Project Information

Two pieces of English Walnut, marginal wood, but interesting. Twisted and cheap from a yard I go to when I'm in PA on visits to my Daughter. The top took a year of working both sides at a time to get it down so it stayed flat, it went from 2 1/2 to 1 3/8th's before it was done. The whole base is cut from one piece of English Walnut bought at the same time, there was a lot of variation in it but did worked out for me. It is a table but some have looked at it said they thought it was a bench, OK, just don't try to sit in the little leg end.

I love the simplistic form of this table. The grain really pops on the top. Nice job.

I admire the ability that some people have to view a hunk of wood and see such a unique table. Then have the woodworking ability to bring it to reality. GREAT WORK!

This is a great table! Bringing out the natural beauty in the wood is what it's all about to me. You mentioned a yard in PA… what's the name of it?

Nice job. I like using slabs, they usually offer spectacular grain patterns. The rustic look fits well in many places. I just finished one using black walnut.
