$6,000 Two Day Table Build

- Опубликовано: 1 дек 2023
- I recently designed a table for a client and liked it so much I wanted to build it again. But this time I wanted to see if I could build it in 2 days! I also wanted to share why I made the decisions I did.

This guy is a pro so I could be 1000% wrong. But I was always taught to let my lumber sit for a bit between stages of milling because it’s not if but when it’ll shift. I usually joint and plane then let sit over night and see if I need to do I little more before a glue up. Just because I was taught with every cut your exposing moisture and if you glue same day as milling your top can potato chip on you.
There was a solid 5 days between day 1 and day 2. You absolutely need to let the lumber rest. Also, this wood was sitting in my shop for 3 weeks prior to milling to allow it to acclimate.
@@CoffeyCustomBuilds haha gotcha! With the age old trickery of video editing I thought these were back to back days. I’m glad to know I haven’t been wasting time letting it sit.
@@HarrisonFord11 we should have been clear about that. Thank you for asking. It is very important to let wood sit.
Well written comment to make an important contradiction without sounding like a troll 👍
You make it look so easy. Love the story telling
Thank you!
Gorgeous. Now I just need a table saw, mitre saw, jointer, planer, panarouter, handheld router, Festool domino, CNC machine, router table, Festool random orbital sander, buffer, and I’m set.
Yup! And 5-10 of experience using those tools.
Dont forget the iron!
Really loved the new video Mike! Really enjoyed the editing, how the process flowed very well in its natural progression and how you explained the steps throughout not hiding the true realities of working with a natural resource. Great work bro!
Thanks dude! I appreciate you watching and the feedback!
great video! love the technical explanations in between clips
Awesome! Gonna be doing that more often.
Beautiful table! Thank you for sharing. When I first saw it before starting to watch I thought bridle joints.
I also love your shop
Bridles would have been great for this for sure.
Great video! Thanks again Mike. I’ll be referring back to this for a table I will be building (hopefully) soon.
Thanks for watching!
Another great video Mike and a fantastic design on the table.
Appreciate it! I'm loving this design!
Mike- Just awesome! You are living the dream! Congratulations.
Thanks man! I love what I do.
Great looking table! Thanks for showing us the details.
Thank you my friend!
New to your channel. Loved the video. The process, the instruction, and the ability to deliver it all in ~15 minutes. Can't tell you how enjoyable that made it. Most of these that are 30-60 minutes can be mostly for the maker not the audience. Well done.
Thank you and welcome! That is our goal and hope. We want to make videos for for everyone.
Solid video. I really like the format. Sorta brings back memories watching New Yankee Workshop.
I'll take that as a compliment!
Tons of great info! Loved the video
Thanks dude! Trying to make it informative!
Mike you freaking killed it as usual! I felt like I was watching a clip from HGTV or Magnolia. Between the woodworking, the transitions, clips, b-roll, your speaking and the music choice. This was very well put together. Inspired me forsure
Thanks so much man! Hopefully other people like it too!
Beautiful table. I always enjoy your videos.
Thank you sir!
Awesome project man, congratulations.
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice job, that table looks great!
Thank you sir!
Looks great
Thank you!
A work of art!!!
Thank you!
Great song choice! I really appreciate that and your work of course too. ;)
Thank you very much!
Amazing build.
Those little bessey jaw adaptors look so useful! Never seen them used before
They are so good! Use them often.
Wow, 6 grand! Well done.
That grain reveal! Really nice build and great video! I want to build a table for our television. It won’t be this nice but I really liked this video.
Thank you so much and I'm sure it will be fantastic
Simple, pretty, my kind of table
Same here. Not a fan of the ornate.
That adjustable L fence is awesome, I think I’ll have to make one!
It's a game changer. I have a video on it with a link to a free cut list on my website. I'm also prototyping one I'm going to sell.
Great build. I’m now a subscriber. Keep it up.
Thank you so much!
Very nice design and build; well done. I have a Laguna 18BX and couldn't help but notice that your fence is quite different to mine which I recently bought. I think yours is a far superior design to the current iteration. Damn.
Thank you very much. That's actually their DX 3 Drift master fence. I'm fortunate to be a beta tester. It's amazing. It will be released in the coming months. Worth the investment.
