eWoodShop - Goldberg Hall Table - First afternoon's work

[Swingman]

Nothing mysterious/exotic ... 3/4" A1 Walnut Plywood (Domestic), selected and cut for best grain effect.

[Greg Guarino]

Ah. It's ply. Now I understand. Thanks.

[Ed Pawlowski]

Don't be afraid to use plywood in the right application. It can look every bit as good as the solid wood and be more stable. It woks well with a solid wood edge trim.

[Greg Guarino]

I'm curious. Does this mean that tables of similar design were not made before plywood (and chipboard, mdf, etc.) existed?

[Leon]

May be not, at least not with any great results. AAMOF plywood has been around for thousands of years, the ancient Egyptians invented it IIRC.
