My In-laws Kitchen Table My In-laws Kitchen Table My In-laws Kitchen Table Click the pictures to enlarge them

Hey all, this is a table I built custom when I re-did my in-laws kitchen. The leg is a salvaged maple newel post, and the top is 1×6 maple, biscuit joined together (Norm would be proud.) I only did one leg, pinned into the concrete floor, so my father-in-law could get around it easier in his wheelchair. He can pull up to it from any direction, and loves to use it for food prep, it’s just the right height.

Congrats on the table, and smart design for wheelchair access. I know from working with special needs, sometimes even the smallest design details turn a table from unusable to extremely functional for that person.

Wow, that is a really beautiful table. It’s design is perfect for the small kitchen. Easily accessable from any angle, you can work or eat from any spot. Beautiful finish and the design is awesome. Thanks so much.

Thanks for the nice feedback, all! Really labored on this one. (Though I do think that that last one was a little biased!)
