Well done. You finally had it done . . . had a good laugh when the whole FAM resorted to sand for added weight and my goodness when the entire FAM was lifting the huge and heavy table top. I am sure you guys had a great experience and these are some golden memories to share about your grand table. God bless you lots!
We kept finding we needed a folding table. This is so easy to store. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxStL0QRChBju4aQlnTrRgBZvafFog0KU3 Opening and closing is easy as well. It has a great handle for carrying around the house. Its pretty lightweight and slides around easy. We bought it for our daughter’s first sleepover. Breakfast was a blur - but 12 7-8 year olds fit at the table with room to spare. We used it at thanksgiving and 6 adults fit comfortably on each side plus 2 on either end for a total of 8. Super easy to clean up afterwards as well.
I made a 68-inch White Oak round tabletop late last year. Biggest thing I have made in my shop. Our build processes were very similar, your tabletop looks really nice.
I had to keep watching because you said exactly what I am going through looking for a large enough round table that won't cost me thousands. There are also not a lot of options with round tables for what I am looking for. So I thought, let me see if I can make one. I watched from beginning to end and the table looks fantastic. However, your DIY made me realize someone like me could not get this done. I do not have a large workshop, or all of those tools, or the knowledge, or the time. to make this project happen. It would cost me thousands just to get all of the materials LOL. It would also take me a few years because I couldn't work on it everyday. Still, it was cool to see how you did it.
That was actually pretty clever, I was surprised to see first base because you showed second one on beginning of video then I was wondering from what second base was made from. It look awesome, simple and modern!
Very impressed. And thank you very much. I have a small dining room and didn't think of getting a round table as a solution. Keep up the good work and keep sharing your ideas with us!
great video, and gorgeous table. Just a point of technicality, boards try and flatten the growth rings so in your video at 2:49 the boards would cup upwards.
Great video as always, but be careful with using mono sound from the lavalier mics. When you listen with headphones it feels really weird hearing the voice track only come from one ear. You should double the mono channel so the voice comes out of both channels.
Hum, that's an interesting point. I have the exact same mic, but have never had this problem. Though I run all my audio through Audacity and I know I have two channels. I guess that would be why.... dunno. Interesting though. I'll have to remember that. 👍😎
Wow that is a great looking table. Who would have that Poplar would look that great. And the price makes this very attainable! Thank you, this wood maybe my next table top!
What a wonderful video! Loved the animated pictures to show clearly how wood cups and the detail in how you made the steel base! Love the fact that a $5000 table can be DITYed (with skill and space and good tools) for $300. Will be watching more of your videos and thanks so much!
Elisha, love your projects and big fan of your modern House (you know that). Just wanted to say that using earphones, the audio is not coming from the right side / right speaker... at first I thought it was me, but all other videos play ok on both sides! Not sure I'm the first one to say that too... 1 minute and forward the audio comes back to both sides!
Always learn so much from you. Beautiful table, but I would have changed the door to open outside. Hope you understand what I mean, in Sweden it’s most common to open our doors that way, windows to. Take care, and be safe! 💗
Love your videos. If you're struggling with your mic, use something low-profile, like the Rode VideoMic Go. Tape it under your shirt using a sandwich of medical tape. Less/No echo or wind. Keep it up girl. You're a badass.
I worked in a union shop in NJ. the finishing department used 10% water with denatured alcohol. to raised the the fuzzy surface on wooden pieces. when the surface flashed dry the sanding started. useful when finishing wooden floors too.
Great job! Since you’re not a fan of how the base looks from a distance, I’d suggest you surround the base layer with wood dowels and give it a fluted dining table look. That would give you the wooden look you were hoping for. I know those fluted style dining tables are quite popular and go for thousands!
Very good job. I think it's funny you say "acrossT". I'm from Houston and man Houstonians say acrosst. It drives my wife bonkers that I say it that way.
Looks great. I'd imagine that there is no real need to drill all though holes though. Just cut the rest from the top using the jigsaw staying to the outside of the router bit cut. Then use the flush cut bit, as you did.
GORGEOUS result and nice pivot! The video mentions 60” diameter and the little photo tile I clicked on said 64”…I’m trying to design one that can seat 6 all the time comfortably (24”W vintage chrome chairs with arms) and maybe squeeze in another small chair or two for bigger gatherings. Our room is 13’ wide if that matters. Thanks for any help!!
Lovely table top. The post is a little boring, but I guess it goes with the more modern look. Those chairs look cool, but I'm not sure how comfortable they'd be. LOL! I always want a lot of padding for my bottom.... but that's just me. Nice work. Hey! Love your mic! I got one of those too. Great work. Enjoyed the video. 🤓💛💙💪
nice build overall and very affordable. For a big table top like that I would recommend using threaded inserts instead and use c channel to prevent wood movement.
Great video! Learned a ton! Quick tip: Self-etching primer really isn't made to go over an existing finish. It's an acid base that's made to bite into raw, unfinished metal (normally steel). For your purpose (like on the original table stand) , try sealer primer, followed by block sanding with 320 grit. It will seal in the old paint and give a nice uniform base for your color coat. Otherwise, great video!!!!
This reminds me of my first desk build. I thought I was going to get away with buying “industrial” table legs… well. Needless to say, I won’t be using that strategy again. I really wish I could say it was a FUN learning experience, but my ego wouldn’t play. I wanted it to turn out so much better than it did. I did learn, sure. But the fun didn’t come until I changed out the legs! 😀
The hole and jig saw solution for rounding the table looks like it took a long tome. That’s a lot of holes. However the end result is fantastic so it was definitely worth the time and effort
Cool video! Your cupping diagram/scene was backwards though the lines your showing will want to straighten out not curve more, the cupping comes from the grain straightening out
You are a very smart, beautiful young lady. Your husband is a lucky man to have you!! Round tables have been around since forever. I have a table in mind but my writing skills are not so great. The table would be like a 3/4 round then flat across the remainder. Can you picturehow that would look? Yours would certainly be unique... Isn't that what we all want? YES..
I have a feeling she does these video edits without headphones. Because if she did she would head the difference in audio going from stereo to mono during the parts where she is using the wireless mic.
Wow! Very impressive! Always good to read the comments from the pros, but actually I am most impressed by the design choices and the clever hacks to get the job done. I love the choice for poplar. First time I see this channel, will certainly watch more. And to see people working with budget tools is refreshing :) I don't know if you guys use something for dust extraction? I find it makes the work (even) more enjoyable.
In hindsight You could have just Drilled through the center screw hole you made to hold the jig then flipped the table over And plug in the same jig And finished the other half of the cut in a circle. Beautiful work though! 👏🏽
It's actually a lot easier to fix a table cupped in one direction than a washboard, that's based on experience. (A lot easier) Tage Frid (and many other masters) suggested orienting boards for best appearance. The alternating growth ring idea was popularized in 20th century industrial arts teaching and I believe is based on a misunderstood technique, sometimes call "rip and flip," where you rip a flatsawn board into strips and rotate them in glue up to make a quartersawn panel that will remain flat.
Hat and ponytail you is maybe best you. It's very nice and refreshing. You're unbelievably adorable either way, and your skills are impressive. Love the video!
the boards would deform the other way; the curved lines would flatten. :) (it could be useful for further projects, that's the only reason I'm saying it. I'm about to build a large round table, and your video is very useful, thank you very much!)
No, not with with the boards she is using. Its way to thick. She would end up burning through too many bits at that deep of a cut. Not to mention it would leave a way rougher finish. I will say that she should have just flipped the table over and used the router on the second side too instead of drilling all those holes and then the jigsaw. I would have just put and x going down the center of the table to align the second side and use the same circle jig to finish it off.
Thanks for the video your table looks great and you have well dressed helpers. I am working on a 54" round table. Were you able to get the table flat enough for a level to set across it or did you just worry about sanding the joints smooth?

