This past winter as we were cutting firewood I noticed how some of the sticks and logs looked kinda interesting. I thought that we could make little tables and things out of them. Now that it's Spring we started hunting down limbs and stumps we left behind to make these tables.

In this instructable there are no screws or nails used.
This is a simple project to do if you have the skills to use the tools.

Please use appropriate protection while using power tools

Items needed:

wood log
wood sticks
pocket knife
chainsaw
small hand saw
sander
wood glue
polyurethane
paint brush
mineral spirits
drill and bit

Again please use eye protection while using power tools. Wood chips do fly.

Step 1: Finding odd sticks

Search for your odd sticks and pieces to make your unique stool. Cut the stick so that the top and bottom is level.
