Yeah it really was cool looking plywood (just on the one side though.) It was just some cheap plywood from Lowe's. It did get me brainstorming something cool I could potentially make with that.
Very nice table! I threw mine on a height adjustable base, but I'd like to add a more elaborate design on it eventually, so this is a great inspiration!
Well done! This is the same style of table as what I am planning on building so I appreciated you explaining the details. Great table, and you're one sub closer to monetization!
I added LED lights to my first iteration (you can see in the pictures at the beginning) but my mom and her sisters never used it so I omitted it on this version. I agree though, it adds to the mood to have LEDs.
it helps to use Sanding Sealer before stain, Helps stops the blotchiness, I might have used a torch to Bring out the grain more before as well, Pine isnt the best looking of woods. ... thiose legs are way to thin, need stiffer base with the way you built the top section, (2) 4X4 Legs up about where Plywood ends are, with a Cross (2) 2x6s Top and Bottom and a cross member in the center between the Sets of Legs. to stiffin that way. But I do hope it is stronger than it looks to me as a wood worker. ... PS I would also add Power to each Cubby for laptops etc, Maybe with USB for phones.
I've never heard of Sanding Sealer before, I'll have to look into that. Thanks! It seems to be pretty sturdy so far, It was a bit of a concern but I did try to design it in such a way that it wouldn't bow or have any weak points but time will tell. I do want to do an even more complex, fully featured version sometime with power outlets and what not, haven't had the inspiration for all that I'd want come to me yet but I think that's a great idea!
You are just like my dad haha. He hates when people don't just stick with the natural wood look. I think it would look great either way, this is just the color that was requested.
The legs are each 1" thick by 5" wide. I'm open to criticism and suggestions, I'm not sure what would be considered a 'standard' or 'minimum' but they seem pretty sturdy.
@LTI I think the concern everyone has is that with the legs only being ~1" thick, they might flex/buckle if your players lean on or put weight on the table. So one thing you could do is attach something like 2×4 (mounted on short-side to create T footprint) or even 3×3-4×4 post to the inside of the 4 legs, to help reinforce them.
You did a really good job. The matching grain and stain color gets complimented very well with the blue felt. Very impressive.
Do you have any tutorials / walkthroughs / recommended videos on how to learn to make the 3d model like you did?
So awesome! Great job.
You made this look effortless.
I love the design. Are you selling the blueprints 😂
were did you get the blue pine ply wood.... that would be hot if not for the stamp.

By assembling the table on the living room floor I’m assuming your single 😂 my wife would have absolutely slaughtered me
Yeah... though it was only in there for about a day before I delivered it.

Great table, any chance we could get the plans somewhere?
In what form? I have the sketchup file but I can try to convert it to something more usable if you'd like.
@@LTI I'd be just happy with the Sketchup file honestly.

@@LTI Hi, thank you for the file. I was wondering if you have a file you can share that I can edit. I appreciate it. Thanks.
Looks great, but how are those legs holding up? Looked a little slim hm..
They are a little over an inch thick, so far so good.
Greate work. I would Add LED lighting. It always add mood :) and should be easy to install.

I probably won't ever understand why people think stained wood looks good. Great build nonetheless.

@@LTI fair, and yeah, I'm turning into more of a grumpy old man by the minute. I'm 35. I can't even guess what my final form shall be.
I'm sub #820 and glad to be on board from the very beginning :D
Surprised that you still have all your fingers😮. Be careful.
Still missing one table… one for garage.

the table is nice. but i think the legs are to thin.

Agreed but an easy fix, put a spine on the back of each one , making a t shape from floor and tie it into table base
