Just finished this walnut cocktail table. The design is inspired by the Stickley Harvey Ellis Cocktail Table but is oval and smaller to fit the space of the sectional couch. I wanted a beefier top, so this table has a 1 3/8 thick top, which is similar to the Stickley Commemorative Coffee Table.

Great looking table. Looks like it fits that spot perfectly.
Well done Christian. The walnut grain is beautiful.
Very nice, Christian. Love working with walnut...beautiful table. I like seeing a different species used for a style that is traditionally done in oak.
By the way, it’s missing the cocktails. Just saying...
Nicely done Sir! What did you do for a finish?
That's a very appropriate and good looking table, Christian. I especially like all the thicknesses.
Thanks....Quote:

I believe I stirred in enough....but user error is always a possibility. I also stirred occasionally during the application. Does anyone have any advice on how much to stir or determine if the Arm-R-Seal is stirred enough?Quote:
