Changers?? Yeah Unsub! J/K!!!! :) I love the little table, it would come in very handy. You did an awesome job on those waterfalls and the hidden spline was a great idea! i'll be copying that one :) Definitely going to have to get me some Canary wood too! That stuff is beautiful!
@@3x3CustomTamar i agree about the natural beauty of that wood, and your design really puts it on display, too. AND who needs a Domino when you can make a spline like that! i'm sure it's 10x stronger than dominoes and your accuracy was spot on. nicely done!
j b thanks so much! I was planning on using a live edge walnut slab at first. Which would have been cool to have the live edge flowing down the shelf. But then I saw this canary wood and just had to use it
Canarywood is really interesting -- every color from yellow to green to vivid scarlet streaks. Plenty of chatoyance. Way back in teh olden days I built a four-piece entertainment center in canary and walnut. Probably be embarrassed to look at it today. :( But the wood is fine. Do be aware: like most tropicals, it is quite hard, contains more than a little silica in the grain, may present gluing challenges due to natural oils (like teak), and the dust can be irritating. Canary is one of the few woods whose dust really got to me: lungs and throat, but also dermatitis where it gets into your clothes. Smells like melting wire insulation when you cut it, too. I kept thinking my tools were burning up -- but it was just the wood.
I'm a woodworker and I stumbled on Tamar's channel a few videos ago. Not only is this girl seriously good at woodworking but she has such a beautiful aura and humble way of teaching. I also love that she doesn't try to cover up mistakes that we all make because that's how we learn. Great channel that we can all learn from.
I concur! Ive learnt so much from this channel in a short while. Moreover, watching this highlights just how inferior other woodworking channels are. Some of those guys just collect tools and "talk" a bunch. Or aren't actually very good at woodworking or interested in being good at it. Remarkable! I can't believe this content is free. What a time to be alive!!!
You are very patient and a true artist. Your videos are the best I have seen (and heard). Clear, concise and educational. I love when you also provide tips or show your mistakes!
You are always fun to watch. This table is beautiful. I couldn't explain to my husband the difference in cutting that miter for a waterfall & grain match versus any other. The subject came up because a few magazine videos we watched, didn't really show the cut, even though, they were supposed to be "about" waterfall miters. SO those usual video resourced were no help. As, soon as this video began, I KNEW you would explain it, and that you would explain exactly the way I was trying to You did not let me down. Thanks! I have to add; that 2 years after you posted this, Stumpy Nubs tackles that spline w/ a 3 minute video, a flick of his wrist, some blue collar magic & NO JIG! The YT algorithm, in it's wisdom, showed me both videos side by side in my feed 3 days after his video posted( 2 years after yours). Having watched his solution first; I kinda wanted to hop in my time machine & visit your shop when you began designing the jig.. But, the contrast in game plans definitely upped the entertainment factor, for me. And now i am sure to remember both methods when I need them. If you happen to see this comment on an 2 years old video, check out his solution in his video titled 'A clever technique for splined-bevel joints for mitered boxes'. ua-cam.com/video/_EgMRojTl5k/v-deo.html It's witchcraft I tell ya! Thanks again for the detailed help with the grain matching miter! 🔨Lisa♿
I know lots of people who have tools but lack the skill or the patience to improve. She is definitely putting a lot of effort and thought and creativity into all this stuff, keeping it educational AND entertaining 👍
Very nice! Also, as a woman, I appreciate it that you take your craft seriously, and aren't "sexing it up" to get clicks. Your videos are well thought out, well presented, and clear. After seeing some of the chuckle heads on UA-cam, I REALLY appreciate it.
I would've never thought of how to deal with that smallest middle section of the box, where u have the little gap at the underside of the jig!! Amazing Tamar. I would've get on with it, regret later when it doesn't fit properly, stare at it for hours and say lesson's learnt, don't do it next time just to comfort myself. Thanks for the video, love yr tactic when dealing with issues like that.
