An expandable dining table & set of chairs I worked on over the last ~18 months.
The chair design is from Jeff Miller’s “Chairmaking & Design” book, the slat-back chair.
The table is also based on a Jeff Miller FWW article. I used metal extension slides from Rockler.
I’m more than happy to answer any questions about it!
Looks great! Wanna make one for me? I love the “simplicity” of the design.
What joint technique did you use? What finish did you use? What’s tool did you use the most for this project?
Everything is mortise & tenon joinery.
Gloss polyurethane finish.
My jointer/planer, table saw, and router met just about every board on the project. However the tool that was used in the most interesting way was the plunge router because I used it to cut all the mortises and tenons.
