Riggs looks like he'd be a great troll-hunting dog! I like the way the base came out on this table, perfect stability is over-rated. Furniture falling on kids builds character. When I was 5 we had a four drawer chest stacked on another four drawer chest. The pulls were perfect little climbing holds, so I thought. I ended up on the ground with one chest on top of me. The 80's were great, man.
We kept finding we needed a folding table. This is so easy to store. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxStL0QRChBju4aQlnTrRgBZvafFog0KU3 Opening and closing is easy as well. It has a great handle for carrying around the house. Its pretty lightweight and slides around easy. We bought it for our daughter’s first sleepover. Breakfast was a blur - but 12 7-8 year olds fit at the table with room to spare. We used it at thanksgiving and 6 adults fit comfortably on each side plus 2 on either end for a total of 8. Super easy to clean up afterwards as well.
After watching the video advert i was still skeptical. But when i finally downloaded the plans th-cam.com/users/postUgkxZF0EMnrujZvqHhGkxiz559uIABJWR9TG i was very impressed. The whole plan was just as you said in the video. Thank you very much. I now have a large and valuable collection for my woodworks. This is great!
I'm actually in the middle of setting up my first "shop" (if I can even call it that) and I know very little but I love watching these videos for information and tips. A starter build video would be amazing
That would be great. Skill saw and a 1x4 with clamps for a track, pocket hole jig, minimal router bits. It takes a long time for the average guy to build a fully functional woodworking shop. Love the videos! Great content.
@@BlacktailStudio Id would really like this. I just bought my first home and got a shop starting in the garage. I don't have much, a miter saw and table saw!
Yes. I agree with that and like a small beginners projects to expand to intermediate to expert to master or what ever super power you are at now Love this show
Riggs, after reading the troll comment, I wanted to say that I simply don’t understand his gripe; as someone who (very amateurishly) dabbles in woodworking, part of my enjoyment of your videos is hearing you narrate your process of building as well as your talking through your thought process when making these pieces. Love the content, man
@@timothykarpov1432 Pine gets no love but I'd like to see something built from clear spruce. It's a beautiful wood, it's just tricky to work into anything other than a stud. It splinters and holds sap. It doesn't stain well, but why would you wanna stain a beautiful piece of clear anyway.
Riggs. I absolutely love the simple legs you made for this table. Just straight pieces with a small, lovely roundover on the edges. The simple shapes really allowed for one to focus on the stunning grain. Fantastic work, Cam.
Riggs, I myself would like to see projects that I call “Realistic “ meaning affordable and functional for the hobbyist woodworker who does projects for friends and family and not as a living source of income. I understand your livelihood is making and selling so I do not want or expect you to switch gears but maybe toss in projects every once in a while geared towards us. Thank you for what you do and create. I hope your shop helpers leg heals up real soon. Thanks, Mike
@@BlacktailStudio You are above the You Tube DIy'ers. Don't change your skill level and cheapen your level of woodworking. 44 years ago I got hooked. You have my respect and admiration!
this isnt the right channel for that,check out "boyscout level woodworking" and it will help you do that "old pallet/cottage bookshelf" you have always dreamed of
kind of not what he does,lots of mediocre woodworking channels out there however...i watch this for excellence,perfection,awesomeness...not for blehhhh,mehhhh or whatever
Dude. Love the videos. You have commented that you have gotten criticism for your narration pace. Screw that. It’s perfect. Love the work you do and happy you are able to do it full time!!!
Riggs, I'm not a woodworker type although I did take a woodshop class back in '59. I enjoy the time you take to explain what and why you're doing to keep others from these mistakes. You have a subscriber for life. Keep doing what you do, I truly enjoy this app! Thanks, Rob.
Murtaugh - maybe it was design elements of the base, but this is one of my favorite projects I’ve seen you do. Not the most beautiful or elaborate, but aesthetically pleasing. Nice job.
Riggs needs a Murtaugh! Gorgeous grain on that table. Question is how do you deal with smaller pieces that develop a twist, only after they have been custom cut and fit. I resorted gluing and screwing with the T10 finish screws and working it into submission. Working on a budget so dropping more money on extra walnut and hickory really isnt my best option.
Riggs…. Cute doggie. Hello. Fantastic work. You are an inspiration. By the way, I know your list says that Rotex is out of stock, but I'm just curious: is Rotex a model of Festool, or is it another brand? Because I couldn’t find information about it, not other than a Festool model, apparently no longer available. Keep your videos coming.
Would love that, I do a lot of outdoor projects, despite all my research, I am still uncertain of the best way to weatherproof them, keep in mind, that I live in South Africa and we don't have access to half the finishes that you have in the US.
Riggs, please, please wear safety glasses when doing any cutting, routing, etc. Take it from one who could not see due to an eye disease, when vision comes back (cornea transplant) it is so good. If you would like I will send you a bunch as long as you always use them in your workshop. Great table, as with all your work it looks so good. Cheers
Riggs. Thoughts about the table: round the corners of the top just a little. The sharp corners just doesn't look that good with a raw edge. Other thoughts: John's Furniture Repair has a "Shop Dog" that is always an enjoyable addition to her videos. The first few videos after she moved didn't have the dog. I think people asked because she made a point of saying Shop Dog moved with her and showing the dog. People love dogs. So yes, Riggs is most welcome. Final thought: do you put together your furniture in a way that can be easily repaired in the future? Fixing Furniture channel has a lot of insight on that. I think you make incredible furniture that could last 100 years, but then repairs could be a nightmare.
Riggs :) Honestly Cam, if you’re making it I will gladly watch. It’s all interesting and informative to me. Looking forward to seeing you organize and start working in the new shop as well. 🦆
Riggs. If you haven’t done it already then I would love to see a video where you give some insight into the tools you use the most and what would be the must haves for starting as a complete novice
I REALLY like the videos, I am a new subscriber and will be sharing them with my brother. The walnut grain, texture and finish that you apply to it brings out the real beauty of the wood, you are so lucky to live in that part of the country ( sorry for political reasons) be safe, continue your great work. It will last for years!!🇺🇸
As a guy who builds tables and custom furniture, I really enjoy your videos. Have you ever thought about doing a coffee table made of pallets and using epoxy? I'd be curious to see what you would come up with. I think it would be neat.
