Carol thinks I am crazy, and she is probably correct in her assessment, however, Laura drove me to Quarryville, PA a couple days ago to Groff Lumber Company, where I purchased another piece of Mappa Burl wood. The wood measures about 25 X 28 inches, and is approximately 2 inches thick. I intend to make an end table from it, however this time, I will use the live edges after rounding off the very sharp spikes left after the bark was removed. Again, I will tint the wood with black stain and use an epoxy finish. The legs will be made of welded steel, black powder coated finish and a bit ornate. Click here to see legs I value your opinions, and yes, I am a bit crazy, but as I have always said, "A little insanity goes a long way."

I think I could make the rocking chair, but the cost of the materials would be outrageous. The piece of wood in the post cost $440 and the legs were $150 plus $20 shipping. However, I saw similar end tables for more than $2,000 at some online specialty stores. I have about $2,500 in my dining room table and 3 months labor. I don't want to think how much I have tied up in tools. Unfortunately, I am too old and busted up to piss the money away on hot women and cheap booze. ![wink wink](/forum/images/graemlins/default_dark/wink.gif) Gary
