Tree stumps are usually a hazard in your backyard for several reasons. When they rot they can attract bugs and pests that can end up in your home or ruining the vegetation around them. When they dry out, they can become a fire hazard. And thirdly, if they are only couple of inches tall, they can be a tripping hazard.
Tree stumps are best removed professionally, since services such as G’s Friendly Tree Service have the equipment necessary to grind them below ground level so the lawn will grow back properly or to be able to pave the area without risking growth of new shoots.
You can have your tree stumps sawn off and then you can turn them into beautiful and unique furniture.
Make sure the stump has no bugs, or is treated if it does. Wearing gloves, debark it, and then sand the stump in circular motion. You can also sand the top and bottom if you like.
A thick beveled glass makes for a good table top that will show off your one-of-a-kind stump table base. |
