I made a huge coffee table out of a 4000 year old bog oak cookie slab. Turns out that working with a bog oak cookie slab is really tricky, and I had a lot of problems getting it done. This video shows my adventure. Read more about bog oak here: http://www.wood-database.com/bog-oak

Welcome to my woodworking channel. I am passionate about taking the most wonderful woods mother nature created and turning them into beautiful objects of day to day use. This is not a DIY channel about teaching the woodworking craft, showing you new and nifty techniques about how to build wooden objects or anything alike. It’s about celebrating nature’s beauty and providing inspiration for projects of your own.

Thanks for your support!
