Nice joinery! I love the wedged M&T through the crossed legs. Haven't seen that before. Half-laps on the legs?

How many "brownie points" from the Missus did that earn you? :)

Beautiful piece of work!

Now you can gloat every time you sit down to eat, and rightfully so.

Great looking table!

We wanted a new kitchen table a couple of years ago and I built the one we wanted rather than have to suffer through the torture of shopping for one.

Yes, quarter swan white oak.

Cost about $600.00 for just the table, PB was I think $1,850.00 plus $150.00 shipping. These prices do not include the bench. PB's was pine. J
Well I guess I hit that nail on the head. Ouch 2K$ from PB, :eek:
GLOAT YOUR FANNY OFF :D

Beautiful table Jack! Any woodworking project, especially furniture always seems to mean so much more when it is built from your own two hands. I am sure that your table will be handed down through generations. Well done!
