the setup for the terrible pun at the end... Thank you for that.
haha....we had to go a long way to get there...but we did it!!!!
Cannot agree more. The infamous... Feels pun. It has reared its fearsome head.
That's exactly what I came to the comments to applaud. Nice work Chris
I'm so dense. I had to read your comment to get it.
After watching the video advert i was still skeptical. But when i finally downloaded the plans ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxZF0EMnrujZvqHhGkxiz559uIABJWR9TG i was very impressed. The whole plan was just as you said in the video. Thank you very much. I now have a large and valuable collection for my woodworks. This is great!
*Now imagine leaning your elbows on this table*
Ohhh shiiittt
Fucking ouch
Now imagine accidentally falling asleep on the table.
Person of ur nightmares How do you accidentally fall asleep on a table 😂
Ooh that’s gonna hurt
Honestly man, I'm not even a woodworker but that speech at the end is literally what I needed to hear today since I've been feeling pretty down creatively.
Thank you and I've subscribed just because of that.
you should have a podcast you have a calming voice
Totally!
My favorite thing about this design is imagine a kid building their own lego creations on top of it, it's creativity inspiring creativity
Thanks Matthias. I've tried it and it works...but not as well as just a flat board would admittedly. Does look a lot cooler though :)
Creativity is not something you're born with. It's a muscle. The more you work it, the better you get at it.
for sure...and I guess like a muscle, different people are born with different ceilings, or aptitudes...but that doesn't mean that anybody can't improve.
Totally agree with the both of you guys. Chris, you are a poet (as well as you, David). And in woodworking, as in every other art or science, you can find poetry stretching your ideas to the extreme linearity of your intimate thoughts. I don't know if it make sense for you guys in english, but it makes it for me in italian :D
Penis
And if you use it too much, you can damage it... 😂👌
Make Something uh sorry to break your metaphor but you are born with muscles
Your voice is really pretty
pretty like a lady
Your face is really pretty!
I've come to realize that i don't know what attracts me more to your videos: the narration or the project.
I just think that BOTH are awesome!
well thank you and thank you then :)
Same!!!
I find the design kinda blocky...
Glad the ideas are still flowing, Chris. I could see this piece getting a lot of use as your boys grow up and dive deeper down the LEGO rabbit hole
lot's of LEGO and Water/River puns going on here. You learn quickly Kris of the North
Ba dum tiss
Your joke is a bit bricky
WATER
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
i really needed that little speech about creativity at the end. i have so many creative blocks and im always doubting myself so it was really helpful! and the pun was great too lol
"Im kinda sick of river tables so why not do something new? Make another one"
Ok...
Well I think what he is saying is the typical river table where someone takes rough cut lumber that can't be used for much and making something out of it is becoming a bit over done. It has kind of become industrialized now.
#logic
A TABLE YOU CAN BUILD ON
OMG YES
I DIDNT THINK THAT
I like both posters before me. Duh. Make a cool 3d playlegoland. Now I really really want to make this
I almost did a spit take at 3:30 with the Bob Ross quote! ha ha. I've never seen anything quite like this. It is really a cool piece, and the video might be one of your best!
Thanks Bruce
just saying, the creativity thing at the end (the 'stopped getting ideas for a while, then they came back' part) is commonly known as 'art block' in the art and drawing community. Its kinda cool to know other community experience the same thing, even though it makes a lot of sense that it would transfer sense both things are very creative and similar in ways.
(i didn't see someone else point it out so i did)
heh
art **block**
A channel run by a Maker who is super creative, intuitive, and philosophically lifts up others? Am I dreaming?
My goodness, what an awesome take on the idea and what a beautiful edit. Chris you are killing it. Keep it up!
Thanks David...really appreciate it, and I will certainly try to :)
I get what you mean by river tables not be creative and because so many people have made them so they are less rare. But you still have to give the people credit for making them because they are still less common then normal tables and they take more time to build than normal tables. But with that put aside, you did a great job with this table.
that final message really got me, and matches almost perfectly what I'm going through rn. Every now and then I feel like this, you just sit in front of your computer all day and nothing comes out of your head, and you start fearing every single day will be like this. It can last some days, weeks or even months. I'm feeling way better now. Thank you
You know....Rockler letting a video be commerical free is the best commerical they could have done
Your neighbors pass by and ask what you are doing, did you reply "Oh, just making a Lego coffee table"?
your message about the pressure of having another good idea really means a lot to me. my exam results that would determine if I'm going to a design school or not comes in 2 days, and i am anxiety ridden. this vid calmed me down a lot :) thank you!
