    Beautiful, looks like you made it in wedges.

    We have a 5' round glass table that my wife now wants a solid wood top on.

    I showed her you table and she said "Wonderful, now get out to the garage and get started".

    Would loved to have seen that in person, we used to live just down the road in Lewisville, TX.

    Exponential WOW. Any idea how many hours. Is it for yourself or for a client? Dave

    Dazzling Steve! This is where the craft blends with art. Any construction details would be welcome - especially the top.

    Wow, that's beautiful. Congratulations!

    How did you put in the black stringing? Did you use a router on a jig to cut the slot? If so, how did you fasten the center point without making a hole in the veneer?

    Go into the world and do well. But more importantly, go into the world and do good.

    Stunning! I'm trying to figure out the unique pedestal, does that have three "points" for lack of a better descriptive word?

    Great work. Never seen a better one or one anywhere near that size. Time to replace the corporate "boat tables" with
    the King Arthur style.