You’re definitely one of my favorites on RUclips.
Wow thank you so much!
Hi Mike, I never knew about the water and iron trick! I will have to try that on my desk as I put a couple of small dents in it by accident. Maybe they will pop back out. Great video!
I hope it works!
Nice build!
Thank you!
The thing about the pantorouter and tenons, you have to test-fit while it's still clamped and sneak up on the right width while moving the guide bearing down the template bevel.
Correct.
Two days? That's impressive. That would take me weeks. The table is beautiful.
To be fair, my shop is set up for production and we specialize in tables.
Like your video as informative, clear, and void of the pretentiousness that seems prevalent in many woodworking videos of late. Keep up the good work. +1 subscriber.
Awesome! Thanks so much!
Great video again Mike. And a good looking table you build there. I really like what you're doing and your channel. Loads to learn but aiming to be at that level at some point
Man thank you so much! Glad you are enjoying it!
I’m a hand tool only guy, and it would take me days/weeks just to prep the stock for that table.
Ahhh that makes sense. Hand tools are such an important part of the process.
Two days if you got all them fancy tools 😂😉🙏🏽 dude has some skills tho big up’s to him ! Only wish to have a workshop like that ! Maybe one day
Yup! I didn't say you could build it in two days.
Great looking table. Love the proportions! What wood is that?
Thank you so much! It's walnut.
Nice table. The $6k part in the header? Are you telling us, that you sold that table for $6000.00? WOW!
I sold this table in white oak slightly larger for $6500. This was made for this video but has since sold for $6,000 including freight.
Great video! I'm hoping to leave the IT world behind one day and transition into woodworking. What finish was used? It looks really nice and I'm sorry if this was asked and answered before. Subscribed.
Thanks for the sub! I used Rustic Lumber Finish. It's a hard wax oil that I prefer and have used for a couple years now. I threw a link on the description. This was the clear.
Mike, I'd like to know where you got that roller that appears intended for pressing down auto sound-deadening material but makes a dandy glue roller with that eccentric groove pattern.
I'm not a fan of "20th century modern", but that table has to be an exception. Beautiful!
Here's a link to the glue roller:
amzn.to/3NVdJH7
Works great! I have this one and the green one.
Thank you so much
I'm actually curious about the filler you use for knots and defects. I use either epoxy or CA glue (for small holes), but have been looking for alternatives. Great table design by the way!
Thank you! It's Ptec Black
Great build. are you planning on doing plans for this table? Thanks
I wasn't initially but I'm thinking about it now.
What clamps are those when you did up the legs? I like how they spread out the pressure.
They are attachments for the Bessey K Body's. I'll add a link to the description.
Freakin sick. What did you put on your mirka to apply the finish ?
Thanks man! It's a 6" white scotch Brite pad.
@@CoffeyCustomBuilds thanks for the reply!
Will you be able to use that 7th board in something else (cut down to a small size)?
Absolutely! I wouldn't let it go to waste. I resawed it into shop sawn veneers to make some boxes for Christmas gifts.
Such a beautiful creation. What species of timber/lumber/wood was used in the manufacture
That is quarter sawn walnut!
Would you have considered using the Domino for the joints that were cut with the Pantorouter?
You definitely could. I would do the joint different but it could definitely be done.
Is that a newer or older DF 500 domino? I just noticed your height-stop is green. Mine is black. I've had mine for a while and am just now noticing. Nice build, great video! Keep it up!
Thanks so much! It's a custom height gauge I got online.
@@CoffeyCustomBuilds oh, rad. Are the measurements imperial instead of metric?
Just found your channel, great work. At about 10:20 or so you are hand planing to clean up the top, why are you hand planing instead of sanding? I've never used a hand plane but it seems like it would be harder to make everything flat when using a hand plane and not doing passes the entire table length. Just curious. Thank you!
The hand plane puts things on the same plane. So it knocks down any high spits. The material that's being removed it higher than the rest. Therefore making it level. Typically it's only higher at the seams. I would have hand plane finished the whole top but the finish I used (hard wax oil) can't be applied to a hand planes surface. It has to be sanded. So the whole top was sanded after I knocked down the high spots with the hand plane.
