Padauk & Cherry Coffee Table

Padauk & Cherry Coffee Table

Came across an incredible set of Padauk boards that were long enough for two tables. One of the tables is this coffee table, made with a Cherry base, the table features 2″ Aprons with straight legs and a lower shelf.  Padauk can lose it’s brilliant color over time so I finished it with 3 coats of Shellac as a base layer and a top coat of High Performance Semi-Gloss Polyurethane.  

Materials

Padauk, Cherry

Project Notes
