Thread: Coffee Table with Stickley Legs

Nice....nerrrrrrrrry niiiiiiiiiiice....

I like it.

Nicely done

Very neat job on the legs. You've set me thinking how to make huge solid legs for bigger pieces without the finished item ending up too heavy to lift !

Nice work Presky, well done

Very nicely made.

With Oak this also means that you can use quarter sawn on all the faces. I apologise for the awful photo's.

I like this a lot! wish I had seen this idea when I made my arts and craft recliner and ottoman. I just glued two 32x64s, but i'm not set up for making lock mitres either (no table saw)

They look good, I did a whole office suite like that for a Barister in Brisy a few
years back.
