How To Make A Shaker Bedside Table

In this video I show you how to build a Shaker style bedside table from Red Oak. These could also serve as end tables in a living space. I used mortise and tenon joinery as well as through dovetails for the drawer. Stained with Gunstock Oak and finished with shellac. They measured about 17"x17" and 16" tall.

Nice add with the little one. My baby daughter will be 40 in July. Her father's day card this year thanked me for all that I taught her. Your reward is coming over and over. Nice table too ;)

Nice work! I made four similar of my own design in clear Fir and enjoyed watching your process. They are a nice addition to our home.

Just a little tip - volume down the music a bit, so we can hear you better :)

This just popped up in my feed. Glad it did. Well done, bud. They came out great!

Beautiful work. Wish you still made things.

Im a little worried that there wasnt room for bottom shelf to expand. It may end up blowing that table apart. Otherwise really nice job!! It looks great

I'm sorry to see that you're no longer making content on youtube. That's a beautiful table and I liked the video.

Thanks for taking the time to video your work and post. I like the relaxed pace which you explain.

These turned out great man! I love the gunstock oak color. I havn't had much experience with wipe on shellac. I'm going to give it a shot because this looks really nice. Very precise and professional. Nice work!

we'd be able to hear you much better if you'd illuminate the background music or whatever that is. 2:05

all your videos would be better without the music

You have a great personal narrator voice. Very calming. Looking forward to trying a shaker project. - BTW in the video title you may have intended "Bedside". just sayin'

You are the only woodworker on YouTube I have ever seen who uses the table saw correctly by turning the blade off after every single cut before removing the cut wood

You deserve more than only106 likes, Holy Moly !!! Beautiful Job...

Thanks for sharing. I'm in the process of building a very similar table and was looking for ideas of how to attach the shelf. Do you have any concerns about wood movement with the shelf fixed to the legs like that?

Good job, everyone does things differently, just do it your way and you'll be happy!!!

I know this is a long shot, but any chance you would have the blueprints for this nightstand?
