End tables. Mesquite

I like that. How did you dry the logs?

Hey Eric, I cut those pieces and left them in my small barn for a few months. This wood is very stable so you dont get any extra work or problems with it.

Cool. Someone offered to let me take a couple trees from them. Not going to be that size in Austin, but I’m interested in working with some.

Beautiful project. I’ve made something similar but yours looks much better. lol.

Nice way to use those voids that mesquite always has.

Hey Scott, I went to a wood carvers show here in Pharr, TX this weekend. It was aweome, I got alot of new direction and ideas. Lots of senior citizens. Met a carving instructor, invited him over and sold him some wood slabs for his classes and he invited me to his classes also. Theres new tools out there now that make even a novice do good carving work.

Never done this, but it looks like something I would like to try (looks very cool!). So, basically just cut some slabs from a trunk and let them dry out? Is the epoxy just for the void? Any thing over the oil?
Thanks

I like the top very much but the legs are outstanding!

I don’t know how you come by your wood I will say it’s beautiful well done a jealous oldish Scotsman LOL regards Alistair

Thanks freinds. This is a clear bartop epoxy, but I just use it for voids, little too expensive to pour all over everything. Couple coats of tung oil seems fine. The rest has gloss urethane.
Scotsman, theres plenty wood just outside, so saddle up, get the wagon too and dont forget the Stihl!

I’ve got a stihl! What you’re a days drive away? Maybe some weekend?
