River Redgum Burl Coffee Table for my Darling
A few years ago out west I cut this burl slab and kept it for such a project.
I more recently cut some rivergum slabs and have used a small amount for this table.
The table top required some resin fix-up as most burls do.
For the joinery I used the Domino - 10mm dominos.
I finished all the timber with organoil burnishing oil
SWMBO is happy with it and I enjoyed the play time in the shed
Cheers
