Great job as always! Honestly one of my favorite aspects of your videos is the troubleshooting, I learn so much about addressing issues with builds from someone with your experience. Please keep these in yours vids!
I watch all the "major" woodworking channels and yours is still the best. Almost every time, I pick up something new in one of your videos. After all this time, I still can't believe you're not leading the pack in subscribers.
The upper corners are gorgeous. I wondered if 23mm was going to look wobbly, but with the stretchers, it looks fantastic. I love tubular steel furniture made like this, but the wood is a great change. I appreciate how you don't edit out the difficulties, but work through them.
Another great project! Thanks for sharing. Really like the mitered corners that was a great detail. I agree with what you said at the end about it being wider, like a hallway or entry table.
I agree with the others that using such thin stock is an invitation to warping and bowing in such a light piece. This build seemed quite complex and difficult especially the upper corner matching. Love the look but those joints ...make it a not every day build. Great patience Joey.
Another method that works well for filling a slightly open joint is to first rub in wood glue into the open joint. Then take your orbital sander and disconnect the suction hose and place you hand over the sander outlet and sand the joint. The wood dust is forced into the open joint as it cannot leave the sander. Works every time.
Project is awesome. I recently started using paddle brushes and water based varnish as per your recommendation and I totally love it.....awesome result....a big “Thank you”.
From one woodworker to another its nice to see you be so genuine with your presentation. What ends up on camera is typically polished and we've edited out the bad stuff. Its nice to see that we're all battling imperfections and mistakes in our work. All I would add is that you might consider reducing the depth and keeping the length the same. I typically keep my hall tables like this one about a 12-16" deep. PS....I've commented on it before but man is that Lamello a sick purchase!
My thoughts: Overall, grat job. Your videos are a bit dry, but your execution of technique and design is brilliant. I genuinely appreciate your detailed approach to every build and your thought process from start to finish. Thank you for your hard work and great craftsmanship.
Simple slender legs are great. Gives it a really light feel. I'd worry about kicking the front stretcher so maybe would have set the long stretchers back a bit, into the side ones.
I like the design. I'm a bit worried that it is to tall and light for the push function to work without tipping the table or the table hitting the wall every time you push to open, but that's probably the trade off of a slim and elegant design. The Lamello looks really cool and everything, but I do have a hard time wrapping my head around the plastic element of the connections. This is not because I'm a Dominos kinda guy myself, but it flirts with flatpack furniture in my head. From a production point of view it makes sense, and I guess the customer will never know. Keep up the great content. Much appreciated.
Nice design bro, like the compound mitres, not needed but why not hey? It shows craftmanship. For me I wouldn't have minded a handle on that drawer, something minimal just to break up the surfaces. I'm no one to say anyway. Good to watch what you do. Cheers! Keep it coming!!!!
Very nice, and delicate . . . .perfect those corners and it would be a stunner . . . seem like a lot of trouble to build . . . maybe make ten at a time. Cheers.
Nice! Thanks for taking us through the process. I like it, I'd suggest adding a small chamfer at the intersection of the legs & stretchers as well as the compound miter for the top. I think it would give a little bit of interest and depth to an otherwise very flat/linear piece. If you were going to try that, I'd also suggest making the pocket for the stretchers a bit deeper so the chamfer on the horizontal edge doesn't get lost. It might be worth doing a little sketch on this idea... perhaps a slight taper to the foot would accentuate the slenderness of the legs, which I like. And maybe if you're sticking with the contrasting woods, a collar of contrasting wood around the foot? If you do that, perhaps the stretchers use visible dowels with contrasting wood? ... just brainstorming.
It's simple and clean. The self opening drawer, as a hall table, is awesome - no snagging on the drawer pull as you go by. The high contrast colors are interesting. Not sure about the Sapele, but I've never worked with it or even seen it in person. I imagine cherry would make a close second - after a few years of darkening up. My only thought/concern is the the legs seem a little spindly in proportion (to me) possibly this affect is increased due to the contrast with the much larger fields of dark wood and/or the white backdrop. Would be interesting to see the same pictures with a backdrop in high contrast to the legs versus the panels. Nice concept.
Hi great videos ,just wanted to know if when working with ply ie kitchens etc do you encounter doors warping at all and what ply is best and will varnish / coating help ,many thanks 👌🏻oh and love the unit ,top job 😀
I like it Joey. You could make it longer, but I am wondering whether you should have had two drawers instead of one. I guess if you made it longer, you would go to two drawers as a consequence. Even so it is a nice bit of furniture.
Like it. Longer is nicer but needs more legs and then you need a good long hallway. It will store a lot of Sh** that you normally dont keep so maybe not a bigger or more draws, just a small on in the middle.
A very delicate elegant looking piece, maybe a morso guillotine would help with the mitre issue? Real nice contrast and would work well if longer. Nice work.
Definitely longer - maybe an additional 2 feet? I’d also enlarge the legs a bit as they look a bit spindly holding up the top, which gives off a much heavier appearance than it is physically. The corners are the key to this beautiful piece. Add in the contrasting wood and you’ve got a winner. I just love the way you think, you always turn out fantastic pieces of art. Great job!
Good Job, Joey! But a lot of things i would do a other way! I hope i travel to you in 2021 to work with you. Bis bald, Grüße von Benny max well designs Bremen Germany
Hmm, the Mirotec seems to come in 5L or 20L only - bit too much for my use unfortunately! The piece looks great. Agreed that longer would be even better

