1. THAT is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2. I am shaken in 'me boots at the thought of working on the teak and oak woods, let alone doing what you beautifully wrote up above which is equivalent to open heart surgery.

Those PIXs were AWESOME!!!!!

I am going to go hide now............................................... .................................................. ......................... (I am hiding under the oak table.) LOL!!

Well decades of experience helps a bit lol.
Looking at your tables the oak one looks to be solid as the detail on the edge matches the surface grain.
The teak table I would bet is veneer looking at the attached solid edging mitered on the corners,pretty common practice.
With veneers the older the piece the better as the veneers were much thicker,these days it so thin it's nearly impossible to work with any kind of damage.
That helped a lot on the old Kenwood,the veneer was pretty good stuff.
Before and after completing the poor old thing.
It took a long time to source the missing toggle ***** but ebay finally came through with some.

Not only well done my friend, but the shelf supports are pretty cool too.

Did you think abt putting something at the bottom of the legs to stop moisture starting wood rot down there? Like a skid pad or something like that? Maybe where you keep and use it, it is not a concern.

NICE job!!
