    I don't see why you're jealous Rick?
    Andrew has obviously failed making a " very plain overall appearance" table.
    Grain patterns on left side "Celebrates" the differences in the wood beautifully Andrew!!!

    Beautiful. I love how you left the sapwood and the grain patterns are all varied. Real wood. Real stuff.

    Walnut.....love it but I can only get as 8 quarter as an import here because so expensive......you are lucky in North America to have that wood so readily available in those sizes. Nice to work with and machine.

    Andrew nice job and I do like the way you attached the base to table......I will definitely keep that in mind....

    BTW was in Toronto a few months back visiting relatives and a wedding.......visited the Lee Valkey store.......wow!! Nothing like that here.

    Thanks guys, the customer wanted a "real wood look" - ie not uniform. I actually wish there was more sapwood. Plan to deliver it Monday, so will take a last photo of it assembled in the house.

    I was surprised how easily my supplier got me this 12/4... but man was it pricey. I paid nearly $14/board foot for this stuff.

    Delivered today.. took three of us and the customer`s help too..

    They are super happy with the table. Now they need their new area rug and chairs they ordered to come in and I can get a finished photo.

    But my work here is done...
