What a BLAST it was SHOOTING this with you 😉😉😉

[@brianfosmore]

This has strong hints of using Tannerite for the explosives. Fun stuff.

[@Todd-W]

Too damned funny Jason! You and I most certainly share the same sentiment on this "epoxy" fad. Reminds me of my distaste for Furbies! 😉😉😉 Jonathan Katz-Moses - good to see you out of your shop for a change and I just ordered 3 more stops! Tired of moving the single one I have around from tool to tool!

[@katzmosestools]

@@Todd-W we just upgraded all the hardware. You're going to love the new brass and winged knobs on the Stop Block. So much more surface area to grab onto (insert joke).

[@daviddejulio863]

Didn't you specifically talk with Steve on his podcast about supporting everyone in the community and growing the craft? Totally understand and respect it's not everyone's cup of tea but maybe river tables is what gets a beginner initially interested and motivated to start woodworking at a higher level and then they come across this and feel totally deflated.

[@JasonPeliwo]

@@daviddejulio863 and then again maybe blowing up said river table might get guys retiring from the military as explosive ordinance technicians into the craft of building awesome stuff. And at the same time help their mental health as they sand and sand and sand. There, Jason may have helped a lot of military folks with that stunt. You're welcome...

[@Alucard-gt1zf]

Most river tables don't look good but blacktail studios definitely makes the most buetiful ones

[@petervanniekerk2396]

Hello Jason, I am a beginner woodworker from South Africa and I absolutely love your videos. You have taught me so much that I use in my work. To all those who say that you can only complete these projects with all the specialized tools, I say you have not applied you mind to problem solving. I don't even have a workshop, I have to carry all the tools out of my garden shed and work on a work mate in the garden, and yet I can still make what I need, Take ideas and tips from these videos. My work is no where near the level of Jason's but he is a professional. He shows you what is possible. thank you again for your amazing, informative content. please keep going. P.S your jokes are cool.

[@soundbreakerharms3915]

hi 👋 im also from south africa i love woodworking but im a 20 year old student so i dont have the space or the money to do woodworking ☺

Hi Peter. I just saw your comment and just wanted to say hi. I'm also a beginner woodworker from Cape Town. Wishing you all the best

[@Artzandcatz]

My favorite video I’ve seen from you , not because of your deep passion for plastic work 😂 but tossing the negative right in! 🤟

[@kellyb7321]

For a 100th video special that was pretty spectacular. I actually enjoy river tables and watching them get made. To each their own i suppose. What an ending! Looking forward to what the future holds.

[@onhandart]

You turned a river table into a beautiful explosion, so see, they can be beautiful! And an excellent use of comments from people who think they have an opinion. Looking forward to the next 100 videos.

[@lauramarshall6376]

I've never had a desire to build a river table, but this was so much fun to watch - all of it. I only cried a little - for that beautiful maple that gave its life for this video. Thanks, Jason, for being as weird as I am! You too, Jonathan Katz-Moses.

[@richarddpetersen169]

Jason, your wife deserves a gold medal for putting up with you. Or is she like you? (smile)

[@charliehorse1967]

Two of my favorite woodworking KZbinrs. Can we get more colabes with Jason and JKM?

[@marinaugo4069]

Almost cried seeing a beautiful piece of wood, a complete table blown to bits! You guys are woonderful woodworkers and great teachers but souless youtubers! You made me suffer! Waiting for the next video...

[@rmyukon]

I hope, one day, to be at a place with my woodworking business where I feel comfortable spending 15+ hours and $3000+ dollars on a table that I will blow up.

[@gabesmith6475]

I love that evil laugh when Jonathan suggested blowing it up

[@krishershberger2442]

2 of my favorite things to watch....I never thought to combining them. Woodwork and explosives... I am not disappointed with this video!

[@mccrich8094]

Thanks for having such an open mind to discover that you really don't like river tables. I was really getting worried you might be swept away by the current, but thankfully Moses showed up and helped you part the waters! Congrats on 100 videos. Looking forward to the next 100!

