I've seen this video before. But after watching the collaboration videos with Nick and April I had to come back and see it again. I had forgotten how you used the router for this. It was a great reminder.

[@Huck249]

Nice project, Jay. Should last for decades.

[@JayBates]

+Earl Davidson Thanks Earl. I do appreciate it.

[@christ9359]

This video is great for beginning wood workers. It's a simple project, but your attention to detail and technique are something to aspire to.

[@hermankopinga]

Love your use of Sound FX :) The Mario coin sound gets me every time. Thanks for showing your work and use of Sketchup. The note about remembering the maximum capacity of your longest clamp was an inspiring eye for detail.

[@JohnHeisz]

Thoroughly enjoyable build, Jay. The table looks great!

[@JayBates]

+John Heisz Thank you very much, John. I stole your "slide in clips from the side" idea on this one so I put your website on the wall in one of them. Took quite a while to figure out how to do that. Do you use a plugin for your editor or just specify the movement?

[@JohnHeisz]

Jay Bates Mine are all cropped and keyframed manually, so pretty time consuming. It is an interesting effect, though.

[@memilanuk]

Love the extra extension on the back of the dado miter board to house the bit for safety and act as a dust shroud. Awesome!

[@learnerlearns]

Bravo Sir! You have been studying and practicing and progressing as a craftsman. Your attention to grain orientation, especially rift-sawn glue-ups for the legs, shows you're getting into elite category. I like your "shroud" idea for tenons too! Clever! The elegant results speak for themselves, although I have no doubt you will continue to evolve. It's a great pleasure watching you grow and succeed. Best Wishes!

[@JayBates]

+Learner-Learns Thank you for the kind words. I appreciate it.

[@matthewflannery9978]

nice one! the sound effects and the olde tymey photos at the end were a bonus.

[@Chris_connolly_comedian]

Construction grade lumber, skill and a bit of stain, now we got a stew cookin! Great build.

[@fixitwithzim]

I'm learning something new from your builds every time I watch. Thanks man for another great one!

[@AwesomeWoodThings]

+zimsjeep Same here!

[@JayBates]

+zimsjeep Glad to hear that :)

[@bwbark]

Jay, nice project! Love the use of the "br-eye" wax. :) But I have to say it never ceases to amaze me when someone like yourself takes the time and energy to build a project, film it, edit it and put it out there at no cost to the viewer and the only comment some idiot can make is about a light switch, a floor transition or a air return in the background! This is why I love my dog, she never makes stupid comments like that. Keep up the good work!!

[@JayBates]

+Bruce B Thank you for letting me know how it's pronounced. I think all the receptacle plate cover comments are because I mentioned it first on my Instagram post the day before :)

[@ZacJones]

That table looks great, I like how easy it went together!

[@CarlJacobson]

Excellent build Jay, the table looks great.

[@RenaissanceWW]

Watching your videos makes me want to buy a Domino. That's a significant statement from a hand tool geek like me! Nice work Jay.

[@dazlarg]

Jay I'm a big fan of your work, I've recently got into woodworking after building myself a workshop last year and I'm hoping to build some interesting and creative furniture. Your videos are always so concise and clear and a great watch... So thanks to you jay .. Your inspirational my friend.. Keep em coming!

[@JayBates]

+dazlarg Thank you for your kind words and feedback. Thanks for watching :)

[@jbb5470]

Nice build Jay. Turned out very nice and something that I believe I could tackle. Thanks for your video, easy to follow your steps!

[@GuysShop]

Nice project Jay. You make it look so darn easy!

[@JayBates]

Simple processes. :)

[@AlexSlarve]

Benn watching a lot of your videos, really cool stuff, and really nice production quality. I'm glad to see someone making so much work out of construction grade lumber!

[@jasontrattles]

amazing skills ..and such a tidy workshop.. well put together film

[@David-fv7zg]

Nice numbering system. Saves me a lot of headaches in the future. Thanks!

[@KRColson]

Beauty of a job! Well done. I enjoyed watching very much.

[@joseporcayo8518]

Best tutorial I've seen! thank you for explaining the details as you went along

[@aceoft3482]

Thanks Jay! It was great watching the previous sketchup video and then getting the payoff with the build video afterward. The king of 2x10 furniture!

[@JayBates]

+Elijah Taylor Thanks Elijah. I appreciate the feedback.

[@civ8458]

Awesome job! That came out very good!

[@MrRsg99]

Jay, really beautiful table. You make all your projects look too easy! Thank toy for sharing and please continue!

[@JayBates]

+Bob Gellenbeck You're very welcome Bob. Thanks for watching.

[@tlawless001]

Dude I'm super jealous of your workshop, it looks so damn nice

[@garyknight8616]

Looks great. nice job selecting the grain.

[@countrysideworkshop]

You make mortise and tenon look way easier than most other creators that post videos on it.

[@JayBates]

+Countryside Workshop It's a very similar process as creating tongue and groove joinery on the table saw. Very simple when broken down into simple processes.

