DIY Farmhouse Dining Table w/ Epoxy Inlays Using Reclaimed Barnwood
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 сер 2018
- This week I show you how to build a DIY farmhouse dining table using reclaimed barn wood lumber, featuring epoxy inlays. My friends asked me to build them a Parsons style table, and I came up with the idea to use reclaimed lumber, and pour pigmented epoxy into the voids. Let me know what you think about this DIY farmhouse table. Thanks!

I really love it when these diy channels admit to making mistakes, and avoid post-project rationalisation. Great job.
Love this book! ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxpCNxqmAkyjN6NPx1fyB7QiEFWyO5mUWL it is simply one-of-a-kind! I really love it, because karah explained all tools required to have the job done, not mentioning the fabulous diy pallets ideas. I'm pretty sure this will be a fresh start in my new endeavour. Amazon was great, they delivered on time. Thank you!
I love how you show the mistakes that you made and how you addressed them. This is why I keep coming back to your builds vs others. Knowing what to do when something goes wrong is priceless!
Man, this turned out gorgeous. Haha! When you kept referring to going back to the drawing board makes me realize how much "patience" woodworking teaches us. I just split my project right as I was adding the legs, but your tenacity and expertise inspired me to stop complaining and learn from my beginner mistakes. Thanks for sharing.
Reclaimed stuff can be so difficult to work with. You did a good job sticking with it and not letting any of the issues stop you from getting it done though. I like how the tinted epoxy looks with the reclaimed lumber.
Thank you Bruce! I’m very happy with the results, but damn it was a process to get there.

I worked with reclaimed wood once. We used it for wall treatment. On a straight wall it's not that hard. However, having to miter horribly warped, cupped and twisted boards for a niche for a big screen TV was for me impossible. I cried uncle! Luckily the boss is a master carpenter and made it look absolutely beautiful.
An issue is something that cannot be resolved. “Problem” is the word 😂
Great video.
Great video. When using epoxy, I’ve found that for coloring that I can use chalk line chalk. Very economical, several colors available for mixing or use single color.
Be
Loved that you used reclaimed lumber and that you filled the gaps with the blue/green/white metallic! That’s my favorite color! I’m currently remodeling my kitchen and would LOVE to find something like this as a new table for the space. Also love your attention to detail. Great job.
Dang man I don't think you'll ever see this because of all the views but you are amazing your attention to detail and care for history leaves me in awe and tears actually. Your amazing keep it up!
I love the contrast in materials and color. The use of reclaimed lumber just adds to the allure and beauty of the raw materials you combined.
Great job.
I watched this video without sound and it looks like everything came out as planned.
I reclaimed a couple of container loads of poplar joists awhile back. Ended up wire brushing the surfaces to get rid of the planer knife destroying grit. Used a seven inch angle grinder with wire brush on it. Also pulled a few buckets of nails & bolts. Totally worth it though.
Great video. Nice outcome.
Wow, now I feel better when things don't work out as planned in my workshop either.
I guess we are all challenged on certain projects that don't go as planned.
Big of you to show and explain the glitches of your project. Thank you for the video.
Trust me everyone learning. I make cakes I am still learning since always new stuff see if help cut time normally it's a bust. Never such thing as cutting time when making something awesome.
Totally agree here , Jonny Builds...fantastic.
Very well said. It is very admirable, and intelligent of him to show the errors etc.
I like that he points out the mistakes made. That's how we learn.
Both tables are beautiful. I enjoyed learning about how you made this table. In sharing your successes and redoes, I learned far more than I would have otherwise. Thank you so much!
Nice video thanks for sharing!
We use large syringes to fill in the resin into the smaller cracks. They are quite cheap and it works well for us.
Came here thinking I could build a table. Left thinking how do I convince the wife to buy all those tools
You need half of them...u can do multiple jobs with the same tools,this guy could of got away with very basic ones
Vince Vega Customs and
Yes
Mackey Charli was
Mackey Charli hahahahaha...this comment is gold...
Nice... I really like the table. Having been a Shop Teacher in a High School for 33 yrs I can appreciate the work that went into the table. I also love the rustic look of the old barn wood
High praise coming from a shop teacher of 33 years! Thank you, that means a lot 🙏. Also I wish I would’ve taken wood shop in high school myself.
