Description: Modern Lattice Side Table

Wanting a unique side table compatible with my entertainment center, I designed and made this table. The table was fabricated using 4/4 quartersawn white oak. The lattice structure was fabricated from 1-1/2 inch White Oak strips by rough band sawing the modular curved design, finishing the strips on a router table using my designed template jig; thence, cutting the strips in half, reversing one half and gluing the halves together, finishing and mounting them into mortises in the rail frame. The table includes a “trap door” hinged floor shelf to permit accessing articles for display within the table interior. A lamp was made and installed using a light globe and electrical components to highlight the lattice siding. The unit was finished following FW’s “Tabletop Finish”, Issue 214, using Zinsser’s Bulls Eye Seal Coat Shellac, Miniwax’s Clear Polyurethane, and finish buffing with Gel Topcoat. Dlr/11.11.11
