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?

  • By electric planer, do you mean a handheld planer, or a pass through planer? If you mean the pass through kind, then that’s probably fine, but you might have a problem with it taking chunks off the edges, due to the orientation of the grain.

    If you are just doing a single slab, building and setting up a router sled is more work than doing it with a hand plane, manual or electric. So I would go that route if possible.

    That being said, it’s going to crack as it dries unless you cut it before it starts shrinking.