Very cool. If you get in great! If you don't, that doesn't mean it's the end of the road :)
As an avid Lego fan and woodworker/carpenter myself this is the perfect blend of both passions.. and I'm so glad you used the plural of the word "Lego" correctly.. so many people throw an 's' on the end of the word, which as T.L.G. have stated themselves, is incorrect.. :)
Great work as always Chris, look forward to the next project.
Spot on when you said “anyone can be creative”. Self doubt and comparing your work to others. Awesome video
Jaw dropping! I love river tables and even though you do not feel the same way and made your own creative take to it, this one is by far no exception. Just amazing Cholo!
Hey man, you *totally* didn’t mention it in the video so I was curious how much the Lego cost.
45... hey wait a minute....
Why are men as talented and creative as you always taken! I bet your kids love you making them things too :)
Lord Business would be proud of all those single use bricks. As someone who likes LEGO, wood, river tables, and creativity, this made me happy.
Looking awesome dude. love that river table at the beginning
Not gonna lie...al though they've been done a million times now - that one is kind of the best :)
+John Malecki wonder who made that? ;) that thing could get 2 million views if someone made a video for it....
I just watched your video of that build the other day. Fantastic take on river tables.
So awesome! You had me at Lego River table, but then hit it out of the park with Bob Ross quote! Absolutely fantastic!!
haha...gotta It wasn't intentional, but when I was editing and saw myself do that Bob Ross immediately came to mind.
Creative here (work as a Graphic Designer and also a musician), completely agree on how you were talking about 'running out of creativity'. Its a constant fear of mine. Thanks for confirming that there are others who have these feelings
god damn who writes your script. The writing is eloquent and with the pairing of the music and overall production quality is just so amazing. Additionally, it's refreshing to see someone who is 1) creative and 2) works with their hands speak so candidly about introspection.
Saw this on IG and HAD to come over and check it out. Amazing concept and build Chris
Thansk man...glad it lived up to it.
Great vid! Managed to make a story of making a table interesting, funny, and even deep and personal!
Thanks Callum...appreciate it :)
I like that you have incorporated Lego a couple times into your stuff now. It was by far the most important thing that helped develop my creativity as a kid.
Hey Chris! I recently got in a rut and did something everyone has done just to make something. I split a cedar log in half, hit it with a forstner bit a couple times, and hot glued some air plants in there. It came out well, I tried to use my knowledge of design to place my plants carefully for the best effect. I did something there are a million pictures on Pinterest of. For me, taking the effort out of WHAT to make, and making myself focus on HOW helped me get creative again. I'm sick of river tables too, but my air plants on a cedar log were my creative equivalent to your additive joinery. I have a ways to go to catch up to your design and craftsmanship, and I want to say thank you for posting your take on the river table. You changed the how, and gave me ideas to change the how again in some of my projects.
Me: I want a table that I can both build legos and put my coffee down on.
This guy: Yes
Kill the people who dont use coasters on this work of art. Sheesh (sarcasm for all those haters born without a brain )
THANK YOU! ... For not saying 'LEGOs'.
haha...I am careful about that :)
Yeah so many people seem to want to put an s at the end of everything...
It's extremely annoying.
i say LEGOs
so shoot me
Carl Manson and
ImpaktaDoge ... And ...
Thank you for the creativity but also the vulnerability to show your fear. It's not weakness, it's strength.
Thanks Jim...appreciate it :)
Not only are you creative, you're a very wise man
Love this!!!
Glad I'm not the only one tired of seeing "river" tables.
The part where you mentioned the depression. I have slightly the same thing. Once in a while I have what I call a mini depression you can't really see it on the outside when you are with me. It goes away in a few hours or a few days. Not to be a soggy kind of guy because I'm one of the biggest optimists in life!!!
Yeah...totally. I think a lot of people feel that. The best way I've found to deal with it is activity and knowing that it's temporary.
Must be nice
the closing monologue about creativity is why i liked this video, particularly the closing line 👍
I'm gonna go post this to Reddit real quick.
I hope the post does well because this idea is too great not to be shared, and I really think more people need to know about your channel.
which sub reddit were you thinking of posting to? I post stuff on reddit from time to time, but I'm fairly selective about it now b/c I've had my share of ups and downs over there.
Chris Salomone I wanted to post it to r/DIY, but the rules said you have to have made whatever project you posted, and since I didn't make the table, I posted it to r/lego.
Chris Salomone
www.reddit.com/r/lego/comments/9752br/this_is_such_a_great_idea/?
