A weekend plywood butcher like me can only dream of doing work like this - incredibly skilled craftsmanship producing a stylistically simple but mechanically impressive product. Anyone who has the opportunity to learn from you in person is extremely fortunate.
Your keen eye for detail is more than impressive, mate. The pride you take in your work shines through. You are a true craftsman, with amazing skills 👍
Absolutely gorgeous table. Your attention to detail is fantastic and your craftsmanship is outstanding. Your apprentice is lucky to be learning so much great techniques.
What a lot of work! It came out amazing! Your hand joinery skill continue to impress me. I loved the simple yet clever trick of the tape on the back of your saw when flush cutting the dowels, genius!
Very useful to mention the time you spent doing a tak or another ! As a beginner, it is very hard to tell if I'm slow or not. Thanks for the video and beautilful job !
I am impressed! Will have to make one for myself soon. I worked a lot with multi-segmented wooden dovetail extension slides when I was restoring antiques. Never occurred to me to incorporate slides in the rails. Genius!
The subjects covered in this woodworking website t.co/z6o0f8z2H4 varies from wood types to tool types and uses. A few other subjects range from the various kinds of wood along with their distinct levels of difficulty when it comes to managing them. If you are still a beginner in wood working, then you will find this book very beneficial.
Nice job, I just subscribed to your channel. I love your projects.....and I love the fact that there is no arrogance and ego.....just sound work and skill. Well done.
Very nice, excellent vid! I've been using the wipe on poly for years, it's "fast" and it protects better, although it doesn't compare to the feel of a hand rubbed oil finish!
You Have Made Many Very Nice Projects , But This Table Is By Far ( in my opinion ) The Best , The Cleanest , The Most Beautiful ..Oh Crap ...Just Hit Me In The Head With A Shovel
Beautiful work Joey. Getting your head around those leg joints with dovetails in two directions would be a feat for me - you make it look easy though. I see you still use your panel saw a lot like a cabinet makers tablesaw - working to the right of the blade but old habits and training die hard I guess. I'd like one but space is the issue for me and I can't part with my other toys. Cheers and thanks for the insight on something I'd likely not try.
I too have been frustrated by how much wood can cup/ warp over night :( So sympathies with you. I like Minwax and also wipe on with a rag rather than a brush. to me it does not leave the brush marks or drips. A very nice Table. I hope you factored in the extra time for the BB ends and the extra flattening. A days is a lot of money in a commercial business.
Love this table, and just getting into make stuff so going after this as a big project in my near future! Thanks for lots of great ideas! Please keep up the great work!!!
Thanks for your awesome video. I like it very much. Great craftsmanship! I have a question about using Epoxi Glue: Doesn`t seem to be a 2K one. Or if, it should have a big processing time, preventing you are in hurry with assembling the counter framework. From which plant do you buy it? Why don`t you use normal wood glue like Titebond or Titebond-Ultimate for that job?
Great design. I think I will attempt something similar. What did you do to keep the sliding rails from sliding all the way apart when you pull the ends open?
The small blocks to keep the middle peace in place under the table probably won't get much force applied to them unless you really jam the middle piece in there, but it always worries me if something is impacted and is just held on by inflexible glue like CA or epoxy. They're just too damn brittle sometimes. A dowel or two takes care of the problem. But like I said, unlikely to cause problems with this one.
Great workmanship Joey. The end result table looks solid. Have you seen the extender tables where the middle section has a hinged middle? The middle section centre line is hinged and the two panels fold up from the outer edge of the table (into a V with apex on longitudinal centre line) and folds under the main table. Then the two end table surfaces push together to fill the gap? No doubt you have. It's a tried and true method of extension where the legs contacting the ground remain fixed. I like your table but my only negative comment is "if I asked my wife and sister to extend the table" I would have to do it. ;-) regardless. great work and keep at it.
After watching the first 30 sec I cant see how the rail spacing would obstruct storing the leaf. It appears that there is ample room as he drops it in there. However, the offset might make it easier to lift it out?
Interesting with the pins in the breadboards. I would've thought they were the right amount of "drawing", having done mine too little. Must be a fine line between too much and not enough. Awesome design man!
Joey, thanks for the very instructional video - a beautiful table. It wasnt clear to me how you prevented the table from coming completely apart if it was pulled too far. How did you accomplish that?
You made the sliding dovetail look easier than it actually is, not thru editing but with your ability. I like the oak and cherry combo. Did you notice any blotching with the cherry? Great project, well done, thanks for posting
So what did the New Zealand new owner end up paying for the table? Here in Switzerland a custom table like that would be about $ 3'500... At the cheapest.
Nice job as usual joey - do you use any filler powders ( colloidal silica) in your epoxy when using it for gluing or is it just regular 2 part epoxy? I'm experimenting with different glues at the moment and there are defo advantages with epoxy , just want to make sure I'm getting best strength possible. Thanks and keep it up!
I wanted to build one of these for my new house. And my research has brought me to this video. I love it, great job. However I do not have access or a way to cut this dove tails/ channels. Do you have any suggestions for an Alternative?
Joey, I LOVE this piece. I did not see where you added stops to prevent the dovetails from coming apart while trying to add leaves. How did you do that?
I am actually in the proces of making sliding dovetails as well to make an extendable dining table. Did you do anything to the dovetails in the end? Did you leave them untreated or did you stain/poly them or left them as is? to achieve better sliding, would you also recommend using some sort of wax to reduce friction?
@@KingPostTimberWorks Im not completely sure what you exactly mean, as I am not too aware of the terminology. When you say "outside show faces", are you referring to the parts of the slide that are contact with the center slide (you refer as the dovetail?)
Nice build. Those breadboard ends looked like a lot of work. It's funny about resawing lumber. I just did a bunch of maple for flooring and there always seems to be some cupping in the boards after they are sawn, I guess it has to do with uneven moisture content between the outside and inside of the stock??

