Since Covid hit our church stopped passing the collection plates and went to putting a small table at the door for people to drop their offerings into. The woman who is in charge of the worship committee asked me to make a second one since they only had one which was really crude and they had to cover. So I made one out of some glued up cut offs that I get for fire wood and some rejected turnings that I turned into table legs She liked it so much she asked if I could make another one for the other door to replace the crude table. So now they have two small tables.That don't have to be covered.

Very nice table, but what really impresses me is it's made from firewood. I would have never thought of that.

I get my cutoffs from a cabinet manufacture . I usually can get at least twenty board feet of salvegable pieces per truck load. They are short pieces but some times I get pieces 27 inches long. I glue up the pieces with at least two longer pieces in the glueup, so I can run them through the planer after gluing Most are between 6 and twelve inches long. They cost me a gallon of cider, or a bag of peanuts per truck load. I can heat both the shop and house on a truck load a week..Many years ago I got a truck load of rejected spindles for fire wood. While most were fire wood, I found over fifty that could be used for stand or table legs.
