Project Information
Finally got the time to install the mantel and hearth on a fireplace for a friend of mine..
Mantel is 3" thick and 7.5 ' long and 14 to 16 " wide. I had to have the mantel custom cut at a sawmill.
they picked an awesome piece of walnut with lots of figure. The hearth was a piece of walnut that came from my yard and air dried for 4 yrs.
the mantel was a bear to handle as i couldnt lift it myself and had to call on friends and neighbors to help me.
My friends loved both pieces.
i made a lot of sawdust in my shop with all the sanding i did. also had to eposy some voids with black stained eposy.
my apologies for my finger in the picture
the second picture if of the mantel board after i just picked it up. you can see all the figure in it.
the third picture is a close up of the mantel figure
well thats all for now. i hope everyone has a great THANKSGIVING and stay healthy.
