The Finished Pair of Half Round Tables

the nearly completed pair of half oval tables
I first wrote about these tables here about a month ago and now, except for the black, diamond shaped pulls that we’ll add to the drawers tomorrow, the two matching tables are complete ….. Beautiful job by Will on all the details … I have detailed the process start to finish on my dorset custom furniture blog. There are four posts total there, with larger pictures and more detailed process descriptions, all accessible from the final post linked above … Build a half round table, start to finish … Click the photos to enlarge them … Feel free to email any questions or leave them in the comments below and I’ll try to answer them … This design is a challenging project, but now that Will and I have taken some notes, we’ll have it figured out more easily the next time …
