Dovetailed Live Edge Waterfall Desk - Baby SLABRIPPER | Woodworking Builds
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- I have been designing this live edge walnut desk for months and I finally decided I had to stop planning and start doing. I was inspired by DiResta's Massive Dovetail bench and of course as with anything #liveedge, the work of #GeorgeNakashima. I knew I wanted GIANT #dovetails and an industrial modern spin with a steel leg. This slab is absolutely beautiful, so the biggest design challenge was just staying out of the way.
Inspired by Jimmy DiResta's Giant Dovetail Bench

Dude! Hahahaha I was watching thinking what a cool desk! Then all of a sudden my jig appears! So proud of you bud. That build is out of this world. Great work!
Dude, perfect application here. When you are cutting 2” dovetails in an 8/4 slab, you’ve got no room for error. Feel free though share the vid.
Someone's been watching Peter McKinnon. Really liked this video, had a different feel than most of yours do. Very good story telling!
I mean...ya Peter McKinnon is like my #2 youtuber, why do you say peter McKinnon? The snap match cut?
That, getting more angles of each procedure, the black bars at the end... It was good.
Hey Guys, thanks for watching! Any ideas what this thing is going to be? I look forward to seeing some of you at WorkBenchCon in Atlanta later this month. ALSO, WoodWorkLIFE merch is now available...www.wood-work-life.com/design/product/woodworklife-t-shirt/?v=7516fd43adaa
Walnut with sapwood is life.
I wholeheartedly agree. I was trying to use a different species, but kept coming back to American black walnut. She’s my favorite.
I'm 2 years behind on your vid. Awesome work(just recently saw your pc build with this desk)! I get a majority of my tools from Harbor Freight too.
And yes you should show vids of sanding. Show off your process of progress.
I will start making multi part videos, part 7 sanding...
Love how you show the process till you found something that worked. Nice job
Love your channel! Thanks for coming over and checking out mine! Keep up the awesome work!
RE: Your sanding ... while not totally interested in WATCHING (at regular speed for the entire piece, that is), it is nice to know which grits you went through and why. Or if you had any unorthodox method you had to employ because of weird angles or something. Love the channel!
You know you could use a piece of angle iron over the edge and some bar clamps to pull your joints together instead of pounding on them back and forth back and forth with them not lined up correctly. That just makes it harder on you. Next time try cinching it up wood angle iron and bar clamps
That turned out awesome, the shaping on the corner was a nice touch. Just found your channel, got a really cool style
Thanks so much, check out some of the other videos...they are not all god ;). I am working on it. Welcome to the WoodWorkLIFE family I hope to see you around in the comments.
This table is so awesome, dude!
Thanks for watching! It was great meeting you and picking your brain at WBC.
Well! Again I liked and posted on Facebook. I have watched this video a few times now and thought I should share it.
Thanks so much...this is my favorite project so far I have built. The video hasn’t been my biggest hit, but I loved it. It is a shame what I am going to have to do to this thing...
I like sanding a lot, I always wonder why people hate it so much. Have to say I got excited when I saw the recip saw and angle grinder being used. I think they are very underrated tools when it comes to woodworking. But why do you hate jigsaws? It's one of my favourites.
I hate them because the blades always overheat in hardwoods. They don’t have a deep enough capacity to be useful, they leave a raggedy edge, they behave unpredictably in a kerf re: feedrate, vibration...You can’t adjust the depth of the cut so you can’t cut on top of a workbench so work holding is a pain...I could go on and in.
Thank you sir for sharing your videos!! I'm pretty impressed with the ideas that ya come up with.
Thanks so much!
The unconventional tools you used were fun to watch. But...but...you had a live edge slab and didn't use any tinted epoxy fill...disorienting...
lol, I know I was really debating turning this table into a facebook viral video, and then I was like wait, maybe I can just make a desk :)
Pretty cool desk! I like the varying characteristic of using the square 2in tubing for a leg on the one side.. It's something different! I like it..
Thanks so much for watching!
I sub your channel awesome videos I like it and I hit the bell so I wont miss another video ok later :)
Nice man thank! Welcome to the WoodWorkLIFE family! I look forward to seeing you around in the comments! Keep up the good work on your channel too man!