I know this is an old video, but so is my project. My brother moved from his 42 yr. house, and had 42 years accumulated stuff. There was a very old picnic table made of Redwood, all I could save was the top. I was getting ready to through it on the burn pile when I decided to try a rebuild. This video has probably helped more the the previous half a dozen or so that I've watched. Can't wait to experiment with some resins and colors to see what comes out. Thanks.
Awesome build and time capsule of learning by doing. A craftsman work of art. Thanks for sharing the process 👍🏾
Excellent tutorial. I'm in the process of a building a similar table and you've already saved me from two mistakes I would have made.
Excellent! Thanks for watching
Came here to learn about using reclaimed lumber, left with the joy of knowing someone is using a company from my hometown!
Nothing beats the character and environmental friendliness of reclaimed wood. Giving it a new life; beautiful!
Such a great presentation, showing the mistakes, being real about it is so instructive. going through this process right now with reclaimed timber. Had the epoxy leaking problem not solved until your demonstration. Many thanks.
I woukd love to see a table made with reclaimed lumber that was not sawn straight on the sides, and just has epoxy filling the gaps between boards.
So wish my hubby was still here. He would have loved playing with ideas and the epoxy resin.
I love how you show the difficulties you face, this is how I learn. Thank you
Kudos to you for an honest explanation of all the pitfalls you encountered on this build.......that takes courage.
Well done, sir. And I appreciate the honest sidebars about length of time for certain processes and unforeseen complications/mistakes
I never wanted to build a table before but just watching him work was magical I honestly never been so entertained by wood work lol
Admit it, you were baked
Thank you so much for the video! The table is just beautiful! It gave me the information I needed to fix my antique desk top!
My Mom has an old “Mission Style” or as some people call it “Arts and crafts” table from the late 1800s or early 1900s. It’s oak and it’s just beautiful, those that are well done just never wear out, it’s a family heirloom. It’s made almost like your table only there’s no glue or nails. You did a beautiful job with this table and I love the reclaimed lumber and epoxy.
Sherri Bearden I really think that he could have used sawdust and epoxy mix to fill in those gaps on the first table. No it would not be perfect but it would be a teachable moment for beginners.
Finally, someone else has similar problems working with non dimensional old lumber. Great job sticking with it. It's funny how hard we end up working on our projects. Keep up the great work.
All the mistakes you made are actually very helpful for subscribers like me. Being honest is more important than anything else at least in my opinion. 👍
Well done Jonny! That looks like it was a lot of work. I really like how you filmed the one with the errors in order to show the learning process. Most people (myself included sometimes) make the first one off camera to figure it out, then turn the camera on for the second run through so everything looks like it went smoothly.
Haha, I should totally do that next time! Thanks man! I learned a lot along the way and ended up with something I'm proud of.
I liked seeing/hearing about the errors/alterations in process, but also would have liked to see/hear how you resolved the squaring issues in the final product... I have a similar project I'll be taking on soon.
What did you do with the not so perfect table?
Gunflint Designs nailed it. I learn more from when you show your mistakes than when you show the perfect error free process. When the guys making projects make it look so easy, and I mess it up, it makes me almost feel like I don't have the right skills. Thanks for hte great learning experience and keep up the great work!
You the man. About to finish up a resin table myself, this answered a lot of questions I had since there are several ways you can tackle a project like this.
LOOKS GOOD, IT'S NICE THAT YOU WORKED OUT THE KINKS ON THE FIRST TABLE AND BUILT YOUR SECOND ONE, THAT'S HOW WE ALL LEARN IN THIS LIFE. THANKS FOR SHARING. 🇺🇲🌞✌️👍
Nice work, I think the top from the first table could easily be reused as a side board , bathroom vanity, an island top,or even a cool door so it wasn't a total loss👍😀
I saw a guy apply epoxy that was transparent with just a touch of color and coat the whole table about 1/8 to 1/4 in. above the wood. looked super good.
as "one man band" wrote : "The balance between leaving enough patina and getting boards straight enough to work with is a tough one." … assuming the goal is to show the "character" of the reclaimed wood, it seems like clear epoxy could give a smooth finish to a clean (but rough) look?
What about all those cancerous warming labels in the back of a bottle of epoxy...
Elektra de la torre. You can die from anything if you get enough of it.
