First table

[MEdwards]

I built this purple heart table for my 5 year old granddaughter for Christmas. She loves pink and purple. My first attempt at a table.

Great job Maurice! Panel seams are nice and tight. Finish looks awesome. Nice profile on the edges. Are the legs tapered? What kind of joinery did you do between apron and legs? How is top secured to apron?

Excellent work Maurice.

The legs are not tapered. Did not want to try that on the first attempt. The top is joined to the apron with pocket hole screws. The legs are fastened with the same, with two coming in from each side. I wanted the apron to be a bit larger to gain some stability, but did not have enough wood to make it any larger. I hope I don't have to go back and reinforce the legs some way.
