I'd say that's about a 17

If you have to ask.................

If your skill level isn't top notch across the board, you will have lots of challenges. Your shop tools had better be top notch also, everything sharp, square and true. As already mentioned, this is not a beginner project. I see carving, turning and cabinetmaking. Would be a beautiful piece! I hope it's not one you are trying to bid to make a profit, if asking how hard it is to make.

Dont listen to the other guys......its simple to build.

Moderate difficulty. You will need to be a decent turner. Also the turned legs on the corners of the carcass will need to be relieved requiring jigs etc. The rest looks pretty straightforward unless you want to veneer witch requires its own skillset. I would bid high and not care if I get it though.

In the words of Garth Brooks, “about ten grand”.

I also need to put a concave profile into the top of the leg. Can I use to different size spade bits?

These are pretty basic questions that if you have to ask, you should maybe consider something like a birdhouse before taking a project like this on.

Putting a concave profile in the end of a table leg is a simple question. Yea right.

Dave,
Per your responses and info you gave us, my thoughts are you should first: prove to yourself some skills necessary for this project. If you don't have the skills, learn them and practice them on test pieces until you feel comfortable doing them on expensive wood. You need to understand a lot of different skills and knowledge of wood to tackle this type of project. If you ask basic questions,
expect skilled people to doubt your skills when asking them or just insult you for asking. Have you taken any classes or been employed by a furniture maker?
Most people on this site are professionals and will give advice but a lot have little patience for beginners trying to gain that knowledge. Everyone has been a beginner at some point so please have patience with information others give. As far as the "others" let's give him encouragement and maybe guidance on how best to accomplish what he is asking.
Now my personal opinion, mortise and tenon joints on the leg to stretcher joints and why the weird drilling on top of the legs? That one doesn't make sense to me but what do I know, I've only been building stuff for close to 40 years.

Here's the issue:

"FORUM GUIDELINES: Please review the guidelines below before posting at WOODWEB's Interactive Message Boards (return to top)

WOODWEB is a professional industrial woodworking site. Hobbyist and homeowner woodworking questions are inappropriate."

It seems that many respondents share the view that OP is a hobbyist based on the post. That might or might not be true. However, given that the "rules of the road" are that this is a website for professionals as clearly stated in the guidelines, some snark for what appears to be a hobbyist question is to be expected. There are plenty of woodworking sites for hobbyists and some of us feel like we need to defend the boundaries of WOODWEB.

Non-snarky respondents are being extremely generous.
