In spite of the problems that you had, it still looks great project, well worth the effort, it still might be worth doing a voiceover, good luck for the future,
Eh the little snag with the finish wasn’t really a problem. Found out I was probably stopping to soon in my sanding grits. OSMO like a really smooth surface to even out on unlike Rubio
You do a good job to explain what you are doing, and not always knowing if it will work, but your honest , and I appreciate your openness
That’s awesome to know! I appreciate you for following along
Super nice, looks way to luxurious for my space 😆
Nah nothing I make is that way. I build stuff that I (hope) is affordable and looks good with a space
I would skip the no talking part. With voice over is much more entertaining. Good work though!
Good to know and thanks for the feedback!
100% agree
Beautiful desk! Great job. Keep talking
Thanks for the feedback!
Nice table! U should really think about using respirator while sanding especially with the epoxy
The dust collection gets a solid 90% of it, but I appreciate the concern
Very nice work! Have you seen the finishing course and n3 nano coat that blacktail studio makes? I love how the n3 nano finished a slab. Looking forward to your next video!
I have, but I have to kinda pick where I spend my money. At $200 it’s hard to justify it when I like working with more expensive wood. I am working on a project now where I use the black diamond ceramic so we will see if it’s comparable
Looks great, please dont take this a a conplaint, but I do miss the narration. It brings your personality to the channel. Great job on the desk. Enjoyed it either way.
I totally appreciate the feedback! I like watching both styles with narration and shop sounds, just getting a feel for how I should proceed. Guess if it’s an uneventful project I either don’t film it or I improv the hell out of it
@lonestarwoodworking3810 hell maybe do both. I've seen a few guys with a separate channel. They just upload the video without a voice-over and the other with voice-over. Either way it's quality content. I tip my hat to you for making this content for people to enjoy.
I’d prefer narration. I’m a consummate learner. If I can glean even just a tidbit of info from someone else, I’ll take it lol. TH-cam is one of my learning resources, so I usually click off of videos with no talking because of it. I obviously didn’t this time lol, but you’ve been a pretty good source of info for me in the past, so I let it slide. 😜😂
That seems to be the general consensus, which is flattering. So from now on it’ll be all narration
Nice job as always dude! I've tried Osmo twice and could never get it right so I'm back to Rubio no matter what
The thing is I did get it right with the poplar rootball table top. That finish was damn perfect. But this time it just wasn’t happening for me
That hight adjustment mechanizm is not the best. You have just 1 motor for the whole assembly, i assume the wood+epxy weighs a little bit, a 2 motor version would be safer with this setup. I build mine myself, i used plain oak without epoxy and that works like a charm.
I gotcha, but the top really isn’t that heavy despite its size. And the motor seems to run with no issues. But I’ll keep that in mind for any future sit/stand furniture
Look fantastic! I prefer commentary, personally. Keep the content coming, sir..... but throw that Osmo in the damn trash LOL. Looks good, but it's brutal. Even talked to their rep up here in Canada, and the method and coats required for any kind of protection is god-awful.
Ha I’m not the biggest fan of OSMO either but I chose it for the color. And knowing my wife she won’t be beating this thing to hell so I took the risk
@@lonestarwoodworking3810 What happens should the desk get "Christened", though? Explain that one to the Osmo rep hahahaha just buggin'.
Hey man, i have the same problem as yours with the finish. I tried osmo 3031 that didn’t worked good on epoxy , now im trying osmo 3043 and it seems it’s not working too. Do you think that rubio will cover all the marks and the uneven spots on epoxy? Did rubio solved ur problem?
Depending on how many layers you did, I would build up a few more, sand off the high spots and then use Rubio. And yes it did solve the issue as Rubio doesn’t tack up for quite some time
All the plastic in the middle really isn't for me. I know that especially with a burl, you kind of almost have to though.
With that mildly negative thought out of the way, I think the wood turned out spectacularly and you did a great job with the build.
I actually don’t like it that much either. Was just one of those things that seemed like a good idea at the time but I hate the typical “river” style
@@lonestarwoodworking3810 well, for not liking it, you certainly nailed the assignment. Fantastic work. You're very talented. You didn't need me to tell you that, but I'm telling you anyway.
@@winkletsdad and I appreciate it all the same
K, since no one seems to wanna say it..can we say “Cam from Blacktail Studio’s!?” I know we all replicate other people’s work but at least give the guy a shout out or somethin….
I think it would confuse the audience if I opened with that
That's right. Anytime a person uses brass, walnut, and black epoxy they must shout out Cam from Blacktail Studios. As he's the only one doing that...Lmao. Come on man, I really don't think that's necessary. It's 2024 and there are plenty of woodworkers using that combination. Let the guy make his desk.
Bring back the talking
Yall must really like what I have to say or hate the sound of tools 😂😂 either way I appreciate the feedback and won’t be doing any more no talking videos
no talking no bueno
😂 noted
Prefer no talking😊
Gotcha, thank you for the feedback