Absolutely gorgeous table. Your attention to detail is fantastic and your craftsmanship is outstanding. Your apprentice is lucky to be learning so much great techniques.
Awesome table. That sliding table saw is so clutch. Being able to joint one edge and then quickly rip it to size seems like such a time saver
Yes its such a multi use tool , far more versatile then a smaller table saw .
Is that his kind of saw not very common in the US ? Here in France, and europe I believe, it is very common in woorworking shops.
@@ericfrisard2060 they have them. But they are not common
What a premium table creation! I salute you sir!

Really nice job Joey, love the contrast of cherry and oak together and the breadboard ends.
beautiful table and with unique features that set it apart from others.
Really nice table. Enjoyed the joinery.
Nice job,
I just subscribed to your channel. I love your projects.....and I love the fact that there is no arrogance and ego.....just sound work and skill.
Well done.

Very nice, excellent vid! I've been using the wipe on poly for years, it's "fast" and it protects better, although it doesn't compare to the feel of a hand rubbed oil finish!
Thanks for sharing this nice job you got my subscription for that
Bloody nice. Think I've said this before, don't stop making vids - I enjoy 'em too much.
Those sliding dovetail rails are great
This is an amazing table! Thanks for sharing, always learn something from your videos!

Great work! Love how it turned out.

good design and good performance
Great job sir!
Really nice work
Yes! It’s an extender!
Thanks for your awesome video. I like it very much. Great craftsmanship!

Great job Joey! Great from Holland
Freaking gorgeous! Great work!

In 500 years antique restoration guy: “We recogneize Joey’s work by the jigsaw marks he left on the joints”
So there’s that 😉
Hahaha that's cool
Joey, wouldn't you want to add a stop so the two sections of the table couldn't be fully pulled apart? Love the look of the finished piece very much.
Use that nail trick as well. Surprises me that not a lot of people know about it.
Beautiful table! Tfs :-)
Great workmanship Joey. The end result table looks solid. Have you seen the extender tables where the middle section has a hinged middle? The middle section centre line is hinged and the two panels fold up from the outer edge of the table (into a V with apex on longitudinal centre line) and folds under the main table.

This type of table is called a "Butterfly leaf"
Btw. Your "clever trick" you forgot, was that you can actually slide the middle piece in. If it was spaced evenly that wouldn't be possible.
After watching the first 30 sec I cant see how the rail spacing would obstruct storing the leaf. It appears that there is ample room as he drops it in there. However, the offset might make it easier to lift it out?
Hi Joey found this the other day on youtube and thought of you. Ancient Technology of Making Cabinet Furnitures - Impossible Looking Dovetail Joint
Great table... Greetings from Germany :)
Trabaja muy bien el man, claro que con ayuda de exelentes herramientas pero de todos modos un berraco.
Interesting with the pins in the breadboards. I would've thought they were the right amount of "drawing", having done mine too little. Must be a fine line between too much and not enough. Awesome design man!
Joey, thanks for the very instructional video - a beautiful table. It wasnt clear to me how you prevented the table from coming completely apart if it was pulled too far. How did you accomplish that?
Exactly
That’s what I was wondering
So I read the description, perhaps I will maybe will check out your podcast. Maybe 😀
You made the sliding dovetail look easier than it actually is, not thru editing but with your ability. I like the oak and cherry combo. Did you notice any blotching with the cherry? Great project, well done, thanks for posting
Love the idea thx !!!
So what did the New Zealand new owner end up paying for the table?
Here in Switzerland a custom table like that would be about $ 3'500... At the cheapest.
Yup about that
i'll make one of this someday...no matter how long it takes for me to do it!!! lol
Nice job as usual joey - do you use any filler powders ( colloidal silica) in your epoxy when using it for gluing or is it just regular 2 part epoxy? I'm experimenting with different glues at the moment and there are defo advantages with epoxy , just want to make sure I'm getting best strength possible. Thanks and keep it up!
I use epoxy glue by CRC /ados they call it builders glue. It's nice and thick and easy to mix.
thank you
Nice
Awesome
Great table! How do you remove the hardened epoxy to ensure it doesnt show up when finishing?
Hi Joey- what’s your thoughts on using the big domino for the breadboard ends?
I wanted to build one of these for my new house. And my research has brought me to this video. I love it, great job. However I do not have access or a way to cut this dove tails/ channels. Do you have any suggestions for an Alternative?
You could use heavy duty drawer slides instead
Joey, I LOVE this piece. I did not see where you added stops to prevent the dovetails from coming apart while trying to add leaves. How did you do that?
No stopper, the last 150mm or so is actually quite hard to pull out due to the weight kind of jambing the dovetails.
I am actually in the proces of making sliding dovetails as well to make an extendable dining table.
Did you do anything to the dovetails in the end?
Did you leave them untreated or did you stain/poly them or left them as is?
to achieve better sliding, would you also recommend using some sort of wax to reduce friction?
Definitely add some candle wax .
@@KingPostTimberWorks Thanks!
Stain and Poly? or leave it bare?
@@makesandskates I'd do the outside show faces . And leave the actual dovetail waxed only.
@@KingPostTimberWorks Im not completely sure what you exactly mean, as I am not too aware of the terminology.
When you say "outside show faces", are you referring to the parts of the slide that are contact with the center slide (you refer as the dovetail?)
Nice build. Those breadboard ends looked like a lot of work. It's funny about resawing lumber. I just did a bunch of maple for flooring and there always seems to be some cupping in the boards after they are sawn, I guess it has to do with uneven moisture content between the outside and inside of the stock??
