BenchTop

The chief lumber inspector is having a quick look at this ash for suitability as a bench top.


It is some nice 12/4 stuff.


There is some nice figuring in the wood.


I have considered two 10 or so inch slabs.


Although each piece is cracked on the end, I should be able to get some nice legs out of here...


...and here.


This is some of the old 4/4 black walnut I want to try and incorporate somewhere on the bench - maybe the caps of the tail vise.
