I was just thinking a similar thing, a bright and novel idea would be to toss the files for the entire build onto an SD card and build a small compartment in the underside of one of the slabs to store it in for the client. I also realize this is a year old but i had yet to of seen this one.
I work shipping for a custom glass company and the fact you actually brought stuff to protect the glass is amazing. Most people show up with an empty utility trailer...and nothing else. I've told them good luck before I closed the door.
I can't even imagine 😂 My cousin's husband/my neighbor gave me some old glass shelves and just moving them next door I wrapped them in probably 5 blankets, and they're only about 8 inches by maybe 2 feet 😂
As a safety coordinator, your videos tend to give me good ideas. Example, added to the next monthly meeting… making sure your trailer is staged properly before trying to walk into it 😂
I learned that years ago when I went to put my horse in the float without it connected to the car and it did the same thing, now I got a few blocks I put under the ass of it to stop it
Dust masks? Light in mouth while routing. Open your body to poison particulates nothing big here. There are alot of lumber species that are baddddd for the human body Rosewood being a huge one mahagony typically the darker the wood the higher the toxicity of the lumber. Silly Goose its just a mask it will save your life or atleast add a couple years to the end.
Glass Tip. For moving glass safely it's often best to roll the center of the glass pane over the edge of the table when lying it down, also if you have it, add a blanket over the table edge for padding. Doing so gives structural support and keeps the pane from bending and potentially shattering. Great table. Looks absolutely gorgeous.
Jordan deserves a bonus quicker than that. Whislt it is always a team effort, John should step up and treat Jordan and his other half to dinner at a decent nearby restaurant. That's amore fitting "Thank You" for saving this project!
Beautiful table, love the live edge and blue glass. Glass tends to be particularly vulnerable at its edges, even tempered glass. I believe it would be a good idea to add another piece of wood to the ends of the table, or add a 2”X4” block of blue epoxy to both ends, a clear plastic channel. I don’t know what the best solution is. But, that thin glass edge exposed to possibly a hard tap from metal belt buckle or any number of things.. it could be bad.
I've been binging all your videos, this table is by far the most incredible thing I have seen you make. The wood is beyond gorgeous, the river turned out great and I love the idea of using cnc for both the glass and the wood, I love how it breaks down so beautifully and the support you guys built is just phenomenal. Love it!
I needed a pickup truck last year to help with my shop move...so naturally I went just *slightly* overkill, and bought an International 4200 with a 7500 lb crane. I honestly thought the crane would just be a fun "toy" to have, but its proven *extremely* useful, highly recommended, would make your delivery unloading a breeze. The truck is also automatic with regular brakes, so it basically just drives like a really big pickup truck, no CDL required. Cost less than non-project pickup trucks were going for at the time too.
@@littlejackalo5326 In my state it doesn't require a CDL (if the vehicle isnt over CDL weight of course), but does require an extra test and endorsement on your drivers license
I don’t think I’ve held my breath this much insuring a video for a while. Looks great! Also was cool to see Jordan stepping up and getting things done!
Lol, watching this as an actual glass worker, all the butthole puckering was hilarious, and not gonna lie mine was puckered watching you run that router against the glass. Jordan definitely had the right idea, the diameter of your bit running against the curves is what caused those gaps. Also for shop truck, go weird, 1960s Jeep Forward Control. ;)
From Damn it Jordan! To You Did it Jordan! Lot of other RUclips channels make it appear as if everything works by magic, kudos to keeping things as it is.
Next time...lay glass on plywood, scribe, cut to the inner side of lines so you can use the off-cut portions as a guide for the router and get a perfect fit... Just the vibrations of the router and bit could have broken the glass through resonance, many viewers hit a high pucker factor too! Pucker factor is an official 1-10 scale by the way, though usually applied to driving a mower/tractor/etc.. on a side slope...when your cheeks are physically helping you stay in the seat you've gone too high! 😁
I'm a pipe organ builder and it's always make or break on installation. I really enjoy your video's, I started my journey wood working in a rustic furniture shop, river tables huge bars, log cedar beds and milling lumber. I miss it and your video's inspire me to finish my home shop and start doing more agin.
