Thanks to Britton Timbers for supplying the White Oak for this Dining Table- brittontimbers...
This Dining Table measures 3000 x 1000 x 760mm and is made from White Oak. As you could probably tell from this video, the weight and size of this table was a real challenge as the weight played a big role in the design and construction of this piece. It was my intention to make this giant table look as light as possible and by using minimal components and by adding angles to the legs I felt this objective was achieved.
A couple of things to note. As mentioned in the video, the bottom rail bent downwards due to the weight of the table top. This might seem a little strange, well it was certainly strange to me. The reason why it bent downward was because as the weight of the top put pressure on the legs, the legs flexed outward and because the cross halving joint was so tight, the outward motion of the legs pushed the ends of the bottom rail upward causing the middle to bend downward. Certainly something I could have never picked up in the design phase.
Another thing to mention is yes I painted the steel angle bars.

I must admit this design was a real challenge to build but I certainly learnt a thing or two. Id love to know the different challenges you face when it comes to designing?
If you’re trying to get better at design or simply want to know my process then you might find my latest Patreon video helpful. Not trying to sell you on it. I just think there’s some good information there. After all, being good at woodworking is just one part of our skill set, design is a whole other ball game.
Regarding the lower piece that sagged under its own weight. Have you played with post-tensioning hidden rods? Look into the pre & post-tensioning engineering done for concrete. I’ve been able to stiffen boards by imbedding tightened threaded rods in internal counter archs.
@@BiggMo I havent but ill look into next time
@@BiggMo Sounds like that might require drilling a dead straight 2.5m long hole. sounds fun.
Yes you would just cut it out on the underside and then glue a similar piece in place, but that is just not as much of an asylum trip to me.
As a graphic designer in a former life. The piece I find most difficult about design is that the object is 3d not 2d like most of my training was geared toward. So making sure that the design looks good from odd angles is not really second nature to me. Starting to learn Sketch Up helps with that rather than just drawing it in perspective on a piece of paper and saying 'good enough, lets start cutting'.
@@BiggMo how would you drill a 3 m long hike and not spoil the part. I wouldn't be able, but I'm not a genius
Having watched all your videos it’s obvious you’re enjoying the process now. The editing and voiceovers are constantly improving and adding the little tips is a great idea. Thanks again for sharing your talent.
Thanks Jeff
What resonates most for me as a very novice woodworker is that idea that elevating the challenges of our woodworking also elevates the style and overall quality of the workpieces. Plus with videos such as this we’re exposed to ideas and challenges we might not have conceived of previously.
I’m glad I found your channel, and thanks for your inspiring work!
Beautifully done. The joinery looks so simple, then you throw in all of the angles. Boom, mind blowing. I’m just amazed. Keep them coming. Your video editing and voiceover is first class as well. Love that you have decided to use this way to do your videos.
Thanks Steve!
Iam totally blown away by your Creative mind & Turning it into reality, I’m 63yrs old a former finish carpenter for 30yrs, I also had a small shop in my basement to build small furniture pieces like end tables ect. I unfortunately became legally blind a few years ago, It really took a lot to figure out what I could still do as far as woodworking. I have spent the last 5yrs studying lutherie I have built 5 ukuleles from scratch & now Iam attempting to build my first full size acoustic steel string guitar. Thanks Nick for outstanding vids
Your videos occupy a space in the CZcams landscape with little other company. Please continue the high quality builds, filming, and voiceovers and resist the urge to follow the pack with goofy pop culture clips from tv and movies and you’ll stay at the head of the pack. Top notch work, I am always impressed by what you produce.
Thanks Greg
"I'm sure you know the drill by now." That's a bandsaw!
Hahaha
😂 by "drill" he meant routine
Your design and craftsmanship is second to none! I also like the way you communicate your design and production decisions, in a knowledgeable and professional way. You are a great communicator and ambassador for your craft. Thank you for the first class videos.
Thanks Brad!
Great video. You're right, no one else is doing this level of producing this quality of woodworking videos. For some reason, 99% of youtube woodworkers thinks it's "enjoyable" to watch the craftsman running 20 boards thru a thickness planner at 10X speed. And your level of craftsmanship is superb. Watching you produce these 'one-off' pieces of work has been truly enjoyable. Thank you. Just a thought - you really don't "need" background music, you have a fantastic voice and the shop sounds are pleasant enough. But, if you do feel the need for it, please consider soft guitar/piano style music. This is just my opinion, though - and you must do what you feel is best for your channel. Thanks again for all these great videos.

