Our family is going to soon be outgrown of our current kitchen table. There are three kids, and once the little one can start sitting in a regular seat, we'll need a larger surface.
As part f our ongoing home improvement saga, I'm planning on making this project part of my Christmas present to my wife. From looking at plans on the plansnow website for it, I feel I have a good handle on the base. The top is where I need some advice.In the article, they did a plank and cleat, a glued slab, and a breadboard with a ply center.
Our current knock-down table has to be at least 30 years old, handed down to me from my parents. If we can find room to store it, I'm going to refinish it and hand it down again. If I want the new table to last that long, which way would you do in making the top? I believe with the addition of my planer, I now have all the tools I need to make something that will look great.
Thanks in advance.
