9 Stoobles. Mostly poplar. 11 to 26 tall. After a week at the beach it was good to get back to the shop.

Were these cut with a chainsaw? Quite a cool and relatively simple idea.
Where does the word stooble come from?
and finally…not to diminish the 9 beautiful stoobles but wow! what a slab of wood that is behind them! What is that?

Great looking stoobles. How they selling? Someone out there has got to love those things. I do. I have some stumps out back I might just try a couple myself.

Yes chainsaw first, then alot of sanding & grinding, then 5 coats of spar varnish. These still need a few coats. Stooble came from rob, a fellow L-jock …. stool / table = stooble. The giant slab is cherry 3X54X74 cut with an alaskan mill chainsaw rig. When I rent a floor sander, to refinish the floor in the store, I will sand it aswell.

Thanks. Sold more off line than on lately. I was down to just a few so I had to beef up the inventory.
Super sharp saw works best.

Thanks for continuing to give me the credit, Ted… For anyone still interested, here is a brief history on the stooble from my BIL, ScottB.
I’m going to make sure my Dad takes a look at all your stoobles, at this rate you may pass his production soon…
Great job.

Those are great.
I’ll have to count em up, but I think you’ve got my father-in-law beat, stooble for stooble by a couple (if not a several hundred! (wink wink) Though, he did knock off a dozen this week for my daughters Alice in Wonderland inspired un-birthday tea party.
