DIY Modern Coffee Table with Two Tools - Woodworking
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- You can build this entire coffee table with just two tools! But that doesn't mean that this is an easy woodworking project. it will still challenge you. In the video I go over everything that you should be thinking about, and a few woodworking tips to help you build this piece if you feel like giving it a shot. And if you don't, hopefully you enjoy the video anyhow :)

I've been a hobbyist woodworker for a little over a year now. RUclips is where I get the majority of my woodworking knowledge. Your channel is teaching me about how incredibly important well thought-out designs, with attention paid to form and function, are to my projects. To any project, actually. In fact, I find that your videos are the perfect example of this balance. Thank you.
Hey Duane...that's awesome. Always glad to hear people are gaining something from these videos :)
I love the work flow aspect... Always think two steps ahead...
This is doable with hand tools as well. I really like this design, great proportion and I like the use of the visible plywood laminations along with the steel legs. I wish the plywood had better cores with no gaps. Also I am an advocate of Miller Dowels they come in walnut and would have worked well on this project. Inspirational, thanks.
Thanks Terry...I wanted walnut dowels but didn't have the time unfortuantely. I'll look into those for the future though.
I think really what blows me away about your content, is your execution. Camera shots, scripting, music choice, ect. its just great, well made content. My dad was a professional finish carpenter, and he taught me much of what he knows, but I haven't had much experience in the field since he has been gone. Watching your videos makes me want to get back into it.
Thanks man...appreciate that. You should get back out there if you can find the time!
I love your logo and they way you named it, its like if you are assuming your glasses, or perhaprs a name you were given when you were a kid in the most eloquent of manners....... what an example of self confidence
I'm super confident...when I'm not hiding behind my glasses :)
So happy to see that one of my favorite RUclips channels has (or had) an S2000!❤
Chris.. Seeing your videos is learning, inspiring... but seeing and listening is an enjoyment. Thanks for sharing.
You are changing the game
Beautiful design..I think is mixture between Retro/ current era..
Nice..Good luck
I really like the exposed layers at a 45'.
always knocking it out of the park, filming, commentary and design.
Your voice totally suits these videos. Cool, confident and chilled.
Not only is the table a beautiful piece of art in my opinion, but the way you edit and produce your videos is as well. Love your work!
Bold strategy with holding the piece in place while the glue gets tacky. I'll have to try that! Cool build!
Thanks man...yeah, I'm sure I get lots of grief for it...but it worked.
Great project to highlight a lighter side of complexity while keeping it "involved". Those who want to keep you in one small corner and chastise you for something different just don't get it. Good stuff, Chris!
Thanks man...appreciate it. Also, thank you for chiming in and answering some of the common questions. Really appreciate that :)
Chris Salomone it's amazing what you learn by actually reading the comments first 😃
I like the simplicity but at the same time the elegance and style. great job, I always learn something with your videos.
Man, you make working with that Walnut ply look easy. Beautful coffee table.
I really like your channel. upon your request i followed and then got hooked. You explain your process. mistakes and materials. its a very good channel and your style is very enjoyable to watch. keep it up.
Thanks Paul...and thanks to the person who gave them recommendation :)
Great build! Enjoyed the narration.
-Caleb Harris
ah man the wood shop teacher I wish I had...love your voice over
Thanks Man!
such a nice project. simple, yet elegant design. i think i'll save that one asan idea for my future living room. thanks for being such an inspiration to me!!
I like your simple, yet elegant designs. Great how-to video, and your other videos too. Keep up the great work.
Thanks Cammie
I love the editing and camera angles. I appreciate your attention to detail and design in all aspects of your work.
Cool project Chris and a great design. You Nailed It.
No...I used all glue.
JK. Thanks :)
Good one man, you not only have a good knack of gluing the components of furniture, but also the viewers. Keep it up, man!
Wow beautiful art.
Stumbled upon you. Already a fan. I like branching out and finding new people and projects to get ideas from. Instant fan. Thanks for what you do!
Thanks! Glad you found me :)
This is just pure design, knowledge, perfection and meditation. Really like this channel, great video, voice, music everything haha! I'm not often replying, but this just satisfies me! Thanks Chris :)
Thanks Rowin :)
You have an intriguing mix of relaxation, instruction, and entertainment all in one. Thank you for creating content.
