A weekend plywood butcher like me can only dream of doing work like this - incredibly skilled craftsmanship producing a stylistically simple but mechanically impressive product. Anyone who has the opportunity to learn from you in person is extremely fortunate.
Your keen eye for detail is more than impressive, mate. The pride you take in your work shines through. You are a true craftsman, with amazing skills 👍
Absolutely gorgeous table. Your attention to detail is fantastic and your craftsmanship is outstanding. Your apprentice is lucky to be learning so much great techniques.
What a lot of work! It came out amazing! Your hand joinery skill continue to impress me. I loved the simple yet clever trick of the tape on the back of your saw when flush cutting the dowels, genius!
Nice job, I just subscribed to your channel. I love your projects.....and I love the fact that there is no arrogance and ego.....just sound work and skill. Well done.
Very useful to mention the time you spent doing a tak or another ! As a beginner, it is very hard to tell if I'm slow or not. Thanks for the video and beautilful job !
I am impressed! Will have to make one for myself soon. I worked a lot with multi-segmented wooden dovetail extension slides when I was restoring antiques. Never occurred to me to incorporate slides in the rails. Genius!
The subjects covered in this woodworking website t.co/z6o0f8z2H4 varies from wood types to tool types and uses. A few other subjects range from the various kinds of wood along with their distinct levels of difficulty when it comes to managing them. If you are still a beginner in wood working, then you will find this book very beneficial.
Very nice, excellent vid! I've been using the wipe on poly for years, it's "fast" and it protects better, although it doesn't compare to the feel of a hand rubbed oil finish!
Love this table, and just getting into make stuff so going after this as a big project in my near future! Thanks for lots of great ideas! Please keep up the great work!!!
Beautiful work Joey. Getting your head around those leg joints with dovetails in two directions would be a feat for me - you make it look easy though. I see you still use your panel saw a lot like a cabinet makers tablesaw - working to the right of the blade but old habits and training die hard I guess. I'd like one but space is the issue for me and I can't part with my other toys. Cheers and thanks for the insight on something I'd likely not try.
I too have been frustrated by how much wood can cup/ warp over night :( So sympathies with you. I like Minwax and also wipe on with a rag rather than a brush. to me it does not leave the brush marks or drips. A very nice Table. I hope you factored in the extra time for the BB ends and the extra flattening. A days is a lot of money in a commercial business.
You Have Made Many Very Nice Projects , But This Table Is By Far ( in my opinion ) The Best , The Cleanest , The Most Beautiful ..Oh Crap ...Just Hit Me In The Head With A Shovel
Great design. I think I will attempt something similar. What did you do to keep the sliding rails from sliding all the way apart when you pull the ends open?
Thanks for your awesome video. I like it very much. Great craftsmanship! I have a question about using Epoxi Glue: Doesn`t seem to be a 2K one. Or if, it should have a big processing time, preventing you are in hurry with assembling the counter framework. From which plant do you buy it? Why don`t you use normal wood glue like Titebond or Titebond-Ultimate for that job?
Joey, thanks for the very instructional video - a beautiful table. It wasnt clear to me how you prevented the table from coming completely apart if it was pulled too far. How did you accomplish that?
Great workmanship Joey. The end result table looks solid. Have you seen the extender tables where the middle section has a hinged middle? The middle section centre line is hinged and the two panels fold up from the outer edge of the table (into a V with apex on longitudinal centre line) and folds under the main table. Then the two end table surfaces push together to fill the gap? No doubt you have. It's a tried and true method of extension where the legs contacting the ground remain fixed. I like your table but my only negative comment is "if I asked my wife and sister to extend the table" I would have to do it. ;-) regardless. great work and keep at it.
You made the sliding dovetail look easier than it actually is, not thru editing but with your ability. I like the oak and cherry combo. Did you notice any blotching with the cherry? Great project, well done, thanks for posting
The small blocks to keep the middle peace in place under the table probably won't get much force applied to them unless you really jam the middle piece in there, but it always worries me if something is impacted and is just held on by inflexible glue like CA or epoxy. They're just too damn brittle sometimes. A dowel or two takes care of the problem. But like I said, unlikely to cause problems with this one.
Joey, I LOVE this piece. I did not see where you added stops to prevent the dovetails from coming apart while trying to add leaves. How did you do that?
So what did the New Zealand new owner end up paying for the table? Here in Switzerland a custom table like that would be about $ 3'500... At the cheapest.
I wanted to build one of these for my new house. And my research has brought me to this video. I love it, great job. However I do not have access or a way to cut this dove tails/ channels. Do you have any suggestions for an Alternative?

What a premium table creation! I salute you sir!

Awesome table. That sliding table saw is so clutch. Being able to joint one edge and then quickly rip it to size seems like such a time saver
Yes its such a multi use tool , far more versatile then a smaller table saw .
Is that his kind of saw not very common in the US ? Here in France, and europe I believe, it is very common in woorworking shops.
@@ericfrisard2060 they have them. But they are not common
Nice job,
I just subscribed to your channel. I love your projects.....and I love the fact that there is no arrogance and ego.....just sound work and skill.
Well done.
Thanks!
Really nice table. Enjoyed the joinery.
As always, very nice work Joey. Very nice.

