Live edge cedar projects.

[mdgmc84]

Today I went and picked up some cedar I had cut into 2" live edge slabs. The trees were both fell in storms in the past couple years. One had lots of limbs and knots in the trunk section while the other was fairly smooth from what I cut. I ended up with 7 12'6" pieces and 10 6' pieces ranging from about 16" diameter to 8". Just throwing this out for some project ideas anybody may have. I did a couple benches a few months ago with some I ripped with my chainsaw. Thinking a big table, entertainment center other ideas...

Also I would like to keep more of the red color, poly makes it more brown then I like.
