American black walnut. Finished and delivered, client very happy! Thanks to all on here who gave advice on this one.

Good looking table =D>
Got to ask, but is that a special (see expensive) model of the Millenium Falcon ?

Original 70s toy. The chap has had it since he was a kid, his wife had the table made for his 40th birthday as he's star wars mad apparently.

He sounds like my kind of guy. There ain't nothing more valuable than memories.

Nice table. That toy is worth a bit now days still looks to be in pretty mint condition.

That looks excellent (I still have my original MF, still in the box too) maybe I should do something similar instead of it languishing under my bed, perhaps a wall mount version - woodmonkey could you point me to the advice you got on making this please?

Here's the original thread

There was also another one about the magnets which I can't find right now. Let me know if you have specific questions and I'll try to answer them.

Thanks for the link, can I ask why the change from clear sides to filled panels? Was it a client choice or difficulties with the build?

 

[Woodmonkey]

Clients choice, which I disagreed with at the time but came round to it once it was finished.

Fast ship? You've never heard of the millennium falcon.

Great job
