I've got tons of respect for how you guys keep setbacks in your videos to show beginner woodworkers that it's okay to have flaws in your work and that you can fix them. My grandfather, who was a carpenter and woodworker, used to say that the skill of a craftsman can be measured by how well he can fix problems, and you guys would definitely have earned his respect.
Most wood working videos show their mistakes
@@somebodyandthemyeah it's not uncommon at all lok
This is great stuff. More weird please😂
Mistakes are a desired result because they boost views. Ruining a $10k table is a moneymaker.

Love the build, but I really really loved the look after you had to sand the top down - the bare wood top against the the black "river" edges....that was awesome!!
Yeah as much as I love the final look, and I really do, my personal preference is also the black river edges and natural wood either side. It's a pretty striking combination with that glass colour!
Not an idiot. A skilled wood worker who squares out challenges as they come. You still have a reasonable amount of fingers, two eyes and no limp ... that does it for me, security wise 👍👍👍
At my work they say, "Did you work safely or were you just lucky?" I'm not talking bad about John. I'm just saying that still being all in one piece doesn't necessarily mean you were safe lol
@@CeeJayThe13th I know - I was actually a safety guard for 17 years, working with physical safety. Noone should take physical safety lightly, but I am quite sure, John knows how not to turn on that machine unintentionally. 👍🌞👍.
With oak you can blacken it by soaking a wad of steel wool in vinegar in a sealed jar overnight and then painting that vinegar onto the wood. It soaks in deep and has been used for hundreds of years to "ebonize" oak.
Ive done that before works great downside is the smell lingers for a good while at least 2 months in my experience
@@Tropicoboy Washing the wood with water w/ baking soda then rinsing thoroughly with plain water will help that smell dissipate quickly.
@@k9turrentdoes that affect the colour at all? Or is the black permanent??
@@R__A In my experience, it doesn't "reverse" the ebonizing, only 'stops' it by neutralizing the acids. It's like rinsing bleach off clothing, it's no longer "working" but the damage is already done
@@k9turrent ty for info🙏
Best thing about professionals on UA-cam is they show their mistakes and how they fixed them. Too many people pretend everything went to plan.
I love the look of white oak, so I would have probably used a slightly honey tinted oil finish. But I agree, you have to give the customer what they ask for. this table did turn out outstanding.
Gotta call blacktail studios finish product… looks super easy and has a tutorial
No! They'll just pour gallons of epoxy all over it.
Agree about the lack of directions on Rubio products. Used Rubio for the first time, results okay but all along I haven’t been sure I’m applying correctly. Would like to see you film a tutorial.
Agreed, and not helped by the fact the whole label is printed in a 3 point typeface or something…. Impossible to read
Shake, spread on as quickly and evenly as possible. Buff in with a white 3m pad. Buff off with shop towels until all residue is removed from the surface. Rubio is my absolute go-to and I don't offer any other finish
I went to a rubio instructional day to see its functionality on furniture and feel its only really for floors. Have only had issues trying to get a good finish on any kitchens we have used it and it has only caused problems with the customer. A traditional stain and clear matt lacquer has never failed me so that's the way I'll be sticking to in future
Love the table mate; a little surprised how good a totally black table looks ! Have to say I enjoy you showing the issues and mistakes as well as that is far more realistic compared to some woodworking channels !!
Beautiful table, the colour is not what I would’ve picked.
Such a skilled shop, I love that you show and talk us through your problem solving process
When I was young, I admired clever people. Now that I am old, I admire kind people.
I found your videos recently, and I've been slowly watching a BUNCH (I know this is one of your older ones). You are so engaging to watch, I love that you're honest and show all your mistakes, how to fix them, and don't mind trying things that are completely insane looking!
Love how the blue tint creates a shimmer down the live edge underneath. Top job 👏
Anytime ive had uneven sheen it has been because of the grain being sanded uneven. Wetting the bare wood with a damp cloth and sanding up from 60 grit usually helps
If equal affection cannot be, let the more loving be me.
The table looks great by the end! If you were to do another black table would you ever consider using an ebonizing solution? On white oak it work really well.
