This is going to be a multi-part series of posts. As it is going to be a multi day project.
This project is one that D actually suggested.
There are several log slices in the woods by our house from a tree that was taken down and D needs a bedside table so of course our logical thought process was lets MAKE a table from a raw slice of tree.
Raw materials and natural looks are something Dustin and I can agree on when it comes to decor, so this worked out well.
The Plan:
1.Shave/sand/chisel the wood until it reaches the desired smoothness and color.
2.Coat it with a sealant.
3.Decide on a top. (We are thinking about a round glass or acrylic top of maybe just a thick sealant coat on top.)
Sounds simple, right?
It is simple, just time consuming. But I have faith that the end result will be worth it all.
Here is what we have so far:

| Started chiseling, looking good! |
