One of a kind | Rotten Tree Stump Turned Into Eye-Catching Table

[@kurk1701a]

Great work table looks fantastic. Option -- maybe split the wooden oval in half and route out a channel to fit the glass in the middle glue together, add a trem to the outside of the oval to hide the join. To give the top a cleaner line.

I always like to see wood refurbished instead of thrown away. Nice addition.

[@bradleytuckwell4881]

I don’t think I’ve seen a glass table with a timber boarder before but I really like how it’s turned out.

[@jeremygreenwood8501]

A great result. A triumph of workmanship and creativity.

[@theidlehandsworkshop3884]

That really turned out great and you're a talented maker that definitely has a way of making your projects not only interesting, but also a learning experience. Between yourself and David Stanton this evening I've learned a lot more about my own router and how I can better use it.

[@To-Lo77]

Perfect, just the way it ended up. I wouldn't change 1 thing with the end result. Great project.

[@zapa1pnt]

Looks fantastic and the happy accident, on the ring and feet finish, blends wonderfully with the stump. 😁✌🖖

[@PaleRider559]

Really like the way the top turned out... the wooden frame makes it look hella nicer than just plain glass. But I think I would have gone with a smaller oval wooden base, or, at the least, sunk the cross pieces all the way in, so that the top of the stump was flush with the ground. That being said, the entire table still looks amazing :D

[@zanecourie3545]

Mooi Jean. It looks beautiful. Cape Town talent at its finest

[@TheTrullGallery]

Another nice job! One thing I've learned about trying to match colors - testing on scrap wood. Saves having to re-sand an entire piece. Keep up the great work!

[@mandyleeson1]

It worked out really well and looks great. I probably would have gone for a circular look, but that's small peanuts. 👏🏼

[@stephanberger3476]

Looking forward to the Hot Wheels one!

[@dqauto500]

Can’t wait to see the hot wheels one! I have several of them and I’d like to build a display for them . I hate to admit it but I usually buy 2. One to play with and one in the package 😹

[@realgoose]

Jean, looks awesome. I thought you would have split the oval frame and sandwiched the glass between the two pieces. No glue necessary. As it stands, I think you may want to flip the glass top over so the wood is on top and the silicone is hidden.

[@dieselrugg]

same. I was thinking of a sandwich.

[@bobdove6068]

The only thing I would change is where you put it when completed. My loungeroom would be a really great location 😂

[@maurysnicolasfernandezlope9326]

Excellent transformation

[@larryvergon6740]

Perfect, just as it is!

[@ShadowzGSD]

turned out well, if it was me though i would turn the glass top over so the wood ring was on the top.

[@jethomas232]

That is just BEAUTIFUL..!!

[@bryandowdey1779]

A unique and very impressive result! Great job!

[@scorpianspirit5124]

I'm impressed ! I like it just the way it is. Very nice job !

[@larrybishop468]

Double thumbs up

[@rolandgdean]

LOVE THESE PROJECT VIDEOS! Great work sir! See you just now!

[@doubleedgedsword6352]

It's great, I'd love to have one in my house!

[@bergpolarbear]

Looks nice as it is though I would have gone with a solid oval base instead of the 'Christmas Tree' cross feet. I think it would have looked more professional. Also surprised you did not arch the feet a bit to prevent wobbling later on.

[@markweiner4430]

Perfect as is.

[@lugdunet]

Great job as usual. If I had to do this job, I would have made the wooden oval in two parts with a groove inside to put the glass. Then I would have assembled the two parts to lock everything together. easy to say but not easy to do though

[@billboy7390]

I think you did a very good job.

[@ericdalbert133]

Very beautiful table indeed ! Great Job ! I would have done one thing slightly different : I would have gone full depth on the cross over suport so the buttom of the stamp would touch the floor

[@docghines]

It looks fantastic.

[@stuartcraigon2003]

Fantastic result!

