Remarkable how beautiful the table turned out especially given how quickly it was made, the benefit of having someone greatly skilled in the art. Thanks for sharing!
They make a dust collection port for the old delta planers. That was my first planer and I bought one because I was tired of all the cleanup every time I used it. It worked flawlessly.
The was dead simple. Great job Jimmy. Always cool watching your process and seeing why you do something a particular way. The pre-made legs makes this a really simple project.
Jimmy, you remind me of Norm Abram every time I watch. Showing people that they can make beautiful things with the tools they have and don't have to spend a fortune on a shop. Making woodworking common sense. Thank you!
Yeah I think the first internet we had was in about 95 or so with the 14.4k modem. No video streaming on that. I was stoked to have downloaded a picture and print it. haha... people were using those old bulletin board systems though too just before my time.
I loved that special hometime did when they built a log cabin from beginning to end, had that bad boy on vhs and man did I love it lol. The toh, hometime and yankee workshop was the other half of my powerblock weekend routine with the horsepower tv and Trucks with Stacey David shows. Good times.
Jimmy just doing what he does best. He MAKES things. He doesn't waste time on things that don't matter. Beautiful table top, with an adequate base. Perfect.
Jimmy’s a maverick and I’ve learned a lot of tricks from following him these last few years. Great combination of Jimmy and TOH! 👍👍 I’m going to try and expand one of the holes for a “floating tenon” from my doweling jig on my next table top.
Wow, that is way faster than my last table build, and looks very nice. I appreciate Jimmy's no nonsense approach! I do think it is probably easier to put straight reference board alongside the board you are working on, and run it against the fence to use the table saw as a jointer, rather than the repeated pass approach he showed.
Live edge cutoffs could be used on smaller side tables, raised live edges ( raised an inch or 2) for side/serving table can be used for many purposes, drinks , appetizers, cards/poker , reading, stationary hobbies.. and you have options for only having raised live edges on 1,2,3 sides leaving some flat and open depending on your taste and function
Very quick beautiful looking table. I suppose one could do dowel joinery if one doesn't have a Domino like myself. Question I do have though is if there would be any concern about the wood joinery actually splitting if the top is fixed on all sides by the pocket screw connections that won't allow for usual wood expansion/contraction?
Fantastic video and a great partnership as always with ATOH and Jimmy! I'm going to be building my first table soon and now I've got a great and easy process to follow that I know will work! Keep these videos coming!!
I would love to see Jimmy DiResta do a new version of the New Yankee Workshop. He's definitely a Normite (he loves all tools) , and it would be so cool to see what he would come up with every week. It would be a great way to extend the This Old House brand, and fill that big gap left by Norm's retirement from his show.
I like Jimmy but he normally uses a bandsaw for everything in the most nail biting way possible. As someone who has lost a finger in a bandsaw, I wish he would be more careful.
The top will probably contract and expand over the seasons. When attaching the top to the base (apron) I would have used clips to allow the top to move and prevent it from splitting.
Excellent fast build, only thing is I would not have used pocket hole screws to hold top to base. No allowance for natural movement especially if sitting on a porch.
I've been jointing boards on the table saw for 30 years, even tho I do have an 8" jointer. Just depends on what mood I'm in that day as to which way I do it. Don't need a $1000 festool to keep my boards lined up, that's what a $20 bar clamp and cauls are for.
@@Balegedoo Yeah I have a feeling he mentioned using the Beadlock jig for the other table and it got cut because it's a specific brand. Seems the same happened to him mentioning tablelegs.com too since you just hear Jimmy randomly refer to a 'they'. Either the editor made the decision or TOH didn't want to bother with asking for permission/couldn't get a hold of a rep for the brands.
I guess you could get a doweling jig and do it that way. But seriously, if you have $950 to drop on a single tool and you choose a Domino over a jointer, you need to get your priorities back in order.
Jimmy is such a humble guy who has some great projects. I think This Old House could learn a lesson or 2 from his format of videos and engagement because the tend to act like a corporation at times
The only thing I would have changed is the means of attaching the table top to the stretchers. The pocket screws dont allow for the seasonal expansion and contraction of the top. I learned that from Norm. :)
Apparently, this "seasonal expansion" isn't the concern it once was. Many woodworkers on vlogs have determined that this is not a big deal anymore because so much furniture being made these days finds itself in HVAC system houses that keep the year round humidity at constant levels. I have made 3 white oak shaker tables with tops attached with pocket screws and have found absolutely NO adverse affects.
@@donwhitehead4587 I have building furniture for 25 years. My own dining table moves 1/4 to 5/16 during the year. Because I allowed for it my mortise and tenon are unaffected. Build as you like but I feel it's small effort to build for long term longevity. Pocket screws have their place. Not for attaching table tops imo.
grizdeluxe, I got you by 5 years! 30 yrs building furniture here. All I can say is old habits die hard. No one does this apply to more than me. Any further debate would prove counterproductive. Build on Mr Griz👍🏻
Kevin you have a wealth of knowledge at the tip of your tongue but I love how you hold back and ask questions. Man I want to be just like you.
This old house AND Diresta????? In heaven
Love you Jimmy!!!
T.O.H the best 30 min since I was in high school. Have learned so much from Tommy, Richard, Roger and Norm. Thanks guys. You 🤘
DiResta is the best in the world for long time ago ,every time worked so good....
2 of my favorite TH-cam channels packed into one. Amazing to see that you guys are keeping up with Jimmy!!
How do we get Jimmy on every episode?
Ask for him during the next telethon?
Offer him a line of coke.
Jimmy should just start his own show TV show and post all the episodes on TH-cam for free.
@@Avrohomperl Nice dream! He has already had a few show. Production costs. I love his YT channel though.
Amen
I have been jointing my lumber like that for ever and it works great. A good blade and a good true table saw make super slick straight edges.
DUDEEE... I had no idea on the jointing of the boards on the table saw!!! MIND BLOWN!!! Awesome Job Jimmy and TOH!!!!!
Thumbs up just because of Jimmy Diresta!!!
That planer just screams reliability and even the shavings it makes are really satisfying to see!
Table saw jointer....that's AWESOME!!
As much Jimmie as you can!!!!! MORE DIRESTA!!!!
I love how natural Jimmy is in front of the camera...the video flowed very well
Remarkable how beautiful the table turned out especially given how quickly it was made, the benefit of having someone greatly skilled in the art. Thanks for sharing!
I only mentioned 'This Old House' on Jimmy's last video! Small world. I think TH-cam suggested this because I follow Jimmy. :) Glad it did.
This Old House and Jimmy DiResta......I couldn't be happier......
yay Jimmy your the man keep Jimmy coming back he's the greatest
Cool to see jimmy back.
Jimmy: "We have legs that I found from the garbage"
Kevin: "It sounds like you
He does have garbage legs.
"...on the streets of New York."

