I’m watching this video: https://youtu.be/2VujUm6K-IU

At times he is working with his hands with the camera directly on front of him while using both hands to work. The camera never moves or gets bumped. In one shot he is hitting something with a hammer. Is he just hugging a tripod carefully? Using a boom? I’m scratching my head.

    I’ve seen it reflected once or twice. He has a tripod basically infront. Like Steve1989’s setup.

          Looks like a regular tripod with legs not extended so they fit under the table and then the center column is extended to bring the camera above the table, he then sits behind the camera and brings his arms around it. Quick glance at the original video confirms this seems to all be mostly tripod work. Another comment brings up distortion, which is valid but people are used to this kind of distortion and modern lenses help a lot to keep it under control.
