Homemade Table

We used knotty alder for this table. It’s a remake of the West Elm Table. This room needed a custom size so Vic made this all by hand. To start you’ll need a biscuit joiner, this is a machine to attach two boards together without screws.

Once the long boards were glued together, it was time to shape the table. A extra piece of wood was added to the underside along the edges. At this point it was squared off rectangle. Vic used a hand planer to peel the edge wood off so it was more of a oval edge. This took lots of time.
