Keep in mind that wood "putty" made out of sawdust and glue will never stain the same color as the wood surrounding the holes that are patched. Wood glue does not stain at all so the mix will not stain because of the glue mix. Best to get a wood filler that is very close to what ever stain you will be using. Fill the holes first before staining. You can go a little wild here with some of the putty staining the wood around the hole. After all holes are filled touch up with a fine sanding at each filled hole so only the the filler is exposed at the holes with no "over spray" so to speak.
that white oak in the second shot when it's rough is amazing! you did good brent.👌
Great to hear WG! Thanks for watching and all of the aupport
@@BYOTools always my pleasure
Nice job. Can’t beat white oak
Nice work. For biscuits, you gotta glue them in! In the slot specifically 😎
Thanks John and yes I did try to get some glue in those biscuit joints but I’m sure I could have added a little more. Thanks for watching and all the support.
@@BYOTools I use a little flux brush. Get them from the plumbing section of and they do add considerable strength to joints, they're basically floating tennons. Ive built tons of stuff using biscuits, but I've never made a big tabletop or counter. You've inspired me!
That really is a fabulous countertop. Nice one Brett.
Great to hear Emer. Thanks for the continued support and glad you liked it. PS it’s Brent :)
@@BYOTools Me and my typo's again - sorry!!! I knew that - was running out door.
You are gifted! Beautiful work!
Thanks so much for the kind words David and appreciate the support. Hope you subscribed.
I loved the Mariam Makeba song that you played ta the end. Pata Pata!
Looks great Brent.
Great to hear Muir and thanks for the continued support.
That's some good looking wood!
I'm really enjoying your channel Brent! You have a nice, even instructing voice that just makes every project feel..chill
Great to hear and thanks so much for the support. Its Greatly appreciated. Thanks for joining us on the live stream as well :)
Gorgeous countertop!
Great to hear and thanks for watching Kathy. Hope the dogs liked it to haha.
Amazing work.
Great to hear BBB! Thanks for watching.
Not a bad idea to use biscuits at the joints where the draw bolts as well.
Length x width x thickness / 144 gets you board feet as well. Great video
Well done!
Great to hear Mona and thanks so much for watching.
That turned out beautifully, as always! I have some little oak planks that I want to try to make a simple box with but I'm afraid of ruining them. LOL!
Thanks so much for the continued support Heather. Great to hear you liked it and go for it on our project. Luckily wood is forgiving since you can always sand :)
What a beaut! Nice job.
Great to hear Patti and thanks so much for watching ;)
Great work! I wanna make a walnut one for my kitchen
I LOVE that idea and if I ever redo my kitchen that is what I’ll use as well. Thanks for watching and all the support Johnny.
Excellent video! Excellent craftsmanship! Could you please tell me approximately how many man-hours were needed to complete this oak countertop?
Looks great! Thanks for sharing your process!
Great video. S3S means "surfaced 3 sides" though, not "sanded".
Oooooooo Steven I cant believe I didn’t catch that haha. You are correct sir. Thank you for watching and the corrections.
Great video, great advice
Great to hear Sandy and thanks so much for watching. Hope you subscribed :)
@@BYOTools You bet I subbed and rang your bell
Many articles that I am finding recommend not putting plywood under a countertop such as this to allow it to breath. Especially in moisture areas. Why does your scenario have 3/4 ply underneath?
Can you put the wood countertop on top of existing outdated tile countertops? would it work?
How did youndo the sink?
S4S means surfaced 4 sides, not sanded.
Nice!
Great to hear. Thanks for watching!
Hi! Can I know if you're using a rotary clamper? For school purposes, Thank you in advance!
Could you talk a little bit about the end grain butt joints when gluing up? I am hoping to glue up a 14’ long countertop in one shot (workshop is in my house so no need to transport) but will need to use boards that are shorter than the 14’ length. Did you just slap some glue on them and the edge glue ups will hold them in place/make the table strong enough? Also any suggestions for substrate for under countertop? Does it have to be plywood or can it be particleboard or mdf?
dall italia comlimenti bel lavoro
bello sentire e grazie per aver guardato
Can a 2x4 be load bearing?