I watch this every time u post a video its better na great than the after.love your art work.from Kenya since I started watching this you have never disappointed me
Thanks Geoffrey. Glad you're enjoying. Greetings from the US!
Simply gorgeous!
Best woodworking channel on RUclips. Thank you for the video!
Thanks Michael :)
Awesome job again Chris. Well done.
your videos are just so easy to watch and enjoy, the style, the narration, the content...
keep it up, you're killing it!
Love ben and mike’s content, but your videos are absolutely top notch and my favorite. Narration, footage, music.... love it!
Yet again. A wonderful project and a smooth production. Thanks for your inspirations!
I really love the detail without covering the bevels I always liked that combination
Thanks Jorge!
This is such a beautiful and clear design. I love just about everything about it. Discovered your channel about a week ago and I binged every video you posted. Calm music, great design and a pinch of philosophy and self-reflection. You capture the essence. I look forward to more.
Arne
Thanks UU - really appreciate the kind words :-)
Great video :) Thanks for explaining the order of operations so clearly, definitely learned something!
Thanks Ellen :)
Great video as always. Especially liked your words in the end about the feeling of accomplishment in your projects. I think that resonates in many woodworkers/makers. Cheers!
Like your videos. My dad built cabinets and I can appreciate what you do. It's funny, but when you pulled out those metal legs I remembered that one of the first table my dad built probably 50 years ago had legs almost exactly like those but end table length. I still have that table.
This one is still my favorite of the coffee tables you have made. I like the "heavy emptiness".
I love your style, both video editing and design. My fav woodworking YT chanel!
Chris your execution on these project is so awesome!! I always look forward to your videos!! Keep up the good work!!!
i like the desing of it, simple, love it
This is my favorite project of yours. I like unique look of the project for something so simple in concept.
Thanks Ben :)
Great filming and narration Chris. I'll stay tuned!
Just love your videos Chris. They're very inspiring and you have such an amazing wY of telling a story. I could honestly sit and watch your videos all day long. Love your MCM inspired designs. Thank you for your continued inspiration and sharing.
Thanks Pat :)
Your videos are amazingly inspiring, relaxing and insightful. Thank you.
:-)
I really like your play-by-play/build-thought-process you add to these vids. This is great info and advice for people that haven't dealt with these types of tasks yet! I wish youtube videos like this existed when I was starting woodworking...but in the early 2000's it was all forums and message boards! :D
When I started there were a few people on RUclips. The wood whisperer was the main person I watched. I also read a lot of forums :)
You done it again Chris. Great job.
as always thank you! if possible can you elaborate or even make a video on your steps for your final finish.
Really nice job on the table Chris! Brilliant job on the video as always
Great video as always man. Think I might give this table a go, great project for a weekend
Awesome! simple and great.
Thank you thank you thank you. I enjoyed this very much. You are awesome 😎
I like this project !
Simply amazing channel. Love your artistic presentation!
you did it again, great job Chris, thanks for sharing
Still loving the videos! Keep up the inspiration!
Hey Draax. Thank you :)
Your videos are always so calming!!! Great build! 👌🏻
Great video and project as usual. Like other have said, it felt a little unfinished to me, but after seeing your replies I get it. I love the project, and it defiantly can start off as a base to go into many different directions with it. Thanks for sharing
I really like the table. As others have mentioned, they are not fond of the dowels. What I think would look neat, using metal rods as dowels, it would look like buttons stitching them together.
Love it, very brave with the exposed ply ends, my wife wouldn't like that. Awesome job anyway, love the style, I grew up in the 70's and thus style was everywhere.
Thanks Dave. Sounds like it'll be going in the man cave
Impressive production quality.
Thanks Chris, Great video and great build. Always look forward to your posts.
Appreciate it Lee!
Bringing in the sponsors!! Nice work, glad to see you're getting some money for all your work making these vids. Also, thanks for keeping the pitch short.
Excellent project. Normally I don't love dowel joints, but the contrast it creates here is quite nice.
Thanks Robert!
Super!! I like ur idea.
thx again from Thailand.
