I've been working on a Slab table top. Most of what happens is "wet wait" and plan. Let the brain do what it does best.
The insides are the cutoff of the outsides of the sister slabs. Booked then placed back in the center.
So, here is a teaser as to the progress.
I call this a double bookmatch inlay.
It will be a glue joint with black accents.
This is as close as I could get with a chainsaw.
Next up is 36 grit and 2 pencils.
I'm hoping for an 063" or less gap. We'll see
Ohhh... I'm jazzed
Woodwork... It's what I do for a living.
(well, such as it may be, It's my job)
((cept my boss is a @#!*&))
I think I'm gonna fire myself for that

You ever push a broom around that place?
Looks like it will be great

All the years I have used chainsaws, never indoors.
Just went on the list.

Don, are the majority of your customers corporate or private?

That is so cool! "Wet wait" is definitely painful.
I'm somewhat surprised your normal customers aren't commercial - the scale is massive . . . . and most assuredly beautiful!

Yup, seems like a lot of what I do is bigger.
Next table after this one is a dining table 48" wide x 12' long.
Rustic Black Oak with concrete. Industrial Chic look
There is a conference table in the "waiting for them" basket.
Perhaps in February

So did you cut the outside ones to fit around the center one? Or the opposite? Can't wait to see more!
