You're swamped with fine timber then! I do like the idea of using a large pine/fir ring for a bedside table table top, maybe some legs carved from some smaller diameter pine so it sits quite low, then treating it all with danish oil or something similar to bring out the grain, I have the image in my head of exactly how i'd like it to look!

I have a small ring of pine from a storm felled tree I found twos years ago, took me quite a while to carry it back home aha it happily lives by my window now, just to remind me of the natural world when surrounded by brick, plaster, cables, and noise of modern living!
