Hey everyone it's Dylan we're back again for another week here in the shop
uh before we start this video the water cooled table plans are now out so we have two water
cooled tables set up in our four room we actually already have one guy who's trying to build his own
so he's waiting for these plants to come out we'll put a link down in the description go check those
out uh this week you're gonna see how we actually put leds on our tables that we make uh joe again
is in the background making kind of faces at me um so you're gonna see how we put our leds on
and uh the trestle base we're doing another solid wood trestle base so you're gonna see
how that gets to go together all right so there was a lot of comments on last week's video kind
of regarding the whole ceiling versus not ceiling edges thing so i just kind of wanted to talk about
it a little bit more in depth here um a lot of you guys brought up that you watch other youtubers who
see all the edges on their pores and the thing that that they do is they scuff the edge uh prior
to pouring their second casting pour and you guys were telling us that that that will help improve
the bond and you guys are completely right that does help improve the bond but we've tried that
too and like this table here uh it has a sealed edge we scuffed the edge and we also removed the
bark because i know that's something you guys said it only happened because we didn't remove the bark
but the barks off it's sealed it's scuffed and look at that i can stick my fingernail
right in at the bottom it started to separate right apart so you know we're not trying to
knock anyone who does seal their edges we're not trying to say that that's um that they're a bad
epoxy table make or anything this is just what we found in our experience and
the only way that we'll build the table and stand behind it is if we don't seal the edges cam
and adam are here again from new technology and they're actually getting ready to rig up another
one of our tables this is going to be an l-shaped desk going down to colorado so we're going to
put leds all along this back side of the river we got the controllers going in and it should
look pretty slick this is one of the most kind of complicated desks that we've actually done before
so
you just saw the eldest go together i don't know about you guys but i think it looks pretty
amazing um also let us know what your favorite color was on the leds i personally kind of like
that sort of turquoisey color in there that's my favorite let us know what you guys like um you
will notice though it's not together anymore and that is because the legs that we put on this they
actually didn't work in making it stable um they went on the end and they only came to about here
so it made the whole desk want to tip forward so we ordered new legs for a client they go all the
way to the end um it's a little bit of a delay but we'd probably rather just make this perfect
then send our clients something that's not going to be perfect and then next up what we're doing
we've got that big bass stone walnut table that we're working on we poured that a few weeks ago
uh we're doing the trestle base now so spencer and joe are gonna glue it all up
then we gotta oil it and then hopefully we'll get it put together this week it doesn't fit
yeah here it is
so
this piece here that we're doing this is actually the one that you just saw spencer and joe uh
working on gluing up and finishing it's going with I think the table's right over there it's a big
Bastogne walnut one very similar to the look of JB's table but just a little bit smaller I think
another little trick take your drill bit to find the depth that you want to go to and
throw a piece of tape on and then you know how far to drill in
i put the block on clamped it down line it up we put our pilot holes in so that's going to allow
all four of these holes to line up perfectly with those four holes and then the other
the final sort of piece of this once we get this all lined up
is this metal top plate so what this top plate is used for is we put screws we're using
if I can reach up oh my god
we're using these screws here um so those are going to be able to go right through the plate
and then if we look at the length they're actually long enough to go into that bottom
piece of the trestle there as you guys can kind of see so that screw is what's going to hold
all three of these pieces together and then these slots here once we have this on
that doesn't look very good um anyway once we have this on we put this screw
up like this and that's actually going to attach into the table it won't be this long
obviously we're not going to go through the table um but this that doesn't line up
but now it's kind of crooked too right no and then you you can do it
see the other ones try this okay minor difficulty hold on you guys that one don't work
yeah try that one
but then this won't match the holes underneath
well let's see if the plate lines up even though no yeah you're out yeah so
um okay we're kind of scared this is going to happen uh this our drill press wasn't really
working properly when we went to drill out these blocks and that means we had to drill them by hand
so they're not a hundred percent accurate in the same spot which means they actually
don't match our plates um i guess we need to make new blocks we have to make all of them
yeah all of them so okay literally all eight of these blocks no the bottom ones the bottom ones
are fine okay so it's just the four top blocks where it actually matters if it lines up with
the steel plate we now have to go remake all of these so we really wanted to show you guys
this base put together but i guess that'll be next week all right well i hope you guys enjoyed seeing
uh the l desk with the leds we didn't really get to put the trestle baits together because
the blocks were a little messed up but we're fixing those uh reminder again the water cool
plans those are out it would mean a lot if you guys can get those and support us um you know
most of the money that we make from our youtube like the ad revenue and that it all just goes
directly back into the channel trying to spend more time on videos for you guys so that kind of
stuff really helps us out and we may have a bonus video next week going out to that jerry the guy
who cut up those barrels for us we bought some more wood from him so stay tuned for that see ya
