My first "fine furniture" project...

[Cliff Rohrabacher]

Slender legs. Sexy.

Scott,
Great work on the table. Small tables can be a lot of fun to build and there is always a need for another table.

[Bob Childress]

Way nice table! Love the legs, but then I always was a leg man

Finish looks great to me. As others have said, we are our own worst critics.

[Mike Hill]

I am not completely pleased with the finish which is a "General Finishes Gel Stain".

Scott: Really fine looking table. As you know, I struggled also with the finish. It's one of those items in the learning curve that just takes time and effort. How did you taper the legs? I did mine on a jointer and was happy with the effect.

I cut them on the table saw (with a taper jig) and then cleaned them up on the jointer. I must say, I am very careful cutting them on the table saw. They are 1 1/2" tapered down to 3/4" on the two inside faces. Seems like it would take quite a few passes to do that on my 1hp JET jointer (I rarely take off more that 1/16" at a pass at the jointer. Maybe that is too conservative?). That would take 12 passes on each side of 4 legs (12 passes x 4 legs x 2 sides per leg = 96).

Wow... My jointer has been set at 1/32" since I bought it.