Hey Eli...appreciate your willingness to do this. I was actually thinking of posting it there myself - but when I post to reddit I have a whole timed strategy to give the post it's best chance. I think they have a rule about not reposting a project within a certain time frame - so I'll just wait and come back to it after that expires.
Chris Salomone ok
Awesome project and that top indeed took a lot of work and time but was totally worth it! RIP those yellow jeans though...*tear*
haha...they were old, so I had to sacrifice them. They actually may get more use now b/c they will forever be my concrete project pants
** Insert off-color joke about hardening in the crotch area of the jeans... ** (Sorry, deep down I'm still a 12-year old boy.)
Just randomly clicked on this video and I'm subscribing. He is so chill and peaceful. I really love his vibe, and his comedy is top notch.
Thanks :)
WOW, imagine the LEGO scenes you could build on that table and have it be part of the table at the same time, intriguing.
Definitely :)
Awesome. Now to scale it up to a Lego river dining table. With Lego attachments: candle holders, trivets, the possibilities are endless!
haha...I am drawing the line here...NO MORE RIVER LEGO TABLES (probably)
If Chris doesn't make it, I just might..... really cool extension of the idea!
I'd love to see this but where you make a 'river bed' with Lego, like using the seaweed pieces and stuff too,and then fill it with transparent blue resin (but not all the way, the rest clear), and the rest of the table be sandy or grassy under clear resin! 😍😍😍😍😍
man...I am LEGO'd out after this one, so that will not be happening anytime soon. Cool idea though :)
I am watching this while struggling to start a difficult lit essay I’ve prepped for for the last two days. Thanks for the creativity encouragement! I’m gonna try to use that as fuel to stop procrastinating and get writing!
I love the vids and honestly listening to you say that little pep talk really helped me get more creative and actually do what I love
Amazing video! I loved the theme and the table was beautiful
Thanks Anson :)
his brain: "so do u want a coffee table or a lego table?"
him: "yes."
Y’all got such an ASMR voice. I can listen to this before bed and still fall asleep after.
Pardon me, I’m strange🤷🏽♀️😂
I was very mesmerized by your voice. I couldn’t tell you what this video was about, but your voice is a perfect narration.
I don't know if it was because this video was something different from what you normally do, if it was a collaboration, if you got a new camera or what but I honestly think this was your best one yet - the storytelling was really clear and flowing, the timing and humour was spot on, the shots around the 5 minute mark were :*, the piece turned out beautifully - I love the looked of the ebonized maple and dark concrete contrasting with the legos - and the pun at the end was well.... classic Chris :)
haha...thanks man. It was the same camera with a few things added in, like the drone. There were more night shots I suppose...also the reveal part was a little more "documentary" feeling. And you're totally right. That ending is pretty much the classic me :)
Haha the ending completely caught me off guard - I was sitting here getting into the story, the philosophical insight, the calming music, slow and relaxing pan shots and then BOOM the moods shattered with a lego pun :)
& yeh you're right it defiantly had more of a documentary feel! I rewatched it to try and pinpoint what I really liked about it, and I think with woodworking videos we kind of by definition are just shooting the workbench/table saw from as many different angles as possible, however the concrete allowed you to add a lot of variety to the video; changing locations and showing techniques that are completely different from each other (pouring, cutting, watering, routing etc).
I also think, maybe because concretes a new process for you, the video had a kind of discovery feel about it - every step flowed/built on the last one and you really felt like you were being brought along on the process..... but then again maybe I'm looking to much into this haha! Either way, as I said on Mike's video this is definitely the best collaboration i've seen!
I had to lego of my initial response. Mostly because someone else beat me to it.
(I did have the same question about shark jumping. Fidget spinners disappeared pretty quickly, but River tables are still happening. Wonder what we'll think when we see them in the thrift store in 10 years. Will it be like seeing 1970 wood paneling basements?)
haha...I don't think they'll reach that level of ubiquity so maybe not. Perhaps more aligned to shag carpeting. JK :P
Hey, I have 1970s wood paneling in my 1970s house. So it still lives.
only basements..? My parents loved it so much they clad the inside of their living room with it.. *shudder*
But the was all the rage in 1975.. ;)
your speech at the end made me cry and brighten up my day
you got yourself a sub
I could listen to you all day. You should be hired to read your voice is calming
Totally biased, but this thing is Lego-tastic! Pouring concrete >>>>> pouring epoxy :)
Hey man...that Curvy bench ain't too shabby either. Question though...can you actually sit on it ?
