This is the stack of slabs I manged to swap for 2 cartons of "wife basher" (emu export)  deal of a life time I reckon, anyways, the following pics are my WIP
1, Stack of slabs
2, more slabs
3, one end of table
4, cleaned up ready for resin
5, second end
6, together taped up for resin fill
7, sanded back
8, seating idea
9, getting there. top joined with benchtop clamps, dowels and PVA, all coach bolted to the steel frame, on wheels now for ease of movement (bloody heavy)
A fair bit more work on the lower section now the top is finished, will post up some more pics as the project proceeds. |

nice, nah, great table top
but ...
was just wondering to myself, if the bench is curved like that then the people sitting on each end are a little excluded from conversation - as they cannot eyeball each other without doing it behind the backs of those in the middle ( I hope you see what I mean?)
