    Old growth doug fir never disappoints. Glad you've been able to get back into woodworking again. Wonderful, all the way around.
  • Wow. I've watched you since the typewriter video. My wife has watched Jenna for a very long time. I introduced my wife to you a while ago and I watched Jenna with my wife for a year. The audible gasp in our house when you said "This is Jenna Phipps" This is kinda awesome.
  • It’s beautiful! You did a great job replicating the inspiration photo and improving it!

    Been following your journey for a while. I'll only speak for myself here, but I'm happy to see you doing more wood work. Welcome back.
  • Awesome job, love these reclaimed wood videos. So glad you've brought them back man. The tables came out amazing.
  • I have 12” wide, 12’ long old growth Douglas fir shelving rescued from an old factory in Seattle and trucked home to Port Angeles. It was from their office storeroom, cut to fit (no nails) and never had finish applied. In working with Doug Fir, I learned it gets harder and harder the older it is. Hoping to someday make a bookcase out of some of it. But it seems I now have more fun turning wood than doing flat work. So it sits in my pole barn getting occasional admiration. Glad you lucked into some.

    Wouldn't a drill press and wooden dowels accomplish the same thing as those dominoes?
  • @josephhwang1428
    Pretty spot on work. Again. So happy to see woodworking videos

    If you want another project, for the unfinished house, you could go with a chair that is legless, and would lean back, on the floor. That way, the table can be higher up so you can lounge on the floor next to the table.

    OMG TWO OF MY FAVORITE YOUTUBERS TO WATCH RN COLLABORATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yay Morley and Jenna!!! :D
  • @senddhelpp9908
    hey !! a great way to get rid of a wobble is to set your table saw as low as possible and run your table or chair on it side to side !! hope this helps
  • @makedaevilmage
    Those are some gorgeus looking tables. Would look great with a big plant on top or something. Love the design.
  • Great video as usual! I could see a nice studio desk with that beautiful wood. With a keyboard tray under it for electronic piano or MIDI controller keyboard. Just a note about the Festool Domino. It's stated that dust extraction must always be used with it. It helps with tool longevity and performance.
  • Absoultly NAILED this project (pun intended). I am excited to see what you use the rest of the wood for!
  • @edled5939
    Hi Morley! Its always exciting to see another video uploaded by you. Although I must say, I highly prefer your old style of wood working videos. The storytelling is so much better, the build is much more satisfying, the backgroud music and compilation and time lapses were very nice to watch and the progress of the build is more apparent which makes the end result more satisfying. Just a thought out there just in case youre looking for constructive criticism
  • @TomCornell1
    Great to have these sorta vids back on the channel!
  • @anniekate76
    Hooray for makerspaces! I belong to The Bodgery in Madison, WI, which is a tool wonderland quite similar to the one Morley depicts!
  • @acbolen5
    Morley! The talent that you’ve been gifted is absolutely amazing. I love your videos more than anything. You are the one channel that I follow that I constantly look for a new upload. Incredible work!
