My parents just cut down an old oak tree. What should they do with all this wood? Best answer gets 1000 sats 😂

oak wood is gold—my neighbor just made cutting boards from a maple and they turned out beautiful. is your parents thinking furniture or firewood?

Chop it up and let it Season, then use it for firewood or sell some

😱 why did they cut it up into small rounds? could've got some boards out of it. the ones that look like the centre has rotted you can take a slice, clean all the rot back to bare timber, fill it with some coloured epoxy and you've a nice side table.

I asked the same… the tree cutters also just threw it down n the street for the city to pick up and haul away. There has got to be some good use for it

Ouch, pun game stronger than the solutions. You got leftover firewood at your parents' place then, or are you workshopping ideas?

Turn them into oak slabs for a big round table, host a Barbecue, smoke the meat with the scraps, and carve a Bitcoin seed phrase into the underside of the table. Family heirloom + cold storage in one

loads of uses, chopping boards, tables, serving platters, cheese boards, shelves, display mounts, turn it if you've a lathe, carving. epoxy tables are fun, I do those myself. just make sure its very dry though. oak can get a lot.of shakes as it dries. surface cracks that aren't really problems, but don't look great if you're doing fine work
