Project Information

Sycamore table is 42" X 16" and stands 23" high on a red oak base I freehand designed.
Used a Foredom carver and handheld router to make the recesses for a river and a couple of other ponds in the top. a colored crushed glass called FRIT was placed in the grooves, stabilized with superglue then everything covered with epoxy. Not very fond of the way this piece turned out; legs and top don't compliment one another. but it was an interesting process and the turquoise colors make it unique. someone will think its pretty ????

That is a very cool table, Phillip. The top is the main attractions. You could always make new legs.. maybe rustic. Some times if you strip the bark off branches and leave that outer surface, they make great legs. One suggestion would be to spread the legs out wider for more support in case something heavy is placed near the end.

cheers, Jim
