Local driftwood

Well, I've always envisioned a piece approx. 5 ft. long, cut in half lengthwise (which Mr. johnrudy could do), with the flat side as the top of the mantle and the underside remaining in its natural shape. It most likely would have to be something we would need to come pick up rather than being shipped.

Sounds cool! I think an old stump would probably do, there are some cypress stumps with some of the tree left. The trick would be cutting it, it gets very hard with age.

Here's a photo, got busy with something else, then the wind started blowing so hard that I really wasn't into elaborating! Supposed to get cold again!

I made some picture frames, and am almost finished with the Cypress Knee table lamp. Next I'm working on a coffee table with a glass top. Also have a full length mirror.

My daughter did a molded clay Mullet on a driftwood plank.

Here's some more driftwood, the long piece would make a cool mantel.

Here's one that I think would make an awesome table with a glass top. It's Cyprus, with an unusual bend in it, and looks like it was either cut with an axe, or by a Beaver.

This piece could be used as a mantle, 2 bolts connecting it to a fireplace. Could have glass cut for the top.
