First Large Solid Wood Project
Wife wanted a kitchen table for the new house. She was looking at Pottery Barn. I said I could make the table she was looking at for half the price or less. Well here it is

Re: First Large Solid Wood Project
DITTO rubenjames, and by the way PB is over priced and not that kind of quality. What wood is that? I took a second better look, White Oak?
I like the design, but I am partial to that. Just not a bench fan, too old for a bench and climbing in and out unless on the end, okay for kids.

Greenie, Grayling, SS stand alone BS and BS SPT, jointer and belt sander, 3 Ers with Speed Changers. I think those 3 cover my ER needs, and space for them.

Re: First Large Solid Wood Project
I have made most of my furniture and use cherry, walnut and quarter sawn white oak, when all said and done about 25-30% of the same thing bought.

So I gots ta know, what did it cost to make, and what was PB price with shipping?

Re: First Large Solid Wood Project
Thanks for the compliments.
Yes, quarter swan white oak.
Cost about $600.00 for just the table, PB was I think $1,850.00 plus $150.00 shipping. These prices do not include the bench. PB's was pine. J

Re: First Large Solid Wood Project
Al,
I think I was working on this when you came to pick up the table saw sled. After we moved it sat in the kitchen unfinished until recently. I got involved in a bunch of new house honey dew lists; but was finally able to get back to it.

I was probably too busy ogling all your tools to notice! I still like the Incra 5000 sled. It is a beast but accurate as heck!
