What if you put them on a nice piece of plywood decking, weighed down and glued, clamped etc, Then fix the top on the decking if you like to dance or flip it to have your almost perfect top ready for next step
It's a cool idea, but look like it's way more work.
Excellent process! It would make using different contrasts of wood, eg. maple to walnut, more intriguing and beautiful. Keep up the good work! Cheers from Canada!
Excelente forma de trabajar la madera, te felicito. Congratulations Laura, I love your work
Wait a minute or two. OK. ?!?!?!, OK. WOW, Laura, I have never seen any woodworker or maker do something like this!!! 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪. Woman you are fantastic!!!
"Solution that makes things quicker" ... Gets out hand plane... Yeah okay buddy
Der beste DIY Kanal, der mir bisher über'n Weg gelaufen ist 😀 Respekt!
So clever. Much cheaper to build. Materials and tools wise. And it looks even better. Perfect. Thanks and congrats
Super cool solution and truly unique result! Always awesome to witness your creativity.
I will try this , i New follower from gabon but i dont know if i can do this with gabon wood .
your hands do some great thinking I love your videos
I like the low wastage of wood too. Looks great as well.
There's some flooring that is made using this technique. www.bole.eu/ archimag.de/magazin/2009/geschwungene-massivholzdielen/
Damn!! That is even more beautiful than straight edges!! I am doing this forever! Thanks!! Brilliant idea
I saw “tips from a shipwright” use this method to join boards for a boat build, very clever
Does your bandsaw leave a glue ready surface? I only have a cheap ryobi bandsaw at the moment, but even with a tiny blade the edges have tons of saw marks that wouldn’t be suitable for a glue joint. I love your videos btw! I hope to meet Schmuto one day!
I saw tim sway do that with pallets and a jig saw.

Laura Kampf, you are amazing! It should be even stronger as glue joints are following the grain/less joint tension. And super organic. Genius!
Laura, your innovation is utterly amazing!
This is absolutely brilliant. I am in the process of buying tools to set up a wood/metal workshop and you just saved me from buying an expensive planer :). What's more, the expensive planer also has different power requirements which none of the other machines have and this necessitated additional money spend upfront to upgrade the power station and meters. Thank you for this idea :). I will buy a bandsaw instead of a planer now ;)
Awesome!
¡Qué fineza y elegancia! Your artistic and sustainable aproach to wood is impresive.
Cool idea
Just discovered your channel. Love your stuff
Woouu!! That amazing work!! So smooth table 😍
Super cool idea....looks amazing!
I enjoy watching you work!! This was an awesome idea!!!
So smart.
Could you add the supports - lock them down on the material then go through the planner? You killed it good job!!
Beautiful! Love it... But you didn't convince me it was less work... 😜
needless to say, I have subscribed. Excellent technique. I've used this method for smaller pieces but never ever thought to apply it to a table top. The final product is pretty sweet. I'll have to try this and see how it comes out.
I used to do this very same thing with a router with a bump to the side every so often is like leaving locks so it doesn’t slide out of alignment when gluing 🤷♂️
Great video and idea. Think I will have to use that technique with some narrow slabs I have stored for a table top project
Super Video, tolle Idee 💡 - keep up the good work 🤙🏼 - liebe Grüsse aus 🇨🇭
kudos on possible starting a new joint look.. Live edge has become huge; nonstraight joints could be the next thing; much more organic looking, maybe do same but don't cut off live edge... (Little side bar; notice you didn't spread glue out after applying it to edges like so many seem to think is mandatory... if the glue is squeezing out of the joint its guarantied to be coating the surface 100%. You could go one step further and just lay a straight line of glue; again if it is squeezing out on both sides of joint you have 100% coverage
Totally awesome, looks so much more organic. Im going to try this right away
Thank you for sharing your brilliant ideas, Laura, subscribed.
I do nearly the same thing to integrate different types of wood in my cutting boards. If you have a good sharp blade on your bandsaw it works beautifully.
I'm bout to have to try this! Great Idea!
Genial!
that is ridiculously cool. As I was watching the edges go together I was thinking it just looked so....right! Wood isn't square. Cutting it to highlight the natural curve of the live edge is amazing.
Awesome that was cool
Looks like lots more work than the conventional method? It does allow the wavy joints that is cleaver
This is BRILLIANT.
Cool idea
Hammer! Total schön! So ein selbstgebauter Tisch ist noch mein Traum!
Is she a sister of Drew Berrymore?
I have ALWAYS wondered if this technique would work. So glad to see you try it. Beautiful work! 😊👍👍
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE??? This was a wonderful inspiration. Even though I don't have a 30" bandsaw (I could have but it was too tall for my garage), I figured out the "jointing" with a jigsaw as you were bandsawing (long jigsaw blades I already have -- bought in Berlin). The router/planer was something I knew about and had seen once in a furniture shop in Louisiana but I like your simple jig. As soon as I am done with a bunch of other projects (table saw rebuild, new router table...) I will try that technique to make some breadboards -- which are really just miniature tabletops. Lord knows I have enough wood out in the garage... This video popped up in my suggestion list this evening and I am very glad it did.
Loved it!
gute Idee, ich bezweifle aber ob es weniger arbeit ist, trotzdem, gutes video
Quedo re joya
good idea but also looks like a lot of work...not everyone has a good bandsaw like yours
@Laura Kampf oh believe me I do , I'm all about make things work ....
