amazing.. you ever thought about wood burning with this? i do wood burning. and you are giving me some killer ideas! if you like, look up genreofstubby.us to check out some of my work. i would love to work with you on this. amazing! :)
Very nice job! I have many trees here in Maine and some have burls on them...mostly on the red oaks. I always wondered what I could come up with for a beautiful product. Now I know. By the way, could you be so kind and let me know how removed the core from the bottom? After plunging the saw all around, the base, I am wondering how it was released. My guess is that you had to chisel out chunks at a time. Thank You for a great video!
@oxfordmoon Thank you, and observative! Getting the center piece out took some time. After the plunging I made more cuts, only this time in triangular patterns so I was able to remove the core in pieces:

./\/\/\.
/\/\/\/\
If the above doesn't really help, I'll try again to explain ;)
@duff835 , I am in beautiful Raymond, Maine. I haven't started this type of work, but I am setting up......but I have a long way to go.......meanwhile my trees are getting bigger...thanks for asking.
@oxfordmoon Well best of luck, I live in Poland Maine, I'm 17 and just started woodworking a little over a year now. I do a large amount of lathing but have starting doing some other kinds of projects, its expensive to get into but if what you make looks nice you will make a little money selling it.
wow that is cool as i found a great place for woodworking plans there is like 16000 plans its crazy its at downloadablewoodworkingplans.blogspot.com not sure there is many that use a chainsaw tho lol
great piece!! looking at the top there are some small cracks (like it btw) but my question is: how do you keep it from splitting all the way and dividing the table in two? Is tung and lemon oil really all you put on the top. thx and keep making these more than beautifull pieces
@waldodesteghe Thank you! It depends on the type of wood how bad the cracking will be (or 'bad'...I rather like cracks, they make it look like wood, not plastic!) For example, Oak and Beech will surely crack because they are tough woods and don't give way. Birch, Maple and pine are reasonably soft, and will crack not as bad. Still, to minimize all-to-big cracking I have removed 90% of the corewood, releaving stresses. Using oils help also, making the wood dry slow and steadily.
Hi there sorry not sure if Mueiwark is your tag or your name! Anyway just found you on youtube while researching for my new design brand. It really is good to see how you work and visualise the piece evolving through the stages.
I am currently looking for someone who can supply/produce bespoke wooden natural/contemporary products (specifics to be discussed) If you want to have a quick chat then let me know and we can skype or something.
The tung and lemon oil brought out all the beautiful golds and sepias --I would have a tendency to put a piece of glass as a top piece ---I also liked it when you first took off the bark I thougt it was finished then ---what a wonderful piece of wood and great work
Very nice. You could use sand & seeler for the table top! I must get one of those Saabur Tooth disks. Another idea is to put a lamp or candle on the inside, some lovely holes there create wild shadows! Again, inspiring.
Thx mate :) I had some sealing probs on the end grain, and by adding some polyurethane to the oil it finally stopped soaking in. I needed the thick oil penetration though, the wood is still a bit wet so moisture needs to evaporate slowly trough the oil layers. I thought of a lamp as well, but found a cable sticking out to distracting from the design. Perhaps I will come up with something later on.
Very beatyful! sorry, did how many disk for grinding use?
