    Another tip that might help with stability and weight distribution would be to fill those bowls or half fill them with like sand or cement so it's heavy and not easy to flip the table

      I shouldn't flip unless you sit on it. The bowls have a flat bottom too.

      Lol! I know what you mean. But he probably saw some inspiration photos of coffee tables or saw some in real life with similar designs and then thought of what he can get for cheap to recreate the inspiration. You’ve always gotta think what cheap materials are out there with similar enough shapes. Once you recreate someone’s DIY or do some yourself, you’ll probably start getting the hang of it. ☺️💕

    It's a beautiful idea. However, the top of the table need one or two other coats of varnish to make it wonderful. The actual finish look too rought right now.

      Gotta love how there's ALWAYS someone negative in the comments. ☠️🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️ He comes up with his own ideas, seeks out the materials, many of which are obscure uncommon items, he then puts hours into making it and then hours filming his work, hours doing voice overs and adding pictures and text, hours editing all the work he filmed. AND he has to deal with all the issues that pop up while building it because EVERY project has those. He does ALL that work and you're in the comments being negative. Why don't YOU upload YOUR work. You CLEARLY know what you're talking about. ☠️🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤣

    Decoupage the top with natural raw fiber paper, lacquer it down and see if you can cut a glass top for it. The plywood surface even though it’s painted a yummy dark color is not giving the best look when viewed from above. I did this too (different style) and this is how I fixed mine. The glass I used was recycled from a patio table (so it’s tempered). Just use LOTS of duct tape to brace it when cutting and cut just barely bigger because you need to sand the edges……. unless you want to use metal edging; like the cooper stuff used for making stained glass window decor which is pliable and easily welds together with a soldering iron and can be glued (w/industrial strength adhesive) to the edges like banding.
    Alternative is, custom cut a raw stone slab from the remnants yard at your local stone mason shop.