This is far more than just a table. I imagine a large family celebration bustling with life. With a banquet spread from end to end. A space for memories to be both shared and created. Just a whole lot of love! That’s what inspires me to want to learn how to create pieces of furniture. ❤
Excellent craftsmanship young man. I am a retired furniture maker from Scotland. My love for woodwork will never die. It is in my blood. When I was a boy in my dad's workshop (that was a long long time ago) I can remember the smell of the resin from the red pine was beautiful. That smell just did something. It was a bit like a stunningly beautiful woman passing you wearing expensive perfume. I was hooked on woodworking from that point forward. I loved the smell, working with hand tools but unfortunately didn't have much luck with power tools. I trapped my hand between a drive belt pulley wheel. The switch was faulty and it was the end of the day and was tired. I was sawing a piece of timber when the drive belt slipped. I stopped the saw and forgot to un plug the damn thing and started to tighten the drive belt. The damn thing started with my hand trapped in it. It chewed up my right hand. I lost half a pinkie and the nerves from that was used by the surgeon to rebuild the other two fingers. I was out of work for three months until the tendons healed. Needless to say I never did that again. After months of physio my hand was usable again and I had a long career making unique one off furniture. Bye the way if you need inspiration, my new hobby is image enhancement of NASA images from Mars which was the home of an ancient civilization. There are some amazing sculptures and structures which look absolutely out of this world. You could maybe incorporate some design elements into your designs. Whatever you make I will be enjoying your videos and thank you very much for your content as it gives me so much pleasure to watch them.
Thanks for sharing your story
After watching several of you’re videos, I’m amazed by the creativity and craftsmanship. I’m also amazed that you’re not wearing eye protection in any of the videos I’ve watched.
Amazing. 2nd video of yours tonight and I love how you work through the problems that arise. Always good for thought and understanding. cheers!
Great build Nick! It’s always interesting watching and listening to your process 👏
Thanks Heidi
Beautiful looking piece. I love how you explain everything in such detail.
I always enjoy watching other craftsmen create beautiful pieces of art. So smooth in flow, so warm in feel, so perfect in every way. Great job sir. You’re an inspiration to say the least!
Beautiful design and workmanship.
That is a stunning table. From the design to the material used you have outdone yourself. Bravo.
As always, you never cease to amaze me. Your designs are nothing short of inspiring.
Thank you
Wow!!! Your understanding of engineering principles is amazing, Another beautiful build.
Awesome design and craftsmanship as usual Nick! I like how the tapers at the ends are opposite to balance each other out. Also neat to see how much your shop has changed over the past few years.
Thanks Kevin!
It is such a thrill to me to find an Australian craftsman as you are. The table is stunning piece of design and furniture. Just found your channel and look forward to watching more videos and learning new techniques and skills
I love both the simplicity and structural complexity in your designs. Your videos are great ive been building furniture and woodworking for decades and i always look for people to challenge me to push the limits and be better your videos do that i appreciate your creativity !!
9:35 I think there might be a typo in the “tons” section 😂 beautiful table though, your craftsmanship is truly something to respect and admire
Gorgeous table
Beautiful work as always!
Amazing build! A masterpiece as always!
Just came across your channel, amazing work just finishing my first project after moving country’s and starting again. Looking forward watching more of your designs
Really excited to to see the workbench build!
Just found your channel from Max and Occy and a million thanks to them. I’m addicted and definitely in favor of voice over.❤
Thanks so much
I love your commentary! Of coursewith your design and craftmanship!
Lovely build!Awesome!
Amazing, the video production and voice over are great. It’d be great to see a explanation of how you photograph and light the final still images. I struggle with this critical aspect of making my furniture come to life for my website.
Your client must have been really happy. Thanks for putting into the video the "issues" you had and the way you resolved them!!
Thanks for watching
Hello Nick, it gives me great energy watching you create your art. I'll gladly watch anything you post. The farther outside the box we work the better we become at our craft IMO.
"She's right mate!"
Cheers
Thank you Tom
Found your channel thru Max and Occy. Your videos are incredibly interesting and informative and your works are stunning!
Awesome, thank you!
Love the table and the glue up station!
This is art , incredible workmanship .
Hello Nick,
I really enjoy Your videos, I always learn so much.
You are such an amazing artisan… watching You, I learn how much I don’t know!
Thank You!
Thank you
Super excited to see the Roubo come!
Beautiful creativity
Gorgeous!
Every time a watch your newest video, It ends up being my new favorite! This has kind of a simple look and I don't mean simple easy just simple, subtle is maybe a better word. Anyway I love it and might try a smaller maybe writing table size. As always I loved the video!!
Stunning, I have a commission I am working on now. It’s in white oak also. Will not outright steal your design, but will incorporate some of the details. I have been in this trade since 1976, easily one of the more impressive pieces I’ve seen.
I certainly hope you wouldn't steal the design. Im sure you know with being so experienced that stealing or copying is a no go.
This is an epic table. I almost certainly would have made the same error with the tables bottom rail. But I doubt I would have solved it as elegantly as you did.
As someone who is going to build a split top roubo bench in the near future, I'm excited for your take on it. Mine would follow Matt Estley's design pretty closely.
I would love to see what you come up with from a simple trip to Bunnings though.
That joinery is so crisp and beautiful. Thank you for sharing this with us!
