I’ve been working on this for seven months. This is the final result. The nesting tables are quarter sawn white oak. The plans are from wood magazine. I learned a lot during this project. I kept notes in a blog on this site. Here are some pics of the build in progress:

BJ, the tables look great. You did a wonderful job with the stock selection, joinery and finish. You should be very proud of the set.
How did you affix the tiles? I agree that they are the icing on the cake. Well Done!

Art,
The tiles are set in a small bead of silicone. After 24 hours it felt very secure. The large tile has a double bead.

Beautiful set of nesting tables, white oak always looks good. I really like the idea of the tile in the centre of the table tops….excellent job.
