Concrete Table

I got bored so i decided to spice up this concrete table that i am going to sell. I am going to finish it tomorrow and i will post finished pics. I made it 3" thick and put a grey concrete band around it. I put alot of voids and veins in the grey band where i can go back and fill with blue concrete to match the surface. My wife saw it and is wanting to keep it for our house..... after its been sitting in my way at the shop for a year! Does anyone know where i could get some large tree stumps? i think this would look good if i made a base that was one or two large tree stumps..... or make a concrete base that looks like a tree stump with branches coming out to support it.

    Cyprus works well. Occasionally on drives to the Florida panhandle I will see vendors set up on the side of the road selling the stumps and cross sections for making tables.

    Cypress would be perfect becauce of how wide it gets at the base. I would need a pretty big piece though, This table is pretty heavy. I have been in some stores in Louisiana that have had some cool fixtures made with cypress knees, you can make all kinds of cool stuff with cypress knees.

    I live in Louisiana and have never seen a really large cypress knee to hold up that beauty, but 3 or 4 would do it.
