Many Firsts

Things are hopping in the WoodNet Woodworking Forums. Here's a second mahogany project posted this week. The coffee table was built by member dvan1901, and he says in building it, he encountered a lot of firsts:

My first time using mahogany... first cabriole legs, scalloped corners on the top, double bead on the top, shaped aprons. The finish is a wet sanded BLO with a wet sanded Watco Dark Walnut and 5 coats of a wipe on poly.

Great job. More photos and discussion in the forum.

Ash Coffee Table

WoodNet Forums member ash has just posted a couple photos of his latest project, a traditional coffee table, made, not surprisingly, of ash.

This is my version of a classic coffee table. Wood is northern ash, stain is Gemini custom made + NGR tints. Finish is SW Pre-catalyzed over vinyl sealer.
