[@e.a.7265]

One of the few “how to” videos that explains thoroughly step-by-step building something.

[@jeffreyknotts4148]

Love it! Looks strong enough to last a young family with wee ones forever and elegant enough to be the centerpiece for a gathering of adults after the little ones have been locked away in their cells! 😁

[@RadDadBuilds]

Haha, that was exactly my plan while building this

[@carlpetitt2241]

Great build but one question -- at 16:55 you;re drilling holes in the top for screws to pass through and screw into the threaded inserts, but don't you really need to create slots instead of holes -- so that the table top will be able to have seasonal movement?

[@cristiangrigore]

Such a great table build and I was just as surprised as you that there is no thought of seasonal wood movement. I would surely use slots. All these great build videos but very few show how the finished product looks like a couple of years down the line.

[@johnsteiner8640]

The table will tear itself apart eventually. You have to "float" the top on a solid wood table. Today, in especially dry homes, a top that width could shrink 3/16" over all. But it will do it by expanding and contracting during the seasons as mentioned above.

[@johnsteiner8640]

@@cristiangrigore Yes! We just drill a round hole, about 1/2" - 5/8" as it's easy and use a fender washer with a wood screw centered in the hole, depending on the width of the table and species of wood. Softer woods will move even more. And it's not just the seasons, it's modern heating system that are so dry. Especially in floor radiant heat. In our home with in floor heating, I've see a 3" cabinet door frame shrink 3/32nd"!

[@PeceKeepr]

My thoughts exactly when I just watched this. Not allowing for movement will be trouble for this table. Other than that a great looking table

[@misha1d1]

Starting this project this weekend. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

[@rtisom]

What a privilege and joy to watch you complete this project - beautiful work!

[@DanaOredson]

Oh, I've never seen that toothbrush technique for removing glue in the corners. That's interesting!

[@MajiDFN]

The table turned out great. Your videos are so satisfying to watch and educational.

[@RadDadBuilds]

Thank you so much I really appreciate that

[@jamesgreszczuk1670]

Perfectly made white-oak dining room table! Awesomeness! Jim Greszczuk

[@tqblanks8310]

Fantastic I'm currently got so.e lovely French oak air drying has some lovely splitting so will add resin to it

[@RadDadBuilds]

Thanks, oak and dark resin go together really well. I have another table video on here I built years back and it had tones of splits in it. Turned out awesome in the end

[@ryanturner4050]

Love it - especially like the white oak theme you've been running in your projects. Looks stunning as always

[@RadDadBuilds]

Thanks dude, i really appreciate it

@@RadDadBuilds Thank you for the great video and the table looks amazing! I’m new to this…how many board feet was that project? Also, what joiner tool did you use (Dynamo)? Thanks!

[@aaronrapira5669]

That was really impressive to watch, such craftsmanship with precision. Great video, well demonstrated - your son will be tackling these in no time.

[@timhalleran3514]

Great build and video!! I liked and subscribed.

[@tjerkheringa937]

Lovely table! I am such a fan of oak. Knit picking the design... The design is based on square corners and bevels. I didn't really understood the rounded edges on the stretcher.

[@tylereggers6470]

Thanks for providing blueprints! This was my first build and it turned out to be a great Christmas present for my wife.🎉 🙏🏼

[@RadDadBuilds]

You are very welcome. I would love to see it if your on instagram

[@RadDadBuilds]

Glad you liked it, thanks for the support

[@daviOU812]

Great video, really like the detailed commentary! So I just downloaded the plans and am excited!

[@joei4ever]

do they come with exact cutting dimensions for every piece?

[@BlakePizzey]

Loving the subtle curves on the ends and man! You got game free handing that jig saw upside down and so close to your line lol

[@RadDadBuilds]

Haha thanks, that’s from years of installing kitchens

[@jeffreyjbyron]

This a beautiful frame. Without a domino, would you just use dowels?

[@MegaHammis]

Great build and great video

[@caitididnt]

How do those threaded inserts allow for wood movement when that top expands and contracts? Impressed with the upside-down jigsaw cutting!

[@hellqvistdesign8016]

That is so good man. Well done 👌 I'm about to build a 9 feet dining table and I really like your base 👌 cheers from Sweden

[@ecko1882]

I'm happy that I came across your channel. Great video, gorgeous table. I want to build this. Do you know an estimate of board feet you used?

