Bending wood for , tricks and techniques.

Bent Wood Table // Bent Lamination // Dining Table… In this video, I decide to bend some wood. There are various ways to accomplish bent lamination, such as steam bending, kerf cutting or the method I used which is to cut a series of thin wood laminations to bend around a form and glue them all together. It’s a time consuming task, but well worth the effort. A bent lamination detail adds nice visual interest and can really enhance the appeal and value of a piece of furniture. It opens up a whole new design aesthetic to incorporate into your furniture designs. I’m certainly NOT an expert, but I think I learned quite a bit on this project to help me on any future projects that will require bending lamination to give a bent wood look. Well, I probably learned even more because I had to build it TWICE!! Stay tuned to the end of the video to find out why I had to build two tables. #bentwoodtable #bentlamination #kjsawdust #bendingwood ➤ Join my Modern Wood Academy and build a Modern Walnut Console Table along with me: ➤ Sign up for my FREE 3-part Video Series: 0:00 Intro and bloopers 0:31 Building the forms 2:51 Re-sawing the bent laminations 4:29 Building the center post 5:50 Building the top and bottom sections of the base 8:23 Pre-bending the laminations 9:19 Final modifications to the bending form 9:47 Bending and gluing up the first bent lamination 11:47 Trimming the laminations to final size 13:26 First dry fit 13:32 Fitting the curved laminations to the center post and base 14:16 Installing the recessed adjustable feet 15:10 Hardware installation and final details 16:09 Final surface prep and finish application 17:37 Why I built 2 tables 18:26 Final glamour shots and outro ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ➤ You can now support me on Patreon! ➤ Woodpeckers Tools: ➤ Instagram: ➤ Nick Barboza’s Instagram: ➤ ShopSounds Podcast: ➤ TikTok: ➤ Website: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ➤Additional videos for bending wood: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ➤ My Tools (Woodworking & Audio/Video): ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ➤ Affiliate Links for Tools/Products used in this build: Infinity Tools Dadonator Blade: 36-inch Irwin Quick Grip Clamps: Gorilla Glue Polyurethane Glue: Rubio Monocoat PURE: ➤ For all the songs I used, Check out Epidemic Sound!
