hey i think you should build a little lounge under the treehouse so if its raining or snowing you could be under the treehouse as building walls and a door to it i think itll be a good addition to the house also itll be great if youd respond thanks!
I like the fact that you showed the trial and error of making this table. You did a great job of demonstrating that while it is a "simple" project, its not necessarily "easy" and people shouldnt get discouraged by not getting it right the first time. My first workbench was a real learning experience, but now i can make a bench you could drop an engine on :) (tho i admit, i used a drill and 2x4's rather than raw wood...which does make it a lot simpler hehe)
you can make your own wood filler with glue and sawdust, (or just buy some) and maybe with a plane and sandpaper could make some really nice smooth table tops. bringing a few rasps and files along might also make it easier to shape some of your furniture. Probably worth lugging some woodworking hand tools up there in general. awesome vids guys. earned my sub!
Loved the David Attenborough begining, flipping ace. This vid was kinda like watching an ikea flat pack being assembled, but in alot less time haha. Your treehouse is putting my poxy london flat to shame lol keep up the vids guys :)
Awesome looking table there! Adding some more X bracing in the section in between the two sets of legs. Would stiffin up the table even more I believe. I'd love to cook on that table though! The tree house is really coming together.
Great video, very entertaining. I'm sure someone already mentioned this in the comments but, run a diagonal brace from under one end of the table across to the legs on the other side. Bam! Stable! 🤘🤘 Take care -Chris
I like the work you did on the table top; that looks quite functional. The structural problem is that you have all parallel braces; from the side, it is just parallelograms and subject to end-to-end wobble and collapse. You need a couple of diagonal braces to make it much more stable.
if you made another bipod, it would be like a set of saw horses and it makes cutting the logs a lot easier. a set of tripods would be even better. keep up the awesome videos!! i really like them and i like seeing how other people do this kind of stuff. cheers from minnesota!
15:46 WATCH OUT ! A dangerous Canadian-Wooden-Snake you got there, mate! :D Greetings from Germany! :) Unfortunately, we in Germany, have strict Laws such as: it is not allowed to chop down trees and so on. SO frustrating! We always have to look for Wood that is already on the ground... But we are doing it anyway, so .. :DD Love your Videos !! Keep it up!
+Marius Pf hahaha thanks Marius. Yeh it kinda sucks, in Canada you have the same laws except on private land, so we are lucky to be able to use this land. Thanks for the great comment! All the best from Canada 🇨🇦
"How did other people do this ?" Much tighter joints and better lashings. Paracord is good, but I suspect kind of expensive. Buy a large spool (200-300M) of BTAIDED nylon cord (about 2-3mm) in the Sporting Goods section of eBay. It will take about 6-8 times as much cord. The proper starting/finishing knot is a clove hitch, Learn the difference between wrapping and frapping.
For next time, think about triangles when you are trying to stabilise wonky frames. The reason the end "X's" were so stable is because they made triangles. you needed to make another triangle from the centre of the table to the joint of the "X" and but those two bits at the centre against each other.
Love your work!!! All you need is an X like your legs, but going the other way... ie running the length from short end to short end. A straight beam like the one between your X legs doesn't need to change length when you move it from side to side so offers no compression or tension... Just wobble. An X would have to distort and change in a lot of ways giving as much strength as you X legs. I think :) But how should I know.... I'm a potter - 120 things in 20 years / epic solar boating adventure
I was saying to myself WHAT THE HELL???? It was done so perfectly I thought it would be a whole documentary type thing. I liked the chipmunk at the end too, Bow. Thanks guys!
+john difrancisco Haha thanks John, yeh people said I do a good impression so had to sneak a few in there to spice up the generic "this is us walking to the treehouse" shots 😂
Guys, a table of the sort you were making is essentially the same as a bridge. First chance you get, LOOK at a bridge. Your table will take a lot of weight that is being applied at a 90 degree angle to the table top (the road surface of your bridge). However, unlike a bridge you don't have mother earth at either end preventing it from collapsing from pressure to the edge of and along the length of the table. As it stands, the table could be collapsed with one finger pushed against the table top, along its length. The solution is not more supports that run parallel to the surface of the table (bridge). You only need one of those (at the crossing points of the legs). That was the first brace you installed. What you need is two shorter pieces that run from the underside of the table top ends, dropping (at approximately a 45 degree angle), to meet at the top of your first brace. It's all about vectors, force applied at angles. Once you see that, it's easy-peasy. If you diagram the table and ask how it responds to force coming from all three directions, it solves itself.
And I don't want to just point to the negative: I like your videos a lot. I use a Silky Big Boy 2000 XL and felt a twinge of saw envy as I watched the Katana Boy slice through the wood. Fare forward, gents.
I know this is an old video and y'all might not respond but I'm banking on a little bit of hope that I have. I love the music in the videos y'all make. It goes great with the content. Could y'all tell me where y'all get it so that I can use some of it in my videos?
+raphael drayton haha yeh, tell you what, that one comes in handy man! Every now and again to gets put over the fire to help keep it reasonably sanitary, and in winter...give you a heated toilet seat 😂
great work, looks really nice; but why did you not bring a chisel with you, when you noticed several times in the proces of working already how much you need that? Thanks for sharing!
Construction work in the woods ... :D To stabilize a square or rectangular frame so that the frame cannot move to one or another side looking like a parallelogram, you have to connect two diagonal corners with a bar. Or more strengthy each pair of diagonal corners with a bar! Which you put crosswise. The frame then looks like confederate "stars and bars"! And when you put those inner diagonal bars inside the frame in the same level as the outer bars, you even do not need nails etc. to fix them! After changing to newest first I just see that the honorable Bruce Dobson gave the same advice 6 hours earlier! Sorry! :D
Angle pieces guys. Going from x to mid top cross piece on both ends creating their own x when viewed from the wide side. Make ing more work for yourself.that middle piece you made was useless.
If you and struts from the bottom of each leg bipod to the underside of the opposite end of the table top, it will form structural triangles to limit the wobble😉
Watching your video, my grandson and I were talking, and we think that a third set of legs, or using tripods on the ends would/ may have saved some trouble . What do you think?
new subscriber here excellent video...you guys should build a bushcraft reclined bench much like a park bench. I know when I'm in the woods I get tired of standing up or sitting over a log all the time. Sometimes I just wanna drink a pint and relax next to the campfire with a chair or bench with some back support that way if I get too tipsy I don't fall over
1 diagonal piece from the top of one leg to the bottom of the perpendicular leg would have shored it up, but still, it will do for your purposes. Job well done :D
When you were cutting off the bark with the axe I was thinking why you didn't use a draw knife since it would be much quicker, and looks like you thought of it after doing the first log.
why dont build massive wood walls under the tree house and build a little oven out of flat stones with an mud/hair combinaition for the chimmney or so ... i hope yo understand what i wanna say :) (SRY for bad english im from germany bruh) btw, very good vids and high quality filming ... i enjoy you stuff. dont unterstand why you have not much subs bruh... good day ♥♥💛♥♥💛 NICE VIDEOSSSS♥
Omg im so hyped ! I cant wait to see how you tree house shelter is getting bigger an bigger. I think an oven and massive walls are something like the heart of an Bushcraft building. Pls stay at this video and cutting quality, i think everybody enjoy it !
Love the videos. I could go without the "Subscribe for more content" popup every two minutes though, especially on a longer video like this. There is simply no need for it. Anyone who takes the time to watch the whole video is already subscribed. Cheers
I agree withWestin. All the top channels are avoiding this. They have a mention either at the begining either the end and that's it. Otherwise it makes you look to "commercial" and too much pushing for it. Just one mention and no more. The quality content and the friendliness of the people on camera does it.
Love your videos. This one had me grinning. Your table needs gussets, cross members, a triangle of some sort. Why did you make an X with the legs rather than coming straight down from the corners? Because the X stabilizes the table. The same principles applies for both directions. "That's how other people do it." :) I hope this helps.
You guys seriously need to look into a shave horse. Sorry if I'm a bit late to the party, but a shave horse would make such a big difference to your tinder making as well. Also, the design of a draw blade makes it almost impossible to cut yourself as long as you distance yourself more than an inch from your materials.
there are several videos on UA-cam that show how to make it. It's pretty simple. You remove the bark from the birch tree and scrape with your knife the orange layer underneath the bark off. it's the orange bits that you steep in boiled water to make a tea.
Awhhh you guys forgot about diagnol bracing that I taught you years ago.. remember your other table ? Yes ,it's me mark the Michigan Carpenter boys!!! Get it fixed.. lol
Please except this as no contradiction, but as constructive criticism. I thoroughly enjoy your efforts at constructing a really nice camp. Your table is way over built. I’m not sure that I have the ability to explain in words what I’m trying to help you with, but I will give it a try. Two forty five angled cuts on a log the same size in diameter as the logs on your legs and attached with nails to the under part of your table and then attached with nails to the cross piece which have given you plenty of support and prevented any wiggle on your table. Ya. After reading this over eight is an awfully bad in wordy explanation. I have noticed that others have attempted the same thing that I am doing, but they actually know the English language. Perhaps you had better pay attention to them because I don’t not speak da Inglishes talk very gooded. I really do enjoy your videos. Please keep them up
Another longer vid, hope you guys enjoy. Smash that like button or drop a comment if you did!
Bushcraft Heroes I like this long video
hey i think you should build a little lounge under the treehouse so if its raining or snowing you could be under the treehouse as building walls and a door to it i think itll be a good addition to the house also itll be great if youd respond thanks!

