Summary

TLDRThe video script details an ambitious woodworking project undertaken by an enthusiast who, inspired by a video from the Netherlands, decides to create a double bent live edge desk from a massive slab of wood. The project involves various stages, including finding the center of the slab, cutting it to size, and flattening itβ€”a task that proves more challenging than expected due to the slab's size and curvature. The woodworker then constructs a custom steam bending box, a new experience for him, and after several trials and errors, manages to bend the slab to the desired shape. Despite facing issues such as blade deflection, uneven thickness, and the complexity of the bends, the project progresses. The desk's assembly involves careful measurements, clamping, and gluing, with the woodworker expressing concerns about maintaining a 90-degree angle and achieving a perfect square shape. The process is fraught with tension, and the final outcome reveals a desk with a unique, albeit imperfect, live edge, reflecting the woodworker's journey and the inherent challenges of such an ambitious live edge woodworking endeavor.

Transcripts

00:02

thousands of you have been sending me

00:03

this video of these guys in the

00:05

Netherlands bending a Live Edge slab I

00:07

don't think I've been this excited since

00:09

I was 18 years old and discovered that

00:11

you can drink beer Faster by shotgunning

00:14

it and because I'm always looking for

00:15

new woodworking techniques particularly

00:17

with anything dealing Live Edge I knew

00:20

that of every test I've ever done on

00:21

this channel that this one in particular

00:23

was calling my name instead of doing

00:25

like a tiny little table we're going to

00:27

shoot the moon on this one I've got a 14

00:30

plus foot long slab that's about 3T wide

00:33

sitting in the other side of the shop

00:34

that I paid about $2,000 for and we're

00:37

going to do a 6 foot long double bent

00:40

Live Edge desk out of it and this should

00:42

get ridiculous so the likeliness of me

00:44

screwing this sucker up is is probably

00:47

higher than normal you know I've never

00:48

done curve cuts on this scale that could

00:50

get super squirely and then it looks

00:52

like in the video these guys are steam

00:54

bending it and I think I have to build a

00:55

custom steam bending box to make this

00:57

work which is also something I've never

00:59

done this is going to be great

01:00

potentially the best thing I've ever

01:01

made so I ordered two slabs and they're

01:03

huge I mean look at these they're

01:05

enormous that's a huge I chose

01:08

these because they're uniform one and

01:10

two it'll be a pretty good siiz desktop

01:13

right at the gate I don't know which one

01:14

I'm going to use quite yet but let's get

01:16

these up and then on some horses and

01:19

look at them I think I think that one's

01:22

a little bit straighter is you blind and

01:24

I I have this piece here so let's use

01:27

this

01:28

guy now got to pick it up and move it

01:31

you a biging

01:34

[Music]

