My rendition of the Fancy fan leg C-table

This is by far the most intricate piece I've made, very happy with how it turned out! Walnut and maple finished with danish oil.

That’s really cool! How did you cut the fingers/strips? Trying to second guess Marc; straight cutting router bit, dado set and cleaned up with a chisel?

I have the incra 3000 mitre sled and a freud flat top grind saw blade that is 1/8 inch wide, so I cut once and then move over 1/16 inch and have my 3/16 inch groove. Maybe it's cheating but it's easier than a chisel lol

As for the strips I turned a feather board backwards to create a positive stop on the left side of my blade so my strip wasn't against my fence. And I just kept snugging up my fence to the board against the stop and ripping the strips till it was too thin for comfort