I'm impressed with your rare combination of wood working skills, how you explain (and figure out) what you do, and how your videos have the right pace and editing - not too fast, not too slow.
This is an awesome project. I like the design and use of a hidden spline for the waterfall effect. You've inspired me to build a similar version. Thanks!
Another good & cool project! I'm also a self woodworker. And it is satisfying to me to watch. Your skill & craftsmanship improve. But the most satisfying thing to me is. That when you make a mistake. You acknowledge it & even better. You don't "boo-hoo" about it. You simply get more creative and find a resolution to the problem. Excellent Mindset! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thanks! So awesome to hear. Yeah. If I pretended like every project was perfect and went according to plan I feel like it might discourage ppl who are just starting out
@@3x3CustomTamar Your Welcome! But as a woodworker, seasoned or rookie. We will always be faced with a challenge. Sometimes multiple challenges a day. It's how you handle & deal with. Those challenges that is important. Woodworking, carpentry, & construction isn't for everyone. And that's ok as well. They will just have to find something that is for them.👍🏾
perfect minimal piece. reduced to the simplest form that performs a common function, yet in a more integrated way not accommodated by traditional design, and has an unexpected style element to boot. Looks like it could unexpectedly become someones favorite for that 2nd thing alone. And well made! really enjoyed this one!
@@3x3CustomTamar I will. You will have to wait some months. For the moment, It is not possible to work. It will be a surprise when you will receive it. Thanks for your answer. Willy from Belgium.
Holy clampman... ;) lol Looks great... Plus tons of points to you... I have been woodworking for over 45 years and watch a lot of DIY UA-cam videos... I like how you explain what you are doing and how you solve problems, and your thoughts before, during and after the design, this will help people doing woodworking for the first time and show that you don't need to be a woodworking wizard to make awesome looking projects. And how to think outside the box... A lot of channels out in UA-cam land assume you know what you are doing and own every tool.
I can highly recommend Amana’s micro round over router bits to ease the edges of your woodworking projects. They are available in several very small radius’s.
I have no desire to build this particular table style, but I learned a few things to apply elsewhere. Always impressed by your technique and willingness to jump in to new things. Thanks.
@@3x3CustomTamar A good build with a bad sanding job is a crying shame. And I'm serious, I enjoy sanding and I do a lot of sanding at work when I scribe base or cabinet wall fillers/scribes. Getting a piece of base to fit to a fubared floor with zero gaps is highly satisfying. Yay sanding!!! LOL!
You have more common sense than most folks that post on UA-cam! I've been working wood for a long time but I'd have a hard time tackling this project! Looking forward to your next video!
I love what you do, young woman (I’m older than God). Believe me, over my 50 years of woodworking, nothing beats good old fashioned hand joinery. It takes time, it is fussy, but it is strong and oh so satisfying when one is finished. The spline is a great solution, but your project screams out for secret dovetails. Give them a try some day 😊.
At awe!!! Ingenious thinking out the box with that spline jig. The satisfaction felt when it turn out perfect. Why this project IMO says a lot about you. Fancy equipment turning out beautiful project doesn’t impress me, that should be standard. But standard equipment turning out beautiful projects is a different game altogether, you guys know what I’m saying yes. Its like Ferrari vs Honda. And this time Honda won. Wow!!
Thank you so much for this comment! I get a ton of comments where ppl say yeah, it’s easy with 40k worth of tools..... it’s really frustrating. So thank you!
3x3custom Tamar this is a beautiful piece. U should be very proud of ur work. I love seeing women hands on keep up the great work. An thank u for explaining. Girl I have never seen so many clamps lol. This was the first time I've seen or heard of a card scraper
Amazing work! I am from India, where seeing a lady carpenter is as rare as KOHINOOR (supposedly the most expensive piece of rock, currently sitting on the Queen Elizabeth's crown, originally from India though). I liked your work approach thoroughly! Lots of Respect to you LADY 🙏🙏
I really like your videos. I love the fact that you don't have music. I love comment and I love the sound of work in progress. So many people that are good at what they do just don't get it. Music does not work with woodworking videos. I also like your natural way to communicate. It feels like you talking to me and not selling to me. Lovit. Thank you for great videos. I will subscribe.