01:37

fing enormous like I do with every slab

01:41

to get started I got to find Center

01:43

first that'll give me reference Mark to

01:45

then start like cutting things down this

01:47

will be almost the exact same kind of

01:48

breakdown and process I use in my master

01:51

class on live Edge and epoxy tables so

01:53

if you want to learn more about doing

01:54

some stuff like this and where I get all

01:55

my knowledge and give you guys a $50

01:57

discount just from watching this video

01:59

I'll have the link right here on screen

02:01

and the code will be down below but this

02:02

Center Line is going to be my rough

02:04

gauge on how I'm going to build like

02:06

pretty much the whole table it's

02:07

important to start with that now that

02:09

doesn't have to be perfect it does help

02:11

if you are next thing for this I want to

02:12

cut it to rough size I'm pretty tall so

02:15

we're going to need to do 32 in size so

02:17

the kicker here is that I don't know

02:19

like whatever this measurement is it

02:21

could be 12 it could be 20 in my eyes I

02:23

just have no idea looks like we just

02:25

need to flatten the whole slab wasn't

02:27

anticipating that I thought we'd be able

02:28

to cut it down to a more manageable size

02:29

when things are larger they're

02:30

considerably more difficult to flatten

02:32

but I guess it kind of is what it is I'm

02:34

going to clean up these edges a little

02:35

bit and then we'll get this sucker on

02:36

the CNC I guess we'll figure that math

02:37

out after it's flat so as it stands this

02:39

will be the second largest slab we've

02:42

ever

02:43

flattened you're you're

02:46

aome I love my floor I'm ready to get

02:50

rid of the whole thing just make

02:51

everyone suffer and have shin splints

02:54

going to his spine out of his

02:57

ass see I can see it's humped here here

03:00

like this thing has to be perfectly flat

03:02

since we have it even though the other

03:03

side I don't like the look of it as much

03:05

we're going to go check that one see if

03:06

it's got less of a hump damn it it's

03:09

considerably flatter hey Chris before

03:11

you do anything else come here positive

03:12

work environment this one's pretty flat

03:15

except for the ends there's no big hump

03:16

in the middle this one does seem better

03:18

than the other one okay let's take that

03:19

one off of the

03:20

CNC put this one on

03:24

typical one two let's uh put this one on

03:27

the CNC now

03:30

so this side is so high I'm going to try

03:32

to cut some of it out and then kind of

03:34

gauge how much wobble we have in it even

03:36

hanging it off a little bit it's it's

03:38

considerably less than what it was just

03:39

see how much see how high this thing is

03:41

still we're like an inch off the table

03:43

here I guess what we're going to do is

03:45

start adding some shims I'll just cut

03:47

that side as well and then maybe that'll

03:49

help take a little bit of that play out

03:50

of it I can already tilt it if I just

03:53

jerk it off I mean sand it I mean c it

03:56

down a little bit what did he say it

03:58

might help not be so atic and if you

04:00

look it up in the brochure this is

04:02

exactly how the neelson wants you're

04:03

using their hand BLS eat the dick thanks

04:07

for the help here for it still not great

04:10

start by flattening those parts and this

04:12

thing's almost 3 in thick so we've got a

04:14

whole inch to play with and it's 2 and 2

04:16

and 3/4 as long as we're like 2 in inch

04:19

and 3/4 it'll still look

04:23

badass we're flat or as flat as I want

04:26

to go we're right around 2 in which I

04:28

think is pretty good that's what she

04:30

said now for all the crazy got to

04:32

find Center going to figure out where

04:33

I'm going to do the curve marks we need

04:35

to figure out the depth of the curve how

04:37

I'm going to cut those and then build a

04:39

jig in order to do it at 90Β° perfectly

04:41

and also build a box in order to steam

04:44

the part we're bending yay okay so we

04:47

need to prove this concept and by that I

04:51

mean we've got something the internet

04:53

told us should work and you can get this

04:55

curve spacing calculator by Googling it

04:57

we put all of our stuff in test it on

05:00

here to do so this might as well be

05:03

written in Spanish they're using 30

05:05

seconds which which is just great the

05:08

reality is I don't think that those 30

05:11

seconds are going to make a huge

05:12

difference you can have a little bit of

05:14

Blade deflection in your cut and that in

05:16

itself will deflect it by 30 second from

05:19

time to time so like I guess we'll see

05:21

this thing has like no play in it let's

05:23

throw a clamp on see if that

05:26

helps okay it's bending twisting the

05:29

crazy I've got shooting out vibes going

05:31

on right now Jo what do you think if it

05:34

does shoot out at least I feel super

05:35

safe and I look like an absolute stud

05:37

Rock in my shop Shades if you want to

05:39

support the channel grab yourself a pair

05:41

we've sold thousands and people are

