  • This was a several month process of me making this cedar and resin table. I ran into problem after problem and made many novice mistakes, but I learned a lot, and I hope you can learn from my mistakes as well.
    The table is 4ft x 10ft

    Man you shouldn't be running loud power tools next to dogs that are locked up. They have better hearing than humans, you're going to destroy their ears and give them a lot of stress. You can tell in the video they're wigging out...

    Clicked because of the title, subscribed because of the Bible verse, watched the whole video because it was thoroughly informative. Well done!

    No mask while using the router to flatten the epoxy table? that's a lot of epoxy and wood in your lungs and that poor dog's lungs in the background...

    Think of a dog, the sounds of machines hurt him

    I wonder why you think the dust in the air will cause problems for you, thus waring a mask, but will not affect your dog. Sad to have the dog in the project area.

    Hi 👋, I am new to your work shop, Like the first person putting comments in, you should always be wearing a dust mask even outside, you may think just because you outside it is okay BUT IS NOT, and your poor dog will suffer as well, it is not now when you’ll get ill it will be later in life, pulling the timber down flat to your mould, seems like a good idea, but it is not as when you release it. It will finally pop-up or curl up at some point , apart from the safety issues, the table looked pretty good , please be careful and safe, PHIL FROM THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOULIN FRANCE.

    wearing safety glasses will keep you from needing a seeing eye dog

    U can’t sand all of the wood when flattening hard and soft spots

  • @Leonitus485

    Note to self…dont use cedar for a river table.

    It turned out great despite your "so called mistakes". My guess is that you learned an immense amount doing this project and you improved your knowledge base for going forward. Thanks for sharing and showing us all the difficulties you encountered. Very valuable info provided. 😊

    Wow. This was mind blowing and not in the way you would think. I don’t understand why so many rounds of sanding and oiling and the router sand, and so many other things. I am just…. Speechless. Congrats on finishing it.

    Dude Thank you for being humble and not arrogant like most others on here. Its like a breath of fresh air for real. Makes watching much more enjoyable bc its relatable. Lets face it if any of us were perfect why are you watching others do it... So TY again man.

  • @jhill2042

    Loved the video. Much better seeing someone dealing with mistakes and overcoming them then only seeing the good.

    Absolutely love the project, and watching this type of detailed, step-by-step explanation of what you did and how you did it - especially highlighting the challenges and mistakes - is incredibly helpful. Gives me confidence and makes me want to try something similar.

  • @terryeyer5027

    I like hearing the voice over describing exactly what was being done. Very beautiful table

    I work with big Cedar and you're 100% right. It's a finnicky wood that requires way more finesse than just about anything else I've used. A couple things that I've learned. Start at 120 grit and random orbital everything. Raised resin is unavoidable but a scraper knocks it down nicely before you continue to higher grits. Cedar dings, and is ultra soft so make sure you're client understands this. To finish I've used polymerised Tung oil with a bees wax sealing coat. Doesn't make it any harder but it feels amazing.
