Art lies in concealing Art... you make it look simple...Great job brother

Please don't- it makes you sound very unnatural to the point of being difficult to listen to

Nice and very original table, and especially very amusing comments to accompany us along what is already a most enjoyable journey. BUT ... Just a little observation here. I truly think you should have maybe made the joints a bit tighter- with a view to gluing them together first. I'm afraid I find your "epoxied" joints are just a bit too visible. So: Firstly; glue up the jigsaw pieces, having knocked up a glue mixture that would blend into the background wood. Clean up. Only then do you proceed with the coloured epoxy process. I honestly find that the all-too-visible joints detract from the finished effect. Please don't take offense. I'm a seasoned woodworker (41 years experience), and I like to try to give pointers- if and when they are called for. Nice project (I'm sure Ikea won't give you any hassle- they have bigger fish to fry). That spalted Beech is absolutely stunning; it's a bit of mixture between the vegetation and the mineral. Greetings from France.

Spalting fire

Beautiful work my man. Don’t worry about critics or people unsubscribing. A fair amount of your comments were aimed at these imagined! critics and it’s unnecessary in my (critical) 😊 opinion. I have maybe 20 subscriptions to a variety of wood workers at various stages of skill. They all teach me something or just inspire me. Usually great editing, clear and close up video with good process description, financial breakdowns are sometimes nice since everyone has a budget. Of course humor and personal connection work in your favor. I’ve seen content creators use critiques from previous videos as teachable moments for additional content or humorous trash talk aka-shut up you’re annoying, please go away. Some content creators pick enemies: pit bull owners, mushroom hunters, Trump haters, jeep owners…add small close knit community of true believers here. Keep working it you’re doing multiple things right, you got the algorithm to reach me.

Thats amazing, i love the jigsaw technique, really cool 👏💯

It is so beautiful

Drying "thin cookies" is not easy. It needs to be done as slow as possible. Get the moisture to equilibrium and then put in the kiln. It's also very species dependent. Some woods Crack way easier than others. Conifers should be fairly easy to dry this way but I think you may have done it too quick. Just my two cents. Thanks for the video

You Sir , are very talented.

Also as a metal worker "What a hole" you should be impressed, you got lucky. last time i did that... I'll just say the reason I'm watching this is because I'm confined to the hospital and had to say goodbye to having children.

as a knife maker it is rather interesting to watch someone else's work that has some similarity yet still completely different. I wonder if the epoxy/fragmented wood would work with making knife handles. how strong is the table?

The first thing I thought was a giant Sequoia.

Impossible ? Why?

You didn't tell us what your wife thought of your efforts and final result?

For the measure system, the majority of the world use the metric system and so does the scientific community so it should be the only system.

Jupiter ?

A woodworker started a project using wonderfully colored olive fitting carefully odded shaped pieces.BUT at some point lost his way and became awoodbutcher....It is a commen tradigdy brought on by the over usesof epoxy....a very sad tale

Beautiful table, I think IKEA or another shop would love buy the tables off of you.

if you are wearing headphones, hoe the heck do you make it so your talking only into my left ear. like hoe does that even happen lol.

Wtf this? I don't get it. Nice wood and enjoyable narration though 👍

Wonderful work but your commentary sounds like you are reading from a script .

Exquisite table…beautiful😍

omg only left speaker talks... bye.

너무 멋진 테이블이네요 ^^

It looks like a huge slice of some exotic fruit. 😃. Until you squared it up.

A very interesting project, and the result is quite nice. I must say, however, that I find it rather odd that the grain pattern is running diagonally across the ellipse; I'm so much more used to see the grain parallel to the long axis. But then, for some people will find that oddity exactly what attracts them to your design. By the way, chainsaws aren't used more in traditional woodworking because they aren't traditional, at least not for me. I think that traditional woodworking implies no technology newer than that which was common 150 years ago. By that standard nothing you did in this video is traditional, but that's perfectly OK. You turned out a fine table.

@marmotaworks We do have the inchometer, it is called the metric system. Only the US is using the imperial system, which is weird since you foight a war to get rid of the imperials... Anyway, the inch is defined as 25.4mm. Meaning there is only the metric system.

Spalted maple or birch? I made a lot of tables. The coolest? A glass top Foosball Table. Loser buys breakfast!🤠

This is the first video from your channel. The wood is absolutely beautiful and you did a wonderful job . Your wife will treasure this table for years to come.

Nossa como é lindo os trabalhos do vocês parabéns 💕

I subscribed because I first like the things you build, second because of the materials you use . I also think your funny!😅

Should have got a Herman Miller.

Hemlock..?

👍👍👍

Why do you need to remove bark???

Good job buddy from the UK

The chai ad is very dishonest. Downvoted the video for that. I dislike when someone treats me like I was dumb.

It’s simply magnificent. I would have loved it if it were bigger.

wellll the inchometer sounds like a tool to measure the lenght of your dick :)

Redwood sequoia or cedar

wax and mineral oil help with the crackscoat the end grains with it on both sides

Just awesome! I wish no epox used !

Beautiful work of art. But I have one question: why did you leave the wood voids empty when you could have matched the grain and worked your magic so that while the complete void wouldn't be filled, it would ensure the large areas of epoxy in your final table didn't drag the eye away from the excellent design of your finished table? As it is, I'd give this table a pass simply because the black epoxy filled voids are a total distraction from the beauty of wood.

Yes, it's an epoxy table, but my question is: if you went to all the trouble of lining up different types of wood so the surface look like all boards are in tune and then not do the same for the big empty parts that end up being filled with epoxy? I'm not suggesting the whole wood void has to be filled with wood, but just enough so that the use of the size of the epoxy doesn't drag the eye to them instead of the beauty of the table you'll created.

Hi, i am new to woodworking and i want to try to use some epoxy resin to fill up some knots, gaps and small cracks for some wallnut chopping boards i am making, what type of resin will you reccomend me use?

I'm really not been a flat earther , however I do have another theory.its based on evidence I've collected over the past 4 decades. It may give you the answer to the question you've raised in this episode. If your truly looking for something to mull over In reference to that? You posed . I was watching because I to like working with wood. And I've pickup some good , useful information watching your channel. Aloha 🤙🏼

This is an absolutely gorgeous table! I only like pure wood furniture! I hate the wood-dust boards and particle boards! Really this is stunning!

looks like eucalyptus

I see loaves of bread more than bubbles. Butter tops.
