Or at least, a side table. What is the process of doing that? I have basic hand tool for working on some other small project, a small circular saw(that attached to a marble cutter), and an electric planer, what else would i need?

    You can get some wax paint that’s supposed to prevent checking, but it didn’t help with some logs I was drying.

      That can help a lot with linear boards, but if you try to force this thing to dry only through the side grain, it’s almost literally never going to dry.

      The other poster who recommends guiding the checking is onto something, but “rustic” (or something building upon that) is really going to be the only viable aesthetic here.
