Woodworker + Drummer = Drum Top Table
Just as my mantel clock and liquor cabinet designs eventually found some curves, my family of small tables has now been rounded out.  At 24" high, these drum top tables are the same height as my cocktail tables, and with a 15" diameter, they would just fit within those square tops (which are 15 1/2" x 15 1/2").

Proportions were even more critical on this one, and therefore the full scale prototype got ripped apart quite a few times. Eventually, I arrived at these dimensions, and parked the model by the door of my studio so that I'd glance at it every time I walked by. It passed the walk-by test.


You'll see that the two top right views show quite different character. The wood for these two tops was purchased in a lot as curly maple, but not uncommonly, some of it ended up not having the text book rippled pattern of curly; some of it sort of has the dots of birdseye maple, some sort of has the slow wave of quilted maple...   therefore, before I get into trouble with any hardcore curly maple connoisseurs, I'm going to make a point of calling these tops "figured maple", and send out a pic of the intended glued up top for approval when someone orders a table. It's more work to do this, but I like people to understand the randomness of grain patterns and possibly change their impression of what beautiful wood is.     Sorry, am I losing you? Getting a little to woodie there. Guilty as charged.
