if i bolt an oak 1x4 to a walnut 1x4 (face to face) am i runninga risk of introducing a curve in the assembly over time? wouldi be better off using two walnut boards? this is for a walnuttable apron for which i need a "sub-frame/apron". the sub-frame(oak)would be rigidly attached to a double pedestal assembly and the table apron (walnut) would be bolted to the oak sub-frame.the table top itself (walnut veneered MDF) will be attached toa geared slide screwed to the apron allowing the top and leavesto move while the apron stays fixed. i hope this description is not too confusing.

Dear Dean,There is nothing about your approach that seams out of line to me. I would say, go ahead. Someone else may have a different idea, but it looks ok to me.SincerelyDarryl Keil: if i bolt an oak 1x4 to a walnut 1x4 (face to face) am i running: a risk of introducing a curve in the assembly over time? would: i be better off using two walnut boards? this is for a walnut: table apron for which i need a "sub-frame/apron". the sub-frame: (oak)would be rigidly attached to a double pedestal assembly and : the table apron (walnut) would be bolted to the oak sub-frame.: the table top itself (walnut veneered MDF) will be attached to: a geared slide screwed to the apron allowing the top and leaves: to move while the apron stays fixed. i hope this description is : not too confusing.
