In a couple days, I’ll be the proud new owner of a big-ass maple mantle and 22 square feet of olive, which I’ve never worked with before
I’m tossing around the idea of using the olive for a table top, but that’s far from certain, as I haven’t seen any of it in person yet.
What experience do y’all have with olive and what do you recommend?
I havn’t worked with it, but i bet a table would be stunning.
I’m glad you agree. I’m just curious what it will be like working with a wood that’s got a ~2700 janka hardness.
IF this project ever actually comes to fruition, I’m considering just burnishing as a finish, but that’s waaaaaayyyyyy far off
