Even though I bought the wood planed on Ricardo.ch is was deforming a bit already so that I had to run it through my thicknesser. The following picture shows the board on the jig I build to plane a board in a thicknesser. More about that particular jig can be found in the upcoming jig category on the future.

Based on the measures from the Sketchup model I cut the necessary pieces in my circular saw. As I did on my previously built kitch shelf, I used the biscuit jointer to joint the boards together. Those joints really help to glue the pieces properly together.

Finally I assembed the boards using the biscuits.

After assemply I sanded with grit 180 followed by 240. I did not add oil of wax finish. I added a 6mm radius to the corners of the table That’s how it finally looks.
