Project Information
Simple 36" modern kitchen table made from 8/4 maple, finished with Osmo Polyx matte. The three legs are glued to a center triangular block to maintain alignment more than add any real strength. Then an "interface disk" screws into the tops of the legs and into the bottom of the table. I just made up the design, so hopefully it won't split in half in 6 months The holes in the disk are oversized to allow the top and the legs to expand without adding shear forces on the screws. This feels like the first piece of "real" furniture I've ever made, so even though it has plenty of mistakes I'm happy with the result.
