This is a project I did around 2010 as a tribute to my late father who passed in 2008. My father had built several similar tables when I was really young and he gave most of them away to friends. He had kept one but over the years the tail and head broke off and were lost and the tabletop was broken and lost. All I had left was a base and a couple of old pictures of the originals.

I tried my best to mostly replicate the original table based on the pictures and the piece I still have but with a few adjustments to the table top and the tale so they didn’t stick out quite so much. The originals were made of painted pine wood. This one is build from birch plywood and coated in clear lacquer.
