I have attached a picture of an elegant spindle table. Does anyone have experience/plans of the best strategy for the three pieces? Here's my plan. Am I on the right track?
I'm so far thinking of turning a tenon on the bottom of the top, then holding that with deep reach jaws. That tenon would have a hole for a tenon in the end of the pedestal. The pedestal seems straightforward; tenon on top and bottom.
Base: turn between centers and make a recess under the bottom for chuck jaws, then shape the top section.
Possibly add some timber screws up through the base into the pedestal? Glue only for the upper joint.
Thank you
