And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

I'm currently working (fitfully) on a table very similar to that one. I'm on board with the rustic look.
Avoid the amateur status look: wrap the product with a circumfrential steel hoop, screw-tightened. And oil it well, followed by a few coats of spar varnish.
Unless you want a collection of small end tables instead of one big one.
Nice. Post pic when done

I think you mean to gain the amateur status look use a steel hoop. Unless of course you're going foe that Ox cart wheel look then by all means.
