Customer had a large ash burl he wanted to make a coffee table. Fist we had to saw it into usable pieces and let it dry. The idea was to use four pieces in the top of the table. They were cut to have two straight edges to fit together and incorporated into a four piece tabletop. Walnut limbs were used for the leg structure. This table was the first of its kind that I have built, very interesting project that turned out to be a fine and unique table.
