Making a 3D wood table top

Making a 3D wood veneer table top for this cool little table I bought a while ago, ive wanted to do something like this for a long time and im glad I waited as the Ortur Laser Master 2 Pro laser engraver made it so easy compared to traditional marquetry.

I am a 76 year old woman in New Zealand who just stumbled across his back yard makeover and now am totally hooked on his work as they say silence is golden

[@amandaeckert2204]

Same! Well, 44 in the US, but same ❤

[@thedevilsreject23]

First stumbled upon his beautiful vinyl player build which was simply stunning and now I’m hooked on his videos - no distracting music or dialogue he just lets his talents do the talking- incredibly talented individual 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥃

[@stefang1087]

When the table top was a reality, I thought " good job my man, but what on Earth can you put that on, 'cos will bee very difficult to find a match for it?" But than you came with that mecanism. Brilliant! Brilliant! Amazing job 😎👍 Bravo! 👏

[@corvus1238]

Love the fact that there is no music and we can relax to the sounds of the tools. Great job too!

[@TheSadButMadLad]

And the occasional subtitle doesn't detract or distract from the sounds of the tools and adds to the enjoyment of watching an expert at work.

[@Le_Comte_de_Monte_Felin]

Same. Most of the dubbed music on KZbin is awful, too loud & distracts. Love being able to see and hear what's going on!

[@lfcbpro]

Totally agree, it is really nice to just observe without it being a music video. I find I pay more attention and pick up more hints etc.

[@stefang1087]

Amin !

[@PetroicaRodinogaster264]

totally agree

[@janelloyd4332]

Absolutely beautiful

[@vincegregory797]

Stunning work, but doesn't it make you appreciate those who accomplish the same levels of marquetry by hand. Makes me feel proud to be a Yorkshireman!

[@k13ehr]

You seem to have many talents.

[@onepairofhands]

very clever, great humour to Goldfinger !

[@davidmitchell1391]

As the comment below says, thank god for no intrusive music. A beautiful, functional object that anyone would be proud to own.

[@pinstripeowl]

having come through art school, I appreciate the sheer amount of masking tape that nobly went to its end on this one. Fab work

[@butterknifelife]

Think I'd like one of those tables with a 5 elements/dragons theme. The veneer in tandem with this laser cutter really opens up the possibilities.

[@stephenmcfadyen1385]

Absolutely bloody brilliant, but a real test of patience putting it all together, great work.

[@jcsrst]

Between this and the circuit board table I am absolutely stunned! These pieces showcase both your technical skill and artistic talent. Just some of the most beautiful and skilled woodworking I've ever seen!!

[@stuartt455]

Not sure I would have the patience doing something so intricate but the end result is stunning, well done.

[@alasdairmackenzie515]

That is just extraordinary. Glad you chose something easy to run the laser through its paces... Beautiful.

[@8MoonsOfJupiter]

A true work of art - that table is going to show up on Antiques Roadshow in 2250 and the presenters are going to be gushing about the cradftsmanship that went into making it; it'll be a beacon of quality for centuries!

I would have thought that you'd have tried making something a bit more intricate, with it being your first time using the machine. ;-) It took me a few months to be confident using my CNC! Bloody great work, as always.

Absolute Beautiful Table

[@ivanwalker3391]

You must have put a lot of "time" into this project and, you just don't get "second" chances with such "minute" details. Brother, you have great "hands". I would have been well and truly "ticked" off after the first couple of "hours". Anyway, on the "face" of It, it was a real pleasure to "watch" you creating such a beautiful and "timeless" piece of furniture. A real "gem". STOP ME! Keep 'er lit Bro!

[@Warriorbox]

I made a marquetry table once, sycamore, mahogany and cherry. I made it with a scalpel blade and it took weeks. Wish I had a laser, but maybe not, as when you make a marquetry or parquetry thing with a blade, you do it from the back, so the v shape of the blade cut is minimised, and there is no visible gap in the seam. However the result you get here is wonderful.,

[@woody1320]

Thanks so much for sharing. Your projects are a source of inspiration to people like myself, to go out there and build interesting projects. It's so refreshing to have a channel where it's not a repeat of another workshop bench build or building a pergola in my garden etc etc, thousands of videos all doing the same thing, (don't get me wrong, I do like them and do watch them at times) but projects like these that push creativity to the next level is what it's all about and I for one I'm grateful for that. Thanks

You are an artist and your work is off the chart. I make furniture, guitars and other things out of wood. I know how difficult it is to work with veneers. Laser worked great but your computer skills and eye for wood variation made it possible. Take the table top and hang it in an art gallery.
