The Ambassadors table, part 2

[@nicolek4076]

It rather brings home how quickly time flies for me. You, along with other woodworkers on KZbin, such as Matt Cremona, have young children who, for me, seem to have been born only very recently. You seem to have a budding cameraman there - it's always a wonderful moment when you discover how helpful your children can be.

Always a pleasure watching ur craftsmanship Joey...love dat u share ur thought process during ur build...thank u brother

[@theothermarshal]

Your solution to the need for extensions is great... based upon this I am now a new follower & am looking forward to more content. And, props to your 4yr old camera man!

[@ErrBuzz]

A big huge HI from Kazakhstan, Joey. I have just finished binge-watching all your videos. To say I'm impressed is to say nothing at all. After finishing one of your videos I found myself frustrated having realized that there were no more of your videos that I hadn't watched. Absolutely love your work and your inspiring approach not only to what you do, but to life in general. Keep it up!

[@KingPostTimberWorks]

Thank you!

[@PassionforWoodworking]

Coming along nice. Congrats on landing a high profile build like this. Hope it is only 1 of many to come for you.

[@jbb5470]

Coming along very nice Joey! Will be looking forward to the rest of the build. (and other future builds)

[@TheLindsay720]

This is really impressive. Such a daunting undertaking and you’re smashing it.

[@drmkiwi]

That must have felt good seeing the table coming together so well. LOve the base and the thickness of the top. Didn;t it jjst come alive when you were putting the finish on. Good stuff, thanks. Cheers, David

[@KingPostTimberWorks]

Thanks David

[@Finewoodworkingofsc]

I love the design of this table, especially the profile of the legs. Very nice. Glad you've got a qualified cameraman there, too. Great job little man.

[@KingPostTimberWorks]

Thank you

[@matthewsmade]

Looks great. Could you put the runner stops in the rebate so you don't see them or need an extra rebate.

[@rodmackinnon8497]

Wow, what a wicket project . . . hard to pick a highlight, all awesome. Cheers, from under a snowbank!

Joey, Justin here, Thanks for the shout out. Tables looking great and I like how you did the one stopper off the edge of the runner.

[@KingPostTimberWorks]

Cheers Justin!

[@mjfister]

Happy New Year Joey - a wonderful 'commission' and so nice to team your skill with such nice materials. Looking very nice so far and those extensions really came out well. Looking forward to the next video installment... best, Mike

Hi can you tell us what tool belt or pouch you using min 2:10 Thanks

[@edwardquan]

Lovely work as usual - belated season's greetings Joey!

[@nathansilver9190]

Hey Joey, I love the way your project is turning out. Fantastic job as usual. I have a question, I am getting ready to build a table myself for a client, and it has extensions also. My question is how much tolerance did you allow for the runner and the guide? Also, aew the washers to keep the runners from moving out of alignment? Thanks again, I love your channel.

[@KingPostTimberWorks]

So I made the tounge slide in the groove as tightly as possible but still being free enough to pull. Too much slop here will allow the extension to sag at full length. The washers hold each of the runners to the next so as the tounges don't full out of the grooves.

[@sanjaysami4315]

Fabulous work Joey !

[@fisheater844]

Is that a foam brush you used on the top ? What brand , Thanks, really enjoying the details in your filming.

[@fabienlegall1199]

One step closer to the big day !!! It looks awesome mate !

[@craftsmanfollower8004]

대단하십니다. 아주 잘 보고 있습니다. 다음에 기회가 되면 이런 테이블 꼭 한번 만들어 보고 싶네요~^^ You did really great job. I hope i'll make like that extending table later. That is why your video is helping me very well. Thank you~

Looking awesome, as usual. 👍🏽 Your son did an extraordinary job on the camera work, considering his age. 👌🏽 Wishing you and your family a very happy and prosperous 2020, mate.

[@KingPostTimberWorks]

Thank you, and to you also

[@franciskupper62]

...great stuff!...enjoy the easy way you explain things....one question...would you have stronger joining seams, on the two top end pieces, if you had used biscuits, (and 4 or 5 of them).instead of just 3 dowels in each seam?

[@KingPostTimberWorks]

So the strength from a well jointed pair of boards with adequate glue is very strong. The point of dowels,biscuits or dominoes is to help keep the tops of the boards in plan to maintain an even overall thickness of the glue up. Remember people have been gluing boards up for centuries with out dowels etc. It just makes life easier when flattening out the panel.

[@matthewclemente420]

looking real nice Joe . Thanks!

