Here’s a quick update on my latest project – a coopered oak coffee table. This was my first time trying coopering, but by carefully setting up the table saw for precise angle cuts, the process went pretty smoothly.
One key takeaway: always use cauls when gluing up wide panels to prevent cupping. It’s something I knew but easily overlooked in the chaos of a glue-up.
Huge thanks to @giles for all the help along the way – his knowledge was invaluable.
I’ll be posting better photos on Instagram soon, so check them out if you’re interested @__andrewbryce
