Stan just came across your videos today. You do amazing work. I have seen a lot of people making the same items you do but you don't bore people with complex ideas and talking too much about stuff that most diy people do not understand. You are a great asset to the woodworking community. Cheers from Michigan (USA).. Darrell

[@founts1]

These videos are too good, they're consuming my life! I just bought my first house and am so excited about getting stuck into some ideas from your videos. Quick question. How do you make the wedges to jam in the dowel? Is there a special tool/technique to stop the wood breaking at the narrow end? Thanks

[@jnavonoD]

Ready for a feed, easy as! Nice one. I get nearly all my stuff from Mitre 10 because the service and advice is outstanding. And so was this video. Cheers!

[@Etheridge247]

I love the design of your table. However, I would like to build a larger table. Must the legs be larger for a wider and longer table?

[@LeighAlbert]

Ugly table? Are you kidding!?! I love it!!! I just need to get all the tools, Mitre saw, drop saws and sanders...Love these videos!!!

[@robertshepherd509]

Great video. I think im going to give this a try. What kind of wood did you use?

[@mitre10nz]

Hi Robert, We used recycled Rimu but you can use any timber you like really. SR

[@SuperHooLiGAn84]

Looks mint bro!

[@sajidullah]

excellent

[@kodyandkara]

Ah kiwis know how to keep it simple. Good on you stan. Too much bro.

[@gusbrecher]

Great video. What glue did you use in the final gluing process ( It looked like epoxy). Is a normal exterior PVA wood glue not suitable?

[@mitre10nz]

Cheers Gus! It's a lot clearer in the pdf instructions, and the terminology might need updating: www.mitre10.co.nz/medias/How-to-build-a-dining-table-WEB.pdf?context=bWFzdGVyfHJvb3R8MjczODM4N3xhcHBsaWNhdGlvbi9wZGZ8c3lzLW1hc3Rlci9yb290L2g5OS9oODQvODkxNzUwNzA4MDIyMi9Ib3cgdG8gYnVpbGQgYSBkaW5pbmcgdGFibGUgLSBXRUIucGRmfDgwY2U2YjQ0ZDc3OGFhZjBhZDk4YjQ1OTdiOTA1ZWZjZmQwNjFlYmE4ZGEyOTY2NjkwY2U1YjJjYjExNzBlZDc The other glue Stan's used is a two-pot glue www.mitre10.co.nz/shop/crc-builders-all-purpose-glue-500ml-tan/p/370859 ^Matt

[@jrose0182]

What's the size of the support beam used?

[@blessboy7970]

Good job

[@LylivMax]

That's great piece of work there. Would you know where you can purchase old wooden doors

[@mitre10nz]

LylivMax , You should be able to find one at a recycled timber yard. SR

[@tjcreations9596]

"A good dining table doesn't have to be bought home from a store..." lol Smith City hates you bro...GOOD JOB!!

[@eyadalhaj7447]

its nice work

[@gkosmonet]

Good craftmanship but the design with crossed legs seems unstable to me compare to the standard four leg table,especially when you drill a hole in the joints and the width is half.My opinion is four leg table is better and lasts longer.

[@jefffetterhoff2750]

love it help a lot ps your name is funny

[@TyroneJester]

that is a brillant tip for making crossed legs, you got a sub and a like for that one

[@MrALEG213]

Beauty

[@raylow304]

Oh yeah finally, metrics!!!

[@craigstill]

What is the glue you use to glue the legs together?

[@mitre10nz]

Hey Craig, a strong adhesive PVA glue will do the trick: www.mitre10.co.nz/shop/paint-decorating/adhesives/adhesives/c/RF5244 ^James

[@craigstill]

Thanks. I bought that Aquadhere PVA glue for the angle boards the legs bolt to. Tougher than wood they say.Guess I can just use that. Cheers.

[@jr122309]

Mint

[@JamUltra]

What were your legs made from?

[@mitre10nz]

It's Rimu 👍

[@chrisso4869]

that would look mint bro oiled with linseed oil

[@faatujohnandjoannathanks4575]

[@vaisolilanoue3203]

On the Stodoys site you can find many plans for this type of thing.

[@polianamahe3780]

>jiiii0

[@fortuner123]

Your method of fixing top to legs is flawed. It looks like the table will rock and eventually need attention.

[@josh01078583]

Ugly Table. But nice vid.
