    This table arrived well packaged and on time. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxn94T8Mu1iMnsLCMNOI9srXSsLkI4JXKW Like another reviewer advised, I pulled everything out and made sure everything was included (everything was!). I built it alone and it took me about an hour. The color is great and for the price the lift part works well. As others have mentioned, it’s not the smoothest opening/closing, but it works. The screws do show, but I plan to order white sticker covers if that bothers us too much. Really happy with this table! UPDATE: it’s been over a year since we got this coffee table and we still love it! It gets HEAVY use as our dining table, foot rest, and school desk. Over time, the opening and closing mechanism has gotten smoother. I added a new photo with the white screw cover stickers. They blend in perfectly and make it look a little cleaner. 100% recommend!!!

    I made an outdoor table from pallets using 2 2x4 as legs and the 1x stock ripped for a herringbone pattern. I made 2 adirondack chairs to go with it and used a heavy duty deck stain. I am going to deck stain the table but I dont see why it wouldnt last 20+ years out here in CA. I made these when my son was 2 and I hope when he is 18 or whatever one day I can tell him the story about the table and chairs he is sitting on. No ikea crap on my outdoor furniture.

    Your video just appeared in my RUclips feed this morning. That table looks like something I can make once I get the tools. I intend to start taking my pension soon and will use some of the tax free cash option to buy some quality tools.
    I have subscribed and will look through your other videos.

    • @rutgerssander
      @rutgerssander  4 года назад

      @@jsmith629 Very functional! With this type of push stick, I can push down on the piece of wood over the full length of the lush stick, instead of only at the very end. This prevents the "climbing" of the wood onto the spinning sawblade. And results, at least for me, in more accurate cuts.

    I think you could use the jigg more when drilling in the work bench? Drill the first row, use the al to locate the second row, then go back and do the same for the third. Now you can use the 2 holes on the top and the bottom, this way you eliminate the risk of measuring wrong between the rowes.

    Muy buen trabajo. Exelente muy organizado tiene todo a la mano cualquier idea con palets se logra con todas esas herramientas. Yo no poseo esas cortadoras de madera ni la lijadora. Tengo el material y puedo hacerlo con mucha paciencia y dedicarle tiempo para hacerlo manual. Me encantó mucho ese trabajo. Pues ya tengo la idea y lo haré.

    Love how the grain pops on that pallet wood! I reckon you could jig this up in two halves and run the track saw along what would end up being the centre line. You'll get the same dead straight lines as you have around the outside without the mitre gaps. Keep up the good work!

    What type of wood glue did you use?
    What length of screws did you use to mount the legs?
    Did you use a hardwood like pine or a softwood?
    What type of coating was that?
    What where the measurements?

    What size of boards did you use to put frame together also if i make the table bigger would i still use a 45° angle cut?

    • @rutgerssander
      @rutgerssander  6 лет назад

      The frame is about 24 x 32 inches, if you'd use bigger boards you can still keep all the angles at 45 degrees.
