I must admit. great video. well done.
Outstanding video. Thank you for the inspiration!
TY for the tutorial. My hubby and I made this table yesterday for our patio. Your tutorial was very helpful especially when we weren’t very confident with angles. Thanks again
That's exactly why I made the video! I'm glad you two had the courage to give it a shot and hope it turned out as you hoped.
Great video. Building for Christmas. Did you use the #9 screws in the pocket holes for 4x4
Hey Rob! Building it as we speak! Just about to make the kregg holes! Thanks for posting this!
Thank you for a very informative detailed instructional video !!! Most builders turn up the music and don't give any descriptions of sizes or angel but just assume you should know at the end what they were doing LOL. Thanks again !!!!
You are very welcome! I noticed a lack of detail in other videos I watch too and hoped to fill that gap. Appreciate the feedback!
An accountant's attention to detail! Bravo!
A very transferable skill of mine!
Awesome. Thanks, I was looking for a video on this project. I'm an accountant too, so I need the help! Lol.
I'm glad I was able to help!
Im staining all my pieces before building my table
Great video!
Glad you liked it!
Hello, my friend, the Kreg jig is really easy and fast to connect wooden panels. I don't have this tool, of course, it is not available in our country, so I have to make it myself.
Nice job pimp! Thanks for including all the dimensions and cuts. I might try to make this table too. You have inspired me playboy! I'd eat off of that table anytime. I hope you make more videos, keep up the good work.
Thanks for the kind words and I hope you do give it a try! I want to be as thorough as I can so I am glad you were able to figure out those corner braces. Certainly plan to make more videos as time allows so stay tuned!
Oh yay! I’m a diy accountant too 😂
Welcome to the channel!
Did you make matching benches?
Also, what are those black things on the corners of the table? I like the way that looks.
Hi, how much do you think that you might be able to sell this table for realistically? Thanks so much.
Great job by the way!
It really depends on your area. I built a hall tree (coat rack with a bench) in my area for about $125 and sold for $300 in a couple hours of posting on fb marketplace. It just so happened in my area rustic/farmhouse furniture was in high demand. If you are unsure, I would look at similar tables in your area to get a feel. Best of luck!
How’s this holding up so far?
Hey Josh - It is holding up very well after over 30+ stays in our AirBnB. Since it is quite solid and heavy, it makes it hard to move / beat up from our guests' regular use of it.
@@ronthediyaccountant9341 did you end up using wood glue on anything? I didn’t notice it during the end when you put it together. I currently have all my wood stained and I’m just waiting on the pocket hole jig to start building
@@Cassanoj No, I did not use woodglue on any joints only when attaching the tabletop together. Since my door is too small to fit the table through, I did not glue since I need to be able to take it apart again to remove it from the basement (sometime in the future).
I did, however, find myself needing to add more screws when attaching breadboards to the legs during the tabletop assembly. With the amount I did in the video, it did feel a bit loose.
@@ronthediyaccountant9341 hey one final question how exactly did you attach the top to the bottom. I don’t see the placement of your picked holes for that
@@Cassanoj so i used the lag screw right in the middle of the two legs (through the 4x4 to the table top. You can add one to the middle beam too.
Hey man, good video. Going to make this table. I’m confused about the short to long ends are parallel and long to long end are parallel and long end to long end not parallel. Any explanation as to what that means?
What I meant by parallel was that the angle of each end were the same versus not the same. So you have 4 cuts at 25 3/8" where the ends were all cut at the same angle and two cuts where the ends are opposite each other based on where it gets assembled on the table. This is just how I thought of it. Looking back if you flipped the top piece it would look like the bottom one on the two I said were not parallel. Hope that helps!
@@rontrinh4344 yeah that helps. So basically the non parallel ends are kinda like a trapezoid shape? I even asked some members of a woodworking group and they were a bit confused by the jargon lol
@@booyahhh4642 No worries. Hope yours turns out awesome! The one I built in the video is still holding up amazingly.
how is your table holding up?
Great! It has not developed any wobble and our AirBnB guests love it. From use I may need to re-finish it eventually with another coat of poly but it has been serving its function well.
Damn, I just looked at the Accent Pieces portion at the bottom. Corner braces. God I'm such an idiot... sorry about that.
what wood is that?
It is whitewood/pine which was the least expensive wood at home depot for this build.
