I did this for my last computer desk and it was honestly not worth it. It looked great at first, but after about two years the pine did not hold up at all and it looked pretty bad. I replaced it with an acacia wood butcher block countertop. It did feel a bit like "cheating" to buy something premade, but it was less than half the price of buying a similar amount of hardwood and doing another glue up. Plus all the time it saved me.

Really? Sad to hear that Taylor. I have quite the opposite experience actually. I'm still using this table as we speak, 3 years later and it still feels and looks the same. It's holding up great honestly. I'm glad you're happy with your new table though. There's no such thing as cheating in making furniture, it's about doing what makes sense to you. There's no point building a table from scratch if you're not enjoying it, unless you want a very specific custom design of course. Sounds to me like you made the right decision! Thanks again for watching and sharing your experience!

Personally would have used pocket holes along side wood glue. Would have helped true up the boards to one another and straightened some stubborn boards out. Also alternate your clamps on both sides of the workpiece when glueing up, tightening some more then others you can bring some boards out of warp.

Honestly, this is great. You spent a lot of time making the table look really good at the end. It's a really rich look, like chocolate or coffee. I love it. Definitely a statement piece in a room. I think people would buy furniture in this style. Some basic end tables, or living room tables. Or desks. Maybe a bed headboard. You should try selling a few :) The only thing that would make this build better is incorporating the computer into the bottom of the desk. I'd also say Router/modem, and power bars. When I built my desk, I was surprised that with just a bit of extra wood, and a few extra hours into it, I could hide everything inside the desk. It cleaned up the room massively. Depending on how your house is setup, I would recommend this if you kind of have everything in the same area around the desk. Really can tidy things up. The only other tool I would recommend that you could get, that would make part of this a lot easier for you is a hand plane. You use it in place of the sander, and it'll help you get a nice flat surface much quicker. And if you can sharpen it well, smooth :)

Wow, thank you soo much my friend! What awesome feedback! Yeah I’ve been thinking about selling furniture once I’m done with the ones we want for our place 😄 Incorporating the computer/router/cable management etc. has definitely been on my mind! Great ideas. A tidy work space and cable management is so satisfying! A hand planer would be awesome, I can imagine that being really handy and make the process a lot faster!

What do you think of shorter planks going in the direction of depth rather than length? Some barn doors are built like this in two layers. Length wise is fine but could warp if stored in a humid environment?

@byferner 4 ай бұрын
Yeah for sure! I think you’d need some kind of reinforcement, like you said in two layers. Otherwise I think the table would lose a lot of strength and integrity. But honestly I’m no expert at all 😄 just my guess! But I’m sure it would look cool, definitely! I would also assume that you’d have less warping if you had two layers in opposite directions, but again I’m no expert! 😄 I’m just a newbie experimenting myself!

I would recommend a wax finish. Wax finishes with stains in the wax have thicker layers in cracks and light on flat areas. Then maybe some boiled linseed oil or maybe even shalack overtop

We really appreciate that John, thank you so much, so glad you enjoy it! We would probably use some kind of joins (dowels/dominos/biscuits etc) if the boards were as bowed/twisted as they were, before gluing them together. Just to make it easier to stop them from moving around while we clamp them down. That way we probably wouldn’t have had to sand as much. We would probably try different techniques there, just for the fun if it, but we’re still really satisfied with how the table turned out! If you care about the table being completely straight and don’t want to to bow or twist a little afterwards, you might also wanna insert some metal support beams or something. I think our table have bowed a tiny bit more since we built it, but not much. But like we said in the video, we don’t want the table to look perfect, so we really don’t mind that. I understand if that throws people off though, so keep that in mind! Sorry for the super long reply John! I hope you care to read it all 😂 Have a good one and thanks again for watching and commenting!

@@byferner This is a great idea, as it would make the table more solid in general too. Yes, I can see your point on making the table as you did, it has a nice rustic feel. Even with the bow, for somewhat a beginner, that was an amazing job and deserves recognition. Truly amazing what information people can gather quickly nowadays thanks to the Internet. Your video may also be a source of inspiration for woodworking beginners. I appreciate the length reply, hope to see more woodworking content from the both of you, have a good one 👍🏼

Beautiful build. My only tip for people who go w/ pine is to use extra padding between your monitor mount or anything that you plan on clamping to pinewood as it is susceptible to leaving indentations after long period of times being that this isn't as dense as hardwoods.

@@byferner you're welcome. I like the colors of your house. I just bought my first house and wanted to paint my main bedroom wall the same blue of yours. Also I would like to have a desk made because everything you find on sale is not right for some reason. And you showed something beautiful could be made with a basically cheap wood (unlike walnut, cherry wood,...). I won't have a shop or tools so I'd have to find someone to make it for me (I was thinking also of an iron frame to mount the desktop on and also to frame some drawers on the right) . But this video gave me quite some inspiration about colors and materials. Cheers
