Very nice table SteveV. I like the finish.

Beautiful Steve, like swodaddy above I really like the contrast in the legs and the finish.

very nice great quality If you don’t mind me asking how much did this project cost to build

-- I love this site !

Absolutely gorgeous. I’m building allot of small projects right now to learn and improve my techniques, but someday I hope to be able to build some beautiful furniture like this.

That is a really great table, Steve. I don’t quite get how the extensions work???

that is one very nice table ! makes me want to be a woodworker when i grow up ! great job your a real craftsman

At the size that table already is, did they really need the extensions.lol. That is a very impressive table, very elegant but rustic at the same time. I like it!

A beautiful table.
Do the extensions work like the table Popular woodworking had on there blog?

Beautiful workmanship Steve, very cleaver on the pull-outs, I love the breadboards and the contrasting colors – very striking! -

I just looked at your construction pics. Nice job. Beautiful table. Was it all veneered? mike

-- Mike. Profisher50@yahoo.com

All – thanks for the very kind comments!!!

Mike, thanks!! No, there was no veneer … this was solid 8/4 cherry … by the time it was finished it was 7/4.

Dick, sorry I could not find the PWW blog on table extensions. Could you post or send me the link. The extension design I can’t take credit for. This design was suggested by a woodworker in Israel though the FWW Knots forum.

Thos., check out the link to the other construction pics (http://www.flickr.com/photos/stephenalanfuniture/sets/72157602156952081/) these may help to explain the extensions. If not, I can send you a drawing the shows it better. Just let me know.

Sgt_Lobo, no time like the present to start building the big stuff. I’m no pro, I just love the challenge.

Thanks for posting the slide show…very interesting. I hope the customer can appreciate just how much effort and care went into this table! I bet installing the breadboard ends was very satisfying when it all came together. Thanks for sharing!
