Hi All,
Anyone whose been in my photo gallery knows I've been into Shaker designs for a loooong time. Most of those designs derived from Thom Moser's book "Measured shop drawings for American Furniture". I just adapted his design style and construction methods to thing I wanted to build.
I decided to try something different and sketched up something like I think Shaker would be in the 21st Century . Came up with this little display/foyer table after a lot of doodling.
I've never taken any kind of woodworking or design classes, so I probably did lots of things wrong. Found some dark curly cherry and a nice brown spalted birds-eye maple board in my stash. Used wedged through tenons on the aprons, pearwood for wedges. The cross members are walnut.
I think I'll call it "Shaker on Steroids". :gar-La;
Design suggestions gratefully accepted
Don
