This video was supposed to be a before and after cleaning shop tour but turned into showing a messy shop and building two tables.......that's how things go for me. One of my income sources is building and selling farm style dining tables. I sell through a store as well as directly to customers. Both of these tables are store bound. I tried to give some tips and talk over a few details that normally get left out but also just let the video go, showing work without music or talking. Feel free to watch it all or skip around, it's a long one.
Thanks for watching. - Навчання та стиль
This was SO educational. I'm thinking that first top is going to look horrible with cherry and walnut together, and not even in even amounts or layout!!! But then you sold it in ten minutes. I'm stunned. The world is full of all kinds of people who like different types of things!!!!! Huge important lesson for someone trying to do this as a business.
Finally...someone found a proper board stretcher!! Good stuff man!
Nice 😏
That's a functional shop, stuff gets done 😁
The clean "stage" shops have the vibe of "you're cleaning more than you're building". Own it.
It is sheer joy watching a master craftsman work wonders with what you got. It reminds me of an old adage we use to say-Sell what is available today! I worked for RadioShack for 29+ years.
I'm super impressed with your trash-bagging skills!
I built a small bench like that...short pieces glued, screwed, and biscuited together...came out beautiful. I was leary as, of course, people will be sitting on it all the time...so far, so good! Love your videos...found you looking for a farm table build years ago...now I watch all the channels!
One of the things really like about this guy..is he “rigs” things to make them work the same way I do...might not look great when being done...but if it works....do it! Such an impressive young man in all he can do! 👍🏻
And THE TABLE IS GORGEOUS!!!!! Love the different woods on there 👍🏻❤️👍🏻. Nailed it again! 🤣
I made one of your tables. It looks nice and gives me personal satisfaction that I milled and turned everything, Even cut the tree down. Made my own lumber and dried it in my solar kiln. Made the table base in just a few days. Only took me a couple years to get around to making the maple top. Same thing just a couple days to complete the top. Cant rush into these things . . . ha. Thanks for giving me the inspiration to make the project. Love your videos.
Very cool, I'd like to see it. Feel free to email some pics, email on UA-cam page and website.
That patchwork table came out way better than I Invisioned at first.
Brother, you are one fine builder. I too thought the cherry and walnut wouldn't look that great together especially in the 1-2-1-2 format but that looked tip top! So nice. You are also a really smart businessman turning "one mans scrap" into "another mans treasure" love your videos.
The 'Wood coat of many colours'table was beautiful! Thanks !
Thank you so much for posting a video of your dirty shop. Makes me feel much better about mine.
You are a man of many talents for sure. Reminds me of my father, he did wiring, plumbing, carpentry, made gun stocks, made replacement gun parts out of metal, made tools to work with (like a lift for sheet rock long before someone marketed it), worked on automobiles, felled trees, built homes and a log cabin, raised several gardens, was a constable, was in army air corps during WW11, made toys, and could mend a broken doll or someone's broken heart. You have that calmness about you like he did. I love your videos. God Bless YOU!
"Make it strong, make it right, blah, blah,blah" -You're like the confucius of furniture making. Good video, love this table just a beautiful piece.Thank you.
I love clean stuff and watching someone clean, I just hate doing it myself..
I hate looking at my nasty workspace and absolutely despise the process of cleaning it... but when it is done I am a GOD!
Deutschehordenelite Agree. I race from one project to another with no time in between. I need a valet ...
@@AnEvolvingApe The trick is to clean as you go. And make sure to end your day a half hour early to tidy up
I would love to see a detailed how-to on your clamp rack set-up. I'd like something like that.
Yes please!
Days like those that probably help you keep your sanity when you switch up your home reno days. Enjoyed the vid!
Yes, when I was only making tables I was dying to do something different, now that I am mostly working on houses, I wish I was making tables....it's a struggle.
Aaah, so that's where it all happens! Work spaces should be a mess, shows you're workin. I really like the patchwork table bud, lots of character to it. That and originality are what people buy. Love your vids, keep em coming!
Thanks
The top looks great. I didn't think so before the finish went on, but after the finish - wow, really nice.
Great to see you back in the shop!! I've missed it. Cheers for the update.
That glue rack is epic! Thanks for the video.
I was admiring that first table, but the last one, wow! Beautiful.
That patchwork table looks wonderful. Great way of using up scrap wood and just a great, different look for a table. Thank you!!
