I really am stumped on this one. Architectect has designed a 1/2″ glass topped table supported by 6 stumpy cedar things. The cut offs from the cedar things are to be glued to the table top somehow, so they’re like sticking through it. The plan is to drill holes in the flattened, cut to length stumps, epoxy 3/8″ threaded rods in the holes, drill holes in the floor, stick the bolts through and crank ’em down and sit the glass top of them, then stick on the cut offs. I’ve done something similar, but not quite the same, and there’s the rub. I’ve got a laser, I think I’ll wrap tape around the wood at the cut line, sketch a line around the stump and cut all the way around with a Fein cut off saw. Some of the stumps are too thick for the Fein to cut all the way through, so I’d have to finish with a Japaneses pull saw. Ok, simple in theory,but…according to my little pea brain… I’m going to have make the bottoms of each stump a little concave for a nice tight fit to the floor. This might change the height of the stumps as they’re cranked down, which could affect the levelitude of the top. Or worse, make it rock… Then, I’ve got one, and only shot at cutting off the tops nice and smoothly, so I’m looking for any opinions, advice, health warnings, or whatever you got. Thanks, and I will post pics…
