Not neander specific but looking to build an outdoor redwood slab table (probably with mostly hand tools though) around 2-3" thick and looking for some advice. Looked into prices and around 2-3x more for a dried piece and was wondering if I could get away with a fresh cut piece to my dimensions especially for outdoor furniture?
Also entering the "dry" season in SF so curious if I can just tarp it when not in use and let it dry outside after being built and spar urethane at the end of the year (or can I do it earlier)? Not too worried about minor checking, can add some butterfly keys later to make it more "rustic" aka Pinterest approved.
Will it work? How bad of an idea is it?
