A mid century modern oval table

ok ... it's been a while here ... almost two months since my last blog post.  but it's not
cause we haven't been doing anything, but rather that we have been too busy ...

 

here's an inspiration photo we got from the client ... we were tasked to simplify
 it a bit, make seating for 8, and then figure out how to build it ... 
from the drawing that i will post later, on the cnc, we cut a mockup mdf
top and an insert for a steel pieces that would attach to
the legs and theoretically make the whole thing strong and stable.
we got that and then just made all the parts from some
 nice walnut from our friends at Irion Lumber
we got it all together, but before we did the finishing, we 
realized that the top was 'shaky' due to the fact that there were no real
'aprons' up by the top to firm the structure up.  sam rolled a simple 
1/4" x 1" piece of steel that firmed things up considerably
good to go ... off to boston ...
an interesting, (and a little challenging), project ...