Thanks , I appreciate the compliment
Thanks to Joey I have my own furniture journey.
Great job Joey,
I'm glad you put out another video....always look forward to Kingpost Timberworks vids.
I like the contrast, design and work. I also remember some complex glue ups. Really enjoy your videos !
The upper corners are gorgeous. I wondered if 23mm was going to look wobbly, but with the stretchers, it looks fantastic. I love tubular steel furniture made like this, but the wood is a great change. I appreciate how you don't edit out the difficulties, but work through them.
Thank you! I'm just experimenting and learning so I share what I can
I'm looking forward to the glue-up of another one that is longer with middle legs and two drawers.
That should be an event.
I like it Joey, espessially the mitered corners. Oh and thanks for showing your shortcommings, we all have them.....
Joey, you are simply amazing!
Learn something new everytime I watch your videos.
Simple and elegant. I think it's a winner. Kudos, sir.
Looks great - good contrast and mitres look excellent. Nice thickness
Another great project! Thanks for sharing. Really like the mitered corners that was a great detail. I agree with what you said at the end about it being wider, like a hallway or entry table.
Looks good as always Joey . I like the 2 different species of wood . Especially after you added the clear coat . Thanks for the video !
Really handsome piece, I agree it would look great in a longer version as well.
Very nice clean and simple!
I agree with the others that using such thin stock is an invitation to warping and bowing in such a light piece. This build seemed quite complex and difficult especially the upper corner matching. Love the look but those joints ...make it a not every day build. Great patience Joey.
I love it.
Great job!
I love the level of perfection you achieve. Even for a proof of concept. Very elegant table. Great video as always.
Really liked it good proportions and colour
great job, love the triple mitre corners, it makes it a pleasant change to see that joint.
Another method that works well for filling a slightly open joint is to first rub in wood glue into the open joint. Then take your orbital sander and disconnect the suction hose and place you hand over the sander outlet and sand the joint. The wood dust is forced into the open joint as it cannot leave the sander. Works every time.
That's a good tip
The contrasting colors make it look very nice...
Really nice looking stand, great contrast, excellent skills!!
You are a Brilliant Designer..Can we see more like this.. Exquisite
Just lovely! I was wondering where you'd been, glad to see you're still at it!
Very nice color combinations..👍👍
Project is awesome. I recently started using paddle brushes and water based varnish as per your recommendation and I totally love it.....awesome result....a big “Thank you”.
nice work joey, good to see you back, hope you have more videos coming, always enjoy your builds
Looking good Joey, loving the design overall but in particular the corners. 👌
Very nice looking piece. I like the color contrast and the joinery. I first thought the structure was too thin but changed my mind when complete.
Like the proportions and style. Nice work.
Looks gorgeous great job Joey!
It's very elegant, nice contrast , beautiful job
Very cool sir. Those compound miters kick ass!
Yep, really like it. Would love to see some variations of this design. Great job as usual!
Good to see you back.
Personally I like the contrast in colour, but agree with Brady Kirkwood with regards to slightly heavier square stock.
I love how you made the connections and your corners. Awsome build man, this was fun to watch!
Thanks
I agree mate, loving the contrasting colours. 👍
Neat mitred joins as well. 👌
Excelente...saludos desde Cúcuta Colombia.🙋