Great to hear that your table sold so quickly. Great looking work you did with it.
That table is absolutely gorgeous!
Loved the quilted table tops........keep up with your creativity on what you hand craft, you have such a talent for it and also with the homes you have done make overs on.
I love the two table tops, beautiful work.
The both tables were beautiful! Thanks for sharing your ideas on how to join the wood together!
Nothing wrong with that table top! It looks like you put enough dominoes and dowels in it. It will hold!!
I've seen a similar to yours table top clamping jig, so I'm echoing a quick "walk through". I like the idea of this being vertical: saves space and I think it allows the weight of the wood to settle in, with clamping force, but not that much.
Great work!! 👍
You are very talented and creative. You've helped me with some ideas for my projects. Thanks for sharing.
Yay! Someone who has a wood shop that looks like mine, as in actually used and not just for insta perfect :) Great to see another vid man, always love em.
Well, I feel a lot better about the state of my shop now.
Got to love a quick sale. Table turned out nice without a lot of time invested
Love that table press, very nice, must streamline the process so much!
Always enjoy checking out what you're building next. Your shop looks same as mine....worked in.
I was taught to clean up the employer's shop each night before I left. I did really good at keeping my shop like that most of the time. But, when I got busy, I'd take short cuts like sweep up and leave a few tools out :) As long as the busy days went on, more and more tools left out. Then as I got to the end of busy days and made the big push to finish everything, I could go days w/out even sweeping :( It became a mess.. That's when I did the full on , back to clean job :) Start new, breath, feel good about walking in , in the morning :) I'd like to think most ppl are like that :)
I love your tables and agree w/the idea of using random lengths & different woods to eliminate scraps :) Great idea.
Love the video and looking forward to part 2.
Sincerely .............................
Steph
@@Melian_Dialogue ... great point :) I'm w/you about saving scraps. :) Also, I hope someone pays for it :) lol :) Some day :)
Love those old DeWalt radial saws. I worked with an old 16” for a long time. Thing took so long to wind down, we used a handheld wood brake for it 😆. Loved that saw.
Beautiful work as always !
LOVE THE LAY OUT.THE TABLE CAME OUT VERY NICE
Excellent video. Let's see more table builds and further detail in the selling process!
Great tour 👍
Oh wow...Beautiful table.
Always enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for sharing them. As I've said before - You are a man of many talents! Oh yeah... great looking table!
Very nice one again! Thank you for sharing! 👍😁
Beautiful tables and nice video.
The table looked great!
Both tables look great and very ingenious with the scraps. My call for a name for it is Joseph’s Coat: it looks wacky but it looks great 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Been missing these videos from you. Thanks for posting again.
What a great jig for your tables tops!
I wish my shop was that organized, I have been looking or my Rivet gun for 6 weeks. It will show up one day. Thanks for sharing.
If you ever want to find a long lost tool, do one of two things; 1. Go out and buy another one. The lost one will instantly appear. 2. Pretend you don't need it!! Again...it will magically show up.
Do you need any extra caulking guns??? DD
I have tons of caulking guns, the are excellent hiders.
Very Nice Work. Peace and Good Fortune to you and your family.
That table turned out fantastic.
I have been busy since last august with my furniture business. Im so busy right now its crazy. I have also had times where its slow i think the longest has been 4 months. I guess i have been very blessed. Would love to see a review on your workbench. Keep the videos coming still my favorite channel. I wouldnt have been able to build my first fsrm table if not for your channel
Both Nice tables, that 2nd table really nice.
Awesome table, I really like your radial arm saw.
Very pretty! Nice workmanship.
Nice vid my man! Did not skip ahead at all as I do in most other's vids. Great info and look into a couple of your days.
If I had the opportunity to choose, I would choose a patchwork table myself, I love the look of different woods together especially with a clearcoat to bring out the colors and grain! If I didnt already have 2 wood tables, I'd order a "scrap" wood table from you myself. You do amazing and quality woodworking!
Thanks
Holy moly he’s back!
I like the random look of the boards for the top. And what is a workshop good for unless you step over or trip on something.. LOL, The clamping rack is excellent very good idea. Peace
Walnut and cherry is a good combo....I love working with both
Like a lot of remarks before mine, my shop is just as messy, but that is a good sign as it is a working shop. pls keep posting your video's
I liked the table top better than I thought I would too. Nice!
