  • From Log to Table, we built a Nakashima inspired Conoid Live-edge table from a Silver Maple Burl. As a woodworker and furniture maker this was a bucket list project.

    I feel like I just went to the spa. The gentle music, the smell of sawdust in the air, the shissh of the handplane. And the bonus addition of seeing a talented woodworker make and admit a mistake (oh I am a Grandmaster at that part) was the icing on the cake. Beautiful slab, artfully filmed and presented, and wonderful skills. Thank you for the video.

    Thank you for including the screw up, we all know it happens and it demonstrates honesty. Nice work hombre.

    My first real “fine” woodworking was a class to make a Nakashima replica conoid chair. After this video, I’m thinking of making 5 more and a table to put them around.

    Girlfriend asked "what are you watching?" to which I replied "willian walker wood working video; the Bob Ross of wood working". Struck me on the fly as I said it, but extremely accurate. Love your videos!

    I'm a hobby woodturner and furniture maker. I've just finished a dining table and spent today making the components for a coffee table so this video is right up my street. However, it has also shown me I have a long way to go to be considered competent. I have the basis though as I'm "nuts" about beautiful wood.

    I'm not sure what it is about the style of your videos, they are absolutely mesmerizing. Fabulous work! I hope you keep it up to inspire the rest of us, like myself, lowly garage wannabes. (not actually that bad but just too much work in the way!)
    Also a HUGE Grizzly fan! Thanks again. Pat

    Great craftmanship and a spectacular piece of wood. Your client has a beautiful table. OBTW..I have never made anything without mistakes. I have been woodworking for a long time. My goal is to get the number down to one or two. To me, it's not about not making mistakes, it about how you deal with them. I admire Sam Maloof and took great encouragment when I found a small booboo on a piece of his in the Renwick Gallery. It was on the underside and not visible. I am sure the other people in the gallery were surprised to see me on the floor inspecting the bottom of piece. Flawless in every other aspect. But strangely that little booboo connected me to him. Not bad..

    Thnx for showing the mistake. I live close to nakashimas shop and he influenced my work and I hadn't realized it until I was an adult. I saw a chair in the Philadelphia museum of art and it dawned on me his importance. His work had help mold me in an unconcious way and I'm glad his inspiration drove you to create such a beautiful piece.

    Great piece of wood! I have a huge slab of tiger maple that resembles that piece but thicker. I am down to the finish, although I am not sure I want to use Rubio Monocoat on it. I want to really pop the figure of the tiger, so have to attack that first. Great video. The legs and base are beautifully. Yup..always brand your pieces.

    I think this is my favorite table leg joinery I've seen. When you cut the one leg wrong, I audibly groaned - it hurt to watch, because I've been there before. (Just on a lesser level!) That wood is spectacular, and the table was worthy of it. Really nice work!