@@elektradelatorre8352 don't gulp down half the bottle and don't stick your nose in it for an hour straight and you should be more or less alive
@@elektradelatorre8352 As far as I can recall, all of those warnings apply to epoxy only before it cures.
WOW - just WOOOW watching these videos reminds me why I started this hobby and inspires me to not be afraid of the hard work that goes in to making something amazing. I'm weary of epoxy, your video helps, I'm learning the value to proper joinery and yea this video helped on that too - honestly I can't wait to get home and make some magic. Thanks for this!
I know a lot of people think that you need all those tools, but, if you do what I have done, join a men's shed group (Australia), they have sheds set up with all these tools. Most of what is shown can be done with only a few power tools. Great video, gives some great ideas on what can be done.
So great to see the "happy accidents" during this entire build. Wish I would have known about the heat gun and aluminium tape tip before I made a resin mess on a project a couple years back! Live and learn, haha
Yeah, that was definitely a happy accident! Thanks, brother!
"happy accidents" that's what I call the Chinese food I put on my plates at the buffet ..
I would have liked to have seen more of the finished table. Also, would have loved to know how you resolved the issues from one build to another. Thanks.
Agreed, he took some major shortcuts in the production of this video, especially after building up to the challenge of that final fitment conundrum, I was disappointed as well.
I came away from it all with the impression that he ultimately didn't solve the riddle and ended up with some subpar results, but was not able to admit it in the end.
It's like the movie "Contact" where they built a secret second machine that no one knew about after the first one is destroyed.
I am in Southwest Florida. After my dining room table was ruined in hurricane Ian I decided to make my own. You taught me so much. I love the epoxy colors. Thank You !
That's why these videos are so great, for all of us DREAMERS that know their is no way for our designs to get from our brain into a wood shop with out winning the Lottery. But I love watching your videos.
Can I just say thank you for including a decent amount of voiceover! So few videos I watch do. I have always had a love for woodworking but it wasn't "ladylike" or "academic" so I was not allowed to persue it. Now, as a grown woman with two children, I have neither the time or money to start learning or take a course so I am uneducated in this topic. I really appreciate the explanations and monologue so I can continue to enjoy this and learn some things here and there. Nice job, lovely respect for the wood. X
You should go for it! Basically everything I know about building furniture I learned on UA-cam myself.
@@JonnyBuilds I would love to but I couldn't even remotely afford the tools, even basic hand tools. Plus, I have two young son's and two jobs so time is limited to say the least!
@@TheKiddSocks you can use set-aside space at Home Depot or Lowe's. I'm pretty sure they'll let you use tools for free. Everyone wants to help a single mother, at least everyone who isn't making money off their suffering...
@@squirlmy Sadly I am in the UK and there is no such place with that on offer. Sounds cool though, I'm jealous!
Beautiful table. Simple and refined, and the splash of color with the epoxy gives a unique twist to the Parsons table.
Thanks Mike! So glad to finally share this with everyone!
굿,나이스.
I really appreciate your candor regarding the difficulties or things that didn't go as planned. It is super helpful.
Beautiful piece of furniture that will last for another century.
You should use a ‘Crown guard’ on the table saw & use mortice & tenon joints on the legs/frame!
I believe you, but could you explain why?
You can make safety videos without a badge.
Dominos are loose Tenons. The Festool Domino joiners (500 and 700)bore the mortise.
My concern with the original table is expansion across the grain. The humidity in Oklahoma might be steady enough for it not to make a difference, but without gaps between the legs and the table top, I would fear the top expanding and damaging the joints between the legs and table skirt/ apron.
Nice table though. Thanks to Johnny Builds for sharing the knowledge.
With warped wood? That would take great skill, but you are correct. Even pocket screws would have been better that his design. Hey what is a crown guard? Thanks
Well done sir! Wish I had found this before I did wood and resin table. If I might humbly pass on a tip; one thing I found was that applying sanding sealer before adding epoxy helped limit the absorption. I was having issues with surface absorption staing the edges around the cracks but it looks like you didn't have that problem so maybe I'm doing something wrong in the first place. I also used high flow acrylics paint rather than powders. Easier to work with.
Oh my goodness thank you! I did up my first table with resin and had that exact issue- absorption causing discoloration around the fill areas. I am saving your tip for if I ever do another one.
