![Making a Cabinet | 1 Sheet Rockler Plywood Challenge [59]](/img/n.gif)
Such a beautiful piece, using such a simple and accessible material! Amazing!
Thansk man :)
Chris, Mike, and Ben have totally turned me around on plywood, a material I always looked down my nose at. It's amazing how much you can do with it when you embrace what it is and its uniqueness.
Nice...we all love the stuff obviously :)
I think the secret might be to stop burying the layers and embracing the stylistic flourish they bring. Edge banding is appropriate sometimes, but I really have come to love the cool layered look and I see a lot of people are starting to follow that same lead.
It also depends on the quality. I used to hate plywood, but that was because I was using garbage plywood.
And so, another work of art has been made. Amazing content once again. Thanks for all the great stuff Chris! Keep it coming!
love it. you must be pleased with how this one turned out. really makes the most of the challenge
Thanks man...I was very happy with. Can't wait to see what others build
Very nice design! I like the taper that gives the legs a very light look.
I love how simple this design is but it's also really modern and elegant. Great work!
Chris, I absolutely love your design here. You hit it out of the park.
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Felix :)
Aaaaand now I want a pastrami sandwich. Seriously though this is a lovely table. I'm going to have to spend some time thinking about what to make for this challenge. Great video as always!
I'm so getting pastrami for dinner :)
Absolutely love these challenges you guys put on.. very inspiring.. always look forward to your builds..
Fantastic project I love the detailing and can't wait to get stuck into this challenge.
Absolutely well done! Amazing project and design!
Wow, totally love that design!
Woah. I just found you channel, totally binge watching. Your videos are very relaxing , your voice and music and stuff :) Keep it up :) :)
Chris, that is a beautifully designed piece of furniture. The video as always, a joy to watch. Amid all the "loud" enthusiastic videos yours is always a sea of tranquility, calm and a joy to watch.
This one is probably my favourite project in a while! love the design dude thanks for the video!!
Another beautiful project. Great job!
awesome job Chris, incredible piece from a sheet of plywood, very well... keep inspiring ;)... thanks....
Wow I love the design, amazing work! Keep it up.
Great job Chris! It's amazing what can be done with a sheet of plywood.
Heck yeah :)
Awesome. Love when ppl do things like this themselves! Keep up bro
Wow! I love the design of this table! Nice job!👍👍👍
This is my favorite piece thus far. The profile reminds me of retro sci fi ray gun era design. You are the Bob Ross of our day, and this is a happy coffee table.
haha...thanks man. Appreciate the kind words. Happy building :)
Awesome table man. I am looking at getting into woodworking myself, but haven’t pulled the trigger yet (Wisconsin winter just starting). This idea of a single piece of plywood creating this gives me hope it can be done. You clearly know what you are doing! Wish I had that knowledge bc I know it’s not as easy as you just made it look.
Thanks David...I don't envy you....these California winters are pretty mild. I do occasionally break out a light jacket though...so we aren't totally exempt :P
You all have come up with an interesting challenge. I like the table design and the sandwich analogy gives the video a neat twist.
SO GOOD! Loved the video mate, so creative!
You're a great inspiration Chris. Keep up!
So beautiful, excellent execution!
👍 Nice work! Love the look of this thing man. Thanks for sharing
Great design, nice proportions and explained very well as per your usual standards!
Nice work on this challenge, pastrami layers are my specialty. And again congrats on the new modern baby.
Nice job. Would love to make stuff like this on the weekends. My starting point would be having those tools. Too hard to do this stuff without sliding mitres and other helpful tools.
Just found your channel, your videos are so relaxing and beautiful. Amazing videos that are really inspiring to me. Can't wait to see more :)
Thanks Kylie. Hope you like the rest :)
Of the 3 projects of the challenge, yours is my favorite. I hope, one day, to be able to make projects as beautiful as the ones you make. Greetings from Mexico, I'm your fan 😍
Very cool design. This inspires me to try something similar. Keep up the great work.
What a great challenge. Excellent job.
0:41 that transition was divine!
Thanks Mark...I was really proud of myself with that one. Definitely want to make that "a thing"
9/10 for the design and 9/10 for the use of such a cheap material in an awesome way. One thing to make furniture from walnut or oak timber but another to make it from such a cheap material.
Yummy, Pastrami is delicious and so is this coffee table!
Nice work!
Great design Chris!
This is incredible. such a great design
Very unique looking table. I like it a lot.
Way to go! Amazing carpentry my friend!
Great looking table Chris! Do you just pull these designs out of thin air or do you pull inspiration from somewhere?!? I'd love to start trying some small furniture builds but don't really know where to start!
It's a mix bag. This one I started with my "Spider Table" design...I knew I wanted a similar end result, but I didn't want to just build it out of plywood, so I started thinking about how I'd go about constructing it, and that led to the negative space idea...then I just kind of let that roll.
wow, I think you win for the best of the 3. This looks awesome!
Fantastic looking table 👍
It would be great to see something like this or the 2x4 challenge come back for - new round.
Oooh I love a good challenge. Fun
Yeah. you gotta get in on this. I think you'd kill it, and you'd probably get a pretty substantial subscriber boost
Hi there chris, I really enjoy watching your videos and getting Ideas from them thanks
I’ve got the same yellow hand sanding block!! That thing is a BOSS!!!
getting close to 200,000 subs. new from the very beginning you wood do fine. Always look to see what you are doing. Always enjoyable. Keep up the great video's, story, and music. Thanks.
thanks man...I passed 200K though
I'm not even into DIY, but I find these videos so relaxing. Good job!?
