Abstract

This small round table made from walnut is paired with four green wood dining chairs (see our 3D model from scanning showing 1 of 4 of these chairs: - https://skfb.ly/osWGr). The chairs are made of hard maple with woven, green wood seats. This furniture, made by 39th President Jimmy Carter, is part of a 3D digital documentation and archival program being undertaken by the Center for Digital Heritage and Geospatial Technologies in the University of South Florida Libraries and is in collaboration with the Carter Family, the National Park Service, and the Friends of the Jimmy Carter Historical Park. Today, this small, elegant, yet simple walnut table and chairs are part of the furnishings of the presidential home in Plains, Georgia.

Alt Text

A three-dimensional model of a round table with four legs, stained to a dark brown and covered with clear coat. The legs of the table are made out of two pieces of wood that have each been cut to resemble a capital letter "N" at two different angles, and then placed crossing over one another, giving the otherwise simple table a unique profile. The model can be rotated, moved, and zoomed in and out to allow for viewing of additional details at multiple angles.
