Mads constructs two 4x4-foot torsion box work tables and a rustic dining table to practice woodworking skills before beginning interior trim work on his 44-foot catamaran, Spiffy.1:30 He machines the torsion box components using a CNC router, initially attempting to secure stock with double-sided tape before switching to tabs to prevent movement.1:51 To ensure precision, he uses a 20mm reamer to correct tapered holes in the tabletop, allowing for the use of standard work-holding accessories.6:52 For the dining table, he joins alder boards using a Festool Domino joiner and thickened epoxy, compensating for the lack of a jointer by using a track saw and a thickness planer with an MDF sled.8:44 He surfaces the final dining tabletop on the CNC to achieve a flat finish.13:24 Final assembly of the tables awaits the completion of a new workshop space, which is currently being cleared of a shipping container to accommodate the boat's future refit.18:40
