built: late 2002
coffee table build for our first house, still in service today. solid red oak. so many things I would do differently now, had I known what I know now.
very basic tools at the time, table saw and drill press with mortising attachment for the through tenons and spindles

This is a nice table. I am a fan of mission style furniture and you did a good job on this piece.
Thanks for the post.

fantastic!!! (beginner’s) question for you…I noticed the tenon goes through on the bottom of the leg—-but nont on top…is that part of this style…of just something you did…as I think of it…i guess it couldnt go through on top with the adjoining piece???
