That was the first tree I milled with the 42 inch GB bar and chain set up I bought from you a while back Rob. I was using the full (about 38 inches) length of the bar. The low pro chain made a huge difference to the milling speed. Thanks for that!

Table finished today, before and after.

 

Here's a spalted beech and elm table with a slab of steel thrown in. Table is 7 foot long. The pedestal is elm, single chunk 58 inches at widest, 5 inch thick. Base is 8mm steel plate.

 

I thought I was taking the easy route by having a one legged table. In reality it took just as long as a 4 legged version!

 

The top sits on two cross pieces (hidden) and is just attached with 4 toggles into routed slots to allow for movement in the slab.

 

I used West Systems resin with bronze powder for filling cracks and butterflys to help with stability.

Yep very slick - that's the sort of thing would go for good £ in the right place.

That looks the dogs dangleberries.

 

I'm pretty new to making things out of milled boards and wondered if you could take photos of how you attached the top, and talk me through how you do the butterflies? Always keen to learn better ways of doing things. Love the resin addition too.

 

Thanks in advance