White oak is my absolute favorite to work with...theres just so much you can play with on the finish
Killer build john! Props to you and the team
To fix the sheen on the Rubio I like to throw a microfiber onto my random orbital sander and it picks up the excess color and evens out the sheen and color. Absolutely love the build though!
The live edge under the glass is🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾
Love the glass river table. Great job.
Totally amazing table! Love it.
The table came out looking great, amazing work guys. If this table had of been for me I'd have been super happy with how it was looking at 19:38, the natural wood with the black glass recess. It's generally my style of décor with mixing black and natural wood colours.
I was gonna say the same thing. It looked awesome like that, would have loved to see the glass in it like that.
John that is so awesome. Love how every time you do something a few times it just gets better and better. Epic build
I Love This Dudes Videos ✌🏻💐
Outstanding!!
Great job! I love the slab
love the table! but when you said all black i thought the glass would be black too. or at least grey. the blue just looks off in my opinion 🤔
I agree. I thought a different color of glass, such as a more bronze tint would look better.
I love all of your projects!!!
I would love too see a colab between your shop and Cam from Blacktail Studios. That would definitely be one of the best products ever created!!
Oh, we will
Beautiful work, guys! It looks fantastic! 😃
Stay safe there with your families! 🖖😊
Table turned out great. Glad you were able to keep moving forward through issues.
Keep on kicking but on those challenges! What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger!
I agree. One of the best tables you made, as well as that Bartop for brewery. Top notch
Love it, glass insert is amazing to-get that perfect fit. ❤
Every project I watch you create just amazes me more and more. Beautiful job brother!!!
Wow!!! What great craftsmanship. You won’t learn if don’t fail. Failure is one step closer to perfection and you NAILED it!!!
Love the fresh tattoo peeking out under shirt sleeve too
What do you think about using those temporary nylon nails to hold things in place as opposed to double sided tape etc? (I know it's best to use them when you're doing CNC type stuff as it's not visible and it's easy to just knock the piece off when you're done).
Amazing job with a top save!!😮. Have you ever considered a really thinned down bitumen? It soakes deep into the wood, easy to reapply and it’s worked for a thousand years
Nice job! Beautiful table!
Wow one of your best works! ❤
Black on top of oak is one of my favorite looks. So sick!
I hope Cam at blacktail can give some insight!
Great job!
Awesome results guys!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Absolutely stunning.
John awesome work as always. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. Stay squirrely. God bless.
Love watching all you do!!
Looks AMAZING. Great job.
Did you get a new Tat??
All your content is interesting, inspiring, and entertaining. Thank you for doing what you do 🙂
@3:51 THE EQUIVALENT OF A GOOD SLAG PEEL IN WELDING.. SOOO SATISFYING..
Good shit, John. I'd love to see a follow up on the Rubio stuff if you get it sorted out.
Awesome job
Let's see the new ink John! Don't think we didn't notice.
1:37 i really love white oak because of its raisin flex too 😜
Vinegar steel wool is good to turn oak blackish. It gives a cool look.
Amazing, it wouldve been nice to keep the rubio just to make future touchups easier, cuzz you know black is going to show everything. Darn good tho!!
Turned out awesome. I sampled Rubio on a project and could never get it to look right... and it's expensive. I settled on Odie's Oil and was more than impressed with the look and ease of use.
I always feel Lew is just about to break something. Don't know why, but it has me on the edge of my seat anytime he is in the video.
The ending is giving Shark Tank vibes with the delivery!!!
This is why i watch this channel and started watching this!!! Awsome!!!
Hola! 🖐That table looks really nice. I was with you, black did not sound like it had a good pop to it. Once it was delivered and in it's final resting space, wow! Great job. Take care and have a good one, Adios! 👊
I love your channel and have expressed my passion to my coworkers on how amazing you are when it comes to building these amazing projects!!! Every time I see your videos, I always think to myself that the photo you have a Nick Offerman in the background how incredible would it be if you did a project with him 💙
I'm just glad you sealed the top before "bonging" 😆 Looked great in the end!