05:42

absolutely loving them like this dude

05:44

and this person so check them out shop

05:46

Shades available now shipping now

05:48

appreciate all of you that have already

05:49

bought a pair but buy more we need that

05:51

outside to outside to be 90 and you can

05:54

see here it's

05:55

not did I do all the cuts at ass I

05:58

missed a cut oh no damn it if it's just

06:01

one cut that'd be nice cuz then we know

06:02

the math now we just got to figure out

06:04

how to fix the Gap problem back to the

06:06

tabletop for that last cut so I'm way

06:07

too impatient for water to boil even

06:09

though it's boiling and so I went ahead

06:11

and I redid everything we actually

06:13

cracked the wood on the bottom but look

06:14

at this they're both coming in at 90

06:15

that sweep just doesn't look like it but

06:17

that extra cut did

06:19

it we figured out where the curves are

06:22

going to start they're going to end

06:23

we're going 33 in off of the center line

06:25

and then we'll drop both sides off and

06:27

from the looks of it I think I could

06:29

just keep the cuts simple the bottom box

06:31

will be 48 in so I'm going to do 48 the

06:34

width of our curvs is little under 19 in

06:38

according to this math so I'll go 24 so

06:41

we can steam a little bit on the outside

06:43

more or less I'm just going to take some

06:44

construction grade material I'm going to

06:45

cut that bottom plate I'm going to cut

06:46

the same thing for a top cover and then

06:49

cut some strips and build a bottom this

06:50

should go pretty

06:53

quick my construction technique for this

06:55

is simply wing it because if you look at

06:57

any steam bending boxes they're all made

06:59

for like strips of stuff not massive

07:02

slabs so I think by just building a box

07:04

should get me most of the way there like

07:06

that we're not going to be able to get

07:07

like perfect Gap filling but we wrap it

07:11

in blankets and the steam should kind of

07:14

stay on that bottom piece once this is

07:17

flipped over and I should be able to cap

07:19

it so all right the next phase is let's

07:21

open up the steamer and see what kind of

07:23

hole we need to make the old steamer the

07:25

Amazon special here I'm actually excited

07:28

cuz I've really wanted to make make

07:29

myself a fly fishing net using steam

07:31

bending for a long time since I bought

07:33

this for this project if I ever give

07:34

free time what the hell is that I can do

07:36

that cut a hole I'm going to just guess

07:38

and do it in the

07:40

center what the

07:43

hell there we go I'm pretty confident in

07:46

like all of the random crap I've done so

07:48

far you just watched me make some giant

07:50

90Β° clamping calls Chris is printing out

07:53

internal clamping calls so once we get

07:55

it up we'll be able to put this and then

07:57

clamp this to these so we can make sure

08:00

we're perfectly 90 and it'll have enough

08:02

room for that radius so we'll be able to

08:04

get close to 90 as possible that's my

08:06

biggest

08:08

concern just be a bear okay I marked all

08:12

my lines they're hard to see on camera

08:15

but I marked them with a knife that way

08:17

they didn't rub off and it let me get a

08:19

little bit more precise I'll use a

08:22

pencil on my cut line and then I'll put

08:26

my track right on the cut line and then

08:28

make sure I'm taking the line every

08:29

single time and that should get me

08:31

pretty darn close to Center this one's

08:33

not for the faint of heart I am shaking

08:36

inside I've got the depth set locked in

08:38

place our first curve cut this is about

08:40

all I can do nothing left to do

08:44

it gosh it just it just has me so

08:48

concerned I got to do it again I just

08:50

got to check the depth again I know I

08:52

literally just said it but I don't know

08:54

might have bumped something

08:56

316 let's go you little little you

08:58

little

09:12

boy now I cut

09:15

one before I get too far I'm a bit

09:17

worried if that's 2 in overall it should

09:20

be two and I think 136 deep I think I'm

09:24

a bit shallow and I think that's because

09:26

this end isn't as thick as two damn it

09:29

cuz I'm looking at this Edge and I'm was

09:30

like man that's about a/ in and I'm off

09:32

that distance see that but the problem

09:34

is what's it going to be on this side

09:36

damel Damu inconsistencies I'm like I'm

09:39

like very close to just messing

09:41

everything up like really easily okay

09:44

right here this slab is 1.96 which is

09:47

perfect exactly what we should be at and

09:49

right here we're at 2.03 my concern

09:51

about I mean if you look at this edge

09:53

here this is a 1. 1825 we're like 1 and

09:56

78 here and we're like one in I don't

10:00

know 31 30 seconds here so at this point

10:04

I'm not as concerned as it going too

10:05

deep so I need to be 1.

10:08

18125 that's 1 and

10:10

1316 and we're supposed to be 316

10:13

according to our thing there you know

10:15

one good thing about festal is those are

10:17

e so if I just come down one

10:22

[Music]

