Thorsen House Side Table

Nice going Fred,
I love the end grain tiled top, it looks super, & a nicely put together design of the rest of the table. Good Luck!

I like your interpretation of the table, Fred. I particularly like the top.

Nicely done….
Lol…listen to Karson talking about the sandbaggers….after having everyone in Southern Delaware build tables with him….:)

Wow Fred, your tabletop is amazing. That isn’t something to be covered with a doily! Very nice work.

Thanks for all your comments. My wife is having a hard time deciding where she will display the table. She first thought it would be in the living room next to the sofa with an antique lamp on it. Then she said that not very many people would be able to see it. Her latest thought is placing it in the entry hall so everyone can see it when they come in. She really likes her table.

Sounds like you will have to make another to sell Fred.

that’s where my table ended up—right by the door!! No one will miss it now :D

You must be proud that she loves HER table so much ;)

Nice work, Fred. I gotta say this is my favorite so far. The top is truly an interpretation and is really striking. Congratulations on finishing.

Don’t let her put ANYTHING on that table. These are not tables we’ve all made, they are pieces of art. You woudn’t put books or a coffee mug atop the Venus de Milo, or the Gates of Hell now would you?

Hi Fred:

I like your interpretation…......really cool!!!!! I’m really impressed with the many approaches each “jock” used. Wasn’t expecting this build to be as exciting as it became.

Fred this is really nice. I like the attention to the small details that make this an exceptional piece.

Well done!
