In this video I am building a huge conference table that will live in the tasting room of a new winery. Most of the lumber for this build was grown and harvested on the owner’s property, which made for a challenging and fun build. In order to stretch the lumber I received across a 16’ x 5’ table, I used shop-made veneer. Additionally, this build utilized plenty of other interesting techniques including template routing, segmented curves, domino joinery, and a lot of veneering good times.

the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. kzhead.infoUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we wont be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.
As a hobbyist woodworker, your projects are so huge and daunting, but your videos are so well done and I love the humor you add as well.
Came for the woodworking....stayed for incredibly dry yet hilarious comedy!!! you guys are great!
I've been here for a couple years now and I'm starting to think that this isn't accually a DIY channel...
I agree. And this is the Chris's channel. I'm sad that he share his channel...
@@arankthnar just to be clear - it was more of a joke. I always knew their skill is beyond reach. And Shaun? Had my sub as well, so I see no harm here.
jajajaaj x2
Not with that attitude it ain't for you.
Yeah...this guy...Just Make Love to the Wood , And . . . i'dont see holes on the video😂
The production quality of your woodworking and your videos is fantastic
I love the yellow VW Caddy Rabbit in the background at 2:08 . After I first saw one it's always been a dream car of mine.
I had been looking for one for years! Finally found one in good condition and couldn't pass it up.
a glance as well @ 3:33 ; good choice of car!
Thank you for the video. Learned you can take multiple cuts using a flush trim bit instead of taking a full thickness cut all at once. I bought and used a two inch long flush trim bit for my previous project. It was scary. Will use your guy's technique next time. Thank you
You two are awesome I kinda miss the two channels, but your styles and crafts have a strong synergy going on
Glad to hear that! Thanks!
Really impressed by this build - absolutely bananas in terms of scope / size.
Really appreciate it! It was quite an undertaking.
You guys are hilarious. Oh, and pretty fantastic carpenters
6:03 That’s a looot of work...tumbs up guys👍🏻. I just thought of a little very helpful advice we learned at vocational school ( just in case you didn‘t know): For a harmonic „veneer-image“ (Furnierbild as we call it in Germany) put the veneer with its bright sapwood(edge) only nexto sapwood, and heartwood nexto heartwood...the crossings appear more natural through this arrangements. This means: [sapwood, heartwood] [heartwood, sapwood] [sapwood, heartwood] etc... I really appreciate your work and all your effort. In my opinion one of the best woodworking channels. Ps: it looks soo relaxing...but when you’re in the workshop things go complicated or stressful😅...especially when you glue something and everything has to be accurate Greetings form Germany
Yes I learned something new today 😁. Really interesting technic. I'll write this down 😊
Thank you! Yes, it can get pretty stressful, which is why we like to make our videos feel as calm as possible!
Merel Velthoen ...i‘m glad that i could help you😄...nethertheless do what suits/works best for you, it‘s just a guidline
Shaun Boyd - Foureyes ...yea that‘s a huge plus👍🏻. You guys make it seem so easily...am i the only one with these issues during my woodworking projects🙈😂.
I like this, because I clearly understand almost all that he speaking. I native russian speaker and listening in english is hard for me. But not here for some mysterious reason.
Hahaha yes sure, Shaun, always cut first and then measure, great! 😀 Lovely video and table!
You are great woodworkers. I am getting a lot of inspiration from you two.
Glad to hear that! Thanks for watching!
15:40 I appreciate the Burgundy method for sticking to the script. Also, great build/video.
Haha, can’t go off script. Thanks!
This is the second time I'm watching the whole video, this never gets old
Well. Its been a while since I found a channel to binge on. Awesome work guys!
wow this was a big project. nicely done
You're both 100% the kind of dudes I just want to hang out with all the time. I just love you guys, that's all. Also, that table is dope.
Haha! Appreciate that! We like to think we are fun to hang out with, too.
This piece is pretty impressive. Broad range of techniques used as well. Well done!
