TIMBER TOPPER

Reclaimed coastal live oak kitchen island top. Hewn, scraped top, sculpted edges. Epoxy filled bullet holes and cracks, Waterlox finish, General Finishes glaze. 3 1/4” thick.And yes, on this piece I beveled all the joints prior to glue up to make sure that I had a distinctive glue line separating each of the boards.

That is a gorgeous slab. This is going to make a nice counter top. It would make a nice bench top as well.
