my Mappa Burl table project. Need to lightly, wet sand the top again, then compound, then add one more coat of epoxy to get that glass smooth finish. It weighs just under 200 pounds. These photos do not show the grain as much as I would have liked, but I have a video that I'll try to upload to You Tube that shows it better.





The legs are made of powder coated steel and weigh about 40 pounds each - a bit heavy, but very sturdy and easily installed.

Here's a quick video of the table, but it was difficult to get my cell phone to focus on the top at times, but it gives you an idea of how that grain pops. I still have about 3 days of work before everything is complete.

So Gary, how're you going to get the crane inside the house to move it? smile smile smile Just kidding, big guy, it's absolutely beautiful. I'm jealous of your energy and ambition (and artistry).

Thanks everyone. This project has helped me maintain my sanity during the past few months. I should have it completed in the next few days, then I have some outdoor projects to keep me busy.

All the best,

Gary cool

I’m envious of your skills, Gary, but very happy you have the desire to stay busy.