Do some things that NORMAL people can do, throw in a few insane projects every now and then, but everything i've seen you do are just great. Love your work
Riggs would say, “ when drilling in metal on your drill press try moving your clamp to the other side”. It should be better with the torque of the bit. It will push rather than pull. And or butt the piece against a stop or back rail and it should help from lifting or catching. Liked the table a lot and the base. 🤘👍🏻
Always use leverage to keep your work from spinning on the drill press. It’s the first thing a machinist apprenticeship learns. And don’t grab the chips with your fingers use a pair of pliers.✌️
@@BlacktailStudio I attempted one a couple years ago less the cable management. I didn't give myself enough time to complete it, and then tax season started (am an accountant) and here we are two years later and it's still unfinished!
Hey Cam - I picked up a cordless trim router about 6 months ago (Milwaukie M18 fuel) and I love it. It is not as powerful and the big plunge router, but it is very easy to use ... and the lack of a cord is (for me) a huge plus. Love your videos.
I don’t really do large projects just yet and my shop is small. So while i agree that a trim router is a handy tool for me, i actually like my rigid more than my m18. Some tools that get more continuous use really aren’t as good as their corded counterparts.
Riggs is an awesome addition to the table. I love the way you put it all together. The wood you chose is absolutely gorgeous. I am new to your channel so I haven’t looked into it just yet. Do you make outdoor furniture? Do you use joinery as much as fasteners? I love what I have seen so far.
I really love the grain patterns of the wood and how well the finish really brought it out! The one idea I had about stability would be to route out a channel on the bottom for a metal counterweight so that it’s not so top heavy.
RIGGS is adorable and makes a great addition to the photo shoot! Hope his leg is better soon. The table is gorgeous; I love the grain in the walnut and the deep rich color. And as far as suggestions for future projects...I will enjoy watching anything you make. Congratulations on the new house! Stay safe, stay well, and keep creating!
RIGGS!! Love this design! I am a HUGE fan of Wright’s work so I like how he inspires your designs. On your edge profile, I do that a lot and I find using a nice sharp chisel to complete an edge up to corners does a great job rather than a rasp
Please make more designer-esk copies and adaptations like this. I love the timeless aspect of great design coupled with quality modern workmanship. Great vid mate. Watching from new zealand.
Riggs is very cute, hope his leg healed up ok. I know it's been a while since you made this, but I just love watching you create beautiful things. I make small things like boxes and jewellery, but hoping one day to make something for our house. Thanks for doing what you do, and doing it so well. Keep safe and well.
Riggs should be in more videos, also the grain, the Jacket Edge, and the sap wood all make this table beautiful to my eye. I try to work sap wood into my projects, at first because I was too cheap to discard it but in the end I decided that it adds a load of character.
Have you ever considered trying a sofa piece? Or something along those lines? Or like a wood swing, or something odd like that? Thats prob a really dumb question, so I apologize in advance, I just feel like, guys like you can literally make anything. Love the channel ( though I’ve never picked up a saw ), you are incredibly talented, and love everything you build. Congrats on the new home! Godbless!
Your dogs name is Riggs! My dogs name is Freeda!! I love your work and how you narrate videos. They are very inspiring and what I like about you is that even though you make high-end work, you’re still humble enough to ask for peoples advice and your willingness to hear suggestions, don’t worry, I don’t have any. Just here to admire your work.
I’m a senior lady…no woodworking skills at all. But your videos are captivating, and you make even ME dream of doing projects…not like yours, but something simple! Excellent workmanship.
Riggs is a beautiful dog. Your table is so beautiful especially the walnut legs. Who wants blah legs with a lovely tabletop? You did exactly the right thing for your new home.
Maybe something cheaper? More today's economy priced? I sell tables no where near as yours but I do well for buisness here in TN. All from Facebook messenger. Very Kool though !!
RIGGS… are you offering merchandise such as the TShirts you wear, maybe some mug designs? You know, the standard obligatory stuff for us guys who just can’t afford your beautiful and extraordinary pieces? I’ll watch your SAME VIDEOS OVER AND OVER AND OVER. Just the woods colors are overwhelming to me. Thank God for that top notch camera (Nikon) you have…
For what it's worth. Next time you get your festool pinched. Drop your depth, release the front clip and remove your blade from the machine. Then a mallet and a piece of wood to hit the blade. From a Guy who also does wood work. Your end results are awesome 👌. Thanks for the work. SAYING HAVE A BLESSED DAY FURTHER FROM SOUTH AFRICA. Enjoy the man Glitter
Riggs... 3 years late! Haha I havent watched EVERY video yet, but i wonder, with your imagination, what could you build for $100 only shopping at Home Depot???? After all, as beautiful as your projects are, its your brainfulness that makes it even more interesting to watch...
Riggs....re-watching this three years later and having seen so many of your subsequent videos, I know that this is a moot point (or a "Moo" point as Joey would say) but the troll comment was completely off the mark. Your narration is an absolute selling point for your videos. Of course your woodworking mastery is so wonderful to watch but being able to hear your thought processes is a joy and your speaking style is totally engaging.
Riggs is adorable under your new table. I hope his leg heals fast. I enjoy your videos with their commentary. It really doesn't matter to me what particular project you film, as I am just here to enjoy the process. Thank you for sharing!
Here’s a true story about FLW. . He designed a house for Curt Johnson of Johnson Wax fame. Mr. Johnson and FLW were quite close. Anyhow, FLW not only designed the house, but the furniture also. Mr. Johnson’s wife died, and Mr. Johnson remarried. New wife did not like the furniture, and found new furniture she liked. Frank was staying with the Johnsons and noted the new furniture. After everyone went to bed FLW had found the original furniture he designed and put it all back. The next morning, Mrs. Johnson was less-than-impressed, MUCH, MUCH LESS IMPRESSED. FLW asked Mrs. Johnson if she now understood why the house was more complete with his furniture. The much, much, less-than-impressed Mrs. Johnson had FLW put her furniture back, once that was complete, he was removed from the Johnson home. He never was invited back again.
RIGGS~~ I'd like to see more crazy creative stuff....I love watching you brainstorming ways to create things. (PS: I'm from the South and you talk too fast....hehe)
Riggs. 1. To my eye the table "legs" look....well....a little "clunky." That's just me, but it's why I always put a taper or a curved taper to legs. But then, I'm very much an amatuer (in spelling too, it seems.) 2. About glue. I do a quite a bit of wood turning and formerly used Tight bond III. The problem was that in making bowls using glued up pieces to make the blank, eventually at the joints there would be some "creep" after a few weeks. So, these days I use Tight Bond Original which DOES NOT creep. Love your videos.
