Asking as a content creator - who provided the music? The link in the description goes nowhere as of Oct2021. Also, love your work, found you because of 731 Woodworking.

[@MakinSawdust]

*_He said my name!!! :)_* Thanks for the mention Sam!! the apron rocks and it is getting used! I am glad that you could put to use the casters and I cant wait to see your new toy!!

[@jorge242]

I like the angled legs idea as opposed to 2x4 or 4x4s.I saw a guy make a quick work table like that and it was surprisingly sturdy. And maybe lighter in weight.

[@nirion]

You have convinced me to buy a Shapeoko, I was literally about to message you and ask if you had plans for your table but just found this video. Thanks 10000x. Your videos are awesome!

[@Samcraftcom]

That is awesome! I've been 100% happy with my Shapeoko and wish I had more time and material to run it more. Happy this video was helpful too! I have other videos where I add a drawer unit (great upgrade for my needs) to it as well. It's all included in the plans too. :)

[@mlm7598]

Awesome job Sam! Love that table and loved the switcheroooo for the foot shot! Love that pattern and sturdy way you have done this table. I can't wait to see your new toy! It is going to be one handy tool for the crafts that you do so very well. I like that it could also be used for a nice cutting table and storage for sewing projects. adjusting the height perhaps to lessen bending over but thinking it could be an awesome addition for many crafters and their storage needs. Awesome build, and again, I can't wait to see what you do with it. Kudos, job well done! Blessings

[@Samcraftcom]

Good points! Would make a nice sewing table I bet. Thanks Mary Lou!! I have a few things lined up to make on it already, too.

[@zapa1pnt]

Mary Lou, what is also nice is you don't Really need a table saw, to do it. It can all be done with a circular saw and a straight edge.

[@mlm7598]

Really great build. 2 Sheets of plywood and No squaring of 4x4 or laminated 2x4 posts. It is, Surely, as solid as needed.

[@rednoize4391]

excellent video, thank you.... I am ordering the Shapeoko Pro CnC 4x4 router next month and was looking for a budget build for a table, thanks again excellent video.... your commentary is awesome (no fluff or repeadidly saying "um") .... My only question here is how to you clean your silicon glue brush?

[@ceedub6233]

Pretty clever moving the caster ffg or visual effects. Great looking cabin. I'm building a potting table for my wife. I like the thought of making the frame out of marine grade plywood. Instead of the usual 2x4 frame. This video has given me some good ideas Thanks for sharing. Blessings to you and your family

[@zapa1pnt]

Ceedub: Yes, this is a great design And, as I told someone else, you don't, Really, need a Table saw, to do it. All you need is a circular saw and a straight edge.

[@kenderwolf]

I like it. Wondering what you plan on doing for dust collection and would add a drawer for cnc bits, wrenches for changing out bits, and other things you want close by.

[@RnRWoodworkings]

Great job! how is the strength compared to traditional lumber and cost? trying to decide which way to go with my pro 5 4x4.

[@normakers5632]

Nice table! I really like the idea of slats on the shelf

[@scottfible8005]

What material did you use on this table and why did you choose the material?

[@deannaoverstreet4146]

Are you going to build Angela's cabinets for the soap shak? The cabinet is beautiful!

[@LogHouseFarm]

I am looking forward to seeing the new CNC on the table - one note though, there is a lot of white in the shop there and some of the shots are overexposed - I think using manual white balance might help with that - I'm not an expert, I am just learning this stuff as well and I have the same issue with some of my shots.

[@Samcraftcom]

Yeah, I had to step up the exposure in a few shot to keep the details. Lots of contrast in some areas. But I think it'll work out in the end with the machine in the corner to give the camera something to latch onto for auto exposure. :)

[@NotyourDaddy1]

Mighty fine lil table Sam. Sure put that new Brad nailer to work. Sweet tool to have around.

[@Samcraftcom]

Thank you very much! I really like the brad nailer, too.

[@tomm8188]

On a completely different topic, how is the bathroom fan working for extracting the hot air?

[@robertbankhead8661]

Last thought, why not add some edge banding for that pretty table, something that 'dolls' it up.

[@Bernardgrubb]

where did you find 2 sheets of plywood for less than a $100?

[@rehabmax]

Nice design, I would use 2 x 4 boards for the legs and top frame. 2 - 2 x 4s would give very stable legs would be less work than cutting all the plywood.

