New coffee table

[Trevorturn]

Made this coffee table from a piece of yew i picked up at a wood fair for £20
Still a work in progress as the top still needs a final sanding
Legs made from oak spindles bought in B&Q

Oak spindles? The legs look like square stock in the photo? Is it just a poor angle of view?

I think they're square spindles, otherwise known as posts :wink:
Jokes aside, table looks nice, lovely piece of yew 8)

yes B & Q sell them as stair spindles but they are square with rounded corners

Good old b&q for dodgy descriptions. They would appear to be newel posts if anything stair related

That's a nice looking table.

It looks quite big - what are the dimensions?

What woodfair did you go to?

 

[Trevorturn]

Got the wood from the queen Elizabeth county park event near buster hill its a country crasfts type event but lots of stalls selling wood
The table is 1.4 meters long by 0.4 meters wide (ish)

Nice table.

Re the fair - is ito n frequently? I looked on the Park's website but couldn't see it listed in the events.

Thanks

Though i bought the wood about 2 years ago only just got round to using it
