- Power carving an end table from a single piece of wood. I have used some electric carving tools before. But this was my first time using a chainsaw carving disc, and actually my first time using a chainsaw too! I started with a big chunk of english walnut and shaped it down to an end table for our new house. As always, SUBSCRIBE for more videos and let me know what you think of this.

Turkey. I really appreciate your honesty regarding money, sponsors etc. A lot of people beat around the bush saying they need likes to know you've enjoyed, but you're honest in saying it's to appease sponsors.
I like that in a creator, the fact that you're honest with your audience.
love the table, really good job with the bow ties.
addressing the cracks question, my opinion would be to fill them with a super clear epoxy that way you bet the bonding from the epoxy and a clear view of the cracks (kind of best of both worlds)
Keep up the amazing work you are doing.
Yes, fill them. If something gets spilled…yuck!
Turkey! I just wanted to say that I love how transparent you are about sponsorship and affiliate links. It’s refreshing. I’ve seen a lot of creators that try to avoid the topic of making money from content. So, thank you for your honesty. It’s appreciated.
Turkey: I'd prefer the crack to be filled with epoxy, it's not only much easier to maintain (from any liquid spill or dust that will eventually start accumulating) but it will also make the piece stronger and in case there is an accidental hit or drop wouldn't break down.
I agree.
I like the rustic look with the cracks but would probably like the epoxy too.
Exactly. Even if you were completely safe and never spilled liquid on it, you'll never get the dust build up out of there.
I agree
Agreed
Turkey. The cracks add character! However, I wouldn’t be adverse to see the effect of an epoxy fill and the outcome...maybe in just the larger cracks.
I would have epoxied them, just to make sure nothing falls off.
With the high moisture content still present, the wood probably will still shrink and the epoxy would loosen or separate.... perhaps if a year goes by first it could be done.
Good call!
Loved the cracks under the table, they add a lot of character. However I would have liked to see the top of the table be filled in with epoxy. Love the videos btw, keep up the great work!
Turkey.. I really liked that you didn't fill the cracks with epoxy.. I do feel it would be spectacular with a tiffany lamp on top of it with the wire running through the hole... all the best Cam
After watching the video advert i was still skeptical. But when i finally downloaded the plans ruclips.net/user/postUgkxZF0EMnrujZvqHhGkxiz559uIABJWR9TG i was very impressed. The whole plan was just as you said in the video. Thank you very much. I now have a large and valuable collection for my woodworks. This is great!
turkey, i am in LOVE with the cracks and the natural look of this piece. i tend to make things too symmetrical so i love how organic this piece looks
Hey Cam, those chain saw carving disks are the worst, most dangerous power carvers ever made, I'd stay away from them, I've seen them fly apart and do major damage to skin. Use the carbide carvers, much safer.
I’m in
@@BlacktailStudio btw i always watch all the way to the end every time lol. The shop is lookin good too, man. 👍
@Blacktail Studio stumpy nubs had a video sharing his injury with one of these disks around the time you posted this video. I'm glad I haven't seen more from this. Stay safe, homie.
Turkey! I love the stuff you do. Your videos are so well made and edited. Just curious if you're still power carving and what tools you've found to work the best.
Turkey. One of the guys from that renovation show with Ty Pennington chopped off two fingers with a chainsaw disc on a job site. They made him a host on a game show for a while, but I don’t know what all happened. Ed Sanders was the carpenter’s name
Turkey love this piece it’s got real life about it. The only thing I would say is that epoxy stops dust and dirt gathering in the cracks. I have learned this from clean freaks.
Cheers John.
I am from Canada and love working with pine, I mainly make mirrors or cat frames. I stain and wax only, making them so slippery they're hard to hold. I enjoy your blog and your tables I said to my wife omg! that's what I've wanted to do for some time. OH BOY, THE SMELL OF WOOD! How addicting I'll have to come and see you in action to see if that's what I can do the same. Great work!
I really enjoy your commentary. You are an excellent craftsman . I don't do well in that arena but remember seenig my grampa do woodworking projects in his basement. Watching you work brings back memories.
Turkey! I love how abstract this project was. It’s nice to see someone embracing this type of design and hopefully, in turn, making it more mainstream.