Adding sand was a good simple way to solve the wobble problem.
Well done. You finally had it done . . . had a good laugh when the whole FAM resorted to sand for added weight and my goodness when the entire FAM was lifting the huge and heavy table top. I am sure you guys had a great experience and these are some golden memories to share about your grand table. God bless you lots!
This is why I love RUclips Makers. Such a unique and creative solution! Bravo
I like when presenters point out the “fails” and explain why so we can avoid them on our builds. Well done!
Not just a beautiful build but very educational... glad your channel was recommended.

Honestly, that’s the most beautiful table I have ever seen. I have always wanted a large round table.
Ever seen?!? EVER?
This table has been so awesome! The feel is the best part. Thank you babe for all the work you do for us🥰

Agree 💯
Wow that is a great looking table. Who would have that Poplar would look that great.
And the price makes this very attainable!
Thank you, this wood maybe my next table top!
Holy Moly Lemon Cannoli!!! You guys are my freakin Heroes!!!! Way to push through guys!!! Looks FANTASTIC guys. Hoping all is well, Dirty Jersey out!!
Oh, that's a new one for me. I usually say "Holy Moly Guacamole". But I love all the varients.
Wow this turned out absolutely gorgeous! I love your hair 😍 💕
That table is gorgeous thanks for the motivation.
That is one beautiful table, you two did a perfect job on it.
Just gorgeous. This table would look perfect in my dining room. Thank you for your talent, and awesome work momentum.
Nice, reminds me of those repurposed spools folks used to use as picnic tables!
Menudo trabajazo , me ha gustado mucho ver como lo hacíais .Enhorabuena
That material cost blew my mind. I expected the wood for the top alone to be almost double that. Great work.
What a wonderful video! Loved the animated pictures to show clearly how wood cups and the detail in how you made the steel base! Love the fact that a $5000 table can be DITYed (with skill and space and good tools) for $300. Will be watching more of your videos and thanks so much!
I LOVE YOUR HAIR!!!!!
You guys did an amazing job! Love how you included the woodworking info!
Great job Elisha! Thanks for sharing the video with us!👍💖😎JP
Incredible! When I retire, I want to be your apprentice…
At 2:50 the wood would cup just the opposite way.
Elisha, love your projects and big fan of your modern House (you know that). Just wanted to say that using earphones, the audio is not coming from the right side / right speaker... at first I thought it was me, but all other videos play ok on both sides! Not sure I'm the first one to say that too... 1 minute and forward the audio comes back to both sides!
It looks amazing,and only 300 for it,you would spend triple that if not more for one that size. Have a great weekend.
Love 😍So inspired to build our own table since nothing we can find is what want for less then 2 grand.
It’s gorgeous! My favorite shape table is round!
Always learn so much from you. Beautiful table, but I would have changed the door to open outside. Hope you understand what I mean, in Sweden it’s most common to open our doors that way, windows to. Take care, and be safe! 💗
That's interesting! I have often wished my doors swung the other way, but building code here requires exterior doors to swing inward.

