    My husband and I built this table 6 years ago before we got married. We used a wood burner to add designs into it and our last name. It has moved with us 3 times now and is still as sturdy as the day we built it. We love it!

    I've been an experienced woodworker for over 50 years, and I really like you guys and the stuff you build because you take a very simple approach to building useful furniture pieces that lots of young families can make themselves at very low cost -- and they turn out pretty darn nice, by the way. Keep on doing what you're doing.

      This is just superb, I've been looking for "how to make a tabletop out of plywood" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Fenadelyn Esteemed Framework - (should be on google have a look )?
      It is an awesome one off product for discovering how to improve your woodworking skills without the normal expense. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my cousin got amazing success with it.

You show men and women that they don't need to have a fancy fully-equipped shop with expensive tools in order to have fun building nice pieces of furniture for their homes -- especially young couples living on a slim budget in a small apartment. Always look forward to seeing your newest projects.

I like that someone explained the purpose of the mortise and tenon joints and how they make a difference, but that's not within the realm of a beginning woodworker. This table is 100 times better than a pressed fiber board melamine table from Walmart that costs 200.

      Because it's not a $50 table, more like $80 to $100, but hey at least on this project they used wood glue. But if you wanna get technical, a square is your best friend if your a beginning woodworker and showing how to use a tape measure to check square. Also add a square block to the top of the legs, one to the table and tobuild up the thickness of the table and attach the legs from underneath. Finally, her staining job looks like poop because its pine.

Supplies we got from HD and cost about $40 per bench and $120 in lumber for the table. It took 3 weekends to complete in phases. Sanded, stained and it came out beautiful. So worth it! Plus it’s so rewarding to DIY! Thank you so much Rehab Life for sharing this and inspiring us!

      Just finished the benches and about to start our table now. One thing I'm going to have to retrofit is the bench because we need to save space, so will make it shorter so it can go underneath the table. But other than that, I think it is a great design. I switched 2x3's out with 2x4's for strength. Oh, in terms of the negative comments, seems normal to me. Most people that would do that have never built anything - if they had, they certainly wouldn't criticize this design/build.

    • @dannersmyers
      @dannersmyers 8 лет назад +7

      I would say most of the negative comments are from professionals like myself. We know how warped and twisted this table will be after the exterior grade lumber dries out indoors. I guess if you don't mind the sound of plates clinking and clanking on your warped table surface and the half inch shim underneath one leg to keep the whole table from teeter tottering, it's great!!! I think the other thing that's ticking some people off, is when they go to their local Home Depot and spend $120 on the same materials..

    • @dannersmyers
      @dannersmyers 8 лет назад +1

      +Dianne Jurgen you can build furniture with exterior grade lumber if you dry it first. I'm not saying it's going to happen right away, it usually takes 2 to 3 years to stabilize. Hopefully you're lucky enough to be buying from the Home Depot that lets their lumber sit around long enough indoors to dry below a 12% moisture level. In that case you would be good to go, so I'm not saying it's impossible, just very unlikely from my experience as a professional cabinetmaker and renovator. I used to build things out of exterior grade lumber as well, and now most of those projects are warped and twisted with cracks and splits.

    • @dannersmyers
      @dannersmyers 8 лет назад +5

      +Dianne Jurgen if it's the affordability of the 2by lumber that allows you to build projects keep doing it!!! Next time stack your lumber all face to face and get an employee to put some packing straps around the stack. That should pull them tight essentially making one large piece of wood that is less likely to warp when it dries out. Then just bring it into your house to dry for 4-6 months before using it. after you've cut the straps on your dry stack of lumber and build what you want with it it should stay that way forever.

      The joints of the wood on the top will be problematic down the road... they will collect dirt, debris, food, play-doh, pet hair and lord only knows what else. Trust me, you only make this mistake once. The next table she builds she will either joint the boards to get tight seams, or she will fill the joints. Mark my words.......

    • @eNosArmory
      @eNosArmory 8 лет назад +2

      At a minimum I would have sealed the raw wood before staining, especially with Pine, this prevents the stain finish from being all blotchy, which it clearly is in this video. This is no trick, its on the back of Minwax Stain can to use Minwax Pre-Stain Wood Conditioner before you apply the stain to seal the wood. I don't know why one would skip this step other than to save a little money or time. It would have turned out much better though had they not skipped this step in Minwax's instructions. Your finish is only as good as your prep work.

