Curly Wormy Maple End Table and Coffee Table

[blbradford]

I went to "The Hardwood Store" in Gibsonville and found some really cool "Curly Wormy Maple". They also had ONE sheet of 3/4" plywood veneer Birds-eye Maple. I used the ply wood for the bottom shelve. I think they came out very nice.

I used Waterlox for the finish:


The grain is way cool.!

I filled the worm holes with epoxy before sanding.

They would great in just about any room. That is some really nice wood that snagged.

Well done.

What is the best way to plane that kind of grain? I have a bunch I hope to use for end tables one of these days.

Awesome lumber and nice design :icon_thum but... I see someone crashed into your shop with a car and just about took out your TS. Odd thing I see no front end damage on that car :icon_scra
