Transforming Trees into Tables, Benches, Cutting Boards, and More

Logs to Lumber

As a woodworker, it’s important to understand how logs get processed into lumber and how the resulting material is dried. This information will not only make you a more educated consumer, but it will also help you ensure that you get what you pay for when you buy lumber and help you determine if lumber you buy is ready to be used.

Prep and Epoxy Slabs

You’ll need to do some work on your slabs in your shop. They might still be wet, rough sawn, or not perfectly flat. The prettiest slabs are the ones that have the most character. What some people might consider defects—holes, splits, bark inclusions, knots—can also be seen as characteristics that make a piece of wood unique and beautiful.

Wooden slabs with bowties spanning cracks in the wood.

Cutting in Bowties

Bowties can be used to hold cracks together, mask defects, or simply act as a decorative element. Using contrasting species of wood will make the bowtie inlay really pop. When this process is used to hide a defect, the result is often called a Dutchman. The same techniques used to install bowties can be used with a variety of different shaped inlays.

Create a Waterfall Edge

Waterfall edges take advantage of mitered corners to create continuous grain that, like a waterfall, flows from the horizontal surface to the vertical surface. Table legs are a very common application for waterfall edges, but you can use this technique any time two surfaces are coming together at a right angle.

"This book has everything you need to go from a beginner to expert when working with slabs. George is incredibly thorough, and this book has tons of knowledge that usually only comes with years of experience ... This book is one of those things I wish I had when I got started working with slabs; it would have saved me lots of headaches and thousands of dollars from painstaking mistakes."—John Malecki, YouTuber and woodworker

"This clear, concise book is peppered with plenty of helpful shop tricks. There's a project for every budget and skill set. The section on flattening slabs using a variety of methods alone makes this book a must-read for anyone working with live edge pieces."—Anne Briggs, Anne of ALL Trades
