Limbert Coffee Table: The Shelf
Start making the shelf parts, with the center section first.
Feb 18, 2016
In this video workshop, master furniture maker Kevin Rodel shows you how to build his elegant interpretation on a classic Limbert design. In this project series, you’ll learn how to use efficient building strategies, get gap-free through-tenon joinery, and dress up your furniture with pierced panels.
In this episode, Rodel starts to make the shelf for the table, beginning with the wide center section. This section fits mortises in the end panels and is mortised for a locking wedge.

Where would we be without a machine shop?
Beautiful work..... great design. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Hmm, Pushrod: "Where would we be without a machine shop?" Umm, in the woodshed? [Sorry. Couldn't resist.]
I remember snucking a couple of files into my boat building class and almost being ordered to leave. I was told that was working in metal. We had to learn to do that sort of thing with the chisel.
