Butterfly Leaf Dining Table 6 - Split Top Sliding Assembly
Vložit
- čas přidán 20. 11. 2015
- After the base assembly is complete, I start working on the sliding mechanism that will carry the split top. I use maple for some of the parts, and walnut for the slides that will be attached to the table top when I complete it.
Although not very complex, it is a design that demands precision to work correctly.
As always, I welcome your questions and comments!

Beautiful table base...Enjoy your presentation, and your talking through issues as they arise. I'm looking forward to the veneer work. Thanks so much for sharing your skills with us!
+John Hamilton Thanks John! I'm looking forward to trying the (new to me anyways) vacuum bag for veneering also.
It is coming along nice and steady Guy! And you've got snow too! Nice
+Maurice Blok Hey Maurice! Thanks man. And yes, we have snow. Doesn't bother me at all, but my wife on the other hand....
I always enjoy your videos, Guy. You walk us through everything very well, taking the time to explain the process. Thanks!
Thanks for watching and not falling asleep during it Dave! Haha

I only fall asleep when I watch a video of a CNC cutting for a long time. lol
Nice progress, I like the way you used drawer slides. You explain everything very well.
+Matt Williams Thanks Matt!
Can't wait to see the finished table, love your work. PS: I have used wedges in spots where clamps are hard to use.
+T Brown Thanks T!
Coming along nicely, Guy, can't wait to see what the top is going to look like.
Thanks Bill! Started milling for the veneer today and will work on it over the long holiday weekend.
Looking good Guy. I like the idea of using the ball bearing slides. Great video as always!
+woodworker 631 Hey Brian. Thanks for watching and your support!
You're videos are impressive and makes it look easy. Well made stuff. Love it.
Really enjoyed this video too... Looking forward to the next part!
+Tomy Hovington Thanks Tomy! Been working on the veneer for the top all day. Hope to have the video up on Sunday.
I love you, guy. thank you for making this video and being yourself
Yes I do, I find all the information useful, and also inspiring, thanks from Mexico.....
+supersope Thanks superscope!
Looking good. Never seen how those slides go together before. Thanks
+Mike Fulton Hey Mike! thanks man. It's kind of a non-traditional use of slides, but for this purpose, it solved a lot of issues I have had in the past when using all wood slides. Thanks for watching and the nice comment!
Guy, the table is coming along beautifully. looking forward to the next video
+Patrick Melchior Hey Patrick! Thanks man! When we going to see the final pics from your bench build?
+GuysWoodshop well I just received commission for corporate Christmas gifts. ...so. ....money talks. ...very soon
Nicely done, as always. Thanks for sharing.
+EchoE West Thanks!
Like it a lot. I would definitely add some kind of fastener to the interior slide system. Glue only will eventually fail. Easy enough to add a screw from the out looking in. Just counter sink it. Very well designed. Nice to eat X-Mas dinner on. Thank You for sharing.
+mmanut I agree mmanut. There will definitely be a screw or two holding it in. I hope to have it done by Christmas. I know my wife wants it done by then.
Great explanation of that process, Guy.
+Steve Collins Thanks Steve! I know it's kinda boring and dry, but I hope that someone else will find the information useful.
Looks great Guy !! I really like the set up for the slides.
+The ShavingWood Workshop Tommy P! Thanks man!
You are welcome :-)