Turkey - Keep doing what you’re doing. Trying out new things is what makes people great within their own trade. Whether someone likes epoxy or not, that’s their own opinion. You are an artist working with wood 👍🏻
Turkey is so cute! Cool little table. I think the cracks really work here. I'd just put a glass top on it to keep dust, crumbs, etc., from accumulating in the cracks.
Turkey: I'm not crazy about the cracks. I'm new to your page but I've been spending hours watching you material. Please keep it up. With that hole in the center, did you consider a lamp base. Looks really cool.
Turkey, I’m not a wood worker but wish I were. Love watching your videos and seeing your unique and beautiful projects. This one did not disappoint.
Turkey, its a nice looking table, but I feel like it could be a great lamp if you add cord trough the hole and some light on the top.
I never thought of that.. but agreed! It's got a nice shelf area for books etc
Similar to the brass wand light in the desk. I agree a light would add to it.
Turkey! Pro crack for sure!!! Love the piece!!!! And nice touch on the bow-ties on the top. Agree that the bottom ones should've had a darker shade of brown or black!!!
Turkey. Great work as always. Glad to hear that kutzall makes great tools and seem to be great people too. I will be picking up a few bits for my dremel. Also really digging the planning sled you used. Great work as always!
That was beautiful! I’ve never made a table well, but watching you is so inspiring! I want to make something as amazing as you do! Watching you work and hearing how much you care about every aspect of your work is inspiring.
Turkey, embrace the natural beauty. It is sincere, literally from the Latin “without wax” or resin in your case.
Turkey! What a cutie! I like the natural cracks in this piece. The bow ties are a nice accent too, even tho they are structurally needed. The finish and color turned out nicely, I was skeptical at first.
Dude. I have started stocking my new man cave workshop with wood working tools so I can start making items from logs. I’m finding your videos so so so helpful. Keep the videos rolling man. Love it
Kutzall are incredible. I bought their hand files and it’s literally faster to shape a complex blade handle than my grinder, and less of a PitA than sanding drum setups for hogging material. 10/10 surreal products
Turkey: Hi I am a woodworker beginner from New Zealand. I started watching your videos around 3 pm today and it is now 8 pm. I just have to say they all are fantastic I especially like the desk you made for your wife. I have liked and subscribed to your channel and look forward to more videos. Thank you for explaining all the methods you use in all your projects.
Turkey! Turkey was the name of my doggy when I was 8! I think the natural form and cracks are what make wood special. Walnut, whether black or English, is the best, hands down. Doing what makes you feel alive, making art, creating, is the reason we’re here.
Turkey. Love the aluminum extrusion router setup. Anti-crack!
Turkey: wood is a natural material with cracks and imperfections. I say embrace them whenever possible. Beautiful work
Turkey. Love the table. Have you ever used super glue inside the cracks? I could go either way. Filling or not. Lovely finish!
I would like to chat sometime about figured maple slabs, stumps and pcs. In my yard. Lcm. of GWW. Cheers!
I have, works great!
Turkey: I didn't like this piece at first because I didn't know where u were going with it. Now, I think its absolutely beautiful. I love the cracks, the checking, the holes, and other "flaws" in this piece. I also think the bow-ties actually enhances the piece adding more character regardless of their color and lack of matching. Sure, you could've added epoxy but in this situation epoxy I feel would've hindered its appearance. Its all wood and it needed to stay all wood.
I'm glad you didn't fill the cracks. It's a good reminder where this piece started from and sort of preserves its origins
Turkey, I find your works wonderfully inspiring, Thank you so much. This piece makes me feel it is the very first table ever created, like curated since 12,500 BCE. "Adam's Table"
Turkey: As I've said before, really like you're videos. For this, what I like best is your go for it attitude, but with tips and 'watch out for's' along the way. You don't put on airs, you don't say you're a know-it-all, which is really nice. Keep it up!
I definitely can’t fake it!
Turkey: love this little table. Excellent video presentation. I’ve watched more than a few of your videos on slab tables and I really appreciate the way you present the material. Keep up the good work and here’s to your continued success. Agreed with some other commenters. I like filled cracks better. But, I can appreciate leaving them unfilled and being different.
