    When I built a new dining table for my parents we kept the old one in storage, because my sister could still use it. Since it is 18 years old and had seen some good use it needed some fixes before using it again. And compared to buying a new one that's totally worth it.
    I also have a two-part series about building the new dining table for my parents: • Building a Curved Join...
    Enjoy the video!

    The "metal dowel with a thread through it" is called a barrel nut. Always enjoy your videos. Just wish you put them out more often.

    This is how I got into working with wood in the first place-repairing badly-made or damaged furniture for friends-I just found that I could do a good job and leave a fine finish so I have persisted and I love it more and more.
    I now have 21 Planes, 19 chisels, and 6 hammers-I like working with my hands and although I do have Electric routers, a circular saw,, a jigsaw and planer etc, I very rarely use any of them.

    As a person who finds old tables and repairs them for charity it was interesting to see how you do it. Thanks for the video!

    • @GregorKropotkin-qu2hp
      @GregorKropotkin-qu2hp Před 3 lety

      Good for you-I used to do the same thing on a volunteer basis for a local charity (since folded) and feel inclined to do some more of that-it's great experience if nothing else and quite often I'd get some paid work out of it which all helps!

  • @janosnagyj.9540

    Incredible how much the color of the wood was changed during the years! From almost white it became dark yellow... some cases even brown.

    Happy new year with health and happiness ! I'm a woodworker for 6 years now (not a youtuber yet) and the thing which i learnt in the last two years was that sanding is very nice and effective when you plane. Now i literally sand by hand so the film protective coats will stick. Use planes and trust me you'll love it. I learnt from Rob Cosman and Paul Sellers but of course you can learn from anybody who knows. And don't forget the Stanley no 80 and the fact that you can make some of your planes. Have a good work!

    I did a very similar project in our first home, except kept the round ends. :-)
    My wife insisted I add that the tabletop we had was particle board, and that I made the cut in the kitchen. You can imagine how much saw dust ended up all over everything.

    Nice job, well done! It reignited my urge to build a table myself.
    We need a new dining table in the living room. It should accommodate up to 8 people. I looked online through some shops, but these are all wrong. I hate it, when you hit your knee at the table legs. All tables work in their small configuration. But extended, you will have a table leg between you legs. Given the price of those tables it is well in reach to build one myself.

    Ahh the "benefits" of a small home. We have to do the same thing with our chairs to save room in our apartment. It's a pain in the ass to have such a large table, so I totally get why they wanted it smaller. It looks great in their home!

  • @richardpatterson4312
    @richardpatterson4312 Před 3 lety

    Cool project. I liked your fixes.
    I kept thinking the pantorouter could have saved you a bit of issues, I'm surprised you didn't use it here.
    It'll flatten your joint surfaced and make you a floating tenon, centering is usually a peice of cake.
    I bought the pantorouter before a bandsaw or a drill press so I usual think how could I use it before I think of other tools.
    Happy New Year!

    Frohes Neues Marius,
    sehr schön gemacht. Besser als neu. Warum wegschmeißen, wenn man die Fähigkeiten hat wieder neues Leben einzuhauchen. Es gibt natürlich einige, die Anfangen, die Stunden in Arbeitsstunden umzurechnen und die Rechnung ergibt dann theoretisch, das man es sich gleich neu kaufen könnte. Aber man vergisst, dass man bei dem Projekt viel Spaß hat und seine Fähigkeiten ausbaut. Der Tisch wird locker 20 weitere Jahre halten.

    I'm not sure if you have any clamps that can do this, but on many F style clamps you can reverse the jaws to make them spread. It's very helpful in situations like separating those pieces, and it really blew my mind when a friend showed me a new use for something I've used so many times.
