Abstract

This small table with a single drawer is made from walnut and is today located at the entry to President Jimmy Carter's home office in Plains, Georgia. Like many of the other furnishings in his home, this table was hand-made by President Carter. The piece was selected for 3D documentation by the USF CDHGI, with input and collaboration with the Carter family, the National Park Service, and the Friends of Jimmy Carter National Historical Park. Methods used to document the table included 3D structured light scanning with photographic texture mapping. Photogrammetric methods were also used.

Alt Text

A three-dimensional model of a square-shaped, wooden side table with one drawer built just under the tabletop. The drawer has a small, round handle made of the same wood as the table. The rectangular front panel of the drawer has a slightly chamfered edge, and the corners of this piece of wood are rounded. The table is stained to a medium-dark brown colors and some signs of wear can be seen on its surface, including rings from cups or mugs. The model can be rotated, moved, and zoomed in and out to allow for viewing of additional details at multiple angles.
