does anyone have or had made a footstool or table from a tree? I want to use a slice of the tree that fell in my yard to make a small table for my daughter or atleast for decoration for the deck. sand it down & lacquer it up good to bring out the growth rings. But I dont know how to attach the legs. Got any pics? advise. Long story short. Saturday we got bad winds/rain. poplar tree in front of kitchen window thought it was a kite but fell like a domino and took out another one on the way down, narrowly missing my shed & the neighbors house. I was with out utilities from saturday until yesterday. Sat & sunday we stayed in a hotel but then got to borrow electric from a neighbor to run the pellet stove & chest freezer so we can stay home. Now I want a suvenier. Forgot to mention that my wife had a front row seat as she was washing dishes when the tree, only a few feet away from the kitchen window fell the other way while I was in the nursery at the front of the mobile home trying to put Cassie down for the night.
