Some more suburban logging. Milled a single slab that clocked in at 77 b.f. the next few should reach 100.

Doing some suburban logging. Milling up this maple with my best helper and some good equipment. Alaskan mill and 880 power head. Slower than a bandsaw mill but I'm not limited to 30" wide. This tree is 36" at the bell. The big one in the back is 46".

I've been pretty quiet about the project I have been working on for Muhlenberg. I mean people know I'm doing it but I haven't posted pictures. So here are a few. I made a total of 6 tables, 5 benches, and a countertop (still in progress) for the new Fahey Commons building. This started with saving the trees. Milling and drying the wood. Then making the custom furniture. It's taken just over a year in total. Hopefully there will be some professional photos coming.

In the winter, the sun is low enough in the sky that the light in the shop is both wildly blinding and pleasing to the soul. At the moment I took this photo, it was very pleasing.

This one hurt. Had to sand off and refinish the top of the conference table. I didn't like how it came out. I'm not sure if anyone else would have seen what I saw, but what I saw couldn't be left. Win some, and lose some.

Like I promised, final sanding and finish went on the bottom of the table today. Tomorrow I'll work on the legs but try to flip the top at the end of the day.

Today was all about the bottom of the conference table. Tomorrow the bottom gets final sanding and finish.

Big day! Got to deliver this hickory farm table today to a wonderful family that has been patiently waiting for this day to arrive. Thanks to and for help with processing the over 100 year old barn beams that were salvaged from a local barn. And as usual this one is finished with oil + 2c pure.