A tip for drilling metal is to start with your smallest drill bit and keep going up in size, drilling the hole bigger each time until you get to the size hole you want.
Riggs … Did you make the size of the legs a 2x4? I find myself always wondering measurements while watching your projects. Another amazing build! Thank you! Led Zepplin #1. 🤘
Tools. What every viewer should know is that if you are going to do this for a living you are going to end up with a minimum tool investment of $450,000 at today’s prices. But if you really have talent and your pieces are already drawing interest in the five figure and higher range….it is well worth it to mortgage the house and build your tools selection. Because of my hyper-aversion to debt I refuse to purchase anything on credit. NOTHING. So it took me over 30 years AFTER I started selling custom designed pieces to buy everything I thought I would ever need. At that, many of my hand tools are from the golden era of woodworking, 1520-1690 AD. These are the tools I love. Big electrics are nice to have but if a thing CAN be done by hand…it should be. But that’s just me…I would never criticize anyone who turns out beautiful pieces like yours…(unless you just flash everything out on the CNC…I have to draw the line at machines that do the work FOR you. As far as glue…I’ve always made my own. I make three different types, flexibilities and strengths of hide glue and have done this all my life. I started making it for a Spanish guitar maker years ago and never stopped.
RIGGS Very nice. For some reason I thought the legs were going to be installed with the beam portion up underneath the table. Whenever I can, I will build a quick scale model machete, normally out of paint sticks and bamboo skewers, to check stability. Dad says, PUT SOME WORK BOOTS ON. Thanks
Riggs 🐶 Always include Riggs where possible…man’s best friend…or in my case the only ones in my home who act like they like me😂 Great work again Cam👌✌️🏴
Rides All that matters is you and the wide are happy with the table. As far as the stuck trac saw, we all learn from our mistakes AWESOME VIDEO BROTHER STAY STRONG AND GOD BLESS
Riggs, I grew up in Oak Park, Illinois, which is where FLW’s home and studio are located, and many of his residential buildings, so I have a calibrated FLW eye. 😀. This looks more MCM to me. It’s not your best design andI really don’t like how unstable it is, but I appreciate your efforts at pushing yourself as a designer. You also have beautiful taste in wood.
Riggs, I like the accent style of the table. I would really like to see you try something along the lines of a multi-colored epoxy table made from multiple wood scraps to see how it comes out. Darker, lighter woods, different grains. (Mosaic style?) When I mean different colors … I mean DIFFERENT greens, blues, oranges etc... (neon?-- maybe not) The table could be another accent piece or maybe more of a unique practical piece.
Riggs: The table is stunning. The design is perfect. When you sell a $1,000 skill saw….you make it powerful AND accurate! I disagree, Cam, even if you have a powerful router, if you are a finish wood craftsman you NEED a trim router….but more importantly you need the best bits available…bits are NOT the place to save money. A rule of thumb is that each of your bits should cost as much as your router (regardless of the router).
Riiggs rocks !!!! Reminds me of my dog Bubba. He always seems to lay / sit on or in front of anything new that I bring into the house. Great project. Beautiful wood grain. Anyone would be proud to own a table of this beauty and quality. I think I would have gone with four legs though. Stability over looks, That.s just me. P.S. The painter's tape on the bottom of the legs??? Great way to solve the stability problem Personally, it would drive me crazy, just knowing it was there even though you can'i see it. lol. Thanks for the great videos.
I have a question, I just started watching your videos and I'm new to wood working (self-learn TH-cam graduate LOL) in farmhouse builds. A friend passed away and his wife just gave me 10 slabs of walnut with bark (aprox 4" thick and 6' long). I want to build a bench in tribute of him to give back to her. What can I do to make the walnut withstand heat and cold of the outdoors? although not directly in the weather (to place on the porch). Should I try to leave the bark on the edges or remove? Will epoxy withstand the elements? Do you have a video already or could you post a video showing a build like this?
Trim Routers are fairly cheap, though. You can get a less than spectacular one from Harbor Freight, but I got a used Dewalt a couple years ago for less than 100 bucks. I think if you go for a refurbed one you can get a decent name brand -- Dewalt, Makita, or Ryobi -- for a reasonable price. And one thing you can do with it is buy an attachment from Banggood that will make it into a domino maker. Or you can probably check out JSKoubou and he's probably got a hand-made version (e.g., trade time for money)
Hello! I enjoy watching your videos. Your work is so beautiful. Suggestion: Make a child’s bed-head board and/or footboard with epoxy that can be lighted. So, the bed becomes a night light. Thanks! Lynn
Riggs named after Lethal Weapon? I have a really cool idea for a project that you could make with some of your smallest scrap pieces and could get you a bunch of exposure with the gaming community.An epoxy resin "river" Dungeon Master's Screen. I actually have plans drawn up for one using SketchUp. I would love to share my idea with you! I am even PDX local ;)
Riggs, where do you get this wood? Beautiful piece, and amazing piece of furniture. Do you have a good source of wood near southern Ontario? I’m not into woodworking at all, but I really wanted to try some sort of DIY piece of furniture for my house. I love your videos, and I’m impressed how your work got much better throughout the years. I’m not saying anything about your woodworking skills, but your video quality and professionalism.
Hi Riggs (and Cam), I just came across this vid from the past. A very nice 'simplistic' item. One thing I might suggest, for stability, and may not even detract from the overall look, and that would be a BLACK steel plate at the narrow end of the base. It would provide balance, and perhaps some weight, depending upon the thickness/length. Just a thought.
I want to see you make a Cathedral Alms Table (circa 1320-1570). It should not have any hardware and only hide glue (piscine is fine). You should hand make your own glue and lacquer. I make these occasionally and when done right you can sell for a low six figure pay day. It takes about 600 hours.
Riggs. You are so talented! Plus funny! The wood grain is striking on this sofa table. I like seeing your variety of projects. Except that burnt stump with expoxy and light, didn’t like that. Everything else I love!!
Riggs. hey...late to the party, but. just came across this vid. Love the table, and base - the heft of it is really nice. Nice trick to help with the stability. I love the walnut, but I think it kinda gets lost against the brown of the sofa (my opinion only). Why can't you use tite-bond III with walnut?
