parents, dogs, cats, content. The greatest!
Nice work Morley! I like how you continue to learn and be better each time. It is inspiring! Super cool to see you have your own studio!
That’s awesome! Love the studio. Love the table. Love your amazing family. Looking forward to all of the new projects
I like to watch your old videos because you had the same beginner tools as me, (thickness planer, table saw ...) and at the same time you had videos at a great level, you knew how to entertain, etc. there are enough channels that work in workshops worth millions, but I understand that everyone evolves somewhere, but I'd like to see some more videos with similar equipment to your old workshop 😃
Your studio is awesome. Your creative mind is so amazing. You and your wife are a breath of fresh air. Congratulations. I'm glad she loves your surprise.
Idk why I'm watching bodyshop videos at 11 o'clock at night, I can't say I've really shown prior interest in it, but honestly I'm here for it.
Same
My first thought was, "oh, this comment would be relatable but it can't be that late for me"
No, no... I forgot it's 2am.
its so amazing to see you get better at your craft through the years. fire table.
Here's another (hopefully) helpful woodworking tip related to glue-ups: Titebond III has a 2x longer open time than regular glue. Very stoked for you to have a dedicated shop space now, such a game changer!
I love your concept of a small kitchen in Canada. We live in the UK in a five bedroom terraced house that is spread over 3 floors. The kitchen is in an extension and while it is much bigger that the original kitchen from the 1930's, there is no shot we could put a table and four chairs in our kitchen.
Crazy how it fit perfect and didn’t cover the plug for the coffee machine. Good work dude!
Ive got to say, I dont remeber the last time I subscribed to a youtube channel, but as an engineer and general doohickey maker this channel has been the easiest sub ever
Okay, pure honesty here, as a coffee bar, it is completely impractical. No storage. You created more of an art piece. I think you could have shaved some of the heft out of it so it no longer looks like a beam. My feelings.
Ok well, I would like to see you try to make a coffee table
@@Lu1s-k5tread their name before commenting next time 😂
Lol😂@@cutterberk
Morely cannot catch a break i swear every engineer or carpenter in his comments just insults his builds 😭
@Thomas-sg4iz it really is just criticism, though.
About the orientation of the huge floating tenon... Yes, it does matter. If it's a few inches then okay, the movement of the wood with changes in humidity won't be great enough to split a joint. But you could easily have 1/8" of movement in that joint.
You could have used a smaller tenon centered in that spot, and also just turned the tenon 90 degrees so that it lines up with both sections that you're joining. A foot long tenon is a bit silly, but a foot long tenon in the wrong orientation is a ruined joint waiting to explode.
These sloppy tenons not going to explode, but the glu is so gonna fail over time. So be careful when u move this furniture in the future
@@tecnopufi - yeah, that's what I was thinking. The fit on the tenons doesn't seem so tight that I'd be too worried about exploding joints, but the wood could easily gonna move in such a way that the glue is gonna fail and you'll have a 200lb lincoln log set to reassemble.
Anyone else hear "PIVOTTT!!! PIVOTTTTTT!!!!" when they were carrying the boards down the stairs?
@10:32. I disagree. The issue with a very wide tenon going cross grain like your setup is that the wider the peice is the more the wood expands. A 4 inch wide peice might expand to 1/32" of an inch whereas a 12 inch peice might expand up to 1/8". This can cause cracking. Your douglas fir is very old and probably very dry and stable so it might not expand too much. Hopefully your new furniture peice won't crack, but it's risky.
Great finish, good looking table. I like it Morly, keep up the good work!
Amazing table and kept simple fits the coffee vibe perfectly. Congrats on the new shop/studio. I can't wait to see what projects come out of it. Your skills as a craftsman are definitely improving and can tell you take a lot of pride in your work
To help speed up the finish spray process what I do is use a pop up tent that has 4 sides enclosed on it, takes 1-2 minutes only to set up and it collapses down. I got mine on Amazon for around $80. Just have to throw something on the floor and you’re good to go. Only down side is it’s not massive I have a 10x10 tent and it fits just about everything I finish.
Oh maaan Eden is just... The best... In the whole universe... Take good care of her you Morley, she is perfect.
Thanks this was so sweet and wholesome af. sometimes i forget how people treat each other
glad to see another fellow youtuber who reads most if not all of their comments! especially for a youtuber as big as you!!! i love when bigger content creators actually engage with their comments instead of just no longer reading them after 100k subs
16:10 completely oblivious to the table ...where did that come from ? LOL 🤣🤣
18:32 how many times is she oblivious to it this time? 😂
Didn't think I'd like the result when I saw how thick it was going to be, but when finished it ended up looking amazing
Such a wholesome video absolutly loved the coffee table how it turned out and the joy in your Family Morley.
Great video and love the whole story and build up. I really liked the look on her face when you mom said that she really was thirsty for a coffee now! Thanks for sharing!
Congrats on the new studio! The wood stove will be sweet during the winter in Van
Super cool project, man! Keep at it-you are really going somewhere!
I feel your pain on the dropping the table on your finger. I was clamping something with those heavy bar clamps barefooted in the garage and dropped one on my toe.. Barefooted in the garage, obviously a bad idea.
I love this came from Jenna!! I love both of these channels so much!!
I love Jenna and HEY NICKI! They’re the best!
came out really cool!
Thanks man!
Complete honesty here.. a bit overkill for a coffee bar. But I have to say, it's beautiful. And you did an excellent job, my friend. Keep up the good work.
First time I arrived right when the video was uploaded! What a nice woodwork, a simple and effective design with a lot of personality! Morley, in a few weeks I went crazy with your videos, the way you explain what you are doing like a tale, the video edition and your vibe!! I look forward to seeing more videos in that epic new studio! Greetings from Argentina!
