Table Aquarium

Here's the latest word in a modern home aquarium. The design presented here is built around a 12" x 12" glass block. Glass blocks come in a variety of sizes in clear and wavy glass. This table is suitable for an end table or occasional table, having shelf space for books, ash trays, etc. It is made from birch and finished natural. The drawing shows the details and dimensions of the table. The table top is ³/4" birch fitted into a frame, or a solid glue-up. The legs are cut and tapered on the band saw and then planed smooth. A jig clamped to the drill press table makes it an easy matter to drill dowel holes for fastening the legs to the table. Apply oil and rub down well. Shellac and more rubbing is then followed by an even coat of a good quality varnish. PW
