This is a dining table I just surprised my wife with. It’s 1 1/4" steel tubing frame. The patina is steel gray and antique. The wood is urban salvaged spalted California Sycamore that is inset. The wood piece on the legs is connected to a 1/2″×1/8" flat bar that is set at a 45 degree angle. Cut the same angle on the 1 1/4 square piece of wood an slid it on. She wants to keep it. #inDistressed

Looks great! Very unique. How did you account for wood movement with the metal frame?

I love multimaterial projects. Great use of both materials! The finish on the steel looks great too…

Projects like this is why digging through the archives is so important! Added to my collection for later use. Thanks!
