Our Most Challenging Build To Date (Sunburst Veneer Table in Texas Pecan)

[@Hatchmade]

I really appreciate that you are a furniture shop/maker with a KZbin channel not a content creator with a furniture shop.

[@ZachAshcraft]

Just in awe at the complexity behind this. Came out looking incredible.

[@seanobrien7169]

You say you're not great with math...Man, the math involved in this project hurts my head! Impressive, even with the aid of design software.

[@u8qu1tis]

Straight out of the 70's

[@datsunmom]

Great job Andy. while watching I was reminded of a tool quilters use to check patterns. They use a wall device to hang and move around pieces to get the right look. Its nice because you are not looking at an angle. Keep up the good work.

[@brettguthrie4705]

You should be proud of yourself and Robert. It is a beautiful Table true craftsmanship. Cheers from Western Australia.

[@SRM_NZ]

I love watching master craftsmen 'create'......

[@mattg6262]

Seeing that jointer at work is extremely satisfying. Very nice build. Beautiful work.

[@antsquirly7654]

The base doesn't do a thing for me but the top is a masterpiece.

[@stretch668]

the angled flush trim jig at 3:50 was so simple but so smart. going to use that one sometime. awesome work

[@dennisatkins9837]

Your complexity increases with each project. I would like to see customer reaction.

[@tonybowers9490]

At 27:10 it finally clicked in little noggin' what your goal was with the matching grain. WOW. I'm in awe. That is amazing. Thanks for sharing. And, thanks for being real about the challenge and mistakes. None of us is perfect. I sure am not. But, you know, it is encouraging to see you go through the process and deal with issues as they come up.

[@MrJdubbya36]

Amazing work as usual. Would be very cool to see how you finished the edge too. To have the veneer continue over the edge was the finishing touch on a true piece of art. Would almost be a shame to use this as a table.

[@SawyerDesign]

That turned out amazing. Awesome work!

[@nickkowal6537]

Not to denigrate your other work but this is amongst my favourite videos and pieces you've made.

[@chriscurran4936]

Gorgeous, really came together once the finish was applied.

[@zephyr1408]

Andy & Robert your assistant apprentice! Hats off taking a bow ! Well done my men!

[@montewoods4766]

Very nice and well done

[@vanillajustin]

Wow... just... wow! Absolutely, incredibly gorgeous. I'm typically not a fan of veneer, but the way that you "continued the grain" with the vertical grain on the veneered edge is SO GOOD. 🙌

[@freddyramirez1820]

Can also be OCD , because none of the grain matches, its just vertical grain.

[@tylerwhite8429]

Not sure that base is quite my style but that top is a stunner, well done.

[@larryfisher7056]

Great looking design and execution guys.....love how real life sometimes gets in the way....gotta go clean the couch, presumably before mom gets home..lol.

[@markjones7045]

amazing work. i'm glad matt talked you into the whole youtube thing

[@danielattencio579]

Enough admiring your hard work. Somewhere someone is thinking, he could use 200 tables just like that one. What would you say? I imagine they would be easier after the prototype. But it could also make you crazy. Nice work. Danny

[@wcarlhepker4806]

You run an extremely impressive shop!! This table is an extremely impressive example of it!!

[@JimG31547]

What a great build. The table is a show stopper for sure.

[@Ivo_Serra]

Just another demonstration of great craftsmanship with the amazing ability of always staying humble. You're always an inspiration, Andy! Thank you for all your work and dedication

[@xris785]

Stunning work, in particular the edges of the top really make it stand out as a piece of art.

[@patrickdavies6514]

Love the top. Love the shape of the base. I think had it been veneered similar to the top, it would have been astonishing. Not so with the half round thing. The top is classical joinery. The bottom is now cheap tiki bar.

[@henrimercier5068]

That was just the coolest table ever, my mind changes about veneer when I see your videos.

[@deniseallen-blake2557]

What a beautiful work of art❣️ You do such wonderful work❣️ God bless 🙏

[@Lorddanielrushton371]

Great job on the table. Beautifully done on the top.

[@jimbecker5675]

STUNNING table top!

[@sullivanwagner1996]

Two words, incredible!

[@johna.9742]

That is one pretty sweet looking table.

[@judebrown4103]

Well what a fantastic job, just blown away by how beautiful it is! You got a rare find in Robert, didn't you? It really is great to see how well you work together, it seems like you are completely in sync with each other. How you worked that great big piece of board through the Oliver to cut those curves was amazingly co-ordinated. You certainly created a complex design and executed it superbly. I've run out of superlatives to express how impressed I am, very well done both of you. 👍🙏

[@williamellis8993]

I was thinking the same about Robert. He fits into the scheme of things like he has always been there.

[@mrjc4949]

Aloha from Maui. Great job on the table. 🤙🤙 Shakas !!

[@dgax65]

That is absolutely incredible work. It's one of those pieces of furniture that is almost too beautiful to ever use. I would never want to put anything on it that would hide the sunburst pattern.

[@hal0hal0mc]

That Oliver bandsaw is such a beast ripping through all that material and it's always one of my favorite things to see in the shop. Whereas my 1/2 HP struggles past 5 inches (still love my baby bandsaw though; extremely useful). Complicated and stunning build Andy!

[@jessjulian9458]

Unbelievably great work. That is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

[@dylansousa5571]

Andy keep up the great work

[@larrykelly2838]

Looks really nice

[@Palinkat]

Ah amazing piece Andy!!!!!

