I recently finished this Nakashima inspired side table. The top slab is butternut and the base slab and foot are maple.

Always loved these types of tables. You did real great op

I've always wanted to try live edge stuff, and this could be a great idea!

Absolutely gorgeous, about how much weight can it support?

I haven’t tested haha. You can’t see it in the picture but there’s a horizontal support under the top that’s bridle jointed into the slab leg so it’s pretty sturdy. I can stack it with books and a laptop and that’s good enough for me