Loved that you point the struggles and mistakes. It really makes the video more relatable. We’ve all been there...all be it with smaller scale projects. Keep em comin’
New techniques, things I had no idea existed, too bad we don’t last 200 years, I’m thinking about all the things we miss in life, Amazing job, thanks for sharing such wonderful mind
Nice, man! Really tasteful use of epoxy, nice and subtle. Watching this also reminded me why I avoid reclaimed lumber haha! Looks awesome, but such a pain.
Thanks brother! I might stay away from using reclaimed for a little while...
etsy.me/2PDZl6h
It might have been subtle if it weren't light blue. wtf
The balance between leaving enough patina and getting boards straight enough to work with is a tough one.
Came for the table, stayed for the detail to editing and refreshingly thorough explanation. Excellent workmanship
Thank you.
This was a very informative because I have a 100 year old house. The floors are wood , but I wouldn't call them Hardwood. Nowadays they'd be considered underlayment, but they're pretty. I want to clean them up and Prime twice then epoxy them. It's nice to know I can fill in the little grooves with epoxy mixed with Sawdust . Thank you nice video
Always nice to see a video that includes the mistakes you learned from! Very much enjoyed this video.
Thank you!
Btw. That was quite a process. It’s too bad most people have no idea what all is involved. Thank God for those who do !!!
Love the end result - it is so effective to have a few flecks of epoxy here and there, it's gorgeous!
I really enjoyed watching your process and even with the obstacles you ensured, I absolutely love the table! The color of epoxy is beautiful and the finish looks really nice! I like how it turned out. I'm sure the more you work with reclaimed wood, the better results each time. 👍
If you want a nice even thin stream, going where you want it to go, let it run down a stick! Should elimiate some bubbles as well.
Oral syringes work pretty well too. If you buy them online in large quantity they're pretty cheap.
I would happily buy a table that is imperfect. It looked solid in functionality, and the imperfections only add to its unicity.
Great video. Thank you for showing some of the struggles. I like how people are saying you have all the tools and yet you're still complaining about the difficulties. Having all the correct tools help, but if you don't know how to use them you projects still won't work out. That's like telling a 5 star chef he makes good food because he has nice pans. You are a craftsman and you're videos are great. Keep it up. I just finished a huge table for our house, it'll be the last one I make. I'll stick with the smaller things that I'm known for.
Thank you 🙏
Your epoxy table reminds me of the bowls and plates that Japanese use to glue them back together rather than throw them away. Beautiful work! 👍🏆
Very nice video! Thank for sharing !
The best videos to go to sleep too..
Thank you for explaining in detail. I'm a first time wood working and listening to you makes it easier
You could also use a 50cc syringe to apply resin to cracks more precisely and would cut down on waste. Love your videos❤️
Honestly depending on the resin theres not enough time for that. Just pinch the cup a bit and itll flow much more controlled, plus you wont waste a syringe :)
Reclaimed wood, is the only wood I will work with... It's a challenge, that's what I like... Great video Dude!
Nice job on the table and I'm glad I finally found someone from Oklahoma on here.
very nice, I just found some 60 year old barn wood....can't wait
Interesting video, totally convinced me to go and buy a table
😂😂
Hahaha best comment!
Hilarious comment...
Quokka Pirquish 🤣😂🤣
Hahahahaha good job
Beautiful work! Thanks for sharing!
Really nice work! I've been wanting to incorporate epoxy/resin to my furniture i also make with reclaimed wood. I've got some neat ideas i want to try!
I go through the same problems every time i make something. Every piece i do is custom made due to the nature of working with reclaimed wood. Sometimes it can be frustrating but in the end very rewarding cause its amazing what the end results are when a piece is done. Thanks for sharing!
Enjoyed the build and hearing what worked or didn’t work. Learning what doesn’t work is half of battle.
At 7:38... "exact length of roughly 25 inches..."
Lol
I'm impress. You look so young to be a craftsman. Love the table. How many people could sit around a table like thus, 4-8 people perhaps. You are so right, if at first you don't succeed, try ,try again. The second came out to your liking. Bravo!
