This is pretty awesome
. Would like to see more of this if you don't mind sharing as you go.

Well.....I go pretty damn slow!! Lol. But I'll take more pics and maybe make a thread. I'm learning as I go. Just decided it's be a cool hobby, so I bought some tools, a block of wood and watched some YouTube videos.

How did people learn new hobbies before the internet
. Thats exactly what I did with woodworking about a year or 2 ago now.

Same here, I've only really been doing for a year or so, and all self taught thanks to youtube

I had a thread on these a while back, made my own inline spinners and attempted to make an inline buzzbait. I've only had a chance to fish with them once though, not sold on if the buzzbaits will catch fish and the blades on the inline spinners are one size too small, going to order a pack of #4s and start over.

I just turned my grandmas old console tv into a fish tank. Didn't necessarily build it, but it was a fun project

They were born with the ability to think and make due with what one had.

Took an old pole barn repaired and customized it for my farm equipment.

The pictures of the shuffleboard make me want one... Watched some videos and yeah no way I'll be able to build one anytime soon, and damn they are expensive.

Just getting into some wood working.
Farmhouse table for our dining room.
Farmhouse table with extensions for the model home.
Little shelf my wife wanted.
Current project, cutting board. Cherry, maple, walnut, purple heart, and yellow heart. Too cheap to buy bar clamps
Going end grain, should look like this.

Looks great? What kind of joinery did you use on the table top? I'm always curious to see how all these tops made with pocket screws on the breadboard ends hold up to the wood expansion.

Looks great boog. So how did you attach the legs to that table in your dining room?
I've been wanting to build a 4 let table but was scared they wouldn't be strong enough.

I just use a bunch of pocket holes. Like I said just getting started. I don't know a great deal about expansion and all of that but the tables are built inside and remain inside. Haven't seen any issues yet and it's been several months.
The bread boards do make me nervous with just pocket holes. I add several extra for support.

The base is built completely separate from the top then attached with pocket holes as well. This is the best pic I have of the base. I will say it's sturdy as hell.
I loosely followed these plans.

Update on the cutting board. Got her all chopped up again and ready to be glued. Note to self, the depth of the table saw blade matters a lot. I've had it for a total of 3 days though so live and learn.

I gotcha. What Im more concerned with is the the breadboard. Wood expands across the grain so your table top will want to expand width wise, but being that the bread boards are screwed to them, they won't allow the expansion. The reason I'm asking is because I'm also fairly new to wood working and I'm trying to do as much research as possible so I can build a farm table also.

The bread boards tables that I've built I did mortise and tenon joints for the bread board with enough room for movement.
I've done 2 so far and neither have had any issues.

OK I gotcha. That what I was wondering. That's the proper way. I see all these Ana white plans and DIY'ers just attaching them with pocket holes and I've always wondered how well they held up.

That is cool b/c everybody says they are gonna something with those, but you actually did.
