Basics of Woodworking | How to Sand, Stain, and Finish Furniture | RH Coffee Table Build

[@orbeuniversity]

Love this video. No table saw, no planner, no joiner; most of us don't own these tools, yet you managed to make this table in creative, accessible ways for the rest of us. I am inspired and encouraged to recreate this. Thank you for this video.

[@burnside398]

Do most of us have this fucking fancy machines? What the fuck man who have that kinda cutter?

[@natedawg3483]

Hell yeah, dude! Looks great. This is my kind of woodworking - one that doesn't require thousands of dollars in specialized tools.

[@Susan.I]

You should be proud of the job you did making and finishing this wonderful table!!

[@snteevveetns]

Good start! Keep practicing

[@hannah9235]

Love this video! You should include RH coffee table build or something similar in the title so it can be found more easily though. I can see your channel taking off. Keep it up. I look forward to seeing more videos!

[@JohnDolechek]

[@fabiomerlin8820]

Stunning result.

[@panmaiiakd8068]

Awesome video. I’m going to try to recreate this as well, RH is so expensive. Keep up the good work!

[@JohnDolechek]

thanks so much for watching!!

[@antoinettedavis660]

Love high in stores but, hate their prices so I’m definitely trying this. Thanks for sharing 😊

Great job on the video Brother. And the table is beautiful. Pine and Cedar are among my favorite media to work with. I have access to a broad selection of pallets and shipping crates at work, and can get them for free. Breaking them down for use is another story, but if I was gonna be sitting around, waiting to go to work, not doing anything productive when it's pretty outside, then at least I'm moving and accomplishing something.😎 Keep it up dude. About time for another build, isn't it.?🤓🤠

[@Otsp922]

What stain color was that?

[@scottbionicnerf8727]

Hey Brother. Those Triangular off-cuts make great corner braces for baskets and crates. Just say'n.😎 oh....so, that's what I get for leaving a comment 'before' the video is over.

[@dianebrata9210]

Cool video, I’ve been trying to get into furniture making as well!

[@JohnDolechek]

Thanks for watching!!

[@legrandeileen4863]

Beautiful , ❤ Bravo 🎉 🎉

[@Charlie5464]

Cool piece. To get more of an RH dup feel distress the piece and look up some staining techniques to get the look.

[@scottbionicnerf8727]

I think, at least to 90% of those who'll see this will surely mistake it for walnut, which is we want anyways. Great job. Also, I want to commend you for making use of the tools you have. The Miter Saw may not be 'the-best-choice' for a few of the cuts you made, but I'm all about using 'what-you-have' inspite of what you 'would-rather-have'. I have an old Skil 12.5Amp Circular Saw that I also mount upside down for use as a table saw.

[@claytondugas5255]

Nobody is mistaking that for walnut lol table looks great but looks nothing like walnut

[@scottbionicnerf8727]

I'm glad to be your 1k subscriber.

[@chaselambert2952]

Great job dude keep it up

[@kiwibug07]

Can you make a video about cleanup after staining. I'm so intimidated by staining because of thw risk of the brushes and rags spontaneously catching fire, id love to see a video about the proper but accessible ways of cleaning.

[@Todjcam]

Throw the used rags in a bucket of water for a few days, let dry then discard them in the trash

[@matthewwalpole2649]

Gaps in the boards, left glue squeeze out on the bottom of the top when applying finishing, the plinth is wonky and too many sanding marks. Its a nice looking table but if you took more time it would be an amazing looking table. Dont mean to sound rude but I took a lot of constructive criticism when I first started which tought me a lot. You are on the right track though buddy.

[@SherriePierce-j5q]

Do have a supply list that you could provide?

[@ma_rodz]

trying this DIY this week: what wood do you recommend? thanks!

[@SarahLopez-h1d]

Great tutorial on sanding, staining, and finishing! For anyone interested in custom made coffee tables, Chucks Woodbarn LLC is a fantastic resource. They create some beautiful pieces that might inspire your next project!

[@felixlimanto]

Quick question, how thick are those pine boards you were using? they look really thick, and i dont think i can find anything thicker than 0.34 inch in my local HD or Lowes stores

[@Todjcam]

They are standard 2x thick construction lumber meaning they measure an inch and a half in thickness

[@origindo1123]

watching bro do a rip cut on a miter saw was terrifying

[@sonsabiscuiteaters5913]

What if i want to keep all the texture and flaws of actual old wood? I guess I'll just pressure wash, brush, and clear coat.

[@astronemir]

That’s exactly what a sliding miter saw is made for..

[@johnstevener501]

That background music is pretty irritating

[@cjperez8988]

I will pay you if you make me one please 😊

[@tobedetermined4180]

Yes, you’ll be surprised how much items made in China actually cost to make. Same idea.

[@MarkH10]

Ligthtly Shou Sugi Ban. it will turn out better.

[@bobbyiliev3615]

Mate you sanding need more attention .You can se the sanding marks (pigtails)

[@goknightsfc6082]

Great job. Please change the music. The repetitiveness got annoying

[@jasonsfishcave684]

😂in what world is that worth $3000.00 ?

[@SimonEnabnit-vi6hc]

Made with like no professional tools

[@juansaladzar]

This does not look like a $3K coffee table at all nice try brah 😐
