This walnut coffee table is light on its black leather feet, the considerable weight of the tinted glass tabletop anchoring the piece to the ground. The leather on the feet is adhered in a twisted formation, not unlike the handle of a badminton racquet whilst the leather stays on the leg tops provide the friction to keep the glass top in place.
#revolvingbookcase in #walnut #Ariel finishing off in the workshop #furniture #craft #bookcase
The jointing and planing flush and sanding are all done by hand at the Bermondsey workshop. The detail and finishing are completed slowly so all imperfections are slowly removed.
Ariel is a totally bespoke bookcase, the design can be adapted to fit most book sizes. I have made nearly a dozen of these, all in walnut (maybe two in oak) and I would love to make one in a native timber such as ash, oak or cherry. I can offer 15% discount to anyone interested in an alernative to American Black Walnut.

New #Walnut #diningtable commission includes #maple wave #artisan #furniture
The new walnut dining table commission includes a maple strip running the length of the table, following the grain of the walnut. To achieve this I use a small router to hand route a line running along the grain of the walnut which is then jigsawed out and finished with a large router. Next I create a template to route a piece of maple to fit snugly. To do this I used a router bush 3 x larger than the router cutter. Looking good!

#desk top boards laid out and arrange for new #foaldesk in #walnut #maker #furniture
Its time for the timber for the 'Foal' writing desk top to be laid out and agonised over for a week. 12 boards have been narrowed down to 8 but what order should they be jointed together?
