EDG - Night stand/End Table Build - A Mentoring Project - 26-1

In this Mentoring Project, you will refresh your Pantorouter skills by making an end table or night stand using mortise and tenon joinery. If you don't want to use the Pantorouter, we will focus on hand tools to create the joints. The table will be up to 24 inches in height and up to 18 by 18 inches deep and wide. We will glue up a top to attach to the legs and skirt and sand/finish the table using a food safe finish. The legs can be crafted as desired using Greene and Greene style decorations, tapered or straight legs, and flat or beveled edges to meet your style. The design of the table is open ended and can be a simple straight leg box with a skirt, include or not include a drawer, have a simple top or an inlay top of your choosing. We will design, mill, customize, and assemble everything over three afternoons. Sanding and finishing can be done in the studio or at home based on your needs.

You will have a choice of Walnut or Mahogany which will be provided to build the project. If you wish to use a different wood, you will need to supply your own.