If all you are looking for is problems, all you are going to see is problems. Try to look for solutions-it’s a lot more fun!
muy bien!
Five years? Are your videos all in English? This is the first of yours I've seen and I subscribed. After 40 years of woodworking I find your approach is entirely fresh and look forward to your other content. You know, no matter what you choose for music you won't please everyone. This music bugged me after a minute or two so I muted the sound until you were obviously talking again. Annoying music is no improvement over the noise of a router. Never-the-less, I'm glad to have "discovered" you and wish you the best.
This is such an interesting technique. I wonder how the wood would react over time. The cycles of cold and hot, dry and humid. Would the curved surface make for a tighter bond between boards or would it cause more splitting? Congrats on the creative technique!
You are freaking awesome 👏!!!!
👍🏻🤩😎...clever and cool...
Cool idea, looks great, but It’s not any less work.
The final result is beautiful, especially the lines between slabs! But planing step should be faster with the planer, don't you think? Then you glue them together with biscuits for example
I love the trick with the mass on top of the sander!
Durch den Bandsägenschnitt sind die Fügekanten beim Fügen systembedingt nicht absolut dicht. Dies sieht man auch in den Nahaufnahmen. Wenn man es wirklich perfekt machen will, dann nach der Methode des geschweiften Fügens mit den entsprechenden Fräsern und Schablonen. Außerdem ist das Planfräsen nun auch aufwendig. Da richte ich lieber die die einzelnen Lamellen ab, als das ich die komplette Tischplatte zum Schluss planfräsen muss. Die Span- und vor allem Staubbelastung ist hierbei auch deutlich höher, als bei der klassischen Variante. Hier also von "perfect" und "easy way" zu sprechen, ist dann doch er Marketing, als Realität.
Geile Idee!
Nice ❤️
Are those Maple slabs?
@Laura Kampf love Maple grain patterns. Beautiful job!
Yes
I dont have planner machine and you just save my time with the router
Great idea Laura! I have never see before this technik. Congrats.
Moinsen! Hatte vor gar nicht langer Zeit die gleiche Idee mit dem Besäumen der Bretter; nur in einem anderen Zusammenhang.Wollte Schranktüren mit ungleichen Stößen erstellen mithilfe dieser Methode. Die, wie Jameson Evenden schrieb, "the Kampf method." Super Sache!!!
Bardzo inspirujący filmik!! Zdrowia życzę
... that is legitimately genius. the slabs don't have to reference against a known square if they reference against each other! I learn so much from you, thank you!
Super smart idea 💡 and the final result looks great. I'll give it a try. Thanks for sharing such a great idea
such a clever solution, great!
Far less wasted wood, too.
Thank you for sharing your great idea !!
Use an electric 4.5" planner instead or router and go even faster ! : )
Genius Woman !! besides, waves look mor natural than straight cuts when finishing .
Cutting both boards together is so clever and the router idea is genius. I've made a campervan table top from pallet wood but have no way to plane it all smooth. I'll see if i can rig up my router in a similar way, thanks.
Genius!
-slow clap- well played. Well played
Very nice work! (Btw: Where did you get these screw clamps with the iron handle on 3:58 ?)
What an amazing looking board! I love the curved lines fitting together! The router bit seems like a lot of work but is a genius way of getting the job done without a planer!
Genius. As usual !
It will be even easier if you use some big head router bit - something like in this video nlworld.info/key/video/uaCAk7SsiYmFe64 ;-) and in cnc it will be even emore easy ;-).
You are a genius! Great job done and great help for me!
I love this, I always want to make my own table but yet never know I just want 3 tools to do so.
You can also use this technique for wallpapering
amazing! I loved that
This is cool, I use a similar technique when I cut auto body rust holes out! I weld sheet over hole and cut out together so that the two pices have the same exact shape.!
Great job, great idea. Congratulations.
I just love love love your style!!! It’s genuine, cool, fun, totally amazing!!!!!
OMG !!! You’re brilliant!!!!!!! I just tried this on a project I was working on (serendipitously I came across your video, while I was racking my brain on how to get around blending 3 different boards)... anyway, The technique you showed is not only cool and clever it saved me a lot of time! The glue up went super well. Thank You Thank You Thank You!!! Next time I’m in AMS (granted we have to get they this pandemic first) I will invite you to the Jordaan find a cool bar and buy you a beer 🍺!! Prost!
Ottimo lavoro complimenti saluti dall'Italia, se vuoi visita il mio canale NLworld mi farebbe piacere un grande saluto 😁😁👍👍
That does look really cool with the curved glue joint. Very clever indeed!
Genesis idea!
That looks awesome !!! 👏
Nice!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Laura, you really had me there with the bandsaw technique. Loved it. But, you really lost me when I watched you spend all those very tedious and boring hours going back and forth with that router. I hated that. It might be a different way, but it sure as hell ain't a faster way.
#schweinegeil beim tapezieren für jeden normal, bei der Holzverarbeitung wäre ich nicht drauf gekommen. Werde ich testen 💪👍
Perfekt gemacht !
Thanks for this, Laura! I've been wanting to put together kitchen and dining room tables for years but have put off attempting it because of the panels. I couldn't figure out how to put them together without having to buy a planer and a joiner and all that for which I don't have room. I don't have a band saw, but I do have a jig saw, and I don't have a plunge router, but I do have an electric hand planer- I think I can do this!!
