Love to see more of those denim tables
It was very generous of your wife and you to give away the best jeans tables from the previous video.
12:15 just use a pair of metal tweezers to avoid burning yourself... dude....
I appreciate the movie references!!!
@@NovelConsumer⚠️ God has said in the Quran:
🔵 { O mankind, worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, that you may become righteous - ( 2:21 )
🔴 [He] who made for you the earth a bed [spread out] and the sky a ceiling and sent down from the sky, rain and brought forth thereby fruits as provision for you. So do not attribute to Allah equals while you know [that there is nothing similar to Him]. ( 2:22 )
🔵 And if you are in doubt about what We have sent down upon Our Servant [Muhammad], then produce a surah the like thereof and call upon your witnesses other than Allah, if you should be truthful. ( 2:23 )
🔴 But if you do not - and you will never be able to - then fear the Fire, whose fuel is men and stones, prepared for the disbelievers.( 2:24 )
🔵 And give good tidings to those who believe and do righteous deeds that they will have gardens [in Paradise] beneath which rivers flow. Whenever they are provided with a provision of fruit therefrom, they will say, "This is what we were provided with before." And it is given to them in likeness. And they will have therein purified spouses, and they will abide therein eternally. ( 2:25 )
⚠️ Quran
Cam has cracked UA-cam honestly. The thumbnails are always incredible, I've never not clicked on a Blacktail video the second i see the thumbnail
Just need to convince a few million more people to agree with you 👊
and no clickbait!
@@BlacktailStudio At almost 2.7 Million subs....you're getting noticed. Keep up the great work.
And never stop calling out those who complain. I look forward to the end of your videos as much as Iike the content.
My brother... 43k views in an hour... i think he is right @BlacktailStudio lol!
0:12 I do like it, and I think it would make a great desk in my home.
You know what makes Cam’s videos so much better than other woodworking videos? It’s the constant yap. I don’t think I could survive without it.
Lmao he’s a professional yapper
Totally
His yapping is soothing. Other people I mute. 🤫 😂
Yap = narration.
Yapation, if you will.🤔
I usually hate yapping but he's so good at it, those 27 minutes flew by lol
This would literally clash with everything I own and i’d still put it in my house. It’s that cool.
Haha, I thought the same thing. All my furniture is garbage, and man would that thing look out of place. But who fucking cares?! It's sick!
I thought the same thing. I bet it looks even better in person.
This is fabulous and anybody who’s lucky enough to have this in their house should enjoy every moment of having it .
This has to be one of the most genuine woodworking channels. No clickbait thumbnails or titles, honest and funny commentary, and also great woodworking content.
love the channel but you gotta admit the titles can get really clickbait
Ya, I have to admit I try to get right up to the line of clickbait. Then put my toes right on the edge when I write my title.
@@willfox662 They're clever titles designed to draw clicks, but usually the term clickbait carries the connotation of dishonesty.
Odd question here. But what did you do with your scaled samples? I’d love to get one🥸
@@BlacktailStudiohanging 10 on the clickbait bro. Resistance is futile.
Guitar builder here! When we're doing the multi coloring ("Bursts" as they're called) it's a lot easier to start with the darkest color. That way you can sand back the areas where lighter colors will go until you get the level of transparency you want. You can then put the next lightest color across the WHOLE piece, which will give you a much more consistent color gradient. This way, you don't really have to worry about blending the different layers as you had to here (the blending comes from the sanding step). Rinse and repeat for subsequent layers going from darkest to lightest.
Isn't it dependent on the material you're using for the guitar and the type of paint?
@@AtotehZ He's not painting here he's dyeing. Dye is transparent so you can see previous layers. For paint you usually just spray on flood coats similar to how automotive guys do it.
As a guitar player, I appreciate the color, the shape, the finish... the belly cut is a very nice touch. This desk is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS, and I would absolutely put it in my house!!
there are so many people who would love this. I'm one of them!
I’ve been watching you for a while. I can absolutely say that 99% of your pieces I would completely put in my home! Most are stunning! The fact that you are so incredibly meticulous with making them look flawless is awesome. I hope the new owner truly appreciates all your hard work.
“That is more yellow than I was expecting”
Hilarious jump cut to the table! Great editing and even greaterer table!
