This is my first piece of furniture with hand-cut mortise-and-tenon joinery. It's far from perfect, but I managed to hide most of the imperfections inside the frame.
I finished it with 50/50 beeswax and mineral oil.
I think the table top and long aprons are cherry, with two strips of what may be oak in the table top? It was in the miscellaneous pile at my community workshop, so your guys is as good as mine. The legs and short apron are sapele, which is probably my favorite wood when it's finished, it's unbelievably lustrous in person.
Happy to answer an questions, otherwise, I just wanted to share the first thing I've ever made that I didn't finish and immediately tear apart all the mistakes I made, I'm genuinely pleased with this one!
Also, if you think those corners are bad, look at this torture device I made earlier this year
It's hard maple, and those real thin edges are basically blades if you're walking by. It's a genuine hazard
JFC use a wood router man!
I eased the edge by hand with sandpaper, but I wanted it to look as unadulterated as possible. It's a trade-off, for sure