[@countrysideworkshop]

+Jay Bates mortise and tenon is easy! Just saying that the way you teach it makes it very simple. Most people don't use the same shoulder depth on all fours sides. A lot of the time you see a different shoulder depth on the longs shoulders than the short shoulders.

[@thatstofunny1111]

Jay, I am such a huge fan. you have really inspired me to do a lot in my shop. I have yet to make any videosbut I have been watching tours for the last couple of years. so much thought has to be put into your videos. I hope you continue to do this for a long time. thanks for the inspiration. Ohh by the way Love this table!! now back to building my shop. take care

[@JayBates]

+Old Southern Workshop Est 2015 Thank you for the feedback!! :)

[@pedrosoto1253]

Great video, great build. I loved that you first did it in Sketchup, that's what I usually do. And using pine, I think I'm going to do the same for our home and later when I've got more money, or rests from another build, upgrade to more expensive woods. Your work is getting better and better Jay. Pedro.

[@evoashes]

Your sound effects always crack me up! Great looking table!

[@MichaelLawing]

I really dig the three-shot split. Awesome build/video, Jay!

[@SpencerPetersen]

I loved this project, especially with the Sketch Up video right before it. Great work!

[@jennings5250]

You do good work, Jay! And your videos are produced really well. Keep up the good work!

[@giljimenez482]

awesome table. love that you show your SketchUp process then the work. thanks Jay

[@JayBates]

+GIL JIMENEZ Thanks!

[@TheShavingWoodWorkshop]

Great build Jay, very good explanations and details for this project.

[@JayBates]

+The ShavingWood Workshop Thanks man. Much appreciated.

[@jazzman1626]

Love the sound of the rapid mallet tapping lol.

[@JeremyMcMahan]

Love it. The tip on the "dust chute" is awesome.

[@JayBates]

+Jeremy McMahan Thanks :)

[@AndrewSetters]

Nice project Jay. Been watching a long time and your work just keeps getting better.

[@JayBates]

Thank you Andrew.

[@OneManBandWoodworks]

Brilliant Jay as always. Both your videos and your woodwork skills

[@JayBates]

+One Man Band Woodworking Thank you.

[@moyperezwoodshop1722]

Awesome work Jay. That Briwax looks great on the table

[@Jay2525Jay]

I like your style of video taping. Great router jig. Thank you for sharing the build.

[@braytonbailey3782]

I love your approach, and I am building an outside sideboard sort of modeled on what you did for the legs. Great video and website.

[@joelegrand5903]

Saw you on April's video, I picked up a few things I can use on the Farmhouse table for my daughter wedding.

[@CMRWoodworks]

Excellent work Jay. Table looks very nice.

[@JayBates]

+CMR Woodworks | Chris McDowell Thanks Chris.

[@Andys12169]

Another awesome build Jay

[@DesignBuildExecute]

Very nice, Jay! The dust shroud is a great idea.

[@fabledrides]

Love the pine work you do I build with pine often and its nice to know you can get a great looking piece with it. If you mess something up just get another board, your mistakes don't make you broke.

[@JayBates]

+Kyle Jenkins True. Also, mortise and tenon joinery is super easy to fix if you screw up. Just glue more material in the mortise or on the tenon and cut the joint again.

[@abelnieto432ify]

Love it man! That plung feature sure is nice, Ive never seen one with a button like that, Great job!

[@ranjdall]

Nice work jay. Looks great

[@69virgin1966]

Awesome job Jay! That looks fantastic. I like the way the stain you used makes the grain stand out. Keep up the great work. Take care and be safe Thanks for sharing Roy

[@JayBates]

+Roy Wrenn Thanks Roy.

[@craigpereira6381]

Great Build Jay, Love the table.

[@GlassImpressions]

Great build Jay! Loved to see the jig in action.

[@JayBates]

+Glass Impressions Thanks Andy. Much appreciated.

[@willemkossen]

Nice work. Your educational skill are very good

[@SL1800]

Nice project, great results. I really like the dust shroud, I have never seen anyone do that.

[@JayBates]

+Steve Lyde Glad you enjoyed it. I used to do it a lot more than I do now. It really helps a lot with dust control.

[@BrianMcCauleyDesign]

Nice work Jay. That router edge guide works great!

[@JayBates]

+Brian McCauley Nice!

[@Wordsnwood]

Great build. Loved how you varied the table decorations for those end shots. Those are great photos of you and your wife. Looks like you would make a good outlaw... ;-)

[@JayBates]

+wordsnwood hahaha. I've got the naturally pissed off expression. It was super easy for me to take that pic. Hard time getting my wife in character lol.

[@margaritistakiskailos]

Great table Jay ! I really enjoy watching your videos !!!

[@Patricksworkshop]

Great work Jay. The table looks great

[@JayBates]

Thanks Patrick. Where ya been?

[@ALLWORKNOPLAYnetwork]

OK cool. I gotta say very good craftsmanship Jay, your videos are also fun to watch man.