Glass center on a river table is a great idea. Since you now know how to properly rout the rabbet for the glass your next one should be the planned size. It is definitely looks nicer than the epoxy versions, I suspect you will be getting many more orders for glass river tables after this video.
Mainly because he doesn't go for a high gloss on the other builds. You could get a very close look to that, but I agree it does look great, but a lot easier to shatter that glass than some hardcore epoxy. Epoxy also can fade though depending on the UV protection, never a best material only preferences.
I would try and find yourself a glass truck with an A frame on it. I used to drive a glass truck. You could put slabs of just about anything on it. If you move a lot of glass I would also get yourself some suction cup tools for glass. Puts handles right on the glass for you.
As a fellow woodworking. I felt your anxiety. I'm glad it worked out for you. I'm still feeling uptight! Where are the "best fail" videos? I need to relax!! Thanks for a great vid.
John most definitely should get a old long bed pick up truck and paint retro logo on the doors. Very beautiful table. Can't wait to see more videos soon my friends. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friends. Fab On. Weld On. Keep making. Stay squirrely. God bless.
If you are looking for a truck that will fulfill your needs, Ford has multiple sized chassis and engine packages. You could go with a ford-150 all the way up to a Ford 650. Most of the ambulance chassis in America are Ford 350- 450. Great work vehicles. Love the table, excellent design. Congrats. Good luck
Awesome looking table. One of you better (per my tastes.) But, the exposed glass edges at the ends of the table make me a little squeamish. I would like to see some type of support/protection there...
Love the idea of the shop truck, I would suggest a sprinter van though they are amazing for hauling and transporting materials. It isn't as cool or fun as a vintage truck but might be more useful. In the vein of the vintage truck, my first truck was a 1976 Ford F100 Bicentennial special and I think they look awesome restored.
Stunning piece of work ... I was holding my breath every time you went near the glass ... I couldn't have gone near the glass, I'd have been too afraid of it breaking! Maybe next time support the glass by taping lengths of wood to it.
Bought a ‘94 F250 7.3L diesel w/ a long bed a couple years ago. No maintenance thus far. Built an addition to my house hauling everything we needed in the bed. If it’s more of a show truck, then go older. A classic ford from the ‘50s or ‘60s would be SO nice.
Get an extended T1N Sprinter for your work “truck”!! The engines last forever and you can do any and all work on it without any special tools. They also get about 25mpg which is amazing for how big they are. (Suggestion comes from personal experience. I currently am converting my 3rd one into an RV and have done just about every major engine repair all by myself) P.S. make sure it’s a T1N (2002-2006) because after that the engines require specialized Mercedes’ scanners to diagnose and program.
With shipping glass you want to ship it standing up, My dad hauled glass on a semi truck and trailer for many years and that's the only recommended way to ship glass.
for a shop truck, might consider an old (50s) Panel truck. its enclosed for when hauling things in all weather. haul secret projects if needed. plus they look really cool and can tow a trailer if still needed. plus u can do awesome burn outs.
I love when you include driving through the “Burgh” in your videos, especially Sou’ Side! The table looks awesome! For the shop truck, you definitely have to go with some sort of crane, like the ones warehouse companies use for booming drywall or shingles in a roof!
Wow I thought our print shop was stressful! Glass is crazy. We finally got a shop truck, it’s a 95 Ford f800. We love it for the retro look but also the extra storage and it has a lift garage when we pick up apparel out in PA
good wheels are indeed underrated. seen so many of these channels just using a ford raptor somthing similar and struggle alot with moving big slabs and other projects. a flatbed with a hydralic tail lift is well worth it and would allow you deal with heavy producs both easier and safer.