@@CoffeyCustomBuilds I understand the point of the hand plane. And what it does. Could you not have just sanded down the high spots? I guess that’s what I was getting at. Since I don’t own a hand plane, this is probably what I would have done. But I can see how a hand plane would be more efficient and probably more accurate
@noahbriley definitely can. This is just faster and more enjoyable. I hate sanding.
Nice table, great video!
Since you have mentioned in the title I hope you don't mind if I'm asking about that $6K. Please believe me it comes from pure curiosity.
While this is a really nice piece it couldn't really be any more simple, very straight forward, no tricky joinery no wild angles... Well you have finished it in two days. I'm no expert of the USA timber prices, here I could buy this amount/quality for $3-500 tops. I don't count the glue and the fittings, however that finish (rubio?) could cost some bucks, still I believe we're way under $1K in material. if you add $1000/day for labor (nice!) we're still at the half of that price you mentioned.
How could you sell a nice but really simple average sized table that made of some ordinary wood (oak?) for that lot of money?
Sorry if I was too straight forward, I really just would like to see it.
I'm fortunate to live near multiple highly affluent areas. Local and handmade does really well in this area. Specifically the Bay Area (tech center of the US).
Great table..what is the wood species you used ..thanks
I used quarter sawn walnut
Could you comment on the finish? Applying it with the sander is genius!
Happy to answer questions. What do you want to know?
@@CoffeyCustomBuilds I had the same question. What is the finish? Was that a buffing pad used to apply it or something else? It looked like a regular sander with some sort of pad.
Beautiful build! I likely missed it, but what is the finish you used?
It's Rustic Lumber Finish. It's my go to hardwax oil finish. rusticlumberstore.com/products/rustic-lumber-furniture-oil?ref=coffey
@@CoffeyCustomBuilds thank you!!
If one doesn’t own a panarouter, would using the domino be your next best alternative?
That would definitely work.
Out of curiosity.. do also make the chairs for such a table or do the clients find their own?
I do make chairs for sure!
how can i get templates lime that for tabe legs
I've been considering offering them on my site.
6000$ that’s insane
Absolutely crazy
Amen to that
how come you never use the clamex connecters
I use them all the time. I just don't in my content.
Gesh...I was really hoping to watch you cut out and place the butterfly....then I saw you use the Shaper Origin.....
Not a fan of the Origin?
@@CoffeyCustomBuilds No. I actually love the Shaper Origin; however, I cannot afford one or the required annual support at this time.
It's Jason's mentor! Although, 1m+ vs 27k in same amount of time. What is different?
What?
Is that Walnut?
It is!
You made the mortise so big that the walls are weak. If someone kicked the table leg it would break through the top of the mortise.
Nope.
Could you have not just cut the finished legs out on the CNC?
I absolutely could have.
@@CoffeyCustomBuilds awesome! was just curious and wasn’t sure if that would have been a viable option (I’m an absolute novice lol)
@lewisbradshaw7292 definitely how I do them for production. But that would take away from spirit of the two day build I think.
@@CoffeyCustomBuilds brill 👍 cheers
I hate to make what could be perceived as a negative comment, but I have a hard time believing someone paid $6000 for that table. I'm not saying it's not a quality piece but as someone who's built furniture and cabinets for over 25 years, that just seems far fetched. What am I missing?
I sold this exact table for $6500. The only difference is this one is 6" shorter. This one went for $6000. You're probably missing a market that has lots of money. One of furniture clients are in very affluent areas.
@CoffeyCustomBuilds An affluent market with expendable income isn't the issue. I build similar size and style tables and sell them for $3,600-4,000 depending on wood species. I just realized your business is in California, which explains a lot.
Sorry I see now there was an another question about the same topic I asked. We definitely missed this market (and I don't even hope to find here in Eastern Europe).
@seggremalac Yeah, California is in a whole different reality from the rest of the US and world. There's only a handful of places in the US you can charge that for a table like that.
I've tapped into some pretty affluent neighborhoods here in Minnesota, and I couldn't charge that much just for a table.
@@common-sense-is-dead Insane.
6K hahahah..someone got scammed.
Your mom's the one that bought it
6k lmao nice scam
You're mom seems happy
