Shaker Side Table
Build a delicate version of this iconic round stand.
The Shakers designed and built a variety of beautiful round stands, but this one is the ultimate. Its slightly concave tapering post, thin top, and light, half-crescent legs are the epitome of classic Shaker design. The design has been refined over several versions until it is near to the original as possible. With a lathe and careful attention to detail, this classic is not hard to build. The post is turned and the curved legs are dovetailed into it. The top is a simple round with a smoothly curved edge profile.

I have (with Mr Becksvoort's help!!) made 3 of these. My daughter has one, my son has one, and I have one. They are all well loved. Here's a photo of mine. Thank you so much Mr. B!)
