This has been the most enjoyable video of the week for me. I loved the reflections on challenges and trying something new. You’re not only being creative and making things you love you are also sharing yourself in a thoughtful way with your viewers.
Keaton, absolutely beautiful work - both your design and execution. I'm thoroughly enjoying your builds, the progressively challenging projects, and the story of your journey. Thank you for creating and sharing. Warm regards, Jon
@@JSNB911 a German. Awesome! Those hand planes are straight from Germany and have some writing on them I don't understand. My ancestors are from Germany, actually, at some point I'll share in a video a little more about that and why I got into woodworking which has a lot to do with my German great grandfather.
Hi Keaton, I learned a long time ago that there is never enough time, space, or money. So if you want to actually do something, figure out how to do it without those « essentials » . Looks like you’ve got that figured out. And the result speaks for itself. Well done. Cheers, Keith
Hi Keyton! It’s nice to find another channel with quality videos making great content. So many woodworkers I’ve watched over the years have had their channels blow up resulting in them building their dream shops, making over the top projects and getting all kinds of sponsors. Eventually as a normal guy working in your garage you can’t relate to them anymore. I’m so glad you’re doing what you’re doing. Keep it up!
Why I like this table....original design, my favorite type of wood, the exquisite pattern in the wood, and your dedication to creating something to your standards instead of cookie-cutter designs made to someone elses standards. And, because it's simply beautiful.
I was just scrolling in youtube when I passed your video. I love it when people make something totally different. Something THEY love. Not what others want to see. I also only have a double garage for a shop, and in there, with the tools I have, things happen. And I am able to provide for my family. Thank you for that video
Hey Keaton, That is a one beautiful and elegant table you built there. Great video as well. Will check out more of your work based on what I've seen. Regards James
It was funny when I started to appreciate the simpleness of your shop and how down to Earth is it you just started to voice over about it. I'm pretty sure soon you'll find yourself in a nice, clean, well equipped and dedicated shop but your current state is a great example for many of us who haven't even started yet. I actually had your video in my suggestion list at least a week ago and the reason I've finally clicked on it was mainly the material which I really liked, I have to say it absolutely did worth to watch.
Very happy your video showed up in my algorithm thing. An incredible build with outstanding video production. For what its worth: I really appreciate woodworkers who operate in smaller shops with basic tools due obviously to relatability. I have seen many UA-cam woodworkers "graduate" from simpler shops to very large and expensively equipped shops with CNC and 5HP table saws etc. and then I can no longer relate to their builds (although I am sincerely happy for their success). Thanks for the great video and best of luck as you pursue your dreams.
I appreciate that. It doesn't take much to do great work, but I have to say it would be nice to have a little more space, at least somewhere to put the kids bikes so I'm tripping on them less often.
I think back to my great grandpa working with hand tools only, some of the same ones I use, and how he could do it then with simple tools and lots of skill. Shows us we can too!
Dang where have you been hiding?!?! A beautiful piece of art without fancy tools, in a garage, and full of motivational words, you sir are going places! I’m gonna go make a thing now, thanks! Keep 🔨 Ohh I have to 💥 subscribe first!
It's based on Brad's from Fix This Build That, but I made the dimensions fit what I needed. Pretty handy to have and not too hard to make. I think it was all out of one sheet of plywood
Try a dowelmax doweling jig. It is night and day over the one you are using. They are a bit pricey but still way cheaper than the festool domino which I can’t justify spending that much money for. Great work on a beautifully designed table.
LOVED IT! You somehow popped up and it must be kizmit - were both at the same crossroads. Best wishes. PS - I did follow your guidance and you’ve got a new sub.
High quality craftsmanship is all about handmade details, unique design and time dedicated by the artisan who can turn a wooden piece into an inspiring object. When someone films and shares that process, then it becomes an inspiring story for all of us. Amazing work and thanks for choosing us to be a part of your project.
Thank you, it was one of those projects where I knew I had some special boards and wanted to let them carry the piece, I'm just here to highlight and add to it.
love the design, the whole thing is a bit skinny for my personal taste but every element is gorgeous. Would love to see a chunkier version at some point!
Wooooow. This is STUNning. The fact that it's deceptively simple looking is my favourite part of it. This build was a joy to watch and I love every reason for you building it. ❤😊
The design is gorgeous! I love the detailed joinery, the sliding dovetails are a neat idea for allowing the solid top to move with the seasons while have structural integrity and a thought toward its future to last as I know it’ll be passed down eventually. I love how the drawers are cut around to perfectly shape the beautiful legs! I love how the legs magically fit into the stretchers…Keep creating like this, it’s refreshing and thoughtful, again the joinery means worlds to me as I see more and more ppl post pocket hole projects and the art of this craft gets lost in ease and convenience! More pls!!! I’m very impressed with your style and look forward to more ideas and craftsmanship
Thank you for the kind comment! All those joinery decisions and details are very intentional so I appreciate you seeing that. It is pretty amazing what we can do with a little skill, some tools, and a whole lot of inspiration!
Keaton, I stumbled across your channel today. Wanna let you know that you did an excellent job on the table build, even better job on the video and the story in the video. Keep cranking you’ll get there.
Beautiful table 🎉😊. I loved the ending where you opened up about how you feel and why you are doing this project. I love challenging myself every time I build something. It's great for my skills, mental health and have the soul sing. Great job dude 😊
Thank you! I appreciate that. The challenge is the best part. I know some people like to get to the end product as quickly as they can, and I used to be that way, but I've learned that the fun part in life is the journey. So I do my best to enjoy it along the way. Glad to meet someone with similar feelings!
Great design and great video. One comment - you are getting so much vibration when hand sawing because your are about 12 inches away from the clamping point in the vise. If you move the work piece down into the vice with only an inch or two sticking out, you can eliminate that vibration and saw more accurately and smoothly. Cheers.
Great design mate!
Thank you!
Beautiful. I really love the curve, that you sort of "played it by ear" without drawn out plans, and you did it with simple tools. A Craftsman.
Thank you very much!

