So here it is, my first Sketch Up design a dining room table. The design is made of alternating strips of White oak starting on the outside and alternating with black walnut strips with the center strip being curly elm. Instead of basic edge gluing I'm using sliding dove tails. Big thanks to Dave Richards for his insight into constructing these and with resizing my SU so it's not huge. The legs are tapered and rails will be mortise and tenon joinery. These will be also made of white oak. It will be after the new year before any real progress is made. I've gotta make some Christmas presents and I'm hoping santa will be bringing me a new planer first.
