    Those top boards are massive, it would be a big job to mill those without that new jointer.

    Great build, Andy. I like that you not only tell us what you're doing and how you're doing it, but also why you are doing it that way (e.g. sliding dovetails on the drawer dividers). Thanks. Stay safe.

    You asked about old growth and grain. Old growth forest were very mature stands of trees. Here in WI the old growth pines were so large and so dense that it was said that the forest floor was covered in needles. No under growth. Because of this the trees grew very slowly, bense the close grain.

  • @ronsteis2065
    @ronsteis2065 3 роки тому

    Old growth lumber has tight grain because the trees that produced it grew slowly in the shade of larger trees- the trees got less sun exposure. Rapid growth of trees results in wider grain because of faster growth during spring and summer. Ron

    My house is about 65 years old. I installed some pockets closet doors and removed some of the original pine studs. I counter 37 growth rings per inch in the original studs and five growth rings per inch in new Home Depot pine studs. That's the difference in old free-range lumber cutting and today's managed plantings. It 'wood' be interesting to see the strength difference in the two lumbers.

  • @rrmerlin3402
    @rrmerlin3402 3 роки тому +7

    The growth rings on old growth are tighter because that tree got a chance in life when one fell in the forest allowing sun light to reach the forest floor. So now that tree grows in shade which slows down the rate of growth. Modern pine in grown in full sunlight therefore grows much much faster.

    • @Dragonited
      @Dragonited 3 роки тому +1

      Not completely true. Yes, denser trees grow slower while the cheap stuff grows faster. Though the standard cheap pine is planted in neat rows tight together. This will cause them to try and grow as tall as possible as fast as possible to not end up in the shade of all the pines around them. SSo they grows straight and tall. They will get all cut down at the same time after 20-30 years.
      The denser pine, however, grows more randomly and will not have to compete in hight with the other pines close to them. They will naturaly get more sunlight that does not get blocked by other pine trees as much. This will result in them having no need to grow tall and fast. So they use most of the energy they collect to grow thick and dense instead. These trees will in time grow large as well though it might take 50-100 years before they are cut down usually when a new unexploited forest is cut down. This way is not very profitable in the short term since it takes much longer to get less volume of wood in the same area.

    • @rrmerlin3402
      @rrmerlin3402 3 роки тому

      ​@@DragonitedVery interesting, I have never heard the theory of trees choosing their own growth rate, but they are living things.

    • @Dragonited
      @Dragonited 3 роки тому

      @@rrmerlin3402 It's not a matter of choice though almost all plants have a genetic predisposition to reach for sunlight. That's why plants that are covered grow fast and long to reach the sun. Though they do that by reducing the energy needed to produce clorophyll since it needs sunlight to make enough of it. That's why they become more yellow or even white untill they either reach sunlight or die trying. This is also why you can reduce weeds by covering them with enough material so that they will die before they have a chance to reach the sun. Plants with bigger seads can survive longer and go up though the material that is blocking the sunlight. Weeds that spreads with rhibosomees will however get around this since other connected parts of the plant will supply these with the necessary energy to reach the surface.
      Anyway theses long shoots are usually too weak to stand up straight in the beginning since the stem is less dense than normal. If you remove the material that keept it from reaching sunlight they tend to fall over and will only get stronger after they have started to get sunlight.
      It's basically the same principle in forest plantation but not as severe. Since there are many trees tight together and they grow they will block out sunlight from trees in their shade which will trigger the shaded trees to grow faster to reach enough sunlight. They will in turn shade other trees which will also start to grow faster and so on. This is why lower branches have usually died of at the lower parts of the tree and don't have any large branches. If you go to a tree plantation like this and walk on the south facing side if this is not blocked by another line of trees you will notice the trees that get more direct sunlight will be shorter and have more branches then the trees behind them. This is most noticeble at south facing beaches. This happens even in normal forest as well but not as noticeble. Pine trees closest to the beach are usually shorter but they have massive branches that spread out while the denser the forest is the straighter and taller the trees get.

    Such a cool project, the painted base annoyed me at first but seeing the final things it definitely was needed!
    Nice touch with the drawers, leaving the dovetails unpainted was an awesome idea. I'm definitely going to consider painted bases more often.

  • @simonr6793

    I only subscribed to your channel in the past couple of months, and one of the main reasons why is very simply because when you make something you alway's seem to have the camera at the best possible angles and you explain what you're doing and why. This alway's gives me the best way of following how you are doing the job inhand!. I've been interested in woodworking for the past couple of years but done nothing about it until now, I'm in the process of building a workshop just so I can watch and learn how to do asmuch as possible.
    That said it's why I found this a nobrainer when it came to subbing to your channel!!!.
    Keep up the good work Andy as you're helping me learn alot 👍. 💯% 👍🇬🇧.
    P.s I think it turned out great 👍.

  • @TheRedhawke
    @TheRedhawke 3 роки тому

    Beautiful table Andy. In case you haven't already been informed, the reason Long Leaf Pine growth rings are so close together is because it grew so slowly much like the ancient Redwoods or if you look at a nice piece of Mesquite out here where we live in the Hill Country you will see the same thing. Foresters later bred the Slash Pine which grew much faster but had strength issues and then they started pushing the Loblolly Pine which still grows strong in East Texas to this day. There are patches of Long Leaf Pine still standing in East Texas but not many. Several different varieties were tried, I even heard at one point they tried to make the Pine grow with a split trunk to double production but that didn't pan out well either. Anyway that is the story behind it from all I have ever been told. I grew up in the Pine belt of East Texas and worked in the forest industry until 2004.

  • @Sailor_Greg
    @Sailor_Greg 3 роки тому

    Awesome table and awesome video! Subscribed!
    Botanist here: The old growth trees have thinner growth rings because they are growing in a dense forest with competition for light, so they grow slowly. Second growth is essentially growing in a field, with optimal light and is often thinned to reduce competition; hence really fast growth and wide growth rings. Good for producing wood fibre quickly, but as you say, the quality is lower.

    The tighter rings in old growth come about because it grew slower. Makes the wood harder and stronger. The same reason the late rings are darker and harder than the early rings.
