I’m so excited – watching this come together is… inspiring!
I like the simple legs as well (although I don’t know what your finished project will look like).

Way to go Os. That table top looks really thick in that picture, or is that just an optical illusion?

Bill, it is just 3/4” thick. Thanks everyone. I’m waiting to see yours! Come on now, show me yours.

Love seeing the woodmaster in action! That shot of the cherry on the plans really shows some of the figure, it’s beautiful! Good pick. It’s funny, the boards do look like they are 1”+ thick. I do like your progress photos.

I don’t know if I will have time to participate because of workload and deadlines. I have a bigger fish I am trying to fry right now.

Very Good OZ. Don’t let that guy Obi scare you he probably wants his legs rounded and doesn’t want anyone else to do that.

Todd,
How much time can it take? go into the shop and cut four legs when you’re on a break, takes 10 minutes

The total time involved in making a table isn’t more than 24 hours.

Cut the table top

Cut four stretchers

And you better hurry, you only have 60 days in which to complete this.

Thanks, John I tried doiing it several ways and couldn’t figure it out. That’s better, John.

Karson, Obi doesn’t have to worry. I abandoned the turned leg due to time constraints, so Obi can make his round.

Obi, you should have about 50 tables made by now, if it only takes you 24 hours. It’s gonna take me a lot longer than that, I’m afraid.

Beautiful work as usual Os. Let me get this straight, you’re turning these beautiful legs and then discarding them for another look? Os, where are you so I can hunt through your scrap bin please? LOL - Thanks for sharing.

-- Better to say nothing and be thought the fool... then to speak and erase all doubt!

Way ahead of me…I’m still trying to find room in my shop.

Thanks for the compliment, I just hope the end result will be worth posting.
Chip, don’t fret because they won’t go to waste. I’ll use them for another table when I have more time to perfect how to reproduce them.

Dennis, your creations make mine look like scraps, for sure. I know from your past work that this will be a peice of cake for you and that the design will be awesome.