[@coreydiculous]

I'm actually annoyed that this video didn't hit the algorithm properly. This was a special episode and deserves 7 figure views, at least.

[@darrenstricker7369]

Congratulations on 100 videos. To all the haters of your videos, if they don't like watching, then don't watch. They don't understand your type of jokes,, so they hate it.. We love your videos. Keep up the good work.

[@typicalthrill]

Meanwhile my heart is breaking for that beautiful wood that had to suffer for this project. Oh well. Congrats on 100!

[@Jimc4007]

Who would have thought that building a tank out of a lawn mower would lead to an explosive river table! Congratulations on 100 videos, looking forward to the next 100!

[@richardbrace7998]

What I meant with my comment about your gramma was that I truly thought she was awesome. But thanks for including my comment in your table.

[@mrobertson80]

The KZbin comments in the table were hilarious, but also gave me an idea. You should do a challenge where you build some fancy piece of furniture in an amateur wood workers shop, using only the basic tools an amateur wood worker is likely to have.

[@CC_farm]

I don't think I have ever enjoyed a river table build so much in my lifetime. The full impact of it's beauty did not hit me until the end. BM & JKM FOREVER...

[@justinbanks2380]

"Moses? Like the real Moses?" LMAO Also, loved the acting and 'change of heart' you had while building. Knowing full well you were going to blow this up at some point in the video. Loved watching the progression! Also, how does one find friends that are explosive experts? Or even rent? 🤔

[@tjf8396]

That was one of my favorite parts😂

[@lindysmith13]

At first, I was happy, he's come to the other side. River tables. Which, I knew would lead to a love of River dancing. High expectations were energizing me, the world felt finally at peace. It's St Patrick, pulling us all into a love of one thing or another, whichever way the wind blew. Speaking of blowing, nice ending.

[@afanaskinanton]

Hard core woodworking!!!!!

[@MrTechFreaks]

Jason, great work! Your story telling is incredible and one of the many reasons why I watch! Keep up the great work!

[@williamtaylor6252]

Im torn. Love this channel. But I also like River tables. U built a pretty cool one. Wish you'd auctioned or donated donated it. Can't say I didn't enjoy the explosion tho. Your videos are always cool and funny.

[@iandcrutchley3921]

Thought the making of the river table was a superb idea for someone who hates them, and then WOW!!!! blowing the fecking thing up was the best way ever to finish this vid just fantastic. Jason just like you I cannot see why anyone would ruin a gorgeous piece of wood with plastic. Best part of this is the footage of the explosion.👍👍👍👍👍

[@kristianhorsager2968]

The funny thing is that river tables was what attracted me to Woodworking… now I hate them. I Think you have been a part of it 🥳😂 Great video!

[@davidfrankhauser1666]

Hilarious! The irony of stating that you don’t know why someone would waste a beautiful piece of wood by pouring plastics all over it and then blowing up a beautiful piece of wood. Love the channel, congratulations on the 100th video. I will certainly watch the next 100.

[@larryk6330]

OUTSTANDING! You had me worried for a while there. I thought you had gone over to the dark side on river tables. Well done as always.

[@LiftRanger]

Fantastic! A Bourbon Moth-JKM collaboration! And this was a thing of beauty....the explosion not the plastic table.

[@JGill748]

I like your use of river table. I too don't see the point of a river table. I really like how you called out the negative comments and put them in the table. Just an FYI ~ not all followers are of the male variety. There are plenty of Bourbon drinking, female woodworkers out here too! Love your content, keep it up!

Thank you!!! You put another river table out of its misery.

[@bradysstewart]

I have nothing for or against river tables. I do think that if you're going to go through the endeavor of building one you definitely need to put your heart into it and you did. Seeing the process and the beauty of the finished product was great.. Watching you blow it up was way better. Love the videos you put out. I always look forward to the next one.

My wife asked me to make her a river table, I made it, she loves it. I guess I get the point that pouring plastic on wood is not woodworking (certainly enough woodworking youtubers make that point that it would be hard to miss), but I have to say, the success of that table has justified three years of tool and wood purchases for other projects, so I just can't join the hate parade.
