Fretwork Table Scroll Saw Pattern.

This table will make a nice flower stand or display any small items. The table stands 26 inches tall. The top is 14" X 14".

I tried to keep construction as simple as possible. Instead of using mortise and tenons to attach the legs to the top assembly I just capture the legs in place with side boards. Complete assembly instructions are included in the pattern. Make sure you read the instructions thoroughly before you begin cutting the parts. Some pattern parts are not printed full size. The full size pattern pieces are printed in sections and will need to be cut and taped together.

This project will use more tools than just your scroll saw. The legs were cut on the scroll saw. Of course the fret work was cut on the scroll saw. All other pieces were cut to size with a table saw. You will need to cut or sand 45 degree miters in the top assembly. If you don't have a table saw this project will be difficult to complete.

The legs of this table a pretty delicate. The project should not be placed in a high traffic area. I could have beefed them up with stretchers but I liked the delicate look.

The pattern is over 3 megs so if you have a slow connection be patient while it downloads.