Really nice job Joey, love the contrast of cherry and oak together and the breadboard ends.
Gorgeous. Great work as always, Joey. 👍

Cool design Joey and a great way to store the extra leaf.
Great looking table and beautiful top.

Superb craftsmanship, Impeccable joinery. I want to like you when i grow up (I'm 39 y.o.)

Cheers , it did take longer than had thought. But super happy with the finish
Great video, great piece.
very nice design for expansion and leaf
Great work! Love how it turned out.
Great job Joey! Great from Holland
Freaking gorgeous! Great work!
You Have Made Many Very Nice Projects , But This Table Is By Far ( in my opinion ) The Best , The Cleanest , The Most Beautiful ..Oh Crap ...Just Hit Me In The Head With A Shovel
This is stunning. Lot of work but worth it!
Really like this...like they say "dont judge a book by its cover" cuz this is a really. Nice table love the sliding dovetail feature! Cheers🍻
Nice editing. Nice work too.
Great design. I think I will attempt something similar. What did you do to keep the sliding rails from sliding all the way apart when you pull the ends open?
A very nice table. What are the dimensions of the rails and the legs? They look like 6 cm to me but could be 8.
Great job master!!!!
Beautiful work
Really nice work
Great Job Joey
Great job sir!

Felicitaciones
Thanks for your awesome video. I like it very much. Great craftsmanship!

good design and good performance
Joey, wouldn't you want to add a stop so the two sections of the table couldn't be fully pulled apart? Love the look of the finished piece very much.
Joey, thanks for the very instructional video - a beautiful table. It wasnt clear to me how you prevented the table from coming completely apart if it was pulled too far. How did you accomplish that?
Exactly
That’s what I was wondering
Yes! It’s an extender!
Great table... Greetings from Germany :)
Trabaja muy bien el man, claro que con ayuda de exelentes herramientas pero de todos modos un berraco.
Beautiful table! Tfs :-)
Very good.
In 500 years antique restoration guy: “We recogneize Joey’s work by the jigsaw marks he left on the joints”
So there’s that 😉
Hahaha that's cool
Hi Joey- what’s your thoughts on using the big domino for the breadboard ends?
Great workmanship Joey. The end result table looks solid. Have you seen the extender tables where the middle section has a hinged middle? The middle section centre line is hinged and the two panels fold up from the outer edge of the table (into a V with apex on longitudinal centre line) and folds under the main table. Then the two end table surfaces push together to fill the gap?
No doubt you have. It's a tried and true method of extension where the legs contacting the ground remain fixed. I like your table but my only negative comment is "if I asked my wife and sister to extend the table" I would have to do it. ;-) regardless. great work and keep at it.
This type of table is called a "Butterfly leaf"
You made the sliding dovetail look easier than it actually is, not thru editing but with your ability. I like the oak and cherry combo. Did you notice any blotching with the cherry? Great project, well done, thanks for posting
Great table! How do you remove the hardened epoxy to ensure it doesnt show up when finishing?
i'll make one of this someday...no matter how long it takes for me to do it!!! lol
Какие размеры стола? В закрытом и открытом положении?
The small blocks to keep the middle peace in place under the table probably won't get much force applied to them unless you really jam the middle piece in there, but it always worries me if something is impacted and is just held on by inflexible glue like CA or epoxy. They're just too damn brittle sometimes. A dowel or two takes care of the problem.
But like I said, unlikely to cause problems with this one.
What is that glorious table saw sled and where to I get one!?
What length were the rails for the dovetails and how long was the table when closed , without centre part of table
Joey, I LOVE this piece. I did not see where you added stops to prevent the dovetails from coming apart while trying to add leaves. How did you do that?
No stopper, the last 150mm or so is actually quite hard to pull out due to the weight kind of jambing the dovetails.
are the legs 4x4 and side rails 4x2?
Essentially yes
Is there any reason you didn't dovetail the rails on the short ends of the table going in to the legs?
So what did the New Zealand new owner end up paying for the table?
Here in Switzerland a custom table like that would be about $ 3'500... At the cheapest.
Yup about that
Hi Joey found this the other day on youtube and thought of you. Ancient Technology of Making Cabinet Furnitures - Impossible Looking Dovetail Joint
Is there anything stopping the two halves of the table from sliding completely apart if pulled too far?
Nothing mechanical but gravity does a really good job of stopping them as they bow down for the last 100mm or so and jamb.
I wanted to build one of these for my new house. And my research has brought me to this video. I love it, great job. However I do not have access or a way to cut this dove tails/ channels. Do you have any suggestions for an Alternative?
You could use heavy duty drawer slides instead
How did you attach the table top to the base?
Can you make video on that mostise bit
So I read the description, perhaps I will maybe will check out your podcast. Maybe 😀
Is there a measured drawing for this piece. It looks fabulous!
Email me through my website and I'll give you the sketchup model
