Dressing table

#1

Post by Bushwhacker »

Made this table for Sandra as a Christmas Present.
The legs of both the table and the stool are made from 2 2x12s glues together, then ripped on the band saw to take some of the weight off of it.
Had a heck of a time finding a mirror that lights up and one that i could cut down to hinge into the desk.

AS you can see, she has it loaded with STUFF, so I guess she likes it.

Maybe one of you guys can straighten my pictures up for me. They seem to straighten out once you click on each picture.


I added a stringer across between the legs of both the table and the stool to keep it together. then pinned it with a piece of doweling I made.
The table and the stool are on wheels so she can move it around if you wants to.
