My 1st table!! My 1st table!! My 1st table!! Click the pictures to enlarge them

Our local Rockler had a sale on cherry, and this is what I made with it. A small narrow side table. This is my first project using my Delta hollow chisel mortiser. This is also my first project using my Jet tenoning jig, and my tapering jig. The top is a one piece 12” wide board, and is attached with figure 8’s. I have built several other tables since this one, but this is my favorite. There’s no looking back now!!

Nice clean lines and I love cherry. That 12” board was a rare fine and you made it proud.

This is a nice table. Cherry is my favorite wood with which to work. You did an excellent job on the construction.

Well done.
