Hi everyone,

I am finishing oak dining table and now I need to round the edges. I am uncertain how to solve the joining of the horizontal and vertical pieces.

How would you recommend to do it?

Thanks for any suggestion.

Hi,

  Since it is only a 2mm radius just get as close as you can with the router then do the corner by hand with file or sand paper.

Hi Mike

It is dead easy but I would use a radius cutter (the opposite of rounding over) for the legs and rails...

Run the cutter to within (say) 45 mm of the end of the rail or leg. There is no need to run it all the way to the end.

Here is the only photo that I could find but I used a champfer cutter:

For your table top just run the rounding over cutter through to the end of each edge.

Great hints. I’ll think of it and do some some test.

Thanks a lot

Thats a nice look on those legs.  Stopping the profile a couple inches before the top.  I like that.

Agree with Peter on this, it’s commonly used in Europe, and makes it look far more hand crafted.
No need to have the round over or chamfer all the way into the corners.

Nice legs, Peter! (That would be those belonging to the table [big grin]) - Table looking good too.

Hi, thanks for the photos.

It’s nice but it has “country look” to me and in this case I am looking for more functionalist style.

I will probably cut the outer edge fully from bottom to the board and the inner as you suggested.

Have a great day.