You are getting there, keep it up.
This won my sub to the channel. Holy smokes!
Bravo! On your way to living the dream. 🤘🏼
Getting closer every day!

Those curved corners look awesome.
Thanks! They were the starting point, I just had to find a project to make it happen.
Unique build, and I love the attention to detail! You got a new subscriber
Awesome, thank you!
There was multiple times is this video where I said “wow” out loud. Beautiful work and a beautiful video. Thanks for sharing with us
That means a lot to me. Glad you liked the video!
What a great journey ! Thanx for sharing.
Hey Keaton, That is a one beautiful and elegant table you built there. Great video as well.

Thank you James! I'm looking forward to your next video.
I appreciated the "simple" elegance of the drawer slide. Nice attention to detail.
Thank you. That's the second highlight for this project for me. But the leg curves take the cake!

Awesome looking. I love the callout about building in whatever space you've got and with whatever tools you have.

Really beautiful 👌

Damn fine job sir!!
That tool flipper contraption you have for your planer and sander is AMAZING!
It's based on Brad's from Fix This Build That, but I made the dimensions fit what I needed. Pretty handy to have and not too hard to make. I think it was all out of one sheet of plywood
I’ve never seen a leg/apron detail like that! I love it.
Beautiful. Inlays on the table top would look amazing too. Great work and good luck.
I agree, that would have added to it. I'll have to add inlay as a detail for a future project.
Try a dowelmax doweling jig. It is night and day over the one you are using. They are a bit pricey but still way cheaper than the festool domino which I can’t justify spending that much money for. Great work on a beautifully designed table.
Thanks for the advice, I'll look into it!
Amazing job.

Made me think about my start! Way to go man! Keep going,keep testing yourself a little at a time,next thing you know,your blowing minds!
Thanks! I'll keep on testing and pushing to improve
Beautiful Piece
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful table my friend! I love the hybrid flow you use between hand and power tools 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Thank you! There's always a best tool for the job and hand tools are very capable.
Your opening is just perfect. I love the side board it os the perfect mesh of subtle depth in complexity of patterns through gain.
Thank you, it was one of those projects where I knew I had some special boards and wanted to let them carry the piece, I'm just here to highlight and add to it.
20 seconds in and well done man, it looks amazing
Awesome! I appreciate it. Hope the next 20 minutes holds up as well as the first 20 seconds
@@keatonbeyerwoodworking they certainly did, absolutely love it

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the video and the build!
Love how you designed in your head without official plans. I love doing it that way because it produces happy accidents :)
It does, and the more you do it the happier those accidents become!
Love it!
I can't believe you are mixing hand tools and power tools. You are going to get into soo much trouble! 😂😅😊

Love this video & your work! Walnut is definitely a beautiful wood to work with!
Thank you!
Lovely job thanks for sharing!
Beautiful design. Came together great!
Thank you Kevin!

Beautiful
Lovely creation
Thank you!
What caught my eye was the wood grain on the thumbnail. I also really liked the curved corners. What wood is that?
Thanks! That's some walnut, but with some atypical grain. I'm not sure what caused that pattern and color but it was almost burly.
Great design and great video. One comment - you are getting so much vibration when hand sawing because your are about 12 inches away from the clamping point in the vise. If you move the work piece down into the vice with only an inch or two sticking out, you can eliminate that vibration and saw more accurately and smoothly. Cheers.
Thanks for the tip!
respect!!!!
No flash brand tools, more than made up for with talent and vision.
I appreciate that. Amazing what can be accomplished with those two things, plus some work.
And no ugly blue epoxy or pocket screws. Thank you
I do my best! Pocket holes have their place but fine furniture isn't one of them
Beautiful table!! Too much life lesson bla bla for my taste though
Good thing there are lots of options to pick from out there. Thanks for the comment.
