Don't be down on your casters, bro. That's a great table that will likely last you for the rest of your life. Being able to move it and clean the debris out from under the edges of the wood will add years of life to the lower parts and save you a ton of trouble later. I say kudos to you for getting out there and doing it with just your skills and minimal tools.
Thanks for the encouragement. It’s tough building with limited tools. The RUclipsrs with the dedicated shop and tools makes it look easy and effortless but this was not the case.
@@ImMakingIt I know ! I always have to improvise to make some of the things I see these guys making in their shops ! But I , like you, always come out with a great finished product that looks good and serves its purpose. And we didn't have to spend $20,000 n a shop to do it !!
Pro tip: when you're struggling with the glue drying on you rather than using your hands and pouring it over, try a cheap paint tray and small paint roller ✌
Great tip. This process was very stressful.
Man thank you for making this, it was hard to start a project like this without seeing what to do without all of these expensive tools
Glad I could help!
As soon as I saw you start to build the legs out of 2×4 and 2×2 I knew that table was going to be HEAVY lol. No matter though. That thing is going to last for decades sheerly due to how solid its construction is. Props, man
When you clipped over to the table at a new angle @9:35 I was SHOOK at how good the table looked after planing.
Great job on the table! I love the look. I might try this for a counter top and stagger the boards for a different look!
I’m doing this technique kinda for my reloading bench. I need to get a plainer for sure. And I must add you did a wonderful job on that table/work bench
Casters look just fine. Adds some extra character to a really nice table. Plus it makes it super easy to move! Great video
Very cool table! I might give something like this a try for the patio.
Great job. Build things that fulfill their purpose, learn from others who have more experience (usually meaning they’ve made a lot of mistakes), and don’t worry about the rest. Darlington, South Carolina
The casters are genius. This table is awesome, thanks for sharing!
For someone like me who is just getting started building things, this is so helpful to list your full process and materials! Thank you so much!
Absolutely fantastic. 👍🏻 love that the whole family worked together. 😊 The casters we’re a brilliant idea. 🤔👍🏻
Looks beautiful and very functional. Thank you for sharing
Love the sawdust tip! And I really love the table base.
Great Job! I don't think the casters take anything away from the looks and adds so much functionality.
Outstanding! That’s a beautiful piece! Thanks a million for the video.
I built a monster table using all 4x4 for the base and 2x12 for the top. Your video has given me an idea on how to move the table. You could make a sleeve that has the casters on it. That way you lift each side and slip the sleeves under it. It’s extra stuff to keep around but it doesn’t mess with the aesthetic of the table.
Looks very nice !! I like the finishing touch of how it looks !! 😊
absolutely love this! very professional and like an earlier commenter said. You will have it for the rest of your life and its something to show off and be proud of! amazing!
Nice patio, good idea to have it double as a workbench
Your simple easy to follow instructions were great! I'm making it myself too!!! Thx
Thank you for sharing! This turned out to look fantastic!
really lovely table and the way you showed everything very inspiring thanks for sharing
I'm a DIY myself. You did a fantastic job friend!
Beautifully done table and well-presented video! Thank you for sharing your process. As a thought on your casters, it looks like you could attach them on the interior sides of the legs to make them less visible if you wanted to. Brilliant work, regardless!
Great project it came out amazing! Good info in the description too. Keep making videos!
Beautiful job love the casters makes moving so nice
Excellent video. Thank you very much. I like your easy design and assembly without a lot of fancy tools that you may never use again.
Love it! Say what you will about pine, fir, spruce or other soft wood. They age well and then, any dings and scratches that are depressing on almost any other woods only adds character to them.
What I like to do instead of hiding screws is to remove them one by one once the glue is set, drill a larger hole and glue in a dowel of contrasting colour. It looks very much on purpose and has never failed me thus far.
Also : connecting the sander to a vacuum will it speeds up the sanding by a lot.
Awesome table. I just bought 2×4's yesterday.
Great job! Love seeing family projects. Don’t be surprised if you see one of those tables on our patio!
Just promise me it’s better then mine!
You did a great job made it look not to bad where others could have confidence . thankful
Great Job..awesome idea with the casters!
Great job, paint your casters to blend in with the timber. Maybe even put them on the inside, it will be harder to operate them but you won’t see them as easily.cheers Wiz
You did well with the planing. I always seem to plane lines into things I try it with.
Same lol.
Great job bro. Love how the shellac brought out the beauty of the wood.
Looks great. Really appreciate the video. I have a 4x8 steel work bench that is a bear to move...thanks for the idea of the castors. I like the height of my table now, and these will keep the height the same. Happy New Year to you and your family.
Great work! Love the amber color!
That’s a great looking laminated table top!
