    Modern Console Table // Floating Console Table // Console Table How To ...In this video, I build a floating modern console table out of solid white oak. Despite it’s simple look, this cabinet required quite a bit of extra work to take into account wood movement in the 4 continuous grain doors. The waterfall joinery of this console table has the grain flowing across the top and down each side for a seamless look. The push-to-open mechanisms eliminate the need for any hardware and give this console table a clean and modern look. Let me know what you think in the comments below!

    So I’m looking at this amazing build and saying to myself, I’ve got that tool, that machine and that machine so yeah, I can do this. Then I went to my drawer of skill and knowledge and realised how empty it was. I mean it echoes in there. Probably should have invested in the tool between my ears first. 😛

    • @KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking
      @KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking  Před 3 lety +52

      I can't tell you how complimentary and refreshing that comment is. The usual comment is "yeah, I could build that too if I had all those tools." People seem to forget that tools don't drive themselves, nor do they take into account design, joinery layout, wood movement, grain direction, etc. The tools only do what we tell them to do...well, most of the time...😂

    GREAT content. Inserta hinges are a game changer. However when I use Blum's push to open mechanism (Tip On) on hinged doors I typically use a "free swing" hinge which pops the door open way further than the soft close hinge and also helps not have to manually push the bumper in before you close a door that has soft close hinge on it.

    • @KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking
      @KeithJohnsonCustomWoodworking  Před 3 lety

      Thanks Taylor! Good tip! These hinges allow you to turn off that soft close mechanism, so if the client doesn’t like the way they operate currently they can turn it off. 👍🏻
