Matt Cremona’s New Bedside Table - Angled Through Tenons

Matt decided his old bedside table just wasn’t cutting it and, in true Cremona style, he set about some pretty serious joinery to create a new one. Into his new bedside table, Matt crafted 8 Mortise and Through Tenon joints to achieve a perfect blend of form and function.

Nice. I can't believe you did that end cut on the table saw without fence support. Amazed you pulled that off. Good work!

[@Sly_Wolf_1]

A simple design beautifully brought into reality, so nice to see someone using hand tools and not solely relying on a power tool and jigs to take all the skill out of it.

[@alanblasczyk1779]

Nicely done and beautiful.

[@johnburens3395]

I am making a bench style stool with splayed legs and angled through mortise and tenon joints out of some Cherry Matt. I have enough for three stools so I might try the angles your way on one of them. I'll send you some pics when I'm done.

[@mrcannamike5636]

Can’t get enough of the Matt C. Videos!

[@kortt]

"and as always...happy woodworking" Awesome!

[@claude2230]

I really enjoyed this build. The recording, dialogue and humor were all solid.

[@garyknable1155]

Loved the design and the way it went together. It will definitely keep your beer off the floor

[@MrJohnnyboyrebel]

Freehand angled tenon cutting on the table saw, gutsy move, man. I won’t even consider doing that.

[@CraigsWorkshop]

Yeah, time spent making an angled tenon jig would be more than repaid by the time saved in handwork later.

[@fredleber2432]

yeah I have no idea how you could just eyeball the right angle?

[@scottsimpey2965]

Beautiful yet simple looking table. Nice to see a build video from you.

[@chweatherl]

That was fun. It's good to see you build a quick project now and then.

[@thunderarrows9784]

Nice to see you doing some woodworking

[@veepsgarage]

great build. great video. It’s relaxing with the music.

[@davidhenryhudson3102]

Where I come from we call that a bench! Nice build!

[@jaredwilliams5252]

He had way too much fun with this video lol. Keep up the good work.

[@garryevans3594]

clean simple design. the joinery is very clean

[@drmkiwi]

A very heavy duty saw horse! Nice build. Cutting those angled tenons on the sides looked pretty precarious! Thanks for the vid. Cheers, David.

[@mikelatta484]

I enjoyed the build. And stuff.

[@espnmk]

what a beautiful table Matt , i'm gonna try my hand on making something similar but as a stool, i have several redwood slabs that could be joined and made into a longer table top but i don't have many skills or tools but plenty of time so i'll try my hand at some stools...

[@ShaukatHakim]

You really enjoy your work😎

[@nealwalden3543]

Hello Matt: How do you like the Triton router? I am particularly intrigued by the rack and pinion action in lowering the bit....

[@stevecollins9450]

Very nice build, Matt.

[@eugenedaniels5925]

I have been watching your videos for some now. You always do high end work. my question is. Do ever make a mistake? I make them on every project I do.

[@michaels.8663]

Beautiful! Truly a master.

[@kieran.stafford]

I enjoy your videos Matt and I'm not the safety police but I had to comment. At 9:54 - holding a large upright piece of wood unsupported, at an angle, into a dado blade was one of the most dangerous cuts I've seen on a table saw.

[@RobRobertson1000]

That was scary. At the least you should have said 'don't do this at home kids!'

[@walterrider9600]

thank you Matt

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Beautiful!

[@Cradley684]

Perfect Matt, nice job, have you done this before. LOL !!!

[@JENNISWISS]

great content and nice table👍🍀

[@hkimsey]

Very nice video!

[@kevinmiller5316]

Matt I enjoy your channel. I recently had a walnut log given to me. It is 21" at the butt end, I am going to build a chainsaw mill but was wandering what size of chainsaw bar would I need with the log being 21",as well how wide will the mill need to be?

[@maehay4065]

Matt I love this beautiful table! I know you made this look easy to make but it must have taken a lot of time to make because it sure looks beautiful with the mortise and tenon. It would definitely make a show case piece of furniture in a bedroom or beside the sofa. If I made something with this quality I would be very proud of myself. And I know you must feel the same about your master skills working with wood. 👍

[@craigpereira6381]

Very Nice

[@FredMcIntyre]

Awesome stuff! 😃👍🏻👊🏻

[@freepress8451]

Relaxing video, amazing what you can create in 17 minutes ;-))

[@josephadams5993]

Nice stuff

[@rickirizarry5079]

Matt, why did you choose to angle the tenons and not the mortises instead?

[@JacksonPurple2023]

That’s a professional tenon there Matthew. I wouldn’t have the kahunas to make that tenon in my shop.

[@JayHuemann]

Video quality is different. Like it a lot! New camera???

[@dennisfischer9930]

Amazing joints, Matt....and you have a videographer! Hope you keep her/him!

[@williamellis8993]

Nice table. I love watching Matt's chisel work. Who was the off camera critic?

[@ThisIsHowIMadeIt]

You make sound effects when you work :)

[@matthewsmith8573]

I like the beefy design and the precision joinery. I'm no expert, but some of those table saw cuts were a bit sketchy -- without a jig, sled, _something_. I prefer the no-music videos when there is commentary and/or shop sounds: the music is just distracting. If the sound track is just music, I can simply mute it if I don't care for it, but on this one I would have missed the sounds of woodworking, and the interesting/funny comments.

