Abstract Organic Live Edge Burl Coffee Table for Glen!

Photobucket













































I finally finished this table for a good friend, and I thought I would post some pictures. He had this vintage burl wood slab that used to belong to his aunt, and he asked me to make a new base that would be more updated and that would compliment the shape of the table top. He had a lot of great memories attached to this table. He said he remebered playing with his hotwheels on it as a small child. I was honored to oblige him. I drew up the base on the computer and that helped me to figure out all the various angles. In the end, we decided to go with a Marine Varnish for the wood top, since he might be using it for his outside patio sometimes, and we went with an oil rubbed bronze powder coated finish on the base. I think It came out pretty cool. I haven't really seen anything else like it... enjoy!