I know he's been here a long time, but Scott is easily the best addition to this channel. His insights make you a better creator and I love his commentary.
The table actually looks like a flying Z Dean guitar. I’d like to call the dean table.
Absolutely one of the coolest desks I've ever seen. As an avid Dungeons and Dragon's player, this would be the BEST gaming table ever. I desperately want this gorgeous piece!
I have enjoyed all your videos! Thank you. I’m not a woodworker, I’m a grandmother of 10 and all I can say is you do amazing work, very skilled, very clean, and just the right amount of OCD 😊. I will also say that your wife must be both proud of you and a total boss for supporting you in your passion. Bless you both.
PS Scott rocks!
I clicked the wrong icon and ended up on this channel a few years ago, and I'm hooked. Not only do you build amazing stuff, but the entertainment, humor and irony is 100 of 100.
Your original denim desk 100% gave me that feeling of " wow! I've never seen anything like that and I want that in my house" that was definitely your Holy Grail item for me.
Same, his damascus (pattern welded) tables are insane, but that denim-v1 is just the goat! Happy shahin🎉
Same. I didn't like the Damascus ones though I could admire the workmanship.
You would love carbon fiber work.
yeah, exactly. was new but somehow still looked traditional (who doesnt love a good pair of levis?)
That’s amazing. My favorite project so far! Love the offset guitar nods ie; body contours and the sunburst stain. Reminds me of a Gibson Firebird or Fender Jazzmaster or Jaguar. I would love this in my house!
First time anyone has called me an artist lol! love it!
HAHAHA! The burn from the fill stick was hilarious. I love the interactions between Cam and Scott almost as much as the beautiful pieces that come out of Blacktail
I screamed "at least hold it with some pliers" at the screen.
I laughed a bit and winced a touch as well. I would have put a 2-3 inch wood screw in that wax stub to give myself some relief and not get burned.
There are extensions for charcoal or wax crayons in art supplies. Don't know if the radius will fit, but yeah better then burning your fingers off 🤗🤣
Just tack the old stick on the end of a new stick. Wax on....
Love that Cam casually dyes a beautiful pattern Into the wood, gets second thoughts, completely obliterates it, and repeats about 15 times.
The "omg I've never seen anything like that and I would love to have that in my house" applies to a goodly portion of the content I've seen on this channel.
bro i dont wanna exqgerate but i sware i cant stop watching these builds and i dream with having one of your tables in my home a dinner table i cant afford right now but as soon as i can i will have one of your tables in my dining room this is gourgeous keep up the great work one day we will talk
For what it's worth - I think your voice overs are freaking awesome! They are the main reason I watch your videos start to finish without even skipping once.
And......OMG - I haven't seen anything like that table and I really want it in my house!!!
I agree. Some videos the voice overs get annoying. But I feel Cam has found the perfect balance.
We just discovered him and immediately liked him! 😊
I agree. Cam’s voice keeps me tuned in to the end on every video! 💕
I wanna add a new category to your projects: "it's awesome and I want it, but my home isn't worthy" ! This piece is PHENOMINAL 🎉🎉
Likewise. I would love to have this piece but it would be wasted in my house where my current IKEA desk languishes in an unseen corner. I would have to buy a new house with an office off the entryway so I could show off the desk to everyone.
Absolutely gorgeous and the second table base was the way to go.
I think the Table is absolutly beautiful... So hell yes I would put it in my house.
The voice over is at least 50% of the quality of your video. Good humor and humility, it’s awesome. And I would love to have a desk like that. And that little round blue table is amazing.
Keep making video I’ll keep watching here in France.
I lost my Dad last week and had shown him a couple of your videos while he was in the hospital. He thought you were hilarious with your self-deprecating sense of humor and was genuinely impressed with the projects he saw.
Thanks for that, Cam.
I am so sorry for your loss, yet glad that you had a relationship with your father. I just want to say that I just prayed for you, and thank you for sharing this, too.
Good share my man. Sorry for your loss. Thats great u got to be there with him towards the end.
Dang man, so sorry to hear that. Thank you for saying that though.
Sorry for your loss and thanks for sharing your experience
Rest in Peace to your Pops. Feel their love and stay strong.
I would definitely put this in my house! That color is awesome and I use a sit stand desk for work! Best of both worlds !