Was just a casual watcher until recently, but decided to start going back to watch your evolution. Truly inspired. Thank you very much for being so transparent and meticulous. Your step by step presentation and willingness to share your knowledge via your content and workshops/lessons is invaluable for some one aspiring to get into woodworking.. can’t thank you enough.
Best employee, no sick days, no vacation days, never talks back, never asks for a raise, always gets the job done.
And no lifting weight impediment.
My cat definitely talks back..
Turkey: I think filling the cracks with epoxy would look better. For this project, I think a contrasting epoxy color would be striking and beautiful. Like an opaque white.
A shimmering bright blue would look good.
Turkey: looks beautiful as is but might look cool with some molten brass or an amber epoxy...
Ooooo
I hadn't thought of that, but in the top with all those cracks...I bet the brass would be amazing...👍👍👍👍
I love it!
That would be beautifull. Maybe a brass epoxy? Would be reminiscent of kintsugi
Damn molten brass would be beautiful in this application!
Epic
The top cracks would look good filled, rest of them left unfilled. Great job, wonderful video.
Turkey
The gruesome chainsaw disc pictures were from James Hamilton from Stumpy Nubs Woodworking. Immediately thought of it when you showed the disc. It's been over a year and his hand is still not ok. I believe he only uses saburrtooth discs now. They look a lot like the kutzall tools so probably similar. Probably a tip you already know but I put my finish in those cheap ketchup/mustard squirt bottles, they make it easy to distribute and squirt in those small cracks.
Same thing came to my mind.
Ditto! JH's series of videos on the accident and recovery are very eye opening. The chainsaw grinder wheels shouldn't be used.
Yep! like minds! James Hamilton got injured really bad and I was telling a friend, get the Kutzall!
Yep! Same here. I got chills when I seen that cutter! I was clinched the whole time.
Thanks guys! Made me nervous
Just recently started watching your channel, I have subscribed, and I am definitely pro-crack. The way you ensure cracked wood stays together with your bowties, to me, is very impressive. Most of what you make is out of my price range but watching you build the various pieces for your clients and the process you go through to give them a quality product I admire. Keep doing what you obviously love and putting out these videos!
Turkey. Definitely do more pieces like this!! My favorite project from you so far :)
Oh awesome! Most people didn’t seem to like it as much
Turkey, Your question is a tough one. I would love to have seen the cracks in the top filled, but I love the raw wood look of the "pedestal" part of the piece. It really works both ways for this piece.
Turkey, in this abstract carved piece, the cracks are an inherent part of the look. In a more structured piece, you might want to go for a more worked appearance. I actually thought you were carving a whale, with it's fluke becoming the table-top. Lovely piece of walnut, lovely finish.
Turkey!!
Definitely pro crack on a piece like this, it looks amazing. Truly incredible works of art that you create, and the educational aspect of your videos is certainly a reason that keeps me coming back. I've learned so much from your channel and always find new tips and tricks from you even by rewatching your uploads. Keep doing what you're doing bud.
Turkey.I love the cracks its part of the wood they tell a story, I love the piece buddy great job.
Thanks man!
Turkey!
My husband got Mr hooked on your videos. I know nothing about woodworking, but I just love watching your pieces come to life! You are a true craftsman!
Bologna: the humor you inject with the trolling responses is rather passive and it’s awesome! Nothing over the top, but still a statement to their somewhat rude or incorrect posts!
The totality of this channel is amazing! The first watched and I subscribed. It’s not fair use the phrase “you’re worth my subscription” as it implies I’m somehow special and you should be honored I subscribed. It’s a mutualistic act: you make content and we subscribe and watch. It’s not for nothing as it takes you time to make the content and we watch.
Salami... I agree, it's like a little extra something we get at the end.
Turkey, honestly I don’t like the bow ties, and I’d rather the cracks were filled with a clear or dark epoxy. But that’s me, and it’s no more or less valid a preference than yours so you be you 👍🏻
Steve Summers, a machinist, got a lift like yours for the shop, they're handy. Save your back, you'll need it.
Turkey. I love that you left it alone. I am talking from a visual artist point of view. The other comments are true for the long run of this piece but I love the cracks and the natural aspect to it. You do what you do so well.
