This is a simple model of a home made downdraft table, modeled from plans on the Rockler website, designed to match their downdraft table panels. Thought I'd share it, just because.

RE: How to Map Rattan Furniture
This is as close as I know how to get it. It isn't really correct, because the texture maps to each face individually it breaks up the pattern into little triangular shapes.

A flush door, even hollow-cored, has solid wood as rails and stiles and mid-rail/blocking out...
I knew it had some solid wood for the door hardware, based on the image it looks as if the solid wood pieces at the top and bottom of the door are roughly the same dimension all the way around. I suppose it would depend on manufacturer but that would work.

I believe, after installing this table, you will eventually be adding legs to the free corners due to sagging and deflection, cyclical loading, wood shrinkage, and localized material fatigue at the fasteners.
@Mitcorb- The table top has an overhang of 1" on the sides and 4" in the front. If anything wouldn't the sagging occur in the unsupported span in the middle? Which really gets back to the question at hand, how big of a span can I have without additional supports?
@DaveR Of course, that makes sense. I don't know what I was thinking. Thanks.
@TIG the problem for me with a hollow core door is the attachment points for the lower supports are going to be in the middle of the face of the door. I would need to find a way to attach the door without protruding through the top of the door panel.

RE: Arm Aperture for Drill Press
There isn't a video specifically for the arms, but they are shown being used in this video about his drill press table.

The image saves lazy guys from DL'ing a model without seeing it. Yours looks nice; maybe a little thin in the scroll back rest members? You've got the important to me interlock for breakdown / portability that the master's original post lacked. Perhaps we'll hear from him.
Yea, you're probably correct. It is only 1" as drawn.

RE: Cantilevered Table design question
Excellent, thanks for the feedback.
Not sure if it matters if the 6X6 spacing is on center or edge to edge, I drew it up as edge to edge, but easy enough to change. Definitely a lot more work to make it this way, but I want it to stay on the wall, soooo I guess that's a good trade off .
Thanks again.

Cantilevered Table design question
Hey Guys, I'm putting together a craft room for my wife and part of the design is an area for gift wrapping. I wanted to build the table out of 2 sheets of 1" or 3/4" plywood laminated together. The question becomes how much support would a table like that need. Im going to attach my model of the table itself it you want to have a look. I'm also going to attach the whole model of the room, so if you have any suggestions that would be awesome.
Thanks
JonPS Sorry for the size of the model, I got it as small as I could. Thanks again

Arm Aperture for Drill Press
Hey guys, I just made a mock up of the Arm aperture I saw in one of Ron Walters videos. He has two of these mounted to his drill press, on either side of the table. Because he doesn't have any plans for this piece I estimated the dimensions but I think its pretty close. Thought I'd share it with you guys.
PS please forgive the colors, they help to keep the dimension of the pieces straight when I put it all together. Cheers!

Used to do Medieval recreation for fun, these chairs were popular. The 2 x 12 chair variant was very similar, and quite portable. Here's an example:
Simple model of the picture. Not exactly accurate but it is made from 1 2x12x8 board
