I posted this on Reddit awhile back when I finished the build… but thought I would share on here in an effort to get to know people! Hope that’s allowed.
Mitered joints with biscuits.
Here’s a close up:
I think this is absolutely a chance to repost some stuff. I was on Reddit and didn’t see it the first time around :)
It looks great! How did you source/prep the slab? I have some Oregon maple from a friend’s Alaskan sawmill that’s air-dried which I made a coffee table out of, and the remainder of which is going to be a desk soon.
Sounds awesome can’t wait to see pics. Hopefully you’ll share.
I sourced the lumber from a little shop here in Idaho. It was rough sawn and thankfully straight enough. I don’t have a planer so I just sanded for days until my arm fell off.
Looks great! The waterfall edge was an excellent choice with that grain.
Woah! Good looking! Congrats!
Looks awesome, are the biscuits aligned vertically inside the miter or perpendicular to the mitered faces? I am thinking about making something like this and trying to think through the joinery.
Perpendicular to the miter.

Feel free to ping me if you have any questions. The mitered joints was.theost difficult part of the build. It helps to build a jig so you can get a real good clamp on there.
Thanks! I feel like I’ve been overthinking the design, wondering if maybe I need dowels or hidden screws or something. I love the look of this.
Thanks! Good luck with your upcoming project.
I was checking out Beehaw and saw this table. I recognized it from Reddit! Excellent work. I hope others follow us here.
Hey! Awesome, thanks for commenting!
