Used As A Table Top on a Stump

Posted by Ken & Joan

Both tabletops arrived in good shape and on time. Here's why we ordered them: years ago we built a deck around a big Maple tree because it provided great shade in the afternoon. Last year's drought pretty well killed the tree so we had it taken down, howevere we left the stump at table height. We searched the internet for tabletops and your's seemed to fit our situation about right. The top of the stump was not level and about 25" in diameter so we ordered a 23" round piece and with shimms we leveled the stump after sealing it well. We used Great Stuff to fill in the gaps between the stump and the level 23" piece. After several coats of gold paint on the 48" tabletop we glued a laminated map of the state of Texas in the center. Using Velcro we attached the 48" to the 23" and have a very stable tabletop that we can remove in bad weather. The entire table was sprayed several times with clear Acrlyic spray. We live on a cattle ranch and we wanted a Western look and your tabletops gave us the flexability we needed.

Attached are two photos of the table, of which, we are very happy.
