    I like cherry the most.
    It reacts most graceful to every kind of light,
    has the perfect shades of brown
    and a filigree grain.
    Great work!

    You gotta love people that don’t know what they want. I’m glad you showed the time that was waisted and the entire extra day (or more) of work that was caused by their indecision. I’ve been a full time woodworker for the past 5 years and the only times I have had to take a loss is due to client indecision and as I’m sure you know that is not a good practice for a business. I’m glad you were able to get them to pay for your time.

    Outstanding table brother! I have a year and a half old son and haven’t built a thing since he was born. I’m chomping at the bit to make something but no real time yet. One thing I do when hammering in butterflies is use a piece of wood that is the entire length of the butterfly, I have had a couple break on me when not doing that, although I’m pretty green at woodworking so could have been flawed butterfly manufacture.👍🇺🇸

  • @chm1701
    @chm1701 5 років тому

    I’m not really a fan of epoxy, mostly due to the overwhelming amount of videos relating to the subject, BUT, the colour of epoxy you chose, in conjunction with the contrasting bow-ties, results in a table which is not only classy, but will no doubt stand the tests of time. It’s also the sort of table you know will be passed down from generation to generation.
    Really beautiful result, William and this is another video where I’ve learnt a lot.

    • @wmwalkerco
      @wmwalkerco  2 роки тому +1

      Go for it! The sled is fairly simple. The rails are just straight (jointed) 2x4s with holes big enough to fit a clamp head. The sled is just a piece of scrap 3/4"(1/2" would probably be better) ply as wide as the router base with a slot big enough for the router bit. The sides of the sled are hardwood and provide the rigidity so the ply doesn't sag over the span. I screwed some cleats on the bottom of the sled to reference off the rails and I coated all of the sliding surfaces with paste wax.

    Sir, isn’t running a circular saw on the edges enough to joint the edges? Not questioning the method, I have no idea, I thought it was.

    • @wmwalkerco
      @wmwalkerco  4 роки тому

      Sometimes it can be. There could be tension in the wood though and it could result in a bad joint. Track saws will get you even closer, but sometimes you'll still need to finesse the edge. If you do get a good joint off of the circular saw kudos! All that matters is the end result doesnt really matter how you get there.

      I meant more of using 1/4" instead of 3/16ths. My welds were solid. I make no claims to be a fabricator and I hold welders in the regard. How much would a certified structural welder have charged me to fabricate the base? Did it need an engineering stamp? Would the wood fail before the weld? It was more of a geometric forces acting on the piece and not a metal fab issue. It was supposed to highlight a choice of material. I've taken courses by the way, I'm just not a certified welder. I'm not working on skyscrapers or pipelines.
