During the Home Craftsmen Forum sponsored November 20th
Saturday Workshop, we'll explore Queen Anne style. Our pattern is a simple pine table plan that appeared in
Mechanix Illustrated twenty years ago. (There is a fee for the material
kit. Cost yet to be determined.) The design of the MI table,
along
with the right tools,
makes our project for November relatively easy. The  cabriole
legs shown aren't hard to make because carving and turning isn't required.
In a five-hour
session, we will use the Westfield high
school shop's band saws and spindle sanders to shape a set of
legs and a table's apron. (The school's rasps and
spokeshaves are available, but bring your own if you have them. Students don't
leave them very sharp.) Turned pad feet are optional if you're comfortable with a
lathe, but the table looks just as nice with a three pointed foot as shown in
the picture. By Saturday afternoon, you will be ready to take your project home to finish sanding
the legs and to add your own top, which won't be supplied with the material kit.
