Building a giant conference table without a table saw

[@RWingoS7]

Oh nifty, I didnt realize you were close enough to Piqua to make the drive. The finished tables look amazing, nicely done.

[@mountainlightwoodcraft]

Great work. Don't you just love the Domino 700 Quick Connector system! So strong... so versatile. Can not imagine life without it in my woodworking.

[@DirkfromDayton]

Great video. Thanks so much for the shout out. I think the table looks even better in person than on camera. That was a great day.

[@kevinwillingham172]

Dirk, Ryan, and that beastly 2200 are the real stars in the video. You’re no longer needed Jason 🫣. Also, beautiful piece and I love the idea of using the connectors as clamps 🤙🏼

[@bigmonkey999888]

Got to say what a beautiful job Steve

[@stevei0]

Looks awesome!! Nice work. Derek from Dayton is the man!!

[@tc9148]

Wow, so impressive. Love your choice of biscuits for glue up alignment. Found it works best for me as well.

[@EvanDunville]

Beautiful work! making it from 2 smaller tables that connect is a great idea, so much easier to move.

[@paulhargreaves1497]

...although still huge in their own right!

[@allantseattle7278]

Love the natural finish on the walnut. Beautiful work.

[@AngieWilliamsDesigns]

Great table. Love the walnut. I’m curious why you used the biscuits over dominos for table alignment? Not that it matters. I have both. I only use my biscuit cutter for one purpose though. LOL. I have it set to the setting to cut slots that I use for my z-clips to attach table tops. Just curious what was the reason for biscuits. I also think it’s amazing that you didn’t use the table saw at all. I’ve been getting my MFT and bench set up so that I can eventually not need mine.

[@bentswoodworking]

Because it’s only for alignment, either is a good choice. But honestly I kinda just wanted to use the lamello as a biscuit joiner because I bought the blade for it when I got the lamello but hadn’t used it yet. Also, with really long heavy boards I find it easiest to join the two pieces with biscuits over dominos because the dominoes can be really tight and more difficult to align when you have many.

[@GoblinSpanker]

I could also make a table like that if I had Pica pencil. 😂 Great video, beautiful table. 💪👍🏼

[@briannelson4122]

I gave this video a "thumbs up" mainly because of, Walnut!! Such great stock to work with too! Just a woodworker's dream! Great job Jason! I'll see you on the next one.

[@dirtychevyful]

Love it! I like tool reviews and all but watching you build things is way better IMO! Beautiful build!

[@pecantreedesign]

That's a beautiful table, only about half the credit goes to the walnut 🤣

[@jimrosson6702]

Amazing job the tables turned out absolutely beautiful.

[@brown_dog_builds]

As always, great video and instruction. That is some amazing looking walnut.

Nice video Jason! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the video very nice job really enjoy your work. 👍🏼

Glad you enjoyed it

I bet it smelled GREAT in your shop on milling day!

Great job!! I really enjoy your video content and the way you present!

[@jasonargentieri8954]

Really sweet work.

[@Tinker1950]

When I see that much high quality wood, I can't help wondering what it would cost to buy?

probably $400-$650 depending on your supplier @@Tinker1950

Math. Price for board foot. Multiply by the crazy amount of boards he has there. Guessing a few thousand. Especially high because he got wider boards and they are very clear. Considering walnut is in demand making the price very high. Napkin math. 14x5x1.5 because he said 14 by 5 feet and 1.5 inches thick. 105 board feet after waste. Few inches in n every board adds up… let’s go with 40. 145 board feet. Walnut can be very different price and 12 foot by 12 inch 8/4 boards are guessing $17 board foot. $2500 to $5000. That is napkin math. Could be wildly different. It’s a lumber place making a kick ass table.

[@Aaron-nj4ou]

Are you able to get glue ready edges from the track saw or did they require some more work that was edited out? I can’t justify the cost of a large jointer but the track saw I could use for a lot of things and have considered this as an alternative.

[@mikeknoll1130]

Really cool project the festool stuff is really nice for those big tables, the project looked easier than doing a slab table for some reason, I guess just using straight boards helps the process go better. Nice job.

[@cecilferris1163]

Awesome work.

[@vladimirkhudyakov1636]

Amazing job!🤩

[@DIYwithDennis]

WOW! Great work!!

[@kelvinphillips3528]

Great Work!!

[@aweisen1]

6:30 Do you think chamfering those holes for the inserts is a better idea due to the fibers separating? Or would it just be extra work that doesn't truly add much benefit?

[@randyrice7214]

When using your track saw, do you still follow the in/out method for proper alignment?

[@hhanger1]

very nice work. The Lamello Zeta P2 Clamex P-14s would also work well I would imagine.

[@davidschneider3118]

Jason, did you use a ripping blade or the standard blade that came with the track saw?

[@WrongTimeWatch]

Very nice

[@woodworkingnook]

Great work!

[@manuzach]

Why do you use a biscuit instead of domino ?

[@5280Woodworking]

Looks very cool. Do you use Rotex mode when doing that first glue clean up pass? I just picked one up to complement my 150/5 and was curious.

[@HarrisonFord11]

That’s beautiful wood and you did a great job. I only have one question as a fellow woodworker. With the tones of the boards varying did you consider using something like a walnut Rubio finish to help even them up?

[@josephreynolds9677]

Nice work, but the title is misleading.

[@RoscoPColtrane17]

This is the first and only guy I have unsubscribed from. I asked a basic question about any products I could use to avoid water rings in finishing and I got back a 1 word response to my question which was coasters. You wanna be a smart ass, no problem, unsubscribed. If you can’t answer why and help educate, then don’t take the time to leave a demeaning answer. Your personality is writing checks your work can’t cash.

[@MrBGizzle11]

nice

[@Everythingisgoingtobealright]

Nice, why biscuits instead of dominos?

[@AaronGeller]

Biscuits work just as well as dominos in this application and are cheaper. Plus, Jason has the Lamello which can do biscuits.

[@kevinwillingham172]

@@AaronGeller Dominos is just dominos and nothing special. Biscuits are more universal. You can put gravy on them, use them as a crust, make a nice breakfast sandwich…wait…what were we talking about? 🫠

[@testingperson8413]

Click-bait headline. :( What is the thing you'll "never do again?" I wanted to learn not to make that mistake. I feel cheated of my time from watching this video.

Not a fan of those Coasters, they're the worst part of the table!
