Front view, notice the hooped rail that allows room for legs beneath the desk.
A small project to test the feasibilty of using Domino tenons to attach legs to a table top, avoiding the need for stretchers or buttons.
The top is kept flat with breadboard ends and the ‘hooped’ rail eliminates racking, but leaves room for legs under the desk.
There is enough play in the curved legs to accept seasonal movement in the top.
The tabletop is Australian ironbark; the legs and feet are blackbutt.

Ironbark, not an easy wood to work with, but a lovely grain

The Domino tenons set at an angle to match the legs.