LETS GOO, back to back weeks
India ink works with slightly less issue than precolor.. I used both with monocoat over top.. plus India Ink is cheaper. But that tinted laquer looks wayyy better imo
Than*
Beautiful table. I would've liked to have seen it with the black base and natural table with the glass
It would be interesting to see the tests pieces for these larger projects to see how many you have to go through, also that is a huge let down with the pre color for Rubio! Would you consider doing some videos on different products that have given you grief and how you got around it or suggestions for alternatives?
Saw the title and immediately thought of Blacktail Studios. Unlike Blacktail Studios y'all are more relatable and down to earth. His videos are like a lecture requiring $15,000 dollars of equipment to attend. But really, lecture.. monotone as fuck. Great build and working through the imperfections on camera, again.. is so relatable how you address it. Almost like I'm drinking a cold one building with ya!
If the customer is over the moon with it, the jobs a good one. Well done.
I reckon I would have left the edges raw and done the black. I love me a black stain but that's too heavy in my opinion. And it would have helped the whole piece tie into their dining room better. I build tables too and yeah, gotta do what the client wants!
Absolutely awesome💪😎
Shame about the Rubio, that black dye was looking gorgeous. Would love to see you do something with it once you've figured it out!
My shop has the same thunder laser. It’s a dream! I love it
Beautiful!!!
Looks amazing great work
When I roll I alwasy cross roll then I do a light roll in one direction it definitely helps wirh a perfecly even spread...rubio is good stuff they have directions online brother...oh and always de shed your rollers and brushes prior to using...great project dude
Love your stuff, keep up with the client builds very fun. Plz check in with the boys old and new. You pick some good guys to work with.
Cut the glass then router tye shape. Less stress. Love the projects.
What do you mean, you don't know who to blame if it went wrong!!??? ALWAYS blame the NEW guy!! Welcome, NEW Sam!!
the picture wall at the end is crazy
I would’ve gone with a just a dark wood finish, but that black looks absolutely sick. Missed these client videos from y’all. Loved the process.
Love it.
Reading these comments, maybe we need a "John tries viewer suggestions" video about different ways to 'blacken'(I guess? lol) wood?
The table looks fantastic! I'm not a snob about turning wood into a solid color but generally I'm not a big fan of it - but this looks great!
Looked great!!!
I really love the look of white oak, and would not choose to stain it black. I would have used a very slightly amber oil finish. in my experience, a slightly amber oil finish gives you a warm look that ages very well. this is a really cool table. not my style, but you dont pick your customers
I think this would look even better with LED lights under the glass.
Nice table top but couldn't the table legs be better done. Like somehow make the legs so there is no cross bar visible through the glass.
Great vid as always.
If there's no crossbar, the two halves wouldn't be connected. I have no idea how you could make one not visible
loved this table
Very impressive! Wow, I wasn't sure how the black was going to turn out. Impressive pivot and finish on that! Customer didn't want you to build chairs to match?!
We use general finishes water based black stain for the base coat instead of the rubio precolor for the exact reason. Also have had good luck with the GF black poly
Killer vid, John. Had the whole fam watching
Great job as always
Looking at the 13" wide piece of wood behind you in the outro... thoughts on an inverse expoxy river table? Throw that peice of wood in the center for the river and epoxy the edges?
Awesome work!!!!! Wish I could afford one😂😂😂😂
Very disappointed that this wasn't a mammoth tusk restoration video this week. Hopefully next week.
That damn Cam dude keeps buying them all….
There’s something about a glass river table that is just so much prettier to me. 👏👏👏
I LOVE blackened white oak. It's been one of my favorite styles for a while. I probably would have tinted the glass black if it was mine.
We have been using Osmo to finish all of our tables lately. Like it way more than Rubio. However we haven't tried tinting the osmo
Did ya get a new tat? When’s the reveal? Love the table and especially your honesty w the frustrations we all encounter in builds. Turned out nice - customer was happy - lol that matters! Cheers, Mark
I love leaving bark on.
Very nice!
