Just found your channel a month ago. Love the content and you a small area to work, as do I. Great build on the breakfast nook area. Thanks for sharing. *Chris*
Thanks. We are just waiting on chairs then I’ll post an IG pic. The white oak was $6.52/BF in my area which is much cheaper than I’ve been able to find at other place. I was only charged $4 though and all of the off cuts are being used for a matching coffee table in a few weeks so it was a really good investment.
Nice build. Great work as always. The only critiquing I can do is that the table top needs to be thicker as the legs are very beefy whilst the top looks too thin.
Thanks - to each their own. Personally I disagree and I don’t think you‘d think that if you saw it in person. Actually, it’s no different than the leg proportions of the farmhouse table I built a few weeks ago / if you built a table with 4x4 legs - in fact, the metal table legs are thinner.
Zach, love the design and simplicity of this build. I'm looking to duplicate the finished product but for use outdoors on my patio. I love the combo of wood (multiple shades) and black steel/metals. 1. Any feedback on where to buy good steel leg set similar to what you've used.(apologies if you identify this in the video as I've watched only the first 30sec.) 2. Any feedback on what type and size of lumber to use for the table top? I was thinking either 4x4's to give it a real chunky look or 2x6 planks with nickle gap spacing for water seepage. Look forward to your feedback.
Hey - keep watching the vid - I custom fabricated the legs with 3x3 square tubing, so not sure where you'd buy the same thing but I'm sure there are good options in terms of a set of similar legs - usually they are not sold in raw steel form though - they're painted / powder-coated. And, they won't have the center stretcher connection though as it was all custom for my piece. 4x4 sounds good and so does the other option - not sure how high quality the 4x4 lumber is where you are so you might have to do some milling on it to get it in good shape. The gap sounds like a good idea regardless for wood expansion and drainage but probably less a concern if you use 4x4s as they are super beefy. You'll need to apply a good outdoor finish to it and keep it with maintenance on it based on how exposed it is to the elements. Good luck
Did you make first the rubio pure and after the supervwhite? And 2nd question.. You didnt paint the steel? Did you mKe any clear lac on the steel? I like the style natural unfinished.
Looks good Zach! I’ve done a few tables combining wood top and steel base. Such a great combo. My latest video has a same kind of feel to it and is a dining table, would love to hear your feedback!
Just checked it out - honestly, fucking love it dude - that metal base to walnut is clean as hell looking - gave you a like and sub - looking forward too more stuff!
Great build but how do you plan on compensating for any expansion and contraction with permanently screwing the base to the top? I have seen others where they have elongated holes in the mounting plate on the base with threaded inserts in the underside of the top. Just wondering if there is a different way about it.
The holes on top of the base are all oversized and the screws have washers which allow movement. I just followed some examples of what I have seen Black Forest Wood Co do with their tables.
Nice table. I think I'm going to take some of your ideas and make a proper backyard picnic table that will last, unlike the overpriced garbage table's they sell at the big hardware stores fall apart after just 2 seasons..
@@walesxscarlets I can't remember - but they are about twice as large as the screw diameter. I suppose out of caution I (or someone building it) could step it up further.
The hammer part 🤣 (and two Zach’s)
Came here to say this. haha
He’s a hottie.
Beautiful
Awesome build! Thanks for using Rubio!
Best choice I made on the build!
@@workshop_edits Appreciate the love!
Absolutely love Rubio!! Best finish on the market imo
Very nice. I love white oak. I was lucky enough to find a large pallet that was made of white oak. The top I made for the wife turned out really well.
We are making a matching coffee table now. The Rubio Monocoat finish was the real hero - never used it before but wow
Beautiful table Zach! Thank you for sharing the build with us💖👌👍😎JP
Beauty!
Oak & Steel with a clean practical look, nice build brother.
Thanks man! We LOVE it so far
Wow very nice 👌👍
Thank you so much
Beautiful :)
Amazing job!
Thank you!
Amazing job man.

Thanks for watching and the praise!
Very nice work. New subscriber here
Thanks for the sub and welcome to the channel!
Nice build ;)
Thanks!
Looks so good Zach! Would love to see how it looks in your kitchen. Can I ask how much that white oak cost you where you live?

El encino es una madera muy bonita!

All of these questions are addressed at length in the video for both the Rubio finish / errors and the clear coat finish on the steal.

very beutiful work .thank you for sharing..what is the angle for the legs?...I would like to build one .hmm.
7.5°. It’s all spelled out in the video...

Great job and beautiful work.
May I ask you what the clear coat was for the steel?
The clear coat will prevent moisture and liquids from rusting the metal
@@workshop_edits haha thanks, but I meant what was the product. I should have used better punctuation
Polycrylic Spray from Minwax
Great job! Is the top completely smooth? Or does it have “grooves”? Thank you!
What do you mean grooves?
Workshop Edits a little bit of texture. Like hand scrapped floors. Hope that makes sense...? Ha
Kind of. But no it’s totally flat. Idk if what you described would work well for a dinner table. Cheers
Nice table. I think I'm going to take some of your ideas and make a proper backyard picnic table that will last, unlike the overpriced garbage table's they sell at the big hardware stores fall apart after just 2 seasons..
The holes don't seem big enough to allow for expansion?
Pinning this so others stop messaging me. They do 👍🏽
@@workshop_edits what size hole did you drill? Looked like 5/6mm to me?

Should I buy mitre saw or chop saw?
Those are the same thing
