I BROKE IT!!!CRY CRY! I had to move it and thought I would take it out and lay it on the grass to get some photo's, but I was not gentle enough and flopped it down too hard.. Repairable but I would have rather not to have broken it! Oak Root ball. 22 by 16 inches 2 inches thick.

What a heartbreaker Bob!!!

How do you repair something like this? Drilled holes in each piece and joined with dowels...or maybe like a biscuit joiner?

I use two part epoxy like for counter top work. works real good. coat both pieces and clamp it up. Super glue works also but I like the epoxy better. Part of where it broke was an old crack I did not see or treat with super glue before. lost a couple of small chips but it will come out pretty good.

Bob, that's a stunner! I'm going to show this to my wife and let her know just how big it is...that way maybe she won't be so upset with all the "small" rocks I have laying around! LOL

I failed to mention how big it is! It is about 12 x 8 inches across the polished face and about 7 inches long. When I go it home and cleaned up I did not have the heart to slab it up and figured it would make a much better specium the way it was so I just contoured polished one end of it. I dug it at Stinking Water pet wood area a few years back. I do think it was a section of a limb and not a tree trunk. It was laying horizonal in the lahar flow in an area where there were upright tree trunks. Good memories digging there but I will not go back, too hard on this old body!! It was Oak by the way. Mostly likely White Oak.

That would make an awesome end table.
