Why do you stain all the parts before putting it together

[@rustydogandco]

I don’t normally but I was worried that it would be difficult to stain the inside with it being such a narrow table. It might not have been but it never hurts to be prepared for the worst haha. 😆

[@wouterengels7769]

Given the lack of loads, wouldn't dowels have been easier for the joints?
Can't argue with the result though, it looks good!

[@rustydogandco]

Dowels probably would have worked fine as well. There are usually many different ways to do the same thing in woodworking…unfortunately I often forget what they are. 😂

[@Dr_philgood]

Awesome video! Really shows how much work goes in to a smaller piece

[@rustydogandco]

Thank you! Cheers! 🍻

[@paulbartocci2772]

Great job staining your wood before you join! Looks great

[@rustydogandco]

Thanks 👍
