*This is my first post, so go easy please :) So my wife and I talked about a new dinning room table. She wants a chevron pattern on top of it but not with pallet wood, with walnut instead. With all those small pieces I’m concerned about how to put them all together and wood movement. I don’t know if I can glue it down to a piece of plywood as a base, or really how to keep all the pieces together. Then with the alternating pattern I feel like it might stress the chevron joint? Also they framed their table and I’ve always read that is a big no-no. I live in Indiana, so the humidity definitely swings pretty good in the house (25%-50%). I’ve been lucky in the past with smaller end tables and other projects, but this would be the largest surface area project I have done to this point. Picture of the idea, but ours would be with just two rows, not three, and not as big. We don’t have that big of a house. |
