@tgun1976 Hi and thanks for your comment.
My first thought is that it wouldn't 'work' works as well with rounded leaves... The operation of extension might function fine but, aesthetically, I think it would look odd when the table is in its 'closed' position, with the two outer curved leaves sat beneath the centre, which would have to have straight ends so that the three leaves butt up together neatly.
Hope that makes sense! That's only my gut reaction so far.

could this be made with the rounded leaves?

Absolutely, there is no reason why this table could not be made longer. Although, you may want to look at the proportions of the extending leaves in relation to the main centre leaf.
This one was 1m long, extending to 1.5m (250mm leaves at each end). And this 'mechanism' is one of the most convenient for a small table like this (other methods require more clearance space below).
Thanks again for your comments.

Hi and thank you for your message.
You are right; the table top is not fixed down and is allowed to 'pivot' so the outer leaves can can slide in and out. In itself, this can cause problems when using solid timber as there is nothing to prevent the boards from cupping...
If doing this again, I would look use MDF (lipped on all four edges) and cut my own veneers from English oak. On a sheet of pre-veneered MDF, there is very little character in the grain, hence why I would rather cut my own!

Your table is beautiful. The table top itself seems to pivot as you push and pull the extensions. Does this mean that the main table surface is not fastened to the table? it seems to be the reverse of how most expanding tables are set up. Could you make the table longer if you wanted? Traditional or not, I think you have a great take on this concept, well done!
