    @1:25 Viewers...never make a table saw cut like this, its extremely dangerous. Clamp the vertical piece to be cut to a horizontal piece of wood and run that against the fence.

    If u put a chain as a replacement for the wire in the center of the table, will that maximize the amount of weight it can hold?

    • @IllGetMyTools
      @IllGetMyTools  4 роки тому

      Juan Carlos Rivera sure will, but it won’t look as clean. Many people build the whole thing with chains it just looks kind of sloppy

    How do you tie the second end of the string AND end up being taut? You didn't show the ending of that tie.

    • @IllGetMyTools
      @IllGetMyTools  3 роки тому

      It was very difficult a ton of fine tuning. The taut line hitch and clove hitches that I used allow you to slip and adjust the knots as needed. It was honestly a pain but was eventually able to make it work. On one side I actually did a double clove hitch on both top and bottom of the table. I had to use needle nose pliers to get into the hole and taught to the nail.

    • @IllGetMyTools
      @IllGetMyTools  3 роки тому

      Great idea! Of course the physics is still the same. You would just need stronger material like a chain or kermantle rope to handle the weight

  • @The_Conqueeftador
    @The_Conqueeftador 3 роки тому +2

    Why not just use taut line hitches on both sides, staring from the bottom. Doesn't a clove hitch run a risk of slipping? The taut line has no room for error but it would be more secure, no?

    • @IllGetMyTools
      @IllGetMyTools  3 роки тому +1

      It would be, issue was creating the tautness in the small space. I put a safety knot on the clove hitch and it assisted in keeping it from slipping. You have to adjust all 4 lines multiples times it was very difficult so that’s what I came
      Up with in honesty.

      @@IllGetMyTools yeah, I'm at the same stage but with a smaller version. Cutting my fingers to pieces tightening this line for like the 4th time. That taut line knot is gold for the bottom like you said. I'm also using JB weld wood fill epoxy instead of dowels because the hammering makes me paranoid. So far so good. Just waiting on curing.

    • @jasoningram2006

      Try a Palomar knot. I'm actually about to try to build one of these for the first time but my lifelong fishing experience gives me good insight on knots. A Palomar knot is literally an untiable lot it's basically a cinch knot once you get it to cinch down on it it will continue to tighten down on itself until it can tighten down no further or it will break. But it will never come untied.
