MGTOW weekend project- Quilted cherry and curly maple end table

jkarovskaya · 2018-07-15T11:46:53+00:00

The table top is a rare form of American cherry where the wood grain is both curly and quilted. I've been saving this board for about 15 years, was time to use if for something. The leg inlays are curly maple, as is drawer front, which is banded with African padauk. Finish is tung oil followed by a beeswax and orange oil polish.

Howdy, fellow MGTOW woodworker!

Great work on the table. I like the wood combinations.

jkarovskaya · 2018-07-15T12:21:47+00:00

That looks highly professional bro. Are you a carpenter?

Whitegamerinc_Twitch · 2018-07-15T12:00:30+00:00

Wow! That's some imoressive work man!

MadPreacher1AD · 2018-07-15T12:07:49+00:00

That is really nice looking. You did a wonderful job on it.

King_Ov_Hell · 2018-07-15T19:51:11+00:00

I thought it was a rendered table at first hahah. Good job, high quality

FangoFett · 2018-07-15T13:29:21+00:00

That’s nice!

MGTOW_monk_mastery · 2018-07-15T15:13:39+00:00

Man that looks INCREDIBLE. I love the aesthetics. If that was in my own house I'd be proud of it every day, even if I just bought it rather than making it. That strip of lighter wood down the legs is giving me goosebumps. I just love anything with beautiful design. True artwork and craftsmanship right here. Post your next one too, please!!

Rodion-Raskolnikov · 2018-07-15T15:41:09+00:00

Nice work sir! Always good to see a man free to apply his skills to projects he is free to work on. If you were married she would have told you to throw away that “old piece of rubbish wood” because it “gets in my way”. Or, had you kept it in the garage for a rainy day, she would have seen you getting ready to start work on it and came in with the “hey! I thought you were going to help redecorate my sister’s bathroom. You’re so selfish “.

BrownMayonnaise · 2018-07-15T16:32:11+00:00

Gorgeous table, really well done. Worth saving that board for 15 years. I play the bass...you'll see beautiful instruments with quilt, flame, or curly tops. All different hardwoods and even African species.

Never thought I would be that guy appreciating the shit out of wood, but here I am.

mordanus · 2018-07-15T16:59:46+00:00

Damn man. That's really nice. Your hobby looks fun as hell

nshaz · 2018-07-15T17:03:27+00:00

I do general contracting/remodeling and can install plumbing, electrical lines, lay tile, trim work, and drywall, but I am blown away by work like this. This stuff touches me in the right way.

Amazing stuff! Hope it finds a great home, whether it's yours or a different place.

BlackVale · 2018-07-15T17:45:33+00:00

Looks amazing. I'm hoping to build a keyboard desk with my dad in the coming months. Hopefully it will look as good

Jlax1027 · 2018-07-16T01:56:39+00:00

Nice the top is extra beautiful loookin

jkarovskaya · 2018-07-15T12:36:57+00:00

Looks awesome!

jkarovskaya · 2018-07-15T13:51:32+00:00

You the man 😎

Lunchmeat505 · 2018-07-15T13:54:49+00:00

It looks fake in a good way. Not sure if it is camera quality, and lighting. Or something else. It sorta is messing with my mind.

jkarovskaya · 2018-07-15T13:55:06+00:00

That really is gorgeous but for some crazy reason if a black woman who was a transgender anti trump activist made it she could sell it for $5000 just based on the current political climate... some Hollywood liberal would make it a “must have furniture piece”.

Maybe that’s what you need to do find a transgender black woman (chick with dick or dude with tits) who hates Trump and make a secret agreement that she’ll pretend that she makes these and you split the cost with them and you both make a shit load of cash 💰 💵 💰

Eidolon3436 · 2018-07-15T14:02:03+00:00

Straight Killin it mah dude.

Keep on till ya die!

bkrugby78 · 2018-07-15T14:22:00+00:00

NICE!

jkarovskaya · 2018-07-15T14:30:45+00:00

Honestly I’m a big fan of making your own furniture, accessories, and what have you not.

I like the clean and simple design. Looks visually pleasing.

Perhaps you’re maybe thinking of decorating your home with a lot of stuff that you made like this? (Cause you totally should in my opinion), you got talent and it would probably feel super rewarding to do so. Of course also make your home beautiful and awesome ASF! ;)

You definitely inspired me to get off my ass and try to look up guides on how to make some “how-to do it yourself” awesomeness.

Also can you imagine if you had some whining bitch around you? She’d probably disturb the project every damn second of it. Saying it’s dumb, a waste of time and tell you to go watch the titanic with her as your life sink away like that ship. Thank goodness you don’t have to deal with that. MGTOW saves lifes.

Stay safe~ Go MGTOW~

Don't know anything but I think it looks great too!

AppropriateNerd · 2018-07-15T15:30:43+00:00

Can you please show some detail how the legs are attached? I made a table myself, but I am not happy with the legs.

NotMyWomen · 2018-07-15T15:37:10+00:00

Did you have to stain it and coat it as well?

I fucking hated dealing with polyurethane.

TheSpin1 · 2018-07-15T15:41:03+00:00

Nice.

This photo looks like a screenshot of a video game.

488Koala · 2018-07-15T16:56:52+00:00

Great looking table

TryDoingSomethingNew · 2018-07-15T16:59:16+00:00

10/10 would table with :)

Stahlboden · 2018-07-15T17:03:34+00:00

I was always fascinated over ability to create great things out of mere raw materials. I don't have time to do something like this right now, but I hope one day I will find plenty of time for my own hobbies. Good job!

st-johnson · 2018-07-15T17:23:45+00:00

Very sweet ,

sidyboi94 · 2018-07-15T17:24:06+00:00

Is that you Ron Swanson?

XavierMalory · 2018-07-15T19:18:04+00:00

Really like the style you did for the legs. Nicely done.

michaelmindset · 2018-07-15T20:58:26+00:00

Cha Ching, you have a business my friend

thecherry94 · 2018-07-15T21:29:39+00:00

Looks very nice! I would buy this.

justine20908 · 2018-07-15T21:43:43+00:00

Holy crap that looks awesome

jkarovskaya · 2018-07-15T22:57:03+00:00

First I thought "Year right, nicely rendered" but the details view of the drawer corrected me.

Nice work, especially that you did a real connection with the drawer and not just only nails and glue.

Rand_Paul_2016_ · 2018-07-15T14:01:03+00:00

The top just looks like regular old polished plywood.... everything else looks nice
