Finished my breakfast table. The top is black walnut and the legs are western maple. I used a tung oil mix for the finish, followed up by a wipe-on oil based poly.

This is really nice. I like the contrast of the legs to the aprons/top!
Very nice design and excellent wood selection. I like your choice of finish as well.

This turned out SOOO nice. Great job on the breakfast table!!!
Keep up the good work!
I'll jump on the bandwagon and let you know your choice of woods and contrast and finish are great. It's a simple project executed with skill and class. It looks elegant and inviting. Nice job!
I have always liked maple and walnut together in a project. Your table looks great.

Thanks for all the positive comments! I've had the figured maple legs laying around for years waiting for the right top to compliment the color and figure. I knew it was worth the wait!
very nice job

So much to learn, so little time.....
Very nice John, I like the contrasting woods, the top is great also.

That maple you used is stunning! Great work on the project, too!
