- So here's our second video in our series of 3, and in this one, I learned how to veneer on a dining table I designed. Some frustrations, and trigonometry, but we made it happen. Thanks so much for tuning in to our channel, we can't thank you enough. Stay tuned for more videos soon.

Welcome to our channel! The 2024 New Year had us ready to begin this RUclips journey-
thanks for following along.
Here you will find a woodworker making lots of mistakes but learning as I go,
featuring all your favorite wood species and figured tables!
We will be doing videos on mostly commissions, with a large veneer conference table up.
Watch our shorts and long-form projects here. As always, reach out with any questions.

Randomly found your video. Absolutely love your commentary and honesty! Reminds me of Cam from Blacktail studio. You've gained a new follower 👍🏼
That is high praise and I really appreciate it. Welcome aboard and stay tuned! We will get better at the videos and have some cool tables coming up!
Man that cross cut for the angle on the bottom. Sketchy lucky nothing bad happened
I enjoyed the running dialogue. It's especially helpful to talk about what worked and what didn't work in the process. We all know the best learning comes out of the mistakes we make! Great Video - Keep em coming!
Will do and I’m so glad you enjoyed it! We have a bunch of cool stuff planned so stay tuned and thank you so much for watching!
Great job! I enjoyed watching the process.
Thank you for watching!
Get this guy some subscribers asap !!! Nice job, loved the struggle..
That’s what I’m saying man, we need all we can get! thank you for watching!
Very nice! Glad see your use of PPE.
Got to. You can feel it on you if you don't!
I have never done any veneer, but I am trying to do a floating media console with walnut veneer, and just when I'm thinking about it, the universe sends me this video. Learn a lot, thank you
I’m glad it could help! Veneersupplies.com has a huge amount of information about everything and every product. It’s incredibly helpful and then the vaccum bag really makes it pretty easy. Cant recommend it enough. That brown glue is called ultra cat and it’s amazing. Highly recommend. It’s a really cool process. Good luck with it and feel free to message me with any questions 👍. Thanks for watching
That’s killer!!!
👊👊👊 thanks man!
Impresive
Great end result! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
Table looks great but I'd never even be able to get it in my house. Must have been fun getting it into place
Haha yea mine neither. I thought it would have to be in two halves, assembled once inside but by some miracle this client had 92” tall doors. So we had a few inches to spare in each side, it was heavy though! 👊👊
Enjoying your content, good stuff!
Thank you! We will keep improving, but I really appreciate you watching!
Great job the table looks amazing
Thank you so much, it turned out better than I was expecting!
Well done content
Thank you!
the contact cement you used looked funky to me. Normally its an amber color, yours was whiteish.
Could be. Im thinking it needs double the amount the directions say but im honestly still not sure why it happened
how come if you have to veneer both sides because of water absorption you didn't veneer the inside of the pyramid base please?
I figured because the base was epoxied down at the sides, it wouldn’t be able to move regardless. I also felt that with the false bottom under the top, I maybe didn’t have to do it, but I wanted to be safe since it’s free floating. Also it looks a good bit better 👊
Cool video, you guys did a fantastic job
Thank you James!
love your Moak jointer, I have one too they're fabulous
Thank you , Yea that thing is incredible. Solid cast iron, super heavy. I just had a custom Byrd helical head made for it and it runs like a dream. “Don’t make them like that anymore” definitely applies haha
@@Kingfisherwoodworks no they don't. Mine still has a straight knife head, all 3 of my jointers Do, I won't change them, I have an Oliver 299d planer with an itch head which is amazing. I am going to do a shop tour one of these days and post it, I have a lot of old amazing stuff that no one ever posts on here
Yea that moak is really the only old machine I have and it’s wild how much more bullet proof they made things back then…and it still works perfectly, so I’d be very interested to see a tour if your shop. Thank you for watching👊 👊
very ambitious first veneer project but it came out awesome. I think for the base i would have cut and fit the triangles with dominos in the mitres prior to veneering. that way you wouldnt have to do the awkward clamping part. what finish did you spray? came out super nice
Thank you! Yea I thought about dominoes but I was nervous about matching the 51.1 degrees, and I didn't want to build calls and use actual clamps, but rather use the screws to pull it together. In hindsight I think you are probably right and dominoes would have been best. I could have used the vacuum bag for all four sides as well with that method. We live and we learn, that is just vararthane polyurethane. Have to thin it but once you do it sprays pretty well.
I wonder if others have had contact cement do this ?
Yea I wonder as well. It was probably user error but who knows
How do people have stuff, "on order", for 3 years?!?! Im not buying anything, with that sort of lead time.
Haha yea I wouldn’t either. That was a tree they had in front of their building and they cut it down three years ago, I cut 3” thick slabs with the log and I air dried it for 2.5 years, then it went to a solar kiln, and then to a actual kiln. Now building the table and will be done in time for the addition they are adding. So the woods has been drying in preparation for construction to stop. If I had a lead time of 3 years I’d be hiring a whole bunch of people haha.
Leave this to the professionals, you have no idea of the learning curve. Another one hour wonder !
