Before and After: Parota Table Top by Tassajara designs

Here is a "before" shot of the large Parota slab right after it arrived from our sawmill in Mexico.
We say it time and time again-You just can't judge a slab by its unsurfaced appearance!




Here is the same 10 foot long x roughly 40 inch wide Parota slab right out of the Spray Booth over at Tassajara Designs.




Both sides flattened on a wide belt sander, hand sanded to 320 grit, edges shaped, 2 coats tung oil, and a few coats of polyurethane top coat to finish it off.

This slab will be matched with a custom anodized metal base in the next few weeks.
We will update the post with pictures of the completed project once we receive them.
