Nicely done. Great choice on the wood combo.

You should put a coat of paint on the prototype and list it on Craigslist.

Great looking table.
The one with walnut and maple looks good too.

Great job! A definite improvement over its predecessor.

Your Transtint finish schedule really brought out the beauty in the Curly Maple.

Very nicely done!

Wow. That's spectacular. I love how the simple design showcases the amazing grain in the maple.

Curly Maple Table Finish: used only on the maple, not the walnut.

Die was Trans Tint Dye- "Dark Vintage Maple"  in alcohol. 
(I just eyeballed this till it looked about right then tried it out on a scrap beforehand. )

Died with above. Let dry then sanded with 120 grit
Die again with Trans Tint Dye- Dark Vintage Maple in alcohol
Let dry then sanded with 150 grit
Coated with Watco Natural. Let soak in for 10 minutes
then wipe off and let dry.

Assembled with legs and applied 3 coats Arm-R-Seal satin finish to everything.
Scuff sanding with 400 grit and/or 0000 steel wool between coats.
Nice table, but Dye not Die
