Nested tables (two pairs)

 

[Cordy]

Super craftsmanship there Naz
What are the dimensions ?

 

[Aggrajag]

I like those Matt, lovely highlighting on the legs and a great top surface.

I went back and rounded off all the corners with a spokeshave, here's the completed stool finished with de-waxed shellac.

5½'' across x 3'' high, it's all I had left after turning a grand-canyon-type split out of the blank log. :-D

Excellent work, that'll be a treasured item in your household for many, many years.

Finished this bird box that someone has requested... Just in time to be too late to use this year. :-D

That's so ingenious and so inventive, and actually the build looks every bit as clever as the design. Well done!

I like what you've done there Matt. You've made some bold design decisions, like the very high chamfers on the bottom of the legs and the groove that runs around the legs, and you've executed them with real conviction. In doing so you've unified them, and made it clear that they're a set even though the sizing is so obviously different.

IMO that's where nests of tables often fail, they just don't call out that they're a family, and as a result when they're deployed in a room can just look messy and disjointed.

Well done!

Thanks custard, that's some lovely praise

He's right as well, I can't say I've ever studied nested table but it all makes sense, including the praise.

I made a pair of tiny drilling tools today.

 

[NazNomad]

I thought you'd made a huge coin first of all. :-D



Made this for sanding inside small hollow forms - I ain't shoving my pinkies in here.

Tight fit on a Dremel flap-wheel shaft (and most other Dremel accessories if the need arises).

 

[woodpig]

Nice idea Naz. Flap wheels on my shopping list ...

I bet you're busy coming up to Christmas. I always say you're alright as long as you got your Elf.
