As a young man around 40 years ago my father took me to a local lumber jack and horse show in the hills of Appalachia Kentucky. That was when I was introduced to wood turning. It was a treadle style wood lathe with a sapling as in your video. The craftsman was building tables and chairs all from hand tools starting with logs he used no nails, screws, or glue. We watched for hours! I was very impressed! Thank you for reminding me of a great day with my Dad.

The craftsmanship on this is just astounding. This isn't just a piece of furniture this is a work of art. Most people will sit at that table and never have any clue how much skill, knowledge, and hard work went into building that.

I’m an experienced woodworker and have made many laminated forms as well as steamed. I have nothing but praise for your methodology; it’s exactly how my processes have evolved. It was quite late on that you confirmed that your walnut was air dried - that’s quite important as kiln dried timber can/usually does take bends and steaming quite differently. <br><br>Separately to the methodology is the design. That’s very personal but I, personally, think your base is very elegant. Sturdy but not chunky. To my eyes. I’d have that in my house. <br><br>Good clear guidelines so that people can quite easily follow your process.

A true master makes their craft seem easy. Somehow this appeared to be a breeze to fabricate…you’re a genuine virtuoso.

I can only imagine the satisfaction of that completed table only to have to do another one! Great job on both!
