Maple Extension Table
Furnished content. (from Lumberjocks.com)
This is the first extension table I've built. It is made from soft maple that I milled and dried. It has a lot of curl and tiger stripe figure. I had no idea of that before I started planing the wood. I made the slides from 36 heavy duty drawer slides and then attached them to poplar boards that are screwed to the table top. The table is 42 x 42 with one 12 drop in leaf. I finished with gunstock stain and then lacquer. I'm not a huge fan of using lacquer, but thought I'd try it with this table. The legs are 3 thick and made with a lock miter router bit. I didn't have any 12/4 maple and this looks nicer than just gluing several pieces together I think.