Absolutely Beautiful! So talented!
Gorgeous!! Well done!!! ❤❤❤❤
Very educational and well edited video
Great job on the table~! Pretty good thinking on using the barrel and the veneer covered it nicely~!
I really enjoy your videos. This table is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Great project, thank you for sharing, the tableis bomb!
Fantastic work, guys! Nicely done! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
At about the 3:30 mark the audio is in both channels. The background music is always in both channels.
omg.. thought I was going crazy lol
This was a great project and I really like the idea of using the barrel and sand to support the large diameter
Try using transtint on a sample piece. It usually will bring out the grain in wood more so there is more detail in the base.
Awesome vid! I am so eagerly awaiting a client commission for a round table. They seem so fun!
Beautiful table,really wanna have one
Great job! Since you’re not a fan of how the base looks from a distance, I’d suggest you surround the base layer with wood dowels and give it a fluted dining table look. That would give you the wooden look you were hoping for. I know those fluted style dining tables are quite popular and go for thousands!

So ingenious, great work, i love it... 👍
Great video and great ingenuity with the barrel and sand! Where did those cool dining chairs come from?
beautiful job, I like the neckties

I always want a lot of padding for my bottom.... but that's just me. Nice work. Hey! Love your mic! I got one of those too. Great work. Enjoyed the video. 🤓💛💙💪
I love your hair color!
This was amazing. How is the veneer barrel holding up?
We've been using it a few months now and it's holding up great!
This is beautiful! Do you ever make furniture for clients? I’ve been searching for a 72” round table top for a little over a year now. 😢
That table top looks amazing! I agree about the veneer looking a bit bland, but not a lot you can do about it.
nice build overall and very affordable. For a big table top like that I would recommend using threaded inserts instead and use c channel to prevent wood movement.

Love the hair color on you

Amazing! Where did you get these chairs from? Thank you!
Amazing masterpiece, great job!
Would you be able to use a wood pedestal at 60” or maybe a few inches smaller?

Just use the jig saw from the top and forget the drilling. Then flush cut. Nice table!!!
You are a very smart, beautiful young lady. Your husband is a lucky man to have you!!

I have a feeling she does these video edits without headphones. Because if she did she would head the difference in audio going from stereo to mono during the parts where she is using the wireless mic.
Nobody actually cares dude.
@@Fabian7024 😂right...
So this is not YT's fault?
@@chalesrv nope it's not.
@@Fabian7024 He's giving helpful advice unlike your idiotic response.
My left ear enjoyed this.
Oh and now my right ear enjoyed a little bit

I wish I was THAT chair by the door😅
Nice job 👍
I’m wondering if a concrete base would hold it as well?
Excuse my ignorance but I was curious about cutting the top. Couldn’t one drill one hole to insert the jigsaw blade and follow the routed path?
your method is simpler. but her method is easier on the jigsaw and her hand i guess.
No, not with with the boards she is using. Its way to thick. She would end up burning through too many bits at that deep of a cut. Not to mention it would leave a way rougher finish.
I will say that she should have just flipped the table over and used the router on the second side too instead of drilling all those holes and then the jigsaw. I would have just put and x going down the center of the table to align the second side and use the same circle jig to finish it off.
Oh I see! Very good points made for all involved. I guess the old adage stays true: slow is fast!
nice job!
Did you attach the sandbags at all?
Nice table.. the table isn't tipping on some point ?
Thank you.
Can you make one 65” same table for me?
Thanks for the video your table looks great and you have well dressed helpers. I am working on a 54" round table. Were you able to get the table flat enough for a level to set across it or did you just worry about sanding the joints smooth?
And this is my Left Ear and it loved your video! People on headphones? anyone?
very good
What type of wood did you use?
How wide should door frame be?
Excelente, parabéns! 🇧🇷