[@lemmony0fresh]

two thumbs up! Looks fantastic!

[@robandsharonseddon-smith5216]

Always a pleasure to watch you work. Lot of short grain in that ring but it should be good as the silicone will support it. Love yhe belt sander. I've copied that and it's so good!

[@MrPatdeeee]

Awesome kind Sir. Always ❤it! Keep it going.

[@waynespringer3320]

Looks awesome. Turned out great.

[@johncarter9067]

Raised to another level great job love your work it's given me a lot of ideas keep it up

[@gardenrailroading]

Beautiful

[@expatmoose]

You always amaze me, beautiful it is

[@fudpukker]

Nice table Jean, I am sure you could have used the glass as a pattern template with a bushing on your router for the outside. Wood trim with silicone looks a bit MEH. agree with some other comments, either upside down (maybe chamfer inside edge to keep level with glass) or just plain glass. Good work though, keep it up

[@Theexplorographer]

Great results!

[@usaf4dbt]

Thank you

[@briturner11]

that is incredibly cool. love it.

[@Toyotajunkie]

The table turned out great! It helped me to buy a good natural bristel brush for applying finishes. Maybe that would help? Thanks for the video!

[@HobbyHalloween]

Well, I know you asked a lot of questions, about this and that... I know it helps for KZbin engagement... and TBH, I do this with my projects... at some point you bring those to a close. As it stands now, it is a beautiful transformation from garbage to treasure and something that I would proudly have in my own home... Consider this project complete and enjoy your new coffee table! Cheers.

[@stenalbertsen2440]

Great stuff 😊👍

[@ApolloWoodwork]

Looks great but it would look better in my house🤣

[@fredtew4162]

Looks great .

[@dqauto500]

Love it!

[@MrGeroth]

I like just the stump and plain glass. Just me.

[@vmoutsop]

Great project, table looks really good but the 1970's called and they want their wood glass trim back.

[@gavinalmeida1994]

Nice job bud.looks good

[@c.a.g.1977]

Well done, Jean! It looks great! 10:24 - brilliant!

[@pamelagreen8543]

I like it!

[@baconsoda]

I think that is absolutely outstanding... well done Sir. Best Wishes, Brendan.

[@imaginationingrained]

I like how it turned out! If I could change one thing, I would either keep the cross on the bottom, with a oval ring around the outside to match the top, or maybe just a simple wooden oval base with a routed out recess in the exact shape of the trunk to look like it was sprouting out, and up in between two ovals of different sizes. Keep it up!! 👍

[@JDeWittDIY]

Those are both good ideas!

[@paulmorton5542]

awesome

[@KarelRode]

Lekker man. Dit lyk puik.

[@MCsCreations]

Amazing, Jean! Really beautiful work!!! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@ivangreat133]

Turned out really nice. Fantastic job and an inspiration to watch 👍

[@a..d5518]

Kudos on an excellent idea, very imaginative. Beautiful result, from a rather unattractive material source.

[@JKAW]

Do you have a video for the belt sander jig? Very clever

[@mrsdjwildcat]

Looks great. Unrelated question, but since you have changed your shop and have had some time to work in the shop after replacing the all in 1 workbench, which do you prefer? The reason I'm asking is that I have a small shop that I'm going to be improving soon and am torn between all in 1 vs components.

[@WoodshopJunkies]

I will be going back to a all in one setup but an adaptable, modular version.

[@mrsdjwildcat]

@Woodshop Junkies Yeah, I watched the video where you were building a couple of the modular pieces. I was thinking that's what you were using already.

[@owenvanbruchem1863]

You should always stain a offcut before you do the main piece.. I can speak from experience 😅

[@samoxenham]

Looking at your drill sanding method, you might be interested in Izzy Swans hand held spindle sanders for the drill. It’s a simple project and a great addition to a small shop kzbin.info/www/bejne/maeZdWxupK6fis0

[@tuesboomer1623]

Looks great!
