A while back I posted pics of some apple wood.
My intent was to turn large bowls, but many suggested that due to specific problems with apple my best bet was to cut them up to make smaller bowls.
I would like to take one of these 2 pieces to a sawmill and have a slab cut maybe 2-3" thick and make an end table.
What problems would I encounter considering the limitations of apple?
The piece on the left is ~20x15". On the right ~21x20".
If making a tabletop was doable which piece would you have sliced?
Both are sealed with amber shellac I bought by mistake. That's all I had on hand that I did not want for now.