This table definitely gives some vintage vibes - and that's great 👌 Your new workshop looks amazing, but what really caught my attention was this great workbench. I think you should make another video on how you built it 😉
Oooohhhhhhhhhhhhh. . . those dry-fits make me SOOO happy
The thing that has more value is your relationship with Eden. That's important and great. Keep it up ❤
What an awesome piece. The studio looks great too. Exciting times now your back making full time.
15:25 You should make the table move up and down so you can move the table so its almost flush with the floor and you can get builds off there easier. Just an idea!
Long-time follower, delighted to hear you read the comments. I can’t offer any advice or tips but just wanted to say hello from Ireland and I love your content, wish I was half as talented at this stuff!
Table looks amazing bro!! It's so nice to have pieces of furniture that you know you will always keep.
All I can hear is Jenna going "Go Morley, go Morley, go Morley!" like she does for Nick as you built this entire table.
I'm really happy for your new lab man! Nice work as always!
Thank you! I'm stoked :)
They do make really long router bits, I have some for my door lock router from the 50s. Made for those square lock inserts. I bought some old growth from a 100 year old flour mill they tore down in Nanaimo. Made stairs out of mine and haven’t checked or moved in over 10 years. My wife will not notice something new for days.
your now the next grandmaster of the craft!!!!
"Now for the thumbnail you have to act really suprised and cry" LOL
The point that you read all comments shows how dedicated you are to that what you do on youtube
Hey man, great videos, love them. However, can you please, use a push stick? One mistake and you lose multiple fingers. I know you could probably 3D print a replacement, but I don't think it will be as good as the original. Cheers!
Great build, fantastic video!
Love how to table turned out! Also, congrats on the studio!!
Thank you!
Wire wheel finish really drive home the rustic look ,I found when finishing some rush and get the bubbles due to heavy coats especially with lacquer the liquid settles in the valleys and bubble bubble but you nailed it she's happy and new skill unlocked 👏
ur videos are so entertaining! turning one man's trash into another man's treasure
Amazing vid!!! Great inspiration for 3d print and woodworking projects!
I catch every other video of yours and am always entertained and impressed by the end results. Keep it up!
Thanks for watching!
Awsome build and new shop !!!!
Congrats on your new Studio/Shop!!!
15:11 the best way to avoid stuff like this is to drop it onto some shims or some kind of wedge, then pull the wedge out from under it.
This reminds me on how my wife reacts to things; just in her own world until I point anything out LOL table looks amazing! Just discovered this channel, add a sub to the counter.
I love your videos because they show your screw ups which are some of the same mistakes I make as well 😂 keep on cuttin’
Old wood is great but I'd suggest a metal detector before working any old beams. Leftover old school nails are pretty spectacular in a planer/jointer/power saw.
You're an incredibly entertaining and talented creator. I hope you do read this and know you're appreciated!
You can get a lot of this old wood in Switzerland..from old houses and barns built like 400 years ago. Crazy hard and dense..sometimes impossible to drive a screw or nail.
So glad you finally have some own space to work at your projects!! You well deserved it!
Such a great video and the science behind the details just sounds so good!
The quarter sawn nature of the tenon(s) you showed makes it stronger than if it was all straight grain going in the same orientation. You'll be fine. **thumbs up**
I'm glad you got an actual shop and comments help yhe algorithm so even if you don't read them it promotes the video
I love you I found you a bit ago then forgot about it (got distracted by so many other content adhd brain) then came back and I still love your content
I personally love this videos, don't have the tools to do something like this but it is nice to watch them
Way to go. You worked hard in that table, enjoy it!
its so nice when a partner appreciates a handmade gift.
10:00 it shouldn't matter that much. as you can see from 10:35 your pieces are so big that there isn't one specific direction of grain through the tenon. the ring pattern bends. you basically have 1/4 of the entire grain pattern in that one block there, so its unlikely to break like if the piece was so small that you might have a section of grain that could sheer off running though the whole tenon if it was the size of the little biscuit tenons.
and in this case you also shouldn't have to worry because its not a building. its not going to have to hold a roof up. its a table. That piece of would could probably hold up a car without breaking.
since you read your comments I just wanna say Love the woodworking content keep it up!
17:20 HVLP stands for high Volume, not high Velocity
Great work. Seeing the end result, there’s an immense opportunity for sliding dovetails!
You just gained a subscriber love this video gonna watch another one
Shout out to you for throwing in Dusty Lumber Co. love his short vids
what 3d modeling software are you using @20:00 ?
Fusion 360
its always smart to put an 1/8" (or more) thick piece of scrap under the clamp points. especially on exposed surfaces on furniture. sometimes the clamp can leave a nasty mark that will take some good elbow grease to get out! love your vids btw
Totally impractical but looks nice! What wholesome interactions with your family!
About the grain direction, I feel like it's not much about the cross grain glue up, rather than the direction of forces the floating tenons are resisting. The floating tenons who are going inside the top are actually side grains opposed to the direction of force that they should be resisting (twisting the top sideways in this case). Theoretically that should be a weak point, but since you made them so thicc you'll probably be okay 😅
Great video! The orientation of your tenons matter very much. Your large tenon is oriented sideways which makes the strength of the grain weak. Although the joint is so huge that it probably won't break. Also, normally wood movement would destroy the bond with your large tenon, but those timbers are so old, they likely don't expand and contract much anymore.
The new studio is awesome, and that table looks amazing! I will say I was scared with you walking on your ROLLING shop table, trying to move around the heavy coffee table 😅
I... would never ever disappoint this woman for two main reasons
Congrats on the new studio!
