I intended to build a modern style hall table. I used various methods such as CNC routing inlay and the twisted legs, hand cutting cross halving joints and notched rail joints, and also curved lamination of the stretcher. The table features sliding dovetail joints for the leg and rails, and also through dovetail joints for the drawers. The walnut used was from a tree that fell over in a storm years ago and the claret ash used was from a tree that was removed for property development.
