Thanks all for the comments. I enjoy looking at this lowboy in my living room. After 2+ years, it still looks pretty sweet.

The aniline dye was a cocktail I mixed from some JE Mosers. I think Red Mahogany and French Walnut, but I could be wrong. I was just going for a nice rich red color.

I don’t really have that much info available for when it was built. I have currently begun a slab table that has ball and claw feet and carved knees that I am trying to go blow by blow with on the mlwwoodworking forum (formerly t-chisel) if anyone wants to check that out. Thanks again, Cal

great job on this, fantastic

detail is top notch and then some!

great work, hope all is well
