Birthday Waterfall Bubinga
After completing the Cherry Blanket Chest for our bedroom, I began planning the different projects for the Bubinga. I need at least 3 heirloom projects to come out of this wood. Board # 1 1.Live Edge Coffee Table (Takishima Style) This will use up the live edge of one of the board. This leaves a board about 7/8 x 13 x 110. 2. ??.....Display cabinet ...not sure yet. Board # 2 3. Couch/Entry Hall Table (pic of plan included) ...
I'm off finishing LOML's Cherry Blanket Chest and a hundred other "Honey Do's" While I'm doing that, I will be finding a local source with a drum sander that does 30" wide. I figure that I will get started making the first cut in February or so
On December 23, my family gave me the birthday gift of 2 slabs of Waterfall Bubinga. I was stunned! With this blog, I intend to document the thought/learning process of working with such an extraordinary gift.
