Table Inspired by Sawyer’s Barn
The inspiration hit Phillip while walking through his sawyer’s barn. He saw a badly checked, but beautiful, piece of American cherry and knew he could find the right design for it. As much as possible, he kept the original character of the board, riving it into two pieces and cleaning them with an ax. The top was then assembled using sliding dovetails for the shoulders and butterfly keys on top.
