Table Build
Posted: Fri Aug 07, 2015 2:37 pm
The bed build is now complete, I will post up some photos as soon as I can shuffle the furniture around in my house. The cabinet will resume shortly after this table is complete.
Now I'm onto a table, building this small dining table height table for a friend of mine for use in his art studio. He is a painter, but just like those painters wearing Italian suits and smoking cigars from the 40's....he's of that variety, so a bit of fine furniture in the studio is needed.
Starting off by prepping the stock, I removed the wind and leveled these boards, prepping them to be glued together to form the tabletop;
You may notice that sometimes when prepping stock I like a bit of entertainment in the workshop, contrast to when I'm cutting joinery I like everything quiet.
Two glued and onto board three;
Everything is glued, leveled, jointed and thicknessed and now I a prepared to start cutting the battens;
Battens are done and now cutting tapered dados;
Followed by dovetailing them with the side rabbet;
All set;
The cherry stock is prepped for this project, all ready for joinery. I did not document the prepping of this stock since it's so redundant with the recent past.
