Assembling my Demi-Lune table from my Epic Woodworking course with Tom McLaughlin
I went on 5 day woodworking course with Tom McLaughlin in his shop in New Hampshire ( https://www.epicwoodworking.com/ ). Here we all are in his shop listening to
Tom explain the finer points of making the inside front mortise parallel with front.

spoiler alert - Tom had invented a clever jig with the plunger router that solved the problem.
Anyway, after 5 days, we have completed all the joinery, but hadn't finished shaping the legs, let alone finishing the parts. This is a dry assembly of my table just before I left:

I did the final assembly yesterday - here is a movie of the assembly https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=615sEBgHtUM , with some mild clamp comedy that only a fellow woodworker would appreciate. I also had numbered all the parts, but somewhere in the finishing process I erased all the numbers, so there was some mild confusion about which part went where ....
And here is the final beauty shot

Enjoy ;)