Turkey: I think I would have preferred to see the cracks filled with epoxy. If the one section of the top broke that easily, I would think other areas might break off, particularly since the stump still had some drying to do. Other reasons would be spills, or something getting into the cracks that you couldn't get out. I just think something like the black epoxy would make a much cleaner look while still showing the cracks and establishing the wood. Great piece though!
Very nice, you did well.
Thanks!
TURKEY!
@@BlacktailStudio turkey, I think. Couldn’t get through it. Not sure how the captions get created for cc but it’s the first time I’ve seen it this off. Im hard of hearing so I always have them on. Not sue if everyone sees what I do. If I’d doesn’t look weird to you, let me know and I can send you the screen recording from my phone. I thought it was another video it was captioning. I just watched the burnt table this morning and I think it was fine.
Turkey. Brill vid mate 👍
@@ChrisAChandler Same here Chris. I rely on the captions as well.
Turkey and dressing is my favorite Thanksgiving meal!
I love the beauty you've revealed from what would have gone to the burn pile. The overall theme is that there's redeeming qualities in everyone and everything!
Turkey , amazing how you turned that trunk into a table, I do like the dark bow ties.
Also, you're really killing it with your monetization strategies. Your honesty about it made be subscribe.
Oh awesome!
Turkey, Seriously beautiful piece! Personal preference only but I think a jet black epoxy fill would've REALLY made the Dark/Light wood grains SNAP! Regardless it's a killer piece, Kutzall are now on my purchase list. I have a chainsaw grinder carving blade and it scares the crap outta me... but that's a good thing I guess right. Keep up that amazing content brother.
That natural hole through the center would be perfect for hiding a lamp cord!
That’s the plan!
Was thinking the same!
Exactly, LED light strip, if you fill the cracks with epoxy the light coming from the center would shine thru some of them it would be an interesting effect.
That is an awesome suggestion!
Turkey... awesome name!! I used to work in the Log Cabin industry here in the UK. Wood is a natural product we told all our buyers.. if you don't like the natural properties of wood, buy something metal.. I love shakes, cracks, knots, grain, the smell of natural wood.. you keep making these videos Cam, we'll all keep watching and liking!!👍👍😼
Turkey, I don't like your design - but - I guess it is personal taste - however I like your video how you reached the final product. Well done. 👍🏽
Turkey. Just found your channel. I'm gonna wind up watching quite a few vids this evening.
That other RUclipsr was Stumpy Nubs (4:21). Almost lived up to the name.
Turkey: I like the cracks but my wife doesn’t: they collect dust.
And that if you are lucky... it can also be dead bugs, or bits of food... and then, mold etc
Turkey- i like the cracks but i also like to see them filled with color, black is always good but for one like this i could see a deep red looking really cool.
Turkey, I would love to see you do a table or carving with LED lights in the epoxy
Oh ya!
Turkey:The safest way to use a chainsaw disc is to not use a chainsaw disc. Too many people have lost too many body parts to even consider using one.
Fair?
@@BlacktailStudio Get the turbo planer from arbotech for that. Look at what happened to stumpy nubs with the chainsaw disc!!!!
(turkey)
I know for sure I'd put a chainsaw through my knee in a heart beat. But I do admire those who. Know what they are doing.
@@MoYvStarkey chainsaw trousers will stop you attempting knee surgery with a chainsaw.
Turkey. Stubby Nubs had a serious hand injury with the chain saw carving blade. Be careful out there.
I’m glad I didn’t see his channel before I started this project
Turkey.
Great job Cam, I love the bow tie and the way you left mother nature alone leaving the cracks
Turkey.
Oregon **decriminalizes cocaine**
Cam “Let me know if you guys like crack”
Love the table too btw
Very timely. Made me and the wife chuckle pretty good
Turkey: I’d prefer without cracks but that’s just me and knowing how amazing your epoxy work looks. Are there any cons in leaving the cracks such as stability of the piece? Is it more prone to breakage or wood movement? As always keep up the amazing work!
I always prefer a natural design and look - however, with this project, epoxy and dark [almost ebony] bow ties would better enhance the overall presentation.
The cracks are presenting the real life of the wood! Let them be as it gives character to your carving. The bow ties look marvellous
Excuse me while I genuinely enjoy all your videos Cam! Even dating way back lol thankful to have come upon your channel randomly. Don’t know a thing about woodwork but throughly enjoy your work and would maybe one day love to try my efforts at a cool project.