I have NO wood working experience. That being said, something I always thought would be cool would be to take a tree stump and make it into a chair/ throne. Just cut off the bark/ excess,stain it and put a nice cushion on it....make it look like it was growing out of the ground (maybe add to that by leaving/ adding root pieces to the stump). You see I lean more towards the design/ art side than the engineering/ manufacturing side. I've had this idea since I was 15 and would go Dumpster Diving with friends where I would often see people leaving out tree stumps that they had removed. I always lamented that they'd get thrown into the dump and/ or be ruined by the rain. A few years back I found a stall at a "local" Ren Faire of a company that basically does just that- the bed they made was just mindblowing. Some day i'll have the tools for my throne. Until then, i'll live vicariously through your vids.
Riggs… I think it’s a lovely table. Nice to step out and do different things once in a while. One comment: When I was an apprentice, our shop foreman would have kicked my butt if he’d caught me drilling metal on a drill press we used for wood 😅. Ever since then I’ve always tried to have a metal only press, or a special metal only cover. Just a thought… 😊.
Riggs, I’d love to see you do a few projects without any mechanical fastening: no metal, no screws, no dominoes, just quality joinery. I love your designs and you are a most excellent craftsman. Joinery takes time and perhaps is not commercially viable (customers will only pay so much), but for your own furniture???
Riggs... (GOOD BOY!) Hey, appreciate your invitation to make recommendations for things to see from you in the future... How about projects for those of us who need to make the most of "everyday" tools?
Beautiful! Love the color, grain, novel design, etc. The gouge on the table top I personally would hide by facing it against the sofa. But that's me. Love you work!
Riggs. Writing from London uk. I really like the small side table you made after reluctantly splitting that piece you had for years. I wonder if you sometimes put felt or rubber on the bottom so the tables don’t scratch on the floor(?). I really enjoyed woodworking at school. Your products are superb - functional works of art through high end craft and skill. I’m guessing you don’t ship to the UK. I wonder if you could make a ‘Swiss army knife’ table that has multi functions…
Riggs, the modern designs are pretty cool, but have you ever considered something in a more classical style? It would be cool to see a desk or a chest design from the 18th century that benefits from modern technology/techniques... like a best-of-both-worlds piece. Let me know what you think Cam. Thanks for all your great work.
Riggs adds to the look of the table and sofa. The table behind the sofa looks great - the grain and live edges are excellent. The legs work really well in colour and the cantilever end is very stylish. I am retired and do very little woodwork but your channel is addictive. just the right balance between images/commentary and humour.
I love the channel. Would you consider doing a "cover song" so to speak? I mean using your materials (epoxy and wood varieties) but trying to emulate a design of another well known designer/craftsman? For example, this one was FLW inspired. Or would you ever try embellishments (not sure of the right term)... like scroll work or etching or inlay or even carving (leaves acorns heraldry rustic iconography?)
Riggs. How could anyone NOT make it to the end of your videos? The process and results are always interesting! I’m a film buff, so how about making my dream project of french cleat bluray storage of walnut and resin? Dowel (or square peg) secured shelving in a light wood for exterior contrast, as well as for the cleats. Could a dowel or peg be secured through resin and would resin be strong enough to hold 200 lbs on a wall?
Cam I am at a disabled veteran old veteran I am looking to get to get back into my woodworking which I had to give up for a loss of vision.I Still managed to sneak in some power tools, but mostly my cordless Circular sawEven though it's only a 3 and a 1/2 inch. I live in Kelso Washington, And I'm tired of sitting around in my chair watching TV And I need to get my butt up and get active into something I'm loving. My biggest obstacle is that I do not drive anymore. I am thinking about doing some epoxy work And I would love to find a place that I could get quality stock from near me When I do not have access to a truck. So keeping costs down is essential, But I don't want to give up when working altogether. Any information or assistance you can throw my way Would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jim Jardin
Riggs!!!! Hey congrats on the subscription gain over the course of Covid man! I have been watching your videos sense 16k subscribers and you have inspired me to take on a love of my own, I’d love to see you do a wood table/epoxy pour but make the style of the epoxy inspired by acrylic pouring art that people do on canvases. That’ll be amazingly cool!!
RIGGS. Unfortunately I don't like this one sorry but that is just me. Maybe 150mm down and something to strengthen (stabilize)that leg. The finish looks awesome as always.
Riggs, I’ve watched a few of your videos, and I like the way you explain every project, and the result, that’s it for now. I’m in the process to moving back to my country (Social Security doesn’t allow me to live in California no more), and I’m planning to build a shop at my new house in Argentina to work on wood projects, like I used to do here, that’s why I love to watch yours and another wood workers’ videos. Thanks for the good tips, and keep going!
Riggs - get well! FLW-style table looks great with that leather couch. Nice work. Never heard about TB3 glue being incompatible with walnut - I'll watch that. Thanks!
Hi, I'm planning on making a kitchen-bar table and it would be my first! I'm in highschool so I don't have too much experience but I have made a desk for my room. Do you have any tips for a first time kitchen table maker? Also I'm basing my design off of the ikea "nordviken" design. Thanks!
Riggs looks like he'd be a great troll-hunting dog! I like the way the base came out on this table, perfect stability is over-rated. Furniture falling on kids builds character. When I was 5 we had a four drawer chest stacked on another four drawer chest. The pulls were perfect little climbing holds, so I thought. I ended up on the ground with one chest on top of me. The 80's were great, man.
That made me chuckle 😂
The fifties and early sixties were better, nobody gave a toss. Regards Jim
Damned millennials and their 'safe furniture' pbbbbt.
I, too, lived this adventure in 1985. Great year, man! Great decade.
In the 1700s we just went to war with France you kids :)
We kept finding we needed a folding table. This is so easy to store. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxStL0QRChBju4aQlnTrRgBZvafFog0KU3 Opening and closing is easy as well. It has a great handle for carrying around the house. Its pretty lightweight and slides around easy. We bought it for our daughter’s first sleepover. Breakfast was a blur - but 12 7-8 year olds fit at the table with room to spare. We used it at thanksgiving and 6 adults fit comfortably on each side plus 2 on either end for a total of 8. Super easy to clean up afterwards as well.
