Completed hall table cherry and maple

[Adam Grills]

Hello,

Here is a small table that I recently completed. It was a good little project that used up some of the smaller pieces of wood.

The legs I turned and are curly soft maple, drawer front is birdseye hard maple, drawer glides are white pine, and everything else is cherry. Knobs I turned in cherry.

Finishish is tung oil and poly.

Construction is mortise and tenon, drawer is hand cut dovetails. Drawer glides are mortised into the the legs and apron, top is held on by oversized pocket holes scews and washers. Dimensions are 28 3/4" H, 15 3/4" W, 37"L.

Thank for looking

great job! did you turn the legs yourself?

[Lee Koepke]

thats awesome.

I need to make a similar one, a bit narrower. I am VERY novice, and these projects inpire me.

Wow, I like it. That's a great looking table with an interesting variety of wood and your craftsmanship is excellent. Thanks for sharing.

Fantastic looking table. I think Maple and Cherry are two of the best contrasting woods to use in projects. Nice job on the legs. I really like the taper.

[Chris Zenda]

Beautiful job and I really love the mixture and tones of the wood!

Excellent work.....Like your choice of materials

[Randy Cohen]

that is very nice. i too like the maple/cherry combo. i once (long time ago) made maple kitchen cabinets with cherry edge banding. 20 years ago.

Very nice job, Adam. To turn the legs to the same shape, did you work against a pattern, checking dimensions frequently with calipers, or do you have a lathe duplicator?

Great minds must think alike. I just finished this one http://www.lincolnjefferys.com/BBTable.shtml and the legs are quite similar. Oh sure, you did the fancy dancy hand-cut DTs. Nice!

Thanks for the kind words everyone.
