      Instead of "ocean" or "sea" burst you could try a honeyburst table - it would be interesting to put something in a similar palette against the walnut too, it's exceptional walnut and even if the solid or burst blue can't beat it maybe a "honey" or "tea" burst could.

      I never leave comments but this one hit home a bit. There's something to be said for versatility and proving a point. I commend that fully. But to a person who thinks that finding the artistic capacity of the wood and creating something beautiful with it is art in itself. Wood carving or whatever other form of raw talent you "dont" have is not overshadowed by being able to take Walnut and create something worth what you ask for it. What's more, to say that Wood must be colorful to be good is laughable, that's what metal is for. Woodwork is to showcase the wood, hence the reason most carpenters use coatings that don't alter it's color. The beauty is in the material and the ability to shape that material not the carcinogens you cover it with.

      Yeah i think the blue one is super cool but I start think if I had that table where would I put it and I came to the conclusion it’s just way too much table like I would have to theme a whole room around that table to the point the room would be around the table rather than the table in the room and I just ain’t got the sauce for all that

    • @RePorpoised
      @RePorpoised 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +33

      I wonder how much the colour impacted things. A bright blue colour will have trouble selling, as a lower number of bidders will lower the ending bids.
      Most commonly wanted colours are neutral colours: the usual white, grey an black, along with darker tones of blue, turquoise and green. Blacktail Studio added colour and did great work with that and the work as a whole, but the choice of colour itself is a vital step he didn't linger on long enough. I don't know if that would have bumped up the price or not...

      Respectfully, I don’t have the $997 for the course. I’m trying to create a woodworking business out of my garage and I haven’t even got the money to put my heating on this winter. Can you advise those of us who are struggling on how to move forward? The main issue I’ve found is finding a platform that actually works for the little guys. EBay and Etsy have been a non starter. My work is high quality yet all I seem to get is totally ridiculous offers that aren’t even 10% of materials costs.

    I feel like an intruder posting here, but I really enjoy watching these videos. At 85, I don't have the stamina, the skill, or the room in my garage to undertake anything at all in the woodworking world. I did take woodworking in my Texas high school under a terrific teacher and got an appreciation for the products of our work and imagination. Then, later, as a high school math teacher, I could appreciate the skill of the teachers and what their students produced. I spend a couple of hours or more each day watching, and really enjoy your comments, your trial-and-error methods and always the finished product. Don't worry about the trolls - they're everywhere!

    Surprisingly, I think the blue table will sell for more. If you do another colored table, guitar makers often start with a black or charcoal stain first to get the grain patterns to really "pop", then sand it back and use the actual color such as blue, purple, etc.

    The turquoise fade was an awesome choice. It helps bring out the pattern in the wood, and when you're working with an organic product, you should always try to take advantage of the natural art that's already in the wood.

    Brown. Hands down. The reason walnut/wood pieces will always sell for more is they are able to fit a wider array of décor styles and color pallets. Bright blue like in the video is niche. At best. And, much easier to come by for affordable prices at major retailers. You can't get hardwood tables, let alone ones with resin inlays and pours, at Walmart or Lowe's.
    That said, I think both pieces turned out beautifully and you really elevated the results with those amazing finishes.

    Blue. Brown. Both 😊. That blue table is fabulous. You talked about a self-selecting sample in a previous video, & I think that is bound to apply here. Talk of painting wood is practically blasphemy to woodworkers. But artists and designers appreciate colour for its own sake, too. I’d much rather own a stunning blue table crafted out of wood than a table of the exact same colour made of acrylic (?) or particle board on some production line somewhere.

  • @olivialambert4124
    @olivialambert4124 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    The underbase texture looks great. I'd love a table with that texture all over (obviously plain flat top). As for the colours, the blue does look really nice. Key problem is that many colour schemes won't work with the blue whereas the walnut works with most. So even though it looks just as good you've reduced your customer base fighting over it at auction. Different coloured woods might look great too, but again walnut likely has the largest customer base which will offset the fact that other woods might look nicer for some customers. That quilted maple in a wood colour would likely be my favourite given the right room colour scheme, though the blue turned out fantastic too.

    Blue just might be the one to finish in front because of the novelty of it for you. I think they are both stunning to look at & so my final choice, for me personally, I wood go with the Walnut. It is a 'warm' wood with many colour variations that show up remarkably well with the finishes you use. Cheers, Don from South Australia.

You figured out what it takes to generate millions of views - creativity, genuineness (and yes, you talking adds so much personality and interest in these videos), humor, and just all the beautiful and detailed work in general. I think I'm part of the many, but these videos are always something I look forward to (to watch between work breaks or sleep). Just wanted to share that!
    Also, if you do any future charity videos, would you be open to the Dravet Syndrom Foundation? One of my closest friends just found out his 11-month old daughter has Dravet syndrome. It has no cure, and 20% of children don't make it to adulthood. Since it impacts such a small minority of children, it doesn't get the attention it needs. Just wanted to throw it out there, and appreciate what you're doing for the Make a Wish foundation! All the best, Anthony.

I like the texture you put on the bottom of both tables, if you were the make a table top with that texture and dye it blue, it would resemble water a lot i think. Ofcourse you would have to fill it with resin to make it flat. A lot of creativity is possible i think. Greetings from the Netherlands! Love your videos

    Blue might actually win, considering how unique it is, and the fact that it's all for charity.

The way the grain kind of...wobbles? If that makes sense? makes it look like a still image from above of shallow water along a beach. Truly a wonderful bluejob (: 💙

    Brown. Try a multi colored piece. Some a little less out of the box and a little more stander but still different. Say a black, green and white. just so that it stands out but not a single colored piece that would stand out like a sore thumb. Maybe a good idea would be to try a few color palettes on some small offcuts. You could do a lot with even two colors.