After watching the video advert i was still skeptical. But when i finally downloaded the plans th-cam.com/users/postUgkxZF0EMnrujZvqHhGkxiz559uIABJWR9TG i was very impressed. The whole plan was just as you said in the video. Thank you very much. I now have a large and valuable collection for my woodworks. This is great!
Riggs. wife : "can you move that table an inch to the right?" , "best i can do is move the couch an inch to the left"
I read this early in the video, but I definitely didn’t get it until the end. Great joke! 😂
Wouldnt you just rip the tape off the floor if you bumped the table?
🧢🧢😹😹🤫🤫💸💸
Riggs - I'm watching this 3+ years later, but I love the color paired with the leather couch!
I think it would be interesting to see you do a project with only the simplest tools a weekender/beginner might have.
I like that idea

I’d like that

@@timothykarpov1432 Pine gets no love but I'd like to see something built from clear spruce. It's a beautiful wood, it's just tricky to work into anything other than a stud. It splinters and holds sap. It doesn't stain well, but why would you wanna stain a beautiful piece of clear anyway.
😂. For a minute there I thought that was Riggs talking: LOW-end…like dog height. 😂
Riggs. I absolutely love the simple legs you made for this table. Just straight pieces with a small, lovely roundover on the edges. The simple shapes really allowed for one to focus on the stunning grain. Fantastic work, Cam.
Riggs, I myself would like to see projects that I call “Realistic “ meaning affordable and functional for the hobbyist woodworker who does projects for friends and family and not as a living source of income.

this isnt the right channel for that,check out "boyscout level woodworking" and it will help you do that "old pallet/cottage bookshelf" you have always dreamed of
Riggs called, he wants a walnut trimmed bed. Gobi-great!
Then you must mean my bed. It’s his favorite
Riggs, can you make an update video to show old furniture ? for example I would like yo know how this table is doing now ?
I’ve thought about doing that actually
I'd really like to see some projects that mediocre people(such as myself) can make in a small shop or garage setting.
I’m into that
kind of not what he does,lots of mediocre woodworking channels out there however...i watch this for excellence,perfection,awesomeness...not for blehhhh,mehhhh or whatever
Make that table.
Riggs says he’d like to see more of the charred wood projects and some “realistic” builds. Haha love the troll responses!
I’m in!
Dude. Love the videos. You have commented that you have gotten criticism for your narration pace. Screw that. It’s perfect. Love the work you do and happy you are able to do it full time!!!
Riggs, I'm not a woodworker type although I did take a woodshop class back in '59. I enjoy the time you take to explain what and why you're doing to keep others from these mistakes. You have a subscriber for life. Keep doing what you do, I truly enjoy this app!
Thanks, Rob.
Murtaugh - maybe it was design elements of the base, but this is one of my favorite projects I’ve seen you do. Not the most beautiful or elaborate, but aesthetically pleasing. Nice job.
Shout out to Murtaugh, love it.
Murtaugh must be the cat... lol. Great Work Cam!
thanks for the glue squeeze out tip with the tape, perfect timing for me!
Oh good!
Riggs needs a Murtaugh!
Gorgeous grain on that table.
Question is how do you deal with smaller pieces that develop a twist, only after they have been custom cut and fit. I resorted gluing and screwing with the T10 finish screws and working it into submission. Working on a budget so dropping more money on extra walnut and hickory really isnt my best option.
He does need one! And not sure about that one
Riggs…. Cute doggie. Hello. Fantastic work. You are an inspiration. By the way, I know your list says that Rotex is out of stock, but I'm just curious: is Rotex a model of Festool, or is it another brand? Because I couldn’t find information about it, not other than a Festool model, apparently no longer available. Keep your videos coming.
Riggs, suggest a project for use outdoors. And how to protect it.
I’d like some outdoor projects
Riggs and I like this idea. I was going to suggest the same thing.
Would love that, I do a lot of outdoor projects, despite all my research, I am still uncertain of the best way to weatherproof them, keep in mind, that I live in South Africa and we don't have access to half the finishes that you have in the US.
Riggs, please, please wear safety glasses when doing any cutting, routing, etc. Take it from one who could not see due to an eye disease, when vision comes back (cornea transplant) it is so good. If you would like I will send you a bunch as long as you always use them in your workshop. Great table, as with all your work it looks so good. Cheers
Agreed
Riggs.
Thoughts about the table: round the corners of the top just a little. The sharp corners just doesn't look that good with a raw edge.
Other thoughts: John's Furniture Repair has a "Shop Dog" that is always an enjoyable addition to her videos. The first few videos after she moved didn't have the dog. I think people asked because she made a point of saying Shop Dog moved with her and showing the dog. People love dogs. So yes, Riggs is most welcome.
Final thought: do you put together your furniture in a way that can be easily repaired in the future? Fixing Furniture channel has a lot of insight on that. I think you make incredible furniture that could last 100 years, but then repairs could be a nightmare.
Riggs :) Honestly Cam, if you’re making it I will gladly watch. It’s all interesting and informative to me. Looking forward to seeing you organize and start working in the new shop as well. 🦆
Those are coming!
Riggs. If you haven’t done it already then I would love to see a video where you give some insight into the tools you use the most and what would be the must haves for starting as a complete novice
actually I thin he already mad that video
I REALLY like the videos, I am a new subscriber and will be sharing them with my brother. The walnut grain, texture and finish that you apply to it brings out the real beauty of the wood, you are so lucky to live in that part of the country ( sorry for political reasons) be safe, continue your great work. It will last for years!!🇺🇸
Riggs... love your work. Rough carpenter here in Sweden.
As a guy who builds tables and custom furniture, I really enjoy your videos. Have you ever thought about doing a coffee table made of pallets and using epoxy? I'd be curious to see what you would come up with. I think it would be neat.
Riggs, great table! I would love to see a video comparing the finishes of rubio mono coat, osmo, and odies oil on wood from the same tree.
Good call!
Do some things that NORMAL people can do, throw in a few insane projects every now and then, but everything i've seen you do are just great. Love your work
Riggs would say, “ when drilling in metal on your drill press try moving your clamp to the other side”. It should be better with the torque of the bit. It will push rather than pull. And or butt the piece against a stop or back rail and it should help from lifting or catching. Liked the table a lot and the base. 🤘👍🏻
Smart!
