Woodworking: Making an Adjustable Sofa Table

The "wow" your dad gives you at the end, and the look on your face, says it all. Pride. Joy. Love. Appreciation. What more can a kid want when making something for their parents? That and maybe wood worms in their living room.

Mr. Fisher your video on showing how two build two different ways. One way for the seasoned woodworker and one for the limited tool woodworker is something other channel makers should do. Well done sir! God Bless.

When your Dad says "Wow!" twice I almost lost it. What a wonderful gift for a son to give his parents. Well done indeed sir.

This looks like a great design! and it was very nice to include a method for people who don't have so many power tools! I think i'm going to try my hand at this, but maybe replacing the Hole&Dowel stopper with something closer to a clamp and rail. (the slider board having a cut down the middle, and the hole being replaced with a screw-clamp and a board on the other side to clamp the slider with.)

My wife had a C-section and she is stuck to the couch for a couple weeks as she recovers. I was wondering how to make her life easier and then I remembered this video and I remembered how I loved the design and the accessibility it provided. Thank you for making this video and the table.

Your parents were the highlight!!!

This is beautiful. And funny. I wasn't expecting the Lionel Ritchie Commodors, Jherri Curl comment!

The reaction of your parents at the end made me cry. My Dad passed in March, just before my 30th birthday. I inherited most of his old tools and when my husband and I got our home, the garage became my wood shop sanctuary that always makes me feel closer to him. Your Dad’s reaction reminded me of the numerous times I saw pride in my Dad’s eyes for my accomplishments. Thank you for this, and give your folks a hug for me.

As someone who almost only watches Youtube videos for my "television" entertainment, you have some of the best quality videos in the woodworking area. Your videos are engaging, and informative with an awesome sense of humor in them. You bring beautiful work feasible even to us newer woodworkers. I hope you take pride in your work as you offer amazing content and I cannot wait to see more! Keep up the awesome work!

I am a floral designer and a hobby woodworker on my days off. When I hand a bride her bridal bouquet or just a customer I made an arrangement for and hear "wow" and see the eyes lighting up that is almost better than a paycheck (not quite but almost - still gotta make a living and pay the rent/mortgage) Due to that darn corona virus I am not working at the moment and was working only part time anyway since I am retired (just can't keep my hands off the flowers) but when your dad said "wow" I totally understood how you must have felt at that moment.

You think about other people, you are really caring. Thank you for showing the two ways. Your parents must be really proud of you.

Everytime I see you interact with your parents, I tear up. Your dad is clearly so very proud of you.

The fact that you did another, more simpler build is so sweet. I want to build this for my mum, and I was racking my brain for ways to only use my tiny drill press and circular saw, than you went and did it all for me, thank you so much Mr Fisher.

I love that you do the outtakes. Shows people that things do happen while working. Watching these types of videos, people think that woodworking is always flawless and nothing ever goes wrong. Stuff happens and figuring out how to still make it work is one of my favorite parts of woodworking. Awesome table. Your dad looked very pleased.

They're powder post beetle larva. Lyctid is the species since they infest hardwood (broadleaf) woods such as walnut, ash, oak. They can survive in wood for years before emerging as adults.

Best humor on YouTube period. Love it

just wanted to add that I love the fact that you showed how to make the plywood one at the end. I don't have all the tools you have to make the first one (which is very gorgeous by the way), but I can make the plywood one. You sir are great, and I love the out takes at the end. It shows that you make mistakes too. Thank you for all of your videos. They are great.

Awesome build, you made my anxiety go way up with that small miter cut. 😂🤣

Fisher, what's so lovely about your channel is that you don't just put your shop or your projects on display, but your bare naked humanity too. I've seen you do it in different videos in different ways, sometimes it's with your kids (I'm thinking specifically of the putting green video, how it opens on this heart melting home video of your son sinking his first putt), in this one it's your parents. It's hard seeing our folks get old, but not only are you helping them out with a beautiful piece of furniture, you're setting a great example of what a son, a husband, and a father should be..... You're vulnerable, you're authentic, and to top it all off you do beautiful work. Bless up brother and thanks for making the world a better place for those who have the great fortune of encountering you.

Seeing your Dad at the end 😭😭😭 I love how much he loved it in that clip
