Modern Walnut Dining Table

The Build

This dining table was built for a client who wanted a centerpiece for their modern home. I used 8/4 Black Walnut for the top and legs, ensuring the grain patterns flowed continuously across the tabletop. The design features a subtle taper on the legs and a chamfered under-edge on the top to give it a lighter appearance.

The base joinery features a bridal joint for strength and aesthetics.
