    I'll vouch for your courses. Last year I bought the Longview Table. I'll soon be purchasing the matching chair course. After that I plan on building your Spider Table.
    I highly recommend the courses for beginners and intermediate builders, especially if you're like me--you suck at design. I'd call myself an...advanced intermediate...builder.

      Thank you for the kind words and support. Always appreciate hearing it from other people. I genuinely do believe we make the best plans out there...but obviously I'm going to be biased. I hope that people who watch the channel often know that I'm not a very "braggadocios" kind of guy. But at the end of the day...I'm selling woodworking courses...so it's understandable that people might take my opinion with a grain of salt.

      Just stopping by to agree: Foureyes plans are the best of the best. Absolutely worth the investment given the DAYS of problem-solving they save you, and they really do include cool skills that you’ll keep using in other projects.

      I'm a small shop out of Florida, your plans look great plus the fact that you off a template too is really top tier. I think setting up a large catalogue of designs for sale or licensing would be the way to go, I do custom commissions so everything is a one off and I wish I had fusion back then to remake with ease to resell a cool piece.

      Hell, I just purchased your plans for your designs.
      The Longview will look perfect in my dining room, so even though I don’t need the walk through on technique, I am in it for the great design aspects. Especially the leg assembly.

      ​@@Foureyes.FurnitureYour humility and modesty do come through in your videos, but you're right: Your courses are some of the best I've seen in thirty years. You should be proud of them. They're incredibly inexpensive relative to all that they offer and the attention to detail in their production.
      I've learned more about design from your videos and plans in two years than I have from all other sources since I started building. I'm nearing completion on my first MCM inspired pedestal table that I designed and owe its (hopeful) success to you.
      Keep it up.

    I think an interesting idea for the leftover epoxy top (if that ends up being the leftover) is to make it a shelf underneath a higher and larger clear-top table. We had one like that in our previous house (albeit a circular table that can seat up to a dozen people), where the lower shelf was used to store extra coasters or even refills for the self-serve dishes people are eating (an extra basket of garlic bread, for instance).

  • @Incandescentiron
    @Incandescentiron ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Honestly, the transparent top you show in the thumbnail is the best because it shows the cool structure of the legs underneath it. You said the design was all about the legs, but we can't see the legs with either the black top or the solid wood top. Transparent top is the winner!

    That base is so beautiful that a transparent top (as shown in the thumbnail) would look great on it. Also, if the epoxy top needs a new purpose, I'd go with a smaller base; it felt like it was drowning in / being suffocated by the base from this video.

    I see your point about the black epoxy top. What about using the CNC to carve in a Celtic Knot pattern or some other geometric design that you could fill with a white epoxy or some other contrasting color? Gold would most certainly be eye popping.

    Hey, i have recently been to a restaurant. They had glass tops and over it was thin layer of 1cm clear silicone/plastic. It was to protect the glass top and also give option to keep their menu in between the layers. This would keep your epoxy top scratch free and also be usable. Easily cleaned.

    I really like the look of the epoxy top more then the wooden top, but I understand the issues of scuffing overtime.

  • @chaosmensch
    @chaosmensch ปีที่แล้ว

    13:22 cnc tearout with wood, is avoided by switching the tool to an opposite-cutting tool, during the machining of the part.
    It's a bit more programming (if you have a good programm and experience), and an automatic tool-changer is nice to have too.
    For those, who dont understand the concept behind that, it's probably more understandable, when we compare it to a peace of lumber, that you try to cut to length with a dull sawblade.
    At the (2) sides, where the blade cuts in the wood, you get a clean cut, but there, where your blade comes aut of the wood it tears out.
    So when you propperly change the cnc-tools from clockwise and counterclockwise cutting tools, you can always cut into the material and avoid tearout.
    In praxis you will cut with one tool by all the tearout-spots, (that apply to that tool,) a little bit (~2cm) from the outside of the material, onto your toolpath, change the tool and then cut around the material on the original toolpath (like in the video). but because the material by all the thearout-spots is now already removed, it can't tear out anymore.
    In industrial production, with good machines 4 axis+/5 axis cnc, you'd prabably make it similar like him and cut the teared out parts with a good, cnc-mounted sawblade away.

