This week I show you how to build a DIY farmhouse dining table using reclaimed barn wood lumber, featuring epoxy inlays. My friends asked me to build them a Parsons style table, and I came up with the idea to use reclaimed lumber, and pour pigmented epoxy into the voids. Let me know what you think about this DIY farmhouse table. Thanks!

    I really love it when these diy channels admit to making mistakes, and avoid post-project rationalisation. Great job.
  • @rodrigopina322
    Love this book! youtube.com/post/UgkxpCNxqmAkyjN6NPx1fyB7QiEFWyO5m… it is simply one-of-a-kind! I really love it, because karah explained all tools required to have the job done, not mentioning the fabulous diy pallets ideas. I'm pretty sure this will be a fresh start in my new endeavour. Amazon was great, they delivered on time. Thank you!
  • @wile1coyote
    I love how you show the mistakes that you made and how you addressed them. This is why I keep coming back to your builds vs others. Knowing what to do when something goes wrong is priceless!
  • @Nmdresser
    Man, this turned out gorgeous. Haha! When you kept referring to going back to the drawing board makes me realize how much "patience" woodworking teaches us. I just split my project right as I was adding the legs, but your tenacity and expertise inspired me to stop complaining and learn from my beginner mistakes. Thanks for sharing.
  • @aros007z
    Wow, now I feel better when things don't work out as planned in my workshop either. I guess we are all challenged on certain projects that don't go as planned. Big of you to show and explain the glitches of your project. Thank you for the video.
  • @localcrew
    I reclaimed a couple of container loads of poplar joists awhile back. Ended up wire brushing the surfaces to get rid of the planer knife destroying grit. Used a seven inch angle grinder with wire brush on it. Also pulled a few buckets of nails & bolts. Totally worth it though. Great video. Nice outcome.
  • @mikerobbins5049
    Nice... I really like the table. Having been a Shop Teacher in a High School for 33 yrs I can appreciate the work that went into the table. I also love the rustic look of the old barn wood
  • @YoungAtHeart9
    Loved that you used reclaimed lumber and that you filled the gaps with the blue/green/white metallic! That’s my favorite color! I’m currently remodeling my kitchen and would LOVE to find something like this as a new table for the space. Also love your attention to detail. Great job.
  • @nickatdallas
    All the mistakes you made are actually very helpful for subscribers like me. Being honest is more important than anything else at least in my opinion. 👍
  • @BruceAUlrich
    Reclaimed stuff can be so difficult to work with. You did a good job sticking with it and not letting any of the issues stop you from getting it done though. I like how the tinted epoxy looks with the reclaimed lumber.
  • @redshed1787
    At 9:40 you should show how you fixed it. The problem is with all reclaimed wood including (apparently) yours. That was a teachable moment !! thx
  • @adam24817
    Dang man I don't think you'll ever see this because of all the views but you are amazing your attention to detail and care for history leaves me in awe and tears actually. Your amazing keep it up!
  • Nice work, I think the top from the first table could easily be reused as a side board , bathroom vanity, an island top,or even a cool door so it wasn't a total loss👍😀
  • @gabiglaezer8685
    Nice video thanks for sharing! We use large syringes to fill in the resin into the smaller cracks. They are quite cheap and it works well for us.
  • @dickdanger7867
    I like that he points out the mistakes made. That's how we learn.
  • I love the contrast in materials and color. The use of reclaimed lumber just adds to the allure and beauty of the raw materials you combined. Great job. I watched this video without sound and it looks like everything came out as planned.
  • @rafael55
    I saw a guy apply epoxy that was transparent with just a touch of color and coat the whole table about 1/8 to 1/4 in. above the wood. looked super good.
  • @reason43poole37
    Such a great presentation, showing the mistakes, being real about it is so instructive. going through this process right now with reclaimed timber. Had the epoxy leaking problem not solved until your demonstration. Many thanks.
  • My Mom has an old “Mission Style” or as some people call it “Arts and crafts” table from the late 1800s or early 1900s. It’s oak and it’s just beautiful, those that are well done just never wear out, it’s a family heirloom. It’s made almost like your table only there’s no glue or nails. You did a beautiful job with this table and I love the reclaimed lumber and epoxy.
  • @DRAGNET-pn5vf
    LOOKS GOOD, IT'S NICE THAT YOU WORKED OUT THE KINKS ON THE FIRST TABLE AND BUILT YOUR SECOND ONE, THAT'S HOW WE ALL LEARN IN THIS LIFE. THANKS FOR SHARING. 🇺🇲🌞✌️👍
