This a little different take on a Shaker table.... (not the design but the wood selection)
Here are the details:
- Legs are maple... ebonized with India ink (boy was that messy!)
- Aprons are maple ambrosia
- Top is a mystery... I bought the wood from Woodcraft ($4.50bf) & it was labeled "Pecan", but I doubt it. It has large open pores like mahogany but it is very heavy. Maybe someone has an idea???
I built this for a lady who wanted a donation for her charity auction. She called me before Christmas & I told her to call me after the holidays to pick it up. She never did call & I don't have her phone number. Oh well :-)
I guess I will donate it to my church auction....
Comment welcome....
Enjoy!!!