its great to feature simple projects like this - great way to give someone the confidence that they can build a piece of furniture
I ALWAYS learn a trick watching Jimmy!

Umm that Festool domino joiner he used is over $1000 by itself!
Nice to see the more mainstream big shows recognize some of the brilliant makers who are out there. Nice work TOH!!!
How long has This old house been going for? I remember watching as a kid like 25 years ago along with Yankee workshop and Hometime.
ahh, the good old days. and _hometime_ with joanne liebler 😍
before internet
Yeah I think the first internet we had was in about 95 or so with the 14.4k modem. No video streaming on that. I was stoked to have downloaded a picture and print it. haha... people were using those old bulletin board systems though too just before my time.

I believe this is the 40th season.
Love the Jimmy build it segments! - Jim

DiResta is the man!
We NEED more episodes with Jimmy Diresta!!
Jimmy is a legend
I've actually met the maker before it was very exciting. I'm a big fan of TH-cam makers and I love meeting them.
Jimmy’s a maverick and I’ve learned a lot of tricks from following him these last few years. Great combination of Jimmy and TOH! 👍👍 I’m going to try and expand one of the holes for a “floating tenon” from my doweling jig on my next table top.
Never mind, I just thought about how expanding a drilled hole will defeat the purpose of lining up the boards vertically! 🤦♂️
Another great build. Thanks for sharing and having Jimmy on the show!
Great project with someone that knows what theyre doing
Jimmy is the best.
Love Jimmy!! Keep bringing him on your great show!

Always interested in a video that includes Jimmy Diresta. As a ATOH fan and a Diresta Fan this video was a bonus!

