Waw even the work can speak for it self but how you talked about it and describe it tells how much you love your work, Thanks for that 🧡💯🪵and for the inspiration 👍
Means the world coming from you dylan. Thank you. And yes once I got the hang on sharpening it it’s been getting a ton of use. Raising the bevel angle to 30 helped immensely with edge retention. I’ve still gotta make that dai for my kanna too!
I really enjoyed the build. It’s nice to see your practical blend of hand and power tool use. Also nice to see a shop with well used, worn, and well cared for tools 😊😊. As for Michter’s Bourbon, yes it is delicious. I love that caramel sweetness. It’s a nice foil to some of the too rye forward Bourbons out there. Makes excellent Manhattans too.

Incredible stuff here... I can’t believe you do all that in that small space.. simply awesome and a video I’ll save... hey.., also an avid bourbon drinker!!!
Thanks man! I’ve got some pedestrian builds slated up for the more immediate future but I’ve also got my eyes on another nakashima table. Appreciate you watching!
@@CowDogCraftWorks I look forward to seeing the next video, I'm sure it will great viewing. You have a lucky friend and thanks for taking the time to put work out for us all, much appreciated 👍
I’m a little confused because I already follow you and know of you but I feel like this is the first video of yours I’ve seen. I’ll have to go back in the catalog and see what’s familiar. Anyway, I’m very impressed and inspired. Incredible work, great use of hand tools and power tools in concert. Excellent finished product.
Yeah man YT is a little weird with the subscription format. Newer content doesn’t seem to get pushed so much. That’s why we all say to hit that bell so you can turn on notifications for new videos! Glad you enjoyed it and even more proud to have inspired you. Cheers.
Great craftsmanship and skill, thanks for showing you don't need a big workshop to make beautiful work. Enjoyed watching, maybe just balance the music (loud) and voice (quiet) a little.
The only bummer thing is that on that bottom stretcher I really wished I could have draw bored it in. I was just thinking after the dry fit how much of a pain in the ass it would be to take it apart and relocate it for a dry fit.
It’s an awesome book! The new nakashima design book that George’s family has been offering is a cool read too. It’s a bit more of an advertisement but it goes through their process and has pricing for their furniture which is pretty alarming and eye opening stuff.
Neat. A few questions: 1. Can you smoke that hemp oil? 2. Do you know how adorable you are counselor? I think I’ve said the same thing on a previous video comment section. 3. Do you know how much daddy misses you? That mahogany is rich. You did it great justice. TH-cam crammed a couple of ads in there. Hopefully you get a check.
Hi there, I like your table a lot! Have you build it for yourself or for a customer? How do you prevent the table top from cupping? Maybe I have missed this part. Thank you!
That was for a client/friend. So proper selection and ensuring the slab is air dried helps. I don’t really believe in c channel or more “restraint” oriented alternatives because ultimately it will restrict the movement to the point of cracking or checking. It’s important to note that George Nakashima didn’t use steel to keep his slabs flat either. It was very strict selection. You’ll see battens on the underside but that just keeps things “together” since he wasn’t using dominos or biscuits for alignment.
Wow I like your thinking! So you could... you would have to do it along the width of the table because of wood movement but perhaps cutting the dovetail into the lateral support piece at the top of the leg assembly could work. That also could help mitigate any future cupping. Quite a brilliant idea.
@@CowDogCraftWorks Thank you. As a woodworker myself, I think it would make the piece *higher-end*, like you said it would help with the potential of cupping, but also help preserve the traditional look of this beautiful piece/design. Food for thought for future pieces
Great work! One questionen: what kind of liquid do you put on your wood while chiseling. Just water to make the grain softer or something special? Thank you!
I did not actually. Just very light coats. Like the rag is charged up but it’s not so wet that you can squeeze oil out of it. So real milk paint company has a solvent that can be used to thin pure tung oil that’s food safe, it’s a citrus solvent. I haven’t used it yet but I’m pretty eager to. I don’t think it lowers the viscosity enough to really “penetrate” any quicker. But I do think it thins it enough to make the oil easier to work with if that makes sense.
@@CowDogCraftWorks sweet. Yea I use their stuff frequently. Most often I've been using their Half & Half with the solvent already mixed in. I'm in NY so unless its warm out I find the Pure Tung oil to be a little thick for the first few coats.
I think, but do not know for a fact, that they’re pure tung is so thick because it’s “pre-polymerized” a touch... probably to help with cure times, but that does result in a thicker product. A few folks I know say the woodcraft tung is substantially thinner... but it takes forever to cure.
I know you used 8/4 hardwood, but what width/height did you use for the supports/stretcher? 3” or 4” maybe? I’ve watched this a handful of times now. Truly inspiring work. My wife loves it and I’m going to try my best to make one for our new home. I’ll buy the plans if you sell them.
The stretcher on the top is probably online like 2x2… the one on the bottom I believe was in that 3”-3.5”. I don’t have plans, especially since it’s a Conoid variant… but I do encourage you to just sort of hold parts up to each other to see what proportions are more pleasing to your eye.
@@CowDogCraftWorks Thanks so much for the response. That makes sense that you wouldn’t sell plans when the piece is inspired by Nakashima’s work. It’s worth repeating that your work here is astounding. I loved the bench you made as well; really glad I stumbled on your channel a couple weeks back.
There’s actually a fair amount of the trees in our area. It was felled and milled locally. We get a lot of Honduran mahogany here too... but the leaves were a lot smaller so the sawyer believes it’s Cuban.
How far do you go on finishing the underside of a table or bench top? I’ve been finishing mine as nicely as the top but it seems a wasted effort at times….
All that beautiful joinery and you finish it by attaching the top with a piece of metal. I'm not sure how I feel about that. Beautiful work, truly inspiring! I subscribed, man, I'm digging your vibe!
I also need to try that oil you are using. Been so caught up with shellac. I miss miss using danish oil or polymerized tung oil just because how easy it is.
For starters: buying live edge slabs and buying a jointer are not correlated. That’s like saying, how are you buying a steak when you don’t own a microwave? Furthermore, I’m like 5’8 and 140 lbs soaking wet with change in my pockets so the idea of using a jointer of any kind with a large ungainly slab by myself sounds like a nightmare. And to get the result I did, you’d have to run them side by side so they would mate perfectly which makes it even more clumsy and dangerous for me. Using a jointer plane... was not only the most sensible alternative in my humble opinion but the one I was most comfortable with. And candidly as we say in the legal field... res ipsa loquitur... the thing speaks for itself.
@@The_Conqueeftador Nah . It's painfully obvious you speak from regurgitation and not experience. Stick around though, you may learn some more things to regurgitate later. Like match jointing.
@@CowDogCraftWorks The point I was making was that live slabs are stupid expensive. So it felt weird that you bought a live slab before a semi basic tool like a jointer. Then I rewatched the video and noticed how you got it locally from a friend and it is not one of the more expensive wood slabs like I am used to working with. Sorry for your confusion.

