Join me as i build a replacement table top for an upcycled table.
Cutting a round table top.
In this video i show you how to make a really simple 30 round table top that can be accomplished with just some basic tools and materials.
2 make sure whatever you re cutting is marked well enough to see.
How to cut a round table top with a circular saw 1 lay the top or whatever it is on a table clamp it.
This is a maple top and took about 30 minutes.
You don t need a huge shop or loads of pricey.
Clearly a speed up video.
The only cost to this project was the finish.
These are great f.
3 make a straight cut as close as you can get to your marking line.
This will reduce or completely eliminate the cracks because the stress is going more up and down than in a circle but it will turn your round table top into an ellipse.
After the 1st 2 or 3 cuts you ll see the idea.
One way i know to work from personal experience and from other local sawyers is to cut the rounds at an angle.
Well maybe kinda sorta.