My UA-cam algorithm seems to be a huge Tamar fan! LOL! I keep stumbling upon your videos and always learn something new. You're a great teacher. I taught college (jazz studies) for 19 years, and I definitely wish I could have used your videos as a reference. Oh well, I'll settle for putting your tips to work in the shop!
It's great being back in town. Visiting relatives in the Big NYC. Wow! that city has changed. In all, I am glad viewing your educational vids! Great stuff, ma'am!
Your work is excellent. Your verbal instructions are spot on. Not to mention how interesting you make it. Thank you for not inserting silly jokes in middle of your builds. Well done.
It's a delight, for me, to see how safe you work, especially since I slightly touched the blade of the running table saw with my index finger this morning. (Just a skin deep scratch, could have been worse, but a good reminder of the importance of safety.) And the side table turned out great. In fact, I made a bookmark - I will have to make four of these next year or so.
Hey. I don’t usually comment but the mitre in this table is so great that I just had to. Also the hidden spline is a great way to join boards, and that’s a top tip about matching the grain. Keep up the good work.
I think that's the first time I saw Canarywood used in a project on UA-cam. I keep looking at my computer table that I had built out of Canarywood, Padouk and Purpleheart about 10 years ago. If your Canary has a lot of red in it, I would suggest accenting it with Padouk, they go together so well. I finished mine with satin water based poly to keep the texture on the desktop - so happy I did. If anyone decides to work with Canary wood, I would suggest experimenting with finishes before applying anything. The wood can appear dark if next to sap wood and using an oil based poly. That little strip of sap wood really looks good on your table's edge. Great job!!
You’re so good! Not just at the actually wood work but the explaining as well. I wish I had all the gear, I really want to follow along, Bob Ross style!
Tamar totally killing it once again! So cool to see all of your new, better quality tools,too! I can't wait to see the day when all of the tools are Festool, you deserve them.Great design, execution and explanation as always!
Thanks so much! So funny. Some ppl hate when I use higher quality tools. For some reason they think the project is impossible bc they don’t have that tool. Oh well 😂
@@3x3CustomTamar In today's world there will always be a few detractors, don't let them interfere with your goals and aspirations.You're doing fine without their input.
I love to see your videos. , they show how creative you are. As for someone without all those electric tools, you do extremely well. I will make something similar to place at the side of my couch, to put a light and my whisky on at the end of the day. Thanks, Willy from Belgium.
The only thing bad about this video is how easy you make it look. I am gonna try this project.....one day. I hope it turns out as wonderful as your did!
What a beautiful and functional table and what a creative design. Your narration is concise and to the point. Even a rank amateur like me can follow the steps as you lay them out. You do an outstanding job of problem solving as you go through the build. I envy that ability. Another great project. Thanks.
I really do like how you instinctively use clamps and think about the safety of the cut you're making. As somebody who got injured on a table saw it's just one of those things I noticed as I watch other people work with wood on UA-cam. It's one of the reasons I subscribe and stay with your channel.
LOVE this project. The spline joint was a brilliant touch and the waterfall effect is executed perfectly. Also my family called them "channel changers" growing up. Totally just rocketed me back to being 6 and trying to find the "channel changer" in my sister and I's giant mess of toys we brought into the living room!
