  2. Birthday Waterfall Bubinga - Entry Table # 4

    I began today by cutting the walnut into manageable pieces. I milled the walnut flat and square.
    I am going to use a piece with sapwood in it for the inside shelf. I like the look of it after finishing.
    I glued them with the Bessey clamps and set them aside for an hour.

  3. Birthday Waterfall Bubinga - Entry Table # 3

    I decided to make a doweling jig at work to reinforce the mitered corners of the project. After some testing on some plywood, I felt ready to attempt the mitered edge of bubinga. Everything came out OK. I learned that a brad point bit does not work well with this type of jig.

  5. Birthday Waterfall Bubinga - Entry Table # 1

    Using a plywood board for a straight edge, I route with a pattern bit for a good edge on the top. I take small cuts at a time until the edge "cleans up".

    Using the table saw, I cut the 45 degree angles where the top and side joins. I had to use a piece of plywood clamped to the board because I couldn't use the live edge as a reference against the fence.
