Project 18024EZ:

Harvest Table

The Harvest Table invokes the simple charm that makes Early American furniture so appealing. And its precision joinery makes it a woodworking project worthy of the finest craftsman. One unusual detail we've incorporated is the dovetail wedges under the leaves. The wedges stiffen the leaves and prevent warping. The table uses simple turnouts to support the two leaves. You lift the leaf, reach under, and pivot the turnouts into

the open position.

We made the table mostly from pine. The only hardwood parts are the wedges (N),

drawer runner (K), drawer guide (L), drawer stop (M), drawer side (P) and drawer back (Q). The drawer bottom (R) is 1/4" thick oak plywood. The knob (S)

is maple. But the drawer front (O) is pine.
