Oval Table in Walnut

Oval Table in Walnut

November 10, 2010

My customers had this old table top in walnut. They asked me to design a new base for it. After a few drawings, we settled on an oval base. I made this 1/4 scale model:

After we were satisfied with the design, I went ahead with the curved apron in laminated walnut: Then I cut mortises and tenons, shaped the feet with the bandsaw, then cleaned them up with rasp and drawknife. Next step is the glue-up, then finishing etc.
