i spotted this table design a few years back in american woodworker, plans are on their website
lots of jigs and router trammel works!!
the cedar is really nice stuff, it came from a cottage i renovated a couple of years ago. the cottage was built 70 or so years ago and framed entirely in 2 by 3 cedar. the growth rings are really tight,, so that all four faces appear 1/4 sawn. all the pieces for top so far are actually 1/4 sawn
here is the outer ring glued up, 12 segments with splines

the pie shaped centre section added
Click image for larger version
just one of the router setups, this one cuts the outer ends of the centre section pieces

i'll get some pics, of the various setups, but detailed info is in the AW plans. i'll find the link to them
next step is space the centre section pieces out, glue them in, then cut a hole for the "hub"
im building the table 1/2 sized from the plans, the origanal was a "sit to eat" type, i wanted small side tables
sorry for the lousy pics, i cant find the base piece that fastens the camera to the tripod
here's the link to the plans, note my top is 1/2 the size