Always use leverage to keep your work from spinning on the drill press. It’s the first thing a machinist apprenticeship learns. And don’t grab the chips with your fingers use a pair of pliers.✌️
Riggs...wondering 3.5 years later, how's it holding up? and I'm curious if you still think your hot glue fanchor idea helped
A giant, U shaped executive/computer desk with hidden cable management
Oh, very cool idea
That'd be awesome
Riggs *Chanting* "DO IT DO I DO IT DO IT"
Riggs and I wanna see that, too!
@@BlacktailStudio I attempted one a couple years ago less the cable management. I didn't give myself enough time to complete it, and then tax season started (am an accountant) and here we are two years later and it's still unfinished!
Hey Cam - I picked up a cordless trim router about 6 months ago (Milwaukie M18 fuel) and I love it. It is not as powerful and the big plunge router, but it is very easy to use ... and the lack of a cord is (for me) a huge plus. Love your videos.
I don’t really do large projects just yet and my shop is small. So while i agree that a trim router is a handy tool for me, i actually like my rigid more than my m18. Some tools that get more continuous use really aren’t as good as their corded counterparts.
I appreciate "out of the box" thinking in design. Riggs has good taste. If he is comfortable with the table, so am I.
Riggs is an awesome addition to the table. I love the way you put it all together. The wood you chose is absolutely gorgeous. I am new to your channel so I haven’t looked into it just yet. Do you make outdoor furniture? Do you use joinery as much as fasteners? I love what I have seen so far.
That’s the best looking free table I’ve ever seen.😳 I love the grain on it so much.🥰
I really love the grain patterns of the wood and how well the finish really brought it out! The one idea I had about stability would be to route out a channel on the bottom for a metal counterweight so that it’s not so top heavy.
RIGGS is adorable and makes a great addition to the photo shoot! Hope his leg is better soon. The table is gorgeous; I love the grain in the walnut and the deep rich color. And as far as suggestions for future projects...I will enjoy watching anything you make. Congratulations on the new house! Stay safe, stay well, and keep creating!
I’ll try not to let ya down!
@@BlacktailStudio I don't think that is even possible!
RIGGS!! Love this design! I am a HUGE fan of Wright’s work so I like how he inspires your designs. On your edge profile, I do that a lot and I find using a nice sharp chisel to complete an edge up to corners does a great job rather than a rasp
Rigg’s is such a great addition to the picture of this great table!!
Like all your work: Timeless and Classic.
Thanks!
Please make more designer-esk copies and adaptations like this. I love the timeless aspect of great design coupled with quality modern workmanship. Great vid mate. Watching from new zealand.
Riggs is very cute, hope his leg healed up ok. I know it's been a while since you made this, but I just love watching you create beautiful things. I make small things like boxes and jewellery, but hoping one day to make something for our house. Thanks for doing what you do, and doing it so well. Keep safe and well.
3 years later, how's the table holding up?
Riggs should be in more videos, also the grain, the Jacket Edge, and the sap wood all make this table beautiful to my eye. I try to work sap wood into my projects, at first because I was too cheap to discard it but in the end I decided that it adds a load of character.
Have you ever considered trying a sofa piece? Or something along those lines? Or like a wood swing, or something odd like that? Thats prob a really dumb question, so I apologize in advance, I just feel like, guys like you can literally make anything.
Love the channel ( though I’ve never picked up a saw ), you are incredibly talented, and love everything you build. Congrats on the new home! Godbless!
Your dogs name is Riggs! My dogs name is Freeda!!
I love your work and how you narrate videos. They are very inspiring and what I like about you is that even though you make high-end work, you’re still humble enough to ask for peoples advice and your willingness to hear suggestions, don’t worry, I don’t have any. Just here to admire your work.
I’m a senior lady…no woodworking skills at all. But your videos are captivating, and you make even ME dream of doing projects…not like yours, but something simple! Excellent workmanship.
Riggs is a beautiful dog. Your table is so beautiful especially the walnut legs. Who wants blah legs with a lovely tabletop? You did exactly the right thing for your new home.
Riggs. Beautiful table. Show the crazy and strange stuff!
Maybe something cheaper? More today's economy priced? I sell tables no where near as yours but I do well for buisness here in TN. All from Facebook messenger. Very Kool though !!
Riggs!
Hey Cam, love the 3 legs look. That Walnut grain pops so beautifully. I just finished a 3 legged surf board table with Port Orford Cedar leggs
RIGGS… are you offering merchandise such as the TShirts you wear, maybe some mug designs? You know, the standard obligatory stuff for us guys who just can’t afford your beautiful and extraordinary pieces?
I’ll watch your SAME VIDEOS OVER AND OVER AND OVER. Just the woods colors are overwhelming to me. Thank God for that top notch camera (Nikon) you have…
For what it's worth. Next time you get your festool pinched. Drop your depth, release the front clip and remove your blade from the machine. Then a mallet and a piece of wood to hit the blade. From a Guy who also does wood work. Your end results are awesome 👌. Thanks for the work. SAYING HAVE A BLESSED DAY FURTHER FROM SOUTH AFRICA. Enjoy the man Glitter
Riggs... 3 years late! Haha I havent watched EVERY video yet, but i wonder, with your imagination, what could you build for $100 only shopping at Home Depot???? After all, as beautiful as your projects are, its your brainfulness that makes it even more interesting to watch...
Riggs....re-watching this three years later and having seen so many of your subsequent videos, I know that this is a moot point (or a "Moo" point as Joey would say) but the troll comment was completely off the mark. Your narration is an absolute selling point for your videos. Of course your woodworking mastery is so wonderful to watch but being able to hear your thought processes is a joy and your speaking style is totally engaging.
Riggs is adorable under your new table. I hope his leg heals fast.
I enjoy your videos with their commentary. It really doesn't matter to me what particular project you film, as I am just here to enjoy the process.
Thank you for sharing!
Here’s a true story about FLW. . He designed a house for Curt Johnson of Johnson Wax fame. Mr. Johnson and FLW were quite close.
Anyhow, FLW not only designed the house, but the furniture also. Mr. Johnson’s wife died, and Mr. Johnson remarried. New wife did not like the furniture, and found new furniture she liked. Frank was staying with the Johnsons and noted the new furniture. After everyone went to bed FLW had found the original furniture he designed and put it all back. The next morning, Mrs. Johnson was less-than-impressed, MUCH, MUCH LESS IMPRESSED. FLW asked Mrs. Johnson if she now understood why the house was more complete with his furniture. The much, much, less-than-impressed Mrs. Johnson had FLW put her furniture back, once that was complete, he was removed from the Johnson home. He never was invited back again.
