Project Information
This was my recent large project. My first "real" furniture project. I designed the trestle base structure using red oak (except for the wedges in the through-tenons) and the top is 8/4 cherry. I cut the 2 breadboard ends from one board and incorporated some sapwood into each end to provide some symmetry.
The base has some thinned latex paint followed by multiple coats of GF water-based topcoat. The top has 3 coats of WDO natural followed by 5 coats of Arm-R-Seal.
The final dimensions of the top are 84"x48". Each trestle assembly (top and bottom) are 35-36" wide.
