Beautiful and Easy Farmhouse Table Build - 12

In this episode, we are building our dinner table for our new home. The table turned out great and the final dimensions are 8ftx36"Wx30"H. We purchased the boards from Lowes due to our sawmill boards not being dry yet.

You guys seem really nice and cool, and I love the effort on this table! As a professional table maker, I can give you a few pointers for next time. Pocket hole screws are ok but you must use glue or else the table will begin to separate within a relatively short amount of time. By sanding up to 800, you closed the pores of the wood and made it unable to accept stain, next time, stop at 220! you cannot feel the smoothness of the wood anyways, because poly is a topcoat and rests above the wood. By the way, make sure you do at least 4 coats of poly on the top and bottom equally! Finally, when you attach the base to the tabletop, make sure you have slotted holes in the base to allow for wood expansion because if you do not, the table will bow or cup within a short amount of time. Please let me know if you have any questions and again, you guys seem great and good job for your first time!

[@brianbremer6337]

I worked for an unfinished furniture store doing custom finishing for 8 years. We only used 150 grit sandpaper for pine and 180 grit sandpaper for oak prior to staining and clear coating. The finer grit sandpaper ends up polishing the wood and doesn't allow the stain to soak in as much. Your clear coat will level out any imperfections in the wood. Your table came out great!

We kept finding we needed a folding table. This is so easy to store. kzbin.infoUgkxStL0QRChBju4aQlnTrRgBZvafFog0KU3 Opening and closing is easy as well. It has a great handle for carrying around the house. Its pretty lightweight and slides around easy. We bought it for our daughter’s first sleepover. Breakfast was a blur - but 12 7-8 year olds fit at the table with room to spare. We used it at thanksgiving and 6 adults fit comfortably on each side plus 2 on either end for a total of 8. Super easy to clean up afterwards as well.

I love pocket hole joinery, and use it whenever I can. But in the case of a table top, I think I'd go with offset double row biscuits and glue. (and lots of clamps!) The primary reason, being to minimize any chance of splitting , warping, twisting and cupping that softwood framing lumber is famous for.

[@tonys602]

Just happen to come across this video and I must say that table came out great especially for never doing it before. Just a side note, there’s no need to sand to that high of a grit, depending on the wood and what finish your using 220 is usually more than enough. Your top coat will determine the smoothness of the final product. And as far as pocket holes or biscuits or dominoes, there’s no need for any of them. Glue and clamps is the only thing you need. The pocket holes are good if you don’t have clamps but it’s really just holding it together until the glue dries. And biscuits and dominoes are only used to help with alignment(which does help quite a bit) but adds very little strength to the structure. Not sure if you mentioned how you attached the top but make sure you used something that allows for expansion and contraction otherwise the top may crack or warp. Hope this helps for your next project. Great work.

[@TripleLRusticDesigns]

Thank you so much Tony. We will definitely use glue on our next build. We also will not be sanding so high. We appreciate your feedback.

I used pocket holes and glue on two of my tables. Been outside under a patio cover for nearly 5 years. Works fine, but I'm cheap, so after the glue was nice and hard, I actually took all the screws out to reuse them later! So, glue will be just fine.

[@TripleLRusticDesigns]

Thanks for the feedback! I will use glue on the next table build.

[@spudth]

I like your thinking!

[@quengafarm]

@@spudth I don't use pocket screws often, but I have not bought new ones in a few years. I realized most people only glue up tables tops, so if I was using glue and screws, what was the point of screws? I don't have a lot of clamps, so pocket screws are now mini-disposable clamps to me. When they get too stripped out, I leave them in. Otherwise, I wait for the glue to dry nice and hard and take them out! I still laugh a little when I do it.

[@dbackhusker]

Looks great! I always use glue. I’d use a biscuit jointer (because I have one), or a Domino over pocket holes with the glue simply to avoid all the pocket holes under the table. I’m also a big fan of real breadboard ends. They add stability to very large tables and they are fun to make, I think they look cool too. I’m not too particular on the brand of stain, but I do like to use the staining pads during application. On soft woods (pine or alder), I use a homemade Pre-stain.

[@btrswt35]

Pre conditioner is a must for getting a even finish on pine. Good suggestion.

[@robertcombs4916]

Yes always use pre stain conditioner but the reason the top came out lighter is because you sanded it to a much higher grit that the rest of the table. The lower the grit the more stain will absorb resulting in a darker color.

Most beautiful carpenter in the world, awesome woodwork!!

Curious how that table top does over time? That’s a thick slab with lots of potential for movement for just pocket hole screws.

[@spudth]

That's a nice way to say it's crap wood. They made it look nice and sure even my picnic table is over 15 years old (built from magazine directions) but why not search out maple or oak etc.

[@TripleLRusticDesigns]

Thanks Robert. I will do an update video in a few months.

@@spudth I didn’t say it was “crap wood”- you did. Not everyone can afford hardwood in those dimensions.

I would have at least used some glue along with the pocket screws.

[@md6397]

The glue cums after you screw the pocket. Duh.

[@petercaro1112]

@@md6397 no it doesn’t. You glue the edges before you screw it. Duh.

@MD 63 It‘s always good to check your facts before you comment. Gluing up after screwing would be impossible!!!

always glue. The modern glue that is made today has superior holding power.

Thank you Kurt. We will definitely use glue next time.

“Master Carpenters” scribe every chance they get. It’s the best way to make an exact cut. Ask me how I know.. Beautiful table!

[@TripleLRusticDesigns]

Very nice! It does work pretty good!!

[@stevebrough304]

Master carpenters do scribe whenever mating an irregular surface to a non-irregular surface. It worked for you in this instance though. When building cabinets, furniture, and or other types of custom woodworking, everything should be cut and built to be square and precise. With this said, scribing is not a normal practice with those applications. In reality, you're doing a good job and learning in the process. To truly build with precision, you'd need serious wood working equipment in a shop setting. Many "woodworkers" don't really understand this. Hope this gives you insight into further projects.

800 sanding on the top of the table may have been a bit much, but you did a great job thru-out the project. good job. atta kids.

[@btrswt35]

Agreed. Like he said, the stain was lighter on the top, that's because they sanded so high and the wood fibers weren't open to except the stain. It also could let to adhesion problems with the finish later on . You get a smooth top from the finish, not necessarily the wood itself.

[@kensmith2822]

Would have been better off going up to 220 and using a sanding sealer for a more even stain

[@TripleLRusticDesigns]

Thank you David! We won’t sand that high next time
