Well, I started this on Monday afternoon and I just put a coat of BLO on it. So it's done for now!
This is my version of Garrett Hack's Splay-Legged Table (FWW Jan/Feb 2004). I did the joinery a bit different, but it's pretty much the same. I had a nice board of qs cherry laying around, so I used it for the aprons. The grain follows all the way around the table. The top is a piece of figured cherry, only it dosen't show up very well in the photo. The cockbead is tiger maple. The top is attatched with some pocket screws with the holes wallowed out a bit movement. Nothing real difficult about this project, but it was fun and will make a nice addition to our home.
Sorry if the pictures are a bit dark/light. I tweaked them on my laptop and who know's how they will look on the rest of your computers. And don't mind the driveway shots. The lighting was too good outside not to use it, even if it was just outside the garage.
P.S. Thanks Alan for some of the square pins! Guess which ones came from you?