guys a V brace from each end of the table top to the top cross bar will stiffen it up good... Great video...
+tragicmagicMAN thanks man, yeh we have to do that!
I'm going to make one. So fun to watch and learn and do.
+Marina Michaelides haha, use diagonal braces to make it stronger 💪🏼
Of course. What's so funny, have you seen me with an axe and sharpening tools? Polished mate.
Loved the David Attenborough begining, flipping ace. This vid was kinda like watching an ikea flat pack being assembled, but in alot less time haha. Your treehouse is putting my poxy london flat to shame lol keep up the vids guys :)
+cla ire thanks Clair, glad you enjoyed it!
Is it just me or when they were taking the bark off 5:29 is was super satisfying
+Seabass Gaming I know it was for us!
Nice work guys! Awesome video too! Thanks for sharing.
+Island Bushcraft thanks for the comment 😀
There's already graffiti on the fu***** table. My favorite line yet of your series. Put that shit on a plaque. Good stuff guys.
Thanks Vincent 😂
looks really well by the end . nice job dudes
+megan o connor thanks Megan 👍🏼
Awesome looking table there! Adding some more X bracing in the section in between the two sets of legs. Would stiffin up the table even more I believe. I'd love to cook on that table though! The tree house is really coming together.
+Kevin K thanks Kevin, yeh I can wait to start using g it!
Good work fellas! That area looks amazing
+BUSHCRAFTER 1973 thanks 👍🏼