What a beautiful design. This is one I’ll definitely be making. Subbed.
Great video and love the design.
Hey Chris, I love the design of this! Do you think the design concept would work for a desk as well? What modifications would you make to build a desk? Keep up the amazing work
Nice high fiber sandwich Chris! I was late to the game on the last challenge. I'll certainly have to do it this time!
Love me some additive joinery. Makes it a breeze to implement strong and attractive building techniques like through tenon joinery for frame and panel construction with limited tools, time or skill required. A viable stopgap between "authentic fine woodworking" and the "slap a bunch of 2x4s together with screws" method.
thanks Benjamin - well said. For me it's a great change of pace. Especially after building a slower project, this way you can really see a lot of progress in a few hours work.
Brilliant design, which has become a hobit on your channel. I love all videos.
Nice challenge :) Thank you for hosting it. I'm looking forward to all the great builds :) ॐ
Nice work. 👍🏻
What a great build. Makes me wish I had room for a coffee table.
Wow, you set the bar pretty high with that table. Nice job.
Thanks man...I'm sure somebody will out do me though. If last time is any guide.
Simple but so beautiful... I love it...
nice work .. love to see more
Dang. I just made a small dining table with 1 sheet of plywood (plus some scrap because I goofed.) My design has a similar vibe to this, probably because I watch all your videos and your style is like an earworm when I'm sketching. Either way, I'll check out the podcast and site to see details of the 1 sheet challenge. Cheers. Keep it up.
Great looking table, man! Gotta see if I can make some time for this challenge. Can't wait to see others' entries. :-)
Heck yeah man...give it a go.
This is super cool! Makes me want to make one. I've always been into woodworking and even considered it as a career path at one point. I'd love to make my own furniture. Thing is, I don't own any tools at all (seriously... not even a screwdriver. I've always been able to borrow basic tools from my parents or friends, and since I'm broke, have not yet bought any of my own). I really hope one day I'll be able to have a house with a garage and a little workshop in the garage.
Awesome design
Beautiful
I never thought they were as good as you, but the videos from Mike and Ben up there really give you a run for your money. ;)
Mike's project was really cool I thought. Great idea, and for being a prototype - it came out good looking. I'd say it is like 90% of the way there to what it would be if he made another version. Ben's isn't up yet, but I expect him to kill it. Ben is always full of good ideas.
Ha, dude, I was joking. When I watched the video, it was 2 of your videos in the frames not theirs (the tv stand and something else)! So I thought you were kidding around. Now I see Mike's folding table and blank for Ben. Maybe it was a youtube glitch.
Awesome video!
Great build as usual. I would have loved to have seen more on the process of mapping out the sheet of plywood and how you managed to get all of that out of one sheet.
I was looking at it today...the crazy thing is I only used a little over half of the sheet it turns out.
I just did this build and I used about 3/4 of a sheet
I love this table. And the challenge. And sandwiches. Now I’m hungry and have some projects to sketch.
me too...somebody pastrami me
Very nice. Just shows what you can do with plywood. Hope for us all!
The sandwich effect is wonderful. I kinda like yours more than the others.
Love the look of the legs!
This table is so sick! Fantastic video too! Not trying to take away anything away from this table cause it is really awesome but it reminds me of a PlayStation lol! Going to go binge the podcast now! Keep it up!
haha...it totally does. I never thought aobut that. I have the PS4 pro which is 3 layers too. Maybe it got into my subconscious. I have been playing my fair share of Gran Turismo Sport.
Very cool, very nice.
awesome design!
best videos and projects, keep it up man
Wow just beautiful!!😳
Very nice!
Cool table, Go Brewers!
So simple, yet elegant! I like the different layers in the top. I’ll be building something for the challenge...hope I don’t let you down. ;)
Sorry I will steal your desing! honestly this is what i was looking for my living room for 2 yrs :) great
Fantastic !
Hi Chris, How do you finish the exposed plywood edge? How smooth! Thankss
Nice table......and your a cubs fan go Cubs.gonna try building this table I like woodworking.
Very well done
Hi Chris, newbie here and thought I might try a version of this using Rimu wood for my first project as I have some in the garage. Just wondered what angle the legs came down at?
Gotta love pastrami!
Great work sir ,
I hv one question : the plywood touching the floor part what if it splits by the time ( layers of plywood)
Awesome vid! which saw do you recommend best for cutting plywood without ripping the veneer? do you have a site where you buy premium plywoods, or just your local lumber store? thanks!
Nice job
Hey I’m new to the channel and absolutely love it. Just wondering, what do you do with all the furniture you make after the video?
As long as there is no CNC or excarving or any type of digitalized machines in this build , only typical woodworking tools and good craftsmanship , it'll defently have my thumps up.
Thanks! You will not like my next project. It is heavily CNC'ed
i think this is a winner, i love it👍👍👍
awesome video..may i know what brand of your table saw n the jig you use to cut the angular plane??
me encantó tu diseño! saludos desde una pequeña ciudad llamada Tucumán en Argentina. ahora voy a la suscripción
Earbuds and table saws go well together
Extremely nice design and execution. Why am I hungry?