[@genesishep]

I think you missed the point of his build. Built with only 2 sheets of plywood, no additional lumber costs, no 2x4 lumber to run through planers or higher priced S4S costs since good quality furniture grade ply is flat (as his level shows). I was thinking 1 sheet of furniture grade ply and 1 sheet of Mdf for the top to ensure a flat surface but he made the right choice since the left over ply is stronger than MDF and he used some of the 2nd sheet to stiffen up the frame. I wouldn't trust MDF shot strength applications. Thick ply can be just as strong as standard lumber if used right, sometimes stronger. Personally I would have laminated the strips leaving gaps to create simulated mortise & tenon legs and frame but that may have required a 3rd sheet to cut. Paul Sellers recreates his entire workbench using plywood as mortise & tenons. He has a seven-part video series on his KZbin channel. His workbench is designed more for traditional woodworking using hand tools rather than power tools so it's built with strength in mind. My point is his plywood workbench is just as sturdy as his lumber workbench it's based on, possibly stronger due to the laminate of the ply.

[@zapa1pnt]

That table should support quite a lot, for you And it's Mobile. Great. Looks like your table saw cast iron could use some love. A little WD40 and an orbital sander, with 220, will save some elbow grease but it will still be needed for the paste wax.

[@josephbohme7917]

Underside blocks on the apron and screws pulling top down. No glue for future erplacenemt/ changeout

[@genrethemusicgeek665]

What kind of plywood is that? All the ones I see is brown

[@scottfible8005]

Where can I get the plans for the Shapeoko table. I'm getting ready to purchase the Shapeoko XXl Pro. I've been a cnc machinist for many years and an avid woodworker.

[@LandtoHouse]

Great looking table.

[@Samcraftcom]

Thanks!

[@danielewing1620]

Awesome table...I bought plans to another one...the creator neglected to mention the materials list was upwards of 1000 dollars. Just about to pick up your plans haha. What model table saw do you have? Do you like it? I've been thinking about upgrading to a 4520. Thanks for the build!

[@josephbohme7917]

Your center suspension boards depth could have been deeper for a more rigid table >L320 blocking in all directions once majors done.

[@awlthatwoodcrafts8911]

Nice job, Sam. Looks great. I would have reserved the space you used for the "switch panel" for a set of drawers and put the "switch panel" on the end of the table. You could always make the drawers as narrow as necessary to leave space behind the panel for wiring and such. Just another idea to add to the pile.

[@Samcraftcom]

I have plans to put drawers above the shelf on the left, but your idea for drawers on the right is great too! I've not changed the table (yet) but may have to consider the above when I do! :)

[@awlthatwoodcrafts8911]

@@Samcraftcom, I see the end next to the "dresser" as wasted space. However, there's enough sticking out to accommodate your "switch panel", leaving the space that faces the room (where your switch panel is now) for whatever you can dream up. If you've watched Jay Bates' CNC videos, you're likely going to want to build something for a computer. Maybe you can incorporate that into the table somewhere, eliminating another cart taking up valuable floor space.

[@joeyleerobbins]

Awesome table....where are you located?

[@clydedecker765]

Hooray! The shop floor is level...

[@Samcraftcom]

I was honestly super surprised and happy over that one! Remember... I built it! LOL Also very nice to see that over 5 years later and it's not sinking into the ground nor sliding off the hill (as some speculated). :)

It’s the primed kind.

[@derekslifer7774]

Are you maybe thinking about doing an inclosure?

[@Samcraftcom]

Yes!!! I'm waiting for the machine to arrive to know what real life dimensions to work with though. I'm also working on incorporating dust collection under the table to hide it, maximize space, and mostly to quieten it down. Thanks

[@derekslifer7774]

@@Samcraftcom Yessss, l cant wait to see it brotha, Im stuck on getting the “Shapeoko Pro XXL” or the “Onefinity Cnc”.

[@KikaWaiAlae]

Why not just use 2X4 to build the table rather than double the plywood? Strength, cost? I was always curious whenever I see folks build that way...

[@Samcraftcom]

I did it this way for strength since my CNC weighs about 180 lbs. Laminated plywood is rock solid and will not sag or move like solid wood.

[@KikaWaiAlae]

@@Samcraftcom by the way I did purchase the plan for that table after watching the video. Thanks for the explanation.

[@KikaWaiAlae]

I’m also trying to figure out which CNC to purchase. I’ve been also watching Garetts videos on the Long Mill CNC. I’m leaning towards that one but still need to do more research. I want to buy my 3rd one first. 😉

Looks great 👍 What kind of countersink were you using it because I would like to buy one like that.

It's still rock solid and great to this day! The only changes I made were to add in the drawer unit to it (there's a video on that, plus they're included in the plan set). Otherwise it's stayed exactly the same.

Is it possible to use 1/2 inch for this build? I spent a lot of money getting my shop together and I just threw down 3K for this cnc machine. Getting down to my last bit of my budget. lol

[@Samcraftcom]

I think that would be okay. I would just add more bracing supports under the top. This table is super strong. I literally used it as a scaffold to install ceiling insulation in my shop while waiting for my machine to arrive and I'm not tiny!! :)
