Slab Table

Using up some scraps

We needed to replace a small table in our garden that had developed a noticeable sag. We had a 2″ thick pine slab, left over from a willow bench that had fallen apart. We thought we’d use it for the top of the new table. I made the base out of redwood scraps left over from our trellis.
