Don't be down on your casters, bro. That's a great table that will likely last you for the rest of your life. Being able to move it and clean the debris out from under the edges of the wood will add years of life to the lower parts and save you a ton of trouble later. I say kudos to you for getting out there and doing it with just your skills and minimal tools.
Thanks for the encouragement. It’s tough building with limited tools. The TH-camrs with the dedicated shop and tools makes it look easy and effortless but this was not the case.
@@ImMakingIt I know ! I always have to improvise to make some of the things I see these guys making in their shops ! But I , like you, always come out with a great finished product that looks good and serves its purpose. And we didn't have to spend $20,000 n a shop to do it !!
As soon as I saw you start to build the legs out of 2×4 and 2×2 I knew that table was going to be HEAVY lol. No matter though. That thing is going to last for decades sheerly due to how solid its construction is. Props, man
Man thank you for making this, it was hard to start a project like this without seeing what to do without all of these expensive tools
Glad I could help!
Pro tip: when you're struggling with the glue drying on you rather than using your hands and pouring it over, try a cheap paint tray and small paint roller ✌
Great tip. This process was very stressful.
When you clipped over to the table at a new angle @9:35 I was SHOOK at how good the table looked after planing.
Casters look just fine. Adds some extra character to a really nice table. Plus it makes it super easy to move! Great video
For someone like me who is just getting started building things, this is so helpful to list your full process and materials! Thank you so much!
Great job. Build things that fulfill their purpose, learn from others who have more experience (usually meaning they’ve made a lot of mistakes), and don’t worry about the rest. Darlington, South Carolina
absolutely love this! very professional and like an earlier commenter said. You will have it for the rest of your life and its something to show off and be proud of! amazing!
Absolutely fantastic. 👍🏻 love that the whole family worked together. 😊 The casters we’re a brilliant idea. 🤔👍🏻
The casters are genius. This table is awesome, thanks for sharing!
I love how "not so confident" you sounded in the beginning and then BOOM! You made one of the best home made tables I've ever seen. Great work. I look forward to more crafts. Will definitely share your page and get more to subscribe. Great stuff man.
Thanks for the encouraging words. These all started out as a documentary for my kids to see when they’re older. It’s been hard to make anything these days because of inflation. Thanks for sharing my video! Too cool!
@@ImMakingIt Yeah inflation is hella crazy right now... can thank Biden for that :D
lol He is just trying to formulate his sentences to convey the message he wants to send. Not all intelligent people can bring their thoughts into speech as well as they would like to. He had a plan in his head and knew how he wanted to execute it.
Love it! Say what you will about pine, fir, spruce or other soft wood. They age well and then, any dings and scratches that are depressing on almost any other woods only adds character to them.
What I like to do instead of hiding screws is to remove them one by one once the glue is set, drill a larger hole and glue in a dowel of contrasting colour. It looks very much on purpose and has never failed me thus far.
Also : connecting the sander to a vacuum will it speeds up the sanding by a lot.
Looks very nice !! I like the finishing touch of how it looks !! 😊
Great job on the table! I love the look. I might try this for a counter top and stagger the boards for a different look!
Excellent video. Thank you very much. I like your easy design and assembly without a lot of fancy tools that you may never use again.
Great Job! I don't think the casters take anything away from the looks and adds so much functionality.
I'm a DIY myself. You did a fantastic job friend!
You have a Dewalt table saw. You got my subscription already. Oh great yard. It's all about the yard.
Very cool table! I might give something like this a try for the patio.
Outstanding! That’s a beautiful piece! Thanks a million for the video.
Love the sawdust tip! And I really love the table base.
I’m doing this technique kinda for my reloading bench. I need to get a plainer for sure. And I must add you did a wonderful job on that table/work bench
I built a monster table using all 4x4 for the base and 2x12 for the top. Your video has given me an idea on how to move the table. You could make a sleeve that has the casters on it. That way you lift each side and slip the sleeves under it. It’s extra stuff to keep around but it doesn’t mess with the aesthetic of the table.
Looks beautiful and very functional. Thank you for sharing
really lovely table and the way you showed everything very inspiring thanks for sharing
Your simple easy to follow instructions were great! I'm making it myself too!!! Thx
Beautifully done table and well-presented video! Thank you for sharing your process. As a thought on your casters, it looks like you could attach them on the interior sides of the legs to make them less visible if you wanted to. Brilliant work, regardless!
Great job bro. Love how the shellac brought out the beauty of the wood.
Thank you for sharing! This turned out to look fantastic!
Beautiful job love the casters makes moving so nice
Great project it came out amazing! Good info in the description too. Keep making videos!
