will gluing every side of the joint cause any expansion issues? Curious if any twisting or warping happens since this will be outdoors and exposed to the elements. Unless the table is small enough to not be enough movement to matter?

[@user-qz5sx1iv2r]

Recently I made a bed for my son that used castle joints and I wish I had watched your video first. Your method is easy and nearly foolproof. Nice video.

[@thethirdman225]

As one who hates tablesaws, this is easy to do with a bandsaw. As a totally untrained kid, the castle joint was the first serious joint I ever made. I had never even seen one before. I figured it out for myself and made it with (some) low quality hand tools. It could have been a lot better but it was a great start.

[@Lutzboater]

The castle joints are perfect for this table. Well done and well instructed for we weekend sawdust makers. Thanks!!

[@DIYMontreal]

Many thanks!

[@normanbott]

Nice ! That's the best explanation of a "castle joint" I've seen. That Cedar looks really good with the chunky design.

[@mykhelderian]

Very nice. The joinery is something that only other woodworkers will fully appreciate and I'm sure we all do. Great job.

[@Wordsnwood]

Turned out great! Clearly explained.

[@jameskachan]

What a great build video. Thoughtfully presented, nicely explained, well shot and edited. Really great.

[@carasmussen27]

thank you. I have working on making this joint.

[@billm4560]

That turned out awesome Marie! 👌 That’s a strong joint for sure! Thank you for sharing!

[@marthieschonstein2037]

wow,,, im still very new to table saw,,, and yes with my newly and first play accendent i am very scrayed

[@chrisweigand1817]

absolutely perfect video on how to do castle joints. I have been making cutting boards for years but always wanted to learn how to make furniture but the joinery has always deterred me. over the last two or three months I've gotten serious about it. Couple times a week I would look at a video on basic joinery, hoping it would grab me, but I could never find one that inspired me, or seem to be doable to me for my first table base until I saw this one. Early last night, I went for it. Following this video step-by-step, which was very easy to do, but you get to the important points right away. There's not a bunch a jib jab about stuff that has nothing to do with the project. It's just precise and to the point and wanted. My table base came out absolutely perfect. And I am now hooked on making furniture. Thanks to you and this video. Well, I should say the second table base came out perfect. The first leg I made on the first base I hugged out all the material and moved onto the second leg and the third leg and the fourth leg just going off my marks. Obviously, I paused your video and missed the part that makes total sense about the importance of not moving the fence..ooops. Needless to say everything was off just a little bit, but the second go I watch the entire video from start to finish and then went back and follow the steps and I couldn't be happier with the results. Thank you very much.

[@AaronGeller]

Love the saw dust trick! Really finishes things off nicely.

[@paulcurtis4015]

Excellent! Love this, will add it to my list of ‘must make it one day’. Thanks Marie.

[@EricAndMirna]

What a beautiful table!!! I’ve been wanting to try my hand at castle joints and am in the process of putting together a counter for the front desk at my business and this is the PERFECT design! Thank you for your inspiration!

[@doneagle8]

Great video...been planning a table with crown joints for the deck outside...I"ve never done these joints before so comming accross your tutorial was excellent timing...and has inspired me to get "crack a lackin'" Thanks again.

[@jewdd1989]

I’m so happy and relieved you’re showing the castle joint on the table saw only! As a matter of fact I’d love to see plenty more joints from the table saw if you’re willing to demonstrate?! No shame in that whatsoever, I like chisels etc. but like you I’d rather have a more easy and consistent method to utilize over hand cutting each and every joint.

[@MarkPrimavera]

Very elegant joints Marie! I too will put it on my "I want to try it" list. Thank you for sharing.

[@dellsdiy]

Very nicely done! Easy to follow video and explanations as you guide us through the build.

[@basicbiblestudy7201]

Good job nice explanation thank you for sharing these castle top joinery good job by for now I look forward to hear from you God-bless

[@peterhladky5481]

[@DIYMontreal]

Thanks, appreciate it!

[@awlthatwoodcrafts8911]

Beautiful table, Marie, and a great video on how to make a castle joint. Yours will now be one of the handful of videos that come up when you search for "castle joint". I love the look of the joint as well as it's inherent strength. I plan on using castle joints for my workbench, if I ever get around to making it.

[@leejohnson7293]

This is awesome! I now know what I am going to do with the 4-4x4x10' cedar posts I have been holding onto for years now.

[@user-fd9mq7ub7v]

I saw this at the store cost a hit start searching I must say you did it perfectly just I don’t have the power tools only got circular saw but I shall try it one day

[@SujMenon]

[@infinityvideoprod]

I've been watching your channel from the beginning. You've come a long way! Very nice build, amazing joinery!

[@brentfrench752]

The table is awesome! You made it look so easy. I’m actually making a table now, but the top overhangs the base, but maybe I’ll try your table next time as i like the look of the castle joints. Good job!

[@simonrano8072]

it is easy with a correctly set up table saw with all the sliding module (and the planner and probably the miter saw that are "just" quietly mentionned)

[@jorgefernandez8016]

Nice table

[@coplock6689]

You're very talented. Great video. Thanks for sharing.
