BUILDING FURNITURE IN MY SHED

I have been wanting to build a resin river coffee table for the longest time, but have been too intimated because I don’t have industrial sized tools in my shed workshop. So, I found a way to make the table I’ve been dreaming up with four types of handheld power tools (circular saw, drill, sander, hand planer). So, whether you’re sick of resin tables or you love them, my hope is to show you that you don’t need a big fancy shop to make cool things!

Who would hate a river table? It’s gorgeous!

[@diyhuntress]

Some people just do... but, I love mine! Thank you!

[@pathardage1880]

Thank you for this video. I sold all my tools when we retired to Portugal, and I haven't found shop space yet. Your video showed me that I don't have to have "industrial grade tools" to re-set up my shop. I appreciate that. I also appreciated that you did a coffee-table scale project. Easing my getting going again. Thank you.

[@achrafyakhlefimagespace477]

The smell of wood refreshes my memory and makes me creative, and I see that your works are all art

[@stallman2]

Awesome job. I really like that you show its it's possible to make amazing things without thousands of dollars of tools. Keep up the awesome videos, thanks!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed!

[@rossanadehache165]

I LOVE THIS PROJECT! Thank you for showing us that we can do amazing stuff with non-industrial tools.

[@Cashline3d]

Thank you for explaining step by step how it was made. I love informative videos not loud noise music and time lapse video. Great job on this project.

[@diyhuntress]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the love.

[@the_crafty_studio_official]

It doesnt matter that river tables are "overdone" it was your first time and it turned out fantastic! Enjoyed the video! Way to go! Great job!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much!

[@TheJberrie]

This was so helpful. I love that you set strict limits with your tools for the added challenge. I also love how you needed to get creative and use the planer to remove the excess epoxy--I was wondering how to solve this problem with limited resources and now I know what to do. Thank you!

[@mdwav8tr]

You did an amazing job! I have wanted to do an epoxy river table with my son as a project since I first started seeing videos of them a few years ago. We're both confident that we can do it now, even with our limited tools! Thank you so much!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much! This makes me so happy! I’d love to see your project when you’re done!

[@MrStaples72]

I love this video because I too will be using mostly hand tools for projects. I also applaud you for leaving in the resin mishap because it shows how you not only dealt with the escaped resin but also how you dealt with it and made it look like it never happened. Great job and Table!

[@allent555]

That’s one of the best tables I’ve seen

[@diyhuntress]

What! Thank you!

[@datjohnsonjohnson]

I was considering buying a new end table for my living room. Thankfully, I found this video and feel way more comfortable trying my first river table. I’ve been hesitant for a while now. Thank you!

[@diyhuntress]

Ah! This makes me so happy! Hope you’ll share when you’re done!

[@vane8062]

I'll never get tired of river coffee table... Really my style..This is so inspiring

[@diyhuntress]

Same! Thank you!

[@AndrewMiguelez]

Sam! I can legitimately believe you made this table. It is awesome, beautiful, and fun to watch - just like you. Your videos are getting better and better and your projects... just crazy good. I can't wait for the next one!

[@diyhuntress]

You’re the coolest - thank you! Trying to learn and grow and share that with everyone. 🙏🏼

I love watching diy builds💕 I like how you show the mistakes and how you fix it!! Amazing job!!!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much!

[@hunterofendermen367]

River tables sure are fun to make aren't they. My first one was for a shelf 9x55x0.75 inches for my trailer. I even added led lights underneath it so it would glow purple. I really loved it a lot. This river resin table you made is absolutely gorgeous

[@floris2788]

Big like from The Netherlands..! I'll try this the same way you did.. Thanks for the honest video..!

Thank you so much for your informative video/tutorial. I, like you, love river tables and am going to start off small. Three coffee table set, then the kitchen island bench!!!

I'm so glad I found your channel, I had such a long youtube run thru your vids, you have some great videos, subbed, and can't wait for more content.

[@diyhuntress]

Ah! I’m glad you did too! Thank you!

[@WoodenItBeNice]

Hi Sam, I love this table. Most of the other river tables I have seen the resin is either translucent or have loads of different colours. The plainness of this just makes it POP!! Cheers, Huw

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much!

[@stephengirling7859]

Small workshop? Luxury! I made my first river table in my lounge with an electric router and drill and HAND tools! Lovely table you made.

[@colleenwilson7061]

I never get sick of seeing them. You did a great job! Keep the videos coming.

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much!

[@lostsailor2759]

Awesome, awesome job. That came out so beautiful. Ive seen tons of river table vodeos but his video inspired me the most even though your planing and sanding must have been very tedious. Thanks.

[@diyhuntress]

Thanks for the love! So tedious, but so worth it!

[@MsKaylakay19]

Works great I so needed this

[@bowerbirdstyle7661]

It looks really beautiful.

[@dalepage5511]

Thanks so much for making this video. Not only is it very informative but your table looks just great. And thanks for not filling the soundtrack with irritating music like so many guys do.

[@diyhuntress]

Glad you enjoyed!

IM glad you used your planner, i have one myself and i never know how to use it!

Thank you!

[@teeu.4493]

This is awesome, its nice to see someone do it without a million expensive tools - makes me more hopeful. Also for everyone in Australia, you can get a hand planer for $80 at bunnings, works a treat.

[@rhondaabdulla9453]

I’m going to try to attempt this soon, transitioning from coasters and cheese boards so I appreciate you sharing and showing what you learned!! It turned out beautifully!! ❤️

[@celwell4]

I've always loved the idea of this kind of project, but always been put off by all the kit you see people using in their videos, it's a real inspiration to see you do it with easily accessible tools, thanks so much for sharing and blessings to you and your family for the holiday season from the UK.

[@diyhuntress]

I’m so happy you enjoyed this process! I really wanted to make it work with what I have! Happy holidays to you too!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you!

[@MrTantarian]

Thank you for giving me (at least some of) the confidence to maybe attempt something like this myself sometime in the future! I do have some of the necessary tools and skills, but at the same time it does cost a fair bit of money having to buy the slabs, so I'm generaly too afraid of making a mistake and thereby wasting money. You got an incredible result! 💪👍

[@arielalejandrito]

It looks beautiful. I like your explanation and tips.