    To Stop breakout on the corners of solid wood on the CNC router, you need two specific things.
    1. Router must both be climb cutting as well as "roll around corners" machining
    2. Finishing Compression cut tool .
    First you rough cut the outer shape leaving 3mm oversize, then clean cut with higher RPM and slower feed at full depth of cut.

    the black epoxy really looks gorgeous with the base. ik its tough with being used but truly it looks great

    Amazing video. I'm partial to the walnut top. The epoxy top can be a cool wall hanger like Cam did with the moisture trapped table.

    easy way to see how much i need when im doing silicone . i fill the area with rice. then put that rice back into a bucket an i fill to that mark on the bucket. because i hate doing the math. I love your design of the table. its lovely.

    I have to admit, that is a very clean table. Love the design.

    Question about routing for joints 15:53 . You leave the joints long already and cut them with the table saw to length. Can you route the extra maybe 1”-3” then cut them on the table saw to length and then finish route them to avoid the sanding?

    • @Foureyes.Furniture
      @Foureyes.Furniture  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah...you could. A few people have asked this. There are 2 problem in my opinion. First, it'll be harder to use the sled jig for cutting joint faces with the rounded edges. And also then you have to have things line up perfectly during the glue up...or you're still going to. need to finesse it, and you'll have less material to finesse.

    Thank you for the tutorial on doing the transition between to the two segments to make a smooth transition on the run over on each part it makes more sense to do it that way than risking. Not having a smooth transition between the segments. Keep up the good work, my friend.

    I vote glass top.
    I have a coffee table i somehow "acquired" from an apt building storage room 30 years ago. It has glass transparent top so craftsmanship/beauty of legs is there for all to see. If epoxy isn't transparent, acrylic or glass top would be better than chunky wood top. IMHO

    Sweet table.
    Was thinking about your joinery for the base. Instead of the safe and difficult method of using a rasp and hand sanding the joints, you could make a sacrificial block of wood with a tenon that is the same dimensions as your main piece, temporarily fix it in the mortise, and route all the way through into the spare block. Could be safe and easier.

    • @Foureyes.Furniture
      @Foureyes.Furniture  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you...yeah, there are a few things you could do. One of the other problems though...is that if you cut it before...then you're glue up has to be extremely accurate. Where as this way there is a bit more wiggle room.
      The best option is on a larger piece where you glue up and then cut roundovers after the assembly. Router wouldn't fit well here though.

    Hi Chris,
    I started watching this video thinking I might learn something about using a new material to make tops for furniture pieces. The prospect of a transparent/translucide top with more than two centimeters thickness and a top that weighed less than a small car (I have used glass and stone for tops of similar sized pieces) was intriguing. But what I think I learned is that I really don’t want to deal with plastic shavings and dust in the shop. Hazmat suits are fine, but if you don’t need one it’s probably better. What I ended up appreciating the most was, as always with your videos, the design process. Who knew flies could be so interesting ? Anyway, thanks for the explanations. I’ll be waiting for the next installment.
    Cheers,
    Keith

    The wood top is pretty stunning, I do agree with you on why you decided to make it.

  • @ganjalfcreamcorn8438

    both are pretty gorgeous, id prefer the wood though. the base is definitely the best part, super slick.

      It’s a very touching story. Jack’s dad, Fred was my basketball coach when I was a kid… and now he is my real estate agent. He is an awesome guy, and it’s amazing to see how he has turned literally the worst thing a parent could go through, into such positivity. Jack has saved numerous other lives already, and hopefully the message will save countless more.

    I love the idea that a table whose entire inspiration and reason for being was centered around making use of leftover epoxy ends up without the epoxy top. It has a bit of a "ship of Theseus" feel to it. 😄

    • @Foureyes.Furniture
      @Foureyes.Furniture  ปีที่แล้ว

      Good call...Is it a leftover epoxy table if it contains no left over epoxy any longer? :)

  • @cropcircle5693
    @cropcircle5693 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The epoxy top would be great a shelf level below a top. Maybe a glass top? Good for art books or a sculptural piece. It would get much traffic and very little touching but you'd still see the strong black look of it.

    Simple yet complex & the all deep-black top is the perfect contrast! :O

    I love all of this video. You did a beautiful job. You're really good with editing, amazing at the building process, and have a great banter side of things. I believe you deserve millions of views on every video and even more millions of subscribers. You deserve nothing short of success, friend.

    fwiw i always called that shape a Raceway. Awesome idea for some waste resin. Im impressed that you realized that black epoxy wasnt the most ideal surface for a heavily used area. Both tops look amazing.

  • @3ddrew691
    @3ddrew691 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I would have picked both tops. Change it up every few months. They both look beautiful. Also balcktail studios nanocoating would have probably worked for the epoxy top. Love this table

    Split screen advert works! Keeps attention better than simple talking to screen about the advert product! Eye flicks back and forth, and somehow, I take in both screens
