Okay guys, here’s a new chapter in our 2021 urban logging theme. We’ve removed an old sugar maple that was threatening to fall onto the house during some hurricane and are stabilizing the big pieces for sawing. Looks like there might be some interesting figured wood and crotches there. Our son said we should take a big cookie or two off the stump for future rustic table tops.
How would you stabilize the cookies? Paint both sides with my salvaged exterior latex (it’s all I have, really) ? I doubt it would penetrate much, so would clean off with a router sled when the time comes.
Beside the tractor you can see a red oak we planted two years ago to take over the yard shading duties. It’s coming along nicely.