You mentioned the Wynn dust/air filter and putting a link in the description .......
Love the videos. Great stuff.
Cheers.
Great video, keep up the grind!
Have you ever given it any thought about piecing all your small pieces into a checkerboard or chevron pattern? Customer should appreciate all that hard work with big bucks! Thanks again for taking the time out to share your endeavors.
It's funny what you say about random selling patterns. It was even the same in the restaurant I worked at in high school and through college. We'd have nights where damn near EVERYONE ordered gyoza appetizer in one variation or another. Then other nights when it was everyone ordering some other dish. It was always very odd, unpredictable and uncanny. It's like everyone collectively gets in a mood and it gets contagious in some silent way. Table came out so beautifully though, doesnt surprise me it sold before you got back home!
So glaaaaad I ran into your videos.
The final result looks nice asf!
We have the same problem with infrequency in some of our orders. I run a print shop and we're the only business in our town who can do foil impressions. We'll go months without ever touching our old Kluge press (1930's) and then we'll have a half dozen due in a week. I'ts crazy.
Love seeing your uploads.
Very good!!!
Very nice 👍
Great video. I really like the second "scrap" table. I love that vertical clamping setup. I also have a small crowded basement for a "shop" so this is inspiring. Please.....think about a dust mask to sand with.........We want you around to make more videos!! DD
I want a Festool Track saw like that. That's nice. But it's probably expensive so I'll keep using my circular saw and a 2x4.
I like your gluing jig. Nice table, good vid.
This is like my sewing room, which is always at its worst when I have a new big project to get done, hopefully your video will inspire me to start the pickup process! I don’t have a son but if I did I would pick you!
You can be my online mother if you'd like.

That’s a deal son!
@@thehomesteadcraftsman8975 I got near the end and was thinking "wait a minute, we haven't finished cleaning up the shop " then you mentioned part 2. ☺
Very nice design.
I can honestly say, that table was outstanding!!
Nice to see you upload today! My shop is also a mess but it's just a one car garage. No dust collection but just run my planer out into the driveway. Also, you're making me want to buy a festool domino!
The domino is very important in my shop, it is a money maker compared to doing traditional mortise and tenons making my table bases and works great for doing stuff like in this video.
@@thehomesteadcraftsman8975 yeah, I want to invest in one for that very reason. I've been using pocket screws but am wanting to transition to non metal fasteners, as I feel they're perceived as lower quality craftsmanship. They obviously serve a purpose but I guess it's just a person preference of mine.
Beautiful handiwork laying out the different pieces of wood in a nice looking pattern. Reminds me of Ishitani Furniture here on UA-cam. :)
Love the Radial Arm Saw i have four of them get a zero or negative bevel saw blade for that.
Love the video! I had to subscribe!!
Awesome table.
"As soon as I come in I'm stepping over stuff ". At least you can get in your shop!
I can always weasel my way in...but it does get bad.
@@thehomesteadcraftsman8975 '...weasel my way in...' - gives me vibrant and hilarious images :D
Just make sure your shop door opens to the _OUTSIDE_ - i frequently manage to *trap* myself, moving stuff around doing a project! 😅
Beautiful
Shower Curtain. Great idea!
Looks familiar. Thanks for posting.
We're friends now. Love your stuff!
missed you man
I love that table
A Belt and Suspenders... those pant´s aint going nowhere ; )
Just the reply I was going to make...an image thing...reliability
I like the underside of the table too!
That's a cool table.
I'm digging that glue-up rig.
Love watching you get some work done. If you need 6 more parts to clean the shop, that is great with me ;-)
that pocket hole + overlapping joints gives me ideas for how to make a table with all of this self milled ~4' long cherry I have from my parents yard.
On youtube there are two types of shops: 1) working shops 2) shops to make youtube videos. #2 appears to make up the overwhelming vast majority of shops. When you can eat off the shop floor...you're only making videos. Nice to see another working shop.
I think I spend more time cleaning my shop than actually working on it. Seeing your shop makes me anxious. Its like having a small rock inside my shoe.
You have an awesome channel, thanks for sharing :-)
Cool video thank you 👍🏻
Great job. I would be interested in how you made that clamping rack. Very neat.
Wow the last table was actually really beautiful.. I didn't like the first one as much but the last one was really cool.
