WIP - Dining Table in Maple Silkwood
Looking to build something useful with the last of my Maple Silkwood stash, there seems there will be barely enough to attempt a dining table for my Sister in law whose old veneered chipboard table is currently in need of attention.
The boards I have are 50mm thick with just a bit of twist and a fair few knots. I hope with judicious resawing I will be able to find enough stuff for a table at least 910x1500 with a 20mm thick top.

The design will have to be a minimalist style along these lines.

The table top will end up with a few 'feature knots' :rolleyes: which I'm guessing at this stage I might try and fill with some black epoxy if they need to be stabilized. The legs will also have to come out of the 50mm stock since at this stage I doubt there will be enough clear pieces to laminate up anything larger, but I'll make that call when I've got the blanks cut out. I'm hoping such thin legs won't look too fragile.
