Mobile Work Table Frame

I've had these Douglas fir 4x4's sitting for half the year. I milled them up this past week and framed out the base for a mobile work/outfeed/assembly table that I can use at Technocopia. The plan is to fill it with four cabinets (two with drawers, one with trays and one for a dust cyclone) so I can bring everything into the workshop with me.

The top will be a torsion box made out of MDF and the cabinets 3/4" plywood. To support the cabinets I ran supports down the middle of each of the kickers, using through tenons to support everything.

The apron and kickers got drawbored with some oak dowels. There's actually no apron on the long edges, as I wanted the space for the cabinets.

Hickory Dining Table Top

The table top is coming along. Both halves and breadboards are ready for tenons/mortises. I'm trying to decide what looks best: sapwood out or heartwood out.

Pine Trays

Another couple of pine trays, this time from a left over floor board from my parent's house. They're the same design as the weathered pine tray , just a little thinner and cleaner. I didn't end up rounding the corners of the their bases this time.

Spalted Maple Valet

His birthday has come and gone so it's safe to say that this was a birthday present for my BiL now. After sanding it up I finished it with my usual method: boiled linseed oil, danish oil, wipe-on polyurethane.