finally a nice long video on the tree house. love the channel, keep it up.
+piggy106 gaming thanks man, appreciate that 👍🏼
Great video, very entertaining. I'm sure someone already mentioned this in the comments but, run a diagonal brace from under one end of the table across to the legs on the other side. Bam! Stable! 🤘🤘
Take care -Chris
+Windham Woodcraft yes they have but it never hurts to hear it again! Thanks Chris!

Best series on UA-cam
+Drew Z thanks Drew ❤️
Hey, amazing video
that looks better than my table
+Pumba and Timon the 2nd aww thanks
ooooh so thats how you make a canadian knot .... i need to learn more
NICE
Thanks!
Bushcraft Heroes use the diagonal bracing to stiffen up the built table
I'm so inspired
+Trenty_ Smity awesome 👍🏼
if you made another bipod, it would be like a set of saw horses and it makes cutting the logs a lot easier. a set of tripods would be even better. keep up the awesome videos!! i really like them and i like seeing how other people do this kind of stuff. cheers from minnesota!

The bushcraft table looks awesome. But I was thinking you were going to brace it like the saw horse. But it still works and that all that matters.
+Tressa Zimmerman This video is what sport do the comments that lead us into knowing how to do the horizontal braces
Bushcraft Heroes you guys work so well together. And you can see you think things into reality. So cool
Awesome

Yeah thanks for the feeback. We learnt a lot about diagonal bracing since this video 👍

+Oh Yeaah thanks 👍🏼
I like the toilet you built
+raphael drayton haha yeh, tell you what, that one comes in handy man! Every now and again to gets put over the fire to help keep it reasonably sanitary, and in winter...give you a heated toilet seat 😂
Bushcraft Heroes you should build a wool for some privacy
+raphael drayton yeh, eventually we will dig a hole and make a semi permanent toilet 🚽
I was wondering how much a diagonal piece between a top corner and the opposite bottom corner would help to stabilize
+Bruce Dobson yeh a few people have said that, I think it will definitely help!
great work, looks really nice; but why did you not bring a chisel with you, when you noticed several times in the proces of working already how much you need that? Thanks for sharing!
+Saturn Inc yeh chisel needs to happen lol
Nice table, just a thought how about a hand drill make dowels to put together? May save on cordage
+Don Brown yeh we actually have one set up now so next time 😉