I really like that you share what it works and what it didnt.
incredible table i just aquired some exotic wood called curapay and lapochao at least thats what the guy said they where im planning to use for a table, The curapay has lots of splits and planning to pour epoxy the same color you did.the curapay is a deep burgandy color and the lapochao is a brown color and both wood are unreal heavy. Thanks for the tips in the video
What a superb video, I think it’s the first one of yours I’ve seen.
The narration was fantastic, detailed, easy to follow and possibly the most important of all the difficulties you experienced. The end was pretty damned good too. I think you showed when it comes to furniture 'simple' is anything but.
I actually thought with it being such a simple design you must have got the date of its design wrong. I thought surely the Quakers in England in the 17th century or the Shakers once settled in America in the 19th. But no, you were right designed in France in the 1930s by Jean-Michel Frank's students.
From seeing the difficulties you had to face to the final reveal everything was excellent. Very well done indeed. Of course I've subscribed.
Thank you so much! It may not have always gone the way I planned, but I learned so much from this project.
That's a great tip to use a heat gun before chiseling the epoxy off, have to remember that!
Thanks! It works well!
the heat gun is for exit air bubbles?
You built your first bed a year ago and now you have over 624,000 followers impressive. Subscribed 😁
Wow, how am I just now coming across this? Hats off sir. Excellent work.
Your shop is amazing.. you've got more $ in tools then I've had in my entire life!
Thanks but I’m guessing the shop you’re referring to is the VRL shop with the giant Tannewitz saw. My shop is just my garage.
Love to have a shop like that
That is AN absolutely gorgeous table... I wish I had the skill to make such creations.. simply masterful. Thank you for sharing!
I have watched this video probably 5 times. I love how that table turned out and hope to try that design myself one day.
Thank you for this video! And being in Lawton I always wanted reclaimed wood but was clueless where to get it-thanks for the tip! Peace and great health to you and yours!😊
Hitting a snag, having to break apart what was glued together, coming up with a creative solution to solve the problem, and putting in hard work again to make it work until it does. Motivational Speech - Table building style
Man, this table will survive for centuries. 👌
i have always hated build videos with talking over them, but you are an exception, i enjoyed every word you said, and you never got boring once, you kept my add brain at bay for all 10 minutes of this wonderful video
Beautiful work! I do believe all the resin tinting will date stuff soon. Black or clear is classic. Great work though. Just my 2 c worth! Timber was beautiful!
Look at it this way...the table, being less than 'perfect' gives it "character". 😉
Honestly, the imperfections on the table that didn't meet your standards, is what made that particular table awesome!....at least to me it was. The imperfections added character as did the old lumber did too. Great job!!!
My wife has been wanting me to make her a reclaimed table. Now she knows the work that goes into it. Your table turned out Beautiful!
Narrow doorway = oops, wish I hadn't glued the legs on.
Reminds me of the scene in the movie Contact where, after the alien megastructure we were building flies apart, we find that there was a second one being built, in secret, all along.
Excellently described by a consummate professional.
Haha! That was one quick shot of the"second" table!🤣
I have different color soapstone that I hammer down and smash it into the cracks w/ epoxy, it gives the look of marble. If I grind the soapstone it will be a plain color w/ no marble affect.. Both are a great way to fill cracks & knot holes..
Very interesting idea. I might have to experiment with that.
Holy guacamole Batman- great idea. About to fill checks on a spalted silver maple table. We sit on mountain of soapstone!! How do you use to grind?
@@crovet ...What state are you in, I'm on the Md. & Pa. line and the colors very from a light tan to brown and some green, then the next stage is serpentine that is very hard, almost marble.. To keep the marble look, I just hammer it into small pieces, mix them w/ glue & trowel them into the cracks..
Central Va: grey to black soapstone here with white quartz streaks. Sounds like you hammer into small chip size retaining marble look, but when hammering into a finer grind, how does that turn out? Thought I would fill gaps with epoxy, then last 1/2 inch embed soapstone chips
@@crovet ... Sanding the stone will make it a plain color, but to keep the marble look I crush it.. The green stone here has dark red stone garments... Keep an eye out for Indian bowls, they used it a lot for cooking..
Amazingly beautiful and oh boy what a lot of work. True art form. Thank you for sharing.
Love this. Glad you showed the mistakes. Helps us learn.
I love this concept. I need to play around with epoxy a bit more.
Nice work!!! And thanks for the honestly and humbleness. 👍
