WIP: Shaker Table with Benches
I'm planning a summer project of building a dinning table.
I found this table by Mark Lackley on finewoodworking.com.

I liked a few things about this. It's relatively simple. It's a nice nonobtrusive shaker style. And I think benches will be much better then chairs for the time I have avalible. And makes it a bit more community feel.
The first step is to come up with plans.
I quickly had a play in sketchup...
Any suggestions on design improvements welcome.