I like the fact that you are honest in your builds. I have watched a few of them and have enjoyed all on them. And as for if I would put this in my house Yes I would. My wife would love it and give her a nice place to do her VBS and church videos.
I love how these woodworking youtubers are friends and promote each other.
As a south african living in the UK. This table automatically made me think of the african sunsets I miss so much. I would love to have this table in my home office. This table is a masterpiece. You are so talented.. 😊
I would absolutely have this beautiful piece in my house. Anyone who wouldn’t shouldn’t be trusted.
Scott deserves a raise
"Sometimes you just can't improve on what nature did perfectly."
Cam, I'm blushing! You're too kind, but honestly I'm here to watch some woodworking just like everyone else. 🙏
Yes I would put this table in my house! My 22 year old grandson is a gamer and I would love to win this for him. He lives here with me and his dad. He doesn't have a room of his own, and our living room is his bedroom. I'm disabled and I spent last year in the hospital more than I did at home. My health is failing and I would love to do something for him before I pass away. I can't afford to do anything great and I have watched quite a few of your videos and I really love your work. I love the banter between you and Scott. I'd rather hear you talk about what you are doing than just watch someone make things with no audio. It shows that you have a personality and are a great guy. This table is so beautiful and I have never seen anything like it. Thank you for sharing and letting me share with you ☺️❤ Peace and Blessings to you and your family.❤
Oh my goodness Catherine I’m so so sorry to hear about your health. I will be praying for you. Do you know Jesus as your personal savior? Once we die we either go to Heaven or hell and Christ loves us so much that he died for our sins so we could be saved. The Bible says if we believe in our heart and confess with our mouth that Jesus Christ died and rose from the dead 3 days later and is Lord we will be saved. Believe Christ paid for your sins personally and when you stand before God the Father you will be justified because of the blood of Christ. None of us could ever earn heaven on our own. We all deserve hell, but Christs offers us the gift of eternal life!
@@Zacharythorsen I do believe in Jesus Christ and that He died for our sins and through Jesus is the only way to see Heaven. Thank you for your prayers. May God bless you and your family as well 🙏❤️🩹
Stunning! I can absolutely see this as a workstation in my audio engineer husband's home recording studio. It's unique and so beautifully crafted. Bravo!
Those 'fish sticks' are a great tip! Thanks!
****Something I discovered a few years back works quite good. I get big sheets of thin box board(cereal box like and thickness) from pet stores, farm supply shops, Costco. They are used to separate layers of bagged goods when stacked on pallets. I lay them on the floor and tape a stick of chalk or charcoal pencil or Sharpie marker on the end of a 4-5' stick. Use this to do sweeping arcs for curves when you don't want/need perfect radii. You can keep your hand and arm tucked tight to your body to keep it steady and swivel at your knees and hips. Sweeping kinda fast actually gives better results. Do a bunch of arcs and use a different color to go over the arc you like best (tape the other color to the other end of the stick so you don't have to move and forget which arc you wanted ) Once done, the box board cuts easy with scissors for a template. Less wasteful than wood and it's free!!!
Those colors are stunning! Thanks for the vid!
The 'body relief' really makes the table pop. This table would fit so well in a recording studio with guitars hanging on the wall next to it!
I just thought the exact same thing
💯
as a childcare provider i have had many kindergarteners come through my door and i can honestly say i would happily hang that piece of art on my fridge any day. even the testers would make great coasters or sandwich boards...thanks for sharing your process, i always enjoy.
Cam, me personally I'm amazed at you and your work I would call you an Table artist!!!!!!!! keep up the great work....
Absolutely beautiful. Of COURSE we'd love to have this in our home. ❤
Got to love your humility. A design teacher once told me no one ever talks about Michaelangelo's endless mistakes and failures. That keeps me sane.
NEVER STOP CREATING SOMETHING COMPLETELY NEW! That is the formula of success.
Beautiful piece of furniture. Please continue making great videos. And yes, never seen anything like this and I would love it in my office.
Beautiful piece that I would 100% have in my house. It reminds me of a sunrise.
Absolutely love that you aren't just a woodworker, but also an artist and likes to try new stuff!
I think it is very neat that you can take a piece of nature and add to it and end up with such a beautiful piece of art. I know the perfect place for it.
Cam & Scott’s chemistry as a duo gets better and better.
