This should be interesting. Are you going with the rustic look?

Hap, Can’t wait to see the finished project. Did you use a guide to cut them?

Hi Hap;
—-again, great wood work and good steady hand you have for the ‘free form’ chainsaw cutting….!

I do believe that the look of rustic is in your eyesight. This type of cutting you are doing is great for end tables, log seats, benches and whatever the imagination can see into the wood.

Great end tables here and thank you for sharing your project with us here at LJ…..and well-come!
GODSPEED,
Frank
