Like the table and of course the pecan is a great wood.

Thanks 987Ron. It was fun to make. Pecan is beautiful but it highly challenged my woodworking skills.

-- Allan, Oklahoma.

Excellent job – a project of this magnitude would challenge anyone’s woodworking skills.

Can’t wait to see the chairs.

Thanks for posting.

Beautiful Table. I love the look of pecan. But that is the hardest wood I have ever worked with, takes forever to sand smooth.

I love it. It’s gotta feel great, making it from wood that you milled youself.

Beautiful job. This is the one project you get to use and admire everyday.

-- AJ

That is absolutely beautiful – congratulations!

I love the photo of the wood stickered out in the rain.

From tree to table, how cool is that!!

Farm out, get it?! Never mind…

Skills showing, beautiful…

-- mtnwild (Jack), It's not what you see, it's how you see it.

Love the start to finish story of this and beautiful results. Well done.

Wow. Lovely table and even better that it was from your property.

Very nice. Of all the projects you could make, a kitchen table has to be the best. It’s the centerpiece of your house! Well done! It looks amazing.

Looks great. Nice work! :)

Thanks Bill: yes it was very challenging to complete-chairs may be a year off (or longer!)

Thanks John: yes it’s VERY hard but the surface has already survived a couple items inadvertently ‘dropped’ on it without denting!

Thanks Dennis: after almost 2 years in the works it does seem like something was accomplished

Thanks AJ1104: I’m letting it set for the curing times listed by General Finishes-can’t wait for bacon, eggs & coffee in the morning on it!

Thanks MTNWild: the stack was in the rain many times but it is covered with exterior plywood. While there was some twisting, there was very little serious checking.

Thanks BBI: I enjoyed cutting, moving & rough milling the logs with a chainsaw. Best part was end result & my wife’s smiles!

Thanks BILLGO: looking forward to multiple fellowships around the table!

Thanks Tom: I appreciate the kind words.
