   As the robot said . . .

   "Need more data." There are several tables pictured in that issue. Which one are you looking at?

   Sorry it is the edge detail on the table that is shown in the article titled A bench that fits every room on page 36

   On the Edge

   The table's edge near the end appears to be square to the top. I could see a couple of ways of doing the "scoop" - either by hand with a spokeshave (e.g. http://www.lie-nielsen.com/catalog.php?sku=boggs ) or with a router using a chamfer (or similar) bit ( e.g. http://www.eagleamerica.com/product/v117-0902/ea_-_edge_forming ).

   Using a router, you'd need an edge-guide template having a very shallow arc which would allow a deeper cut at the center, with the table top flipped bottom side up. I'd make the cut in two or three passes - shallow, moderate, and final depths of cut, keeping the edge-guide template parallel to the edge with each adjustment.
