Outstanding work and just a beautiful piece of walnut. Could you maybe post a picture of the base? I am going to start a new table myself out of some curly maple and was thinking of a trestle type base and I`m looking for some ideas.

I was asked to post pics of the base. On the base foot i used 12/4 so there wouldn't be a glue line. One if the nice things about cutting your own tree is getting it sawed the way you want. If i had to buy the walnut for this table I doubt i would have been able to afford the boards

Thanks for all the kind comments. Really enjoyed building this table. It was fun taking the time to do justice to that beautiful walnut

That table is a thing of beauty, and you should be proud to have made it. I agree you won't walk into a furniture store and find that table in a catalog. Nice job.
