Farmhouse Table

Post by JEBar » Sun Dec 03, 2017 12:36 pm

something over a year ago our oldest son completed his Residency in St Louis and moved his family back home .... they sold most of their furniture prior to moving .... since then they have built a home 3 miles from our place .... his younger brother and he have almost completed building a cedar 10' X 4' Farmhouse Table shown below .... they still have to sand and finish it .... we think it is really going to be pretty .... their goal is to have it finished in time for our family's gathering at Christmas

Looking good. How many does it seat?

Anything you make yourself, always adds to the value, then the table tells family stories for years to come.
Very nice.
Cedar is a soft impressionable wood, and will scar, but those will be tales.

the cedar came from our youngest son's business .... it was part of a display that was due to be discarded when it was no longer needed .... they have built 2 .... the youngest son's is smaller .... the larger one should seat 10 -12 people .... after sanding I believe they are going to apply a pretty good coat of polyurethane

Looks great. Fill it with a feast and build some memories.

Very nice! I always liked a few knots in a project.

one of their goals is to create family heirlooms that will be passed down in their families .... I strongly suspect that goal will be accomplished
