I would absolutely use the other side of the table when I build my table.... hey man thanks for the video brother!!!!
When I worked at one of the big box stores in plumbing we sold more pipe for things like this than we did for their actual use. :-) I am seriously considering building me a new desk like this one. Great video.
Thanks for emphasizing the need to constantly measure and use a level. I made a small table and just screwed it together thinking it would only be a couple millimetres out of level. And there was a half inch wobble in it. The legs will be completely different lengths if you don't measure as you go.
Love with the table that you make, it looks easy than i thought
Just used this to build a desk but with a piece of walnut plywood! Thanks for the help!
Fun to watch. I love that you flipped it at 8:54.🤣😂🤣😂
Sweet build! I want to make one like this.
Thank you, great video!
Thanks Anthony!
Thanks for the very helpful video, you took your time to explain everything. Today I'm going to do something similar however with srorage shelves on both sides.
Thanks Chris! Good luck!
I'll follow this..😎
subscribed dude.!
Doing this next month!
Nice video, if you spray the sticker labels with WD-40 let sit for 1 min it will unglue very easy then wipe down the pipe with acetone
Great tip, thanks!
Super
Love it! Could I design something like this for a 30x40 glass top? If I felted the top flange, that should protect the glass from pipe. Would you recommend mimicking the bottom support at the top, since the glass top wouldn’t be attached like the butcher block top is? Thanks for your input. Cheers, Dottie
Thanks, trying to make square pipe table, cannot the fourth pipe to fit in keep get more parts to get to work.
Enjoyed the vid. Really helpful. What is the specific gray wall color?
How sturdy is this? I'm thinking about doing a desk like this but it needs to support 2 large monitors on arms and 2 laptops. 65in x 25 butcher block top.
Thank you! Good stuff and very useful!
While you were working, I couldn’t help but notice the beautiful floors! What style/color is that?
Thanks! The floor if I remember right is TrafficMaster 7mm Lakeshore Pecan. I'm pleasantly surprised at how well it's held up!
heatgun will lift the stickers no problem and hardly leave any residue.
Great tip! Thanks!
Has anything ever loosened after time?
Did it ever become wablly?
Going to be designing an "L-Shaped" version - Basically, two of these but in custom sizes for the home office...\m/
I'm currently looking for a solution to make an 96x48 inch butcherblock table base and I really like yours. Looks good and is a fair price plus its simple. I do have a couple of questions, what if you want to put wheels on it and what if you want to adjust the height for more comfortable working?
I suppose the wheels would be possible--you could get some caster wheels and drill holes into the floor flanges to attach them. Might not look very elegant up close, but should work. You wouldn't be able to *adjust* the height of the table very easily. *But* you could build it to the height you want by varying the lengths of the pieces of pipe you bought. They come in quite a variety, you could swap in the lengths you want. That would certainly work better with the shorter pieces at the bottom. The pipes are commonly available on eBay, usually in sets, cheaper than they are at Home Depot or Lowes.
can you use a quartz top instead of wood?
Not 100% sure about these stickers, but most stickers' adhesive can be loosened up enough to leave no residue if you get it hot with a hair dryer before you peel it off.
is good for replace stretcher to one table leg at the middle back?
Great video, thank you. What is the final height from floor to top of butcher block?
I had the same question. The frame is 26 3/4" tall, based on the video, timestamp 11:30.
What is the height from the floor to the top of the butcher block table?
what was the approximate costs of the piping hardware?
Did anyone catch the actual material list, I don't see it listed thanks!
What is the final dimension of the table? How far is the footrest from the back?
Can i follow all the materials with 200cm x 60cm table??
Where did you buy the butcher block from. Home Depot as well?
Yes!
Great. Where do people buy the black pipe?
I bought it at Home Depot, but I’m sure other hardware stores have it.
It's actually far cheaper to buy it on eBay. Many people sell them in sets of 5-10 pipes. The problem is that if you do that, they may come in non-standard sizes; the last time I bought a set, one pipe was a little longer than the others, which caused a bit of a problem.

Too expensive project , for a simple table/deck .......
But it looks really cool, and can be banged together with a minimum of tools, time, fuss and skill. And really, if you want something that's made of real wood and solid metal, this is quite stout and really good quality for the price.
