Project Information

Number 2 Granddaughters Night Table, Birthday present. (1 more to go)
Made from a piece of scrap 4" x 6" Oak, cleaned up quite nice.
Mortise and Tennon construction but this time attached Top with figure 8 fasteners.
Top had some crazy grain and some major tear out that I did end up having to sand out.
Finished with Arm-R-seal as this is for an 8 year old!

Thanks all, Oak was from a load of pipe dunnage I bought last year for firewood:) more of the salvaged wood is in the background.

P.S. On a side note the Night stands all start from the knob and are designed, constructed from that inspiration,
Grandgirl #3's will have 3 drawers, knobs purchased this summer!

Super nice design and build. I like the drawer slides, the curved front, and the dovetails are nice and tight, great work.