Thanks Sam!
Fantastic job gentlemen! As always, very inspiring
Happy to hear that! Thanks!
If those red Vans can tell a story...Nice work guys
Wow. this must have taken soooooo long to finish. Love it!
It has been a marathon, for sure!
Mr. Boyd is an exceptional woodworker.
Really appreciate that! Thank you!
Wow! What a project. Looks wonderful.
Thanks Bob!
What a amazing table. A lot of work, but beautiful in the end.
Thank you, really appreciate it!
As always a superior video! Great build. You guys ROCK!
Really appreciate, Tom!
beautiful work Shaun, loved the cady in the shop, remind me of my Golf mk1
Thank you! That is my new shop truck, I am loving it so far!
The veneer sled is brilliant!
It worked like a charm!
You guys do fantastic work ! Nice job on the table and a very good video !! Actually, a “GREAT” job on the table !!!
Really appreciate that! Thanks John!
Brilliant video from start to finish and is packed with lots of pro tips and techniques. You are even teaching a bit of geometry which is really helpful in woodwork. I'm looking forward to you building a mitre station if you are going to do one?
Hahahha. They won't buy let alone build a mitre station
WOW this is a monster project. Looks amazing!
Thank you! It was quite an undertaking.
Such an interesting build! Unbelievable work guys!
Thanks for watching!
Crazy scale of a table!! Amazing work!
Thank you!
Looks amazing thank you for sharing!!
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful....just beautiful! ❤️
Thank you!
What I wouldn't give to work in a shop like that for a few weeks :) Love the video, the project, the cuts and the soundtrack!
Thank you! Really appreciate it!
You all make the best videos! Always get a smile out of me.
Glad to hear that!
This guy is great.
Neat trick with the veneer sled. I have a very complicated project coming up and the sled technique will help a lot.
Awesome! It works like a charm.
Such a beautiful table!!
Thanks Scott!
oh boy am I glad whenever you to are putting out videos. Lovely stuff can always tell who took the lead almost immediately
Glad to hear that! Thanks for watching!
you guys are awesome and simple ♥
Congrats man. Beautiful job, next level.
Thank you, really appreciate it!
What an incredible build!
Thank you!
OMG. It's very hard work. Good job guys. Super good job.
Thank you!
Great job!!! Congratulations!!!!!
Thank you!
Love the striped sockets and sandals 😉
Haha, I will let Chris know.
More wineries should table from you all.
Cara, vocês são ótimos... Parabéns pelo belo projeto!
Obrigado!
Best 20 minutes on youtube! Awesome job!
Happy to hear that! Thanks for watching!
Great build and great to see the return (although limited) of scrapsketball.
Appreciate it! Yeah, this was a weird version of scrapsketball.
Excited to finally see the video after listening to the podcast for last month 😁
This one has been a long time coming, for sure.
Just epic. Today I finally warmed to Shaun. Stellar work mate, stellar.
Appreciate it.
For me Shawn was an acquired taste... happy I got there early cause the two of you together are killing it!
Nice build and I love the style. My favorite part has to be the little sneak peek of the cabby! Got me excited enough to give you a follow on Instagram. Also I would not be sad if you guys had an offshoot video or a few on your cars and restoration of. Great work per usual.
Thanks, man! I have been toying with the idea of doing some car content, just a matter of finding the time.
Your videos and commentary reflects lot of calmness and serenity in the entire build process. Considering such a complex piece, i wanted to ask if you guys ever lose your cool (coz i do even when building a little shelf in my tiny shed 😃) ?
Oh definitely! I try to keep it in perspective, but things get frustrating at least a couple times during each build.
Beautiful!
Thank you!
really enjoyed seeing this as I have heard all about it through the modern maker podcast
Me too. I love seeing the videos I’ve been hearing about in the podcast.
Right on, glad to hear that!
Wow so nice! Great video!
Oh man, I wish I could’ve raided your offcuts from this project. That whole slab with all the bark would’ve been perfect for a project I’m working on.
