Just a couple of pics of another work in progress. This is the butt end of a large Maple that was cut down two years ago. I hollowed it out and the plan is to put a glass top on it once all the sanding and finishing work is done.
This is the top surface in process of being leveled.
And here is the bottom surface after leveling.
Prior to getting my sleds built, I had burned about 20 hours and who knows how many 3X21 belts just getting the saw marks off the two surfaces and obtaining some semblance of "flat" and parallel.
This is how it looked then after all that sanding and two applications of BLO to retard drying and cracking.
