This is a project I finished a few months ago fro my eldest sister, a housewarming gift that ended up a few months late lol.
Walnut and red oak, top finished with 15 coats of poly/BLO. All sanded to 600 grit.
Sorry for the pics, didn’t take many before kicking it out the door, had to drive it out to her the next day.

Looks really nice from what I can tell.
Well done.

That’s a great looking Nakashima coffee table—I’m sure she loves it!

That’s a fantastic table, looks like it took a long time. Did you router jig flatten the top? How is the top attached to the base?