I’m raiding him first!
There sure were a lot of offcuts, though most of them still had bugs living in them.
such sensual music. nice table
That was expert usage of a Mr. Rogers clip. I LOLed IRL.
That was truly, truly magical!
Haha, it is such a perfect clip!
Right?! I probably scared the roomies.
Beautiful proyect brother
Project
@@weeklydoseofgaming2254 sorry,project,I'm argentinean 👍👍👍👍
Thank you, José!
very impressive and nice table. You should be careful with only putting veneer on the top though, this can lead to warping
Really beautiful build!
Thank you!
Great film, nice story telling. Beautiful table. Mahalo for sharing! 🐵
Thank you!
Inspiring !!!
Killer project boys!! Loving the content!
Thanks man! Appreciate it!
Awesome work Shaun! 😃👌🏻👍🏻👊🏻
Thanks Fred! 👍🙌😁
Wow just wow
Thank you!
Shaun Boyd - Foureyes ur very welcome my friend make on
Hello my friend. Unless you try out the innovations, you cannot learn something new. And you are always working to teach innovations. And you always produce innovative studies and ideas. Thank you for sharing. See you. greetings.
I really appreciate that! Thank you!
Stellar job!
Thanks!
I always enjoy the videos Shaun!
Really appreciate it! Thanks man!
30 seconds in and I'm already dropping that thumbs up!!
Appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
Beautiful
Thanks!
Haha, dorks! Excellent use of that precious resource.
Thank you! 😁
You guys ROCK! Love to watch your videos. One question regarding this project, and I know it must have been the customers request but you don't mention it anywhere in the video, unless of course it was your idea. Why make it semi circled? I did notice the initial floor plan and the table was going to sit in a semi circled room but, for those sitting at the ends of the concave side of the table, they may not be able to see each other! That's what I am wondering about.
I almost screamed when you poured the colored epoxy into the gap. I cannot believe the color didn't leech into the wood
Little bit of sanding takes care of it.
@@shaunb66 Just sanded down fine prior so no voids for it to seep into?
@@Russ-od2yy Yeah, pretty much. There is always a tiny bit of bleed into the grain, but that usually goes away with a bit of sanding afterwards.
Yes!
I absolutely love this build. UH OH's, No Handy Dandy "Bandy Clamps" for you Tw2 Champs? For edge banding.
Just one thing. I loved it. 😮😮😮
Thank you!
Really nice work!!
Thank you!
Ha! I always wondered why Shaun wasn't posting more videos but figured it out tonight!😄 Great build!🍻
Haha, so true! Thanks Matt!
🤩🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤩 I’m speechless! Wow!
Thanks Brandy! We had a similar reaction the first time we saw it as one large table.
The Mr. Rogers cut away was brilliant. 🤣👍
Haha, it always fits perfectly!
Every time I hear someone say thinkness I think of you guys thicknie
Very interesting and impressive design!
Thank you!
Great build video!!
Thank you!
Thanks for the squarespace promo code! Still watching the video so not sure if they're a sponsor but still saved me a little $$
Ha got a little further in... thanks square space!
Haha, nice! Glad you could use it.
Looks great! nice work
Thank you!
Great work
Thanks!
The music is perfect for these videos!
Glad to hear that!
awesome work
Thank you!
Amazing work as always, I love the stuff you make! How long did it take you guys from start to finish?
The weird times have done something to me. For whatever reason, “thickni” came off as way more funny than you may have intended. As always men, quality stuff. Thank you.
Glad to hear that! Thanks!
That intro was epic!!!
No it really wasn't
Woodworking? Completed it mate.
Haha, I did it! Thanks man!
Looks amazing
Thank you!
Great presentation! Three questions, if I may. How thick did you cut the veneer; did you leave the underside of the ply substrate unveneered; and, how did you finish the tabletop?
:O makes one just want to take up a brand new career in woodworking!! thanks!
Haha, thanks Peggy!