What a great job. Cam makes his videos interesting, instructional and fun to watch. He also does fantastic wood working. Well done all around.
Turkey: I'm pro-crack unless cracks develop after I've finished carving a burl to make a bowl. Much to learn Thank you for alerting people to the dangers of the Lancelot. I had a full suit of PPE, and still ended up with stitches across the tops of three fingers. I did not see a safety guard on your grinder with the Lancelot. Why? Or why not?
Can you please recommend some very warm cut-proof work gloves that allow you to use an angle grinder or mini-grinder? Love your work. And I use Kutzall discs and 1/8" burs. Love them
I’ve liked the firm grip crew chief ones lately
Turkey, I think my preference may have been to fill the cracks with epoxy and use your epoxy ninja skills to aid in shaping the table. That being said; holy moly the colors, graining, and contrasts you brought out of that wood was incredible.
Turkey, would you entertain a round, clear glass top to increase the surface size of this table or do you prefer the wood piece only?
“ Turkey”: Clear epoxy resin for the cracks and holes. Add colors as you wish.
#Turkey
The table Looks weak and fragile because of those cracks😞
It’s sturdy! But it might look fragile
Disagree.
@@BlacktailStudio you r the expert 🙇🏻♂️
Turkey I like using the natural look of the wood good job
Turkey, could you slide a cup across the table uninhibited
Of so I say the cracks are dope
Turkey. Whats the balance, which is most profitable - the wood job that you do, or the youtube income?
Probably a longer conversation
Turkey. Others have mentioned it here but it bears repeating: those chainsaw discs will end your career.
Possibly!
Assalamualaikum turkey 🤝🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩
Turkey ... Pro - crack ... but I have to say ... I like the lighter coloured bow-tie ... I like its incongruity on this piece. Nice work Cam.
Get that chainsaw cutting disc away that thing will mangle ur hand
😬
Turkey - hey, if your technique works and you still have ten fingers and ten toes, there's nothing wrong with it, edit for Turkey :P
Turkey: anti-crack for me for anything I would buy myself, but I understand why people like them
To each there own!
Turkey! I love that you didn’t fill the whole thing with epoxy. I enjoyed this departure.
Who’s turkey?
Turkey! Say "No" to crack. Just makes me feel that another chunk might fall off.
Turkey - please don't use a chainsaw disk on an angle grinder.
Ok!
My dad was a master chainsaw sculptor back in the 80's. He was a lawnmower repair technician by trade, so he was always around chainsaws. At tech conferences, they would hold carving competitions. He won many, being the champ 5 years in a row. The last one he did, it was a timed competition. They gave the participant a piece of a log, a selection of chainsaws (Weedeater brand at the time), and everyone had to carve the same thing. The item was a cowboy boot. He literally took his boot off and made an exact replica of it. Even down to the pull straps. It looked so real.
Turkey!!! Love the name. The cracks are what make the table so organic. Leave the cracks
Turkey! Love the cracks and the contrasting bow ties. Celebrate the natural details of wood whenever you can. I really enjoy your blog, banter and projects.
Turkey as in Turkish Walnut is very beautiful. Your carving videos have got me thinking about dabbling in it myself, especially since as a turner, I'm limited by the swing and bed length of my lathe. I would definitely enjoy more carving videos.
Turkey... I like the piece , the cracks, thw rounded bow ties, and the craftsmanship. Thank you Buffalo Bruce
Turkey it’s funny I watch a lot of video’s and have saw people using a grinder didn’t know their was an actual disc made for carving. I had just made a new coffee table and just used a sanding disc supper dusty I’ll def check it out though thanks. Table looks great very natural with the cracks.
Turkey! I would almost always say that I’m anti-crack, but this project changed my mind! The organic, hand-made look of the piece would, I think, lose something from having the cracks filled as they add a beautiful, “untouched” feel to it. Really nice project, thanks for the video!
Turkey. What a cat. I like the table because the wood is so beautiful. Your bowties make it stand out. It is a piece that think needs other pieces to match what is going on. Great job on a learning curve for tools you've never used.
Turkey: Got my first angle grinder and discs this week. Looking forward to trying some carving. Thanks for the inspiration ⚒😁
