I just finished the second to last stage of my plywood tree project, There was a man who made a tree, just so he could chop it down, milling it back to a standard sheet of 2′ x 4′ plywood.

After chopping the tree down, I ripped the trunk into approximately 6″ x 3/4″ slabs, and then glued them up into a sheet of plywood. And then I dropped the poor fellow on top of his stump, just in time for a Tornado Watch! Visions of me plywood in bits all over Kansas…

See some photos of the milling process here.

And thanks to Karen Philippi for the great pics!
