A pair of Shaker Candle Stand tables made as wedding gifts. One in cherry and one in walnut. The plans for the tables (along with video instructions) were purchased from Epic Woodworking in Canterbury, NH. I am relatively new to turning and the projects allowed me to expand those skills. The plans also called for a bench-held jig (see photos) that provided a guide for the cutting of the dovetail slots for the table legs. Two other jigs were developed and used - one to ensure the table legs were square to the post and the floor, - and a 2nd to rout the outline of the top.