I recommend a stake bed truck with liftgate for a shop truck. You can fork things on and off easily, use the lift gate for picking up table saws and other large sized tools and supplies.
I have these multi sized crates i use to transport delicate tile and glass. They are 2 to 8 feet wide and 3ft to 20ft long. Alot of blanets and foam. In them. When i transport a large piece i have help gentle placing it inside what is basically a coffin and secure the coffin to the floor of my trailer for transport.
Get a 1978 k20 with 350 V8 long bed single cab that thing would be badass haul loads and be fast and sounds cool!! I hope this help and get one with no rust or high mileage
What’s up John I saw you scraping that tyvek tape off. I haven’t tried it but have seen a couple guys blow a heat gun over that tape and it comes off pretty quick. Maybe it could save some time? Love the videos.
just found your videos strolling the youtubes. all i can say is thank you. your Punch today in the face slogan is amazing. and love the work you guys do.
Recommendation for the future glass is stronger vertical for travel. Think of the way glass glazer trucks move glass. But I am glad it didn't break in transit. Looks 👍
Work truck suggestions: a ‘57 Ford F-800, ‘52 Dodge Power Wagon, or a ‘58 Chevy Viking 60. All vintage, badass looking, and relatively simple to work on. Great save, Jordan, and attaboys to all yinz. Table came out awesome.
For your Shop truck, I'd use Factory 5 racing kit to build their 35' Hot Rod pickup. Tons of content in there to build your own vehicle (see Jerry Rigs Everything electric humvee) and you could build the bed flat with whatever tie downs you want. Be the reverse mullet of vehicles, business in the back and party in the front.
Wow, spectacular result. Every time you all moved the glass I got puckered. I must say though it is not as much fun as it used to be - Jordan can really do great work! So not as fun to be able blame everything on him.
Building a 47 dodge 2.5 ton on a freightliner mt35/mt45 chassis with a cummins 4bt for my shop truck right now. Had the same idea as you for wanting a cool old shop truck. Let me know if you want pictures, write ups or us to help you with yours. Thanks for all the great videos. Been a big inspiration for building our woodworking shop.
I saw a video where they trued to inlay wood with molten aluminum. It looked very difficult because of the flash point of wood and the melting point of aluminum. I wonder if a table using glass and aluminum could be made that way. Or how about wood and molten glass?
Beauty build! If you've got a cad file and a CNC that size, why wouldn't you use it? Love my DeWalt palm router too but nothing beats the precision of CNC.
You seem like the type that needs a shop truck that’s way over the edge. I’m not a fan of fords but a 6th gen f250 four door is a beast of a truck and they look sick!!!
This is some entertaining shit! Btw, the video and shoot, editing, and overall production is really good guys! Really reminds me of some History Channel show. Love the music during the glass top move. Classic!
You guys should build an A-Frame so you can transport you Glass on edge...maybe not so much puckering. my favorite work truck is a 69 ford 3/4 ton with a 10' flat bed. Vintage all the way.
Routing against the glass is definitely butt puckering... Not to mention the bit diameter offset will add the gaps you saw. When I built a few of these, I traced the glass edges onto 1/4 MDF, used a jigsaw to cut the line, and used that as my template, which is very similar to how you ended up doing it with your CNC in the end.
Seeing as you are already driving a Ford truck, you simply cannot go wrong with old school Ford trucks. Anything from the 60-80s. Bonus points if you get one with a 300 straight 6.
Wow looks awesome 👏🏻 Jordan TaDaa! John what’s your picks for week 1 ? Football always relaxes me, or maybe it’s the beer 💭 Anyway what’s your picks for week 1?
Buy some pillow top mattresses for putting around the foam if you ever end up doing a bunch of glass top tables. Sandwich between foam, sandwich that between mattresses, and then strap it down.
For anyone who is curious, that's Emerald Art Glass in the South Side of Pittsburgh. I used to ride my bicycle past there years ago when I worked for a family owned printing company not far from there. God I miss my hometown!