😘
I love this video! Its great to see an easier project like this.
Yeah. it'll be interesting to see if lots of people give it a shot.
Hello Chris, i just find out your channel last week and already saw all of your videos - very nice, modest and pleasant for watching and listening. I usually want more simpler and if i could say - more ruff projects (distressed hardwood, logs or something like that) but your products and their clean design and execution is exquisite. You are doing great job here sir! Go on with your nice work and looking forward for more of your videos. Cheers!
Thanks Gonzo...glad you found me and are digging everything :)
Love everything about your work. Every single thing! Best of luck and keep it up!
Amazing table.
His face at 3:54 is priceless.
Awesomely instructive video, I think the mitered edges all around is a nice touch but could have been edge banded with something to cover up the imperfect edge of the plywood. Keep up the good work!
Yeah. you could definitely do that. I actually liked the contrast in this case though. it were butt joints I would definitely edge band.
@@Foureyes.Furniture where can I find that blue jacket? Serious. Thanks for the vid so inspired to take on this stuff.
who knew plywood could be that beautiful! Getting more and more envious of the material choices you have overseas compared to here (Norway). we got pine, spruce and oak, but the latter is crazy expensive. like a 39" piece of 1"x 4" is $37 O.o
Yikes :-/
Thanks for sharing Chris, neat project
Just watched a few videos. Very impressed. Good work .
Thanks Thomas Babcock ... appreciate it!
good job as always
I always liked your style of presentation, your designs are super astetic and the information you give us definitely helps. Once I saw the s2000 it sealed the deal for me 😁😁
Haha...best car you can get for the money :)
Very inspiring project, Chris! I love the back bevel on the two short side pieces going into the big compartment!
You are staring to be my favorite RUclips channel. Great work.
:)
Great video and another cool project! :)
Chris if you ever come to Portland I'll show you how to rip a full sheet on a table saw.
Hey Robert...I've done it a couple times. Not well. Unfortunately, for me it also involves clearing out everything behind the table saw (my band saw, dust collecter, and lots of wood) in order to get the 7.5" of clearence needed.
As a cabinet maker it is pretty essential and time saving to cut a full sheet, but it takes a lot of practice to get a clean cut. But if I had to move even one thing I wouldn't bother either. Hahah I'm lucky enough to have a couple saws at work and then bring it to my basement shop.
Top shelf Chris another fine JOB
great video! gives me ideas to work on for my own projects :) thank you
Great!
I'm happy you got the sponsor, cause I'm too poor to patreon, but I like your show very much. Although I'm not big fan of playwood edges showing up :).
You're gonna hate the next project then.
JK
I think that table would look really neat with exposed edges like that if you used bamboo plywood. I think that's what I'll do! :)
Go for it! send me a picture :)
I didn't blink at all during the video... Well done!
Thanks Wesley. Get some eye drops now :)
*TopFineWoodworking. Com* , is a very comprehensive woodworking book! It breaks every little thing down, utilizing words, drawings, real pictures, and different diagrams. It`s unbelievably informative and helps me feel like I could help my sibling while we make our furniture together.?
Nice coffee table Chris!
Thanks Jolien!
I just finished watching your videos... Got yourself another sub sir. Great work, editing, and music. Looking forward to more!
Thanks Snickers. Glad you joined me :)
That is some damn fine work!
Nice Chris!
Looks great!
Really nice design on this table.
Very nice.
great video again!
As a poor guy, what I usually do is using rope instead of clamps for that work, like luthiers do.
Really nice work, all your videos (specially the tables and desks) are great.
Nice!
Looks great! Enjoyed the video. I've ordered from Industrial By Design and really liked the product. I would definitely use them again!
Nice...thanks Bruce :)
Nice work again!
Did you think about covering the cutting edges with vaneer? To me that would be difference between a nice table like you built it and a perfect result. I am not really shure about the dowel, first I thought that there are screws but the I saw the rest of the video and I'm not shure if I like the dowels. But I really like the idea of the beveled edges.
Thanks for your great work and sharing it,
Günther
Thanks Gunther. I didn't want to cover the plywood on this project. I actually like the contrast. And I was going for a simpler/rougher look here.
