I think this is absolutely a chance to repost some stuff. I was on Reddit and didn't see it the first time around :)
It looks great! How did you source/prep the slab? I have some Oregon maple from a friend's Alaskan sawmill that's air-dried which I made a coffee table out of, and the remainder of which is going to be a desk soon.
Sounds awesome can't wait to see pics. Hopefully you'll share.
I sourced the lumber from a little shop here in Idaho. It was rough sawn and thankfully straight enough. I don't have a planer so I just sanded for days until my arm fell off.
