A solid pair, these tables are made from a single live edge white pine slab that was milled by a friend who lived just south of Birch Lake.  The slabs are supported by pole legs of red pine which we salvaged from a slash pile on Potlatch managed land.  The cross member board between the legs is also white pine that was saved from a burn pile by a friend.  

 

Fay Harrington is credited with being the “father” of Deep Portage Conservation Preserve.  “Proceed with determination”, one of Fay’s favorite sayings, is burned into the top of one table.

 

Dorothy Harrington, Fay’s wife, also instrumental in Deep Portage’s formation, is known for maintaining a positive attitude when faced with challenges, brushing off difficulties by saying “Anyway, anyway…” and moving on.  This quote is burned into the other table top.

 

A set of tables is an inadequate homage to this solid couple and the important effects they have had through the exposure of thousands of kids to healthy forests.

 

Finished with oil-based polyurethane.
