Shamrock tables are green wood, right?

A friend from church dropped off these Chinese Elm slabs the other night, wondering if I could make anything out of them. Although I’ve never made a natural-edge project since I hammered two sticks together when I was about 8 years old, I’m willing to give it a go. I’m thinking these would make a nice pair of shamrock-shaped end tables. But I’ll have to wait about 3 years for them to dry thoroughly, so mark your calendars and check back in 2013!