You have a Dewalt table saw. You got my subscription already. Oh great yard. It's all about the yard.
Great table. Awesome job.👍
Fabulous job. You did a GREAT job
Hello sir, as they say, woodworkers or builders are their worst critics. I think the movability of the table well outweighs the look of the casters and was a good decision. Nice table.
Beautiful table, nice work!
That's is awesome. Job well done.
Makes me want to go make one for my porch.
I like your leg assembly. I thought the built up mortise and tenon joint was pretty clever to be honest.
This was great. I'm planning on doing my kitchen table and bed frames this way. Short on tools and wood right now.
I used the barebones minimum tools to build it so hopefully you won’t need more tools then what I’ve used. I see wood prices finally dropped.
Nice job, thanks for posting!
Great and simple man. Sure there are ways to make it more complicated or intricate. But for about $200 bucks, that's an awesome table people pay $1000s for. Well done!
Beautiful work!
Great table and the casters are genius.
Nice table! Great build and video work I hope it brings you many years of satisfaction.
Great Video, well presented, it turned out awesome, looks absolutely fantastic, well done.
Great job brother! I love the design.
Beautiful!! Very nice and im about to tempy my first build myself.
I think if you install Caster Wheels on the other side, it won't be that much visible BUT OVERALL you did a marvelous job!!!
Wow. Great build. Fun to watch.
So cool! Great video and really helpful. Thanks so much! Nice job. :)
Awesome table!!!
Great build!
great job, i was amazed through out
VERY NICE! CASTERS LOOK GOOD.
Nice work, l made a work bench last year. The glue process is actually quite stressful and a planer and belt sander really helped to finish.
You’re right about the glue process. Off camera I was so frustrated that I rubbed the glue on with my hands and it took about a minute to complete the glue up. Much quicker then a brush but not even coverage
Thanks for the info… just subscribed and looking forward to more
Good looking table!
Super nice work , great video .
Good vid!
And excellent table!!!
Thanks!
That is a WORK OF ART....
BEAUTIFUL
Not to bad. Love the casters.
Awesome, thanks for sharing.
Nice finish on it
Great job young fella, to create & build is an art 🍁 72+ wood worker / carverr hobbyist.
It's beautiful, well done sir!
Fantastic job!
dude, that is kick ass! looks really good.

This man knows what he is doing...
I have been in the Furniture Refinishing Business for many years... and it kills me when someone doesn't use TACK CLOTH to wipe it down between EACH Sanding...
This video is awesome- simple and to the point, and the table rules- I love how the shellac brought out the different shades/patterns in the wood.. Thank you for sharing- subbed!
Great job!
Very nice table. I'll try to make
Great Job!
Nice job! I use the same method filling holes, nicks, and cracks with the sawdust and glue mixture too. It makes for a good color match. A friend told me about Durhams Rock Hard Water Putty. I’ve used it on occasion and I’m happy with the results. It’s inexpensive too. Give it a try, I think you’ll like it.
I’ll give the Water Putty a try on wood projects that requires painting.
I like some of what you did. The way the base is built gives ya plenty of "toe space" and it can be used as a pic Nik table as well as a work bench. The casters are nice and The shellac looks good (I wouldn't have thought of that.
Very Very Nice. Thanks for sharing.
The casters don’t look bad at all! Yea they don’t match or what not but the table shadows that! You did a awesome job!
Good job bud, turned out great!
Great build bro .
Looks great, you can buy furniture sliders that fit under each leg which would be a lot better than the casters.
awesome build
Cool project!
I like it ….. I’m building me one this weekend ….. great job man .👏🏼👏🏼👍🏻👍🏻
Wood should be cheaper now. Have fun making it.
That's a cool table , great job bro!
Very nice table practical good job indeed
Thank you for the video. Great job!!
I love how "not so confident" you sounded in the beginning and then BOOM! You made one of the best home made tables I've ever seen. Great work. I look forward to more crafts. Will definitely share your page and get more to subscribe. Great stuff man.
Thanks for the encouraging words. These all started out as a documentary for my kids to see when they’re older. It’s been hard to make anything these days because of inflation. Thanks for sharing my video! Too cool!
@@ImMakingIt Yeah inflation is hella crazy right now... can thank Biden for that :D
lol He is just trying to formulate his sentences to convey the message he wants to send. Not all intelligent people can bring their thoughts into speech as well as they would like to. He had a plan in his head and knew how he wanted to execute it.
Very nice work !! Awesome idea.
Great job!!
I think the casters add a real nice contrast to the colors of the wood! Like it was meant to be. To me any black metal adds a nice touch
Wow this was great ! and the casters were a good idea
As the wood shrinks, the screws/lags would be nice to have access to be able to tighten them up.
