Big oak

Postby TwoGuysBBQ » Tue Mar 12, 2019 9:04 am

I saw this last week just south of San Angelo.
Had me wondering what his plans are.
Perhaps a table?

An Oak Crotch with a Fork has mega burl and figure in it also - - - - Sir Egghead could probably add more ideas too. :tup:

I would guess a future table of some sort.
Lots of tables have designs hollowed out and filled with colored Resin and then sealed in clear resin and finished with CA.
( Cyanoacrylate ) for a glass like finish.

These make great Bars and Bathroom Sink Pedastles.

Maybe a few live edge tables. I have a friend who has a saw that could get some nice 4-6” slabs out of that chunk.
