red cedar slab dining table
i finished the table a couple of weeks ago and finaly got around to posting some pics.
had to beef up the rails after a little bit of slab movement, but it seems to be all good now.
finish is two pack flooring poly.

A most agreeable slab of the red stuff and a damned great table to boot.

Nice work B1H, making chairs to match?
Small cedar slabs for the back spats fitted to your current chairs would do nicely

looks great although i think the corners could have been rounded to match up with the curves along the slab, seems a little abrupt the way it just stops square ,like (thats it chop it off there, thats long enough) ) thats only my opinion and i am in no way knocking it ,its still a beautifull table ....bob
