Maple and Walnut Console Table
Oct 07, 2015
Woodworker: Joseph Murphy
Murphy designed this console table (15 in. deep by 68 in. wide by 35 in. high) for a customer who wanted a striking piece for a prominent place in his modern home. The legs are bent laminations, eight plies in total (four in each “half” of the leg). “For me, the legs conjure up an odd mix of chemistry and fashion, so I call this thing ‘Erlenmeyer’s Slacks.'” (If you haven’t taken chemistry lately, Google “Erlenmeyer flask.” You’ll see the resemblance.) Species include quilted maple and walnut.
