The wood I took the photos on was from my Dads barn, it is about 3 ins thick it used to be his work surface, when we cleared out Dads barn (over 25yrs ago) I could not leave it behind so home it came some became benches  and a table for the garden, there are two pieces left which Hubs sanded for me and one day when I think of something fitting to do with them I will until then they will just be looked at, stroked and loved and I will remember all the great times I had chopping up wood, making things with my Dad and watching him making things and mending things and resoling shoes and wishing I had keep ALL the contents of that wonderful barn!