You are such a good problem solver. The video,editing, and voice over, are such are such a pleasure to view. Thanks for taking the time to make and share. You make it all look so easy!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍
As a former woodworking apprentice, something I learned pretty ealry on is to use an additional flat and strong piece of wood to go between the clamp and the work piece. This helps distribute the clamping force more evenly and avoid nasty kinks in the work piece from clamping. If you didn't have those kinks, you may be fine without the extra piece That table looks gorgeous btw ;)
This piece is both satisfyingly simple and alarmingly complex at the same time! I am putting it on my list of must-tries even though I have no place for it in my house. Absolutely love it!
Tamar, I first came across your work with the vaneer LP cabinet (I left the comment about Derek and the Dominoes). I so rarely leave comments on anything like this (I generally think the internet is a sewer), but your work is so inspirational. Keep it up! Can't say enough how awesome it is to see what you build, and I love the videos. Rock on!
I concluded that I really like to see how you work on each project you do I appreciate the care you put into the detail that you show in each of the different processes lasts Congratulations!!!
I picked this video at random, but just wanted to say how much I enjoy everything of yours that I've seen so far. I love your level of detail, the way you include your thought process, and the clean no-nonsense narrative. Great stuff, and thank you for the wonderful videos. (...and fwiw, I call remote controls "phasers"---like in Star Trek; just point and shoot...) I am subscribed and will happily recommend your channel to other practiced-beginners like myself. Be well.
A really elegant design and solution. I will be building one of these as soon as I get my shop back in order. I shared this video with a friend who liked the design as well. Fortunately he has a Lamello Zeta P2 and he offered to loan it to me so the miter edges will be less work for me... Very informative and creative solutions as always. Ron
Great project. As a stairway designer/fabricator, I appreciate your ingenuity to adapt & overcome during fabrication/assembly. Refreshing views/techniques are always fun to watch & learn! Thanks again & looking forward to the next project(s)!
Another awesome project !!! Tip... I build large wood beams and have to clamp miters all the time so what I created was a 45 clamp block. Just use one of the cutoffs (45) and screw a flat piece to the cutoff. Cutoff placed short side of the miter up, cut the flat piece the same width as the long side of the miter and glue and screw them together. you can the just lay them over exposed miters and clamp away.
Wow! This is incredible. I was today years old learning canary wood looks like that. Fantastic work. That made me happy you left the router sled trouble shooting in. Thank you.
Excellent wood choice Tamar. I think I'll be making one of those for my wife, I know she'd love it. she currently uses one of those tilting notebook stands on a tubular frame but I think your end table is better. Thanks again Tamar, really enjoy your work. Allan
Thanks so much! Yeah. I was originally going to use a live edge walnut slab but then saw this and I had to use it. Would be cool with a live edge though.... hope your wife likes it!
Hi Tamar, Well, my wood working skills aren't to your level but I'm going to give it a try. Keep on bringing us all good ideas and ways of achieving quality products. You encourage and inspire us to give it a go and here in Australia, It's our firm goal to always give it a go. Allan
@@3x3CustomTamar i just have one complaint, every time you come out with a video. it hits my pocket book. i have to run down to rocklers and hand them my credit card.
this was such a cool design and video -- and i learned about some tools, like the center-finding dowel jig, and dowel points, that i had never even heard of! :)
You are so smart. Brilliant little moments of creativity are what add up to this kind of result. Every step has some sort of different innovation to make it work out right. Love your vid’s.
I tried this table, and found the video very helpful, thank you. I didnt spline the joints, I dont expect they'll see a lot of load, but we'll see.... I used a beautiful mahogany board, and the wood looks great, but it definitely would have been more in the waterfall look if I had found one with more color difference across the grains, like your canary wood. thanks for the idea.
Well done! Love the waterfall effect from the continuous grain. I'm not sure I would have noticed that ordinarily but now I definitely would and know to look for it. Wonderful!
The Jig is up! You're a Jig-a-lo. You stay getting Jiggy wid-it. Ok, I'll stop. Seriously you are continually creative and inspiring. Always enjoy and learn from your videos.