    • @alexsenst4912
      @alexsenst4912 8 лет назад +1

      Pre-stain works okay, but the main impact on stain (imho) is grain. If you have inconsistent grain on the boards (ie.. one board having linear grain and the other having flat grain) the wood will absorb stain differently. So choose boards with the same pattern on the end grain, or end of the board. Sanding is also something that will help a lot. Start with 80 and work your way up to 120, 150 and 180. this will help keep wood texture more consistent and help with the staining process.

    I understand many will say that proper jointery would save many problems. I agree. However, tutorials like this, and Ana White, are a launching pad for beginner wood workers. In that, I see them as a good thing.
    Maybe the table warps over time. Maybe in that same time, the person learns to build a better constructed table. Without this video, or ones like it, they may never have had the courage to attempt to make anything.
    My only issue is when I see someone on ETSY, selling a "distressed pine" farm house table, improperly built, for 700 dollars. That is just plain wrong.

      Why would the table warp??

    • @SyzMtrs
      @SyzMtrs 8 лет назад +33

      Theresa Dean .. because wood is dynamic and moves with variations in humidity. if screwed or nailed down, it can't move along the grain as it is intended and will either warp, cup, or the joints will pull apart. As someone's level of experience grows, they learn how to joint wood to allow for movement. but we all start somewhere. If this video makes someone want to learn more, then I say it is a great thing.

      So what would you use instead of screws or nails?

    • @SyzMtrs
      @SyzMtrs 8 лет назад +35

      I would use mortise and tennon joints to attach the legs to the apron, and the bread boards to the top. (The end boards). I would use figure 8's or Z clips to attatch the top to the apron. These all allow for movement in the wood without damage to the joints, or cupping and warping of the boards.

    Thanks for the inspiration and awesome, easy to follow video!

    First, great job you guys, building anything that you love is incredibly rewarding, and it does look good given what you were trying to accomplish. However, give it a year, you'll see why using lumber from the local home center is a terrible idea for a piece like this. Warping and sap are going to be an issue for years to come. It won't happen at first, it takes a bit, but it happens to the best of us. As everyone who knows has already pointed out gluing down the top like that doesn't let the wood expand and contract. You don't fully appreciate what that means until you see the splitting and cracking that happens, and it isn't in some cute "shabby chic" way, it's in a tacky, low quality craftsmanship way. But I'm guessing you guys are pretty new at this, and honestly for a first attempt you did a great job. Experience is the best teacher, and just doing a project like this, with all of it's flaws, gives you a great experience to draw from on your future projects, believe me, I have my own home store wood table on my patio, experience will teach you in the end. Carry on.

      justin barrett Look Bub, many are here trying to let idiots like yourself (DIY) not to throw money away on a very poor way of doing something that is going to warp and fall apart in short time. Also, as mention by others, there is no way this project was done under $50. I don't need to waste my time in front of a camera and editing software. There are more than enough really good and knowledgeable woodworkers out there to learn from. You want to come watch her work so you can see her boobs. Just admit it, but quit thinking this was any way proper in making a table.

    • @cleartexas
      @cleartexas 8 лет назад +10

      I'm a seasoned woodworker who just had to sell my equipment during a move. Happy to find this video online actually. And it wasn't a chop saw (whose actual name is a compound miter saw) that I used, it was a circular saw. After having put this project together, I'd say there were only a few tweaks I needed to make - not a fan of finish nails though rink shank would be an easy switch, and understand the purpose. Good design, not perfect and not $50, but nevertheless good. Part of DIY culture is learning and tweaking (which is the purpose of the comment section, just so you know).

      Lowes/Home Depot is too expensive for wood. Only go there for 2x4's.
      Rockler and Woodcraft are good but pricey. Find a local hardwood dealer. Stay away from companies with "lumber" or "building materials" in the name. Key word to look for is "hardwood".

(Bot some 2 weeks ago and was stunned) You have 1 x 10" which would cost more. And you ought to predrill those 5" screws thru the legs into the lower "I" assembly. And please wear safety glasses working the chop saw to help preserve eyes on the beautiful face! Nice video!
