reflect that fact. They are not building things for the poor.

Nor for the weak. Those slab tables are, no doubt, heavy as heck.

I would encourage everyone to attempt/make a slab project. It's a challeng= e (large end grain areas!), fun and its hard to go wrong with a natural edg= ed piece. *A note about large areas of end grain: Don't allow your sweat = to drip on finish sanded end grain. The spot will raise and you have to re= sand. End grain sanding, to perfection, is much harder work than on faced= surfaces!!! Moist sweaty hands will affect the wood, also, requiring resa= nding.