Canarywood is really interesting -- every color from yellow to green to vivid scarlet streaks. Plenty of chatoyance. Way back in teh olden days I built a four-piece entertainment center in canary and walnut. Probably be embarrassed to look at it today. :( But the wood is fine. Do be aware: like most tropicals, it is quite hard, contains more than a little silica in the grain, may present gluing challenges due to natural oils (like teak), and the dust can be irritating. Canary is one of the few woods whose dust really got to me: lungs and throat, but also dermatitis where it gets into your clothes.
Smells like melting wire insulation when you cut it, too. I kept thinking my tools were burning up -- but it was just the wood.

It's great being back in town. Visiting relatives in the Big NYC. Wow! that city has changed. In all, I am glad viewing your educational vids! Great stuff, ma'am!
Haha yeah.... it’s changed quite a bit
@@3x3CustomTamar Indeed it has...
Your work is excellent. Your verbal instructions are spot on. Not to mention how interesting you make it. Thank you for not inserting silly jokes in middle of your builds. Well done.
Glad you like it!
Another home run lady , great table .
Thanks so much!
Believe me i loved you from the first day i saw you and i am still loving you everytime i watch your videos 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 god bless you tamar 💓💖
Great job young lady. Eye of the tiger.
Thanks! ☺️
It's a delight, for me, to see how safe you work, especially since I slightly touched the blade of the running table saw with my index finger this morning. (Just a skin deep scratch, could have been worse, but a good reminder of the importance of safety.)
And the side table turned out great. In fact, I made a bookmark - I will have to make four of these next year or so.
Oh no! Glad you’re ok! I def try my best to keep all my fingers. Thanks so much! When you build them, please share!
@@3x3CustomTamar Thank you for your thoughts. Unfortunately, I have very little time to build stuff, and zero patience to shoot the making.
Hey. I don’t usually comment but the mitre in this table is so great that I just had to. Also the hidden spline is a great way to join boards, and that’s a top tip about matching the grain. Keep up the good work.
So glad you liked it. Thanks!!
I think that's the first time I saw Canarywood used in a project on UA-cam. I keep looking at my computer table that I had built out of Canarywood, Padouk and Purpleheart about 10 years ago. If your Canary has a lot of red in it, I would suggest accenting it with Padouk, they go together so well. I finished mine with satin water based poly to keep the texture on the desktop - so happy I did. If anyone decides to work with Canary wood, I would suggest experimenting with finishes before applying anything. The wood can appear dark if next to sap wood and using an oil based poly. That little strip of sap wood really looks good on your table's edge. Great job!!
Thanks so much! Such an interesting grain pattern.
You’re so good! Not just at the actually wood work but the explaining as well. I wish I had all the gear, I really want to follow along, Bob Ross style!
Haha! Maybe one day
My lady, you're awesome!
Thanks!
Tamar totally killing it once again! So cool to see all of your new, better quality tools,too! I can't wait to see the day when all of the tools are Festool, you deserve them.Great design, execution and explanation as always!
Thanks so much! So funny. Some ppl hate when I use higher quality tools. For some reason they think the project is impossible bc they don’t have that tool. Oh well 😂
@@3x3CustomTamar In today's world there will always be a few detractors, don't let them interfere with your goals and aspirations.You're doing fine without their input.
I love to see your videos. , they show how creative you are.
As for someone without all those electric tools, you do extremely well.
I will make something similar to place at the side of my couch, to put a light and my whisky on at the end of the day.
Thanks, Willy from Belgium.
Would love to see it when you’re finished! Thanks so much! Appreciate that!
The only thing bad about this video is how easy you make it look. I am gonna try this project.....one day. I hope it turns out as wonderful as your did!
Have fun with it!
What a beautiful and functional table and what a creative design. Your narration is concise and to the point. Even a rank amateur like me can follow the steps as you lay them out. You do an outstanding job of problem solving as you go through the build. I envy that ability. Another great project. Thanks.