RUclips vids like this always blows my mind seeing how ppls selling table tops like this for 15k$ 20k $ 30k $ but at same time working with budget tools like some dewalt hand router or Festool instead using some proper CNC machine that could do all that routing part in 1 go. You would need to sell like 5 table tops like this to buy SCM author m200 5 Axis 3100x1800x25 roouting + drilling working space. But ya great work !
You have a great point. I have just done it like this before we got our CNC. Which, would have been 100% the better solution. We don't have a 5 axis, but we do have a 3 axis and it makes our lives much easier in a lot of ways!
@@lauchlanstill6677 uh I didn't mean it that way I know Dewalt and festool are prob top 4 best brands out there hehe using festool myself I meant budget in a way that he is working with hand tools on such a big tabletop formats(not that is anything wrong with that don't get me wrong) but as it seems he sells it for good price making good money which means he could buy some proper CNC machin that could save him a lot of time + hard work
@@lauchlanstill6677 worked with hand routers in some rare cases still do then I worked with 3 axis NC machin now on 5 axis CNC machin and I personally cannot agree that you have more control with hand tools but then again prob cus I don't have as much skill as someone who use it on daily basis
The best truck you should get is an 80's cab and chassis Chevy, you can usually find them with a dump box, 350 small block or a 454 swap, rip the dump bed off and make your own custom flatbed for it!
An old Ford F5 COE or Chevy 6400 would be super cool, wouldn't be a cheap project to make one streetable at modern speed limits and such though but LT engines can be had pretty cheap. Awesome video!
Cannot believe you guys drove the glass laying down, instead of vertically. I’m amazed it didn’t break, especially since you had straps across it. If you’ve ever seen a glass truck driving around, it’s always got the glass standing up on a rack with cushions. The dangerous forces during driving are mainly vertical, as the bumps and dips in the road make the vehicle bounce vertically. Think of a dry lasagne noodle. If you want to snap it in half, you would flex in the direction of the wide faces, not the edges. The noodle (and glass) is MUCH harder to break if the force is trying to flex in the direction of the edges. Even with the irregular edge, I would have opted for a mountain range of blankets supporting the bottom edge, and firm-but-soft supports on the right and left. Glad it worked for you though!
Delivery and install are my favorite parts of woodworking as well especially when it is custom cabinets and built-ins taking a blank wall and putting your hard work in totally changing the look of a room
You should get a Japanese Kei Truck. Some did a nice video showing how they make amazing work trucks because the beds side panels can come down to leave a flat surface for working on the go.
Sam left, he's working at a new coffee place near him now. I'm hoping he will come back on this channel on the odd occasion for a cameo (I'm thinking they will need his slender frame for the tree house project at Johns new place)
I just love watching a video twice, or should I say start to watch a second time, because the thumbnail and title changed so I think it's a new video. Lol. Awesome work none the less. And yes I know you're not the only one that changes the thumbnail/title after initial posting. Just giving a hard time
Great work. Save that file for when that glass needs to be re-cut. Trust me!
Gotta charge triple for replacement glass.
I was just thinking a similar thing, a bright and novel idea would be to toss the files for the entire build onto an SD card and build a small compartment in the underside of one of the slabs to store it in for the client. I also realize this is a year old but i had yet to of seen this one.
I feel like Jordan deserved more credit than he got! He nailed it!
Jordan, with a huge save at the end! Huge man, cheer's!
Jordan really stepped up and impressed in this video. He’s really becoming quite adept at the cnc
Jordan deserves more credit. He cleaned up your mess and saved the day.
I work shipping for a custom glass company and the fact you actually brought stuff to protect the glass is amazing. Most people show up with an empty utility trailer...and nothing else. I've told them good luck before I closed the door.
With how much that glass work probably costs? I can't imagine not dropping $60 in reusable foam to protect it.
