I completed my new dining room table in January. Base is softwood construction lumber died black with black ink covered with poly. Top is 6 cherry boards from McKittrick Lumber. I bought it as 1 inch but these boards were clear on one side and almost totally clear on the underside at a little over 7/8th. So I left them there. I "jointed" the edge of these boards with my DeWalt track saw. The finished top is about 3/16 under 10 feet. Some of the boards were a little over 12 feet. Quite a workout for my little AP-10 planner. I used my domino to make the mortise and tenon joints in the uprights, to shave down the streatcher for the haunched tenon, make the hole for the haunched tenon, and to put in 10mm tenons every foot of the top to keep the boards aligned during glueup.
Finish on the top is Osmo.
