That is one very nice table. You have done a great job on the design and blog. Much appreciated!!!!!

-- Oldworld, Fair Oaks, Ca

Oh man, I’ve been waiting for this, it’s beautiful.

-- Ain't better or worse than any other woodpecker in the woods.

Way cool David.

You have awe struck me again!! I know how much you’ve labored over this table and all that effort has produced a beautiful piece of furniture.

-- Doug, New Mexico.......the only stupid question is one that is never asked!........don't fix it, if it ain't broke!

Maybe a bad hair month David, buts certainly not a bad woodworking month. Your table is absolutely awe inspiring.
The blog you did on this table will give a great boost to those of us who want to do better and more varied work. Thank you again for your efforts in teaching us the how-to and showing us what is possible.

-- Mike, American in Norway

David, you have done a tremendous job on this table, and it shows !!
Creating things of beauty really has a way of lifting the spirits,
Glad to see your hair is getting under control LOL
And, your welcome, it was an honor.
Legs, legs, legs…......

putting wings on our prayers is very important ,

in this case it’s legs !

that is todays project .

-- david ,new mexico ,allheart

WOW David!
This is one nice table! The edging is particularly unique and beautiful… to say nothing of the top!
Creativity and genius… and look what you get.

Beautiful job David. Absolutely gorgeous. I have never seen a table like that. If you built it to sell you won’t have any problems getting rid of it. Just make sure you get what it’s worth. Mucho dinero!

-- Mike. mwurm13@yahoo.com

thanks mike ,

thats the plan ,
i put my whole future into changing my life around ,
and am praying that it will sell well .

congratulations on your three years ,
best to you and the wife ,
and many more !

David, I have to add one more wow for such a beautiful table.

-- With God's help all things are possible- even woodworking. Woodworking is not just a hobby, it is an (expletive deleted) expensive hobby.

You could make lots of money and keep the table, that is if your good at poker…LOL. Great looking top a work of art David.

Fantastic Job, David!!! What’s next? Sawing off four broom handles for legs, right…?
As far as bad hair, be thankful you have some!! For others, that is a memory from the past… ;-)

-- Mike in Manchester, NH---Unpleasant tasks are simply worthy challenges to improve skills.

mike ,
i’ve been thinking scrolled sawed saw horses ,

i’m studying your process now .

-- david ,new mexico ,allheart

David you’re a Master

-- --<<<<<< I will not stop until I get it right. >>>>>>--

Hey, Great Idea!! I thought of broom handles only because I never use them anyway…

-- Mike in Manchester, NH---Unpleasant tasks are simply worthy challenges to improve skills.

gman , thats debaterble !

mike , i can’t even find mine !

-- david ,new mexico ,allheart

Did you check the firewood pile?

-- Mike in Manchester, NH---Unpleasant tasks are simply worthy challenges to improve skills.

i just started a fire , but it’s to dark still ,
to find pieces that are the same length .

i’m still waiting for my friend to bring me the last piece of maple i need ,
i had enough , just .
but i forgot and ripped my wood before laying the template on it first !

-- david ,new mexico ,allheart

David,

This table top is just great work. So much patience you have to achieve such piece. It’s so beautyfull. It catches the eyes instantly. Congrats. You are very inspiring.

Best,

-- Learn from yesterday, work today and enjoy success tomorrow.

You could probably sell that top to The Smithsonian as art!

That level of craftsmanship is so far above where I’m at, I just hope I live long enough to get there.

It is astonishingly beautiful.

-- Eric

WOW and a DOUBLE WOW! Talk about craftsmanship! Outstanding!

-- Never board, always knotty, lots of growth rings

Unbelievable beauty ! Your skill is remarkable to say the least , David : )

-- You know you're getting old when you know the difference between you're (you are) and your (belonging to you) AND how to use them in a sentence .

Thats a beauty Dave what are you going to use as a finish

-- cut it saw it scrap it

David, after a while I run out of adjectives to respond to your incredible, beautiful, inspiring, awesome,
wonderful, etc, etc, work.

I hope to see it live and in person before too long.

Yet another Masterpiece Thanks once again for sharing with us

-- Kent Shepherd * The goal is-----More Tools!

Breath in…
Breath out…
All back to normal….
The universe is back on track….YOu are most welcome.
This table belongs on a yaght…you know.. the ones that cost…. oh….50mill or so..
There are so few,.... YOu are a rare spiecies David….
Exceptionally beautiful.
Where is it off to?

-- "Even small steps makes a distance." (Shawn Phillips, musician)

That is incredible, I hope to be that good one day.

-- Have thy tools ready. God will find thee work.

I will sound redundant, but what the heck… What an incredible job and piece of art.

the purpose of this table is to change the way i think and live .
i spent every dime i could get my hands on to upgrade tools and wood
now i have to pay the piper and the folks that payed my phone bill ,
car insurance , electric bill and some smokes .
as was , i could pay my bills and eat simply and watch t.v. ,
but nothing would ever change , life in black and white .
so this and my next works are hopefully for sale ,
to bring me to a higher level than existence ,
to wondrous life , and a chance to really do my gifted work !
that’s what LJ has done for me , made me aware that i want to do more ,
and live again .
thanks !
P.S. anyone know how to sell ?

-- david ,new mexico ,allheart

Patron….that is absolutely breathtaking….

-- If you can't build it, code it. If you can't code it, build it. But always ALWAYS take a picture.

Beautiful work David. When you going to make me one and ship it to me?...............LOL You are a master yourself friend.

-- Jerry--A man can never have enough tools or clamps

Wow…had to add my wow in there….that is a beautiful, exquisite piece of work!....the pattern is hypnotic…. ====look at the table….”you are getting sleepy….you are going to buy this table…....” ===ooops sorry…got sidetracked

I do not think you will have any problem finding it a good home…but you certainly must find a good place to do that….I don’t free form create much furniture for sale (my work is based on special order?design type stuff) so I would have to refer you to folks that do this for a living….I do know that you should stay away from craft fairs, furniture stores and be careful of online gigs as alot of scammers come from there. Craft fairs are full of folks looking for “cheap” stuff – gifts and ideas…most won’t spend over 30 bucks or so…else they think they could make it cheaper…..Furniture or retail type stores will want to buy 1/2 price so they can mark up….you might try a consignment store…but you have to cover their overhead along with what you want to make. Online…unless you set up your own page…and are very conscientious about paying attention to scams…it is a real pain in the ….. Ebay is expensive….but a possibility…I think you are better off talking to the pros….the best bet is word of mouth…folks see that fine stuff and tell their friends/family…who tell theirs…etc…that is how I get orders now and then…

-- Woodworking.....My small slice of heaven!

thanks reggiek ,
i’ve tried all of the above over the years ,
and have never sold one single thing !
word of mouth has been my only help ,
but only in my construction world .

deni ( rosewood ) , wants to see if he can sell it and more of my stuff ,
hes got connects all over the world ,
and says he can sell glasses to a blind man !

so lets see what happens ?

-- david ,new mexico ,allheart

Dave! you did something very special with this table. put a price on it and one of us Lj’s may buy it from you.
i really like what you did with the edge.