That’s so awesome to hear! Thanks so much! I love how simple and functional this table is
Wow now that came out so beautiful I love the grain in this wood !
Thanks!
I really do like how you instinctively use clamps and think about the safety of the cut you're making. As somebody who got injured on a table saw it's just one of those things I noticed as I watch other people work with wood on UA-cam. It's one of the reasons I subscribe and stay with your channel.
👍👍
Just a quick tip. Sometimes using clear packing tape can give you a tighter joint because it's able to stretch & increase tension.
Love those pants!😉
Thanks!
The flow of the grain is excellent, but then again, you do excellent work.
Thanks so much! ☺️☺️
LOVE this project. The spline joint was a brilliant touch and the waterfall effect is executed perfectly. Also my family called them "channel changers" growing up. Totally just rocketed me back to being 6 and trying to find the "channel changer" in my sister and I's giant mess of toys we brought into the living room!
So funny! It’s such a rare thing for people to call it that!
You are such a good problem solver. The video,editing, and voice over, are such are such a pleasure to view.
Thanks for taking the time to make and share. You make it all look so easy!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks so much for the feedback! So glad you like it!
As a former woodworking apprentice,
something I learned pretty ealry on is to use an additional flat and strong piece of wood to go between the clamp and the work piece.
This helps distribute the clamping force more evenly and avoid nasty kinks in the work piece from clamping.
If you didn't have those kinks, you may be fine without the extra piece
That table looks gorgeous btw ;)
Thanks!
This piece is both satisfyingly simple and alarmingly complex at the same time! I am putting it on my list of must-tries even though I have no place for it in my house. Absolutely love it!
Haha that’s awesome! Yeah! It’s deceptively simple. I would love to see it when you’re finished
Tamar, I first came across your work with the vaneer LP cabinet (I left the comment about Derek and the Dominoes). I so rarely leave comments on anything like this (I generally think the internet is a sewer), but your work is so inspirational. Keep it up! Can't say enough how awesome it is to see what you build, and I love the videos. Rock on!
So awesome to hear! Thanks! 🤘
I concluded that I really like to see how you work on each project you do
I appreciate the care you put into the detail that you show in each of the different processes lasts Congratulations!!!
I really appreciate the kind words! Ha! Thanks so much!
I picked this video at random, but just wanted to say how much I enjoy everything of yours that I've seen so far. I love your level of detail, the way you include your thought process, and the clean no-nonsense narrative. Great stuff, and thank you for the wonderful videos. (...and fwiw, I call remote controls "phasers"---like in Star Trek; just point and shoot...)
I am subscribed and will happily recommend your channel to other practiced-beginners like myself. Be well.
Phasers?!!! That’s a new one! Ha! Thanks so much! I really appreciate that!
A really elegant design and solution. I will be building one of these as soon as I get my shop back in order.
I shared this video with a friend who liked the design as well. Fortunately he has a Lamello Zeta P2 and he offered to loan it to me so the miter edges will be less work for me...
Very informative and creative solutions as always.
Ron
Well that’s awesome. Good luck with it!
im literally addicted to her videos 😂
Awesome to hear. Ha
Great project. As a stairway designer/fabricator, I appreciate your ingenuity to adapt & overcome during fabrication/assembly. Refreshing views/techniques are always fun to watch & learn! Thanks again & looking forward to the next project(s)!
Thanks so much!
Another awesome project !!! Tip... I build large wood beams and have to clamp miters all the time so what I created was a 45 clamp block. Just use one of the cutoffs (45) and screw a flat piece to the cutoff. Cutoff placed short side of the miter up, cut the flat piece the same width as the long side of the miter and glue and screw them together. you can the just lay them over exposed miters and clamp away.
That is a BEAUTIFUL table! Well done!
Thanks so much!
Cool project, good results. Like to watch because I learn something all the time watching you. Thank you for posting your projects.
Awesome to hear! Thanks!