I dunno, can you?
by the way, I don't know why this just popped in my head, but "Itchy Chris" sounds like a garbage pail kid name....
I'm not a fan of the colours, I feel like personally I would have used greens, blues, whites and similar colours but other than that cool build
Yeah, it's subjective. I wanted that classic LEGO look, so I went with the primaries.
the best part is you could actually BUILD on top of it. So the table can continue to be used for creativity...its purpose is just beginning. Just think of a little kid building something of there own idea on top of that. I love this!
Thanks Danny...I tested it and I'll admit, one lego from the center popped out. Good news is, it popped right back in :)
Yes, Chris, River tables have jumped the shark. Glad to see something different. Also stoked to see the collab with two of my other favorite channels.
had to sub for this
Hi I found that so cool and u have such a cool voice
Thanks Dan :)
Now that's a nice spin on the river table. Hits right in the childhood, and such a tranquil video too!!!
Love that kids (and big kids) can use it as a foundation for building LEGOs on. Very cool!
Cholo on Easter.
:)
Ive scrolled pretty far down and this is the first comment ive seen acknowledging that comment 😂😂😂
$45 the cost of one brick
yup. Had to refinance the house to build this sucker :)
This is a genius take on the river table trend right now. One of the best I've seen, thanks for sharing!
NOT ONLY A HARDWOOD GOD BUT A AESTHETIC GODDDD ❤️
Oh my God. That pun.
Please dont use Gods name in vain.
Thomas In my religion it is not an issue to say “God”. As such, I have the habit of saying “Oh my God”, “Dear God”, “Thank God”, and “God forbid”. I also say “Lord” instead of “God” sometimes. I don’t see any issue of saying my Lord’s name when I think something is amazing, surprising, or terrible. It just shows that I think of Him always. It is not my intent to offend but I have no intention of stopping this habit when it helps me to remember my Lord.
Thank you for not saying Legos
no problem :)
it's legos
Lego: A singular lego
Legos: A group of legos
Lego: A set of legos
It's like fish, you don't say fishes unless you're gollum, the plural of fish is fish and the same goes for lego, it's NOT legos it's lego. You don't have pieces of legos you have pieces of lego!
8:47 I too, get a surge of inspiration for new projects when I'm depressed. Working on projects is therapy.
Thank you for sharing.
Finding both channels in 2021, a couple months ago. Didn't expect that there was a Foureyes/Modustrial Maker video, this is like watching The Avengers!
if i ever created that, id add a little set to make a cliff with water falling off it.
I am mildly infuriated because he called them nubs and not studs
TheMemeBoi and he calls them “4x2s” and not 2x4s
It's made up for by him saying "lego" and not "lay-goes"
@@NieMonD thank fuck
*Dank*
Uhh, "studs"? Y'mean the *plastic nibblets?*
This is art. True artist too. Incredible work with incredible honesty and incredible words. Thank you for sharing all of it.
I came here to watch a table being made and left with an inspirational message to be a better human being.
haha...thanks man...Glad I could help :)
Make a table with animal design
are you discord video voice actor?
Not that I'm aware of :)
That ending was spot on, i feel like that all the time
You're absolutely inspiring! Thank you for showing vulnerability in your narration.
Has deep emotional fear of not having anymore ideas or just down right loss of creativity.... Makes coffee table with Lego stuck in
Am at my best with my back against the wall :)
I know why he didn’t make a “concrete crotch” joke! Because it was HARD to make one!
Pee on me
Pretty slick. Kids can use it as a base to build Lego things. Opens lots of possibilities. Great job!
This video is anti depressant, your voice, your words amazing and thank you very much for making the video
Nobody:

UA-cam Recommendations: *MaKiNg A CoNcREtE LeGo TaBLe*
Shouldve made the legos clear..
River tables are beginning to wear on me too. I like your take on it, very original.
I was waiting for the word "Legos", but finally we have an American who knows Lego is an uncountable noun!
Who are the 9 people that don't like lego?
The K'Nex board of directors :P
People that stepped on one brick to many...
Megabloks fans.
Me - "How much do you love your wife?"
Him - "45 dollars"
My favorite take on the river table so far! It's so slick looking!
“If you’re wondering why I look like a cholo on Easter” That line got me dead
Next make a Lego floor
Just LEGO... ugh.. oh and did that concrete stiffen your pants?..
Next level design... Looks amazing
that satisfaction when everything works out amazing and parts fit together perfectly
“Dressed like a cholo on Easter” woooooo someone’s racist 😂😂😂
