Floating Demilune Table - Bricked and Veneered Apron Pt 1

[@kevinbostrom9025]

It is always a joy to watch your skills at work and an encouragement for me to try more complicated projects.

[@GuysShop]

Thanks Kevin! Things are only as complicated as you make it....

[@wb_finewoodworking]

Outstanding demonstration. I’ve always wondered how things like that were done. Maybe in time I’ll even try something like that. Thanks you for sharing.

[@GuysShop]

Thanks for watching, and so glad you took something away from it!

[@periodcraftsmen]

Guy, Great job! Great project. Great approach. Its amazing how we can do things so different but the end result is exactly the same. Great work!

[@GuysShop]

Thanks Freddy! As always, there is more than one way to skin a cat. I'm pretty happy with the results.

[@KingPostTimberWorks]

super cool job Guy! wish i could get solid pieces of figured wood over here.

[@GuysShop]

Thanks Joey! Weird you can't get wood like that in NZ. Online maybe?

[@Simplecove]

That's an awesome technique I've not seen before. Thanks for sharing!

[@GuysShop]

Thanks Sean! Are you referring to the bricking?

[@Simplecove]

Yep, I've not seen the bricking technique done before. Very interesting.

[@TheShavingWoodWorkshop]

Love the contrast, it's off to a great start !!

[@GuysShop]

Tommy P in the house! Thanks buddy!

[@Uncle_Buzz]

Great stuff Guy. Looking forward to this series. Sure does help to have good quality equipment. You have a beautiful shop. Cheers! Chris.

[@GuysShop]

Thanks Chris! It's going to be a fun build and I hope you enjoy it!

[@Woodcraftedworkshop]

Great start to another great looking project!

[@GuysShop]

Thanks Brian! This is going to be a fun project.

[@matthewbyington2418]

[@GuysShop]

Thanks Matthew!

[@stevecollins9450]

Thanks as always for a well thought out instructional video, Guy!

[@GuysShop]

Thanks for watching and your support Steve!

[@IEnjoyCreatingVideos]

Off to a great start Guy! Thanks for sharing the video.😎👍JP

[@GuysShop]

Thanks JP!

[@IEnjoyCreatingVideos]

You're very welcome Guy! 😎

[@kuffyswoodwork]

Looking good so far. I'm interested to see what other embellishments you build into the table. 👍

[@GuysShop]

Thanks Kuffy! The apron is pretty much done, and there will be no legs, and just screwed in to the wall. The top is really going to be the main attraction on this piece.

[@brianpimental2948]

I like when. You explain what you are doing

[@GuysShop]

Thanks Brian!

[@TwistedWorkshop77]

Great video Guy. So talented! Cant wait to see more

[@GuysShop]

Thanks Dave! The top is going to be a lot of fun to make.

[@LouAdzima]

Very Nice work,Guy

[@GuysShop]

Thanks Lou!

[@glennhitt6003]

I have used the "bricking" technique before to save wood but never knew it was a technique. lol You gave me a lot of ideas for the future. Thank you for the time you have spend to provide a classy video for us to watch. I do have one question though. Why did you use hide glue over a pva/tightbond glue?

[@GuysShop]

I used it on the end grain glue up of the apron just because I trust it more on end grain. No proof it's better, I just thinks so. And when I glued it on, it makes it easier to clean up around the edge. Actually I use hide glue 99% of the time.

[@FredMcIntyre]

Looking good Guy! 👍👊

[@GuysShop]

Thanks Fred!

[@jcsrst]

Super cool! I like the brick work, seems easier and more stable than a bent lamination. Why did you choose this particular method over a bent lamination? Cant wait to see the finished piece!

[@GuysShop]

Just another way of showing how to do it. The bricking method is also a traditional way of making this type of table.

[@StudioJLT]

Yay! New series!

[@GuysShop]

Thanks for watching the new series. Yay!!

[@sunchipism]

Hey Guy, could you do a post of video on how you made the small fan ?

[@eversleyowl]

Real inspiration Guy, I must have a go at some veneer work. One question, why the climb cut for the first pace with the circle jig?

[@sunchipism]

climb cuts when well controlled with leave a cleaner top edge, free from fibres and tearout

[@GrahamOrm]

Nice job as always Guy. What sort is that little apron plane? 6:30 It looks very like a Quang Sheng Luban one that I have. Aren't they a joy to use? I think this video is unique, I see many excellent video's well made showing excellent work and there are always a couple of thumbs down, I never understand why. At the time of writing this has 120 ups and no downs yayyyyy!There's hope for the world yet!

[@GuysShop]

HaHa. Thanks Graham! The plane is a Lie Nielsen. I think it's a 102? My favorite hand plane. And trust me, there will be some thumbs down sooner or later on this video. You can't please everyone, and I stopped trying a long time ago! Thanks for watching!

[@GrahamOrm]

It looks identical to my own which is Chinese, you may have heard of Wood River?They come out of the same factory and are knock offs of LN. Made to a high standard and I would dare to say as good as LN. Of course LN are copies of the original Stanleys so no harm done!! Keep up the good work. Quality ;-)

[@MrRsg99]

Thanks again for sharing!

[@GuysShop]

Thanks for watching Bob!

[@reforzar]

Beautiful. Now I want to make one. How are you liking the jointer/planer?

[@GuysShop]

Thanks Brian! The combo machine is awesome. Took some time getting used to though.

[@james3706684]

Fantastic video guy! What type of glue did you use to attach the beaded trim?

[@GuysShop]

The trim piece on the bottom was glued on with hide glue. Thanks for watching!

[@daveweber1331]

Fascinating!! Thank you so much for sharing, Guy. Appreciate it. (Maybe I CAN do this, some day...) Hey, are you liking the combo machine? Never feels akward having "flip" stations, from jointer to planer? I ask because it's always struck me as an extremly practical way to own/maintain both machines - to say nothing of getting a honking wide jointer! :-)

[@GuysShop]

Thanks Dave! I really like the machine. Takes up less floor space, and a 12" jointer too boot! Changing it over is easy and not a hindrance at all.

[@NASTYcraftX]

Just wonderful

[@GuysShop]

Thanks Nick!

[@grandn8646]

That looks great. How did you come up with the 15 Deg measurement for all the cuts on the pieces?

[@GuysShop]

Thanks! 180 degrees divided by 12 which is the number of segments.

[@grandn8646]

ahh ok thanks

[@mattwaitman]

Love your videos!

[@GuysShop]

Thanks for watching and the nice comment!

[@g3718]

hello Mr. Guy. Excellent work and a good idea to do round details. I'm interested. so how do I have an idea to make a 400 mm x 2.6 m column from segments of a column. Thank you.

[@GuysShop]

Thanks! I'm not sure I understand your question though.

[@phucnguyenCNC]

Great video!

[@GuysShop]

Thanks!

[@tomlagatol4448]

Great project Guy! Terrific Vid!.... Who’s the manufacturers of the circle jig you use in the vid? Thanks

[@GuysShop]

Thanks Tom! The first is from Milescraft. I got tired of using it, and it's junk. I finally got the Circle Jig attachment for my MicroFence. That's the second one I used.

[@mfwoodshop]

that's going to be Awesome

[@GuysShop]

Thanks Mike! It is going to look real nice when I get done with it.

[@dmitriys3983]

great job. What kind of circle cutting jig is this ?

[@GuysShop]

It is made by MicroFence

[@rongoldberg8174]

Guy - what brand and model number is the circle jig you are using w dewalt trim router

[@GuysShop]

It is from MicroFence. Pricey little bugger, but well wroth it. Awesome tool.

[@Honu425]