Awesome table. I just bought 2×4's yesterday.
Great job! Love seeing family projects. Don’t be surprised if you see one of those tables on our patio!
Just promise me it’s better then mine!
Great table and the casters are genius.
Hello sir, as they say, woodworkers or builders are their worst critics. I think the movability of the table well outweighs the look of the casters and was a good decision. Nice table.
Great and simple man. Sure there are ways to make it more complicated or intricate. But for about $200 bucks, that's an awesome table people pay $1000s for. Well done!
You did a great job made it look not to bad where others could have confidence . thankful
Great Job..awesome idea with the casters!
Great job brother! I love the design.
Fabulous job. You did a GREAT job
Looks great. Really appreciate the video. I have a 4x8 steel work bench that is a bear to move...thanks for the idea of the castors. I like the height of my table now, and these will keep the height the same. Happy New Year to you and your family.
Nice table! Great build and video work I hope it brings you many years of satisfaction.
Nice patio, good idea to have it double as a workbench
This video is awesome- simple and to the point, and the table rules- I love how the shellac brought out the different shades/patterns in the wood.. Thank you for sharing- subbed!
Great job, paint your casters to blend in with the timber. Maybe even put them on the inside, it will be harder to operate them but you won’t see them as easily.cheers Wiz
That's is awesome. Job well done.
Makes me want to go make one for my porch.
Great work! Love the amber color!

This man knows what he is doing...
I have been in the Furniture Refinishing Business for many years... and it kills me when someone doesn't use TACK CLOTH to wipe it down between EACH Sanding...
Great table. Awesome job.👍
Beautiful!! Very nice and im about to tempy my first build myself.
You did well with the planing. I always seem to plane lines into things I try it with.
Same lol.
That is a WORK OF ART....
BEAUTIFUL
Smooth legs 😁
And the table legs came out well, too
VERY NICE! CASTERS LOOK GOOD.
Great Video, well presented, it turned out awesome, looks absolutely fantastic, well done.
Beautiful table, nice work!
The casters don’t look bad at all! Yea they don’t match or what not but the table shadows that! You did a awesome job!
That’s a great looking laminated table top!
Very Very Nice. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful work!
great job, i was amazed through out
dude, that is kick ass! looks really good.
Wow. Great build. Fun to watch.
So cool! Great video and really helpful. Thanks so much! Nice job. :)
It's beautiful, well done sir!
Good vid!
And excellent table!!!
Thanks!
Nice job, thanks for posting!
Very nice table practical good job indeed
Super nice work , great video .
That's a cool table , great job bro!
Very nice work !! Awesome idea.
Good looking table!
While his wife is on top he glues and screws 😳😳😳 looks great man! Thanks for the video.
Nice work, l made a work bench last year. The glue process is actually quite stressful and a planer and belt sander really helped to finish.
You’re right about the glue process. Off camera I was so frustrated that I rubbed the glue on with my hands and it took about a minute to complete the glue up. Much quicker then a brush but not even coverage
I like your leg assembly. I thought the built up mortise and tenon joint was pretty clever to be honest.
Wow this was great ! and the casters were a good idea
Great build bro .
Very nice table. I'll try to make
Nice finish on it
Nice work man!
I think if you install Caster Wheels on the other side, it won't be that much visible BUT OVERALL you did a marvelous job!!!
Great build!
Cool project!
Good job bud, turned out great!
This is awesome dude!
Great job young fella, to create & build is an art 🍁 72+ wood worker / carverr hobbyist.
thats a great looking table :)
Not to bad. Love the casters.
I like it ….. I’m building me one this weekend ….. great job man .👏🏼👏🏼👍🏻👍🏻
Wood should be cheaper now. Have fun making it.
Thanks for the info… just subscribed and looking forward to more
That’s a nice build ❤
This was great. I'm planning on doing my kitchen table and bed frames this way. Short on tools and wood right now.
I used the barebones minimum tools to build it so hopefully you won’t need more tools then what I’ve used. I see wood prices finally dropped.
Awesome table!!!
awesome build
nice! im about to try this out thanks a ton
Very nice job
Dude this is beautiful!! Great 👍🏽 job
Thanks! Im glad you like it.
Fantastic job!
Thanks I enjoyed this segment. I took your idea one step further and made it my dinning room table with rounded edges. Never done this before and definitely never used a router so my test pile is larger than the table 😅. In the end the table turned out like a pro and my wife let me get a couple more tools. Thank you instructions were spot on. Thanks
I love this table! Are there any dimensions available for the leg? Angles, notch depth and width. I'm new to wood working.
