We recently came up with a rough drawing of a table leg design we can adapt from our current design. We want to eventually design it with 6 or 8 legs but were starting with 4 to see how the lines work out visually and how the stability is.
Above you can see the template we've created that will be the beginning for every piece of this table. Below we have rough cut out all the pieces, from 1.5'' think walnut and with a center post that is 3'' x 3''. Notice the tung and grove joinery between the center post and center leg sections. Sam Maloof came up with this design from what I understand, not only is it beautiful when were all done, but also about as strong as you can get one reason our furniture will challenge the test of time.
Initial layout of the parts before assembling the joints, below all parts glued up rough sanded and initial shaping via the router has been done, let me tell you there's much more work still to be done!
