Center-Gap Dining Table
Oct 24, 2012
Woodworker: Doug Stowe
Seasonal wood movement often prevents table edges from staying flush with the ends of breadboards, but Doug Stowe’s center-gap design keeps expansion and contraction under wraps. His design lets wood move at the center of the table avoiding misalignment between the ends of the breadboards and the outside edge of the table. Stowe finished this cherry table with Deft Danish oil and added a top coat of satin polyurethane spray.
