DIY weekend build! - Making a small scaffold board coffee table in one day - woodworking project

DIY weekend build!
I would be super grateful if you could like (or dislike) and subscribe ✌🏼
This video shows how I make a one-off small coffee table using a reclaimed 2.4m scaffold board that has been laying around in my workshop for years.
The scaffold board was VERY twisted so the coffee table had to be small in order for it to work!
This is a simple build and can be achieved with basic tools - provided the board is pretty flat, using a thickness planer isn't essential but was in my case. Pro tip - if your table isn't flat then opt for three legs so the table won't wobble!
I am new to being on this side of RUclips so any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Happy to help where I can if you plan on building something like this yourself.
You can purchase this very table here - www.etsy.com/uk/listing/13744...
Thank you for watching!

Thank you!

Very nice job and the table looks so cool. Sometimes you come too close to the blade, watch out for your fingers bro 😎

[@sampennistonPWB]

Thank you!

[@user-bk4zd5um2s]

Good day! Thanks for the detailed video! I dream of equipment like yours. I want to make my own furniture!

[@sampennistonPWB]

This can definitely be made with very cheap or second hand tools! Everyone starts somewhere 😊

Nice work. But 1 day? How quickly does your glue dry?

[@sampennistonPWB]

I left it in the clamps to dry for a few hours by which time it’s fine to work with. The glue will fully cure over the course of 24 hours. I do usually leave things to dry overnight but I wanted to do a ‘one day build’ project 👍🏼

[@big_bad_lynx]

what is the tool you use in 8:27? cheers

[@sampennistonPWB]

It’s a festool belt sander with a sanding frame - it’s great for flattening panels. There is a link in my description if you wanted more info on it. I believe Bosch have something similar too 👍🏼

[@big_bad_lynx]

@@sampennistonPWB thank you!

[@MartinMMeiss-mj6li]

A nice project, but I predict that the legs will eventually fail. Gluing end grain onto side grain is not strong, and wood screws don't hold well in end grain. You could devise a better way to attach the legs.

[@sampennistonPWB]

Totally agree for larger projects however in this application on a small coffee table the legs will be plenty strong enough 👍🏼

[@robb4751]

I just feel so dumb just for watching this video. This project was pretty much a waste of time.

[@sampennistonPWB]

I will never understand why people leave comments like that. Why not say something nice or just say nothing at all. Spread positivity bro not hate, you might just make someone’s day✌🏼
