This table started off as rough sawn cherry boards and through machinery and hand tools, I made this dining table fitted together with accurate joinery and no mechanical fasteners. This table is inspired by the excellent work of Mr. Ishitani @ISHITANIFURNITURE. I added my own design and construction modifications. The tapered sliding dovetail key used to secure the stretcher is worth watching in my opinion as I have not seen this type of joinery anywhere except a piece made by George Nakashima in a dining table he built in 1962.
