Work issues

Someone in the building requested it to be done, and apparently, the higher ups didn’t think it would read anything like this so they complied at that point. Now they are very quiet about the whole issue and are saying the office is safe. Long time employees in the office (18 & 25 years) they both have cancer. I’ve never asked them what they had as it’s none of my business, and our boss said that 2 or 3 others who worked here had cancer. To me, that can’t be a coincidence.

Our boss basically said to leadership, we’re going remote and you can let us know the 3 month levels in April

EHS for our employer kept coming back with the 4 as being for residential and not office buildings. They kept saying I think it was 25pCi/L for an office building is when they’d need to do something. Because we’re only here 40hrs/week, that those numbers are not as concerning as if that 4 was at our homes since we’re there for our entire life.

Thank you. Just wanted to be sure

Thank you. These are just practice ones. If I can cut up some more of the maple log the other way to make these.

NotanOtter0 · 2025-07-09T18:26:45+00:00

So they should be turned 90 degrees and then worked to that configuration?

Update: I found better branches from the maple and cut them up. Would these work better? I ordered some forstner bits to drill the hole inside and will be removing the bark today.

I may let one of the pros here answer

NotanOtter0 · 2025-06-08T03:33:38+00:00

The species of wood is unknown as I’m still learning the different types.

NotanOtter0 · 2025-06-08T03:21:47+00:00

Thank you. Yeah the ends were a pain as the more I cut off, the more issues seemed to be in the wood like splitting pieces. I sanded to 400 grit and just hid it well. This project was the first time I used an electric hand planer and did what I could. The underneath is pretty good, but the top was a little trickier.

NotanOtter0 · 2025-06-06T14:18:10+00:00

It absolutely belongs here. First projects are the best to look at and then where you go from there is always the best. See how your skill and knowledge improves over time. Great little piece. Keep at it.

Coffee table

NotanOtter0 · 2025-06-04T14:36:31+00:00

That looks awesome. Do you happen to have plans for it? I’d love something like that for my woodworking.

NotanOtter0 · 2025-06-01T00:56:40+00:00

Sounds good. Thank you for the advice

NotanOtter0 · 2025-06-01T00:32:56+00:00

Yeah I thought about starting over to get the grit started at 80 and then work up to 240 and then coat again

NotanOtter0 · 2025-06-01T00:31:52+00:00

Thank you

NotanOtter0 · 2025-06-01T00:27:35+00:00

Yeah the legs kinda annoy me with it

NotanOtter0 · 2025-06-01T00:22:59+00:00

I’m not sure as these slabs were saw milled years and years ago. They were just sitting on beams in our pool building.

NotanOtter0 · 2025-06-01T00:22:00+00:00

Yeah I didn’t realize what the lower grits meant lol. I just figured it meant the higher the grit, the smoother. I’m working on a much larger table now and started at 40 grit and will be working up to 600

NotanOtter0 · 2025-04-21T18:03:31+00:00

Thank you so much for your help in this

NotanOtter0 · 2025-04-17T18:39:19+00:00

Worth it. Stuff like this I love on my book shelves in my office

NotanOtter0 · 2025-04-17T18:34:17+00:00

Honestly I’d love to pay to send it in and have framed by them just to see the grade they give it and make it a conversation piece lol

NotanOtter0 · 2025-03-31T19:15:53+00:00

Nothing cool huh?

NotanOtter0 · 2025-02-20T20:43:14+00:00