Waw even the work can speak for it self but how you talked about it and describe it tells how much you love your work, Thanks for that 🧡💯🪵and for the inspiration 👍
Much appreciated 🥰
Beautiful tribute to a Japanese man who became a American National Treasure. Well done video; entertaining and instructional.
I’ve got another nakashima inspired build in works. Stay tuned!
With each video I find myself thinking, “huh, this is some of his best work.” Keep it up!
Started with a French cleat shop cabinet and now we here... started from the bottom now my whole team here...
The joinery on this is incredible
Thank you!
George has been my inspiration,,,, wonderful job!!!!
Thank you! His work is very moving.
Beautiful work, great tribute to Mr. Nakashima's legacy.
Much appreciated
Very nicely done. Thanks!
Spot on! The Soul of a Tree is an excellent book. ✔
Thanks jerry. Yea it’s a phenomenal book. Making this table was definitely my “yoga” for the past month.
Amazing woodworking and excellent choice in whiskey too!
Thank you! And yeah that michter’s US1 is excellent.
Absolutely beautiful table and 100% on the Michter's.
I almost forgot that I did a bourbon review on that video. Probably means I’m due for another one!
Beautiful build and end result. You got me with that finger blasting comment though 🤣
Mission accomplished.
Awesome build! I like your blend of hand and power tools, and using difficult traditional joinery methods. Much kudos to you!
Thanks brother!
You’re a great craftsman. Really nice joinery and hand tool skills
Thank you! It was definitely a labor of love.
I now before true master keep it up.👍🌺🛫