Thanks for watching
Extremely elegant ❤
My challenge with design is often that I have an idea for a specific part or visual aesthetic because I haven't done it before, or I have and think it would look good or be useful on the current project. The challenge is how to incorporate that idea into the broader project in a way that in interesting, but doesn't look awkward or stand out too much against the rest of it because it should be appealing as a whole, not just the individual parts. I liked how you did the grooves on your bench video and carried that into the cross braces so there's a unique visual that moves through the whole project.
Thanks for the comment
Beautifull and clever work.
What a stunning piece. You Sir are a genius and an artist. You had me at the immortal words of Mackintosh. Form follows function. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful piece. Your channel is by far my favourite.Much love from the UK
Thanks Ryan
What you did there with the planer was nuts. I love that and can't wait to try it.
I love how 13 seconds in you're already taking the piss at the Imperial system. Love it! 🤣
Beautiful, too Beautiful this table, congratulations my friend.😍😍😍😍😍👏👏👏
Joe mangle taught me all I need to know about Aussie colloquialisms😂 great work as ever…
That’s incredible!
The future of ultra fine woodworking has a name.Nick Pedulla !!!
You're always so kind! Thank you
Great build video
another beautiful piece
Love, love, love your work. Masterful
Awesome work Nick, no problems with the "AU" stuff when local.. well WA at least!
Great great craftsmanship!
Excellent video Nick. My hunch was the span was large, but you managed to pull it off. Watching your videos makes push my design out of my comfort zone. Thanks
Thank you as always!
Excellent work vid and piece
Fantastic design, fantastic build, and fantastic video! Thank you for sharing your process! I really want to start getting into woodworking and you are a true inspiration.
Stunning
Simple elegant design, that only a true craftsman could achieve,...and boy have you achieved. Cheers
Thanks Darryl
Wow, I love this piece! Beautiful and elegant!
Such a stunning piece~! Beautiful work~!!
Nice job
Damn. Even your planer sleds are perfect!
😂
Absolutely another amazing and beautiful piece of art even though it’s looks simple looking at it but watching the video and and you sharing your thoughts and vision you learn that it’s not simple at all but like you said you art meeting engineering . Amazing and beautiful work and craftsmen ship as usual. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching
great work - l smiled at the reference to miles, and tonnage
Well done, Thank you very much.
Beautiful piece as usual. you never seem to let us down. the average person that has no furniture experience might look at this and think it is a simple build. they would be mistaken..although i love the piece, I'm not excited about seeing those brackets that you put on top to hold the leg structure from a certain angle. just my ocd at this point. and yes, your videos are alot better with the voiceover you give. you seem to have found your groove in that area as well...keep it up!!
Stunning table!!! Work of ART man!
Amazing. I love how a table with it's own gravitational field looks so light. I assume the bottom rail droop you solved was due solely to that component's own weight, being pinned between the opposing half-laps...? The engineered bow in the tabletop truly blew my mind, though, and based on the project 'suggestions' I'm hearing from my wife, I'll have to keep that idea in mind. Also love the top plate concept as well - that's genius. Can't wait to see you execute that Roubo!
Always loved your designs and techniques that look so clean and natural but loving the cheeky comedy now too.
Small (?) correction… table top weighs 90kg which does not quite =0.992 tons, closer to 0.0992 tons. I don’t think even your amazing woodworking, design and engineering of this project would support a 0.992 (=900kg) tabletop!
@@eudog8108 Its a typo
Thank you
Спасибо за шикарный обзор!
So impressive to do a table of this kind of scale!
Awesome Table!
Can’t wait to see your take on a Roubo!
Beautiful as per usual
I enjoy and admire your work!
Beautiful piece! It is, indeed, art!
You have mastered form combined with function. A lot of people have mastered function but really lack on form
Outstanding design and execution...
What a beautiful build. Exquisite
great work, thank you for sharing
Well executed Nick. I did notice the shop was a bit different. We al have mad or design furniture that was a learning moment in our career. Your hand tool work looks spot on. I guess we never attain perfect because we are own worst critic. Keep up the phenomenal work and the videos coming. I always pick up a tip from your videos.
Thank you Patrick
very nice, your detail work is superb.
Thank you
I love the floor scraper idea!
Ciao,Nick.Complimenti per il tuo lavoro,sei bravissimo un vero Artista!Cari saluti dai tuoi cugini Maria e Pierino Pedullà.
Wow, that’s stunning
Awesome table. Love the design.
Fantastic! Thanks for sharing. And, yes, some very funny things. I hope I got them all.
Thanks
Can't wait to see the workbench you make
Very impressive design and techniques. Always a big pleasure to watch your craftsmanship.
Thank you
Very nice work! Only one note: 90Kg is 0.09ton. Thus 0.9ton is 900Kg.
I admire your work greatly, I have been following your designs and website long before your social media tool off.
It seems like you are becoming more of a content creator rather than following artistic path these days.
Id like to think that having the freedom to create content is allowing a greater artistic path
Another extraordinary piece.
Thank you
Great and useful explanation! Thanks
