Finally done- Dining Table

[agrieco]

Very well executed. the arcs in the pedestals echo the arcs in the feet. How were they cut?

I cut them on the bandsaw.

Jeff, I think he just doubled up on the material around the edge. That is what I would do, at least. Unless you get down and look underneith, you wouldn't notice it.

Indeed. This was one of the great pieces of guidance the group here provided. Linked here: https://www.ncwoodworker.net/forums/index.php?threads/soft-maple-for-table-top.65869/post-612032

I did the full treatment on the wrap around- matched grain and everything...looked great...and then stain hid it all! Oh well..was fun.

Very nice! What style of chair are you going to use to compliment that table?

Not sure. Anything specific come to mind?

Beautiful work!

Only if I can complete them within a reasonable definition of 'near future'....so likely no. ;-)

Anthony, My wife is wonderfully patient about completing tables, but she’s far less forgiving about standing up to eat!

There are many sound reasons for why we purchase almost all of our chairs.


Oh yeah, and I really like the table!
