I will be making a stand for this tree next month.
This blog is intended to be a direct window into my workshop. It is intended to unveil the processes, joinery, and materials that are so crucial to the production of Five Fifths Furniture. Check back often for updates on current projects, future shows and expeditions to procure new and fascinating materials.
Side note.
The table went to professional Bonsai Artist Ryan Neil. Wonderful trees and a wonderful garden outside of Portland. These are just a few fun shots.
Where have I been.
I have been wrapping up a very large Redwood Conference Table Top- I say top as we are still exploring a base for the table. The two Slabs old logged stumps that have been dug up later and slabbed. The outside edges are the root ball and the center is roughly were the tree was cut down. Since the stump sat dead and exposed for all those years the rot in the pieces was rather extensive. About 8 hours went into the liveedge with about 3" of material lost around most sides. The Butterflies are all that is holding on the left chunk. Came out well, everyone was happy.
It looks small but the table is rather large, it has roughly the same footprint as my truck.