Jimmy on ATOH is the best! It’s like Avengers - all the super heroes together on the same show. Awesome job, guys! 👍🏼
Great to see Jimmy on This Old House! Cool!
Hey! Awesome to see DiResta on!
Love my trade, i enjoy watching & learning from guys in my generation.
Always nice to see The Great Jimmy R. with His Excellent skills. I don't know who his team Partner is, But I think, it is Kevin. O.
Super! It’s not always about the tools. Great project. Thank you
came out AWESOME!!!! love watching diresta work!!
Jimmy is the man!
Enjoyed that! And great tip for flipping it over and over on the tablesaw.
Always good to see either Jimmy or ATOH, but together, even better, a real all star team.

JIMMY DIRESTA STRIKES AGAIN 👏🏼 .....

Thanks

WHAT'S YOUR 👈🏼 GOOFY A$$
DOING HERE ON MY POST.
SAYING THANKS FOR 🤔 ??? .......
Jimmy is awesome so great to see him back this season!!!! Hope he continues to be a featured maker!!!!
This is so awesome that you're collaborating with TH-camrs I look forward to seeing more!
And as always, way to go Jimmy!! Love the episode, and keeps the explanations very straightforward.
Had that planer as long as I been around. Sweet!
I saw jimmy diresta and clicked play. That easy.
We love Jimmy a-lot-a-bit
We need more videos with jimmy
Two of my favorite channels come together! Looks great Jimmy
I love it when Ask TOH and DiResta work together.
Great collaboration again, guys!
Cool to seeing you together. 👋🏼🇨🇦👋🏼
Fantastic video and a great partnership as always with ATOH and Jimmy! I'm going to be building my first table soon and now I've got a great and easy process to follow that I know will work! Keep these videos coming!!
I see a lot of comments about the domino. You can use your table saw to cut centered grooves on the edges and make splines to fit using your cut offs.
Looks awesome, needs to be in my kitchen! I've done that table saw jointing trick before and it works great.
Bwa ha ha. Chris! That’s one bold sticker placement. 👊🏼🔥👊🏼
Father of youtube woodworking right there
I always watch Jimmy's videos.

Amazing - the guard is still on the table saw!
More Jimmy!! Thanks Guys!
Classic Diresta. 🤘
Excellent fast build, only thing is I would not have used pocket hole screws to hold top to base. No allowance for natural movement especially if sitting on a porch.
Totally agree. Those boards are really going to have movement.

Great collaboration. Best wishes from Yorkshire, England.
Amazing as usual!!!
I see Jimmy, I thumbs up and share. Great to see the collab. More please.
You are a force Jimmy
Love to see how you made the table table that sits outside
Can we get Jimmy into more episodes? I look forward to these every year.
Jimmy is just to cool.
Diresta and those disposable brushes all the time. Drives me nuts
What website did you get the legs and apron from...so much easier than making them yourself, they look great
Jimmy D is the man!!!
More Jimmy please!!
Beautiful table! Love the results!
Serious question. Why do the table saw trick first and the surface planing second and not the other way around?
Finally Jimmy alotobit Diresta
More Jimmy Diresta!
"Here's how to do it if you don't have a jointer."
*pulls out Festool domino...*
Here's practically the same table without the domino. th-cam.com/video/TriES7LY7WI/w-d-xo.html
@@Balegedoo Yeah I have a feeling he mentioned using the Beadlock jig for the other table and it got cut because it's a specific brand.

I guess you could get a doweling jig and do it that way. But seriously, if you have $950 to drop on a single tool and you choose a Domino over a jointer, you need to get your priorities back in order.
@@Whamola there are plenty of jointers that do the same exact thing for $200. Check out porter cables version. Same exact thing but not 950. :)
The domino is a yuuuuge game changer. If you are gonna be building things regularly spend the money. Nothing else comes close to that machine!
I would have had to try to use the live edge on that one beautiful piece.
Follow Jimmy Diresta on TH-cam too... ATOH and Jimmy Diresta... great combination!
John Laury yep...seems natural.
Awesome project, Great information👍🏻

Tommy used those double washers. That seems better but I'm not a carpenter.
The Izzy Swan skirt washers from Fastcap.com work great.
