I had some beautiful Maple that came from a picnic table that my parents used as a kitchen table. I don’t believe the table top was much more than 36”x48” but somehow six of us sat for meals.
I laminated two pieces to achieve a 1 1/2” thickness. The length is about 8”. Having a tabletop bandsaw, oscillating tabletop belt sander, tabletop tablesaw, and a variety of hand power tools – and of course a couple of nice planes made quick work cutting and shaping the compound angles. Rounded over the exposed edges.
rough blank
cut to shape, playing with spaced inwale.
Nice tight fit all around. Will screw and epoxy in place.
exposed edges rounded, sanded, ready for sealer coat of epoxy.
