A pine table with a "floating top".    Tapered legs done with just a handplane.     Drawer front's grain matches the grain in the front apron, since it was cut out from that board.    ***-beading around drawer opening fills in the saw kerf.    Top is a three board glue-up, with a nice curve cut on all four edges.    Front and back aprons have a "double cloud" cut away.    Side aprons are inset, to form a "box" around the drawer.   Top sits on a collar inside this box.  Collar sticks up about 1/2' above the aprons.   Collar also acts as a "kicker" to keep the drawer from tipping down when it is open.    About a good, full weekend end to build, with another three days to apply the stain ( darkWalnut) and three coats of gloss Poly.    I'd post more pictures, IF I knew how.
