Black Walnut table

Project by Jeremy M. Reid posted 641 days ago 740 views 1 time favorited 20 comments Add to Favorites Watch

Just a little table…..some crazy guy I know was going to toss this peice of walnut in the firewood pile…so I saved it and tried to give it a better fate…..the leg is boxwood, and the shelf as well as many of the other peices are red oak…..

This is a great table. What is the finish and how did you attach the table skirt? I really like your designs.

That is gorgeous. I simply cannot fathom why anyone would be willing to discard a piece of walnut like this. Great find.

Thanks for sharing.