[@brucegoodwyn978]

Great build! Love the way Matt pays attention to detail even with the parts of the mortise and tenon joints that will not be visible to ensure a solid fit. This video also gives a great view of the complete line of Triton tools offered. This design lends itself a little to Japanese Carpentry joinery so even better. On a side note: Personally, I could do without the cheesy, cosmic kabuki music.

[@martyngebhard7311]

Any one know the make of that bevel

[@eugenedaniels5925]

What brand of chisels did you use in the video you posted June 4,2019 titled New bedside table Angled through Tenons

[@joefaraone977]

Matt, what was the finish you used? I love the way the cherry took the finish and made everything pop. Nice work -- as always!

[@joshleavitt2722]

looks like General finishes "Arm-R-seal"

[@guillaumebrun4883]

On comprend pourquoi il bosse avec Triton.😁

[@jean-marclabonte2844]

Nice Project Matt. There were a few cuts you made on the table saw which were very dangerous, at 7:17 you were finishing the cut and it I could hear it starting to bind. That's when kick back happens. You should have found a better way to do that cut, maybe use your mitre gauge. The next two were 9:53 and 10:08. Those were two very dangerous and sketchy cuts. I could see the board wobbling a bit as you passed it over the blade. You could have spent a few minutes making a support from the off cuts to help support the board. You sacrificed safety and logic for speed. Not a good decision. Overall, It's great project but you were acting recklessly. I am not sure a "Master of Wood" would have proceed so unsafely. Thanks for the video and I hope many people duplicate the bedside table and not your sketchy table saw cuts. Take Care.

[@markarmstrong2592]

Top class as normal

[@tiffanyjohnson3110]

I'm the first!!! I could listen to you chisel all day.

[@ApexWoodworks]

Matt, watching you jointing those planks reinforces to me why I have a European-style bridge guard rather than a porkchop style. Mine is always in position to protect you, whereas your style opens up as soon as a board goes by it, and - just as yours does - often stays open even after you've completed your cut. Check it out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/anWzlYeEfN2Jg7s Thanks, as ever, for sharing your shop ideas with us.

[@davidgagnon2849]

At 10 minutes in......freehanding the bevel cut on the table saw? Wow.

[@RedAngelS60R]

Gluing and cutting with all sounds and you’r silent comments are so relaxing...

[@loomko]

gotta ask how do you feel about Triton tools

[@loomko]

well there i go trying to be sarcastic and he mentions the sponsor at the end

[@65BAJA]

Second Yesterday I made a bow saw. it had two 1/4" x 9/16" tendons. lol

[@dwighthapeman6590]

There is no difference between 2nd and 697th.

[@normjacques6853]

Is that a plunge router or a space shuttle?? Sorry.....I'm just jealous because i can't afford one!

[@benbirdsill4709]

Who is this guy? The new Matt Cremona persona?

[@newfization]

He applies glue to his boards like I apply mayo to my sandwich, overload the first slice then move the excess to the second.

[@notatechie]

When you were cutting the tenons at about 11:50 I saw those big curves and I thought, what kind of joint is this? Then I realized, it was just gabbaage.

[@TheLpjoe]

Just remember Matt, the camera adds 10 minutes! You still amaze me with that bowtie at WWW, finished precisely on time.

[@TheSteveAS]

Matt’s a trooper for cutting all those mortises with the crappy Triton chisels. Bet he couldn’t wait for the cameras to turn off so he could switch back to his REAL chisels. Project turned out nice though.

[@GameTrailerGuru]

You have to be a trooper to use anything from Triton. I regret buying my router.

[@afrenchydownunder]

More like a bedside workbench :D

[@iainf6]

Matt 👏👏👏👏👏👏♿

[@Kreith32]

What s sweet sidetable. Love it. Cheers Arne from german #kreith32

[@Greg-fs8np]

That's an, Interesting table with angled joinery, BUT, cutting those tenons on the table saw using the dado stack was downright scary. How about making another video showing a safer way, maybe with a jig offering more solid support?

[@johnkyllonen2749]

That tablesaw cut of the angled tenon looked a little dangerous Matt...maybe a little warning about that?

[@melcomc19]

I really enjoyed watching the video, but sorry, this is a stool for giants :-)

[@Carl-LaFong1618]

why is there a Maynard Krebs sticker on the bench.

[@giovannipetitti1588]

Share on Facebook 👍💯💯👏👏👏👏♥️

[@tigertigerpantherfox3714]

This build reminds me of the mini Stonehenge from Spinal Tap kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3K7q61-gp2tgtk at 2:20 in the link but also 16:20 in Matts video.

[@robertopereira9418]

👋👋👋👍

[@DannybFlat01]

Craftsmanship...

[@GameTrailerGuru]

The handles and that twist to lower and raise the router is legit the worst thing you guys could have ever done. Mine locked up all the time so it just gets stuck at a height and it's so slow even when it does work. The handles are super uncomfortable. Worst buy I have ever made for my shop. And I bought master craft tools.

[@jamesmoore5603]

Taking a arch out of the bottom to make 4 feet will be easier on the floors and will level easier on uneven floors.

[@charleshanfman]

Not the best work I’ve seen you do, but it’s knock down so you can easily utilize that wood for a different project in the future when you get tired of it.

[@BossmanEight]

A jig saw?!! Seriously???

[@Harris4465]

He never said "crotch"

[@christobar]

all the sound effects show Matt has been spending too much time around the kids

[@joycemiller4716]

Just advertising

[@reforzar]

Joyce Miller you are on Triton’s page. And I’m pretty sure an entire project was built.