I can't even imagine 😂
My cousin's husband/my neighbor gave me some old glass shelves and just moving them next door I wrapped them in probably 5 blankets, and they're only about 8 inches by maybe 2 feet 😂
As a safety coordinator, your videos tend to give me good ideas. Example, added to the next monthly meeting… making sure your trailer is staged properly before trying to walk into it 😂
Me too
I learned that years ago when I went to put my horse in the float without it connected to the car and it did the same thing, now I got a few blocks I put under the ass of it to stop it
This made me giggle. Mostly because the first day I had my new trailer, I did this exact thing and it scared the bajeezus out of me. 🤣
Dust masks? Light in mouth while routing. Open your body to poison particulates nothing big here. There are alot of lumber species that are baddddd for the human body Rosewood being a huge one mahagony typically the darker the wood the higher the toxicity of the lumber. Silly Goose its just a mask it will save your life or atleast add a couple years to the end.
Am I the only one that never loads or unloads a trailer without it hitched up?
Glass Tip. For moving glass safely it's often best to roll the center of the glass pane over the edge of the table when lying it down, also if you have it, add a blanket over the table edge for padding. Doing so gives structural support and keeps the pane from bending and potentially shattering.
Great table. Looks absolutely gorgeous.
Jordan stepping the f*ck UP. Great save on the CNC. I am calling it now, Jordan wins the next build off.
I came here for this....Jordan nailed it!
Jordan deserves a bonus quicker than that. Whislt it is always a team effort, John should step up and treat Jordan and his other half to dinner at a decent nearby restaurant. That's amore fitting "Thank You" for saving this project!

I don’t know what the best solution is. But, that thin glass edge exposed to possibly a hard tap from metal belt buckle or any number of things.. it could be bad.
This I work with glass and tempered is extremely temperamental if you nick the edge.

@@littlejackalo5326 In my state it doesn't require a CDL (if the vehicle isnt over CDL weight of course), but does require an extra test and endorsement on your drivers license

Awesome!! Well done John and crew.
Well done Jordan!!
Routing against the glass is definitely butt puckering... Not to mention the bit diameter offset will add the gaps you saw. When I built a few of these, I traced the glass edges onto 1/4 MDF, used a jigsaw to cut the line, and used that as my template, which is very similar to how you ended up doing it with your CNC in the end.
coolest piece i've seen from you shop yet. well done crew.
Seeing as you are already driving a Ford truck, you simply cannot go wrong with old school Ford trucks. Anything from the 60-80s. Bonus points if you get one with a 300 straight 6.
Wow looks awesome 👏🏻
Jordan TaDaa!
John what’s your picks for week 1 ? Football always relaxes me, or maybe it’s the beer 💭
Anyway what’s your picks for week 1?
WOW, this turned out ABSOLUTELY amazing!!! So glad all that hard work and butt puckering finally paid off!
John again u and the crew crushed it. Inspiring yet again
Get an old ups style van. Use that as the shop truck. Set up install tools and have tons of room for most objects to haul.
Buy some pillow top mattresses for putting around the foam if you ever end up doing a bunch of glass top tables. Sandwich between foam, sandwich that between mattresses, and then strap it down.
For anyone who is curious, that's Emerald Art Glass in the South Side of Pittsburgh. I used to ride my bicycle past there years ago when I worked for a family owned printing company not far from there. God I miss my hometown!
Not a huge fan of river tables - maybe if I saw one in person...but this thing looked amazing! Great job guys.
Haha those roads at the begging looked familiar so I went back and paused on the roads signs! Awesome you’re a Pittsburgh guy.
Good ol square body Chevy with a flatbed for the shop truck. Or a nice late 90s obs ford with the 7.3 🔥
My recommendation for shop truck is a late 80s ford 250 - 350 with a 7.3 diesel engine with a big ole flat bed or work bed on it
RUclips vids like this always blows my mind seeing how ppls selling table tops like this for 15k$ 20k $ 30k $ but at same time working with budget tools like some dewalt hand router or Festool instead using some proper CNC machine that could do all that routing part in 1 go. You would need to sell like 5 table tops like this to buy SCM author m200 5 Axis 3100x1800x25 roouting + drilling working space. But ya great work !
