Equipment Table - Hickory - Tung Oil based finish
MountainHaven
created an office equipment table for a client who needed to improve the
utility of their office space by adding an office equipment table to the
workspace. They also wanted the equipment table to blend in with their current
office furniture. MountainHaven
designed a table using a hardwood species, design style, hardware and finish
type to ensure the new table would blend in with the existing pieces already
in the office space.

The client opted for an enclosed table style
to enable out of sight storage. The view of the table shows the table
dry-fit without the side panels, back panel, door and bottom shelf
installed. The bottom shelf is merely resting at an angle atop the bottom
rails of the four side frames. The first coat of finish has been applied to
the top shelf. The top shelf edging is merely held in place with tape. |

The panel style selected by the client is a
flat panel rather than a raised panel. This blends quite well the the desk
in the office space. This view shows the equipment table with the front,
side and back panel assemblies completed and ready for finish. The door is
also assembled, but has not yet been fitted to the table. The table top and
bottom shelf are not yet permanently assembled onto the table frame. |

The finish work has been completed on the
table base, door, interior shelf and table top. The edging around the table
top awaits one last coat of finish, after which the table top will be
affixed to the base. The table hardware is an exact match to that on the
office desk.. |

This view of the equipment table reveals the
interior of the table. The lower shelf is of solid hickory. The table top
and lower shelf have been installed in a manner that will enable cross grain
expansion and contraction with the changing of the seasons without stressing
either the table frame or the table top/shelf. This will avoid splitting of
the table top/shelf and will keep the expansion of these pieces from
shattering the joinery of the supporting base and frame. |