Great job, dude. Came out fantastic. Really enjoyed the video.
Thanks mike. Super proud of it.

Always a pleasure to watch your beautiful work and listen to your commentary!
Also, you seem to be really enjoying that chisel ;)
Means the world coming from you dylan. Thank you. And yes once I got the hang on sharpening it it’s been getting a ton of use. Raising the bevel angle to 30 helped immensely with edge retention. I’ve still gotta make that dai for my kanna too!

Thanks bud!
This was an incredible-beautiful build! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you! Not a pure nakashima reproduction but I like to think I did it justice.
great skills and a super reproduction of a classic design,, fine work, well done
Thanks Roger. One of my favorite builds. I’m in the middle of another nakashima recreation. Curious how it’s gonna go.
@@CowDogCraftWorks you're welcome are you filming this next project to share with us all ? Was the table built for yourself?

Like your work Man. Inspired Thanks. Subscribed. Read Soul of a Tree last night. I'm on my way.

I dig you ethan... I dig you bruh.

It depends. On this one it’s entirely plane finished but I had some knotty alder the other day and I wouldn’t dare try and plane that nonsense.
I love this. this is a great piece of work!
Would you be able to attach the slab top to the base using sliding dovetails?

@@CowDogCraftWorks working on my own rendition right now. Last question, I promise: after milling were the 8/4 still a full 2 inches thick?
@@RyanWattersRyanWatters definitely not. I think it was in that 1 3/4 - 1 5/8 range.

There’s actually a fair amount of the trees in our area. It was felled and milled locally. We get a lot of Honduran mahogany here too... but the leaves were a lot smaller so the sawyer believes it’s Cuban.
How far do you go on finishing the underside of a table or bench top? I’ve been finishing mine as nicely as the top but it seems a wasted effort at times….

The two dislikes are from IKEA and Kreg.
IKEA can’t handle this sauce. Too much sauce.
@@CowDogCraftWorks meatball sauce.
This only has 721 views because you push saws instead of pulling them.
Seriously though, great work both on the table and the video.
I pulled one... lolz.
All that beautiful joinery and you finish it by attaching the top with a piece of metal. I'm not sure how I feel about that.
Beautiful work, truly inspiring! I subscribed, man, I'm digging your vibe!
Thanks man. Glad to have you.
do you have drawings for this table??
I do not. Honestly the way I did it was going to the nakashima website and eyeballing the photos of the Conoid.
Nice work. Just playing around with sharp stuff. Ha ha
Cuban mahogany though. That’s the real stuff! Hard to find. Your very committed to your craft - it is good to see people use hand tools.
I also need to try that oil you are using. Been so caught up with shellac. I miss miss using danish oil or polymerized tung oil just because how easy it is.
It’s easy but it takes forever to fully cure. The wood was still “sweating” it a bit when I delivered it.
Can I use biscuits?
Actually... yes.
@@CowDogCraftWorks I meant pocket holes.
Also yes... but it would look stupid.
@@CowDogCraftWorks sorry I meant dowels
How are you buying live edge slabs but can't buy a jointer? Cart before the horse my friend. I hope after selling that piece you could get a jointer.
