You're right! It is beautiful grain! Wonderful job!

[@marmotaworks]

Thank you!

[@pathardage1880]

Lovely build. Thank you.

[@marmotaworks]

Thanks for watching

[@StuartKrueger-k3f]

You should consider using slotted holes in your metal inserts and leg mounts to allow for movement of the wood through the seasons.

[@marmotaworks]

I do it

[@oifivguy]

This piece turned out great!!! Nicely done.

[@marmotaworks]

Thanks a million!

[@stevedoolanTacoma]

I would imagine that you thought, from a single piece, easy. Ha Ha Ha, lots of repair and restore work on a piece that old. Fantastic job my man. Thank you for sharing your work with us Miguel.😎

[@marmotaworks]

You are right, it was not easy

What an absolutely beautiful piece of wood. Your skills are outstanding!

This is beyond gorgeous. I would have paid whatever to own it. 😍

[@marmotaworks]

Thanks!! It's already sold, but I make custom tables. 😉

[@roxoriginal732]

Another beautiful piece. Olive wood has to be one of my favourite species of wood that and claro walnut but olive just reminds me of abroad and not rainy England lol routering that slab flat looked fun 😭😭😭 lol 👏👏👏

[@marmotaworks]

Olive wood is the best

[@roxoriginal732]

@ yeah it’s got that look that’s like a spalted look but more defined . Especially when it’s had a few coats of hard wax oil on it . Ive got some lovely Spalted horse chestnut and willow slabs ready to go and I am in the process of finishing up a huge maple river table so I’m looking forward to getting that done . Just a quick question how long does it normally take you to do a whole project start to finish not including the days waiting for the resin to cure ? , Yh mate i admire your work 👌👌👌💪

[@marmotaworks]

@@roxoriginal732 That depends a lot on each project. Let’s say around 2 or 3 weeks on average, but keep in mind that I spend a lot of time recording the videos.

[@roxoriginal732]

@ nice one . Yh I’m not very good at recording but you got it down neatly…. thanks for replying mate have a lovely day 👍👍👍🙏🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

Beauty-full. Greetings from México City.!

Thanks. Greetings from Berlin!

[@jeffreyjbyron]

Amazing! You have become a main inspiration for me. Question: I notice your c-channel has simple round holes and not slots for wood movement. Will this be a problem? Is wood movement not a viable concern for ancient olive wood?

[@marmotaworks]

Thanks!! The round holes are slightly larger than the screw diameter, allowing for some movement. In any case, I don't think this wood will move too much.

[@jeffreyjbyron]

@@marmotaworks Why do you think that? I hear so much about wood movement in table design, but I've never experienced the problem myself. Do you think it's an irrational fear? Thank you!

[@k.wooden]

Hello brother, I am also a carpenter, I have watched your video and really appreciate your work.

[@marmotaworks]

Thank you, positive comments from woodworkers are the best.

[@Александр-ь8х1р]

Очень круто!! Желаю Вам удачи и успехов!

[@marmotaworks]

Thanks a lot!

[@rschiwal]

I definitely prefer your style to the guys who use more epoxy than wood.

[@marmotaworks]

I'm glad you like it

[@rschiwal]

@@marmotaworks I do. My father was a master woodcarver who loved the medium. I have inherited that from him. He would have loved your work too.

[@terrywest1094]

When you applied the hard wax oil, did you use the scotch brite pad while it was still wet?

[@marmotaworks]

Yes, so it penetrate the wood better

[@donalddparker]

Nice work. I like that you got a semi-gloss sheen on that with a hard wax oil. I've been using Rubio but it tends to leave a relatively dull finish. I'm curious what your recipe or manufacturer of choice is?

[@marmotaworks]

It's osmo polyx oil

[@Hush505.4]

Very beautiful,👍

[@marmotaworks]

[@thesandhaus9689]

Everything you build is purely well thought out. I find it so brilliant that you suggest charcoal instead of using a dye. Bleed is awful. It’s a brilliant strategic suggestion. I also admire that you build everything legacy style. Meaning that it will last for many many many years.

[@marmotaworks]

Thank you! I dare not use charcoal for large pours, but it works very well to fill small gaps.

[@Moonmun1626]

Good wow table. 👌🙏.

nice table. Question: Are you putting charcoal into the epoxy before pouring it? (Just double checking as I never used epoxy before.)

[@marmotaworks]

Yes, put the charcoal and mix it.

Music is somewhat out of place and irritating. I don't watch videos for such noise. That's a fine video and full of very helper hints along with your very good videography. Your finishing work is outstanding.

[@marmotaworks]

I'm glad you like almost everything. I'll work on the music.

[@Chinco_NL]

I really like the wood, but the black epoxy isn't the most original idea anymore. Not sure what would be a better idea, but the wood is gorgeous. Would it not be possible to use your sawdust, combined with epoxy?

[@marmotaworks]

It may no longer be the most original, but it certainly contrasts best with the wood. The truth is, I felt sorry for throwing away that peculiar sawdust...

mmmm Pizza. What other fruit do you think could be put on pizza to cause the same type of debate as pineapple?

[@marmotaworks]

I was going to say that putting fruit on pizza should be forbidden, but then I realized that tomato is technically a fruit, so all pizzas have fruit 🤔

[@joseluisvelamarco3358]

Jam, pear and gorgonzola?? What do you think?

[@dingo1666]

I feel sorry for the old tree that got cut down after 1000 years.

[@marmotaworks]

They are trees that were dead and are cut down to replant the field

[@AlainStar]

🙏👏👍💪

[@marmotaworks]

😁

[@TheJMBon]

Should be highly illegal to cut down any tree over 500 years old. Yes this beautiful table will grace someones living room for a time but it'll soon end up in a dump.

[@marmotaworks]

Trees are living beings, therefore, they die. There aren't many species that live over 500 years. This tree was already dead when they cut it down.

[@lakhdarhamida1697]

I Bet the olive tree was stolen from Palastin

[@marmotaworks]

Unfortunately, I don't think people in Palestine are currently worried about someone stealing their olives. And I can assure you, no, this wood doesn't come from Palestine.

[@lakhdarhamida1697]

@marmotaworks well, I didn't meant you in my comment, I was talking about big companies, sorry if my comment offended you.

[@brianlittizzio8253]

I can’t believe that nobody is commenting on what an eyesore that black epoxy edge patch is. The olive wood is so beautiful but when you look across the table top what do you see? A black splotch. It doesn’t move along the grain to draw your eye across the piece and it isn’t a complementary or even a suitable accent color. It’s all you see- a black splotch. Absolutely unacceptable. Such beautiful wood and you don’t even notice it, not at least until you’re done trying to Ma kg r sense of the black epoxy. I’m sorry brother, but somebody has to speak the truth

[@marmotaworks]

It's a good thing that there are kind-hearted people like you in the world who possess the truth and are willing to share it with others (because obviously, that's not a personal opinion, it's THE TRUTH). I'm going to call the customer who was delighted with his table right now and tell him that he was wrong, that it's actually a terrible table. Thanks for opening our eyes!

[@Tdotttttt]

@@marmotaworks hahaha well done. Ignore that jealous guy. If I had the extra money floating around I would totally pay a premium price for this. Btw, I didn't get what you mean by this table is a commission from a client, for a cellar in London. You paid for the slab and you made this table right. How does it basically work? I didn't understand this part.

@@marmotaworks Thank you very much! I learned a lot from your videos and I try to do the same. The name of this wood is angico. It is a very common wood in Northeast Brazil. Very hard. It took a lot of work to finish it. I hope to reach your level of perfection one day! Thank you one more time!😉
