Nice

Perfect !!!

now I'm more curious as before

Thanks Dave. I've been playing with the clock on the table. Decided I like the black clock better than the ivory colored one so I changed the top on the table. I've also been playing with a KT version but I'm not totally happy with it yet. [image: M4lg_CocktailTablewclock2.png]

Thank you sir.

Great job Dave. Really like your sketchy style.

Nice result and very informative blog post!

The very best in this new phase of your life.

I've got a decent enough shop. Just no time to use it.

Splendid !

@faust07 said: I would like to touch the loose parts and put them together.... I agree. I'd like to make one of those mostly to put it together. I think I'd stick a screw in from the underside of the table to keep the legs from falling off when it gets picked up. I can imagine getting very frustrated every time I moved it even though I'd know the legs are loose.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you Charlie. Thanks for the tutorial should go to Box. As for the stretchers on the floor, it is an odd thing. This piece was made that way or maybe they dragged the table around enough over the years to wear the legs down. I don't think I'd build the table with the stretchers right down on the floor like this because it would accentuate an uneven floor. But that's the way the original was made so that's what I drew. And stretcher is indeed the correct word.

Well dense would be appropriate. It's more edges than I would have chosen to use but from the file I started with, it would have been a whole lot of work to do more cleaning than I did and I decided it wasn't worth the time to reduce the entity count.

Hello, It looks Wonderful and luxurious.I really love the combination of wood and metal it looks so classic. I seriously appreciate your work.

Here's another vote for some GOOD wood textures. The only reason I use the seamless textures is because that is all that is available.

Except that there appears to be a little step where the chamfer meets the ends, you could build a sort of sled that holds the leg at 45 degrees and run it past an ordinary rabbet bit. If that step is there you'd have to stop a bit short of the end, move over a bit for the step, do the end, and then clean up the little step with a chisel.
