I got the Idea for this table from two different posts "Floating Hall Table" and "Cocobolo Writing table" I hope they don't mind I borrowed Some design elements from both.
The top was free wood I was given and was told It was Ipe, he was using it for a small outside ramp he was making for a hardwood dealer. He tossed 2 peices to the side because they had so much figure in them. I am not sure it is Ipe but I can say it was the hardest most dense wood I have every used and I have used alot of exotics in the turnings I do.
The legs are Black Walnut that I ebonized with the vineger steel wool trick.
I used no metal on the table the top is held with a sliding dove tail and pinned with a blackwood peg in the center, the legs a M&T.
The finish is Deft lacquer that still needs rubbed and buffed out.
I am curoius on what you guys think this should sell for if I decide not to keep it and take it to a show I am selling my turnings at this summer? I know how to price round stuff but flat I am not to sure. Plus I don't know if we even want to sell it.
Thanks for looking and fell free to critque it.
