dvan1901 Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 This is a quick project I recently finished. It is cherry with a tiger maple drawer front. The finish is Tung Oil Finish and wiped on shellac, buffed out with 0000 steel wool and paste wax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikepdarr Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 What a nice table. Very pleasing to the eye. The cherry and maple look so good together. Looks to me like you need one more. Are the tapers on the inside or out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dvan1901 Posted January 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 Thanks MikeD...they are only tapered on the inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kpetten Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 I think your table looks great. I like the way you matched the top, and love the maple drawer front. Though, I wonder what the table top would look like with a under bevel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dvan1901 Posted January 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 kpetten, I really wanted to do an under bevel, but talked myself out of it. Next time, I will be doing the under bevel for sure... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick LoDico Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Sleek. Very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayWC Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 I still can't get used to the Shaker tops. To me they look like (and this is not a shot at the craftsman who posted the pic here...it's a commentary on the style) an aircraft carrier flight deck. The top just overpowers the rest of the table. Maybe the underbevel that was previously mentioned would help to lighten the heavy horizontal plane that is the top of the table... The craftsmanship looks nice. My $.02.