Wow just wow! Beautiful desk and a very nice video. You are going places!
Thanks so much man, that means so much to me.
4:22 ...I really like the large dovetails.
feels bad man
there are not many shops in greater london where you can just rent out a belt sander for a day
heck there is not even a best buy, the closest we have is curry pc world andits rubbish, and it has no competitors
Really? In such a big city? Where do you get tools?
Awesome job. Looks great!
Amazing. Loved the editing and voice over in this one. moving out of the cloffice? love and respect Rick...
Thanks Jack I’ve been working on it. Ya wifey took over for the cloffice I moved down to the basement, where I belong...
Really cool table! I like that little part of the live edge that you carved out a bit more. I couldn't quite see how it would look when you were doing it, but I like it on the finished piece.
Thanks man, good seeing you in the comments. I wanted to blend the live edges of the two pieces for a smooth transition. Thanks for watching.
Nice job. Even with the huge dovetails, was racking a concern?
Not really, there is SO much surface area on those dovetails and the slab is 2+ inches thick. It is essentially the same as a splined waterfall table. It is just that much more important to cut the dovetails squarely.
For doing finishing work you can get a 10in Ryobi orbital buffer and use headliner spray-on adhesive in other words contact cement spray in a can applied to the terry cloth buffer pads that are available. Attached a 10in square piece of brown cardboard corrugated box. Then spray adhesive on to the cardboard box and the back of a sheet of sandpaper. Sand sand sand away and one that's all done you can also buff with plane brown paper bag glued right to the old sandpaper or pull the old sandpaper off and glue the paper bag to the terry cloth however you want to do it but it makes a very smooth finish on Walnut
You're a wild man Alan Harris...
@@WoodWorkLIFE thanks for noticing but generally most people to notice. Unfortunately I don't really think out of the box because I've never been in it. I just can't conform.
Awesome desk/ more to see in the future looking incredible love the figure and nice save with the bow ties and they look incredible. Looking forward to seeing what’s in store for the desk.
Nice job! Great look
Thanks man!
I like the combination of the steel and the slab, and that sculpting of where the two pieces meet gave it a really nice distinctive look. I really need to pick up one of those RZ masks, they look really comfortable.
At least for me...they're not comfortable. Maybe it's just that I have a big nose. ;)
Mine is fine and I have a pretty big nose, I think the key is buying the right size.
I have the XL! ha ha
it so cool
those dt's are fricken cool
Thanks!
Nice build!
Dude, THANKS. I love what you are doing over there on your channel too. I have another mixed media project coming up that you are probably going to dig. Thanks for watching, I have been a subscriber over on your channel for a while now. Keep up the good work.
Thanks much. Glad you are digging it. Are you by chance headed to Workbenchcon?
I sure am, I look forward to meeting you there.
Awesome, I'll see you there.
Count me in!
How much did the slab run ya
$190 I’ve got a guy
Top looks good, just put that one side against a wall. ;o)
She is very beautiful your table 😊, Rick, you do not have a Belt Sander RIDGID 18-Volt GEN5X Cordless Brushless 3 in. x 18 in .... I have one and I love it.
I need one! How does the battery last?
Wood.Work.LIFE. Good about 30 minutes continues with a 5ah
Beautiful slab. When you use PVA glue (water based) on a tight fitting joint it begins to swell the wood as soon as you put it on, making the fit even tighter. Polyurethane and hide glues won't do that and actually lubricate the assembly.
Thanks for the tip. So hide glue or epoxy would’ve been better.
Great work. It turned out beautiful. And nice job on the dovetails. My goal once it starts to warm up is to practice dovetails on scrap a few times a week.
Good skill building exercise, work on getting comfortable cutting to lines and cutting square lines. Once you train your body to know what that feels like it becomes easier.
Good work keep them coming
Thanks!
Lotsa fine work.
Thanks so much!
thank you . good stuff .
No problem! And now I’ve got a new desk.
Great video. Like the sanding. Appreciate high speed sanding! Neat to see entire process
Thanks for answering the question, sometimes it just doesn't seem interesting.
What respirator is that

David Beckwith yes you do ;-)
Awesome job Rick! 👍👊
Thanks Fred, good to see you around