[@daly5]

I wish all youtube video's were as we'll put produced as yours. Excellent .

[@JayBates]

+daly5 Thank you for the kind words/feedback. Much appreciated.

[@peterfitzpatrick7032]

Initially, I was surprised you didn't embellish the top with a roundover or angle-cut ... but when I saw it finished , I realised it actually looked better without that... Jay, sometimes less is more... ☺️ From the Emerald Isle 😎👍☘️🍺

[@blackswanprepping8827]

That turned out really well, great job!

[@JayBates]

+Dutchhorse Thanks dude. I appreciate it.

[@gregkieser1157]

very nice work Jay.....the more I see people using that Domino machine the more I'm starting to believe....damn!

[@onlyinfresno]

Absolutely love this sofa table Jay! Thanks for sharing. I've yet to try mortise and tenon joinery in my woodworking ventures. This one looks like a perfect project to get my feet wet on! Thanks again for sharing. :)

[@JayBates]

+Tim Bruno Mortise and tenon joinery is quite simple with these techniques. Try it out a couple times on scrap 2x4's.

[@markevans3779]

Nice table and a really great tutorial... Thank you.

[@RSLWoodworking]

Great job as usual jay. Table looks great. Thx for the inspiration.

[@JayBates]

+Robert Lawrie You're very welcome. Thanks for watching.

[@LYLEWOLD]

like the very dramatic sound beats at the end to give this piece the drama it deserves. that part actually made me laugh. well done, on the whole project.

[@temtamtem]

i love the way you respect our time

[@bearkatwood6354]

Great editing as always, thanks for the show.

[@GnatManAllinCoIronWorks]

always love the followups on the SketchUp layouts. Love It.

[@JayBates]

+GnatMan Allin Thanks for the feedback!

[@thoperSought]

+GnatMan Allin definitely. it's really interesting to see the whole process, from design to finished product

[@chizipper32]

man that spruce moves all over the place when cutting, good job

[@adamquincey4371]

Excellent job, and a very nice piece... Cheers...

[@juanluiscardenas5817]

[@DaceyMark]

Super job! Great work man!

[@stormwind95]

That Table is rug-it looking. Im going to give this a try Vary Nice Job Jay

[@rvickner]

awesome work.. looks great

[@Rasproc]

I've always liked your videos Jay. But when I saw the Star Wars calendar hanging on your shop wall I started to love your videos.

[@JayBates]

+Aaron Eubank 32 days and 11 hours till Star Wars VII: www.howmanydaysuntilstarwars.com/

[@Rasproc]

Thanks!

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Nice build Jay, and the table looks great in your house.

[@JayBates]

+Jon Peters Art & Home Thank you Jon. I appreciate it.

[@CommanderCool76]

New to your channel. Thanks for the new technique. Love to see that winged wheel on your drawer fronts and hanging on the wall.

[@WesHamstra]

I have never tried mortise and tenon joinery. I usually just use pocket screws. you made it look so easy. I am going to make a jig like yours for my router. Great Video!

[@JayBates]

+Wes Hamstra (Wes Hamstra Woodworking) Thanks Wes. Mortise and tenon joints are actually pretty easy with a router and table saw.

[@rocky31186]

That crooked electrical outlet is killing me! Table turned out great!

[@terry2346]

Nice and sturdy! I have done some with cherry and it gets more patina every year!

[@Jamkevcr88]

Table looks awesome!!!

[@JayBates]

+Jamkevcr88 Thank you

[@AwesomeWoodThings]

Great instructional video. I especially like the "dust shroud" concept when you were using the dado blade. I'll be using that in the future for sure!

[@JayBates]

+Awesome Wood Things Thanks. It's very handy.

[@woodandmetalandstuffpauldo8561]

Nice work, looks awesome

[@sandersjones1577]

pretty nice table Jay

[@TheSiriusProject]

Nice job. Great video techniques.

[@MakeSomething]

Great tip on creating the dust shroud. Also beautiful table!

[@kenl5217]

+Make Something ya cool idea

[@JayBates]

+Make Something Thanks dude

[@RivertownWoodcraft]

Nice build Jay, I'm itching to try some mortise and tenons finally, this was a good motivator.

[@JayBates]

+Rivertown Woodcraft Glad to hear that. They are easier than you probably think.

[@angelicafrancoalvarez3447]

Thank you!!! I needed a tutorial for the hold down clips! :) Fantastic table :)!!!

[@HipsterCarpenter]

Great work Jay. I like how to don't always use expensive hardwood to show people you can build good furniture without it.

[@JayBates]

+VlogifyTrey Absolutely. As long as you follow good joinery techniques and pay attention to the grain in relation to wood movement you can make great things with pine.

[@hazbutler]

your videos are very creative, in all aspects. thanks

[@JayBates]

+hazbutler Thanks for the feedback :)

[@alsmith1025]

This came out great. Awesome video.

[@JayBates]
