Hi All,

 

I have a plank of Lebonese cedar that a work mate milled from a branch. I have had it planed and it is about 30cm wide and also I have been rubbing down with wire wool when I get the chance.

 

After being inspired at looking at some of your work I was wondering if there is something I could do with it other than making it into a shelf.

Branch? think you mean limb mate!

 

as to what you could do, with it ive no idea but certain somone will give you some inspiration

Make nice kindling!

You could possibly cut a foot off it and make a clock when i was last in scotland, i saw a lot of clocks made from timber for sale......

 

could use a part of it as a name plate for your house? carve words/numbers or use a soildering iron......

 

just a few suggestions

How long is it ?? could you cut in half and join to make 60cm wide, a start of a coffee table maybe.

 

or attach wheels on the bottom and have a skate board.

Skateboard?

 

edit: Ian, you beat me to it!

Looks more like a piece of oak to me.

Thats because that's exactly what it is.

[wisewood]

A seesaw?

 

A surfboard?

 

You could rip down the middle and make a mirror frame maybe.

 

Looks like oak to me too.

It is Lebenese Cedar, honestly and yes it did come from a limb. A coffee table sounds good as it is just under 6ft long. Cheers everybody.