Wow! This is incredible. I was today years old learning canary wood looks like that. Fantastic work. That made me happy you left the router sled trouble shooting in. Thank you.
Yeah. It was my first time working with it and I would totally use it again. Hope other ppl can learn something as I did in that moment.
A little green paint on everything when it was clamped up an you'd have had as Christmas tree. Great job.
Haha! Thanks!
Your projects have such a different take on them from other makers. I really enjoy. Thanks for sharing.
So happy to hear! I always liked to be different as a kid 😜 Thanks so much!
Yay! Just found your channel---happy to find another female woodworker/youtuber!
Awesome. Glad you found me 😉
Excellent wood choice Tamar. I think I'll be making one of those for my wife, I know she'd love it. she currently uses one of those tilting notebook stands on a tubular frame but I think your end table is better. Thanks again Tamar, really enjoy your work. Allan
Thanks so much! Yeah. I was originally going to use a live edge walnut slab but then saw this and I had to use it. Would be cool with a live edge though.... hope your wife likes it!
Hi Tamar, Well, my wood working skills aren't to your level but I'm going to give it a try. Keep on bringing us all good ideas and ways of achieving quality products. You encourage and inspire us to give it a go and here in Australia, It's our firm goal to always give it a go. Allan
Allan H so awesome to hear!
I love your videos because you always find a cure for each situation. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so so much! It’s so frustrating while it’s happening. But so satisfying when I figure it out. Ha
Beautiful, your critical thinking on how to tackle problems is amazing. You are an amazing teacher.
That’s so awesome to hear! You guys are just learning along with me!
@@3x3CustomTamar i just have one complaint, every time you come out with a video. it hits my pocket book. i have to run down to rocklers and hand them my credit card.
Haha sorry about that!
this was such a cool design and video -- and i learned about some tools, like the center-finding dowel jig, and dowel points, that i had never even heard of! :)
Hey Tamar, rewatched your video and happy to say just completed a version of yours. Made of 4 pcs of glued up Tassie oak. Really happy with it
Awesome to hear
Solid wood projects are so cool.
Agreed. Ha
It just proves the saying, you can never have enough clamps.😎
Truth. Ha
You are so smart. Brilliant little moments of creativity are what add up to this kind of result. Every step has some sort of different innovation to make it work out right. Love your vid’s.
Thanks so much! I love figuring this stuff out
beautiful job especially on the invisible spline. i'll have to try that.
11:48 haha clampageddon! Really great project. Love your videos. Thank you. You explain everything so well.
Glad you liked it! HAhaha
Clamps clamps clamps. Love your clamping 👍👍👍👍
You can never have enough! Ha
I tried this table, and found the video very helpful, thank you. I didnt spline the joints, I dont expect they'll see a lot of load, but we'll see.... I used a beautiful mahogany board, and the wood looks great, but it definitely would have been more in the waterfall look if I had found one with more color difference across the grains, like your canary wood. thanks for the idea.
Awesome! Glad it worked out for you!
Very nice looking little table. I saved this to my favorites file to hopefully make myself one day.
Awesome
Again it all came together, congratulations !
Woohoo!! 🙌🙌 thanks!!
Love that wood,and yes the grain pops....and those hidden spline's,wow you step up your game on this one.
Thanks! Appreciate all of that! This canary wood is insane.
This end table is so nice! Very elegant and beautiful in its simplicity and clean construction.
Thanks so much!
Well done! Love the waterfall effect from the continuous grain. I'm not sure I would have noticed that ordinarily but now I definitely would and know to look for it. Wonderful!
Thanks so much! It’s the small details like that that make. Huge impact on the design. In my opinion. Ha
The Jig is up! You're a Jig-a-lo. You stay getting Jiggy wid-it. Ok, I'll stop. Seriously you are continually creative and inspiring. Always enjoy and learn from your videos.
😂😂😂😂 really appreciate that! Thanks!
