Modern End Table / Side Table DIY Woodworking Project by Jon Peters

Modern End Table / Side Table DIY Woodworking Project by Jon Peters

This is the third piece of furniture I’ve made with Douglas Fir. There are links to the other two projects below and all include free design plans on my website. For this project, Imade a small end table or side table because I had one really nice bored left over from the sofa table build.  The Douglas Fir board measured only 70“ x 7 1/4“  so I had some design constraints and decided to make a simple box and used dovetails as the decorative element. My favorite part of the project was shaping the legs and I’ll probably use something similar to this leg design in a future project.

Jon O says:

Nice table and workmanship!! I like how the YT content creators watch each other too!!

Danny Radjkoemar says:

Dude, you should making stripings on cars, really nice lines.

Tony Blackwell says:

Nice looking table. Thanks

Thomas Kleinbauer says:

Hi, Jon. Nice little table! I was wondering why you went for dove tails here rather than, say, box joints?

Dennis Downes says:

Beautiful project! I'm sure there are "many" out there who would sneer at using 2×4's, but I find the grain on Douglas Fir so amazing and nobody said every piece has to be expensive mahogany!! Great Job Jon!

Ath Mostafa says:

NICE !🔨🔨👍

Rob Madsen says:

has anyone else Laughed out of ignorance as to the involvement in this DIY video??? now I know why IKEA modular furniture just comes with an Allen wrench and is so successful.

Darrell Coquillette says:

That looks great! My only minus is that you went through all the trouble of hand cut dovetails and then used screws
to assist in holding the legs on. They can be seen, and are not pretty. Thanks for the videos and for the format of
explaining what you are doing and why. Thanks again Jon!

Krm Rhb says:

Loving that “machine gun” chisel you used for the dovetails!

CodeFoxAu says:

Do you get snipe on a drum sander the same as you do on a thickness planer?

CodeFoxAu says:

Love this design!

CodeFoxAu says:

You put me onto Mohawk a few years back and I've loved using the products (even tho they're difficult to get in Australia).

ModestMaking says:

You've been using Mohawk products for as long as I have been alive. That's loyalty.

benjamin rauschenbach says:

Love the design! Great project.

respekitmor says:

Shit looks like it was built in an hour out of a pallet.

Jason Cooke says:

Why not hog out the dovetails with a bandsaw or copeing Saw? They came out great, but it seems like a lot of work.

Justin Stewart says:

Came out awesome 😎 👍

eggsngrits says:

I like that sofa table very much, and the end table is very good, too. Good ideas for the future.

Fred McIntyre says:

Nicely done Jon! 👍🏻👊🏻

cruizin31 says:

Awesome craftsmanship, Jon. Glad to see you went with hand cut dovetails. The leg proportions however are just too clunky for that little table and why would you pick HD grade construction lumber to build your furniture? What is it 6 growth rings per inch?

3dmazter says:

My wife loves your videos not because of the woodworking but she loves the sound of your voice 🙂

Nicholas Fox says:

This piece of furniture are about as ugly as it gets.

Moises Borges says:

Mais um belo trabalho. Parabéns abraço de Caxias do sul RS 🇧🇷.

BOBBY says:

Can a round over router bit be used to round of the legs. Thanks

BOBBY says:

Fantastic Jon. And thanks for free plans.

Stoph Stoph says:

Nice work. Terrible design. Extremely ugly.

Рустем кильдияров says:

На мой взгляд напрашивается второй и третий ряд. Повыше тумбочка была бы симметричней.))

Nick Lloyd-Jones says:

If you're worried about cutting into a biscuit, why did you use them?

Small Workshop Guy says:

Well done, Jon. Some nice tips and really good quality to your video production.
