I thought this was an interesting perspective on this table. I built it a number of years ago when I studied furniture and cabinetmaking. This photo, taken by my 4-1/2 year old daughter, shows a hint of the figured maple top on this table. The drawer fronts are coloured with multiple layers of aniline dye and the whole piece is finished with water based laquer. This original design, based on Shaker pieces, is used as a computer desk and is easily customized.
