Update 2014-08-27: Ran this through granthes' RigFix and now it is fixed. Pets-or-later users, please remove the old package and use the “rigfix” one instead! Thanks for testing, FH|RA! =)
Update, 2010-06-11:
The table now has two additional deco slots, thanks to cmomoney – see screenshots in post #24 of this thread. Redownload the package and let it overwrite the old version (I don't think the instance of the object has changed and you wouldn't need the same table twice anyway).
Two recolourable channels (top and body); the drawer handle is always silver. It costs 120§ in game and is in Surfaces > Dining tables (cloned from the Bistro dining table). Made from 1.8.25 files; I have no idea how it behaves in lesser versions.
It has four custom presets (see the "presets" screenshot below); three of them are using default EA texures so it's easy to match stuff, plus a weathered outdoorsy version. The shadow texture is rendered in blender, so it's as accurate as it can be. The mapping is as seamless as I could make it; the left and right sides of the tabletop are mapped perpendicular to the top side but this is on purpose – I didn't want to bend wood textures at 90°. Think of it as a strip that's laminated around the edge.
Made in blender with the help of s3pe, s3oc, Aorta, Milkshape, S3 Object Mesh Tool, BBEdit, Photoshop and others. Many thanks to cmomoney who helped me figure out how to map it the way I want it to (without making the game throw up) and who also wrote this tutorial on custom presets.
Polygon Counts:
The high-resolution mesh has 160 faces, 245 vertices. The low resolution one has I think 74 faces (no bevels on the tabletop; drawer handle is a box).
This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.

Install Instructions
1. Click the download button, or the filename, to download the file to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file. Now you will have either a .package or a .sims3pack file.
For Package files:
1. Cut and paste the file into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages folder. If you do not already have this folder, you should read the full guide to Package files first: Sims 3:Installing Package Fileswiki, so you can make sure your game is fully patched and you have the correct Resource.cfg file.
2. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
For Sims3Pack files:
1. Cut and paste it into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Downloads folder. If you do not have this folder yet, it is recommended that you open the game and then close it again so that this folder will be automatically created. Then you can place the .sims3pack into your Downloads folder.
2. Load the game's Launcher, and click on the Downloads tab. Find the item in the list and tick the box beside it. Then press the Install button below the list.
3. Wait for the installer to load, and it will install the content to the game. You will get a message letting you know when it's done.
4. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
Extracting from RAR, ZIP, or 7z: You will need a special program for this. For Windows, we recommend 7-Zip and for Mac OSX, we recommend Keka. Both are free and safe to use.