Beautiful!! Great video! One question. Would it be a difference to have that lower lip screwed after gluing? Thanks
Great video. I'm curious where to look for wood like that? They don't sell it at big box stores like Home Depot, right?
Great to hear and thanks so much for watching. Yes they done sell this at your local HD. Look up lumber stores in your area and hopefully you are able to find something. Not always the case but I would suggest purchasing on line since you will also be spending a lot on shipping as well. Have you done a google search yet?
@@BYOTools no, haven't really started googling. I'm planning on doing some work and I've been curious where to find this type of wood... Other than local lumber places, is there a website you recommend?
I bought a biscuit joiner about a year ago, and was excited to use it, but found it more annoying than useful. Laminating up a countertop like this is honestly easier without them.
It does get a bit tricky in some cases but I sure does help to Align the boards which reduces sanding time. Thanks for watching Stephen and hope you enjoyed the video.
@@BYOTools seriously great work! Didn't mean that to come off as criticism, I started joining boards with the biscuit joiner in the beginning and still use it sometimes!
I think it is a good idea to show how you cut out the hole. Someone wants to put a sink in the hole prolly.
What’s the name of the store?
Great Video! I'm new here and was wondering what working time means? Could anyone answer it for me :)
I’m assuming this is referring to when I was flying the boards together. If so you have a short amount of time to work on getting all of the boards glued up and clamped down before the glue starts drying up on you. It’s the working time of the glue before it drys. Hope that makes sense and thanks for watching. Hope you subscribed.
@@BYOTools appreciate the help!
learned something new, did not know about the counter top fasteners thanks👍🏽
Loved It! That mechanism really seems to do the trick.
I was wondering why you didn't round with a router? Client's preference?
Great to hear Armando and thank you for the continued support. And yes you nail that one. I didn't router the edges because the client preferred them this way.
jon peters is great.
YES he is Robert. Such a great woodworker and person in general.
All and all its came out nice. but that wood is not cheap
Thanks and yes you are correct. not cheap :)
Me parece muy contradictorio, un nivel de mano de obra de primera, en una madera muy fina pero en un lugar de ubicación pésimo, tu trabajo tan hermoso quedó oculto, escondido, para que muy poca gente lo valore, no se como no te defiendes para lucir tu trabajo ante esos conceptos tan opacos de como lucir una hermosa encimera de roble. pero te perdono. buen trabajo muchacho. sigue trabajando duro
Laminated, joined and glued ≠ Solid
Solid as a rock! Haha! Thanks for watching Doug. Appreciate the support.
how much does that weigh?
Probably around 100lbs per slab.
What about exposed plywood around sink, joint wrong look like commercial top from store
Your explanation regarding placement of biscuit joints (away from the top) didnt make any sense. "no indentation" as the wood moves. ???
Big warp on face what happened there
Don’t like that Particular boards I see in in videos
Whats wrong with them in your mind? Thanks for watching.
This would cost a fortune in tools...
We'll its taken me a while to collect all of these tools thats for sure haha. Thanks for watching Marbles and hope you enjoyed the video.
yes 👏 another one beautiful sexy beast nice countertop
Haha!! Yessss it is. Thanks for watching Dg.
Awesome but no
Haha. Thanks for watching.
Oh no bro. Gloves on a TS? Good way to lose some fingers. If you’re making content, show good safety practices for new woodworkers that take everything they see from your videos.
Your they can grow up and do some research and you can mind your business
@@altiar789 huh? “Your they”? Grammar matters.
the seem stinks. sorry. but it does.
The seam between the two slabs? how so? looks great to me. Thanks for watching Robert.
Can a 2x4 be load bearing?
