For local Relief Sale held at our County Fairgrounds on Oct 1-2. (The sale is a joy - quilts, pies, cakes, you name it.). Although not a Mennonite I am honored to offer this for their worthy cause. The table is a modification on a through tenon design Mission End Table. (The slats are tough to do BTW.). 13/16 cherry with 2” legs, drawer is dovetailed. I made the mistake of using Target Cherry Toner which is brutal to deal with - love most of their products - especially EM 2000 and EM 6000 (which is what this is finished with plus a catalyst). Will not use it again. Will use Watco and let it dry for 3 days. As an experiment I used my small Domino and 8mm tenons on the rear and pocket screws on the sides. Next time I will use the Domino exclusively if I do not do through tenons. Reason I sent this in is because my wife told me, gasp, it is beautiful.