[@Binny2020]

Very nice Joey, love watching your vids. Inspiring as always.

[@aussiefreediver]

Loving the in depth series on this build. Quick question, when you're doing table tops do you make a point to have the grain running the same way on every board? I've gone for aesthetics in the past and have had tear out issues when planing on the glue lines. Thanks for all your videos, love them!

[@ed3010]

could've just been luck or that he changed direction. Personally, I'd have used a belt sander with a rough belt (if you have one) therefore you don't have to worry about the grain direction at all. However, a plane is brilliant when the grain direction is in favor. I'd use a plane if it was just one piece of timber.

[@PeteHansen13]

Great stuff man! Can’t wait to see it all buttoned up!

[@acraig5075]

It's looking absolutely beautiful!

[@brianhackett9649]

Man, this is looking GOOD!

[@KingPostTimberWorks]

Thanks

[@g45h96]

Why didn't you just measure and stop the key channel so the washer could act as the stopper as well?

[@grahamparsons6620]

Did not quite compute how big this table is until you put the top on and extended it, man it's looking damn fine and you found some beaut timber as well 👍👍👍👍

[@KingPostTimberWorks]

Thanks

[@JT-hw6mq]

Awesome! I cant wait for the next video.

[@svtelos4726]

Tip: a laminate trimmer with a carbide bit, will trim up those brass feet nicely.

[@rauldemoura2417]

That’s very nice. I like your attention to detail.

[@Jackal956]

Wonderful work, may I ask what kind of finish would that be?

[@geoffhayday6003]

It is starting to look really good. Did you do the design in Sketchup or something else, some tricky curves in those legs. Thanks, looking forward to the next vide.

[@KingPostTimberWorks]

Yea ended up having to pay for sketchup for a year so I could use the 'pro' tools to draw the legs.

[@geoffhayday6003]

KingPost TimberWorks Thanks

[@markarmstrong2592]

Super job Joey you have a razor sharp hand plane mate. So many you see would put threw a drum sander for this i don;t know if you have one i;ve not seen one in any video

[@KingPostTimberWorks]

True that would be faster (maybe) and more accurate, but hand planing is fun. Plus my sander is only 600 wide.

[@markarmstrong2592]

@@KingPostTimberWorks Yeah i agree

[@seriousshooters5051]

Nice work, where did you get the hold down clamp for the slider section on your dimension saw? I need something similar.

Hi you probably been asked this before but what is the applicator you use for putting on the finish. Table is looking great.

[@rickyblabla2796]

Why would cutting the table top on a CNC take longer than doing it by hand, especially since you already have the pattern cut on the CNC? I thought you could walk away and leave the machine to do the work. Many thanks.

[@KingPostTimberWorks]

Unless you a doing bigger batches of things , one off cnc cuts can be very time consuming to set up compared to just plugging in a jig saw. 9 times out of 10 you definitely cant walk away from a cnc . There are so many settings etc that you hope have been set right, you need to be watching ready to hit stop.

[@rickyblabla2796]

Okay, I see where you are coming from. If you did CNC that expensive slab it would almost be worth doing a test on MDF to ensure settings are good. Cheers

[@caseyconner89]

Can you link to the pad you use to apply finish? I tried one that looks similar to yours but all the "hairs/bristles" just kept flaking off into my finish. Great work by the way!

[@KingPostTimberWorks]

Mine are speed brush by Pal , although they have just changed their foam pad material and they don't last as long as they did. Make sure to wash them out before use as they have stray hairs on them for the factory.

Joey, what was up with the epoxy that you used on the brass feet. Look like it had a bit of a metallic fleck added to the mix?

[@j-bdekker4871]

I always wonder how accurate a drumsander is when it comes to keeping thickness? Anyone got any idea?

[@KingPostTimberWorks]

Bit of a loaded question there. Depends how much you pay for the sander.

[@Zortorond]

I did get a result around 0.1-0.2 mm on a very similar machine. The whole thing is about patience and getting there as slow as possible which is not really often opportunity if you get paid on hourly rate basis.

this thing is so awesome! im just curious though - and this isnt meant as some sort of safety police drive by comment lol - but i notice you dont seem to wear a mask? i recently had some respiratory trouble after working with walnut and am crazy careful now. do you worry about the long term risks of dusts and VOCs?

walnut is really bittter, i wear mask with walnut too sometimes. all deppends on species/dust collection/your personal reaction to wood dust (varries per person)
