18 legs trimmed, turned and tenoned. Alongside the four fixing nipples on each leg, we have also created a shoulder for the table top to sit against. It might be slight but it can take a fair weight and adds a serious amount of strength to the table structure. The nipples allow us to secure with a mechanical fixing through the sub structure into the surface, amalgamating all components as one. .

Action shot: Cutting a custom tenon. Once turned round the leg requires a little router work. We use the 12 sided polygon now hidden within the leg to centrally locate our tenon template. It has four unique nipples spaced around the circumference; these nipples not only locate the table top but allow us to fix the legs to the surface material. It’s a deep cut at over 60mm done in stages to minimise deflection. .

A beauty of a shot. When twelve sides become one smooth round. We take the faceted polygon and mount onto our fully restored wadkin RS lathe. It’s an absolute dream of a machine, with turning being a favoured process amongst all of the workshop tasks. .

Getting ready for assembly. 12 segments @360 degrees creates a polygon otherwise known as a dodecagon or one single leg. The leg needs to be hollow to allow for a hidden compartment, so we have rebated the top section to give us a deep pocket. We glue all 12 segments at once with a strap and band technique we have perfected over the years. .

In total we had 216 of these components. 216 split into 18 legs makes for 12 staves per leg. 12 staves @15 degrees a side creates a dodecagon. One of the most technically demanding pieces of furniture we have made recently. Supreme accuracy throughout the machining process allowed us a ‘trouble’ free 360 degree glue up for each leg. .

It’s all in details. Both pieces made from olive ash and showing the incredible tonal variety from chalky white to Caramel complemented by the Warm terracotta tiles. Detail shown is our new octagonal table leg with expressed double pinned through tenon. And a chair leg with beautiful rippled texture and another take on a through tenon. Spot the difference!

The all new octagonal refectory table. Detail shot showing the beautiful English CND sycamore table top and the olive ash octagonal leg with bridle joint and through tenon. A tasty and very strong combo for these tall style tables. Tricky to distinguish between the olive ash frame and sycamore top but it’s a combo we have used over a few projects recently. We think it’s A winner. .

Chair frames in process. Trying to take a little complexity out the process we have opted to use an ‘A’ frame style construction. Essentially making 2 sides Lh/Rh using standard joinery and a couple joining sections in between the two frames that use compound tenons. Still tricky as all the holes need to be drilled specific Lh/Rh and at the correct angles. Epic.

Every once and a while an opportunity slightly different from the norm presents itself. Today we welcomed Franz Keilhofer aka the @gingerwoodturner into our workshop. A man on a journey or maybe that’s a journeyman, either way if your into wood turning he is a well respected craftsman and came to find himself with his ‘crew’ filming for a upcoming mini documentary on artisanal craftsmen across Europe who come to meet other fine makers, which is where we come in. It’s always great to meet other makers and especially those who are so specific in their craft. Even better when they come and find you.
Franz has an incredible knowledge of timber and can turn incredibly fine walled vessels and finishes his pieces to a very high standard. He is also a super nice guy. It was a pleasure to have you join us in our workshop. Thanks man. .