I actually am redoing my whole house and I really would love to build my office around this desk. Love how you didn’t give up on the color scheme. Awesome!
My wife and I just starting watching and are now binging your channel.. Shoutout from southwestern Ontario!
Usually I don’t like the pieces you build. I’m not a fan of epoxy tables. But I always enjoy watching you building them - the expertise, the craftsmanship, the elaborate finishing process and how you cope with problems and mistakes.
There is an exception to every rule: Being a hobby woodworker and a guitarist I‘d really love to have this specific table in my home office.
Your strength is not that you always know what you are doing. It's that you are not afraid to try and have the confidence that you can fix/change whatever you dont like. I love your work, the commentary, the education and most of all, your sense of humor.... Keep it up. I don't even do wood working and you are one of my favorite channels
My son would absolutely love this!!! Beautifully done.
Accidentally making one of the coolest looking desks ever. I would appreciate a desk that looks like that.
Cam, your narrative is second to none, as is your humour and your selfdeprecation and your honesty. I'm a software engineer and I could rewrite your narrative to fit quite a few of my projects.
You created an amazing color fade table! I would absolutely love to have this in my home. I love your honesty and willingness to share your process with us. Thank you!
Perfect table to plan a dungeons and dragons session at!
I love the collaboration with four eyes. Would like to see more of that. Very different styles, but they come together well.
I agree, Foureyes & Blacktail are 2 of the best YT build/designing channels. I love Jonny Builds too!
This is definitely one of the projects that was unique and most people would love in their house. The guitar theme was also another awesome way to touch another community.
I love that desk. Prettiest desk ive ever seen
My eldest son 11yrs old would love this. I would love it in his bedroom 🙌
I am a old school gamer and I would love to have this in my house. It is something I would drag visitors to show off. Great work
My husband is a musician and plays bass, and many other instruments. This table would be a great piece for him. Also, I can appreciate your denim table top. I’m dealing with breast cancer right now and I would love to have that table top as my side table for my crochet projects. You are absolutely a true artist! My husband is so much like you. He has created lots of things for me due to being disabled for the last 20 years. Have a great day and thank you for being you!
I absolutely love this table and would love it in my house. I love its title of Dragon’s breath table too. Dragons fascinate me so my living room is designed by my husband to be dungeon like. This table would be perfect in that room.
You’re always selling yourself short, Cam. You’re a much better designer than you give yourself credit for. Your work is timeless and unique to you.
If I had this in my home I would never leave my desk. This is a beautiful top and came out amazing. You are too critical on yourself, you always knock projects out of the park. Good job on this one!
Im shocked anyone gives negative feedback on your projects. The stuff you create is just insanely gorgeous. This table is probably my favorite table to date. Looks incredible.
Absolutely love it xx
If nobody else would take it into their house, I will gladly take it. I freaking love it!
My grandfather was a woodworker as well, great to watch someone that enjoys what they do, reminds me of him … would definitely put it in my house, cheers from Brazil
Simply Amazing! Yes, you are an Artist! That’s truly a Beautiful Piece of ART! I would be proud to call it mine & it would definitely go in the office!
That looks SO awesome!
Though I do have to disagree...Purple is an amazingly beautiful colour.
The state of Louisiana agrees
You are most definitely an artist and not a scam artist! Artists do not have to be able to draw. The care, attention to detail, preparation and innovation in the way you apply colour is awesome.
This is the coolest table to date. Such a wild blend and it is beautiful. This would look great in any home. Nice job!!!
What an amazing piece. Truly a piece of artwork and an office desk to beat all office desks. The mixture of the maple and of dragons breath burst is amazing. Great work.
My wife would absolutely love that as a stand desk for work. Holy crap that’s gorgeous! Outstanding work yet again sir.
I'm a photographic artist, and I am in love with this design. I think you are more of an artist than you give yourself credit for. When I watch your videos I see art being created. The way you approach is only further evidence of that. Personally, I can see myself sitting at it, editing images, and it would just brighten my mood to do my own work. SOOOOOO. I love it. I want it! I can definitely see it in my home. I can go one step further and say that this desk speaks to me.
Agreed
I would absolutely love this in my house. I love it. I just got a new job after returning to school at 38 (now 42), and was hired as an engineer. I have to buy a new desk for remote work at home and this would be absolutely perfect.