[@chriswitek9455]

i would have just used a small chamfer on the bottom stretcher. youve got angles galore, just keep em going. doesnt need to really be much to make it comfortable either so it can be a small touch that goes un noticed but if someone does look at it theyll appreciate the continuation of the angled theme. that being said the way you did it also looks great and im totally biased towards chamfers

[@tavares7272]

Achei interessante o painel 3D na sua parede! I found the 3D panel on the wall interesting!

[@ipaintpro]

How much to hire that Helper you have lol? This table is perfecttion!! Thanks for sharing. Love your work Rad Dad !!

[@notsodeadpoet]

Hi. I bought the plans, and want to make a longer version of this table. I'm a beginner. Will I need additional supports if the table is longer, or can I safely stretch the dimensions using the same design?

[@SableSunsets]

So damn seem less !!! And with your floors it’s just stunning and compliments so well!!

[@RadDadBuilds]

Thank you soo much

[@adrianm545]

[@nateux8267]

FYI, Literally every shot of the final build covered 60% by ads for your channel & other videos... not a single clean shot of what looks like might be a nice table.

[@DavideBaccolini]

Classic youtube tutorial, 1 million dollars of tools for a video that adds nothing the others you find here

[@robertmabry6998]

I agree. What a terrible time to show the final product. It makes zero sense to do that. SMH

[@Zamboni-0805]

I agree 100%

[@joshuataylor1035]

Nice build buddy. Curious why you don’t use a riving knife? Just because you haven’t had an accident doesn’t mean you don’t want one 👍🏼

[@1sc241]

Looks amazing! I really like the tips you give throughout the videos. It's always great to learn new things.

[@RadDadBuilds]

Thanks dude, I appreciate that a lot

[@satxsatxsatx]

Excellent concept Excellent choice of wood Excellent execution But oh oh oh !!! All the sharp edges 😢 May I send you some round over bits? 😊

[@serjoga91122]

Awesome table. Are metric measurements also included in the plans?

[@RadDadBuilds]

Thanks, yes you get both

[@luckyphil6837]

Awesome stuff mate!

[@aj.8665]

Great build and awesome presentation. I'm doing a table build with castle joints right now. Do you ever use metal channel underneath to ensure the table top will never warp? Thanks.

[@RadDadBuilds]

Thank dude, so if I where making a table from wide live edge or lumber wider than 10” each then yea I would likely use some channel underneath. As I built this table for myself and it’s in a controlled environment I didn’t feel it was necessary

[@CharlesDavis-uc3cd]

Beautiful! I am Currently making this table according to your plans. Do you sand the base before assembly at all?

[@RadDadBuilds]

I would give it a light sand before and a finish sand once the glued together

[@DesignCraftWorkshop]

The table turned out so good man. Great build

[@RadDadBuilds]

Thanks bro

[@RELUvance]

Did you make those black chairs too?

[@onehandedmaker]

[@RadDadBuilds]

Thanks so much dude, I appreciate that

[@HRoseB92]

Looks amazing! Great job!

[@RadDadBuilds]

Thank you

[@sonicpentatonic]

Did you oversize the holes on the frame at all to give the top room to move without cracking or cupping? Even room for 1/4” of width expansion should be more than enough

[@kennnva551]

I was wondering the same thing! At the 18:14 mark, it doesn't look like the holes are elongated ... plus, the screw heads are sunk in! I'd be tempted to simply remove the outer screws, leaving only those located on the centerline ... then fit proper clips along the outer stringers.

[@cristiangrigore]

Agreed. I wonder how this table looks today, after more than year of seasonal wood movement. If this was for a client they might be a bit upset :)@@kennnva551

[@garrydye2394]

Great video and the only table I have seen yet that I want to own. Guess I'll have to build it. Any plans?

[@osvaldoestrada8534]

Do you have to adjust the Domino jointer to 80-degrees when you made the holes for the A-frame legs and top piece? Or does it always stay at 90-degrees?

[@dangjoeltang]

Love the build! Me and my girlfriend are huge fans of your style and white oak theme. Are you not worried about the table top expanding/contracting? I thought for table tops you usually want to use a slotted/pill hole so the attachment points could slide a bit.

[@RadDadBuilds]

Thanks So Much. If I was to build this table for someone else yes I would go with a slotted or a wider hole to allow for wood movement. That said I drilled holes larger than the width of my hardware to allow for slight movement in all directions. Plus this table went into my own home where I can control the climate and environment to minimize wood movement.

How much board feet did you order for this table? I know you give dimensions for each piece in the plans but not board feet needed to order
