Steps

• 
  Routed mortises with a handheld router.
• 
  Created the tenons by routing them along the long edges and cutting them with the bandsaw along the short edges.
• 
  Impregnated the slabs with Halböl (50% boiled linseed oil, 50% white spirit).
• 
  The linseed oil intensifies the wood color.
• 
  Glued the slabs together and screwed perpendicular slabs underneath for stability. Screwed the finished tabletop onto the metal frame of an old table.

  The finished table.
