Mr. Build It

What happens here

This instructional video guides viewers through building a console table using rough-sawn ash lumber. The process includes milling the lumber, edge-gluing boards to create wider panels, preparing various types of strong, hidden joints (Domino and dowel joinery for the main frame, and pocket hole joints for the shelf), assembling the structure, routing the edges, and applying a natural wood stain for a professional finish. The goal is to replicate an expensive retail table at a fraction of the cost.
