In this video, I'll demonstrate how to make a simple side table using solid lumber. These are classic table-making techniques and can be used for making any table.
Some of what you'll learn:
• Selecting lumber with interesting figure, even if it has knots or imperfections, to add character to the project.
• Assessing and preparing the boards for the tabletop.
• Gluing the boards together to create the tabletop and addressing any bowing.
• Tapering the table legs for added sophistication.
• Cutting out and assembling the apron pieces using pocket hole joinery.
• Using tabletop clips to accommodate wood expansion and contraction.
• Filling voids in the tabletop with a mixture of sanding dust and white glue.
• Sanding and finishing techniques, including using spray lacquer for a durable finish.
• Emphasizing the beauty of natural wood and the potential for wood to change color over time.
The video provides detailed insights into the woodworking process, focusing on creating a simple and elegant table. It also encourages you to embrace simplicity in woodworking design and showcases various techniques and tips throughout the project.
