For table or easel-mounted barrel carvings:
Our Table stands and Easels are sold as separate, non-customized products rather than as options in this design flow.
If you are going to use your barrel head carving as a table top, you will probably want to add a protective transparent top. Our recommended options include 24" to 30" round, 3/8" or 1/2" thick glass tops with polished edges. In commercial settings you may want to consider using tempered glass, though this can be quite expensive. This glass can be ordered from most local glass suppliers. We do supply small round rubber cushioned feet with all tenth barrel head tables for use between the barrel and glass to prevent sliding and scratching.
Note: At this time we do not supply glass tops. The best online deal and selection for round glass table tops we know of is here: http://www.glasstopsdirect.com/glass-round-28.php
Choose how you would like your basic design composed by choosing a carving design template below.

If you selected a template, which includes an outer border (Template A1, B1, C1 or D1), select a border carving here. If you did not choose a template with a border (Templates A2, B2, C2 or D2) but you would like one of these borders, go back to Step 2 and select another template. Or select “none” at bottom for no border carving design.
Choose from two carving styles: "Dished" borders are carved into a smooth recess. "Sculpted" borders are carved into an irregular, chiseled recess (shown below).

Choose how you want your carving finished. Make all your selections below and then move on to the final review and submit page.
Here's our basic philosophy about finishing these beautiful carvings:
- We use only the highest quality materials (stains, sealers and top-coats)
- We recommend the use of transparent stains to enhance the natural beauty of the wood, over the use of solid body stains and paints
- We provide "unfinished" & "partially finished" options for customers who want to provide their own custom painting or finishing

Tenth Barrel Head
This is our most popular configuration, with the barrel head mounted in about 4-5" of staves and 2 hoops. Depending on the cooperage that gives from 1" to 2" of staves showing between the hoops. This provides the carving with a natural border and leaves no mistake its a real barrel. A wood backing is glued and screwed in a circular pocket milled out around the inside of the staves, and the hoops are screwed to the staves to ensure the entire piece remains a rock-solid unit. These really look great hung on a wall, or mounted on one of our taller tables.
Size: Approx. 24" dia. x approx 4" to 5" thick