bloody nice job Joey I love it balance and grace, great design
Thanks
Looks awesome Joey
It has the best drawer I’ve ever seen!
Looks good Joey! i like the interesting miters at the corners it gives it a nice touch :) Thank you for sharing the video.👌👍😎JP
Really smart bro and great to see a vid from you. We need more bro
My thoughts: Overall, grat job. Your videos are a bit dry, but your execution of technique and design is brilliant. I genuinely appreciate your detailed approach to every build and your thought process from start to finish. Thank you for your hard work and great craftsmanship.
I like it!! Vey much!
Love it!
It is great! 🌷🤗
Looks good Joey!
Very nice, I like it
Great project Joey, even for offcuts still is awesome , I bet as a foyer cupboard draw with a mirror above would be sweet......
this lamello is going to make my life a lot easier, which is good! xD
Simple slender legs are great. Gives it a really light feel. I'd worry about kicking the front stretcher so maybe would have set the long stretchers back a bit, into the side ones.
I respect your honesty mistakes come with the trade its knowing how to deal with it is what counts btw those double mitres are lit!
I like the design. I'm a bit worried that it is to tall and light for the push function to work without tipping the table or the table hitting the wall every time you push to open, but that's probably the trade off of a slim and elegant design.

I get the plastic thing too, but. They are so good at what they do it saves soooo much time.
I like it. I reckon you are bang on with it looking really good if it was made as a longer version. 👍
Really like it
Really nice looking piece, wouldn't say no if you gave it to me
Ha it's for sale.....
Awesome!

Mate I think you could say as proof of concept it works, works pretty damn well 👍👍👌👌
In reply to Brady the thin legs give it a real Scandinavian look. I should know I live in Stockholm. A great take on 50's Scandinavian modern.
Really like the Ash Sapele combination, very sweet joinery on legs to the top. Beautiful work. Take Care
Thanks

I'm Joey and this is my new tool. Man, I missed your videos
That is nice, maybe a bit light for the drawer mechanism tho - wobbles around. Thanks for posting Joey
It would.look great as is inside my front door....lol
Agree a little longer would be great.
It's for sale....
Very nicely done but I'd be afraid to go near it, it looks so delicate.
Love it. Agree longer and narrower ( depth wise) would accentuate the giraffe legs
I like it mate...
Esse cara é fera!!!
I think you should put up more vids its wicked to see a kiwi killing it keep it up bro
Hi great videos ,just wanted to know if when working with ply ie kitchens etc do you encounter doors warping at all and what ply is best and will varnish / coating help ,many thanks 👌🏻oh and love the unit ,top job 😀

I bloody love your channel. And I wanna meet the nine guys who downvoted. WTF? lol,
I like it but i love the mitres were the top joins the frame they look cool
Nice work
Like it. Longer is nicer but needs more legs and then you need a good long hallway. It will store a lot of Sh** that you normally dont keep so maybe not a bigger or more draws, just a small on in the middle.
For myself, I like it. I hear what you, and others, have said about 30 odd mil - and you're prob right. Love the mitres though! Best aye!
Nice Table! What hinges are those?
I like it I think use a black wood for the panels and white for the frame and make it 1500mm long would look mint
A very delicate elegant looking piece, maybe a morso guillotine would help with the mitre issue? Real nice contrast and would work well if longer. Nice work.
I like it. Agree with you longer would be better, maybe even narrower also with two drawers...I’m thinking sofa table.
Definitely longer - maybe an additional 2 feet? I’d also enlarge the legs a bit as they look a bit spindly holding up the top, which gives off a much heavier appearance than it is physically.

Thanks , yes I have some walnut I could get 30mm legs from and I'm thinking curly maple veneer.
Looks good.
I woiuld never try that triple miter corner. It would frustrate me to death.
Good Job, Joey! But a lot of things i would do a other way! I hope i travel to you in 2021 to work with you. Bis bald, Grüße von Benny max well designs Bremen Germany
Yes!
Welcome back 👍🏼
I like the fact that there is no hardware on the draw so that it matches the other sides
Make a set. Side table, coffee table, end table. Looks great!!
Yes indeed! Now where thinking....
Very nice as usual. Yeah longer is good but also maybe not as deep if to be near door...just my impression.
Turned out awesome! Where did you get the finish from? I had a look at their website and can't find where to buy it from
Cheers, I get it from the paint company in Nelson nz
Hmm, the Mirotec seems to come in 5L or 20L only - bit too much for my use unfortunately! The piece looks great. Agreed that longer would be even better
One day I will have one of those industrial sliding panel saws.
Cant go wrong with that looks great , if you go bigger definitely 30 mm legs or there abouts
Great build for a prototype.
What was the water based finish you used?
Just in case Joey doesn’t get to your comment: he overlaid the name of the finish in text on the screen. I can’t recall it but it’s there.
It'd look good in my front entrance :)
Its for sale...
Love your videos but more importantly I finally learned how to pronounce sapele!
