Swedish Pine Extension Table
-
Idle hands while watching a program about the construction of Guedelon Castle in France.
-
does the extension board have a groove for the sliding part?
-
No. On the original it appears that the leaves were just set in place. I would probably add some small cleats to the bottoms of the leaves to keep them in place on the sliding supports.
-
Is it a: swedish-pine table
or a: swedish pine-table?I think the leg part looks foreign.
Not something I have seen in Sweden.
This type is more common for a traditional pine table in Sweden.
-
It's modeled after a pine table with a Swedish passport. I took liberties and replaced the brackets between feet and legs.
-
Does it come as a flat pack with a few extra useless parts and one crucial part missing?
-
Yes. And another hex driver that you only use once.
-
Someone asked about building a trestle table with extension slides and since I had this table open already, it was a simple modification.
Another simple modification provides storage for the leaves when not in use.
-
Nice, Dave. A very functional and practical design with an appropriately rustic sensibility.
