This is nice when you're having extra company over and you need another table for a dinner. And then you could hang that on a wall in your garage or your shed until you need it again.
Paint a nice design on it and simply hang it on the wall as an art piece. Remove it from the wall and use it as a table top when guests come over. Yes, I know, it’s a genius idea. 🤣
I was taught in shop class (eons ago) to use 0000 steel wool to apply stain instead of a brush or a rag. That way all the stain goes into the wood, including the oil, instead of the rag soaking up the stain and oil. It also smooths the wool a bit more. Then use fresh 0000 steel wool to smooth the raised grain between coats.
Watch for oil on new steel wool as others have advised that the oil they use on steel wool causes black dots on Wood. Feel free to correct me if that was only with one wood or one brand of steel wool.
Nice simplistic table top. If you have a router with an ogee or 1/4 roundover bit, it would add a decorative touch and avoid splinters from the edges. Thanks for the dual project video.
You made that table top look way to easy with the nail gun. I keep telling myself I need to invest in one but always change my mind when I see the cost. 🤣 Maybe one day.
Couple more things to add. Glue, it's "stronger" but only when applied properly. Thin coats on both pieces being glued, not a heavy coat on one side. This pushes the glue into the grain on both sides, and letting the glue surfaces meld with each other ensuring the strongest bond. Glue is sorta stronger as well. It is however, weaker to expansion stresses and shock forces. Over time glue will become brittle as well. Always best to use both screws/nails and glue. For the trim, you should attach a bit of fir strip along the end cut sides as nails and screws don't hold well into the end grain. Attach a fir strip along the edge, and attach the finish trim to that instead/as well for added robustness of the finish trim. I would also recommend getting countertop epoxy to help give the top some dent/gouge resistance. Even with poly, pine is soft, and will definitely start showing damage fast. Final thing. Save yourself that folding table and take a look online, like Etsy, and find some nice legs to put the table on. Willing to bet you can find some cheaper than the table your putting the table top on. Overall though, I do like a simple build though, especially one that I can reuse wood I already have for. And this did come out looking nice.
Great idea for when the folding table gets some wear and tear to the top, and you can store the wooden top. I think I’m going to do this exact thing for an outdoor space I’m planning. Great idea
It would be cheaper to just get a new folding table. Then spend all that money on wood, stain, air compressor. Air hose, nail gun, nails, wood glue, and wood filler.
🎉wow! I wish i had found this sooner. Could have saved lots of time from making a farm house table. Its all good. I love my table and i love yours too.
Folding card table cover is beautiful✨ Your narration is improving- the number of times you said "..go ahead and .." or ".. just go ahead and .." is going down🙌🏻 😉
@@GoodlyEarth Well I admire you for making these videos and I know that it’s a lot harder than it looks🙌🏻 Here’s a good way to train yourself to avoid filler words or phrases. Buy an electronic VIBRATION correcting dog collar with a remote for causing vibration. Best for beginners. Buying the electric shock correction collar will accelerate your training. Get results FAST! Grab an assistant such as wife, kid, or neighbor and give them the remote, with instructions for using it. If your assistant is an adult, have a couple beers or drinks. Oh yeah, have someone else take videos of your training. 👍🏻 Turn on the device and fasten the collar around your neck, centering the vibration divise in the front of your neck. Begin your demonstration and speak smoothly and confidently. When you say 'uh' or 'er',stumble over your words, or say 'go ahead and…' your assistant will use the remote to cause the collar to vibrate. Repeat the process, increasing the strength of vibration as needed. Good luck and go ahead and have fun!!🤩😂😂😂😂🤣
That is one of the coolest ideas I have ever seen for an outdoor folding table. We have two like this that we use on our patio for gatherings. I'm going to get started on this next week. Excellent video and now a new subscriber.
I honestly thought you were gonna detach the top plastic white part and re attach the wood top you made. Still awesome work. I'm happy someone else had the same invasive thought and actually did it lol
Lol... This reminds me of when my office turned an old metal framed table into a nice conference room table. Basically did what he shows in the video, only with higher end wood, etc. Plus, we did a frame around the legs also... which helped provide support and made it look really professional. Lastly we paid a company to float a single piece of smoked glass on the top (after finishing the wood and stuff of course).
Well that Hubby is a real keeper.
I ALWAYS CLICK WHEN I SEE YOU POP UP AND IM NEVER DISAPPOINTED. 💕
LOOKS fun enough for me!
What a great idea for the folding table.
To make it non folding ?
Both are excellent, interchangeable table tops is fantastic , think of how useful it would be have a variety of colours, brilliant idea. Thank you
Wow that table looks beautiful!
Wow!!! I love this so much. Your wife is a lucky woman indeed.
I have a feeling the wife has tons of diy stuff around the house. Maybe even a little spoiled lol

This video is deeply soothing. I endeavor to have this energy with my kids.
Great Video! Fast Easy and to the Point

I liked it much better before the stencil.

The narration was so relaxing, he's like the Bob Ross of DIY's

You can do it!

Great channel, great idea.
