Years ago, Nicole (Marc's wife) came home with a crappy set of nesting tables from Home Goods. The design inspired Marc to build a reimagined set of tables that feature an Asian influence and proper joinery. These tables will work as occasional tables, plant stands, or simply used as weapons to crush the old crappy tables into pieces.
Large Table: 16"L x 14"W x 21 1/4"H
Small Table: 12 1/2"L x 11 3/4"W x 18 1/4"H
We have templates available for this project including the leg and rail shapes. You can purchase those here while supplies last.
This project shows the construction of two circular ring sizes. You can make these any number of ways but the two ways shown in the video series will be using the lathe and using a routing template. Circle Routing Templates are available here.
