This Bunya Pine flitch has been lying in front of my shed since just before Christmas waiting for me to get to work on it. I knew I was going to make an outdoor table but wasnt 100 how (I had ideas) and also what to make the seats out of. Thats what held the project up. The Bunya Pine flitch was felled locally as the tree was already dead - I believe you cant legally fell a healthy Bunya. It was given to me as it was about to go into the fire! \rbrI forgot to show what I was using on the angle grinder to clean up the timber, it was a Turbo Plane disc from Arbortech - its an awesome but very messy tool. On that note - after making all that mess I blew out all the work surfaces with my petrol blower, this is not ideal inside but I have a very large door at the front, an industrial fan and I left the workshop for a couple of hours afterwards. It does a great job and very fast at cleaning up.\rbrThe steel bands were put around the flitch in the hope to stop any splitting, I will have to see how that goes as it may still shrink a little even though there wasnt much moisture in there. If it does then I can adjust the bands or even drive a wedge in underneath. I think it should work out. :)\rbr\rbrI hope you enjoy the video and as always Im happy to answer any questions.
