My table is constructed with three elements. The main components of the top of the table and two benches are two book-matched 2x16's cut from a 12 X 16 out of a 1927 split pea and barley warehouse in Moscow Idaho.
The live edge on the table top was a piece milled from a windfall tree at Bug's home in Occidental that was used as part of the Occidental Yacht Club's Charity Bar for 5 years.
The slab trestle legs on the table and benches were milled from a branch of a 370 year old windfall tree that fell at Salmon Creek School grounds in the storms of 2002. 85% of the gross sale of Salmon Creek wood goes to the schools Environmental Education Fund. You can read the Spirit of Windfall here.
The Incubator Doors were found in a chicken shack in Petaluma. The incubator was invented in Petaluma during her prominence as the Egg Basket of the world. The corner shelf was made with barnwood from a milk-painted barn on Fallon Road at the Marin-Sonoma County Line. The trim was from a Brainerd Jones designed Victorian house in Petaluma.
