I just have to make dead sure that the joints are super tight on that one, because I know that I will eb looking at it almost every day. :-)<br /><br />Brgds<br />JonasJonas Jensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07787393233185454227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3111753163359491070.post-8942974363324805702018-05-05T08:25:29.926-07:002018-05-05T08:25:29.926-07:00Looks great, really enjoying the joinery on this o...Looks great, really enjoying the joinery on this one.

And that will have to be a lot more delicate since the table will be smaller.<br />The plan is to use one of the sycamore slabs from the crotch of the tree that I milled 3 years ago.<br /><br />I think that the angled pieces creates a special visual interest compared to most tables that I see, where the lower stretcher is usually mounted solely using some 90 degree joints. But on the other hand it is also much more time consuming. But as long as the results are good looking I can live with that :-)<br /><br />Brgds<br />Jonas<br />Jonas Jensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07787393233185454227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3111753163359491070.post-29321228533560602402018-05-05T06:33:32.476-07:002018-05-05T06:33:32.476-07:00Hi.

In that case I would probably just split it.<br /><br />Brgds<br />JonasJonas Jensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07787393233185454227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3111753163359491070.post-28747758211799885982018-05-05T05:57:45.912-07:002018-05-05T05:57:45.912-07:00I like how this style of table can work in both a ...I like how this style of table can work in both a rustic and refined setting.
