So I've been working on a coffee table for my sister over the past week.
After sweeping all of this up is when I decided I would be purchasing a DC system in the near future.
The beer boxes are from watching the NFL playoffs in the shop because the women invaded the den.:wsmile:
This is my first "I need more clamps" moment. :rotflm:
The table legs after glue up and cutting to size.
The first part of the base assembly.
The base fully assembled.
I had enough lumber left over to make the bottom shelf from hardwood.
I decided to put my Kreg pocket hole jig to use with this project. All of the joints and assembly use pocket screws. This is, to date, the biggest piece that I have built. I'm super excited. Everything is square and it doesn't wobble when sitting on the floor.:thumbs_up
The table top will be a frame that will house a pattern of wine corks topped off with a pane of glass. I'm leaving that part up to little sis. :gar-Bi Does any one have any great ideas of what kind of finish to use on cypress? I was thinking BLO (I've never used BLO before so I don't know)?????
Thanks for looking. I know you guys love pictures (sorry about the quality they were taken with my phone). I'll post some more when I get the top built and more after the finishing.