Angle pieces guys. Going from x to mid top cross piece on both ends creating their own x when viewed from the wide side. Make ing more work for yourself.that middle piece you made was useless.
+Richard Levy haha yeh that is the general consensus! Thanks for the comment!
found this channel literally last night, already watched half the videos... I have no life
+faithfulsheep haha thanks for watching 👍🏼
love the Bush craft and can you expand the camp
+CS survival yes we can and will 👍🏼
You guys should make a tool station
+Master gamer 25 that's a great idea, and the first time it's been suggested! A tool rack!
If you and struts from the bottom of each leg bipod to the underside of the opposite end of the table top, it will form structural triangles to limit the wobble😉
+James Darby thanks James!
Watching your video, my grandson and I were talking, and we think that a third set of legs, or using tripods on the ends would/ may have saved some trouble . What do you think?
+David Weirauch I think you are absolutely right 👍🏼
new subscriber here excellent video...you guys should build a bushcraft reclined bench much like a park bench. I know when I'm in the woods I get tired of standing up or sitting over a log all the time. Sometimes I just wanna drink a pint and relax next to the campfire with a chair or bench with some back support that way if I get too tipsy I don't fall over

great video guys ;)
+Aron Keller thanks 🙏
Great video just wondering how many more of these are you going to do.
+jhgvc as many as we can, we love being there and making videos so yeh, plenty more coming your way
1 diagonal piece from the top of one leg to the bottom of the perpendicular leg would have shored it up, but still, it will do for your purposes. Job well done :D
+Garuthius Hall thanks man!
Maybe up your tool kit with a brace and bit, plus a few chiseled. Pegs to hold things together and easier to clean out notches with a chisel.
+Danny Rowe yes indeed, I think we have a couple now!
When you were cutting off the bark with the axe I was thinking why you didn't use a draw knife since it would be much quicker, and looks like you thought of it after doing the first log.
+RealCDNBacon13 haha yes indeed!
why dont build massive wood walls under the tree house and build a little oven out of flat stones with an mud/hair combinaition for the chimmney or so ... i hope yo understand what i wanna say :) (SRY for bad english im from germany bruh)
btw, very good vids and high quality filming ... i enjoy you stuff. dont unterstand why you have not much subs bruh...
good day ♥♥💛♥♥💛
NICE VIDEOSSSS♥
Haha yeh i get you! Something like that is coming in the future! Cant wait! Thanks for the comment!
Omg im so hyped ! I cant wait to see how you tree house shelter is getting bigger an bigger. I think an oven and massive walls are something like the heart of an Bushcraft building.
Pls stay at this video and cutting quality, i think everybody enjoy it !
Haha thanks man, yes for sure. Always trying to improve the channel quality!

thanks it's me conna a subscriber

I think I like your table much more then mine... ... lol.
+A Walsh in the Woods haha but yours is probably way less work lol
I am not so sure..... those little logs for mine were actually bastards to round up!! lol.
+A Walsh in the Woods hahah we have the same trouble finding small ones! Thanks for the comment 👍🏼
add diagonal bracing to prevent shear, the legs should support the frame instead of just the two end planks.
+Stan Jellen right, thanks man! We will give that a try!
This treehouse looks sick but what kind of camera you use
Maybe a crossbar under the legs might help with the stability
+saverinnot yes indeed, thanks for the tip!
Yup it is official. I like you guys. You have a sub from me. Cheers.
+J Bot thanks! Hope you enjoy the content!
graffiti after a few mins of being there haha ! you guys are messers 😉😉😉
+megan o connor haha yes indeed!
where did you get the waney edges from?
What draw knife did you use?
It’s a flex cut draw knife
Love your videos. This one had me grinning. Your table needs gussets, cross members, a triangle of some sort. Why did you make an X with the legs rather than coming straight down from the corners?

No problem I stumbled across your tree house videos and binge watched them all. I really enjoyed them you guys are are doing great.
+Liberty Prepper thanks, glad your enjoying it 👍🏼
I'm by no mean a bush-person but why tie the frame for your table together instead of using spikes?
+kebab4you - we didn't have the drill at the time
maybe get a drill and peg them together :D
+Thatsme849 yep 👍🏼
What country r you guys in ? Canada 🇨🇦?
+Grandad Cap yes indeed
What song you have in your video about 8:30 starting?
+Tarmo P not 100% I use epidemic sound for the music. Maybe Shazam it?

thank you!
btw I love your vids! keep this series going!
+Jack Does Nerf thanks man, we will don't worry! Cheers for the comments 👍🏼
ha you have enough wood in that table to build a porch. Notching and wood pegs would be very sturdy.
+Phil Rusciano thanks for the tip. Yeh it kinda kept getting more elaborate!