RIGGS~~
I'd like to see more crazy creative stuff....I love watching you brainstorming ways to create things.
(PS: I'm from the South and you talk too fast....hehe)
This wood working artist really Riggs up a beautiful table for his home. Love it!
I never expected that grain to pop like that.
Riggs.
1. To my eye the table "legs" look....well....a little "clunky." That's just me, but it's why I always put a taper or a curved taper to legs. But then, I'm very much an amatuer (in spelling too, it seems.)
2. About glue. I do a quite a bit of wood turning and formerly used Tight bond III. The problem was that in making bowls using glued up pieces to make the blank, eventually at the joints there would be some "creep" after a few weeks. So, these days I use Tight Bond Original which DOES NOT creep.
Love your videos.
A tip for drilling metal is to start with your smallest drill bit and keep going up in size, drilling the hole bigger each time until you get to the size hole you want.
Riggs … Did you make the size of the legs a 2x4? I find myself always wondering measurements while watching your projects. Another amazing build! Thank you!
Led Zepplin #1. 🤘
Tools. What every viewer should know is that if you are going to do this for a living you are going to end up with a minimum tool investment of $450,000 at today’s prices. But if you really have talent and your pieces are already drawing interest in the five figure and higher range….it is well worth it to mortgage the house and build your tools selection. Because of my hyper-aversion to debt I refuse to purchase anything on credit. NOTHING. So it took me over 30 years AFTER I started selling custom designed pieces to buy everything I thought I would ever need. At that, many of my hand tools are from the golden era of woodworking, 1520-1690 AD. These are the tools I love. Big electrics are nice to have but if a thing CAN be done by hand…it should be. But that’s just me…I would never criticize anyone who turns out beautiful pieces like yours…(unless you just flash everything out on the CNC…I have to draw the line at machines that do the work FOR you. As far as glue…I’ve always made my own. I make three different types, flexibilities and strengths of hide glue and have done this all my life. I started making it for a Spanish guitar maker years ago and never stopped.
RIGGS Very nice. For some reason I thought the legs were going to be installed with the beam portion up underneath the table.
Whenever I can, I will build a quick scale model machete, normally out of paint sticks and bamboo skewers, to check stability.
Dad says, PUT SOME WORK BOOTS ON. Thanks
Riggs 🐶
Always include Riggs where possible…man’s best friend…or in my case the only ones in my home who act like they like me😂
Great work again Cam👌✌️🏴
Rides
All that matters is you and the wide are happy with the table.
As far as the stuck trac saw, we all learn from our mistakes
AWESOME VIDEO BROTHER STAY STRONG AND GOD BLESS
Riggs, love the simple table! I’m currently working on a coffee table, using your system. It’s 4x2. So I’d love to see you make one as well.
Riggs, I grew up in Oak Park, Illinois, which is where FLW’s home and studio are located, and many of his residential buildings, so I have a calibrated FLW eye. 😀. This looks more MCM to me. It’s not your best design andI really don’t like how unstable it is, but I appreciate your efforts at pushing yourself as a designer. You also have beautiful taste in wood.
Riggs, I like the accent style of the table. I would really like to see you try something along the lines of a multi-colored epoxy table made from multiple wood scraps to see how it comes out. Darker, lighter woods, different grains. (Mosaic style?)
When I mean different colors … I mean DIFFERENT greens, blues, oranges etc... (neon?-- maybe not) The table could be another accent piece or maybe more of a unique practical piece.
Riggs: The table is stunning. The design is perfect. When you sell a $1,000 skill saw….you make it powerful AND accurate! I disagree, Cam, even if you have a powerful router, if you are a finish wood craftsman you NEED a trim router….but more importantly you need the best bits available…bits are NOT the place to save money. A rule of thumb is that each of your bits should cost as much as your router (regardless of the router).
Riiggs rocks !!!! Reminds me of my dog Bubba. He always seems to lay / sit on or in front of anything new that I bring into the house. Great project. Beautiful wood grain. Anyone would be proud to own a table of this beauty and quality. I think I would have gone with four legs though. Stability over looks, That.s just me. P.S. The painter's tape on the bottom of the legs??? Great way to solve the stability problem Personally, it would drive me crazy, just knowing it was there even though you can'i see it. lol. Thanks for the great videos.
I have a question, I just started watching your videos and I'm new to wood working (self-learn TH-cam graduate LOL) in farmhouse builds. A friend passed away and his wife just gave me 10 slabs of walnut with bark (aprox 4" thick and 6' long). I want to build a bench in tribute of him to give back to her. What can I do to make the walnut withstand heat and cold of the outdoors? although not directly in the weather (to place on the porch). Should I try to leave the bark on the edges or remove? Will epoxy withstand the elements? Do you have a video already or could you post a video showing a build like this?
Trim Routers are fairly cheap, though. You can get a less than spectacular one from Harbor Freight, but I got a used Dewalt a couple years ago for less than 100 bucks. I think if you go for a refurbed one you can get a decent name brand -- Dewalt, Makita, or Ryobi -- for a reasonable price. And one thing you can do with it is buy an attachment from Banggood that will make it into a domino maker. Or you can probably check out JSKoubou and he's probably got a hand-made version (e.g., trade time for money)
Hello! I enjoy watching your videos. Your work is so beautiful. Suggestion: Make a child’s bed-head board and/or footboard with epoxy that can be lighted. So, the bed becomes a night light. Thanks! Lynn
Riggs, smaller project is an appealing idea. Perhaps something with “butcher block”?
I’m into that
Agreed on the butcher block!
Another one for the butchers block!!
Riggs named after Lethal Weapon?
I have a really cool idea for a project that you could make with some of your smallest scrap pieces and could get you a bunch of exposure with the gaming community.An epoxy resin "river" Dungeon Master's Screen. I actually have plans drawn up for one using SketchUp. I would love to share my idea with you!
I am even PDX local ;)
Riggs, where do you get this wood? Beautiful piece, and amazing piece of furniture. Do you have a good source of wood near southern Ontario? I’m not into woodworking at all, but I really wanted to try some sort of DIY piece of furniture for my house. I love your videos, and I’m impressed how your work got much better throughout the years. I’m not saying anything about your woodworking skills, but your video quality and professionalism.
