This dining table was build of Pacific Dogwood.  It took roughly 125 hours to complete and seats six or ten with the two extensions at the ends.  The metal full-extension slides are clad in wood and secure to the leaves with bolts.  While not as easy a conversion as other methods, it certainly is strong.  The entire table can easily be lifted by the two extensions.  It was completed December 24, 2007 and delivered that evening with the aid of two big strong men.  The finish is a tung oil with UV protection.

Salut,
