How to make a simple DIY table out of old wooden floor boards

 

























Tools and materials:

Jointer planer

Circular saw

Circular saw guide rail

Speed square

Miter box

Hand saw

Belt sander

Countersink bits

Chisel set

Bandsaw

Table saw

Block plane

Cordless Impact Driver

Cordless drill

Random orbit sander

Air compressor, nail and staple gun kit


In this video I make a table out of a piece of an old wooden floor. The floor was made out of pine. I also used some spruce to make the legs. 


This was actually a piece of floor that was removed so we could install an interior ladder.


I begun by taking the pieces apart using a leaver. I then had to glue a few pieces which I broke during the process.


Next I planned and cleaned the back cleats. 


I re-glued the rabbeted pieces in sections. The last section was longer than any clamp I had so I glued some wooden blocks to clamp the pieces together. 


Next I cut the table top to it’s final size with my circular saw and a guide rail. 


I then glued and nailed two new cleats in place. 


I added trim to hide the end grain. I glued and nailed it in place and then I used a block plane to make it flush. 


Next I sanded the table top. I also rounded the edges with a block plane. 


Next I made the legs and the horizontal cleat. 


I then sanded everything and my table was ready. 


I am really happy with the result. I hope the grain will do well enough with expansion and contraction. But that was it. See you soon with a new project video.
