      Did you miss the parts where he used a table saw and router table, or the circular saw with no vac attached? But I do agree with your sentiment I think. It's nice to see someone blending hand tools and power tools without all the trendy hype stuff. Just whatever's simplest to get the job done well. And the lack of talking excitedly to the camera is refreshing too, but still with the information in subtitles.

    It’s refreshing to watch you work. No wall of clamps worth more than all my tools, same lunch box planer I use. It helps folks like me realize we can make beautiful things with what we have. That a $1000 Festool track saw isn’t needed for these kinds of results.

      Thanks so much Jeff, it's always tempting to save up and try to buy the expensive stuff, but it's important to question if you REALLY need it... IMO you rarely do, it's just more convenient. You can build an awful lot with an awful little if you are patient enough. Thanks for watching!

It's nice to watch someone take the time to work with wood the old fashioned way and turn out such a beautiful table. What you do takes skill and patience. No hurry...you get there when you get there. It's a great life lesson that you obviously take to heart (centering after watching the leg disappear off the table...🙂).

    Magnificent! I’m getting ready to build a small hall table from cherry (my first attempt at using quality lumber) using only hand tools. Your video was a big help in determining how I will go about building it. Thanks!

      That's awesome Pit! Cherry is a great place to start with hardwoods, it's a joy to work with. Good luck with your build!

    Beautiful table. Loved your video. I just made a table top 24x48 with approx 70-90 1/2" oak dowels. Lost count! Lol--- Solid like a tank. I will be doing more projects with just dowels of all colors. No biscuits just dowels. But my table top has an slight cupping after glue up and I'm trying to fix it. It was perfectly flat before glue up.😢

    • @dkbuilds
      @dkbuilds  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks! Sorry to hear about the cupping. Did you use cauls during the glue up like I did? Also if it is cupping upwards (like “U”) you can use the clips that hold it onto the table frame to help keep it flat.

    Everyone has their own "go-to" finish. Like you, my "go-to" is the same Arm-R-Seal Satin. I apply 4 coats with a foam brush, sanding lightly between coats with 320 sand paper. Some brass inlays in the top would make it really "pop"! Awesome build! Love the final product.

      Interesting idea with brass inlays David, I've never worked with them before. Can't go wrong with brass and walnut though! Thanks for the comment

    The timing of your video is amazing. Just picked up some Sapele today to make an almost identical table (size is a little shorter, to be determined later) and was making notes about plans and how to build it. It's my first attempt to building a table. Your video is perfect, even the tools you are using are the same as what I am going to use. Bought your plans and looking forward to building this. Thanks!

    • @dkbuilds

    Nicely done. Your table was almost identical to one I made a few years ago with the only differences being I turned my legs and I used locally grown air dried walnut with one board resawn and book matched for the top. I wanted to mention that you can buy a japanese saw with the teeth set on only one side so when you cut off dowels you won't scratch the wood These saws are called Kugihiki.

    • @dkbuilds
      @dkbuilds  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks Lewis, I appreciate the tips! Your table sounds beautiful, I'd love a bookmatched top. Thanks for sharing the name of the saw, I've known I need a flush cut saw for years but now I know exactly what to look for. Cheers!
