If supply chain issues are making you crazy...meet your deadlines
by making your own transitional island columns.
This video doesn't miss a step in the construction details.
I even include some tips and tricks that you will find helpful!

I am a follower of the great Norm Abrams, but it is always hard to reproduce his work without his workshop and tools. You make it work with the basics. Bravo!
You cant believe how nice it is to see a real production shop/carpenter do real world work with actual industry techniques. No over use of a felled tree in their back yard and a home made bandsaw and jointer. None of this made-for-youtube carpenters and carpentry. This is how we have been building houses for generations. Keep up the great work and great videos, they are appreciated, even if the algorithm doesnt promote them and you dont get the subscribers like some of the other channels. I notice you are using a left tilt saw, how would you make those mitered rips on a right tilt saw?
Hi... thanks for the nice compliment and following our channel. Here is the trick to a right tilt saw: move your fence over to the other side of your blade. Word of caution...this will create an awkward situation that might feel uncomfortable. Just be sure to be as safe as possible and pay close attention to where you place your hand and feet for stability. Good luck...Wes
You mean no rack of woodpeckers tools displayed in background? lol
Really nice...I am going to make something similar for my counters and cabinets that I'm also making. It's awesome to see end results when you create with your own hands
I just found your channel 2 days ago, and after watching 2 videos, I subbed; and I'm glad I did. I'm making a hutch for my wife for Christmas, and this definitely helps with tips for the build. Thank you for making these videos of your beautiful work.
Just stumbled upon this show, likely by way of an algorithm and I'm so glad I did - good stuff!
Thank you thank you!
Welcome aboard....thanks for your comment, glad you enjoyed the video. Wes
Vraiment fabuleux ! J’ai appris des choses qui me seront très utiles !! Merci Wes !! 👍👍Pascal 🇫🇷
Thank you Wes. I love your work and clear explanation.
Hi Wess. this was very well presented. I loved how you did it. I am tempted to copy your work. If I can !
Hi...glad you enjoyed the video. Of course, give it a try, I am sure you will do great! Wes
Good morning Wes… You make it all look so easy, with your expertise.
Thank you so very much Patrick!!! Glad you are still watching 😀 Wes
I always learn something new from your videos. Thanks Wes.
Glad to hear it...thanks for being part of our community. Thanks, Wes
Wes, I appreciate how you work, explain, and give great ideas. Most of the other channels start that way then just try to hawk products. Ps. I made my boys golden oak bedroom set a nice gray with black glaze and he loves it. Thanks!!!
Thank you so very much...glad the bedroom set was a win!! Take care, Wes
Very nice and I did not know you could cross cutt on a table saw to make it round like that very impressive ty!
So awesome to see how these are made! Going to try making columns soon. Love the way you explain as you work, you'd make a great woodshop teacher for adults. I'd go to your classes if I was in your area.
Thank you so very much!! I sincerely appreciate the comment, that's what keeps me going!! 😀 Wes
Thanks for the information 👍 you do great work.
Great job!!
💕 Beautiful work. Thank you so much for sharing this. 💕
My pleasure 😊 thank you for visiting the channel. Wes
What you have done is simply awesome!
Wow, thank you...I sincerely appreciate the comment. Wes
Great looking columns Wes I really enjoyed seeing how you made them great techniques and another great video, thanks 🙏 👌👌👌👌👌👌
Glad you enjoyed it...thanks John. Hope all is well with you! Happy New Year.
Looking really good! Fantastic video showing all the process and detail. I enjoy your videos a lot, thanks Wes!
Furthermore, I really liked when you took your time to explain why you didn´t use a stick to cut those small pieces in the saw. First thing I thought when I saw you put your fingers in there. Safety first 👍👍👍
Thanks for your comment...glad you enjoyed the video! Wes
wes, you need some spring clamps-----great video-----always enjoy your work and presentation----thanx
Working on it! Thanks for your comment. Wes
Very nice work Wes
Thank you kindly...glad you enjoyed the video. Wes
greate job!!!! best regards
Many thanks...I appreciate the visit. Wes
Nice-looking posts. My long-term worry as the owner of those would be how well the corners of the plywood hold up to everyday wear and tear.
Beautiful work brother!!! What kind of solid lumber did you use?
Great as usual, Wes, and thanks again for taking the time to make these videos. Question: is there any magic to getting super precise miters like you’re able to achieve? Are you set at 45 degrees? I ask because I feel like I’ve tried everything to tune, adjust, whatever… and I don’t get tight miters. Thanks!
Hi...I always insure that I have perfect miters by putting 2 of them together and checking them with a square on the inside. Hope this helps...thanks for your comment and support. Wes
Ole Wes breaking out the HF clamps lol
Those clamps are genuinely awesome even at double their price.
Hey there Jeff...for the price these small clamps are the best 😀
@@WoodworkingWithWes agreed! I have a bunch of them myself!!
Great to watch and learn from as always. Is there a specific tooth count on the blade recommended when running table saw cove?
Hi...I use a 40 tooth rip blade while making this cove. It works very well. Thanks, Wes
Hi Wes, just found your channel. I grew up building cabinets and it is awesome to learn new simple tricks. I do have one question for you. What router bit did you use for the small bead portion of the column?
Hi...I used a 1/4" bead bit available on Amazon. Thanks for watching, Wes
Wes I'm a subscriber. great video man!...really nice techniques all around but especially making that scoop on the table saw impressed me. Regarding working safely on the table saw - I tend to wrap my pinky finger on my right hand over my fence...almost like a "lock" to prevent my other fingers going toward the saw blade (on my smaller/ benchtop saw). I'm only mentioning this as it might be helpful to others . One other thing, there's another pretty amazing TH-cam finish carpenter (whose name I won't mention here) who advises setting the bevel at 45.5 degrees for making the bevel posts, claims it pulls the miter in tighter. any thoughts on this? Thanks for the excellent content
Hi Joseph...setting the saw at a 45+ is a way to create tighter corners. However, it does have one drawback; if not clamped with equal pressure on all sides, you can cause your post to be out of square which could create even more problems as you continue with the build up. Thanks for your comment and being part of our community. I appreciate the support. Wes
was that a large edge bander I spotted?
Gave us the length of the base pieces but not the width
The center column is 4 1/2 x 4 1/2...the applied base pieces are 3/4" thick resulting in a 6x6 finished base measurement. Thanks for watching, Wes
So sad to see someone with so many years of experience forgoing ALL safety equipment and technique...I pray you don't lose a hand and or get someone else injured who imitates your 100% unsafe techniques!
