I've always been impressed with the details of a piecrust tea table, but never felt like it was in my skill level. Then one day I bought the book "Making a Piecrust Tea Table," by Tom Heller & Ron Clarkson. About that time, a friend gave me several timbers of twelve quarter Hondourous Mahogany and said, "Make something cool out of this." I knew what I had to do. To this day, I can't believe I carved this table. You never know what you can do until you try.
