Nesting Tables

This is my first attempt at finer furniture. Thanks to all for your encouragement. They are natural oak with wiping poly. I will use wiping poly again.

Nicely done! Are the center panels with the decorative cut-out one piece? I’ve got some plans for the Morris chair companion piece that has you glue up two pieces after cutting out the decorative center, half on each side. I love the wipe-on poly, just stay away from the water-based stuff. No stain?

No, the tables were for my husband and he did not want stain. I know that traditionally it should have had stain, but he gets what he wants. These panels were done one piece. The plans was in Wood Magazine February 2000. They are supposed to be cut with a scroll saw and router table. I did not use the router, I only used the scroll saw. Chickened out. Did not feel comfortable with the set up. Oops I forgot!!! I learned to resaw!!! It worked, that was cool.
