-
Knotty alder top and white oak legs
-
Knots filled with tinted epoxy
-
After gluing up the top, drew the curves, sawed relief cuts and chiseled off the chunks.
-
Profiled the underside edge with a drawknife, jack plane, chisel, and spokeshave.
-
Tapered and faceted the white oak legs, glued and wedged the ends into alder blocks, and here is the final gluing of the blocks to the underside, and chamfering the bottoms of the legs.