[@ApexWoodworks]

Andy, outstanding design and execution, my friend! It was great watching you spraying the finish; I take it you're really happy with how your Fuji Spray MPX-30 spray gun's working out? Your work is second to none and a testament to your drive and skills. Can hardly wait to see what you'll be making next!

[@arvidjohansson3120]

This table turned out amazing. Considering 200 hours and all the costs of running a business this table must have cost the client 8-10k

[@randybourdon2791]

Unbelievable build Andy and Robert, congratulations on this one guys!

[@mjfister]

Hi Andy, very nice and especially with the veneer pattern - complements the unique base style! Always enjoy your videos as one pro to another... Best Regards

[@johna.9742]

Love it, love your videos and always, always look forward to the next project.

[@mikezen2052]

Master craft sir; well done.

[@coreyshortland2074]

Clicked on and instant thumbs up. Super detailed bench top and the base is a really cool unusual shape. Well done guys

[@josepcb2882]

Buenísimo Felicidades .un saludo desde Barcelona Catalonia

[@kiwdwks]

Wow...awesome work! Complicated build for sure...

[@jerryrathbone2168]

Fantastic job

[@WTCreations]

Lots of work, great build and process, stunning result. Not much else to say.

[@robertwalker9625]

200 shop hours and it shows Andy and Bob. The table is incredible and the top is over the top beautiful. You should be proud of this project, an amazing amount of prep work, trial and error and the table is a show stopper and one of a kind. What kind of finish did you use Andy, lacquer or polyurethane? Cheers from this old retired coot living the dream in Tennessee.

[@jaywuchner9342]

Simply awesome

[@kamilmacinski5691]

Beautiful

[@onehandedmaker]

Once again love your work Andy

[@robertajohnson3671]

Stunning

[@AndrewR74]

Incredible work Andy.

[@andrzej3511]

Amazing tabletop, phenomenal! The method of veneering in the final impression brings to mind more marquetry than ordinary veneer. Great idea: repeating centrically mirrored sheets. I don't like the base. In my opinion, it is too heavy, too massive, as if "from another table". For this top, I imagine filigree, traditional legs, slightly angled. With a traditional, not too thick frame. Try to check it (the top is easy to unscrew?), maybe I'm just hinting you an idea for a lot of bucks?

[@briankurilla8474]

Always look forward to the new videos- this one did not disappoint! Side note: will you be selling the black trucker hat or is that old? Love it.

[@sofianebenhadj60]

very very good job😘😘😘

[@seanthompson6720]

I see you are using the Phillip Morley method of gluing veneer

[@benjaqsonworkshop9974]

I wouldn't be surprised if I came across it as an exhibit in an art gallery. There is so much art, beauty, design and skill in this piece I hope it is valued by its new owner. Thank you for sharing this journey.

[@Asha.woodworking]

Absolutely stunning work ! So enjoyable to watch your process. Was it epoxy that you've used to glue the veneer down to the plywood substrate?

[@williamellis8993]

To say that table is absolutely fantastic and beautiful doesn't do it justice. Great job! Were you doing a climb cut on the veneer to prevent chip out? Bill

[@dakotamax2]

Looks great, guys! Will the client want wire management grommets on the surface?

[@twinsmm1]

Sweet!

[@Ray_Sellner]

You guys did a great job. Tape dispenser might be helpful.

[@jwpark74]

that's incredible

[@bueller98S3]

WOW!

[@flyboy6876]

Love the top not so crazy about the bottom, but I am not the client

[@sethhamilton5824]

What size nail are you using to attach the "slats"? Very cool table!

[@MrTexasDan]

That veneer top is beautiful. Nice work guys! ... but saw-cutting the veneer looked pretty hairy. Lots of fingers close to the blade.

[@danielcouture7901]

Reely nice job .I would like working whit you you make the kind off job I want to learn ( sorry for my english my mother tongue is french)

[@adamchesis7443]

I don't get where people decided it was a good idea to tape veneer with blue painters tape, but its amusing

[@AndyRawls]

I actually agree. It’s always a pain getting it off when it comes out of the bag. I need a proper dispenser for my gummed veneer tape.

[@adamchesis7443]

@@AndyRawls they make them but you don't need it you can just cut it and use a wet sponge to get it on there, its much easier, I just run the veneer tape through the wide belt and it takes it right off

[@jakublipiec3726]

0:37 why is your whetstone broken?

[@kbulman9271]

Wow!

[@Martinonskis]

Andy, who makes the bending plywood used in the base?

[@The_Osprey]

He called it "bendy board." Google is your friend.

[@ZachAshcraft]

His last video was on making it

[@shanerobinson1133]

Looks the bollocks. 👍👍

[@cowboyjudd69]

I like your son's name, i just realized i sound like a creeper, sorry. I say that because my name is also Judd. Awesome project!!!

[@mohd-obid]

👍

[@wes_d]

Safety third!

[@YamahaYZFR6RJ05]

The end product looks amazing but.... are you sure it´s a good idea to let the child run around barefoot in a workshop and the not tucked in shirt while flush trimming the veneer could end up in an unwanted appendix surgery.

[@reformedmrsinn9629]

Great craftsmanship. I personally don't like the look of it. I think it looks like it came straight out of the 80s.