Hi Riggs (and Cam), I just came across this vid from the past. A very nice 'simplistic' item. One thing I might suggest, for stability, and may not even detract from the overall look, and that would be a BLACK steel plate at the narrow end of the base. It would provide balance, and perhaps some weight, depending upon the thickness/length. Just a thought.
I want to see you make a Cathedral Alms Table (circa 1320-1570). It should not have any hardware and only hide glue (piscine is fine). You should hand make your own glue and lacquer. I make these occasionally and when done right you can sell for a low six figure pay day. It takes about 600 hours.
Riggs. You are so talented! Plus funny! The wood grain is striking on this sofa table. I like seeing your variety of projects. Except that burnt stump with expoxy and light, didn’t like that. Everything else I love!!
Riggs. hey...late to the party, but. just came across this vid. Love the table, and base - the heft of it is really nice. Nice trick to help with the stability. I love the walnut, but I think it kinda gets lost against the brown of the sofa (my opinion only). Why can't you use tite-bond III with walnut?
I have NO wood working experience. That being said, something I always thought would be cool would be to take a tree stump and make it into a chair/ throne. Just cut off the bark/ excess,stain it and put a nice cushion on it....make it look like it was growing out of the ground (maybe add to that by leaving/ adding root pieces to the stump). You see I lean more towards the design/ art side than the engineering/ manufacturing side. I've had this idea since I was 15 and would go Dumpster Diving with friends where I would often see people leaving out tree stumps that they had removed. I always lamented that they'd get thrown into the dump and/ or be ruined by the rain. A few years back I found a stall at a "local" Ren Faire of a company that basically does just that- the bed they made was just mindblowing. Some day i'll have the tools for my throne. Until then, i'll live vicariously through your vids.
Riggs… I think it’s a lovely table. Nice to step out and do different things once in a while. One comment: When I was an apprentice, our shop foreman would have kicked my butt if he’d caught me drilling metal on a drill press we used for wood 😅. Ever since then I’ve always tried to have a metal only press, or a special metal only cover. Just a thought… 😊.
Riggs, I’d love to see you do a few projects without any mechanical fastening: no metal, no screws, no dominoes, just quality joinery. I love your designs and you are a most excellent craftsman. Joinery takes time and perhaps is not commercially viable (customers will only pay so much), but for your own furniture???
Riggs... (GOOD BOY!) Hey, appreciate your invitation to make recommendations for things to see from you in the future... How about projects for those of us who need to make the most of "everyday" tools?
Beautiful! Love the color, grain, novel design, etc. The gouge on the table top I personally would hide by facing it against the sofa. But that's me. Love you work!
Riggs. Writing from London uk. I really like the small side table you made after reluctantly splitting that piece you had for years. I wonder if you sometimes put felt or rubber on the bottom so the tables don’t scratch on the floor(?). I really enjoyed woodworking at school. Your products are superb - functional works of art through high end craft and skill. I’m guessing you don’t ship to the UK. I wonder if you could make a ‘Swiss army knife’ table that has multi functions…
Riggs, the modern designs are pretty cool, but have you ever considered something in a more classical style? It would be cool to see a desk or a chest design from the 18th century that benefits from modern technology/techniques... like a best-of-both-worlds piece. Let me know what you think Cam. Thanks for all your great work.
Riggs adds to the look of the table and sofa. The table behind the sofa looks great - the grain and live edges are excellent. The legs work really well in colour and the cantilever end is very stylish. I am retired and do very little woodwork but your channel is addictive. just the right balance between images/commentary and humour.
I love the channel. Would you consider doing a "cover song" so to speak? I mean using your materials (epoxy and wood varieties) but trying to emulate a design of another well known designer/craftsman? For example, this one was FLW inspired. Or would you ever try embellishments (not sure of the right term)... like scroll work or etching or inlay or even carving (leaves acorns heraldry rustic iconography?)
Riggs. How could anyone NOT make it to the end of your videos? The process and results are always interesting! I’m a film buff, so how about making my dream project of french cleat bluray storage of walnut and resin? Dowel (or square peg) secured shelving in a light wood for exterior contrast, as well as for the cleats. Could a dowel or peg be secured through resin and would resin be strong enough to hold 200 lbs on a wall?
Cam I am at a disabled veteran old veteran I am looking to get to get back into my woodworking which I had to give up for a loss of vision.I Still managed to sneak in some power tools, but mostly my cordless Circular sawEven though it's only a 3 and a 1/2 inch. I live in Kelso Washington, And I'm tired of sitting around in my chair watching TV And I need to get my butt up and get active into something I'm loving. My biggest obstacle is that I do not drive anymore. I am thinking about doing some epoxy work And I would love to find a place that I could get quality stock from near me When I do not have access to a truck. So keeping costs down is essential, But I don't want to give up when working altogether. Any information or assistance you can throw my way Would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim Jardin
Shout Out Riggs!!! More power to you my friend and to your channel Blacktail Studio.. from your number 1 follower from Philippines 🇵🇭
Riggs!!!!
Hey congrats on the subscription gain over the course of Covid man! I have been watching your videos sense 16k subscribers and you have inspired me to take on a love of my own, I’d love to see you do a wood table/epoxy pour but make the style of the epoxy inspired by acrylic pouring art that people do on canvases. That’ll be amazingly cool!!
RIGGS. Unfortunately I don't like this one sorry but that is just me. Maybe 150mm down and something to strengthen (stabilize)that leg. The finish looks awesome as always.
Riggs, I’ve watched a few of your videos, and I like the way you explain every project, and the result, that’s it for now. I’m in the process to moving back to my country (Social Security doesn’t allow me to live in California no more), and I’m planning to build a shop at my new house in Argentina to work on wood projects, like I used to do here, that’s why I love to watch yours and another wood workers’ videos. Thanks for the good tips, and keep going!
Riggs - get well! FLW-style table looks great with that leather couch. Nice work. Never heard about TB3 glue being incompatible with walnut - I'll watch that. Thanks!
Hi, I'm planning on making a kitchen-bar table and it would be my first! I'm in highschool so I don't have too much experience but I have made a desk for my room. Do you have any tips for a first time kitchen table maker? Also I'm basing my design off of the ikea "nordviken" design. Thanks!
Riges thanks for the videos I truly appreciate the content you make. I’m not a woodworker but find you videos relaxing. God bless!
