To build a table out of one piece of wood is incredible workmanship and technique. I have passed this on to several craftspeople.

It is actually white oak  :).

I know but I have no experience with bending white oak.  I have bent a lot of red oak though.

Joe,

I had a guy ask me today how red oak would steam bend.  I had no idea as I have never done that.  Thanks for the insight.

If it is a  freshly cut board from a log (within several hours of being cut) and it has nice straight grain if you have a piece of leather or metal strapping to back it up you can wrap a 1"x1" in a spiral around around a pop can.