I would happily put any of your tables in my home. They are always interesting, and beautiful.
Cam's Honesty in his projects are just seriously on point. Love the way he just states it like it is and keep pushing through no matter how the result turns out. It is this method of learning knowledge that takes a professional to the next level.
Excellent "Silence of the Lambs" depiction. No explanation needed!
As always, stunning work.
This might be one of the most beautiful tables I've seen you build. It looks amazing!
Love the desk! I'd have to redecorate the room to put it in, but that would make it more fun! I appreciate the bloopers at the end. I speak publicly every week and it's intimidating when we think there are people who speak perfectly, because I definitely don't!
Very nice piece! Just so you know, I’ll never get tired of watching the walnut and black epoxy tables. Your walnut and brass desk is still my favorite piece.
I am a guitarist with over 30 years of playing and I also play PRS guitars. This desk speaks to me on so many levels. I would proudly have this in my house. Quite frankly this would be my dream desk. You absolutely nailed this. Great job as always.
That sigh at the end of the voiceover bloopers really got me. Been there.
I love your honesty. Its always an adventure when entering a place of unknown! I would put this table in my house for sure!
I’m from England and I watch one of these videos every night before bed. Every single piece I’ve ever seen you make I would definitely have in my home, the attention to detail and the craftsmanship in each piece is awesome.
I realise it’s a long shot but I would be ecstatic if you chose me to give that table a home for life 🫡🙌🏽🙌🏽✊🏼
The great thing about watching Cam work is just watching him work. He turns out great projects, some better then other, but they all look great in their own right.
The second thing.. I love how dry you are with your humor. My god man. Never change. I dig when you and Scott are going back and forth. You all seem to feed off each other well. IDK who is going to win this table but my house would wear that with pride.
That desk is badass looking AND functional! It's perfect!
That table/ desk is legit I would definitely rock that in my house. Excellent
Nice table! It's refreshing that you're not shy to admit when you're figuring stuff out as you go.
So I was an OK hobby woodworker who has now at 38 quit my job and started a 2 year fine wood working course where I am in the early stages of learning "Proper" wood working.
Strangely this has given me a new appreciation for Cam's work. He, as he very very regularly says, is NOT an excellent woodworker, but he has taken something kind of easy and slightly looked down on - The Epoxy Table - and turned it into actual art. Epoxy tables are two a penny on UA-cam, and yet once a month or so, this bald genius finds some way to turn the woodworking equivalent of a G-Wagon (bought by millionaires, big, expensive and literally tacky) and makes something that could go in Sotheby's. Fair play tbh.
Amazing, the creativity that would happen at this table!
That is by far the most incredible table and woodworking piece that i've ever seen. Love your work
I'm a truck driver, and yes I would put this in my home. I love the colors of that dragons breath. The stiale of the top is very functional. The standup sit leg system works well also . Great job.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😎
So I adore this. Not only would I put it in my house I'd use it as my work desk which I would be at often. And knowing you colabed with another one of my favorite channels makes the gears in my head start turning. Thank you for your artwork. You inspire so many.
what i like most about these builds is you admit your flaws when you dont know what your doing. theres really no one above you saying this is how it should be done, its mostly trial and error and learning from time with the help of people giving tips along the way. but overall the results are always stellar and above and beyond what the majority of people can do
I'm digging your creative process that includes collaborating with your buddies. It's no small thing finding the right people who are okay about being really honest with you. Saves you time, money and energy. Speaking of honesty, Hell yeah, this desk is beautiful. Loving the graduated flame effect. For anyone winning this desk, it'll surely brighten their day and their workspace and, help them stay passionate about whatever work they do. Well done, Cam! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Incredible! As a firefighter, I can tell you that the blending of those particular colors truly looks like fire! Well done!!
I loved this table and would actually put it in my house. Well not just this, any of the tables you've done so far.
You're a real artist bruv, fantastic work! Love your content.
I would absolutely put this desk my house. I think it's beautiful! It would be an honor to sit at a desk every day that has craftsmanship, hard work and the artistic process.
Honestly, i think this is my favorite piece I've ever seen you make...we made cars in wood shop when I was in high school. While everyone else had a natural wood look I painted mine a fire red and black... everyone hated it but I loved it. It's a beautiful desk