Looking good Guy. That's an interesting solution for the slides, using drawer slides. I haven't seen that before. My table slides are usually all wood with a tongue and groove sliding mechanism.
+Brian McCauley Thanks Brian. Typically I use wood also. Thought this would be a good project to try something a little different.
+GuysWoodshop yeah definitely. Great idea!
It's snowing, That's cool
A+ as always love to watch
+Richard “richard the boss” sargent Hey Richard! Thanks for the kudos!
Thanks again Guy
+Bob Gellenbeck Thanks for watching Bob!
thank you
Nice work as always Guy :)
+Henrys Workshop Thanks for the nice comment Henry!
Good job Guy. not seen drawer slides used like that.
+Mitch Peacock - WOmadeOD Hey Mitch! Thought I would try something different. I hope they work out....
Very detailed and precise. I like how the slats are cut to provide the space for both sliding sides with one side being wider than the other. Will the drop in leaf be 20" (10" each side) and have alignment dowels? Thanks for sharing.
+MRrwmac Hey Mac! The overall length if the table will be 78" closed, and the leaf will be 18". And yes I will be using pins designed for extension tables. Thanks for watching!
VERY NICE Guy! i like the slides ! where do you live that its snowing. im in N.Y and we got nothing ..im expecting a blizzard now..lol looking foward to seeing the shop made veneers and the top build!
+Joe basementwoodworking Thanks Joe! I live in Indianapolis. We only got about a 1/2 an inch, and it melted pretty quickly. Just surprised me to see it.
I absolutely love this table and it would solve my entertaining problems perfectly.
Would you consider making this table with 3 leaves for sale? I would need to have the base sanding done, but I would do the staining and finishing work.
Thanks Robert. Unfortunately I don't really do much commission work. My daughter asked me to make her this table too, and after I told her the price she said no. It would be a very expensive piece.
looking great Guy! man that's a nice piece of machinery @ 1:48 in. of course my tool budget is blown for now! 😀
great idea there using drawer slides for the table extensions!
+Mike Kapotsy Thanks Mike! When are we going to see that beast os a bandsaw running?
+Mike Kapotsy They worked out well. I am still trying to figure out getting rid of the lateral play in them as they deflect a little bit.
GuysWoodshop well working on cleaning up the workshop first. I need to finish wiring it, then want to setup jointer and band saw at same time. It may be a while, glad I insulated the workshop as it even gets cold here in FL, just no snow 😀.
+GuysWoodshop do you mean side to side? have you verified they are precisely parallel, and remain that way as they slide out?
Hi Guy,
Very clever use of the slides. Do you recall the name and specs, i.e. how much load they are rated for? How is the table holding up, are there any issues with the slides. Thanks for the great content
Una mesa bien bacana, rebien hecha. Felicitaciones.
¡Muchas gracias!
It's gonna be a beautiful table I'm looking to get someone to make me a table like this one but smaller do you think you can share the plans please I do not understand much English thanks
I realize that you have the table complete now but thinking about your gluing dilemma with the drawer slide support. Perhaps apposing wedges that would put clamping force against the drawer slide support during the glueup. Just a thought. Great series BTW.
Thanks Felisha! Yeah, I thought of that too. Well after the project was complete of course :)
Isn't that the way it always happens. Hindsight being 40/80 or even 20/20 sometimes. LOL
Looking good!! How is that saw working out for you?
Thanks Steve! I absolutely love it! Was cutting some 10/4 walnut today, and it powered right through it.
Krn sangat bagu sy suka sekali .dulu sblm di mentenan listri sy udah buat pesan orang tp msh alat tangan TDK ada mesin sekarang sudah terkumpul SBG nah STLH pensiun di listrik akan sy kembangkan lagi menyambung perut
This was awesome. I would like to know whether do you have a 3D model of this type of models?
Thanks! Unfortunately there are no plans for this. Sorry!
Thank you for video sharing. I like it.
What weight the drawer slides are intended for in your project? How did you calculate that this weight is enough?
+Galina Kuzmina Thanks Galina! The slides are 150 lb slides. Each side of the top may weigh 25 lbs. I hope we don't put more than 125 lbs of food on it!
Thank you for the answer Guy!
Coming right along Guy! Is that an Incra drill press table?
Hey Matt! It is shop made. Lots of INCRA parts. I love their stuff.
Cool, I thought I noticed the Incra parts. I need to build myself a drill press table!
In the video, it appears that the slides are slightly elevated off of the actual frame of the table, is that the angle of the camera or is there another reason? Also, how did you attach the actual table to the slides themselves? And thank you for sharing! I'm basing a table of cherry bordered with Jatoba off of this.
Yes, Gregory, the table is sitting on the slides and is elevated a 1/8" off the frame of the table. I think in this video, I show how I drilled holes in the wooden beams that are attached to the slides so you can screw the top to them.
GuysWoodshop thank you guy!
i'm thinking about making something similar, but guides only support 45 kg...how much weight it supports?
I think these are 100 lb slides.
4:20 what measuring tool is that?

Hi, what made you use those metal slides? why not just use wood for the slides?
Just so they are a ;little bit smoother. They still work great!
@@GuysShop do you think though the ball bearings might not last? wood ones tend to last a lot longer (had experience of items with bearings in the past fail). ps were did you buy those metal sliders?
What drawer slides did you use?
Do you sell the plans for this table?
Ultra-high-molecular-weight tape.
+Adam R Ahhhh. That's correct! I knew it, I just couldn't think of it at the time. My mind was maxing out with a lot of other things. HaHa. Thanks!
you could have used opposing wedges to clamp the slide sides
great looking table : }
+A. Guest HaHa. I thought of that, was just too darn lazy to cut them at the time. Great suggestion!
Been easier and more sturdy to use a sliding mortise
