That is a nice looking display table You have carved out there TTW ! I like the design and the finish looks very natural . I bet this would make a nice hall or coffee table on a larger scale of coarse! Anyway, welcome to L J’s and once again ” good stuff”

Thats a very cool table. I like the legs a lot. how did you cut the circle? Does it get glass on top?

Lighthearted, thanks for the compliment! The legs are inspired from a table I saw here on LJ’s. I don’t remember who it was, but I do remember he made his table from what he called “Stinkwood”. Thanks Stinkwood guy! Gotta give credit where credit is due. :) But I digress…the circle was cut using a “Jasper Jig”. Pretty cool tool, the guy who came up with the idea made it to cut speaker box holes. I use this thing in a lot of applications…it allows you to use your router to cut exact circle diameters to within a 16th”. As for the glass question, I came up with the recessed design for my client to securely hold his houka and elevate it off the ground. Glass would’ve covered up the recess. That gives me an idea though…when I finish the project you just gave me an idea for I’ll show it to ya and give you the credit! Thanks buddy!
