Description: This comically oversized slab desk build is thanks to Skillshare. The first 1,000 people to use this link will get a 1 month free trial of Skillshare: skl.sh/blacktailstudio07211 This live edge walnut desk started out as a massive 65" wide single slab of locally salvaged Bastogne walnut. Not just any Bastogne though. This particular slab was so nice that it was stashed by the mill owner until they ran out of room and finally decided they were willing to sell it to me. Working closely with my client we added features like bow tie/dutchman joints across the crack, very unique handmade table legs, and I even added a rather cutting edge ceramic wood finish. I hope you like it, let me know if you have any questions! Related videos and blogs: Want to build your own epoxy table?
