Next step is a seal coat of polyurethane. Then more sanding. Followed by a resin pour of black in that routed area. Had to rout out some punky stuff. Just one of the joys of working with raw mesquite slabs. Then finally, a brushed on coat of clear resin. 

Since these three slabs (rounds) were cut sequentially from the same log, I can look forward to more of the same. But, I've identified some grinding accessories to speed up the process. 

These will be the tops for the Limbert tables.

Here's a pic of it as a WIP.20221016_081022.jpg.0144a9a693f7374d99d078bb9b94f109.jpg
