Part 1: Rough Material, ready to begin
The guy that purchased this table has a 600 lb granite top. So we had to make something large, sturdy and yet attractive. The cottonwood came from the K Ranch on the Colorado Utah border in Dinosaur Colorado. And yes it is seriously the name of a town. Here is the rough material. each stumo will sit on a base, the base it not necessary, it adds to the beauty
Part 2: Ready to sand
The stumps have been cut down to size, the sharp edges on the burls have been cleaned up and it is time to start sanding.
Part 3: Sanded
The stumps have been sanded and bolted to the bases. Tim leveled the tops after these pictures were taken, we are ready to spray
Part 4: Sprayed
Well, here it is sprayed and ready to take out for delivery. We finished with Satin Polycrylic
Part 5: Delivery and Setup
Here it is delivered to house. It takes two people to carry each stump and six men to carry the top up the stairs and into the house. I sure am glad I was the one taking the pictures. The measurements on this table are 81 1/2” x 44” and 31 1/2” tall.
