I have been asked to build a dining table with a 12” removable leaf in the center. I will probably use a commercial slide. I would appreciate any tips anyone who has built one can give me. The table is 84” long (with leaf) by 40” wide. It will have 3” breadboards. The client wants the grain running lengthwise and the leaf across. Seems a little odd as the tables I have seen with center leaves have the top cross grain. He thinks it will look good with the breadboard’s. I have built several tables but never an expandable.
