Sofa Table

I'm building a sofa table to go behind my sectional couch. I have to have it built because I want it to be the same length as the couch section (91") and that's too big to buy.

The construction foreman offered to purchase the lumber for me, since I don't really have the means of carrying something that big home from the store. He's also going to cut the pieces to length for me. All I'll have to do is put it together.

He had a book of veneers and I looked through it today, trying to decide what kind of wood I want to use. I picked Zebrawood as my first choice, Rosewood as my second, and Mahogany as my third. It's all going to depend on what's available and what the cost is. We'll see.
