ABOUT THIS VIDEO
In this video I'm building a new dining table using a massive Claro Walnut Slab. I wanted to try my own version of a river table, which let's be honest, isn't really a river table. And I wanted to make a table that would look just as good without a slab top, but looks even more awesome with the slab top. And I have to say, I think I nailed it on this one. Check it out and see for yourself!
