Dear Makers, 

I just wanted to share with you all woodworking aficionados​​​​​​​ one of my latest projects: My Dining Table.

I moved 4 years ago from France to the US and I had the opportunity to buy a house. After months of research (Online and in Furniture Stores) for the perfect Dining Table, I came to the conclusion that the best would be to design and build it.

Here is the result:

Storyboard

• Jointed and Edge and a Face:
