I haven't posted anything here for a while, but I've been writing away on my dorset custom furniture blog ... i just finished a post about two conference tables with 24" granite borders that we're working on ... One is 26' x 9' and one is 20' x 8'. They have to break down and be shipped and reassembled 400 miles away in New Jersey when we're finished ... That's 28 pieces of granite about 2' x 4' x 1.125" thick, 12 table top sections, the smallest of which is 4' x 6', 12 veneered panels and two bases one with 9 sections and one with 7 sections. The granite itself will weigh about 3500 lbs and it's all cantilevered on steel supports with the bases only under the center veneered sections .. Lots of engineering, lots of collaboration ... coming down the home stretch now ...
