This is the project that I created my senior year in high school and I just now at the beginning of fall had time to finish it. I used some bendable plywood to create the covers of this project. it was the first time that I had ever seen the wood before, but I thought that I would give it a shot and see what I could do. Once I built all of the forms to bend the wood the project went good. then I got the project home at the end of the school year and it sat in my garage until the end of summer. Just a few weeks ago I order some walnut and maple veneer, I don’t have a vacuum press so I also had to order some heat lock( which I found to work very good). This was also the first time that I used veneer on a project as well, it didn’t go to badly for my first run with both the bendable plywood or the veneer.

This is a table that I built my Junior year in high school. It was a fun project, but of course it had its share of problems. The main problem that I had was that the table top keep cracking on me. I did finally end up getting it to stay put after gluing it three times. So I did end up with a few gaps which I had to fill. I really enjoyed doing this project, it was a lot of fun to figure out how to do some of the processes. During the building of my table I did end up changing my mind on how I wanted to cut the legs, I was originally going to have both sides curve into the center. But just before I cut the other side I decided to try something different, and I have to say that I am very happy I changed my mind. I also really love the look of the Maple and the walnut together it is a very great combo of woods.
