This is my Ash butcher block dining table with a bench. It’s 90″×42″×30. It’s 2 3/4 thick,

Wow, that is just awesome. If that is solid maple, I hope that the floor is reinforced. In the first pic it looks like the top is cantilevered. Second pic the top is evened. Is there a trick top this?

Tor and Odin are the greatest of gods.

The base and bench is solid Ash. For the top, the center I used 1 3/8 lumber. And the sides 2 3/4 boards. Helps with the weight. But still not light. The top sites hang over the end 15 1/5" on each side

I’m in California, so I like to call it earthquake proof.

Very nice , finish looks great.

I remember a commercial (I think everybody does) Where's the beef?
Found it. 😁
Nothing like a solid table.  Well done.

Figuring out how to do something you have never done is what makes a good challenge.

solid is right ! i wonder how much that thing weighs ? love the design.

working with my hands is a joy,it gives me a sense of fulfillment,somthing so many seek and so few find.-SAM MALOOF.
