Victorian Kitchen Table
S5 • E1 Jan 2, 1993 30m
Norm builds his version of a perennial favorite, the Victorian kitchen table, using a design that combines the best features of three tables he studied in Britain. Made of century-old "sinker" pine salvaged from river bottoms in the southeastern United States, the table has a deep storage drawer that extends halfway under the table. Norm demonstrates how to incorporate this drawer into the table's design and how to turn the table's sturdy legs on a lathe.
