BenLeacock™ Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 yo some of you might remember a while ago i was asking for help to get the right wood, well i managed and have made my coffee table out of american walnut Just thought id share it with you! Comments pleasee.... As you can see just inside the legs it looks darker, this is because ive only given it one coat of oil because you cant really see throught the coasters cause its so dark the holes in the corners are for coasters that ive built in, this is the design etc ( there not in straight though, cause the oils still drying ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
