All Comments on Tree Base Slab Table

Great work with the bowties. Looks fantastic. It must weigh a ton.

A real conversation piece. What kind of wood is the slab?

Thats awesome. Yeah I wish my insurance agent would give up the huge slab sitting by his office. Its like 4 "thick by 50 + round. I loved to make a table with it.
Yours looks great.

The slab is actually maple. Its only 3" thick, so I actually cut an undersized pattern of it, using 1/2" plywood, as well as the small metal brackets, to tie it together, and make a nice flat base for the end table base I am making for it.