You have a great point. I have just done it like this before we got our CNC. Which, would have been 100% the better solution. We don't have a 5 axis, but we do have a 3 axis and it makes our lives much easier in a lot of ways!
Not sure if I’d say festool or Dewalt are budget tools, they don’t fall into the same category as big machines, also you have more control
@@lauchlanstill6677 uh I didn't mean it that way I know Dewalt and festool are prob top 4 best brands out there hehe using festool myself I meant budget in a way that he is working with hand tools on such a big tabletop formats(not that is anything wrong with that don't get me wrong) but as it seems he sells it for good price making good money which means he could buy some proper CNC machin that could save him a lot of time + hard work
@@lauchlanstill6677 worked with hand routers in some rare cases still do then I worked with 3 axis NC machin now on 5 axis CNC machin and I personally cannot agree that you have more control with hand tools but then again prob cus I don't have as much skill as someone who use it on daily basis
Amazing work, guys! Really well done!!! 😃
Stay safe there with your families! 🖖😊
Glad you made this video so we can all share in the stress with you.
The best truck you should get is an 80's cab and chassis Chevy, you can usually find them with a dump box, 350 small block or a 454 swap, rip the dump bed off and make your own custom flatbed for it!
That was epic!!!! Great work on the video!!! Editing was on point!!!
An old Ford F5 COE or Chevy 6400 would be super cool, wouldn't be a cheap project to make one streetable at modern speed limits and such though but LT engines can be had pretty cheap. Awesome video!
Cannot believe you guys drove the glass laying down, instead of vertically. I’m amazed it didn’t break, especially since you had straps across it. If you’ve ever seen a glass truck driving around, it’s always got the glass standing up on a rack with cushions. The dangerous forces during driving are mainly vertical, as the bumps and dips in the road make the vehicle bounce vertically.
Think of a dry lasagne noodle. If you want to snap it in half, you would flex in the direction of the wide faces, not the edges. The noodle (and glass) is MUCH harder to break if the force is trying to flex in the direction of the edges.
Even with the irregular edge, I would have opted for a mountain range of blankets supporting the bottom edge, and firm-but-soft supports on the right and left. Glad it worked for you though!
You could get an old square body ford lare 70s or bull nose early mid 80s f350 crew cab with a 10ft flat bed and bags on the back to haul woods/logs
Delivery and install are my favorite parts of woodworking as well especially when it is custom cabinets and built-ins taking a blank wall and putting your hard work in totally changing the look of a room
Wow…. Glass…..’ it turned beautiful ♥️
I know there were some older 50s-70s GMC and Fords with 9ft boxes back in the day which would be a sweet shop truck if you can find one!!!!
You should get a Japanese Kei Truck. Some did a nice video showing how they make amazing work trucks because the beds side panels can come down to leave a flat surface for working on the go.
Absolutely fantastic you are the man your crew is the best
Man the shop/business has come a long way since it was just 2 dudes making massive epoxy messes on the floor, congrats guys and keep on
We never see Sam these days. Need more Sam!!
Great looking table. 👍
Right where the hell is Sam damn it.
Sam left, he's working at a new coffee place near him now. I'm hoping he will come back on this channel on the odd occasion for a cameo (I'm thinking they will need his slender frame for the tree house project at Johns new place)
@@outoftheburrough Eh?
I just love watching a video twice, or should I say start to watch a second time, because the thumbnail and title changed so I think it's a new video. Lol. Awesome work none the less.
And yes I know you're not the only one that changes the thumbnail/title after initial posting. Just giving a hard time
Well done, men. Keep up the great work 👍👍
