Oak Bench

[Big Beech]

Well, finally managed to complete something that was hopefully worthwhile this weekend!

this board was from the initial Burr Oak I milled.

After several hours sanding, and lifting the grain and re-sanding I finally started to seal the grain, which was a relief! so have at this stage just applied some warmed boiled linseed to it.

It has been bolted together with four 3" carpenters mate screws and I have seasoning above the AGA an Oak dowl split from a log in my log pile. had dressed it with a draw knife, then will see final finishing with a spoke shave. this will then be used to plug me holes in the tops.

 

Anyway, I am well chuffed

Great stuff - like the leg design as well which is the trickiest bit on coffee tables.

You a 'Star Trek' fan? If you are, you'll understand. If you're not, the joke isn't worth explaining.

That's a nice piece, I like it very much.

 

But why chuck it in the stream?
