Building a Classy Dining Table From Wood Bound For Landfill

In this video I build a dining table from some reclaimed hardwood I've collected from some houses being demolished around my neighbourhood. This will be one of the last projects in my workshop, which is a bit sad, but I'll hopefully end up in a nice workshop down the track for more projects. I finished the top with hard wax oil and the base with BLO, mainly because I didn't have enough hard wax to do the whole table and didn't want to buy another can.
Thanks for watching!

Morning Dylan, Great Video!! I'm glad you leaned into not trying to match the colours of the timbers. The varied tones look intentional, and go well with the other colours/finishes in that room. Thanks for creating the video - i appreciate watching it.

[@dylanbarfieldfurniture]

Thanks, it's a bit fruity but I reckon it looks pretty cool

I’d love to learn more about your workshop and how you’ve built up your tool collection - what aspects you value in your tool selection and what you’ve learned about what you look for in a workshop

[@dylanbarfieldfurniture]

My tool collection started with hand tools, and a few drills and small power tools. I got a table saw when I moved into this space and then just gradually got tools over time, a lot through marketplace. Most things I bought when I needed them, so I don't really have any tool that doesn't get regular use. And in terms of workshops, I don't really have enough experience to know what I value, more space would be great, it's hard to remain organised in my current setup and things end up all over the place. My outfeed table is my work table and that often gets quite annoying!

Nice work 🎉😊

Thanks

Nicely designed table and good job on the video. I'm looking forward to seeing more of those chairs!

[@dylanbarfieldfurniture]

Thank you, I might have to do a chair video at some point down the track!

[@MegaHammis]

beautifully done!

[@eatdrinkwineguy]

Looks good. Good luck with the workshop. Was in a similar but different situation and worked out on the end so sure something will eventuate.

[@dylanbarfieldfurniture]

Thank you, yep I'm sure it'll be fine

[@jayvanbebber5656]

That's a gorgeous table. I really enjoyed this build video. Well done!

Thanks!

[@bridgm854]

What a beautiful table, and so nice to see that gorgeous hardwood getting a chance to shine. (I also always look forward to seeing your adorable shop dog in these videos too 😉). Amazing work yet again, thanks for sharing

[@dylanbarfieldfurniture]

Thanks for watching, yes Georgia is an absolute legend

[@onehandedmaker]

Hey Dylan, another great project and entertaining video. I admire how you dealt with the heavy Australian hardwood, credit to you. Take care and keep up the woodwork. James - One Handed Maker

[@dylanbarfieldfurniture]

Thanks James, it's thankless timber but scrubs up alright in the end!

[@atexodus7]

Beautiful! You deserve so much more views. Keep up the good work!

[@dylanbarfieldfurniture]

Thank you!

[@markwhittaker6411]

Mate, the table is really lovely, great job. I'm in the UK, what the hell was that little green creature?😂

[@dylanbarfieldfurniture]

Haha thanks, look I don't know but I assume it's highly venomous
