Building a Entry Table With Walnut Cuffs

  • Summary

  • In this episode, I build a custom entry table with walnut cuffs. The main table is made from cherry, and the feet are adorned with decorative walnut cuffs. This custom table was designed and handcrafted for a Colorado Springs client. Summary Sugar Table and Decorative Walnut Cuffs Brian discussed the process of building a Shaker table with decorative walnut cuffs on the feet. He explained how he used a miter gauge set up at an angle and the blade slightly tipped to achieve the desired angle. He also mentioned cleaning up discrepancies with a shoulder plane and a chisel. For the cuffs, he used resawed thin veneers from walnut and glued three sides before using a hand plane to flush them up and carefully installing the fourth piece. He then moved on to the drawers, cutting dados for the bottom and planning the dovetails so that the dados run through the tail, concealing them inside the drawer. Any discrepancies were cleaned up with a hand plane.