10:27

more okay I'm I'm good with that we're

10:29

going to go 1 and 3/4 cuz once I get

10:31

over to here and it material is a little

10:33

bit thicker will be perfect got to send

10:40

it we're going to start steaming one

10:43

side no I have no clue if this is going

10:45

to work cuz we have yet to put Steam in

10:47

the box so those guys had blankets over

10:49

top of it for the sake of what we're

10:51

doing if we just kind of like stuff the

10:54

blankets around it I don't know I'm

10:55

making it up as iing go guys give me

10:57

some confidence we're only a bunch of

10:58

grown men

11:00

here we're going to let this sit says an

11:03

hour per inch I don't think we got to go

11:05

that long we'll probably go just an hour

11:06

we'll pop it open and get ready to bend

11:08

it I've got some custom squares Chris

11:10

made some custom clamping calls now we

11:12

wait and see how done we actually

11:14

are nothing's like pissing out it's been

11:17

an hour it's pissing out over there just

11:19

as you said that it wasn't doing this

11:20

like 10 minutes I mean these are look at

11:21

these look at this steam hopefully that

11:23

helped we just put this on there for

11:25

weight if if you watch the channel you

11:28

know I basically said that this thing is

11:29

a paper weight it's hot be

11:31

careful um we want to be pretty quick

11:34

here so we need the square calls also

11:37

probably should be closer to the end of

11:39

the table Yeah Chris you can pick it up

11:42

and then I can move the table up and we

11:44

can slide it off and bend her up sounds

11:47

good these need to dry so we can do it

11:51

again that one's wet this the first I've

11:54

never seen a steamy slap don't burn

11:56

yourself watch your face

11:59

interesting interesting I don't know if

12:02

that's like the chemicals coming out of

12:04

the plywood or what the situation is but

12:06

it's not as bendy as I was thinking it's

12:08

going to should would be this sucks okay

12:10

let's um yeah we do got to try to send

12:12

it oh boy we got to go we got to go pick

12:15

that up it all the way to the end with

12:18

the box with the box there you go okay

12:20

you grab the box I got the

12:27

slab okay oh

12:32

mother where's the squares ah clamp that

12:36

all right yeah I need you to clamp it to

12:38

the table the slab to the table use the

12:42

table

12:43

clamps and then we got we got to

12:48

hurry so they're

12:51

longer so you can grab clamp the one on

12:55

that side Chris is in full panic mode

12:57

having no idea what he's doing you can

12:59

put a clamp on without the call on the

13:00

front far side of the bottom clamp this

13:03

is like as far as it's going Joe I need

13:06

you to grab another big Square hey pull

13:09

come here bud Chris is obsessed with

13:10

theing call the Call's not going to work

13:12

as well well the call is going to it's

13:15

not you need

13:17

both okay grab this help them we going

13:21

to get all this clamped I can see

13:22

why there's so many dudes in the

13:27

video bullet the squ what's going on

13:31

talk to me is it not going up is it

13:33

going up anyone it's going up

13:36

anyone I think somehow the math got

13:38

messed up on this thing cuz it's like

13:40

not

13:41

going we're losing time we got to be

13:44

faster urgency I know both of you don't

13:46

like the Urgent it's hard for both of

13:48

you in tandem clamp there we go hold up

13:52

hold up okay good we're twisted so that

13:55

I'm my biggest fears are coming true

13:57

probably needed more Steam

14:00

where are the rest of our big body

14:03

squeeze

14:04

clamps I wanted that outside piece in

14:06

there this is

14:08

insane here's my butthole hold on I got

14:11

this clamp's going to cut my leg off let

14:13

go

14:15

Chris it's kind ofing working it's kind

14:18

of working why'd you both get on the

14:20

same side you

14:24

goobers it's like barely out I don't

14:27

know if there's much as all cuz we T

14:29

touching all on this interior on both

14:32

sides also this is just for drying we

14:35

got to glue it tomorrow now I had this

14:37

Epiphany let's hear it yeah we needed it

14:40

to be a 8 in Blade it was it was 0 or

14:45

like 108 so it was a little shorten that

14:48

compounds against 20 something Cuts I

14:50

will say this Chris I asked you to

14:52

measure I did and I told you the

14:54

measurement and you said it was the same

14:55

as the table saw yeah it is well the

14:58

table saw was right yeah but that

14:59

calculation count for a 0.125 thickness

15:02

blade is our tabletop blade not 0.125

15:05

point I told you that you didn't tell me

15:07

yeah I did

15:09

.18 this will work so I'm I'm fine with

15:13

it my butt holes in my throat so we're

15:15

going to let this thing dry overnight

15:17

we'll come back tomorrow get a game plan

15:18

for gluing and also do the other side

15:20

got to be honest though for a complete

15:22

test and just shooting the moon not bad

15:24

we broke all of our calls so we're going

15:25

to glue those up double Lam them for

15:27

tomorrow's but so far so good okay

15:30

Moment of Truth Now the intent here

15:32

don't forget is I'm using my lack of

15:35

knowledge for steam bending and then

15:37

applying it to a ridiculous circumstance
